THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL! And Sheikh Nazim is showing his godly humility so nicely. May God bless him and also the former Pope Ratzinger. This is a true testament to the unity of God, and the unity of all religions. It is such a pity to see moronic comments here which defile this holy unity. Feigning believers who think they can decide whose path to God is the better one... May God have mercy on your harsh hearts and may he take away the darkness from your souls so that you can realize truth. Amen.
TheChurchAuthentic Maybe not. Many who name themselves 'Christian" are fighting against Jesus and his Church, the Holy Catholic Church (Kutsal Katolik Kilisesi).+++
The imam said, "Good one, good one, her şey (everything)... Alman (the German)." This is a touching video showing a very human side of the two religious leaders.

The Shaykh is displaying the traits of a true Muslim..hospitable,sincere and warm. Our Prophet SAW good nature attracted the disbelievers and they gave him a chance to share about ISLAM.
What the hell? So not true. After Mecca, Muhammad was rejected in Medina by both Pagans and Jews. He committed genocide and expulsion of the Jewish people then he conquested the Pagans and to convert or recieve unaliving. Stop the supremacist Taqiya lies!
His throne doth extend Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in guarding And preserving them, For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory)." (This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat al-Kursi)
@slashay100 Yes, you are right! I am very respected by the fact that one young Muslim kissed the hand of the pope! This is an act of respect and it shows that who kisses the hand has a very high degree of spirituality just as Christ washed his students' feet. Jesus said: If you want to be the master- you have to be the servant! If I meet an old wise Muslim I'll kiss his hand, too! I have no problem with such prejudices...
I like this video clip a lot; it is so informal, without all the pompous ceremonies. One sees two brothers (who have in common the belief of one father Abraham and one only God), leaders of different religions, just sharing.
@BeyondExistance i did study in school, together with philosophy and other world religions, apart of having studied three years of christian theology.I asked myself if i wanted to ever switch my faith to budhism, judaism, hinduism, jainism or even islam, but i knew that deep inside, my mind and soul belonged to christ and his pure and beautiful for all mankind. I think Christianity leads people to a beautiful level of spirituality and self-fullfillement, thus i do invite you to study it as well
"Kissing" an elder's hand is an acceptable show of respect, nothing more, nothing less (involves tapping the lip, forehead and chin on the front of the hand). It's CULTURE. It has nothing to do with religion. I like the pope and the imam. I respect all religions that promotes peace and good morals.
salam - shalom, peace be upon you- Friede sei mit Dir : Good Intentions-good thinking (Positive)-Good speech and good action, personal and divine perfection...
@hyderabdul Qur'an (5:51) - "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people." Qur'an (5:80) - "You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide."
Brother Pope is a nice person who want to create Harmony between Muslim and Community of other religion I am Muslim ,I respect the Pope But some infidels from their religion do not respect the Muslim Scholars
I can't believe some of the hateful comments for this videos. Blabbing about hypocrites, whose religion is right or wrong and all that rot. But here, we have two religious leaders who can be courteous and kind to one another. You don't have to belong to X, Y or Z or even have some religious belief just to be a decent human being. There's no excuse for being a jerk.
feesabhillilah first of all i would like to say to all you dual bands aka (deobands) and you wobblers aka (wahabis). you say that us guys are grave worshipers, you say why we love all christianity, and jews guess what we do we are the most loving people in TRUE ISLAAM they are our christian brothers who we should respect ok sometimes they are lost but they do have good generous hearts which can be enlightened but you guys are lost best thing let god be the judge.
@hyderabdul Qur'an (3:118) - "O you who believe! do not take for intimate friends from among others than your own people, they do not fall short of inflicting loss upon you; they love what distresses you; vehement hatred has already appeared from out of their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater still; indeed, We have made the communications clear to you, if you will understand."
It's the same creator-supreme power that you pray to, no matter what you are. Only god know who is closer to him. nothing wrong in praying for eachother, unless you have a hateful heart?(which i hope nobody haves) take care
@BeyondExistance I thought you were more sensitive and underestood that i only have 450 letters to write about such profound and complex subjects. I saw that i was wrong and you are the one who is leaving our conversation and giving up in debating. I could continue arguing my points and why i believe on them, but you seem not to be very interested in talking to me. I understand that and respect your wishes,but i have to say that i also feel sad that you cannot carry on this talk with me. Cheers
@fightermma I am sure the Shaykh himself knows the Quran better than the we here do. I am confident he is being sincere and he knows very well which kind of Jews and Christians to watch out for as referred in the Quran.
@mastfaqir Its your opinion, and I fully respect that, my brother! You must realize that we are nothing! We can't do anything! We are powerless! There is a GREAT POWER, and HE can sort out everything! The GREAT POWER, has Ordered to deal Shar with Ihsan! If Pope was under Sharia, then its the business of Sharia to deal with him, but he isn't! Now, Pope is a responsible title! I won't even mention his apologize on the matter! But the best Muslim is the one who wards off the Shar, with Ihsan!
@Selvans100 Dear in the Bible most of the verses ,there are many verses which mentioned about the arrival of the Mohammed(peace be upon him),why these verses being deleted from BIBLE.The Jesus(Hazrat Essa Peace be upon him) had one book "Bible " ,why the bible is being in 4 books ,this is the Question?
Catechism of The Catolich Church: 841. The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."
In Bible Book Samuel 2 ,6th Chapter Verse no 23 Mentioned that "That Saoul daughter from till death they did not had childrens" And now in the same Book Chapter no 21 Verse number 8 mentioned that She had 5 childrens. Why there have many discrepancies I\
@mastfaqir No! Yazeed and Pope are two different things! I even don't need his prayers, but if I ask him to pray for me, as a token of respect, to the entire community he represents, is a symbol of harmony and goodwill! Like I said, Dua is that of Sadiqeen, Zahideen, Mukhliseen, Mutaqeen... :) Don't confuse yourself that much brother! :)
@mastfaqir Its a symbolic respect to Ahle Kitaab! Muslims and non-Muslims can live together in harmony and peace without insulting and attacking each other. It signifies the point that their is no point in spreading turmoil among the people of different faiths! Its also a historical vision. Things were never as they are today. Hope this helps!
My bible comes from the Textus Receptus Just to clarify theirs comes from the vulgate and alexandrian text which is egypt. Too bad you don't know more about bible history but or beliefs are different so I am not going to debate a mute point that leads no where.
@Multi0703 : I do not claim to be a scholar ... in fact i am far a way from being one. But i know enough about islam and other religions especially the original christianity that i am in peace and i try my best to share with brothers and sisters in humanity my understanding and my experience to hopefully we all can know the only true one God. one thing that most christians dont know about muslims is that we truly believe in and love Jesus and his mother may blessings of God be on them. peace.
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. "Allah! There is no god but He - the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep. His are all things In the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede In His presence except As he permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind them. Nor shall they compass Aught of his knowledge Except as He willeth.
@mastfaqir That gustaakh king of kufaar is the representative of all the Christian Ahle Kitaab. All Christians don't insult that way. His statement was irresponsible one. In many parts of the world, Muslims and Christians live in peace and harmony, so the best way to negate the reason behind his statement is what you see in the above video. Don't see him as a irresponsible person who gave that statement but the representative of Christianity! Now, Shar has been dealt with Ehsan. Isn't it good?
That is not prayer its supplication /Dua Prayer is when you prostrate like Jesus and Muhammed did . I agree with some what but we only judge by what is apparent This guy Nazim from Cyprus is a Sufi and they are known to Innovate in the religion of Islam , But Islam is free from what they associate !
@mastfaqir My brother! :) Hazrat Umar(ra) came to attack the Prophet(saw), but Allah blessed him and converted to Islam. Hazrat Khalid bin Wali(ra) fought against Islam, but when Allah but turned out to be a great general of Muslim Army!! So, better pray for Hidaayah! He has his debt with Allah! Its his ignorance that doesn't let him see!
Dear Unknown First of all i am very impressed with your pious word,(abuse) Second is that I mentioned the name of Mohammed for your understanding. The arrival of the last prophet was mentioned in Bible and other previous books Jesus had on one book now why you had 4 books Why???This bible is not in correct shape
@mastfaqir As a Chisti Qadri, I should be able to control my Batin, and force it to the best Ihsan! Your superior character is a defeat to your extreme opponent with lower character, especially if the parties are two communities! Its defeat to the entire community. It makes your opponents think, and makes you better in the sight of Allah! Sabireen, Saadiqeen, Mutaqeen, Saleheen.... are the people of who are close to Allah. It should be out strong individual belief that, To Allah we all return!
@Multi0703 : Brother Multi, you need not be sorry. you need to wake up and start learning the deen of "taoheed". may allah lead all of us to his straight path. thanks for feeling sorry for me and for all muslims; i feel sorry for myself too. salam ...
@Multi0703 : to prove to you that muslims are people of faith and evidence. please check this fact: Quran contains "ZERO" reference to sword. Bible contains MORE THAN "200" references to sword. So i dont know what you are taking about here? if you have time please read just one chapter of the quran, chapter 19. it is called chapter of Mary, may blessings of god be upon her. peace.
Everyone human has right to deserve respect regardless of his religion especially one who is revered.
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL! And Sheikh Nazim is showing his godly humility so nicely. May God bless him and also the former Pope Ratzinger. This is a true testament to the unity of God, and the unity of all religions.
It is such a pity to see moronic comments here which defile this holy unity. Feigning believers who think they can decide whose path to God is the better one... May God have mercy on your harsh hearts and may he take away the darkness from your souls so that you can realize truth. Amen.
I believe devout Muslims will enter the kingdom of God before many who name themselves 'Christian'.

I'm Catholic but seriously, take a chill pill and be a bit more charitable.
God Bless Them Both.
This is Sheikh Nazim Al-Haqqani, a great sufi master from Naqshabandi Order.
Aha....really....are sure he is so Sufi. ? Look at the Muslim woman beside him... She's not wearing scarf properly !!!
May God be with you always, my brother--"good one, good one"
I like this type of unity. After all we are all human

That's cute...the Muslim leader asked the Pope to pray for him because he is so old. The Pope said, "I am also old"...

I'm with the pope on this one--"May God bless all my Muslim brothers and sisters."

who do you support/root for the red team or the blue?

I wish fervently that in the will of God Muslim extremism would fade away. There are some wonderful people in Islam.
meeting of brothers. sufi and christian
Ne güzel! İkisi kucaklıyorlar.
Cuando los hombres se ven el corazón .
@Asemahdi3 I have a sufi muslim friend. He does what muslims do. He fast, pray 5 times etc.
Of course Sufis are practising Muslims. But surely there are fake deviant Sufis.
@mastfaqir Shariat ba Tariqat is Islam, and I fully agree with it!!
Can anyone hear what the Pope is saying from @0:27 - 0:30? ".......brothers and sisters of the Muslim faith. God bless you too."
Allahuekber☝️
@mastfaqir I say we should pray him! Asking someone to pray for us is good! Prayer is the duty of believers of Allah! :)
@srizshaik... Is tradional more important to u than religion?
Indeed there is no much difference between Chrisitans and Suffism
It's the same creator-supreme power that you pray to, no matter what you are.
Only god know who is closer to him.
nothing wrong in praying for eachother, unless you have a hateful heart?(which i hope nobody haves)
take care
Wooah SubhannaAllah!
Ulamas Are Inheritors of The Prophet SWA...And Prophet Muhammad SWA Came As A Mercy For The WHOLE UNIVERSE!!
