- Both Catholic and Islamic thought draw from a common Ancient Philosophical tradition, interpreted during the Middle Ages. The Common Heritage Series is part of a new partnership between Zaytuna College and the Dominican School of Philosophy & Theology which brings faculty and students together in exploration of this shared heritage. Renovatio, a co-sponsor of these events, published "Medina and Athena: Restoring a Lost Legacy" by Hamza Yusuf in its Spring 2019 issue.

I’ve been watching these videos since I was 14. I’m turning 22. His videos never get old.
“People want everything without the pain” what a nice words masha allah
Lucky enough to be born in the same era as Shaykh Hamza Yusuf (Y)
@Vietnam California, yeah? Nope.
@Vietnam California, yeah? Why should I bother? Quranists refute themselves.
@Vietnam California, yeah? Interesting, tell me more yaa Shaykh ul Islam
Hamza yusuf is a Great speaker..
And a lovely representative for Islam.. no words can describe that man..
What he said about Arabic and grammar is true. I have noticed when Chinese try to learn English, they carry a dictionary and obsessed with vocabulary. On the other hand when arabs try to learn English they’re obsessed with English grammar.
did he say that in the lecture or something you noticed?
I guess it makes sense. Chinese being a pictorial language with thousands of individual words needing to be memorised.
whilst Arabic being a derivative language where grammar can be used to understand and derive the words.
and English being something in the middle due to hodge podge of other old languages.
The talk starts at 11:34
Please Zaytuna admin, try not to have lengthy meandering introductions by multiple people. We’re all here to listen to the main speaker.
Thank you for the timestamp and the insightful suggestion!
@@Qasibr You just thanked yourself

It's for the context.

Jazakallahu khair....
MashaAllah great work
FANTASTIC, Great lecture, bravo
I love those people they are sooo kind May Allah Bless them All
Sheikh Hamza Yusuf is one of the best exegete in world. May Allah protect his intellect and health.
Just seeing its notification, im Happy !
Is due to Hamaza Yussuf that i will oneday want to visit the USA if i had the chance.
Abdul
Do not do visit for that reason. You do not see these things in mainstream media USA
@@786swe ??????
Same but the first reply is right, mainstream America is nothing like this
Great
Is there a video of the mentioned talk given later by Andrew Hicks - "Listener's Guide to the Cosmos"?
I've been an ardent admirer of Shaikh Hamza and have greatly benefited from his lectures. May Allah increase his knowledge.
But I am perplexed at what I heard in this lecture, where he was seen praising the Hindu Varna system also called the jaati system (Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra). In this system, the first 3 are said to be the superior and the last one as highly inferior. Over centuries, the higher classes have oppressed the Shudras and continue to do it till day. Shudras have been never allowed to live in common residential areas where people of the other 3 castes live. They have been deprived of education and claiming an equal social status. They are not allowed in temples. The Universities in the US have begun the recognise caste based discrimination on Campuses.
Also, when Islam came to the Sub-continent, the Shudras, seeing the equality of Islam, converted in hordes. In fact, it is said that over 80% of Muslims in the Indian Subcontinent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) are Hindu converts. Of which over 90% are Hindu Shudras.
Shaikh Hamza seems to consider the Varna System as a good Social order, when there's clear historical evidence that this system has single-handedly oppressed and discriminated billions of lives over several centuries and continues to, unabated.
I hope Shaikh Hamza reflects on his understanding of the Hindu Varna System.
What is the name of the book and author Dr. Yusuf refers to at the 36:50 minute mark in reference to What is Knowledge? He does this as he picks up a book most likely authored by that person as the author.
Prolegomena to the Metaphysics of Islam: An Exposition of the Fundamental Elements of the Worldview of Islam
Book by Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas
@@jacquelyn4875 can we have a discussion about this book,do you have instagram or twitter?
💎
MasyAllah great speach.
Do seikh hamzah yusuf learn philosophy before Muslim?
Junaid. His father was a professor. His mother was highly educated as well.
I am scared, my comment keeps getting deleted automatically by

Just want to mention that Al Farabi wasn't arabic philosopher...he was a Muslim philosopher
Philosophy was hellenic tradition...it's almost dead in the Islamic world bcz of the western influence
Malahat his names is Abu Nasir Alfarabi from Syria
@@banderalthaqil4194 no his family name is Al-Tarkani..he has turkish origin from central asia...most of our ancestors adopted persian names and wrote in persian
If you don’t have a philosophy then you’ll get philosophised by others who have philosophy.
When Sheikh Hamza acknowledged dr Hicks...was he referring to Stephen Hicks???
Assalamu Alaykum, why did the Shaikh conclude the lecture with a Perennialistic statement, whereas in many other writings and lectures he said that previous traditions have been abrogated by the Qur'an and that salvation is obtainable only by followinf the Path of Muhammad (Peace be upon him) wich is in fact the only path through which it's possibile to state in it's pureness the Tawhid?
haha, i saw the video of emir Stein 30minutes ago, in fact you did a little mistake, his name is "Michael & not Philipe"
How is Zaytuna College doing?
Anyone knows the name of the late arabian philosopher/metaphysician he refered to?
so beautifully briefly described all the topics I really like shaikh Hamzayusuf I just wanna question that when you sir talking about Indian revolution why you are not talking about MOHAMMAD BIN QASIM coz he is the one who gave india muslims heritage and tradition..if you have any video about this kindly give me link I love to watch...and jazak Allah khyr for beautiful videos and lectures....🙏🙏
Nida Hashmi I’m from south India and Muslims were here since the days of our prophet. The oldest mosque in the subcontinent is in Kerala. That mosque was built during the lifetime of our prophet. And Mohammad Bin Qassim was sent to India by the ummayads because a local ruler in India had harassed some local Muslims in the region. So Muslims were there before.
at 19:54 who /what is he saying that kennedy is quoting?
Aeschylus
i'm sorry but the camera shake is really scary for my brain
Oh Allah curse Abu Bakr Umar and Aisha for killing your beloved prophet Muhammad and Fatima and stealing fadaq and Aisha for fighting imam Ali. Oh Allah curse Hamza Yusuf. #Ameen - Musa aka Aston Walker Birmingham UK

Medinah and Athena?
This is ( Indian-Greek and Athena)
Madinah represents SALAF. Salaf who had nothing to do with all these terminologies and non islamic perspective.
The Prophet (saw) said, “Seek knowledge, even if it be in China." What do you think that this means? Do you imagine that a man who has sat at the feet of renowned scholars such as Shaykh Murabit Al Hajj isn't aware of and affirmatory of Tawhid? In this world where utter ignorance and materialistic indulgence are jointly celebrated, shall we decry the intellectual roots upon which the Muslims built. I do not find it in the least bit odd that those who start by arguing for what they think of as pristine Islam unsullied by interaction with any other intellectual traditions are the same people who in the end bring us a holy city filled with Mcdonalds and Kentucky Fried Chicken. Materialism is the bedfellow/kindred spirit of protestantism. And protestantism is not just a phenomenon in the Western churches.
@@AbuLaith1963 First this hadith is weak. Second, being rich =/= being materialistic. Many Sahabah were rich such as Uthman ibn Affan and Abdualrahman ibn Awuf. Your view about money is not Islamic. The prophet pbuh brough to us a complete guidelines for this life. Why woould I search for earthly wisdom while I have recieved a heavenly one?
Khalid did you listen to the whole talk? The question you raise about “Medinah and Athena” title of the UA-cam video was answered.
@@Qasibr no, they never listen, they just hunt for points to scream about in order to prove they are superior. The entire content is completely lost on them.
Hamza, you play in clash Royale? I see you in it game, you play with "раб гопника 228"
