I see a sincere gentleman with a huge heart. May Allah guide him and all of us to the straight path inshallah.
Ameen. He is very polite and I do like that about him, regardless of what I said in my other comments.
maybe allah has sealed his heart. or he might have disease in his heart, and allah will increase that disease.
[2.6] Surely those who disbelieve, it being alike to them whether you warn them, or do not warn them, will not believe.
[2.7] Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing and there is a covering over their eyes, and there is a great punishment for them.
[2.8] And there are some people who say: We believe in Allah and the last day; and they are not at all believers.
[2.9] They desire to deceive Allah and those who believe, and they deceive only themselves and they do not perceive.
[2.10] There is a disease in their hearts, so Allah added to their disease and they shall have a painful chastisement because they lied.

there's some truth abt Islam on what he said, but he said at the end that all faith lead to a good afterlife, that is simply wrong, to have a good afterlife is to follow the religion of Islam, not all faith lead to heaven, you cant expect to believe in a god of war like ares and then have a good afterlife. hope Allah guided him and makes him one of the people of jannah.

Very impressive he proof that understanding the concept of religion is all about respect, Islam is true religion and respecting all religion should be everyone's belief, what a immersive, open mind and kind heart spoken person MASHALLAH ...
Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all). Quran 4:34

@@tomthumb3880 You didn't get my point. I am saying if the death of Christ is required for salvation then he as a "divine" in flesh should die or else the whole crucifixion doesn't count as redemption because a finite 'created' flesh died and not the divine. Therefore Christ didn't really die according to your own belief, that's why the redemption doesn't count too
Wow! This has to be one of the most peaceful and beautiful interview, ever.
In the words of Dutch scholar, Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje, a professor of the Arabic language in the University of Leiden, Holland and a pioneer in the scientific study of Islam:
“The league of nations founded by the Prophet of Islam put the principle of international unity and human brotherhood on such universal foundations as to show candle to other nations”. He continues: “The fact is that no nation of the world can show a parallel to what Islam has done toward the realization of the idea of the league of Nations”.

Thankyou Dr Esposito and Soraya Salam for the discussion and clear explanation.
In the "Islam and the West" speech, King Charles lll talked about the misunderstanding in the west about Islam.
"If there is much misunderstanding in the West about the nature of Islam, there is also much ignorance about the debt our own culture and civilisation owe to the Islamic world. It is a failure which stems, I think, from the straitjacket of history which we have inherited. The medieval Islamic world, from Central Asia to the shores of the Atlantic, was a world where scholars and men of learning flourished. But because we have tended to see Islam as the enemy of the West, as an alien culture, society and system of belief, we have tended to ignore or erase its great relevance to our own history."
On how Christianity can learn from Islam, he says: "Islam can teach us today a way of understanding and living in the world which Christianity itself is the poorer for having lost. At the heart of Islam is its preservation of an integral view of the Universe."
He added that Islam refuses to "separate man and nature, religion and science, mind and matter, and has preserved a metaphysical and unified view of ourselves and the world around us."
does sharia not say to stone adulterers to death? is that misunderstood?
Leo Tolstoy too made very favourable statements about Islam to the extent that some people say he became a Muslim towards the end of his life.

Dr. John Esposito's belief and sentiment about what could possibly happen in the hereafter after we die resonate exquisitely with what Quran tells us about the Judgement Day. As he said-
*"I think that there is an afterlife, and I think that, people who lead a good life, whatever their faith or no faith, if they lead a good life, I think they will be at peace".*
*Quran (**21:47**) وَنَضَعُ الۡمَوَازِيۡنَ الۡقِسۡطَ لِيَوۡمِ الۡقِيٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظۡلَمُ نَـفۡسٌ شَيۡـئًـا ؕ وَاِنۡ كَانَ مِثۡقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنۡ خَرۡدَلٍ اَتَيۡنَا بِهَا ؕ وَكَفٰى بِنَا حٰسِبِيۡنَ*
*"We shall set up just scales on the Day of Resurrection so that none will be wronged in the least. (We shall bring forth the acts of everyone), even if it be the weight of a grain of mustard seed. We shall suffice as Reckoners".*
*Quran (2:281) وَٱتَّقُوا۟ يَوْمًۭا تُرْجَعُونَ فِيهِ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ*
*"And have fear of the Day when you shall return to Allah, and every human being shall be fully repaid for whatever (good or evil) he has done, and none shall be wronged".*
Peace and Blessings
Esposito is great. I favour religion-free monotheism to 'traditional' religious theism for various reasons, but I like the way the practise of Islam has evolved in the United States. We are more tolerant, open-minded, and intellectually charitable than our counterparts elsewhere.

Elon Musk gave brief remarks, praising Islam at the 2023 World Government Summit
Musk explained, "While Rome was falling, Islam was rising, so you had a caliphate doing well while Rome was doing terribly. And that ended up being a source of preservation of knowledge and many scientific advancements."
"So I think we need to be a little conscious of being too much of a single civilization because if we are too much of a single civilization, then the whole thing may collapse," he continued.
Than you mr dear friend telling all this to non believers.regards from Sydney
I couldn't skip even a single second of this interview, Very *Interesting* Interview!!
Taking a world religions class in the 11th grade literally changed my life. What a privilege to have this in a public school. I had an amazing teacher.
Did they teach you all religions are equal or Single Messiah Single Holy Book is superior to other religions?
Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity!
*what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Son of God are 2 titles one referring to the Word of God and one referring to creation (humans, angels, demons)
Hebr 1,2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, *by whom also he made the worlds;*
as everyone can see the term Son of God refers to the Word of God = god himself! For through that God created the worlds! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
In The Outline of History, professor H.G. Wells wrote regarding a major proof of the prophethood of the Prophet Muhammad
“Because those who knew Muhammad best believed in him the most… Muhammad was no impostor at any rate…there can be no denying that Islam possesses many fine and noble attributes… They created a society more free from widespread cruelty and social oppression than any society had ever been in the world before.”
Much respect for the Professor ❤
Islam is the best religion in the earth and it increases and prosperity in the world and that's why many people are attracted towards it when they study the Islam rather than listening the media who is doing a propaganda to make a negative aspects of a religion that is Muslim or Islam and if the one who read Islam thoroughly get the idea that Islam is the best religion in the Earth which increase prosperity and giving the equality among all the people rather than focusing on cast or religion 😊
Finally after more than 20 years only spelling his name, I can see and hear Esposito speak. It endures. It even better than reading his books.
What a beautiful conversation, Ma Sha Allah.

May Allah SWT guide his heart. If a person like him doesn't accept Islam it will be very disappointed. Allah has guided he bit he has to take final step. Hope he will take that step before his final day. In shaa Allah
That would be the best useful information for me. You must just keep uploading....
I listened to John in the 80'. He is awsome and defender of Islam.
He seems like such a nice man. I hope he accepts the truth before his end...
That is not up to him. According to the made up Quran, it is Allah who determines whether you will become a muslim or not.
Inshallah. I sincerely hope he does. I have Dr. Esposito’s history of Islam (published by Oxford University Press) right now on my bookshelf. At this current moment, I would say that he is a perennialist, but I pray that Allah gives him the courage to declare that Islam is the truth. Inshallah.

So emotional and eye opening
Islam is a set of ideas. You're allowed to question and criticise ideas. So you're allowed to question and criticise Islam. Islam is the only religion with a "phobia" that it's claimed for its own. Nobody yells "Christianophobia" or "Mormonphobia".
This guy is an american, but ironically american mainstream media has no courage to invite him for the talk.
