    My dear akhi/ukhti, we are living in hard times. Everyday we are being in a trouble with something... Problems can come from Marriage, School, Money, Work, Psychology and some other stuff. And, you see life is so short. Everyday more then 300.000 people are dying on world. Maybe we can be one of them in next hour... Everything could happen. Why I'm telling these? Because, these are so common things and reality of life and I know some solutions for these. The solution for all is improving your Iman. But, how?
    There's a short way for this! We have an Islamic Learning Application which is named Eternal Life Academy :) If you are with me, and if you want to take your guard against whole these say me that "I'm starting today." :)) (It's totally FREE!)

    As a Japanese converted Muslim, I really feel him. My family, especially my mother, is practical Shintoist (Japanese traditional polytheism). After my conversion, she said “my son became a terrorist! ”, I wasn’t waiting for such a strong word, but she never left her birth town speaking zero foreign language so…One day she served me a bacon carbonara then I said “but…this is carbonara” “yeah as you liked when you were kid” “yeah I used to”.
    Years later, alhamdoulillah my mother just got used to me being Muslim and asks me like “when is the next Ramadan ?”.
    I’ve traveled a lot and now am living in an European country as an immigrant. What I see objectively now is Japan is one of the most conservative country, maybe more than China or South Korea. Not only my mother but also my friends were like “so you don’t eat any meat now…?”
    The problem is in my opinion ultimately simple : just ignorance. No mater which Abraham religion, or physical difference whatnot, Japanese people are too introvert and not trying to see another world. I’m NOT trying to force them to understand but to let them be interested in what Islam is or difference is. Basically we all hope the peace.

      ​@@windwind6755 Why does Islam attract more converts than any other religion? One major reason is Islam says: "refugees welcome" to those fleeing failing liberal social and religious institutions.
      Let me explain.
      Liberal secularists promote the idea that their norms for regulating marriage, family, and religion are ideal.
      Nevertheless, statistical data indicates that wherever a society is governed by liberal secular norms, people stop marrying, having children, and practicing religion.
      Put differently, the liberal is fundamentally a hypocrite - despite what he or she might say, no liberal person is actually interested in being part of a liberal marriage, a liberal family, or a liberal religion.
      Matters are different when it comes to Islam.
      Muslims also promote the idea that their norms for regulating marriage, family, and religion are ideal.
      Moreover, statistical data indicates that wherever a society is governed by Islamic norms, it boosts marriage, birth rate, and religious practice.
      Put differently, the Muslim is actually interested in being part of a Muslim marriage, a Muslim family, and the Muslim religion.
      The current era is an era of refugees fleeing from liberalism. Liberal marriage, family, and religion have collapsed.
      As a result, refugees from liberal societies seek marriage partners abroad, and if they practice any type of religion - it is a non-liberal version whose centers are located abroad. Islam is the most obvious choice for them.

      Not really...only for the person praying really.

      In what way exactly? Because it doesn't to me, so clearly this is a matter of perspective...as are most things.
      "his admission that he can only try his best, his admission that he's not any better than us"
      Ah, if only "God" could learn such "humbleness" eh?
      "If you don't know what's the plan laid out for you and how it's gonna unfold, the logical option is to do your best"
      That is the logical option regardless...it is also irrelevant.
      "and that includes praying"
      No...it doesn't...as it is not logical.
      "as laid out in the holy book"
      Much of which is just does not make sense. A GOD would not need praise and granting wishes because you begged your god for a favor makes about as much sense as rubbing a lamp, having a genie come out, and having it grant you 3 wishes in the real world.
      "It's guidance, after all."
      So then how is it that so many non-believers can make it in this world without the "guidance" of any "holy" book and have absolutely no need for "prayer"?

    • @807800
      @807800 Рік тому +5

      ​@@atheistangel007 "In what way exactly?" First, he knows he can only try his best, the end result is not in his control, after all, we can only try. Second, he's not "arrogant" to think he's "good" enough that his prayer alone would be enough.
      "Ah, if only". God is God, the almighty. Not a human like us.
      "That is the logical option regardless...it is also irrelevant.". In Islam, Effort, and prayer go together, as I've described previously.
      "No...it doesn't...as it is not logical." If you try your best, does it guarantee the outcome that you wish for? Can you control the result of your own work? In essence, can you predict the future? You can't, we can only try. People usually call it luck. So in a way, can you be lucky all the time? Of course not, that's why people call it luck. There's a saying, "success is one of the possible outcomes", which means, no matter hard you try, success is still a possibility, it's not a guarantee.
      "Much of which is just does not make sense....having a genie come out". Nope, I don't understand how can think it's the same as having a genie after all that.
      "So then how". What do you mean make it? Do you mean like the high mental health problem? high suicidal rate? being alcoholic? Are drugs dependent?. Let me just tell you about myself. If not for learning about Islam, I can see myself fall into depression, and so do many people that I've known.
      It's kinda funny seeing how I see some people recommend books about philosophy, ritual, hobbies, and things like that, saying it really helped them, things that Islam already fulfilled for us. It's guidance after all. Those without guidance might make it till the end, but the state of their condition would be different than those with guidance.

I hope this things can inspire more youth to embrace islam and be proud of it.

      Its interesting how he talks about the nafs in a very Buddhistic kind of way, as only this ego which is a distraction from the True self etc. We do sometimes use it like this in Islam too but we dpnt only see this aspect because its something that can be weilded for good too, Umar RA spoke to his Nafs in a good way sometimes lol, and in the Muwatta he said I will show these people my Nafs when he went into battle against the odds, other times its only Ego and we have to be careful with it.. But this Imam is only talking about that aspect because I think he kinda was trained to only be aware of the nafs as something to completely detach from, from his time reading Buddhism etc.. Im not saying its wrong just interesting

      Who is Allah?
      Allah is an Arabic term our creator for “q God.” It is a contraction of al-ilah (“the god”; al = “the” / ilah = “god”).
      Although Allah was one of the many deities of the pre-Islamic, polytheistic Arabs, he was apparently considered the highest god in the pagan pantheon and the creator of the world. M0hammad’s tribe, the Quraysh, held Allah (and Allah’s daughters al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat) in high esteem. Indeed, M0hammad’s father was named “Abdullah,” which means “slave of Allah.”
      M0hammad followed an Arab group called the Sabians in proclaiming that Allah is the only true God. In the Qur’an, Allah is described as the creator of the world (41:9-12), who is all-powerful (2:106), all-knowing (33:40), wise (57:1), merciful (1:1), and just (11:45). A characteristic description of Allah is found in Qur’an 59:22-24:
      He is Allah besides Whom there is no god; the Knower of the unseen and the seen; He is the Beneficent, the Merciful. He is Allah, besides Whom there is no god; the King, the Holy, the Giver of peace, the Granter of security, Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the Possessor of every greatness. Glory be to Allah from what they set up (with Him). He is Allah the Creator, the Maker, the Fashioner; His are the most excellent names; whatever is in the heavens and the earth declares His glory; and He is the Mighty, the Wise.
      NOTE:
      1. Allah is not a Trinity (Surah 4:171; Surah 5:73; Surah 5:116);
      2. Allah says he is a Father to no one (Surah 5:18; Surah 19:88-93; Surah 21:26);
      3. Allah says he has no love for unbelievers (Surah 3:32); and
      4. Allah says he is the “best of deceivers” (Surah 3:54; Surah 8:30).
      SCRIPTURES MENTIONING THAT GOD IS A FATHER.
      Let’s take a look at the groundwork that Judaism and Christianity lay regarding God as Father. The God of the Bible is indeed a Father to His people. From both the Old and New Testament Scriptures we see God revealing and describing Himself as a Father. Here are some examples taken from the New International Version. [5]
      1) Deut. 32:6 - "Is this the way you repay the LORD, O foolish and unwise people? Is he not your Father, your Creator, who made you and formed you?
      2) Psalms 2:7 - "I will proclaim the decree of the LORD : He said to me, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father.
      3) Isaiah 63:16 - "But you are our Father, though Abraham does not know us or Israel acknowledge us; you, O LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer from of old is your name.
      4) Matthew 6:9 - "This, then, is how you should pray: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,'"
      5) John 20:17 - "Jesus said, "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet returned to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"
      6) Romans 8:15 - "For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father."
      On the other hand, the Qur'an denies God’s Fatherhood: Surah 5:18 And (both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are the children of Allah and His loved ones." Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins?" Nay, you are but human beings, of those He has created, He forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, and to Him is the return (of all).

      Father Zakaria - Islam Spread by the Sword, deceiving and threats ua-cam.com/video/YP-hI5e_p0I/v-deo.html via @UA-cam
      Can Islam be separated from the SWORD to "properly instruct" and "enforce" its teachings, especially the Sharia Laws?
      How can an archaic, brutal, totalitarian, intolerant, inhumane Sharia Laws be allowed to strike fear and terror into the hearts of its’ slaves of god?
      Is this what a religion of peace is all about? Where is humanity in this totalitarian ideology?

Although we are not an islamic country, our national religion is Islam so there are a huge crowds at Juma'ah prayer, our people and community is so caring with one another, and muslims are a majority so you'll feel more at ease and its so easy to find halal food. Even the non muslims like it here including Japanese. Come visit anytime! You'll be welcomed 👍🏼👍🏼

      ‪Islam Vs. Women ua-cam.com/video/w_qIF1VELj4/v-deo.html via @UA-cam‬
      Women in Islam:
      QUR'AN AND MUHAMMAD SAID ABOUT WOMEN.
      WOMEN ARE DOGS, ASSES, CAMELS AND SEX SLAVES, AND MAJORITY IN HELL ARE WOMEN.
      Quran (4:11) - (Inheritance) "The male shall have the equal of the portion of two females" (see also verse
      4:176 ). In Islam, sexism is mathematically established.
      Quran (2:282) - (Court testimony) "And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not found then a man and two women." Muslim apologists offer creative explanations to explain why Allah felt that a man's testimony in court should be valued twice as highly as a woman's, but studies consistently show that women are actually less likely to tell lies than men, meaning that they make more reliable witnesses.
      Quran (2:228) - "and the men are a degree above them [women] "
      Quran (5:6) - "And if ye are unclean, purify yourselves. And if ye are sick or on a journey, or one of you cometh from the closet, or ye have had contact with women, and ye find not water, then go to clean, high ground and rub your faces and your hands with some of it" Men are to rub dirt on their hands, if there is no water to purify them, following casual contact with a woman (such as shaking hands).
      Quran (24:31) - Women are to lower their gaze around men, so they do not look them in the eye. (To be fair, men are told to do the same thing in the prior verse).
      Quran (2:223) - "Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will..." A man has dominion over his wives' bodies as he does his land. This verse is overtly sexual. There is some dispute as to whether it is referring to the practice of anal intercourse. If this is what Muhammad meant, then it would appear to contradict what he said in Muslim (8:3365) .
      Quran (4:3) - (Wife-to-husband ratio) "Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four" Inequality by numbers.
      Quran (53:27) - "Those who believe not in the Hereafter, name the angels with female names." Angels are sublime beings, and would therefore be male.
      Quran (4:24) and Quran (33:50) - A man is permitted to take women as sex slaves outside of marriage. Note that the verse distinguishes wives from captives ( those whom they right hand possesses).
      Sahih Bukhari (6:301) - "[Muhammad] said, 'Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?' They replied in the affirmative. He said, 'This is the deficiency in her intelligence.' "
      Sahih Bukhari (6:301) - continued - "[Muhammad said] 'Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?' The women replied in the affirmative. He said, 'This is the deficiency in her religion.'" Allah has made women deficient in the practice of their religion as well, by giving them menstrual cycles.
      Sahih Bukhari (2:28) & Sahih Bukhari (54:464 ) - Women comprise the majority of Hell's occupants. This is important because the only women in heaven mentioned explicitly by Muhammad are the virgins who serve the sexual desires of men.
      (A weak Hadith, Kanz al-`ummal , 22:10, even suggests that 99% of women go to Hell).
      Sahih Muslim (4:1039) - "A'isha said [to Muhammad]: ' You have made us equal to the dogs and the asses' " These are the words of Muhammad's favorite wife, complaining of the role assigned to women under Islam.
      Abu Dawud (2:704) - "...the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: When one of you prays without a sutrah, a dog, an ass, a pig, a Jew, a Magian, and a woman cut off his prayer, but it will suffice if they pass in front of him at a distance of over a stone's throw."
      Abu Dawud (2155) - Women are compared to slaves and camels with regard to the "evil" in them.
      Tabari Vol 9, Number 1754 - "Treat women well, for they are [like] domestic animals with you and do not possess anything for themselves." From Muhammad's 'Farewell Sermon'.
