Aoa, Sir I have a good idea about podcast. I was saying that seeing nature is very fascinating. So, if you do podcasts by setting your apparatus on some natural places like some caves or some mountains... On special episodes .. then it will be fascinating.... Wassalam
Women and submission - why we see always more women "submitting", converting to Islam. As a woman I am completely on board with your guest. We have been fooled, pushed out of our role and position, our fitrah that Allah created us fo fulfill. He has the gift of a generational perspective which our young people are sadly missing.
What a beautiful man sheikh ahmed is, his poem made me cry at the end. Brother jalal is a phenomenal listener and well respected man. I just love his accent and his humbleness and respect when he asks his guests questions and especially when he says "Really" touches my heart. I love you for the sake of allah and may allah liberate Palestine and liberate all muslims and thier countries from the oppression and liberate the whole world from Si0nism ameen!
Salaam. Just made a small donation after watching watched this episode. I feel almost indebted to this channel because of the remarkable guests and intellectually stimulating content you release every single week (and I've watched almost every episode!). My donation was my small way of saying thank you and Jazakallah Khair.
Absolutely wonderful. Precious wisdom in the light of Islam. My brothers and sisters it is time to wake up and stand up for the truth to protect our children and our future generations
Thank you for this podcast. Raising children in modern age is full of challanges. It's still the duty for parents to keep learning about deen and teach it to children
It made me tear up when he said the woman is now isolated at home. It's so true. It's such a lonely road if you want to do things right. All odds are against the women
Masha'Allaah, there is something very old school about brother Ahmed Paul Keeler. Lots of wisdom flowing from him, may Allaah Almighty bless him and strengthen us and our youth with wisdom, and free the people of Gaza and all those occupied by others, Ameen. I will be looking forward to reading Gazan Awakening.
32:50 "Plastic toys, they play with it a bit and they get bored and very often you´ll find they break them because there´s nothing in it for their imagination."
Our most challenging times we living in where cell phones have stolen the childhood of children and time of adults. It requires very strong disciplined parents not to give in to buying games and cellular phones. And many of us are failing as we see our kids become under the spell of the cellphones and games. May Allah SWT protect and guide us ... aameen
Yet another amazing episode ,our brother Ahmed reminds myself of my father Calm with knowledge and kindness who aren’t scared to speak the truth but with knowledge know how this life is His poem made me cry as everything he said is true Everything said in this episode resonates with myself as a mother and grandmother also daughter and sister to a brother May Allah bless Dr Ahmed immensely and yourself Brother Jalal Jazakallah Khair for another great episode Sending everyone salams and love and hope for liberation of all oppressed 🤲🏼
What an outstanding and beautiful episode❤ it's a must watch . This guest is just amazing and what he says is full of wisdom and gems to ponder on. I really hope he is bought in again and again. Can anyone direct me to his podcast and if we can see him live .
This needs to be a book and nothing else. If I meet him I will also tell him and I think everybody should push him to explore this topic into a book, In Sha Allah. These are the type of people with an invaluable wealth of experience, knowledge, wisdom and incredible articulation who we needs as Muslims as well as humans in the world to give us timeless guidance which we can also pass onto our future generations In Sha Allah.
“O creator of heavens and the earth! You are my protector in this world and in the Hereafter. Cause me to die a Muslim and join me with the righteous.” (Quran 12:101) 🤍
Jazakallah Khair brothers for this talk.I am the mum of four grown up kids and yes it was exceedingly more difficult to bring up girls than my boys.Eventually they left for Uni and formed their own peer groups as in their words the home environment was "stifling"
Allah huma Barik. Thank you for bringing on this amazing guest. This episode had me in tears subhanAllah. Children are such gift and sacred indeed. May Allah bless all children and make them the coolness of their parents eyes.
Amazing - .The World of Islam Festival that took place in London in 1976. That was a major landmark in my teenage years.❤ Attended it. It remained a key factor to keep me grounded in faith and to love it and be proud. In 1976 islam was showcased beautifully.....
My brother salaam alaikum what a beautiful interview this was. Neither keeler is such a gentleman and philosopher. I lived his poetry in the end. It would be translated into Arabic!!

Asslamu alaykum What an Amazing guest speaker. Please bring him back, I would even say once’s every month. Has Mr Ahmed published any other books that are available now ?
Got a different lens to look at the impact of all such happenings/ideas (capitalism, eradication of idea of gender, mental illness...) in this world. Expecting more of such content...💫💫
JazakAllahu khair for introducing us to gems who are bringing change and challenging the status quo. My request to the thinking Muslim team : Please host Sahil Adeem. He is one of the rare leaders. A sister from India
انا لله وانا اليه راجعون Loved the remark about how this is associated with death, but for him seeing children between 0-7 made him think of this phrase. These kids are mainly with God, they just came from God indeed♡ واليه المصير
I loved this episode, and the speaker. Outside of the childhood stuff though, I wish he suggested some practical things we can implement in our lives to get to a society that's closer to nature and not chasing progress. Most of us born after 1990 don't have the skills to produce food, clothes etc. Even if we did, homesteading is very difficult and unaffordable now. We depend on the state and the market for everything. It's not really possible to break out of it without risking putting our children into poverty in the future.
23:00 "Science and business are central, they´re the only things that count, they´re only which are supported by government, and higher education is under the department of innovation and development; so this is how it is completely established. Merchants dominate the world, this consumer world to actually take over all the aspects of civilization to become a complete world."
Great talk. Despite the romanticized view of past Islamic civilizations as a “perfect world” - it surely was not. It was riddled with depravity like every other society. But we have the Deen and as such, we have the solution to modern malaise.
The problem with despots is that they don’t realize they they have idiotic ideas. Everyone pays them on the back in return for payment so they go down in history as good leaders. If you think a European is capable of fixing this situation, you are a fool. The analysis of how they’ve destroyed human normalities in this podcast is fairly descent, but this man is not in a position to fix any of this.
"Allah has the Most Beautiful Names. So call upon Him by them,....." (Qur’ān 7: 180) SubhanAllah, the blessings of connecting with Qur’ān and Sunnah is that Allah Al Jabbar (The Compeller, The Restorer ) fixes ,repairs and mend all the neglects and traumas of the childhood. Islamic knowledge teaches us that Allaah Al Latif Al Khabeer ( The Most Subtle, All-Aware) knows everything in His creation. Learn about the beautiful Names of Allah and call unto Him ..
Maybe this will help with understanding his "submission" comment. The concept of power and control being fully good (in colonialism for example) or fully evil (feminist ideology for example) and the western perpetuated epidemic of violence against women sully the concept of "submission". (And if you're thinking there is definitely violence against women among Muslims, it's important to note violence against women in Muslim countries made a pop-culture comeback thanks to the physical and intellectual assaults of the white man's conquest of the world). But in Islam, the entire goal of existence is submission, man or woman, and it's also the entire identity of a Muslim (someone who submits to the one and only Divine and nothing else), but women tend to be less ego-driven than men. In Islam there's a giant distinction between obedience of a wife to a husband, and submission. When a wife obeys the husband, as Allah tells her to do, she does so only because 1) Allah said so, 2) Allah placed the burden of responsibility for her entire life on the man that is to be her husband. If the man is not fulfilling his financial and physical responsibility of care and protection, he does not have the right to demand obedience. If the woman is financially responsible for the family, she can demand obedience. If the woman is not taken care of by any man, no one has the right to demand her obedience (outside of religious and societal law, which everyone is also obedient to). A family is a tiny council with a president, vice president, and subjects that graduate into chair positions. There's a reason there's not 2 presidents in any successful thing anywhere and it has nothing to do with inherently wanting to abuse the vice president, but everything to do with decision making. If the president fails his duties and the vice president picks them up, the vice president takes over. And there is much common sense and scholarly discourse on how, when, where, why, and what obedience can be demanded in a family, because woven within the common understanding of Islam is that abuse of ANY kind is forbidden (including coercion, financial, gaslighting, intimidating etc). But this society that electrocutes Allah's creation to gorge themselves on them, creates multi-billion dollar industries that demean women, and barely "gave" women the right to own property or voice opinions will project their systems of thinking on Islam and never understand that women were inherently equal to men from day one and that's seperate from family rules. Regardless though, a woman by obeying is not submitting because submitting can only be done for Allah. If a man demands submission from a woman, he is trying to compete with Allah and is also abusing His creation, and it's straight to hell for that.
What Muslims need to reclaim for themselves & their children is the natural sense of curiosity ,joy of discovery & uninhibited innocence that Allah has placed in every child in order for him or her to fulfill their potential. We sadly being to mould the child to conform to traditions,man made rules & mannerisms in the name of God even before that child has even a sense of their own identity. Society destroys the innate worth of that human being because blind obedience is rated as the highest virtue. There is no deep understanding,no self learning through experience limiting growth & progress.Everything is forced & imposed even with good intentions. There is no desire to observe & recognise the natural rhythms of life & to align with universal principles & laws . Only to dominate & dictate which stunts development of the soul.

I reside in,india and I am interested in buying these books mentioned any suggestion.I don't use Amazon. I am also interested in buying any second hand books ,similar books for myself and my grandchildren.
Children are so abused as soon as you are born.you are baby, is supposed to know all about life already - NO family is the root of all the problems, children need a DAD - when there is only a mum, the little boy becomes the substitute husband ( NO not in an intimate way ). It is too much pressure on a child, then a little girl needs a dad , he helps her to develop healthy relationships with boys…..What does she see most of the time- a revolving door of men - then the icing on the cake NO Religion !!! We have lost our moral compass….✝️return to Jesus Christ - a life believing in Jesus is the only - God bless all.
Aoa, @The Thinking Muslim, can I get the contact or email of Ahmed Paul Keeler... I want to talk to him and request him about his book, his life story book... If contact cannot be provided then can you please ask him for that... I will be very greatful for this favor.. Your brother Muhammad Ali Hasnain
With all due respect, what is your intention behind this disrespectful comment? You're certainly not being charitable or kind. How sad that I had to stumble upon this after listening to a spiritually uplifting podcast. If you don't like Brother Hamdi, don't watch! But to come here & play troll is really uncalled for. I guess you're just another of modernity's victims who hasn't learned how to be a mature, compassionate adult.
I don’t like the miserly, cowardly behaviour of the vehicle operators of Britannia. Who never pay for dinner. Rather it’s always the person to their left. Vehicles have etiquette’s in Islam, where you enter with your right and you leave with your left. So what, the steering wheel is on the right. You choose British vehicles, you operate British vehicles accordingly and don’t behave miserly in them. Where you show me your backside all the time, instead of paying dinner. You want do something, show your backside outside of the vehicle and not it, drivers…
Islam and modern ideas are not compactible, submission to religion creeds would hamper development and scientific growth. For example, the social media you are using for dawah today would not have been ubiquitous, if it was invented in an Islamic controlled country. It would have restricted only to some bunch of Imams. Thank God, it was a product of secularism, and today, everyone is using it. Some women are very intelligent more than men, the idea of keeping such brilliant women at home itself is a disservice to humanity and God.
Using social media as an example of the good thing for secularism is kinda losing argument. Since it can be argued that it has brought much more bad than good. Why do people always take things to the extreme? Vast majority of women, like men, don’t want to be doing 9-5 jobs. It’s utterly nonsensical to believe that’s somehow impowering when we all know it was done just to double the taxes. No one says intelligent women shouldn’t use their gift for the good of mankind and it’s non sense to put down women who stay at home as if they can’t contribute to society from there.
Nonsense thinking! Instead of focusing onbthe threats facing muslims today by by the Enemies of Islam and bringing real thinkets, you are bringing those that Shias and Iran. It shows how much thinking is behind your agendas?

32:50 "Plastic toys, they play with it a bit and they get bored and very often you´ll find they break them because there´s nothing in it for their imagination."
That's the point. The kids break one toy, the merchant can sell another. It's the parents who have been deceived by the merchants.
Our kids are used as a tool to keep us buying, and that´s the genius trick of this biz
And he said 'complete toys'. That was such a line, he said, which is not leaving me. ❤
Our most challenging times we living in where cell phones have stolen the childhood of children and time of adults. It requires very strong disciplined parents not to give in to buying games and cellular phones. And many of us are failing as we see our kids become under the spell of the cellphones and games.

Wow, very insightful and so full of wisdom. This lecture needs to be put in book format and read.
Yes I agree.
Has this gentleman written a other books that are published?
The answer is YES

Children are so abused as soon as you are born.you are baby, is supposed to know all about life already - NO family is the root of all the problems, children need a DAD - when there is only a mum, the little boy becomes the substitute husband ( NO not in an intimate way ). It is too much pressure on a child, then a little girl needs a dad , he helps her to develop healthy relationships with boys…..What does she see most of the time- a revolving door of men - then the icing on the cake NO Religion !!! We have lost our moral compass….✝️return to Jesus Christ - a life believing in Jesus is the only - God bless all.

With all due respect, what is your intention behind this disrespectful comment? You're certainly not being charitable or kind. How sad that I had to stumble upon this after listening to a spiritually uplifting podcast. If you don't like Brother Hamdi, don't watch! But to come here & play troll is really uncalled for. I guess you're just another of modernity's victims who hasn't learned how to be a mature, compassionate adult.

I don’t like the miserly, cowardly behaviour of the vehicle operators of Britannia. Who never pay for dinner. Rather it’s always the person to their left. Vehicles have etiquette’s in Islam, where you enter with your right and you leave with your left. So what, the steering wheel is on the right. You choose British vehicles, you operate British vehicles accordingly and don’t behave miserly in them. Where you show me your backside all the time, instead of paying dinner. You want do something, show your backside outside of the vehicle and not it, drivers…
Can you imagine when the thinking Muslim mix with Western magic Western thinking the end result kufrr and bida and shirk.
Make sure to delete these criticism because you cannot tolerate the truth.
Islam and modern ideas are not compactible, submission to religion creeds would hamper development and scientific growth. For example, the social media you are using for dawah today would not have been ubiquitous, if it was invented in an Islamic controlled country. It would have restricted only to some bunch of Imams. Thank God, it was a product of secularism, and today, everyone is using it. Some women are very intelligent more than men, the idea of keeping such brilliant women at home itself is a disservice to humanity and God.
Using social media as an example of the good thing for secularism is kinda losing argument. Since it can be argued that it has brought much more bad than good.
Why do people always take things to the extreme? Vast majority of women, like men, don’t want to be doing 9-5 jobs. It’s utterly nonsensical to believe that’s somehow impowering when we all know it was done just to double the taxes.
No one says intelligent women shouldn’t use their gift for the good of mankind and it’s non sense to put down women who stay at home as if they can’t contribute to society from there.

Nonsense thinking!
Instead of focusing onbthe threats facing muslims today by by the Enemies of Islam and bringing real thinkets, you are bringing those that Shias and Iran.
It shows how much thinking is behind your agendas?
So you think the enemies aren't targeting your children...
Go on...
The houses of muslims are on fire and burning, but these guys are wasting time on other issues, which are for another time.
Someone woke up on the wrong side of the crib.
Looks like you recently became religious. It will take some time for you to mature.
This is the type of attitudes that have muslims impotent and divided..
I never think i ever arrived at maturity
