Dear Brothers, Sisters and non-Muslims. I made this only for one reason... :Dear Brothers, Sisters and non-Muslims. I made this only for one reason... بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 2:بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم To show Islam in the best possible manner by ways of the Al-Qur’an and the Sunnah of our beloved prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in a slideshow series, which each lasts approximately the length of a song.


Slide 3:We cannot expect this message to hit everyone spiritually and they change their ways for that is up to Allah (swt) alone, but by the blessings of Allah, through the Internet, we can reach all four corners of the globe. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 4:Slow and steady is the key. The beloved prophet Muhammad (pbuh) spent 13 years just preaching Iman (faith) alone. Why is it that when we preach faith we have to instantly say everything is either Halal or Haram? All praise is to Allah that we have excellent lecturers in Brother Yusuf Estes, Khalid Yasin and Abdur-Raheem Green, who by the Grace of Allah have come from the darkness into the Light and are preaching the word of Allah so that more people can come into the Light too. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 5:There will be people who will not always accept what you tell them and that is their choice. “There is no compulsion in Deen” #Surah 2, Verse 256#. If people were forced to become Muslims, would not everyone had been a Muslim when the prophet were alive? Why is that some were Muslims and others were not? Because it was their choice. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 6:Many non-Muslims judge Islam based on the action of its followers and we blame them for painting Islam with a bad brush. Blame ourselves for it is easier to blame others than ourselves. “And we have sent you (Muhammad) as a messenger to Mankind” #Surah 4, Verse 79#. Therefore we need to be a shining light in Islam so that people can come to their own conclusion that Islam is the best solution EVEN if the Muslims are contributing to the problems of society today. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 7:Do not for one second think I am condemning the Muslims around the world as a whole but the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said himself, “The best generation is my generation and the generation that follows and then the generation that follows.” What mention is there about us being a great generation? None and this is evident in the dictators that are ruling us today and this is the punishment Allah has bestowed upon us because of what our hands have sown. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 8:The reason why so many reverts have such a strong inclination to the Deen is because of their eagerness to acquire knowledge through the wisdom of Allah whilst we (born Muslims) think we know everything. Imam Shafi’i said “The more I learn, the more I learn of my ignorance”. A Bedouin came to Imam Malik with 40 questions, and left back to his homeland having only 4 answers. What did Imam Malik say in regards to the remaining 36 questions?... بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 9:“I do not know”. We need to start saying these 4 words more often until we learn the Deen so we DO know the answers, but that requires effort, determination and love for the religion of Allah (swt). May Allah make us dwellers of His Paradise and may He make people come to this beautiful religion of His. I request all non-Muslims to truly look at Islam not at its followers or what the media portrays it to be. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 10:This concludes the Introductory part of the slide-show. I will continue to make these until Allah wills. Remember people you have the choice to learn about Islam, or you can simply watch another video. No-one is forcing you to watch but please remember to not be hostile with one another even if you are of different faiths. The prophet (pbuh) said, “He who believes in Allah and the last day should speak good or keep silent.” بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Slide 11:By the permission of Allah, let us make this to be a debate and not an argument, and make du’a for the ummah, those who have left, those are alive and those who are yet to come. Anything good I said came from Allah, and anything wrong I said came from the Shaytan and myself. May the peace, mercy and the blessings of Allah be upon you. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
