As Salaamu Alaikum and hello all. I hope you are having / have had a blessed Jumuah. I am posting here a couple of videos I’d like you to take a look at. One I did yesterday afternoon. It was a short Q&A about Islam. A young lady from Turkey asked some pointed questions about Islam and her attitude is that she wants Islam to be eliminated from Turkey. She said that she herself is Muslim so of course you can see that she is confused. I engaged her in the first video, then I did another Periscope broadcast this morning to go into more detail about how this interaction affected me.

The videos kind of speak for themselves but briefly I’ll say if you grew up in a “Muslim” home or country where Islam was not being practiced correctly, I know it’s easy to blame Islam and want to have nothing to do with it, but instead you should put aside your preconceived notions and take it upon yourself to study Islam from original sources.

That was the original video with the young lady asking questions / making comments. You can’t see the text from the original Periscope broadcast but I’m getting in the habit of reading them aloud for the benefit of people watching on replay. Next is my follow-up video:
