I agree with Koorosh Vahabi’s saying
”
One thing that they didn’t mention was that one of the reasons Islam has forbidden Muslim women to marry non-Muslim men is because the husband (usually being the more dominant one) can impose his religious views on the children.

@YEAAAH – He had the best answers and if there was more time, he could’ve even elaborated.

Who disagreed?! [angry face]

I read these comments here before i watched the video and some of you guys confused me.

In reality, Asra was owned in the beginning of the show by the host. Her arguments were so weak. You could see her desperation by saying “you’re not alone, you’re not alone” “i’ll come to your wedding” and so much more.

Plus i didn’t see Shaykh YQ get schooled, what debate were you watching? :S

@Salam: Ustadh Yasir Qadhi did a fantastic job presenting the case of Islam with regards to the motion for this debate. Alhamdulillah. May Allah azza wa jall preserve him and reward him immensely for his efforts. Ameen. His reward is with Allah ta’ala, not in the reactions of the people. Why do you feel he was not articulate? Was he mumbling? Did he fail in illustrating his points comprehensively? His opening statement was the only one which systematically deconstructed the motion, bit by bit, through clarifiying the distinction b/w the cultural/tribal prejudices, forced marriages and other ills brought about from various cultures (outside Islam) and the true message of Islam in light of it’s conditions set on marriage. I agree he could’ve been a bit more expletive on the topic of unanamious concesus, but he handled the motion in a very scholarly and Sunnah-observed manner. What’s your reasoning for suggesting otherwise?

BTW Al Maghrib Institute and its courses focus exclusively on matters, principles and ethics derived from al-Qur’an wa Sunnah and nothing outside these sources such as feelings or individual interpretation (i.e. bid’ah). So I’m not clear what you were suggesting in your other comment either. How is Al Maghrib Inst. or Yasir Qadhi irrelevant to Islam and/or the Muslim youth?

Assalamu ‘Alaikum,

i agree with those who said it was too broad…

They focused waaaay too much on this…
Muslims have enough difficulty trying to marry the pious Muslim Hafidh brother who is from the same country, speaks the same language, follows the same customs and traditions – but AUTHUBILLAH he’s from a different village!!

If there is 1/3782378291797 women who wants to marry a Christian…ok.
majority of people won’t accept that as from islam, but if she does it…there is nothing short of locking her up in a room and beating the fear of God into her that the family can do..
you might be able to keep her from the marriage, but who will change her heart?
you try your best to raise your daughters AND SONS and make dua for them…and leave it to Allah…
we all go through difficulties and sin…
we can all realize it with Allah’s grace and mercy and ask for forgiveness…
May Allah guide us all
All Praise is due to Allah; He is so Merciful

A response to the opening statement. Every choice is a personal choice. Choosing to be a Muslim is a choice. Choosing to follow Islam after claiming to be one is also a choice. Following some Islamic injunctions and ignoring others is also a choice. So if you ask me… Allah (S) has given us the choice to do right or wrong. We have the obligation of conveying what we consider guidance and its up to individuals to make their own choices. I don’t see what the point is of forcing anyone into doing anything.

For these democracy-oriented, for-the-motion people, nothing works. What pleases them is their own interpretations.

As for the 62:38, number doesn’t matter in Islam What matters is that we have shaykhs like Yasir Qadhi to help us stay on the straight path, subhanAllah. May Allah SWT bless us all with guidance, and tawfeeq to keep aside our egos and the pride; above all, may Allah, The Exalted, bless us with more shaykhs like Yasir Qadhi, ameen.

I think it was lady sitting next to Shaiykh Yasir Qadhi who dominated the entire debate. I am forgetting her name.

I believe that both sides are wrong. There is no DEBATE about what Allah has made clear through the Quran and Sunnah, and Allah knows best.
