Kenyan Flight Attendant found Islam

Be advised that there is music in the background.
An amazing story of how Islam found a Christian woman who thought she had it all.
Why would women run towards Islam, if Islam is oppressing? Why would women run towards Islam is Islam does not give them hope, love, life? Why would someone give up being uncovered, being so called free, go where ever they want, do whatever they want, eat what ever they want, sleep when they want, not wake up early and pray, not fast not do anything that is structured? WHY WHY WHY?
You need to find out why? You owe it to yourself as a Christian or any other faith to find out why.

Muslims Warned Against Acts 17 Apologetics' David Wood (on ABN sat)

I live in the UK and I can assure you most Christians I have met have been sincere. However, the ineternet is awash with fundamentalist "Christians" who very much appear to be unchristian.

Many, if not all, of these fundamentalist internet "Christians" bash Islam on a regular basis; using varied methodologies.

David Wood, on ABN, uses the methodology of passing off fabrications, hoaxes and lies as fact. Here David Wood is caught presenting a googled hoax to demonise Muslims. Sad but true.

Muslims, be alert to this tactic and ask your local scholars with regards to anything you are unsure about. Don't be fooled.



Spot the spelling mistake

If you are struggling to read the text in time, please pause and read the text before moving on. Did David Wood really expect us to believe he was keeping this a secret because he "does not like talking about it"?

May Allah protect us from deception. Ameen.

Is Shamoun that brave?

Sam Shamoun is not unknown to the debate community on the net, especially when his ways of dealing with his opponents are not very clean. Recently he has been outdoing himself by insulting Yahya, myself and others such as Shabir Ali and Sami.

Sam claims that we are scared to debate him, but he fails to mention that we are debating him, however not in the way he wants. So since he does not get his way, he will not miss any opportunity to insult us and to challenge us thinking that we might give in.

For those who might wonder why do we refuse to debate him on a face to face or live basis, as debates usually are that way, let me tell you that you might want to realize that the topics that we are discussing are very sensitive and cannot sometimes be given justice in a debate face to face. Why?

Well first and foremost debates are not always based on truth but rather the debate skills of the ones presenting. I have admitted many times that Shamoun is a very good debater however that does not mean he is speaking the truth or that the truth is on his side. That has to be taken into consideration by a good debater before he engages his opponent. That is exactly what I have done. I did not refuse to debate him, as I will always do that, insh Allah till the day I die I will keep refuting the lies and misconceptions that people such as Sam keep propagating in the world, however to each person I might take a different approach based on calculated and educated choices.

What am I scared of? I can tell you that it's not Sam or any person in this world, it is God that I am scared of. So did I run, did I ever run, did I ever act cowardly? No NO NO NO NO NO. Sam would like you to think that and he keeps saying that about Yahya as well, but that is only because we are killing him softly with our words, our refutations and our arguments which are researched well, which have a time factor that could not be possible in a face to face debate, and which allow our audience to realize the tricks that Shamoun would be able to pull in a face to face debate, but cannot in a debate where the opponent has time to research and investigate all the allegations put forth.

Given the above Sam is boiling inside and the only thing he can do is try his hardest to upset us, to insult us, in order to get us to finally break and say FINE WE'LL DO IT FACE TO FACE. I want to make a note here. This does not mean we or I will never debate Shamoun under a different format but for now this format is the best, as it allows the MUSLIM side to show the audience the flaws of the arguments, replay the information given by Shamoun and expose the flaws one by one, while correcting them and giving people the proper information. At the same time the inconsistency and double standards of Shamoun are shown. There might be a time when I will debate Sam in a different format, maybe one day when he can control his emotions, his hatred and his mouth. We might feel that in the future an intellectual debate is possible, however since intellectual debates entitle clean speech we might have to wait a bit for Sam to mature.

Till then we are and we will keep debating him, but in the format of YOU MAKE A VIDEO I RESPOND, THEN YOU RESPOND, THEN I RESPOND allowing our audiences to be able to go beyond just witnessing a spectacle of words, and debate skills to a state where they can actually digest the information, check the claims and confirm the truth themselves as GOD GAVE THEM A MIND ALSO AND NOT ONLY TO SAM.

In conclusion, when Shamoun keeps complaining and accusing us of not wanting to debate him, that is not true. We are debating him, and everyone on youtube can see it, as they have, it's only that we are not doing it the way he wants which causes a big problem for him and his folk, who are being exposed for the lies they are spreading about ISLAM, loosing audiences every day, and actually allowing Muslims and non Muslims to see the truth of the argument and choose ISLAM as their way of life, as it was the way of life of Jesus and all the prophets from before.

Jesus on The Life of this World

One of the most amazing stories about the deception of the life of this world, told to us by Jesus peace be upon him.
Jesus is one of the most beloved prophets in Islam, a figure to imitate and follow, a man who was one of the best worshipers, who divorced this world and followed God, preaching to people that they should repent as the Kingdom of God is near.

So who is debating me?

For those following up with my discussion with Shamoun, and are confused as to why I am debating Keith Truth, let me tell you: you are not the only one who is confused. I mean I let it go for some time but now it's getting ridiculous and I want an answer from Shamoun's mouth as to why it's not him debating but Keith. Of course I received all the so called explanations that Sam is actually providing the material and Keith is just putting it together, but if you have followed up with the exchange you will realize that it does not seem as such as Keith seems to have much of the debate filled with his own ideas and understanding.

The excuse that I have been given is that Sam is not that technologically apt and therefore Keith is the one who posts the videos to help Sam. But that is very hard to believe, as Shamoun is a MAC operator as you can see him on his Jesus or Muhammad Show, as well as very familiar with Paltalk and other programs. Earlier this year I have even uploaded a program helping him post his own videos of a Mac computer which we both own, which is very easy to be done. However nothing happened. Fine, let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say he does not know how to make videos. Can he at least record his voice and send it to Keith and let him do the editing from there? I think that's not much to ask.

So what is the real deal, and why has he been debating through a proxy? One can only conclude, that it is due to the fact that he knows that he is getting involved in a debate that gives his opponent the ability to avoid his face to face debate tactics and tricks, the audience can investigate the proofs and take enough time to look at both sides, and not only be impressed by debate skills. So his usual tricks don't work, and he knows that he can play it safe by outsourcing where he can always say WELL IT WAS NOT ME DEBATING REALLY, IT WAS SOMEONE ELSE. I DID NOT THINK YOU ARE WORTH IT.

Let your minds wonder as mine is still wondering as to why Shamoun is not man enough to learn how to put a youtube video together and come forth so we can hear his voice and arguments.

We'll leave the lights on for him.
