Historically, Islam was originally the non- trinitarian Christianity, There was no new religion in the 7th century (Fred Donner, the origin of Islam), the proto-Islam was probably Non Trinitarian Christianity or Meesianic Judaism. Islam began probably in the 9th century. That's why Muslim cannot explain why Jesus is called Isa the Messiah, al masih, in the Quran. The Quran itself, or part of it, are Christian text (Syriac Aramaic reading of the Koran, Nazarene Reading of the Koran) .. Al Baqarah verse 2 says that the Quran is originally "a text/written revelation".
Didn’t Catholicism created Islam? Either way Catholic… is the scariest system. In my opinions and experiences.
May God guide you to the straight path brother
Speak with Dr. Adnan Ibrahim if you'd like more Muslim thinkers. also, look up Sufism if you want to know more about how Greek philosophy plays a role in Islam.
Jesus is the ONLY way Jordan. I am a recovering addict and I was doing three meetings a day trying to get sober for years. Finally, I fell to my knees, repented and begged Jesus to take it from me. I thought I could do it on my own and was extremely rebellious. It was bad. Sober now almost 10 years and my life has completely changed. He also saved me twice through miracles. Fell through ice and another. It wasn’t my time but please, anyone if you’re looking for a sign, this is it. I never post about this but felt led to. God bless you all! Please choose right. We’ve all sinned but nothing we can do will get us to Heaven. It’s all about what He did. He paid our debt! We are in the last days and He is real. I never believed it really but He is and He’s proved it over and over. Please repent and give your life to Him. Ask Him to be a savior and you will never fear, never feel shame or guilt again! You have a REAL Father in Heaven who loves you no matter what you’ve ever done. Go to Him! He loves you. 🙏❤️🕊✝️
“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” -Malcolm X
What the fuck has this to do with islam?
Just look at how the New York Times, BBC, and the rest approached the murder of the journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, non of them spoke to the eye witnesses at the scene, non of them showed the video of her murder by the Israeli army, they all were quick to adopt the Israeli occupation narrative, helping them muddy the water and avoid any responsibility. Non of them commented on the fact that she was the 55th journalist killed by the occupation, non of them mentioned that her murder didn’t happen in Israel, that it took place in an occupied Palestinian land, by the hands of an occupying army! Thank you for that quote, it rings very true.
@@usamabhanbhro6482 so ur denying the oppression of muslims in palestine. The opression of muslims in afghanistan, iraq and a whole bunch of other muslim countries. Cmon man
@@unknownbear9811 its political turmoil, not oppression, Palestine issue was self invited, afghan and iraqi issue is about oil. Oppression is being harassed for someone's belief.
@@unknownbear9811 I've lived in states and never felt oppressed, I can practice my religion as I did back in Pakistan.
Around 15 - 20 years ago I worked security at a building in London where this man once held a talk. A lot of people had turned up for his talk and he was obviously very popular with a tight schedule. He still took his time shaking my hand, greeting me, very friendly and respectful. Usually people wouldn't even look or notice me. I had forgotten his name until I saw this interview.
Wow!
Which man lol?
Hamza yousuf?
Wow
Obviously he's talking about Peterson 🤦♂️🤣
Coming from Catholicism and having reverted to Islam, I must say Islam saved my life.
@@wolfthequarrelsome504 Muslims believe everyone was born a muslim, so they’re not converting, they are merely returning where they belong. So maybe you don’t know what you’re doing, correcting someone incorrectly.
@@wolfthequarrelsome504 in islam, every human is born a muslim, the way how you get raised and live your life, determines your follow-up religion. And if this religion is not islam but another religion, and you convert to islam, this is called „reverting“
You don't have to look far if you want truth. How many people can memorize the bibles.0. How many people memorized the Quran. Over 1000 000 000.billion people.
@@AtlasMufasa I certainly, as a Scandinavian, was not born a muslim. Instead, I was born again in 2015, when Jesus saved me from false religion. I know now that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life - and that nobody comes to the Father but through Him. There are no amount of good works that you can do to appease the Father - because of our sin nature. But by accepting the shed blood of Jesus, blood that was shed for the total amount of the sins of the world, you are saved. He took the punishment that we truly deserve, and by faith in Him we are saved, through grace - lest anyone should boast! Choose Jesus today, be saved and escape the 7 years of hell on earth that is soon coming upon the earth. God bless 🙏.
@@thelasttrumpet2915 By your logic Hitler should also go to heaven as his sins don't matter since Jesus A.S blood covers us all 🙄.....
Converting to Muslim is the best thing happened to me... Alhamdullilah
Me too
My pious friend calls it reverting as he and likely other conservative muslims consider it the original word of god which were corrupted.Make of that what you will. I’d say the term convert which you used is more appropriate. Reading and understanding different faiths and belief systems is incredibly valuable. It’s interesting how many themes, lessons and guiding principles align with other ancient belief systems from across the world. JP does an incredible job of unlocking some of these ancient stories for us. It’s fantastic we have such open minded scholars working on interfaith relations and understanding. Inshallah we will see more of this in the future rather than the ignorance and hatred that runs rampant these days
Watch Christian princess you leave your faith on the spots, then you realize your were following a pedaphole all your life
Why?
@@philipclock I saw the same replies that u have asked in other comments. I request you to get a Qur'an an read it with open mind.
I'm a newly revert to Islam as well who was preaching Christianity last year to Muslims, Atheists & to everyone. May Allah guides us all.
Ameen
Amazing!May Allah keep you firm upon islaam. Keep ties with your non Muslim family, focus on learning who our Lord, the concept of Tawheed. Embark on a journey to learn arabic. I have been a revert for 11years now ,and these are the advice I wish I was given when I bcm muslim. Family is so important, patience with your self too,and knowing that you can't change yourself overnight. First thing I was told was to change my name🤦♀️there were many more important things for a revert to do than changing my birth name. Check videos of our brother Mohammed Tim Humble. He has great videos ❤peace to you
Jesus loves you and died for our sins amen beautiful day to serve the Lord Jesus
Welcome
SALAAM BRO♥✌
Brilliant conversation...i have recently ordered a copy of the quran and can't wait to make a start on it myself.
May God bless and guide you on your journey. May God guide us all
Christian Prince and David Wood will yeah you all you need to know about this hateful religion
May the God Almighty Illuminate your journey. Amin
God as Father is waiting for His lost sons and daughters to return home to Him .
May you find the truth you are seeking 🙌🏽
I came to Islam a few years ago. I hope the world can find Islam like me. Thanks to God.
Ameen
What did you find in Islam?
Everything humanity needs!
Amen I hope so :)
The world will never submit our souls to that dogmatic ideology.
I was born a muslim. I used to take Islamic practices as habits, but the more I learned about Islam, the more I became convinced with my religion and practice Islam sincerely with no suspicion or doubts. I think if Islam wasn’t in my life, I wouldn’t have gone through all the hardships in my life so peacefully. Truly I’m grateful for this blessing. Alhamdulillah.
Evry child born with Islam
“Studying without thinking is blindness, thinking without study is dangerous”…what a jewel of a quote
It's incorrect actually, if you are studying you are thinking, he should have said "memorising information without thinking is blindness, and thinking without remembering anything is dangerous (because if you need to run back to books all the time because you can't commit anything to memory means you can't be trusted.
@@altappomaktappo7060 lol
@@altappomaktappo7060 I'd say that's a reach. To me the second part is something like "if you think without realizing how very wrong you could be, you can reach some wild conclusions that you won't challenge"
That's how Hamza rephrased what he remember. But the original one is "To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous" It is a waste to just study because what's the point of studying in the first place if you're not going to utilize what you studied by thinking; developing new ideas and thoughts or solving problems using what you studied. I think the original one is more easy to understand as I can't relate "blindness"s' meaning.
@@altappomaktappo7060 No, you can study without thinking just like most people studied calculus in high-school including myself. moving on to the next part of the quote, you literally and completely missed the point here. It is dangerous to think and not study because with just thinking you lacks diversity of perspective. It is difficult to see the both side of the coin on your own. Keep on thinking alone, isolated, you're filled with one sided ideas becoming more and more polarized with everyone around and you becomes bigoted, arrogant and narrow minded.
When there's no interest to win the argument an interesting and enlightening conversation can be had. Thank you, gents!

I did my OWN research and Islam is EVIL from it's core. Muhammad their so called prophet was a CHILD MOLESTER, RAPIST, OWNED SEX SLAVE AND REGULAR SLAVES, AND WAS A MASS MURDERER. Now NONE of this is my personal opinion, all of this information comes from their OWN BOOKS. Quran, Hadith, Sira.
@@OrdonyFlastiny agreed
Islam is the religion who makes us to Believe in Jesus, We Muslims 100% Believes in Jesus, We Muslims Believes that Jesus was The Christ, No Muslim is a Muslim if he doesn’t Believes in Jesus, Jesus did Miracles by the Permission of Allah, Jesus himself Never said “Im God” also Never he said anyone to “Worship Me” Jesus was Just a Prophet and Messenger Of Allah Only to Guide The People of Israel, (COME TO ISLAM = COME TO JESUS) ----------------------- *Jesus Denies Being God* | Read ⬇️ ----------------------- "My Father is greater than me." [John 14:28] “I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to My God and your God.” [John 20:17] “Jesus said: 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.” [Mark 12:29] “Jesus, Fell with his face to the ground and Prayed.” [Matthew 26:39] “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgement is just because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who has sent me." [John 5:30] “The crowd answered, This is Jesus, the Prophet.” [Matthew 21:10-11] --------------------- *The Coming Of Prophet Muhammed In Bible* --------------------- “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When he the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come, He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you.” [John 16:12-14] --------------------- *Allah Clears About Jesus* --------------------- [Quran:- 5:72]:- “Jesus has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." [Quran:- 19:30]:- “Jesus has said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet.” [Quran:- 4:171]:- “Christ Jesus the son of Mary was no more than a messenger of Allah, So believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not "Trinity" desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: ---------------------
@@HasanUnknown YOU are FLAT OUT LYING. Now try addressing what I posted about Muhammad. Prove me wrong that Muhammad your so called prophet wasn't a CHILD MOLESTER, RAPIST, OWNED SEX SLAVE AND REGULAR SLAVES, AND WAS A MASS MURDERER. Stay on topic and address those FACTS.
Highest levels of Islam is gratitude. Suffering makes you stronger. Quran was there for me when no one could give me answers. Speech of God, The Most High.
I'm retiring next month. And I'm a bit nervous about how to keep up with my kids.
You can venture into crypto trading… and make money. The good thing is. You just need a broker to help you. I'm in and I'm making good money.

I greatly appreciate this discussion. I am an American white male Christian that served in the military. I have learned to stereotype Islam from several sources throughout my life. Being an American, I do believe in freedom of religion, including Islam. After watching this discussion, I have opened my mind more clearly to the Islam faith and would like to research more about it. All religions have people that are bad examples and do not properly represent their faiths. I agree that moving forward towards peace should start with our similarities rather than our differences. Peace to all.
Thank you Brazos for your open mind and open heart. I promise, the more you look into Islam the more you'll realize how very different it is in practice and understanding to the extremist groups that claim Islam for themselves. God bless you and thank you for your selfless service.
Watch blogging theology channel you will like it, it's for an English man looking for the truth anyways Westerns ask your selves why media blinding you and hypnotising you to not seeing the truth of Islam, because it's against porn, alcohol, gambling, drugs, nudity and indecent dress, these giants own the media and you are your market, all what they want is to keep you their slaves their clients and market, they don't care for you after that if you going to the hell (Literally)
Thank you Brazos! This was really kind words! I ask God for guiding us all.
May Allah guide you to the truth
when doing research, I encourage you to follow this path. whenever you read a quranic verse you do not understand, you shouldn't look it up on youtube, where a 21st century "scholar" will lie in your face. instead look up the "tafsir" (exegesis/explanation) of the most prominent and earliest scholars in the Islamic faith. Some of these being, Ibn Kathir, Al Jalalain, Al Qurtubi, Ibn Abbas (first cousin of muhammed. This in combination with the "Hadith", which are basically stories passed down and written 200 years after mohammed died will give you a clear understanding of what Islam encompasses. The most prominent hadith collections are from Sahih al Bukhari, and Sahih Muslim, which are called the "sahihain" sahih being the word for authentic. These hadith collections are undisputed and are thus, as the word indicates 100% authentic. Next to the 2 sahihain collections you have sunan abi Dawood, sunan Ibn Majah, sunan an Nasa'i, Jam'i al Tirmidhi. Goodluck with researching. May the peace of Christ be with you, and the power of the holy spirit guide you!❤ Edit: The "Hadith" are basically stories on mohammed, how he lived, how he acted, and what he said. Without the Hadith, a lot of the quran cannot be explained, which is why they are necessary for the Islamic faith.
Become so emotional knowing that the sheikh's parents passed with the shahadah, Alhamdulillah.

If you are new to Islam, perhaps you don't know that Mohammad was 54 years old when he had sex with a little 9 year old girl. Her name was Aisha. Read about it in Sahih Bukhari: "that the Prophet (ﷺ) married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death). " Sahih Bukhari 5133
This genious man, Hamza Yusuf, says profound sentences that go deep in the hearts like "the scent of death is almost in every verse of the Quran" and " I am not completely convinced that i chose Islam, in some way Islam chose me". Honestly he reminds me of professor Jeffery Lang when he said that when he started to read the Holy Quran he found out rather that the Holy Quran IS the one who was reading him actually. Oh my God, what beautiful and deep phrases these are.
Hamza yusuf helped me discover Islam way before I became Muslim. This is such an amazing video! Every second was interesting!
May Allah bless you with Istiqomah Sister... and become asbabul hidayah also for your family . Aamiin.
Having grown up i Saudi in the 1980’s I have zero respect for Islam.

I have converted to Islam after watching anti Islamic materials for a long time. Tried to bully Muslims with absurd materials. But thanks to Allah for guiding me. And this story was very much heart touching.
absurd materials are not the absence of vindicated materials. you surely didnt try to bully islam because of truth but for ego and pride. do you want the truth God gives you truth, or he let you wallow in your own ignorance why you became muslim. Come to the truth JESUS CHRIST
go talk to christian prince and you will leave islam in seconds just like thousands of others. lol
stay blessed and may Allah guide humanity to the truth

MashaAllah
What changed your life following Mohammed as your best example
What has changed? That you no longer respect women? You demand them to wear veils? Do you now throw gays off of rooftops? Rape little girls? Mutilate little girls? Suicide bomb? If not I dont think you are properly holding to the tenets of Allah shown by his followers over the last 3 decades.
Are you not ashamed of Muhammad selling women and indulging in slavery ? The USA is grappling with it's past of slavery and you have gone over to the side of the slave trader ? Shameful?
@@dinacountry2899 To be good to others, to feed the needs, to wakeup early and pray to God, to be best human being in this world and to work in Akhira(After life). To speak only good or to be silent.
Thank you for this talk. Hope to see you two talk again. I am from the USA, raised Christian. Was fortunate enough to have lived and worked globally and within Muslim countries. The discipline and ritual observed from my Muslim friends was inspiring to say the least. Also their depth of humanity was easily seen away from the spotlight of western stereotype of Islam. Was humbled and moved being around them.
Thank you for your words a lot of times people fall into stereotypes. I used to believe Christians were by name only and didn’t practice until I bought a house near an Orthodox Church and their commitment to their community and their treatment of others with such respect made me change my look completely. We are all brothers even if our beliefs defer.
This is nice to see . People normal ones looking for yhe truth themselves not watching others telling them this is bad and this is good. People can be bad , nasty , ugly , at the same time others are amazing , nice , well behaved. Still nice to know there are people understanding that we share the place of living not owning it and not wanting others to use it and live next to us. Greetings from a hot humid southern city.
I want to become Muslim more and more everyday. Got myself a copy of the Koran 😊
Quran* , i hope you find ur path
May Allah bless you with guidance
We are all born by Allah's will.
Be careful, it's a bad decision
May Allah bless you with the best
We had the pleasure of welcoming Mr Yusuf and his wife into our home last year not knowing they were our neighbors with their university around the corner. It is a gift to meet people you know nothing about and gently start to unravel the mystery of another. I’m grateful to come across this conversation at this time to continue that journey.
He is a gem

Catholic from Mexico Here. I believe I was called by God to be Catholic. Glad to finally get aquainted with the Muslim faith. Such a beautiful presentation!! To my knowledge, at least the way Islam was described on this conversation, it looks it has a LOT in common with Christianity. I feel very happy after watching this. I will never think badly about Muslim faith again, and I thank you for that. I used to have such a suspicious view on Islam. But after watching this I know now we are on the same team here.
I invite you to read the Quran.
Don't ever be fooled by the devil if you are a real Christian stay away from Islam they will lie to you with a smile on their face. Muhammad was a false prophet and has nothing to do with the real God of the universe.While Jesus was healing the sick, forgiving sin, and making the blind see Muhammad was worried about a child in his bed and was even bewitched by black magic, kissing black stones and doing pagan rituals that is still going on in Mecca today, he was clearly a *FALSE PROPHET* (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4987)Touching the Stone is one of the things by means of which Allah expiates for sins. It was narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: I heard the Messenger of Allah say: “Touching them both [the Black Stone and al-Rukn al-Yamani] is an expiation for sins.” Sunan an-Nasa'i (Book 26, Hadith 184) Narrated Aisha: "The Messenger of Allah married me when I was six, and consummated the marriage with me when I was nine." Sahih al-Bukhari 5080 (Book 67 Hadith 18) "When I got married, Allah's Messenger said to me, "What type of lady have you married?" I replied, "I have married a matron' He said, "Why, don't you have a liking for the virgins and for fondling them?" Jabir also said: Allah's Messenger said, "Why didn't you marry a young girl so that you might play with her and she with you?" Sahih al-Bukhari 5765 (Book 76, Hadith 79) Narrated Aisha: Magic was worked on Allah's Messenger so that he used to think that he had sexual relations with his wives while he actually had not. Sahih al-Bukhari 3175 (Book 58, Hadith 17) Narrated Aisha: Once the Prophet was bewitched so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done.
Please don’t say that and do some research. Islam has nothing to do with Judaism or Christianity. Would it shock you to know that the Quran SAYS Jesus was NOT crucified, that “Allah” deceived everyone so this could happen. Because after all “Allah is the best of deceivers.” All that glitters isn’t gold my friends, be discerning.
No, it has nothing to do with christianity. In fact, in the Qur'an christians and jews are called the worst of creatures. In other verse, they are calling for our subjugation, humiliation and extortion of jizya from us. Please do not get misguided by the taqiyya.
@@Jarnvir please do not misquote the Quran, and it would do you good to watch the video above rather than to prey for people in the comment section that got illuminated on the topic of Islam in this influential discussion.
A deep respect to dr Peterson for showing a genuine curiosity about Islam and giving it a fair spotlight in his huge platform to show what true colour of Islam is❤
This was a conversation between 2 very pure souls.
You need to have your eyes open to see for judging from the outside Mr Jordan he was cutting him off every time he got a point to deliver and he knows he is saying facts that's the reason why he keep cutting him off and that's ignorant of him and he called himself psychologist I can read him from a mile away from me to understand the true path before engaging in a serious matter
MY TAKE What an incredible discussion. Islam has obviously been unfairly maligned in the western media. Hamza Yusuf dropped some real jewels (i.e truth) in this one. Thanks Jordan, please have Mr. Hamza Yusuf back on the show... maybe even monthly!
One of the best lessons of Hamza Yusuf is series called "Foundation of Islam, Hamza Yuzuf" ....
Nobody is allowed to criticise it in western media....we get our information from its victims and our history books.... and the koran itself.
@@wondering_stars_in_oz8462 you've shown your ignorance with this moronic comment LOL
@@wondering_stars_in_oz8462 I don't know what western media you're talking about, mate. I can guarantee you I have seen islam being shown in a negative light, be criticized, and even demonized, in western media.
@@darkknight5942 my fathers side left their home to cross a desert, see people die as they were going the distance and waited in camps and caves for months before they were saved. my mothers side hid in a caravan under hay bails and animals until they were transported out of the country to a port that would later take them to Greece. when will my parents, and my people get light shed on them in mainstream media? never. because it would, “show islam in a negative light”. genuine question for you and people who use the same lexicon as you, why is it that when you observe this “negative light” on islam, you dont do some research as to why it would be perceived as negative? you could have spoke to some people who escaped it and heard their perspective. instead, you ask the group being portrayed in a “negative light” why that is, and its almost like having the defendant be the only person heard in court. if you would like to expand your perspective, look into the maltreatment of coptics, assyrians/chaldeans, yazidis or really any other group in the middle east that isnt predominately muslim.

Jazakallah Khayran for this compilation
May Allah reward you for this
Great thanks
Thats a great compilation and did put everything into perspective how accomplished this speaker is
21:00 four conditions and their appropriate responses: 1. Blessing responses with gratitude 2. Tribulation response with patience 3. Obedient response with humility 4. Sinfulness response with repentance. 26:00 sin = miss the mark 😮 amazing, this make so much sense. We all miss the mark beacuse we are human and not perfect like our creator 🙏🏼 27:00 sincere = untainted without ulteria motives. 31:00 I appreciate JB's integrity of his role as a psychotherapist.

Sheikh Hamza Yusuf has a natural/ bright, healthy glow on his face. In Arabic and the Islamic tradition, this is called Noor (light) that’s associated with a clear, faithful mind, conscience, and heart.
احسنت والله
True
I was thinking same his face is very bright
Besides the faith that does shine through the face, I also think it has to do with moderation in most things and elimination of some things completely in accordance to Islamic way. So most likely Hamza Yousuf hasn’t had major amounts alcohol or hard drugs in his life which may attribute to over all better skin and health.
We have some muslims here who literally vote depending on which politician has the most noor on his face. If you don't want to become Iran or Turkey, don't put too much meaning on it.
This conversation is reaching me in perfect timing and helps me work through many issues in my personal life. Thank you so much for this beautiful conversation
Best wishes to you

So must not be a Christian if you “Love” hearing about another religion that’s all a lie and keeps you from the Truth which is Jesus which I’m sure you should know
@@BornAgainJared Jesus is what truth? What u call truth we believe is a lie that u will answer for on judgment day! Your truth is not the truth according to your Bible because nowhere in the bible can u find where Jesus says "I am God" or " worship me" actually.. it says the opposite.. it affirms only God knows the hour and not Jesus... that's 1 example.. so I ask u.. do u believe Jesus is God? If so where is your scripture?
@@WayneYaqub you guys say the same exact thing everytime. You keep your religion. I’ll keep my real relationship with God. I can live in freedom now from my sin while you will continue in your sin and not stop and become more and more sinful till you die. that’s just the reality of our situation. Go ahead and never transform to the person God wants you to be. You love your sin. You love your porn. You love your lying. And most of all you love your money. You don’t want to change you’ll take it to your grave . We need to Jesus to be saved from our sinful nature that takes you to hell .
@@BornAgainJared None of what you just said has proper logic in it. You mean the sins that Muslims are told not to do from birth, meanwhile you have Christians saying Jesus died for our sins? Logically, one of those sounds like you're making an excuse or justifying sinning based on what someone else did.
I am german and converted to Islam. The german word for 'guilt' Shaykh Hamza Yusuf was reffering to at 15:21 is called 'Schuld' in german. For everybody who was wondering. Salam from GERMANY/ Deutschland
I'm from Germany too .What i read in the Quran is appoling for me. For alot of mosques in Germany are more moderat, but they do not preach it like it was sent down and lived like the first Moslems
Does the word have the same sort of sense of debt like he talks about

The end was emotional! Both had lost words and couldn't end the program. THIS IS A DEEP AND SPIRITUAL JOURNEY TO THE WORLD OF RELIGIONS. JB IS AN AMAZING LISTENER, AND HE ALWAYS RESPECTS HIS GUESTS, AND HAMZA IS A WALKING ENCYCLOPEDIA. MAY ALLAH LEAD BOTH TO HIS STRAIGHT PATH. I'M HAPPY TO SEE THAT MANY INTELLECTUALS ARE COMING BACK TO THE REALITY, AND THE ERA OF DAWKINS AND HITECHENS ARE OVER.
This was an outstanding discussion on religion. Thank you so much Dr.Peterson for inviting Hamza Yusuf. Please have more discussions such as these.
Hamza Yusuf is considered a hypocrite by the majority of Muslims.

Shaykh Yaser Qadhi should be next 😊
I was happy to see that Dr. Peterson finally invited a knowledgeable and articulate traditional Muslim on his show. Imagine wanting to have a dialogue with Christianity but only inviting ignorant apostates and heretics to the dialogue-but that seems to be the norm when it comes to Islam. Kudos to Dr. Peterson for finally snapping out of it and breaking that intellectually dubious trend.
100% agree. This was a thoughtful discussion but I think there should be further discussions between these two intellectuals as they possess deep wells of knowledge in their respective disciplines and I think this interview only touched the surface.
@@salmivec Yes, further discussions would probably be quite fruitful. I think Dr. Peterson's knowledge of Islam is very limited, and like most people in the West, what he thinks he knows about Islam is most often distorted, superficial, or flat-out incorrect. Lack of intellectual integrity seems to be the norm these days, so I'm happy to see that Dr. Peterson is making an effort to engage in dialogue with a believing Muslim instead of what amounts to a "straw man" Muslim. Quite often, if one mentions to a knowledgeable Christian that one wants to learn about Islam and requests recommended books about it, they will recommend books written by people who rabidly hate Islam--or at a minimum strongly disagree with it. Just think about the look that would be on their face if you told them that you were going to "learn" about Christianity by reading books written by those who hate it or otherwise disbelieve in it...Ha! Keeping that in mind, it's always nice to see a bit of fair-mindedness and intellectual integrity in action. Most people don't want the Truth, but want to remain fat, dumb, and happy inside their little echo chamber and comfort zone.
@@rwsquiresjr64 Fat?
@@ruthgilmour8399 The phrase "fat, dumb, and happy" was a common colloquialism back in the day...obviously because being fat was almost always the result of being pampered or lazy--which included, or often manifested itself as, intellectual laziness.
Thank you for this comment. This is exactly how I feel when most main stream shows invite what they call experts on Islam.
What a wonderful mother Sheikh Hamza describes, may Allah be pleased with her. I converted to Islam about 45 years ago, Alhamdullilah. During my pilgrimage, another convert friend of mine conveyed to me the probability that Buddhists are people of the Book. It is in the Qur’an.
That is my belief as well. That most establish religion originally came from prophets of God but human corruption over time makes them unrecognizable anymore. But we'll still find trace of the original teaching here and there
It's found by Jews.its pure Satanism nothing to do with monotheism.

@@ThaiChinaMalay Who do you mean by "Muslim leaders"? If you're talking about presidents and royals, & people in power, none of those represent Islam because most of the political world is now corrupt
@@ThaiChinaMalay u come from a place of hatred. May God cool your heart and grant you better understanding of this peaceful religion. Dialogues like these are to increase understanding and dispell the bombardment of false narratives about Islam and muslims in general. Relating to your comment of world domination, I wish to explain to you the reason why you may meet muslims that seem very excited to get others to accept this religion. Let's use an example: let's assume you are a good hearted person and you have some knowledge that's life changing and completely beneficial - you would obviously want to share this knowledge with family, friends and the world at large. For muslims, this beautiful truth is Islam, and we want to share it with everyone far and wide. The motive is one of love, care and concern for our fellow brothers and sisters. It has absolutely nothing to do with "world domination". We just want the best for our fellow man. If u have come across any muslims that are aggressive, then this is the fault if that particular person,and not the religion itself. The religion tells us to invite people in a peaceful and beautiful way. My advice to you is to get a translation of the holy Qur'aan and read it and decide for yourself. Keep an open heart and mind, and leave the hatred and bias aside. You might be surprised at the result. May God guide us all to the truth, and may He allow us all to live peacefully.

@@ThaiChinaMalay What an ignorant person with an ignorant perspective Seriously man you have issues As if other religions are peaceful and loving and their followers are saints.

Continue learning brother
If you need help then read this: Why do you believe in Christianity (except for being born or taught in Christianity)? If you are going to use the Bible then why do you believe in the Bible? Do you think it is the word of God? Why? Can you give me one proof? I don't need you to answer this. Use this to learn, to know if you could answer these questions. There's nothing wrong in doubting. God gave us intelligence. If everyone just refused to change their ways then no one would find the truth, except for those who were born into it. You will either end up finding the truth or your belief would grow stronger.

Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity! what a mistake in the Qur'an!
@@rosalia2940 what does the son of God mean then? How do u interpret the meaning of the son of God? If so where's your proof in the Bible of this claim?
*Who explains to us why the Koran says Christians believe God has a biological son!* To all Muslims! Son of God means NOT SON! What is called the son of God is the word of God = god himself! Which has nothing to do with a child (son)! Thus, the Son of God is incarnated as the human Jesus and the human Jesus is therefore referred to as a son, which does not mean a son!

Before reverting to Islam my husband and I were talking about life being unfair and he said something that made me really think.... "Who ever promised us that life would be fair?!". It was then that I realized how entitled I really felt. .. He told me we should be greatful for just being able to use the bathroom properly. Some people can't even do that. Put things into perspective and be greatful for EVER-EE-THING!
If I’m told “who ever promised you that life would be fair”, it’ll only make sense to think it’s fair if I think that I signed up for it(this life). Except I didn’t. And I’m pretty sure you didn’t too. And your religion also says we didn’t. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be greatful for what you have. It’s just a wrong reason to be greatful. There will always be people whose lives are way better than you and those with way worse lives. Your greatfulness/happiness depends on whom you compare yourself to. Afterall it’s just a life hack of how to be happy. Not that relatable to religion imo.
@@someul actually thats just the thing we kinda sign this, that question has an answer in islam, u need to watch some islamic videos talking about the phase of "souls" they come to the body, in idlam we had phases, the phase of the soul, than the body and the soul, than the sleep phase and than the death phase or what we call a barzakh, wich is another world, than the last phase starting with the day of judgment.

My conversion to Islam was correct.
I thought this was one of the best interviews. Very human, very natural and easy to engage in. Jordan drew a lot out of Hamza, like a clinical psychology session. Very enlightening on Islam.
It did seem like Jordan was acting as an interviewer or even a clinical psychologist in this interview and asking Hamza Yusuf about his experiences a nd conversion which was very refreshing
It's a shame Peterson talk big but still ignorant about deception of islam.... I recommend you to read the quran and hadith first untill you invite another muslim to lie on your face . This guy Humza is surely deceived by some lying spirit because he obviously never been a strong in faith with Jesus , Remember even some Atheist people say they meet a spirit Which told them about past so how can you know if someone is come from God? In Bible whenever a Angel of God come to someone he introduce himself that he come from God same as Angel were come to mother Marry,,,, but in other cases a lying spirit never say he come from God but pretend otherwise , when so call angel of "allah" (islamic God which never introduced in Bible) came to prophet muhammad he never said he came from God but muhammad's wife and Worqa bin Nophil a false Christian told muhammad that you meet a Angel of God which is a lie , Muhammad met a evil spirit to drag people from worshiping a true God Jehovah , ... Jesus said who is the liar and who is the antichrist? It is who deny the father and the Son! islam deny both so it's a lie and antichrist religion at the same time.
I actually thought it was Jordan who was quite inquisitive and wanted to understand the complexities of life from a man who knows those complexities. Hamza Yusuf is clearly a learned man and someone who is confident and content with who he is - no arrogance, animosity or ego. Traits that are rarely found in people who are that well versed in anything in this day and age.

😮 Good
Good comment
I have literally been waiting for this conversation for 5 years.
Omit 'literally'. It's superfluous.
What are your thoughts, after watching?
@@maxb9315 it’s not superfluous, it’s meant to add emphasis. It’s not using literally to mean “in reality” but to emphasize the seriousness or extent of something. “He’s 20”. “He’s literally 20!” They mean the same thing ofc but the use of literally is to add specific emphasis, and so it’s not superfluous.
@@fahim-ev8qq it is superfluous i.e. how can one not literally look forward to something? Can you imagine an adult saying to his friend : I'm literally looking forward getting my car fixed?or I'm literally looking forward to talking to my brother? The word literally is literally superfluous here. Hehe. If I had a friend who said: I'm literally looking forward to going on vacation, I would wonder why he's using that word when he could have easily said something like: I really I'm looking forward to my upcoming vacation. Is one supposed to respond to that by saying: well, aren't you "literally" looking forward to your vacation? Yeah it's superfluous. So this person has been waiting 5 years. I'm not going to interpret that symbolically or as some kind of metaphor, but simply 5 years without them having to say literally.
@@grosbeak6130 it wouldn’t make sense in that context (the vacation sentence) but that’s just because you’re using a sentence in which it doesn’t really fit. I feel you read this on Reddit or something, “oh people use literally when it’s not necessary!” But it ignores how a spoken language functions. “Literally” is meant to emphasize things or sometimes even to indicate surprise. Say for example that person hates their brother. In that context it would make sense to say “I’m literally looking forward to talking to my brother”. It indicates the surprise one feels at feeling that way. For example in regards to your vacation example “I’m literally happy the vacation is over”. The literally is used to emphasize the surprise one feels, since usually you’re not happy a vacation ends etc. - In other sentences it can emphasize something. “He’s literally American!” the word has so many nuanced uses in spoken and written English, that actually the vast majority of times it’s used it’s not superfluous.
I experienced something this year and learnt about repentance,patience and submission. My son strayed became addicted to drugs and tried attacking me ,he abused me even though I constantly showed him love and patiently tried to handle the heart breaking process and on going living in distress for 8 months . It brought me close to Allah and I understood the my love and attachment brought me this pain as Allah wanted me to go close to him through this pain. It was a test for me and my son, I took that path and today my son left me blaming me and it’s painful but I will remain patient and keep praying and hope that Allah has his course to run and he will eventually bless me and guide my son to the right path with firm realization someday. But I have to submit and understand Allah’s way and trusting his plan . And this pain reminded me of all my mistakes and repent to Allah for forgiveness and to clean my soul from all my sins. I am great full that I am taking step towards the path which I should have never deviated.
May Allah grant you what you desire the most amin.
May Allah guided conscious, heart and mind of Jordan to Islam! Ameen !

*Who explains to us why the Koran says Christians believe God has a biological son!* To all Muslims! Son of God means NOT SON! What is called the son of God is the word of God = god himself! Which has nothing to do with a child (son)! Thus, the Son of God is incarnated as the human Jesus and the human Jesus is therefore referred to as a son, which does not mean a son!
Hebr 1,2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, *by whom also he made the worlds;* as everyone can see the term Son of God refers to the Word of God = god himself! For through that God created the worlds! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Why would Jordan leave the one true God YHWY who sent his son to die for him? Your good works which Mohammed says gets you to Heaven are like filthy rags to God. All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. Isiah 64:6

40:38 "If we're genuinely on the door of infinity (death and life after death), then we should take this time that we have very seriously to prepare to go through that door." Any person who believes in an afterlife, no matter from which religion, can appreciate this message.
@Marina Levine You say that now, but when your time here is close to an end and all you have left is that vague afterlife, the vagueness becomes scary if you're unprepared. I won't quote scripture if you don't believe in it, but here's the take of a death row inmate about to face the vagueness, from a famous song: When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion
@Marina Levine hey😃 Islam explains in great detail what will happen to us after death, up to the grave, up to the day of judgment, up to entering heaven / hell. And this reassures/scares us us (it depends what you did in the test (life)) because we know what awaits us.
@Marina Levine This is such a hilarious thing to say. lol

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. A beautiful beacon and ambassador of Islam and Muslims. Always willing to listen, engage and behave with integrity, fairness and most importantly willing to listen to others and treat his peers including non-Muslims like JBP with respect.

If you have heared of "Al- Walaa wa l- baraa" you would have thought twice before saying this. Islam tells you to love Muslims but to hate Kafirs (non Muslims).
Sarcasme? I've read the Quran. This is what i found. Chapter 9 verse 29, where is the love? C3 V151, where is the love? C4 V34 where is the love? Only hate against Christians, Jews, unbelievers, apostates, black people, women etc etc

Very interesting and informative conversation. As a Muslim i found Hamza Yousef explanations are very simple and clear, i really loved the way he simplified things in an understanding way. On the other hand dr Jordan tried to analyze and understand and i really loved what he said at the end to Hamza, which is we find something to unite all religions rather than grow hatred and differences.
When two knowledgeable and understandable persons talks . It too good to lisn these guys in one frame 💓
As a convert to Islam myself, I enjoyed this conversation. I see in Dr Peterson not only an academic and a psychologist but a sincere seeker trying to resolve some of the pain he encounters in others and in his own self. I have no doubt that his sincere seeking of God will continue to elicit a divine response. God bless you Dr Peterson; may Allah guide us all
Ameen. May Allah guide us to His Straight Path and maintain us steadfast on it and show us the Truth as truth and grant us to follow it and show us the Falsehood as falsehood and grant us to avoid it. Ameen JazakAllahu khayra

Do not listen to people. Go straight to the Quran. Read it. Read few verses of it. See the truth there. See the power there. See the truth that your hearts cannot deny.

Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise.” 24 Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.” 25 Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; 26 and everyone who is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” 27 She said to him: “Yes, Lord, I have believed that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one coming into the world.” John 11:23-27. After these things, the son of the woman who owned the house fell sick, and his sickness became so severe that he stopped breathing. 18 At this she said to E·liʹjah: “What do you have against me,* O man of the true God? Have you come to remind me of my guilt and to put my son to death?”19 But he said to her: “Give me your son.” Then he took him from her arms and carried him up to the roof chamber, where he was staying, and he laid him on his own bed. 20 He called out to Jehovah: “O Jehovah my God, are you also bringing harm to the widow with whom I am staying by putting her son to death?” 21 Then he stretched himself out over the child three times and called out to Jehovah: “O Jehovah my God, please, let this child’s life come back into him.” 22 Jehovah listened to E·liʹjah’s request, and the life of the child came back into him, and he revived. 23 E·liʹjah took the child and brought him down from the roof chamber into the house and gave him to his mother; and E·liʹjah said: “See, your son is alive.”24 At that the woman said to E·liʹjah: “Now I know that you truly are a man of God and that Jehovah’s word in your mouth is truth.” 1 King 17:17-24. As he moved along, they were spreading their outer garments on the road. 37 As soon as he got near the road down the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and to praise God with a loud voice because of all the powerful works they had seen, 38 saying: “Blessed is the one coming as the King in Jehovah’s name! Peace in heaven, and glory in the heights above!” 39 However, some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him: “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”40 But in reply he said: “I tell you, if these remained silent, the stones would cry out.”41 And when he got nearby, he viewed the city and wept over it, 42 saying: “If you, even you, had discerned on this day the things having to do with peace-but now they have been hidden from your eyes. 43 Because the days will come upon you when your enemies will build around you a fortification of pointed stakes and will encircle you and besiege* you from every side. 44 They will dash you and your children within you to the ground, and they will not leave a stone upon a stone in you, because you did not discern the time of your being inspected.
