Ma’sha’allah, I’ve only watched Part 1 at this point (will come back later for Part 2), but this is an excellent lecture – I hope many will take the time to watch and listen. It is an important, relevant and concerning issue of course and some of the other general points that come up in the context of this issue also need to be addressed in a larger sense within our communities.
Jazak’Allahu Khairan
Amazing Masha Allah.
Content is great but delivery is superb.
Ma Sha Allah. Good message. Is it just me or does the shaikh sound like he’s doing spoken word? That threw me off just a little.
Yeah, I noticed that about him. He starts off his speeches like that, but by the end it’s normal.
Thank you for bringing this lecture to our attention.
Subhan’Allah I sat here & cried just watching Pt.1 – it truly hits home. JazakAllahu Khayran for posting these videos.
Allah bless you for posting this lecture. This is what Muslim men need to hear, because too many of us do not implement the Prophetic example. Allah knows best.
I think this was a great introduction to the topic of domestic abuse in the Muslim community. But there is still a lot to be said and done. Many abused Muslim women feel that the Qu’ran supports abuse because of the quote in Sura Nisa (4:34) where there is a reference made about men striking/beating/touching their disobedient wives . I would love to see an article addressing that quote in particular and how it impacts and guides the relationship between Muslim men and women in our world today.
JazakAllahu Khayran for highlighting this issue in our community. May Allah help our Ummah heal ourselves.
Here is an article about the use of the word ‘daraba’ in the Qur’an. Many scholars have determined that the word should be translated as ‘seperate’ not ‘hit.’ http://karamah.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Domestic-violence-Islamic-Perspective-FINAL.pdf

Subhan’Allah…incredibly emotional. Hearing something like THIS gives me strength to cope with the things I have been through and seen in my life. Allahuakbar. May Allah (swt) reward Imam Latif for addressing this… It may be the first time I have ever heard this topic being addressed. And putting into coherent words exactly how UN alone it has made me feel seems to be impossible.
May Allah (swt) protect our women, our boys, our men, our young girls… All those who are going through the struggle. May Allah protect us ALL. Ameen.
Jazaakum Allahu Khairun
