FEEDBACK FROM YOUTH SHOW ON RADIO RAMADAN SHOWS - READING!

"TAKE 1! YOUTH SHOW
SATURDAY 6TH September
Guests were Ayaz, Mehdi and Parvez.

We covered background to Ministry of Dawah, Marriage and the youth and how to connect to the youth generally. There were many calls and text msgs sent during and after the show asking questions. After the show we received text messages asking for the Ministry of Dawah website and where people can listen to their talks. Many people in the community were asking that evening after Taraweeh prayers about where the guests were from and how they liked their straight forward style.

TAKE 2! BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!
Thurs 18th September
Guests were Ayaz, Mehdi and Faisal

We covered what Ramadan means to the youth, Drugs awareness and Ayaz entertained us with some impressions of what he thought certain famous people would say if they impressed Islam in the future. We had an excellent response with people calling and texting in questions during the show. One of the local internet cafés sent a text msg in describing the show as “Excellent… exactly what people need to hear” and said that he was recording the show and will be uploading it to his website. This show became a big talking point in the community and almost everyone who came into the radio station the next few days after the show commented on it – many people rated this show as the best youth show of all Ramadan."

Differences of Opinion! Difference in Deen??



Why are there so many opinions? How can there be so many opinons? Which one is right? Dont these opinions create disunity? Why do people hold different points of view so strongly? Why did Allah allow this disunity? How can we ever unite, when we all have difference opinions? Should we all have the same opinion? Wasn't there only one Prophet Muhammed - so why so many opinions? Are these all made up? So can't I pick and choose opinions to suit me? Why do people with different opinons end up arguing over which one is better or stronger? Why do I need to follow a scholar or opinion or madhab? Isn't that like creating sects or divisions in the religion? If you do, then dont you end up following the Iman or Scholar or Sheikh instead of Allah and His Messanger? Shouldn't we just follow Quran and Sunnah??

...HELP!

Come and finally share.. your Opinion... and Ours!

Oh! ..and find the answers to all these questions too! ;)

WILL ISLAM TAKE US BACK TO THE DAYS OF THE CAMEL??



A common misconception is that if we live in an true Islamic Society now we will go back to the dayes of sand, camels and turbans... but is this the truth? Is Islam uncivilised? Backward? Anti-technology? anti-modernisation?

Come and dicover that or 1500 year history tells us the opposite - that infact, Islamic societies pavaed the way for scienes, technology and learning - it was the beacon of humanity and the most advanced culture of its time. It brought us alcohol, mathamatics, geography, maps, science, algebra, 3 course meals, coffee and coffee shop culture, universities, turkish delight, soft sweets, sheehsa, halwa, free education, medicine, botony, astronomy, mint tea and much much more...

Also come and meet Sidi the camel!! ;)

THE TRIAL CONTINUES - IS RELIGION THE CAUSE OF ALL WARS?



A common misconception is that religion is the cause of all wars - so they say let's get rid of it altogether! The less religion the better - so less people will have to argue about (?). Religions cause arguments.. Many people think that religion teaches its followers to think like - "I'm right.. You're wrong.. You should be killed.. I cant accept your opinion - only MINE is from God!". As these irrational silly beilefs are down to something you can never prove then the only option is that they fight.. so people of different religions fight.. right? I mean look at Palestine?

..Is this the truth? Is Islam like this? Come and find out and judge for yourself - as the trail continues...

Quran.. ON TRIAL! How do you plead?



Prosecution: “The Qur’an is an outdated book that can not be applied in the modern world. It promotes hatred and violence, it discriminates against non-believers and women. It is a backward and baseless book. It is an unpreserved document with many contradictions.”

Defence: “The Qur’an is a timeless miracle. It is a preserved text that has solutions for humanity’s problems. It provides the basis for peace, tolerance, justice, progress and prosperity.”

So many attacks on the Quran these days.. So we are going to have the court case style event! A Judge, Jury, Plaintiff and Defendant.. There will be a case brought against the Quran.. Is it a book of Hate? Violence? Contradictions? Brainwashing? Nonsense?

Come down and hear the case against the Quran - defend the Book of Allah (is it?) - Hear and Learn the arguments and the correct way to defend and explain the truth against these attacks- spread the message - fight ignorance and darkness Defend the Deen!

We will be having our SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER (and a MOD Favourite and Fan) Hamza Andreas Tzortzis, a greek convert to Islam, is an international lecturer on Islam and especially the Quran, public speaker, freelance writer, author and peaceful activist. He has debated prominent academics, intellectuals, Christian Professors, Scientists, Atheists, Agnostics and public speakers all over Europe, America and The Muslims World and had numerous media appearances.

How do you plead??

Isra & Mi'raj - The Night Journey of Prophet SAW



As the aniversary of Al Isra Wal Miraj Approaches.. The Night Journey, on a creature with the face of a human, wings like a bird and body of a horse... All the way from Arabia to Al-Quds, Palestine - to the Rock (from the Dome of the Rock) and then onto the seven heavens.. To witness all Prophets, Heaven, Hell and talk to Allah...

Come and hear this powerful spiritual story retold.. and hear how this story still should shake our hearts and provoke our minds to come back to the deen and refect upon these powerful lessons...

But did you know... When this was revealed, many Muslims left Islam and Muhammed SAW, sayin that he had gone crazy! Will you still stick by his Deen and Message even today? In the face of such hostitlity and mockery? Would you go out and say you beileve that your Prophet saw sat on a creature that was a a man/horse/bird? What will you do when your faith is shaken and you feel stupid to open your mouth?

Learn the arguments - Spread the message - Defend the Deen!
