    if muslim countries practice islam for real
    dont you think we would rule the world ?!?!
    dont u think that if we follow the guidance of allh
    we would be the first in the world ?!?!
    because allh knows everything he knows what’s the best for us
    here in saudi you see corruption in everything
    people only practice islam in Superficial stuff
    i’m sorry to say that , of course not all of people
    but most of them … but glory is going back someday in sha allh
    may allh guide us all.

    This Brother was beautiful on the outside BUT now Alhamdulilah, he is beautiful on the inside <3

  5. SakeenahOnline says:

    May Allah release the brother soon from the kuffur. Subhanallah. They’ll try everything to suppress Islam, but they will always fail. This brother’s life is not as before, so how on earth would they arrest him for something done a whole long time ago? Laa hawla wa laa quwata ila billah. May Allah protect us all, and keep this brother and us all patient.

  8. SummayyahSeattle says:

    please say “born and raised/reared” muslim or “born into muslim families” I get the point but I hear so many people from cultures that also possess Islam say this and it almost nullifies the term *revert* but the quran validates it saying we are all born muslim upon the fitrah but it is the parents who turn their child into a jew, christian, or zorastrian, like i said, i get the point, im just asking for a better framing of the subject matter, from all of us in sha Allah

    god bless you my brother

  11. rahima1050 says:

    Sure im from UK where muslims are really most of them practicing Islam, but when i come here in Saudi was sort of shock how islam is not really practice most women i met are acting as if the hijab is being forced on them subhan Allah. when you are bless with being a muslim what sort of freedom are they looking for. May Allah guide us all. But Islam is prectice more in the west. Muslim countries are turning away from Islam but Allah is bring the light of Islam from somewhere else.

  15. DJRenee says:

    Lord Lord Lord, why is this brother being silenced??? I am moved and I am only 10minutes into this video….I am moved….and this is from a Catholic-Christian. Although I have never ever in my life had a problem with any other religious discipline…taught this by my Christian parents…we listened a lot to leaders of Islam as a child. Peace Be Unto You Amir…. through your struggle, May God Use you to Bless Millions….

  16. melekRebai says:

    U know brothers, we the ones born in a muslim family will never understand some of the things that a brother like this feels he experienced the same feelings that the companions of the prophet peace be upon him, because they were living in darkness and then they found Islam that brought them to light.
    And that is why i think that he seems so amazing when he speaks, his words come from the heart, god bless all Muslims.
    And Allah thank u for making me a Muslim, there is no greatest grace

    Allahu akbar! Allah’s mercy is without bounds. How Allah guides a person from complete darkness into light is only something He can do. May Allah love you and bless you brother and forgive us all for the wrongs we have done. Ameen.
