Islam is the only religion in the world that has the solution to all the problems of humanity. Alhamdulillah Aamin

ALHAMDULILLAH. WOW!! Excellent lecture. Both the host right up to Imam Walid were professional, knowledgeable and truly do the deen wonders! My fellow Muslims, please forward this video out to other Muslims..insha Allah.

Ameen! May Allah be pleased with him! Astrafrallah! Even the people who ask him to speak about racism are racist because they only ask him to speak during black history month, smh! He is a sheik! He can speak about all manner of Islamic topics, all year round! May Allah open our minds and hearts!

جزاك الله خير

A very important topic in Islam.

Great topic and lecture. Alhamdulillah.

Alhumdulilah were us the rest of this lecture💖

May Allah preserve you brother. Through the permission of Allah you have helped the eman of many of us.

It's so interesting that this brother quoted the Bible "To whom much is given, much is expected" (Luke 12: 48). That is part of a parable in the Bible in which Jesus uses slavery as part of a parable. He speaks of a servant (slave) who behaves inappropriately when his master is gone _even though he knows what the master's wishes are_ . This slave was the head slave and treated the other slaves poorly and indulged in drinking knowing this is not what the master wanted. Jesus says that this abusive slave who is going against his master's wishes shall be beaten with many blows when the master shows up unexpected and sees what the slave has done. When Jesus said, "To whom much is given, much is expected", He is saying that the head slave had been given much and yet he abused his power and position and went against what God said. The analogy can be made, that those with white privilege should use their privilege to fight racism. Muslims of all people should be the first ones fighting racism and not perpetuating it because Allah (swt) through The Messenger (saw) told us not to do this. As a side note: many non-Muslims, particularly Christians, love to point out the analogies and references to slavery in Islam. They should read their Bible. Our Messenger (saw) EXPLICITLY spoke against slavery. Jesus of the Bible did not. Jesus used it as an analogy in parables, but never spoke out against it. Just sayin'

Tis is an important Qs being a pioneer Muslim Community in North/South America. Also it should be conveyed to other Muslim communities in North America.

Imam Dawud Walid just mysteriously transformed being late into being on time. He did this by his interpretation of the so-called authentic Hadith that says, " Whatever befell you was not going to pass you by. And whatever passed you by was not going to befall you." To me this so-called authentic Hadith completely absolves man from responsibility for his own condition. The Quran says whatever misfortune befalls man is from his own actions and whatever good befalls man is from Allah. Man's mistakes lead to his misfortunes. Man should be deeply concerned when bad things befall him. How else can he correct the mistake that led to the misfortune? This so-called authentic Hadith is saying whatever is going to happen is going to happen, so don't worry about it, which is crazy.

I can recall much misfortune which came to Nabi Muhammad and the Early Islamic community. So who would you say that those misfortunes and hardships came from?? They are called fitna, trials to test our faith. He sends them throughout the lives of His slaves. Instead of criticizing you need to study bro.

Great lecture. Unfortunately, some of the racism I see in our community is due to internalized colonial racism among many Muslim communities.

Where can a copy of this talk be obtained beyond You Tube?

السلام عليكم. What do you mean by "black"? And are you black?

Multiculturalism unfortunately brother dawud does not work. And you're not black, black in English means property. So beefor religion yu must have culchur

Racism is jahiliyyah, but how is he an imam if he doesn't even have proper tajweed?

Racism is jahilliyah and it still exists to among some Arabs and some Pakistani so-called Muslims. Such as YOU finding fault with this brothers speech. We African American Muslims don't wait for opportunities to criticize alien imams from other countries who come here and speak with us. Only racists do that.

Black people have always been the first bearers of Islam but there's little or no consideration for our efforts. Islam was welcomed in AFRICA when it was being rejected in Arabia and black Africans introduced Islam to America before any other community but now others pretend they don't know that. But Allah will judge justly!

CTR+ALT+DEL “How is he an imam if he doesn’t even have proper tajweed?” How is Muhammad a Prophet if he didn’t know how to read or write? Is your Deen perfect? With your comment, NO! You’re criticizing him about proper pronunciations in a language that isn’t his native tongue. As long as his Tawheed is proper it’s good enough for paradise.
