Thanks a lot
jazakumAllahukhairan from minneapolis, minnesota. you inspire me to make myself better. not be a dabbler. instead, to become more diligent and dileberate in all facets of life. i started studying arabic for a little over a year now. it has truly shown me the value of language and its true place in human existence with a clarity i was never even able to imagine before. i truly love your effort with zaytuna and pray Allah (SWT) preserves you and the program making it a benefit for the world!

How is life how is it going after 10 years?
It would be very nice if the Shaikh could suggest a reading list of great poems and literature such as the poems he discusses here.
this man is extraordinary
subhanAllah, may Allah grant spouses like this for our sisters . such a beautiful person mashaAllah
This is by far one of the most inspiring lectures i have ever heard...ALLAHU AKBAR May Allah bless you Shaykh Hamza...you are a TRULY WONDERFUL MUSLIM AND HUMAN BEING.
Assalaam-o-Alaikum wa Rahmatulla: Jazaakallhu Khairan I have this book (How to read a book) in both print and in audio format. I find Shaykh Hamza's comments very enlightening. His words add another dimension to the understanding of the original text. I would listen to these lecture over and over again. I would strongly recommend these lectures very strongly to anyone who is interested in learning to read in depth, which, as Shaykh Hamza has mentioned so gracefully, is the key to our tradition.
JAK .. not only for the knowledgeable sheikh Hamza, but for all the students who attended and those who contributed in other ways for us to be able to watch this amazing lecture.
mashallah
I just found these lectures , I’m very grateful thank you الله يبارك لك و يسعدك
May Allah Bless You Sheik!
I just realised why people love poetry
yearning to be in that library.
is it possible that Zaytuna have lecture for logic that upload to youtube, thanks.
Thank you Zaytuna and thank you Shaykh Hamza!
Jazakullah for this lecture. I enjoyed both parts!
What an amazing lecture! Thank you, Hamza.
Barakallohu fiik syakh, love all your talks.
love u for the Sake of Allah swt brother Hamza, You are such an Intelligent and Bright Individual
I love this
MaschaAllah , nice lecture
♥ Simply amazing!! ♥
JazakAllah
A good lecture none the less.
god pleased you shaykh
Alsalam Alaikom Thank you very much for posting such an informative and insightful lectures. I would suggest providing a mic to the audience for us on the other side so we could listen to their questions. Thank you again. Regards from Saudi
alll things shining
Brilliant
I have recently been reading Hegel and Schleiermacher; and I defy anyone to understand what they mean first time around!
14:26 i like how the camera man zooms out to show all of the commentary
Jazakum Allahu Khayran. Truly enjoyable. Question: Does Zaytuna have any online classes? I would love to apply
salaam, when is part 3 going to be uploaded ?!? jazakallah khayr =)
Great Lecture Mashallah, i would like to know the Shaykh's opinion on Dyslexia....Im not sure how to do this...I hope the organisers can post something. Salam
i have some questions to ask.is there anyway i can contact him? Also the books you have recommended, i had a look of them and they dont describe the Authors and publisher name as i found some with similar names.i live in Australia and too keen to learn from Shaykh Hamza.i liked vision and work of Zaytuna College.
What book is the Sheik holding. Can someone please tell me? Thanks!!
I made the same generalization about Bollywood films
this book is so hard to read.. im struggling just to reach halfway
does anyone know the difference between the 40s edition and the newer one, since the shaykh recomends the 40s edition
Logic, mantiq?
what the name of the book he said about sport?
I would like a reading list (in the order to read) for a muslimah. For example, start with The Sealed Nectar, etc, and then what, Purification of the Heart.. etc etc. I would be grateful if Hamza Yusuf or someone of knowledge would give me the top 10 or 20 etc reading lists about Islam/self-development/non-fiction (with maybe some classics). I see on Hamza Yusufs Website he recommended Sense and Sensibility and a couple of Dostoevsky's books..
what's the name of the book again? That one Imam Hamza read twice.
It's 'How to Read a Book' by Mortimer Jerome Adler, first written in 1940, but the later edition (1972 - if I'm not mistaken) has some contributions from Charles Van Doren.
@bukkietime101 Let me start by saying this isn't a criticism. I also watch good videos multiple times. In part 1 Shaykh Hamza speaks about reading as being an active engagement, but watching video is a passive engagement. Here is an example. I ride mtb and I watch videos about how to ride different types of terrain or get through technical sections. Those videos give me a GOOD IDEA about how to do those things, but I won't KNOW HOW until I get on the bike and try doing it.
@humanadvice They are inshallah planning an online free teaching option for those unable to attend. It consists of lectures like these and will include a lot more in the future inshallah. Most Ivey League schools are now offering an "online" portion of their school for those who have difficulty in actually being there and paying. I know Zaytuna is also adopting that soon, but they have enough on their hands, so we have to be patient inshallah. Also, apply for a scholarship. Most do. Ur in my dua
he was very accurate about bolywood :D
google,hamza yusuf book recommendations
thumbs up if you waiting eagerly for part 3!
never seize ?

I tried to leave a nice post about this shaykh, and it would not post
@humanadvice Zaytuna College offers generous scholarships to those who are unable to afford the tuition. This is all dependent upon the financial support of the Muslim community.
@halimaali sheikhhamzaDotcom/recommendations/
@halimaali sheikhhamzaDOTcom/recommendations/
@humanadvice let the community get together and give a scholarship to someone trusted who'll teach what s/he learned at zaytuna upon return. also, dr bilal philips online islamic university is tuition free, so there's always that option.
