Lesley's book actually helped me come to Islam. It has been a wonderful journey for the past year. Blessed are the people who investigate God's mystery with tolerance for all and curiosity about where we "meet". :) Assalamu Alaikum

It is actually a bit magic in how I found the koran also ( not in arabic but translated). I will share it. I was when I was about 17 years, my library School had a cleansing ( about twenty years ago), and all books that hadnt been borrowed was thrown in a big..what do I say..a big thing.. To be thrown away. And I like to read so I was in this garbage box, it was all piled up and I was digging for treasures. Carried home loads of book that Day, included the koran. I have had it for many years and all the other books I found that Day are gone..but this book has never left me. But I was never able to read it.. I did not get it. Until Now. Its like every word hits my heart, and I believe that it is truly a holy book. And i believe it is a bit magical how it came to me and how I was not able to read it before i was ready. Off course I know I may sound crazy...maybe we are all crazy..only God knows...

I don't understand what people have to gain by making crude comments about our Prophet (pbuh).

A blissful speech. No other religion have many outsiders defending it except Islam. The fact that she put the effort to reach out to non believers of Islam with all the positivity of Islam is awesome. May Allah bless her effort n open her heart to embrace Islam. Dun waste that one lil step towards Jannah.

Well, we know that this lady is agnostic and not a Muslim, but she is a human being !! And she used her right as a human to ask and search and doubt and read and analyze fairly.. And she made her own conclusion about it, no matter if she was wrong or right, but this is exactly what Allah/God wants from all of us through Quran, the straight speech of the almighty to our minds. He invites you to use your brains and hearts, forget about the almost two billions of Muslims and what does the mainstream media is telling about them, just go listen from the Quran itself & don't hear about it, talk to several muslims and don't just hear about them.. you will find that no one is forced to enter Islam, and you will find all the answers to your infinite questions. Just be fair and don't confuse between this or that, and then you can you say whatever you understood or concluded. Just let us be respectful and don't harm each other by insulting comments.

And terrorism is a dark agenda used by the "powerful" minority against the peaceful and weak majority.. It came from the verb "to terror", neither from Islam or Christianity or even Atheism.

9:5-6 But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. If one amongst the Pagans ask thee for asylum, grant it to him, so that he may hear the word of Allah. and then escort him to where he can be secure. That is because they are men without knowledge. Having presented the verse in context, we can analyze it properly. Dr. Maher Hathout gives an explanation on the historical context of the verse: This verse was revealed towards the end of the revelation period and relates to a limited context. Hostilities were frozen for a three-month period during which the Arabs pledged not to wage war. Prophet Muhammad was inspired to use this period to encourage the combatants to join the Muslim ranks or, if they chose, to leave the area that was under Muslims rule; however, if they were to resume hostilities, then the Muslims would fight back until victorious. One is inspired to note that even in this context of war, the verse concludes by emphasizing the divine attributes of mercy and forgiveness. To minimize hostilities, the Qur’an ordered Muslims to grant asylum to anyone, even an enemy, who sought refuge. Asylum would be granted according to the customs of chivalry; the person would be told the message of the Qur’an but not coerced into accepting that message. Thereafter, he or she would be escorted to safety regardless of his or her religion.

Baji Scipio Dārayav Aurelius Julian Venizelos Nalwa , Pew Research Center said "Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world and is expected to outstrip Christianity by the end of the century. The number of Muslims will grow more than twice as fast as the world's population from now until 2050. Religious switching, which is expected to hinder the growth of some other religious groups, is not expected to have a negative net impact on Muslims. Between 2010 and 2050, Christianity is projected to have a net loss of more than 60 million adherents worldwide through religious switching."

I guess you could credit her for granting access to the Prophet for a lot of people who do not know much about him. I just wish she had been fair to the Prophet(pbuh & hp) in relating us his biography and had chosen somebody other than ibn-Ishaq as a reference for traditions relating the events and people of the time. I had to look up explanations from the Shiite perspective to find out what actually happened because ibn Ishaq being influenced by the jews of the time did not accurately describe situations or events that arose during the time of the Prophet(pbuh & hp).

Respect. I'm Muslims, and I've made several Jewish friends throughout my university years. They have been nothing but decent, respectful folk. The prophet (pbuh) lived in Madina amongst Christians/Jews/Pegans in peace. They even came to his to settle disputes as well as leave money with him when they traveled. The prophet also borrowed money from a Jewish man once. Don't blame the religions, but the corrupt/greedy people who unfortunately run the world and pit us against each other. Peace!

I hope Allah guides Lesley Hazleton and us all, including non-muslims.

did they read the sura of deen(religion) it says, have seen the one who doe's not believe in religion; he is who keeps demanding the orphans and not command to feed handicapped, is this religion and gura;an whom raises terrorists I think the ones whom dropped the atomic pomp over children women and handicapped and old people in Hiroshima is more likely to be terrorist

stop saying shia, sunni, etc. let me ask you, are you a sunni? or a shia? if you choose one of those sects of islam, then you go to hell. Enough by saying I'm a muslim. I'm not a shia, i'm not a sunni, I'm a moeslem my religion is islam. can you say that? if you can't say that, what religion are you? sunni religion? or shia religion? think about what i'm saying.

Thanks Lesley for your truthfulness

oh jeez, please watch this video again and listen this time.

ذكرت في بداية كلمتها أنها محرجة من الحديث عن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم بين المؤمنين. يا سيدة: ليس عليك أن تحرجي فأنت بين أكفر خلق الله بمحمد! كيف يمكن لمحب محمد عليه الصلاة والسلام أن يكره أصحابه عليهم رضوان الله إلا أن يكون كاذبًا رافضيا ملعونا.

When ever you have a theocracy, which is what Islam strives to be, you are destined for a forced belief system. Religion is based on faith specifically because it cannot provide proof. Therefore a theocracy must compel it's citizens to to adopt the faith of choice and to accept the faith even though it cannot be defended with evidence. This is a society that at it's core simply cannot escape the shackles of mysticism and magical thinking because it cannot place evidence above faith without undermining the religion and the government. We see thought crimes and heresy and other irrational crimes inflicted on the non-Muslims in every single Islamic lead country. I know that separation of church and state is a uniquely US paradigm but the evidence shows that in all religiously run governments you do not see the citizens being encouraged to adopt diversity and new and different religions. This by the way is not unique to Islam

You could not be more wrong--Islam does not call for a theocracy. The first four caliphs, who are considered to be the Rightly Guided, did not claim to exercise any religious authority, only political authority based on popular support.

Is Sharia law the rule of law that Muslims should subscribe to? Is that not dictated by the Islamic doctrine? The rule of law in any society is the the true governance.

Please find a contemporary Islamic theocracy that encourages diversity? By the way can you explain to me what a caliphate is and how that fits into the Islamic theology? Next can you explain what the jizya is and why a non Muslim pays it?

hmmm "chosen leader(Calpih) that rules affairs of Muslims" that is the definition of a theocracy. Just because other people live in Islamic countries does not mean that they are encouraged to do so.

I am a Christian revert to Islam, Alhamdulilah, At first i was a christian questioning my faith and then slowly i became an atheist and i despised religion and religious people, but then i came to know Islam for what it truly is (not what others out there think it is, even though they put up misquotations from the Qur'an and Hadith that are out of context and claim that's what Islam truly is, like what this lady Lesley Hazleton said in the clip here.

يا ليت لو كانت المحاضرة مترجمة للغة العربية حتى لا تفوتنا بعض الكلمات و الجمل. شكرا

beautiful, so well said. Very enlightening!

George Bernard Shah for instance is one of many a long list of people who read this and realize the truth of Islam.When people see the truth of Islam they can change them if they want be guided,if they want the truth they can change them

She impressed me with her speech about Islam, wow... God bless you!

I as an ordinary Muslim try to follow my religion in the best possible way I could do and leave the rest to the creator until the day of judgement.
