honestly this verse "they forget god, so he made them forget themselves" is the most terrifying verse in the Quran for me

This man is a deep thinker and Allah has blessed him with deep understanding

Surah Ta Ha 20:124 But whoever turns away from My Reminder ˹the Qur’ān˺ will certainly have a miserable life, then We will raise them up blind on the Day of Judgment. ‎وَمَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَن ذِكْرِى فَإِنَّ لَهُۥ مَعِيشَةًۭ ضَنكًۭا وَنَحْشُرُهُۥ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ أَعْمَىٰ

HATSOFF MY BROTHER, DECODING THE MATRIX VIA QUR'AN AS A REVERT IN A SUCH SHORT TIME. MASHALLAH , ALLAH HAS GUIDED YOU IN AN EXCELLENT WAY.

"If you're not defining who you are, anybody else can define you ". This is spot on. Humans are not free in this capitallist world, they start programing you from the moment you start learning to speak, from cartoons to school to career. Quran will own your eyes on the truth of this world and help you gain back some of the freedom they took from you. Allhamdulillah for the gift of Islam we really don't know how blessed we are with this Deen.

Surah Al Kahf (the cave) 103. Say, [O Muhammad], “Shall we [believers] inform you of the greatest losers as to [their] deeds? 104. [They are] those whose effort is lost in worldly life, while they think that they are doing well in work.” 105. Those are the ones who disbelieve in the verses of their Lord and in [their] meeting Him, so their deeds have become worthless; and We will not assign to them on the Day of Resurrection any importance.

Know you from tiktok but stopped using tiktok for my mental health. Good to see you here brother.

He psychologically explained everything perfectly.

وَإِن تَتَوَلَّوْا يَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُوا أَمْثَالَكُم} 9 [38]. You guys are the new ummah may Allah help you and gives you strength to spread his deen and may allah have mercy on us we failed the mission 😭😭 keep spreading the truth

Glory and praise to Allah, your look gives me a mysterious vibe in a beautiful way.

Bro the English translation of the Quran is so generic and so simple, it doesn't convey the power of Quran's literature. If you're truly interested in the Quran, you need to learn Arabic and experience it in it's full glory.

Welcome to the religion of Truth ❤

I thought losing oneself could only mean losing the hereafter and your explanation helped me understand how much depth there is to this one sentence. That's wild!

Yes, walking the path that is destined to us feels very lonely. Technically we are far from lonely we have guides, souls, creator himself around us but the illusion of this world makes us feel lonely .

I hear the same story every time, people grow up getting bullied because they refused to fit in with the crowd. That's exactly my life story, I was also able to see through the BS of going to college and getting a degree and job to satisfy my parents. It's like we live in a zombie society of people that want you to be a programmed zombie like everybody else and they put you down if you don't or refuse to. In my teen years, I finally gave in and tried to fit in by listening to secular music and indulging in what ever was considered cool by society despite me naturally thinking that stuff was embarrassing as a kid and God punished me by making me go through depression and anxiety in my teen years. Then I finally found God again in my early adult years and at 26 I have so much knowledge that I believe would benefit people but most wouldn't listen.

Hadith Text: "If you truly knew Allah (Exalted is He), you would walk on the seas and with your prayer, mountains would move. If you feared Allah properly, you would attain knowledge without ignorance. However, no one has reached this level." It was asked, "O Messenger of Allah, not even you?" He replied, "Even I; isn't Allah (Exalted and Mighty) greater than any person can comprehend? (His essence and the reality of His actions are beyond understanding)." Narrator: Hz. Muaz (may Allah be pleased with him) Source: Ramuz al-Ahadith, page 357, hadith 8

I completely relate. In London, I saw complete zombies all around me. These people have no clue who they are, just work money making machines, they won’t smile they are so unpleasant. And I always reflected back to this verse…

Brother you found the truth May God Guide you

I'm dealing with jinn possession. TBH I looked up the verse you mentioned and have it on repeat. I'm reacting to it. I'm thankful. Please keep exposing shayateens. ❤

i watched this more than 5 times. i wish u could expand more regarding character flaws and how to work on them. Allah bless you bro. maybe i needed to hear this.

I am a revert too, and I love Islam. But, I would like to be very frank for the love Allah and Islam, that if any of Islam's virtuous principles need wider acceptance and appreciation from across all cultures, it's important to promote the concept that "the purest sunnah without a shadow of doubt is to FOLLOW THE QURAN ALONE." Because that's exactly what the Prophet adhered to and nothing else. The truth of the matter is, there is not one monolithic Islam today in the internet age. There is Islam with a capital I based purely on the Quran, the only preserved and protected revelation from God, and then, there are many different shadows of Islam (sects) based on teachings other than the verbatim word of God, the Quran. But each of these shadows consider themselves as the sole inheritor of the truth which the Prophet received. All of them appropriate for themselves all the greatness which only ISLAM with a capital I deserves. As far as shadow Islam goes, there is no greater deception, than the concept of Sunnah which they subscribe to without realizing what it does to true Quranic Islam. It is this concept that has successfully managed to eclipse the original ISLAM with a capital I, which you will be able to see only through the plain text of the QURAN. The purest form of Sunnah, is to fulfill all the obligations of the Quran including the clear command of not taking any other source of guidance or authority other than the Quran alone. Yet, if one really needs to, one may take the help of the Hadiths ONLY and merely to fulfill the obligations of the Quran but beyond that every problem faced by Muslims is because of following other than the Quran as a primary source of divine guidance. Or at least be open to questioning all the clear contradictions between Quran and Hadiths on more than 20 matters of great signicance. Especially, the character assignation of the noble Prophet (swa) by the so called authentice Hadith books written more than 200 years after the death of the Prophet (swa), which the Prophet himself never verified or attested to. Just like Talmud made the Torah irrelevant, the Hadiths have made the Quran almost irrelevant. The biggest problem with Islam today is a hadeeth centric Muslim. The definition of a hadeeth-centric Muslim - when it comes to all controversial issues which make Islam seem barbaric and even immoral (e.g death for Apostacy, death for Adultery, death for Blasphemy, shameful attacks on the Prophet's character, doubts about preservation of the Quran, death/I'll treatment of Homosexuals, ill-treatment of women, ill-treatment of jews, ill-treatment of christians, ill-treatment of other non muslims the list goes on), although there is clear a contradiction between the Quran and the hadeeth in each of these controversial matters which make Islam look deeply problematic, a hadeeth centric muslim goes only with hadeeth based interpretation, instead of clear Quran-centric guidance is called a unthinking official 'hadeeth-centric Muslim' for whom the honor of a book like Bukhari and Muslim is far more important, than the honor of his Prophet, or the honor of Islam or even the honor of Allah himself. Also, such a Muslim is also someone who is obsessed with his Scholars their "SCHOLARLY opinions, fatwas, and khauls' even when they clearly go against the ayaat of Allah himself. If you are a Muslim reading this, please choose if you wanna be hadeeth-centric Muslim or a Quran-centric Muslim. Being Quran-centric does not mean you dump all hadeeths but dump only those which contradict the Quran, demonizes the character of the Prophet (Pbuh) or goes against the spirit of Islaam, and goes against the universal laws of justice and Fitrah. Fear Allah, not your scholars or those who are obsessed with those professional scholars for dollars.

U describe me and my life. I have always found myself different from me and people can’t comprehend what I’m talking about. Allah explains everything in the Quran

Jazakamu Allahu khairan May Allah reward you with goodness.

I Can listen this guy all day long..Seriously It really feels great to hear these valuable words ! Please you never stop talking about the truth sir !! Very pleasure to see and meet you on youtube❤❤❤

Your KZfaq content is way better! Keep it up 👏🏼

Hey Devon, I just binged watch all your videos and ofcourse gave you love in all lol. I just want you to know that there are many of us who admire, respect and love you. Please keep the knowledge and personal experiences coming. You teach us alot. My name is yaseen and I support you all the way from south africa! Don't ever give up even when the road gets tough, we are with you till the end!

6:37 If you are not defining who you are, anybody else can define you. 👍

Ya Allah ...this is something I've been thinking about recently and I couldn't put it in words and you described it perfectly..Mashallah Muslim born learn from reverts

Allah SWT is very, very straightforward in his message and it is incredible.

Please never stop !

I've no idea about what you've proven in your book. But your truthful answer about anxiety and depression is spot on. Bravo! Anyone who is wondering what he said listen from 2:30 to 3:00.

You know you were on my mind whole this time since your first video came out. Thank you for coming out. please share your thoughts on Islam. I'm born Muslim. But seeing people converting from such backgrounds makes my Iman more stronger in Allah. More power to you. stay blessed and stay close to Deen.

As an ethnic Muslim is always touches me to see white people speaking about Islam. Your wearing my flag is very meaningful to me…..

It's amazing watching you evolving in the right direction using your past knowledge about the wrong direction... One of the prophet ( pbuh) companions was always asking him about evil while every one else asking about how to do good... Later after the prophet (pbuh) past away... When fitnah started every one turned to him because they only know the good but he was helping people to understand how the evil thinks and works to avoid it.

Shukran for your videos Brother. Since your a revert from the occult, were gaining more insight on our enemies. Keep it up. May Allah bless you.

Brother! i don’t really comment but bro wow!! u r just there! on the right path going forward, please continue and don’t get down or destructed by anything, i am Arab and I’m amazed when Allah said this Quran not for Arabs or none Arabs it’s only for the believers and your just a pure example! Bro just stuck with quran and increase ur believe (iman) by loving allah and loving the prophet and by knowing who u r the immortal eternal ❤

Bro big respect for coming out of darkness!

I identify so much to this: "every single time you have a conversation it just feels extremely meaningless, there is no energy behind anybody's eyes anymore." "either I am absolutely insane, or society is just out of their minds" It's quite impossible to speak to people who has any experience, everyone looks like everyone else. "Hey, I'm Mr. Meeseeks look at me". Life changed though, it did not used to be this way, growing up, it felt a lot better. It's curious you picked that line of the Quran to explain this phenomena, it would be interesting to deep dive into why it meant what it meant to you.

The volume is a bit off. But to hear these gems beaming Light on the darkness of my road towards the path of Light. Some volume adjustment apps works Wonders. Thanks for these beautiful insight! May God guide all of us towards the path and life that He is Pleased with.

"The hypocrites, men and women, are like unto one another, enjoining wrong, forbidding right, clutching their hands shut. They forgot God, so He forgot them. Truly the hypocrites are iniquitous." 9:67

Everything is with "Allah" and "He" gives it to whom "He" wills (knowledge)

I love the way you explain everything thank you! Your channel is so informative and is helping me articulate my knowledge in islam. I'm able to finally answer those tiny questions in my head, that lingered rent free. You're so intelligent mashallah, may Allah grant you honor and respect ameen!

you're a genius, may allah swt reward you with janna< stay strong brother

Elhamdülillah you understand Islam, very happy for you Peace and blessings to you all inşallah many will embrace islam the straight path the truth. Elhamdülillah ❤

Subhanallah. Allah's veil is truly beautiful. And I love learning various people's interpretation of the Quran. Ash Shura verse 52 explaining how the Quran is not a book that is simply ink on paper, it is a spirit that recognizes the one who recites it and grants guidance which they are deemed worthy of. وَلٰـكِنۡ جَعَلۡنٰهُ نُوۡرًا نَّهۡدِىۡ بِهٖ مَنۡ نَّشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا​ ؕ وَاِنَّكَ لَتَهۡدِىۡۤ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسۡتَقِيۡمٍۙ‏ (42:52) Even so We revealed to you, (O Prophet), a spirit by Our command.(Ere to that) you knew neither what the Book nor what the faith was But We made that spirit a light whereby We guide those of Our servants whom We please to the Right Way. Surely you are directing people to the Right Way,

Well done. LEARNING IN ISLAM NEVER ENDS... MASTER THE QURAN

Salam bro, Masha Allah ur vids r so refreshing cz like u said its like the world is so empty when u look around sometimes. But ppl like u remind me that there are still ppl left with some intellect. 👏

So true, may Allah strengthen and protect you brother

MashAllah brother watching all the videos. And also subscribed. Cannot wait for your channel to reach manyyy people. May Allah swt keep you steadfast, protected and reward you .

The masses follow others' expectations. Parents, society, friends etc. They lie to themselves that they want what they've been taught they should want. But they slowly become miserable and dead inside from living inauthentically.

Great take brother, Just yesterday I had a conversation with a friend about the importance of having self-awareness and I mentioned this verse

When I talk to people it’s like the music video from the song ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’. Everything goes over people’s heads, they’re apathetic and indifferent to the point where I want to gag.

This guy is so funny. He always makes these hilarious comparisons. "My aunt Carol"

hello from central asia

The world is changing.

You are over thinking this. You are having the experience you are having because you are not loving these people. It isn't anything they are doing it's all about how you are perceiving them. I know because when I was your age I did the exact same thing. I am 76 now. I have learned to accept and love everyone exactly as they present themselves. Life can be difficult, exhausting at times, give them the benefit of the doubt. See then as your family and it all suddenly changes. Try it, you will like it. Love and blessings, alsalam ealaykum.

I believe you, Dravon.. Allah loves us and has assigned angels to take care of us and protect us❤

I disambiguated your notes a little bit, one of your main points is that society is suffering from a lack of individuality, and what this causes is a lack of confidence in individuals. Further, this leads to people becoming heavily or unnecessarily medicated. Yes, this is a problem, for which you suggest developing individuality and uniqueness will combat. However, individuality is a very western construct. Individuality is not inherently bad, but when compounded with things like capitalism and what it has done to the common man, this can be very disadvantageous and result in isolation. Are there any thoughts on this?

Wow, I wish I had your wisdom when I was your age young man. I love the way you explain things, I think you can relate to everyone, but even better to teenagers and up. Sounds like you have done the work to gain emotional intelligence with utilizing the knowledge of the Quran. I’m forwarding your channel to my son who is a teenager because I think your way will connect with him good. Of course, Allah bless you and your family, and I’m so proud to see how well you understand things. I was different growing up, and my son is different too. We never conformed to what they call “normal”, we should celebrate our differences. Kind of like when Allah said he divided us into tribes so that we could know one another.

This was the best video i have ever seen in my life.. Thank you so much😊😊. May allah bless you with more knowledge. Thank you so much

Excellent insights, shukran. And yes i also struggle finding people who are willing to have meaningful conversations beyond sport, gossip, series etc

Maybe that is the speech i needed

very interesting, we read but dont understand. thanks for sharing.

Nothing is more grounding then knowing who created us and why. Athiests ridicule those who pose these questions telling everyone they’re running away from the absurdity of existence while they’re the ones running away from the burden of such questions Your take on the aya is very interesting and I thought the american society is not the type where people impose their opinions on each other but it’s everywhere it seems

Amazing insight into alot of things....why most of the world are like zombies...is because they are not their primordial self...its through faith ..true love for Allah and His beloved Messenger sallahu alahi wa ahle wasalam that that we can conquer our nafs and connect with our ruh

Mashallah brother

I love hearing your perpective on Ayahs of the Quran that I have glanced over many times before. Amy Allah reward you and guide us all.

Very rightly said.. most People are like zombies , we also always say that when we step outside our hones.. Thank you for your analysis. Quran definitely frees you from this material world .. Its when you truly become free .. Else we are just following the narratives of the one we are to serve here in this world and that too for peanuts

May Allah enlighten your path brother ❤

Love the perspective and the depth 💯

Asalamoalakum brother, I’m a 42 year old revert of 20 years. If you ever wana talk sometime let me know. ‘The prophet SAW said you are on the way of your close friends’. So please keep good Muslims around you brother. Asalamoalakum .

Thank you brother for your insight..may Allah saw bless your journey and reward your efforts to understand His words.❤❤

Given your background and then entering into the light of God has given you a deeper understanding of existence that even many Muslims fail to grasp. I'd sure like to have a discussion with you some day. Keep learning brother

What you’re explaining is so true. I do this all the time.Thanks for reminding us. Love the way you explain. May God bless you. You are a lovely person.❤🙏✌🏽👍

Amazing...I can add that Allah has a unique place in the world for all humans...we have a nagging feeling inside us that we follow to fulfill that fitrah that Allah wanted us to follow, because anything done is either for yourself or for Allah, no for the world

I came to Islam almost 14 years ago now, I was previously an atheist with an interest in the occult, and reading the Qur'an convinced me that I was wrong, my position was wrong, and that God DOES exist, this reality and everything within it has a Creator. I just want to say to you Brother that your videos are great, and also want to say don't fall into the trap of the hadith texts. Other Muslims are going to tell you that you need hadith to follow Islam and that is NOT true. Allah tells us that the Qur'an is fully detailed in 6:114, that it is an explanation of all things in 12:111, 16:89 and 17:12, and also tells us that the Qur'an is sufficient in 29:51 So The Qur'an is enough, it contains all the details we need, and it explains everything that we need it to. In 25:30 The Qur'an says that Muhammad will say on Judgement day "My Lord, My People have abandoned the Qur'an" (Notice here he's not concerned with the idea that they may have abandoned his words or any of his sayings, and is only concerned with the fact they've abandoned the Qur'an) And finally, Allah asks us the following rhetorical question in 45:6... "These are the verses of Allah, we recite them to you in truth, then in which HADITH after Allah and his verses, will they believe?" - The Qur'an 45:6 Peace and God's blessings be with you Brother. Just wanted to give you the heads up because I guarantee your channel is goin to get flooded with Muslims, some of whom will be telling you that you should follow hadith. Note: The hadith also contradict the Qur'an.

That introduction is unbelievably accurate.

Tip to New Muslims or converted one's : to understand Quran always read it with Tafseer not just reading translation that oh it mean this and that by feeding the translation straight to your mind. Quran is very deep on verse have multiple references to events , problems etc. so its better to read with Tafseer when you in research mode , otherwise just read arabic in normal day to day mode.

Brother you are doing great job may Allah Accept your effort ❤

And among men there is one who worships Allah (standing) on the verge: so if some good thing happens to him, he is satisfied with it, and if a trial befalls him, he turns his face back. He loses both this world and the Hereafter. That is the manifest loss. { وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن یَعۡبُدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ حَرۡفࣲۖ فَإِنۡ أَصَابَهُۥ خَیۡرٌ ٱطۡمَأَنَّ بِهِۦۖ وَإِنۡ أَصَابَتۡهُ فِتۡنَةٌ ٱنقَلَبَ عَلَىٰ وَجۡهِهِۦ خَسِرَ ٱلدُّنۡیَا وَٱلۡـَٔاخِرَةَۚ ذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡخُسۡرَانُ ٱلۡمُبِینُ } [Surah Al-Ḥajj: 11]

2:45 I think it was u who I got this info from. Depression from past. Anxiety from future.

I have stumbled upon this channel Alhamdulilah your videos are amazing

My brother your very intelligent. Astaghfirlallah i also mad the wrong step but led me to the right path. Allah swt is truly amazing. I can fathom your information and able to work out and sinplify further knowledge, we must help you spread around but i font have sny social media. May allah keep you steadfast

Sufyan al-Thawri: 'There will come a time upon the people where the bodies will be alive, but the souls will die.'

may Allah guide you further into the straight path

Welcome to İslâm brother, may Allah ( SWT) grant you Jannah ❤

Please make daily vids it would be amazing ❤

Bro's comparisons always catch me off guard. He says them with a straight ahh face and moves on like he ain't just said what he just said and I'm like hold what did he just say and I start gackling

Your channel is very informative and educational. Thank you brother.

Brother… ur a living legend! 👊🏼💯

don't know if I'm tripping but I can hear subtle breathing in the background of your video. I thought it was you at first but as you was talking I could still hear it. Let me know if you can hear it too I noticed it at around 5:25

I refer to the VERSE U mentioned & the end word is fasiquun. MY knowledge is very little but from the little that I knew, fasiq means sinners.

yes this is exactly what I think! thank you for shedding light on this!

Thank you deconstructing this issues that effect specifically this generation, every human need a goal in life to persuade without it just you standing in same place no progress even if you worship God, our prophet pbuh The believer who mixes with people and is patient with their harm is greater in reward than the one who does not mix with them and is not patient with their harm. its must be set of goals and inspiration and challenging Allah then will help and bless you to overcome everything eventual and have no regret.

May Allah reward you handsomely, brother!

Hey Dravon, nice to meet you. I would love to hop on a casual call with you. My name is Muhammad Abdullah Malik. I am a Muslim, father of 2 daughters and devoted to learning & embracing knowledge and spirituality in my daily life. When you mentioned Surah Yusuf in a video... bro... it changed my life. Here you mentioned that you go out and you observe zombies and there's no one to talk to and have a meaningful discussion - can totally relate. I would love to have that sort of a conversation. Let me know if we can work out something. Stay blessed

I usually only have deep talk with my close friends but I also talk a lot by myself when in need to gain clarity, processing an interaction or situation Ive been in. But my mom (muslim family) tells me it's not a good thing to talk by myself cause jinns are listening but what wrong can it really do? I don't wish good or bad things, I mostly just analyse situations, kinda like you would do in front of a camera or with someone. It's like oral journaling basically and it helps me calm my anxiety. But I also fear it can have negative effects on my mental health or energy

brother do not stop going on the path of your lord and obey him

Hi Dravon there is a playlist of Army of Satan from the chanel Rational Believer it should be interesting to watch

I have had the same experience as you i never wanted to fit in a box just to please society Alhamdulilah i am my own person i am thankful i am not miserable and i don’t bother pleasing humans this worldy life isn’t worth pleasing i want to live a fulfilling life Alhamdulilah im happy im muslim Islam taught me so much good and so much truth with what’s going on in todays world thank you for your videos keep going 🙌❤️❤️
