love n respect between the brotherhood in islam is priceless.
Amazing episode as usual. I always like listening to Ustadh Roshan may Allah bless him.
Amazing, balanced episode from Dilly who, as always, knows what questions to put forward. And Ustadh Mobeen who knows what he's talking about and has first-hand experience with the Muslim communities around which he's living. Ma Sha' Allah. Good job.
bro the sneezes the sniffles, bro get urself rechecked..i'd cancel interview after 3rd sneeze..but this respectful rabbi stayed put... TIL jews r put in timeout by GOD for sinfulness for them to go out its like breaking detention..for this israel has transgressed against god n wont ever be successful without GOD, moses said it.. it was messiah's job to bring back jews but seems zionist wanted got angry at God n decided to break away from detention n think they have suceeded, so a suspension is due once God brings back. Rabbi was clear n thoro, respectful gentleman.
