The key moments:
[00:33] Al-Fiṭrah And The Five Necessities.

[00:43] “The fiṭrah that Allāh created people with.” [Sūrah Ar-Rūm 30:30]
[01:25] كُلُّ مَوْلُودٍ يُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ، فَأَبَوَاهُ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ أَوْ يُنَصِّرَانِهِ أَوْ يُمَجِّسَانِهِ،
[01:35] Every child is born upon al-fiṭrah (the natural inclination) [Bukhārī & Muslim]
[04:18] Ibn Taymiyah (رحمه الله) said, ‘if something occurs, someone must have caused it.’
[04:44] “Is there any doubt about Allāh, the Originator of the Heavens and Earth?” [Sūrah Ibrāhīm 14:10]
[05:03] The arguments and proofs in the Qur’ān are based on: 1. The fiṭrah. 2. Sound Reasoning
3. Psychological Arguments.

[06:56] Any person with a fiṭrah - a natural inclination, - will incline towards Islām.
[07:13] Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى) created mankind with Universal Tools: 1.) Sound Reasoning, 2.) Natural Inclination, 3.) Senses.

[08:00] The five necessities that Islām came to preserve show that the Qur’ān was revealed by Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى).
[08:44] There is a huge war against human nature!
[09:50] Islām warns against blind following,
[10:06] “Say bring your proofs if you are truthful.” [Sūrah Al-Baqarah 2:111]

[10:58] Islām came to free mankind from the slavery of desires and the slavery of the devil. And the slavery of society.
[12:18] What to do if the fiṭrah is corrupted?
[12:40] The Five Necessities That Islām Came To Preserve:
[12:46] 1. Religion.
[13:48] 2. The Intellect - Alcohol is forbidden
[14:06] 3. Wealth. Gambling is forbidden. Interest – Riba is ḥaram.
[14:16] 4. Families, Marriages & Lineages - Fornication and adultery is ḥarām.
[14:33] 5. Life and the Soul - Suicide and killing innocent people is forbidden in Islām.
[15:10] There is a capital punishment for anyone who tries to destroy these 5 necessities.
[17:09] “Whoever turns away from my remembrance will have a miserable life....... [Sūrah Ṭā-ḥā 20:124]
اَلْمُسْلِمُ أَخُو اَلْمُسْلِمِ [23:01 ] “A Muslim is the brother of another Muslim.”
[25:15] Islām came to preserve and protect the five Universal Necessities and to put barriers to anything that opposes these five things….
[25:25] the five things that destroy societies have been glorified and glamorized.
[26:06] A lot of times those who are very hostile to Islām are those who are in power
[26:36] Three Kinds Of People Hate Islām, 1. The Ignorant Person. 2. Those in Power. 3. Those who follow their Evil Desires.
[27:30] Some people care more about the criminals than the victims!
[29:20] The Contradictions In Human Law.
[30:20] When the legislation comes from the Creator, there are no discrepancies and no contradictions.
[31:19] The Islāmic legislation is valid for every place and every time because it is from The Almighty Creator of everything.
[32:04] The fastest growing religion on the face of this earth is Islām.
[34:03] Salvation, safety and protection are only in the Islāmic teachings.
[34:37] Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى) promised He will give victory to those who follow Him!
