Is Dr.Zakir Naik's way of propagating Islam effective in India?

he is only man who can the truth of every verser of quran in correct way iin translated in many language and wee can get alot of benefit throught it and we will also know the importance of islam iman quran in our life and tobe a great muslim

as salam walay kum dr zakir naik . i am great fan of yours . thanx for every thing that you have told us about islam. we need more people like you sir.

Mr Zakir Naik has been using his powerful memory to promote a brand of Islam that is both untrue, unjustifiable and unacceptable in a pluralistic society. Instead of propagating Islam as the religion of peace and goodwill among men, he promotes an Islam that is intolerant and belligerent. His numerous quotations from the Quran and Hadis are always out of context and deliberately given a communal twist. His agenda is to divide rather than unite the various strings of humanity. With friends of Islam, such as he is, we do not need the BJP and the RSS.

i believe no one in this world is contemporary to him. he is the only man whom the god has given the ability to remember the verse of most of the holy books. the zealous people always make nonsense comment against naik without facing him. the great spiritual leader on Hinduism s.s. Ravi sankar even can't mention the verse and chapter of his own religious book but naik can. the debate with Dr. Campbell etc are worth mentioning. may the god give knowledge to all the unbelievers and show the right path. religion is not a thing that is to be followed blindly.

I dont think So. Dr Zakir Naik has removed the confusion from peoples' mind whether they belong to Muslim, Hindu or chritian. He is a student of comparative religion & the fundamentalist Muslim. He only talks about the similarities between the religion further more he proves it by the quotations from Holly Quran, Bible or any other scripture. People can refer those books if it is true then people will definately believe on those quotation. Dr Zakir Naik never said that any scripture or any religion is bad he alway called people to come to common term so we all can be successful in this world & Akhirat. Anyone who is normal & listen to him with open mind & heart they realise that he is right & that is the reason why they listen to him. I believe when people dont get answers to their questions from their holly books & if Dr Zakir Naik provides answers with the help of Holly Quran & Hadeed. I think those answers provided convince these people to accept ISLAM Because the Glorious Quran has Solution for all the Human Kind & Islam gives PEACE and if we see around there are so much of HATRED around the world Every body is so frustrated in their life. Our Glorious Quran gives the equal rights for men & women etc that is the reason why ISLAM is the fastest growing religion in the World.

DawatoJihad is a compulsory act for all muslims.Why we are putting all the
burden on Zakir bhai?

Dr. zakir is the only scholar i want to listen to. I love him and the enemies of Islam are trying to harm his status. every other so called scholars are jealous from him. I respect him alot and I am against everyone who is against Dr. Zakir. he speaks logically with proves. I love u Dr. zakir naik.... may Allah always bless u....

Few months back there had been a lot of controversy surrounding Dr. Zakir Naik. I don't understand why people are framing such a person who always have spoken about Islam in righteous manner based on Quran quotes . I have learnt a lot from his seminars. He respects other religious faith and makes us understand Islam in a right perspective. All wrong things have been propagated against Islam by media and other religious fanatics, with regard to Muslims being intolerant and terrorist . But as Dr. Zakir Naik rightly says one should follow the script and not take a Muslim as an example to know real Islam. My request to all fellow brothers and sisters, follow our script and respect others even if they don't follow Islam, as you are not respecting their faith but the person up front. I must strive to reform myself and people of the entire world this is what jihad is for me.

zakir is one of the best in the world.

Dr. Zakir Naik is a learned scholar and has command on his subject. He talk of other religions with respect and gets respect and honour by like minded visioneries all over the world. What worries and sadfull is site / cable / dish programe is only shown in selected places and totally ignored by cable-wallas and Dish operators with lame excuses. When a person is good for society, then why descripency, partiality and hate. Let love, truth and understanding prevail.

There is not a single video of zakir naik in which he did not speak at least one lie where he spoke about Hinduism. Examples include his deliberate misinterpretation of the sholka on the Varna System equating it to birth based casteism, the Hindu greetings of Namaste, and innumerable others. Let a nationalist govt come at center, and zakir will be behind bars!

Dr. Zakir Naik always says that he is a student on comparitive religion. He is called by others as scholar on religions. I donot agree all that he says and he never asks anyone to agree all of what he says for that matter. Muslims who call themselves "Moderate"(though there is no such thing) and those who are "Extreme"(there is no such thing) both has always something to critisize on the subjects he tlaks about.

As human beings with commonsense, we should do some research oursleves before we judge an individual. I think differing or having different opinions on subjects are healthy as long as it doesn't violate the fundamentals.

A man with a less knowledge, I support Dr.Zakir's propogation but at the same time, I donot agree with all of his interpretation of Quran and Hadiths and I think it is alright for him to continue if he is sincere in his propogation and expects only in the hereafter. Afterall he still calls himself only a student and not a scholar.

I being a non-Muslim I love Dr.Zakir naik he is really preaching a truth faith
and I seen his video "Is the Qur'an God's word?" on you tube
he has proved there that the Qur'an is the word of God
so,I want to embrace Islam

Riyas V M @ 8 July 2010 - 3:38pm. or WHOEVER you maybe COMMENTING under an apparently Muslim Name.

Don't try to comment without OR with HALF-knowledge. I try to write a saying, and I'm sure you know: HALF-KNOWLEDGE is DANGEROUS.

To-date (and I repeat TO-DATE), there is a surviving RELIGION in Saudi Arabia, completely intact with their CLAN. It is CALLED the JEWISH QUARTER, which is located south of Riyadh, and north of Al-Lidam. When I visited in those days, GPS gadget was not introduced - otherwise, I would have given you the geographical co-ordinates, exactly pinpointing the area. Anyhow, this is a FACT.

Remember, JEWS were there in Saudi Arabia before Muslims. Unfortunately, wherever they lived, they TRIED to puncture a hole, in the very-plates they eat. Jews always FOUGHT against Muslims, and after death of Prophet Mohammad - they tried to DIG a TUNNEL in an EFFORT to TAKE-OUT the DEAD-BODY of Prophet Mohammad. These TUNNEL DIGGERS were apprehended, punished, and their effort foiled. From that time, not only JEWS, but other RELIGION followers are NOT-ALLOWED to enter a boundary set around Madinah and Makkah. That's one of the reason for PROHIBITION of ENTRY to NON-MUSLIMS.

Try to verify these facts - as it MAYBE difficult to find in a reference book. However, this FACT is WELL-DOCUMENTED in ancient ARABIC and PERSIAN-language History Books.

An Indian

P.S.:
------
Saudi Arabia has more NATURAL WONDERS. Apart from BLACK-GOLD or OIL, they have GOLD-MINES east of Madinah, and many RICH MINERALS elsewhere in the Kingdom.

Additionally there are many STEAM or HOT-WATER-WELLS, where people take bath to cure from skin-diseases. There is a "TARA-BOWLI" (or asteroid well) in Al-Kharj, east of Riyadh. It is the size of a FOOT-BALL STADIUM / FIELD. It is said that an ASTEROID fell from outer-SPACE (date unknown), and it was the size of a FOOT-BALL STADIUM / FIELD. Water level (water surface) starts at more than 2,000 feet from ground level. Water-supply from this well is sufficient for needs of Al-Kharj city, both for agricultural and domestic purposes.

In-fact there are many ASTEROID WELLS in the area, but the one I MENTIONED is the biggest. Try to verify this FACT also, or you may find it in one of the National Geographic Magazine publication.

If what Dr. Zakir Naik is propogating is true Islam, I don't mind to say I just hate Islam. Especially his answers on 'why there is no other religion in Saudi' and all.

i would like to tell all those who talk freely here against Dr Zakir that any type of question u have r doubt about Islam r Dr Zakir , first go and discuss it with the experts ,and try to encourage them to stand in front of Zakir naik.everything can be cleared there.send ur scholar and watch TV u ll know soon what happens.truth all the time wins.

He is not propagating Islam in India only, i think he propagates Islam in the world, because i heard from many people Muslims and Non Muslims that they are effected by Zakir. I kindly request him to once to Afghanistan.

Thanks,

Mohib from Jalalabad Afghanistan.

Dr. Zakir invite each and every human being to listen his speeches (ie. Muslim , Hindu, Christian etc) Hetry to convince every person with proof from Al Quran & Sahi Hadiths, & with Logics, whcih most of the people are unable to do so, Whenever their is allegation againt Quran & Hadiths, he stands againt those people Nd chllenge them for debate with humble request.
and he proves those people wrong, like, Dr. William cambell written book againt Qyran, no one could take proper actions againt him, but the challenge was accepted by Dr. Zakir Naik and He proved what William Cambell has written is wrong tahe debate between bothe doctors, was held in USA, the name of the debate was, "The Quran and the Bible in the light of science"
and he own the debate by Allah's help, same time Sri Sri Ravishankar has written book againt Quran, and the challenge was accepted by Dr. Zakir Naik, so we should not demoralise each other but appriciated, He is doing noble task which very rare people have guts to do, May Allah have mercy on all of us and show us the straight path AMEEN.

I wish to request Dr.Zakir first teach our Muslim brothers and sisters to be real Muslims.
If muslims of India practice Islam properly, we don't need any propagators to spread Islam, it will spread like fire.

If Dr. Zakir Naik's way of propagating Islam was ineffective, thousands and thousands would not have embraced Islam!!!

What our learned Mutawas / Maulanas / Maulvis COULD NOT achieve in hundreds of years, Dr. Zakir Naik has achieved that, in a relatively short time-span.

You see - whenever there is FIRE, there is bound to be SMOKE. Without FIRE there is no SMOKE. Is smoke STRONGER then FIRE - that needs to be considered. I hope readers on this platform are wise, and got the message. Thank you.

YES DR. NAIK,S WAY OF PROPAGATING ISLAM IS CORRECT

Dear brother,

The ulemas struggle hard to understand the whole of Quran and Hadeeth in thier entire study period spanning over 10-15 years. Dr. Zakir naik is a doctor but he started a journey of research in Islam with Science, physics, chemistry, philosophy etc. to understand the Islam, the Quran and Hadeeth. i feel without knowing all this related topics , we can understand the actual message of Hazrat Mohamman Sallallahualaihiwasallam (peace be upon him) and the Holy Quran. Because everything is actually invent from Quran and Hadeeth. As you all know Hazrat Mohamman Sallallahualaihiwasallam (peace be upon him) is the best Scientist , best philosopher and best of all. I wish long life of Dr. Zakir Naik and IRF.

Zakir naik is propagating Islam. Fine! But he does not hold ulemas of Deoband for in that case maulanas etc. in good esteem ( And Allah knows best). He is not an alim from any madrassa. We cannot compare the likes of the Ulemas passing out from madrassas to Dr. Naik. The ulemas struggle hard to understand the whole of Quran and Hadeeth in thier entire study period spanning over 10-15 years. We, being, commoners, do not dare to dvelve into the studies of Islam and so turn to the Ulemas. But Dr. Naik seems to have ..well...!!! A self made ulema. ?? Does not think Tasawuf to be part of islam? Outrightly says" Its Bidah"! Wonder in what pedestal he would put the great stalwarts like Maulana Hussain Ahmad madai (RAH), Qasim nanotavi(RAH), Khwaza Moinuddin Chisti (RAH) etc.
