    18- Allah Asks: Why Do You Insist on Going to the Hell- Why, Sincere Questions, Sincere Answers – Shaykh Hamza Karamali

    Throughout history, God has sent us messengers to warn us that we will be resurrected after death in order to stand before Him to be judged for our actions. The rational response to this warning is to take steps to be successful after the resurrection. But people often turn away from the warning, not because of a rational reason, but out of stubborn folly, and they then clothe their rejection with flawed arguments, even though they know, deep down inside,  that they are making a bad decision.   For more SeekersGuidance podcast shows, visit seekersguidance.org/podcasts.

    17-Allah Asks: Why Don’t You Follow My Messenger? Why, Sincere Questions, Sincere Answers – Shaykh Hamza Karamali

    God sent the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) with signs that enable us to discern that he was not an impostor, but a genuine messenger from God. Shaykh Hamza Karamali walks you through a verse of the Qur’an that shows how the ancient Arabians saw those signs, and how we can see them today. He then explains that the consequence of seeing those signs is genuine acceptance of everything that God tells us through His messenger.

    16 – Allah Asks: Why Do You Worship Other Gods? Why, Sincere Questions, Sincere Answers – Shaykh Hamza Karamali

    This is the most common question that God asks us in the Qur’an. We sometimes think that idol-worship is a primitive practice of the distant past and that now, in the age of science, we know better than to worship idols. Shaykh Hamza Karamali explains that the idolatry of the scientific age is worse and more prevalent than ever before and that verses of the Qur’an that ask us why we worship other gods apply just as much to us today as they did to the polytheists of ancient Arabia.
