Description
This documentary is for anyone interested in the true teachings of Islam. An intelligent and sensitive portrayal of Islamic beliefs and practices, Islam: A Closer Look, clearly and concisely explains a wide range of important concepts, such as the unity of God, the Quran, prayer, fasting, zakat, the pilgrimage, Islamic sciences, the role of the masjid, Islamic family values, and the importance of acquiring knowledge. Most non-Muslims think that all Muslims are Arabs, but Shaikh Abdullah Hakim surprises the viewers in this documentary by telling them that only 15% Muslims are Arabs and the remaining 85% are non-Arab. Sr. Besa Karsingi challenges non-Muslim ladies to wear hijab as an experiment, and then they would not want to take it off.
A series of well-known guests share their insights and experiences on this program:
  • Imam Hamza Yusuf talks about family. He says that family is the root of human society, and that mercy is the important element for running a successful family.
  • Dr. Abdullah Hakim brings an important point in the equality of sexes because Islamically male and female children are equal. Adam and Eve both committed sin and then were both forgiven by Almighty.
  • Sister Nancy Ali, a former Roman Catholic nun, says, “When I go out in my hijab, people stare at me, but hijab is my armor.” She is actively involved in dawah and goes to different schools and churches for that purpose. She also mentioned that for a good family, piety should be the focus.
  • Sr. Audrey Shabbaz is the Director of Arab World and Islamic Resources (AWIR).Her organization works with teachers in California arranging workshops and seminars on Islamic issues.
  • Professor John Esposito teaches religion and Islamic Studies at Georgetown University. He has written several books on Islam and the Islamic world. In this video, professor Esposito points out that zakat and Ramadan both enforce a strong sense of community.
  • Hakeem Olajuwon, the famous basketball player of the Houston Rockets, won two championships and the title of Most Valuable Player in1994. Hakeem, originally from Nigeria, was in school when he was recruited by the University of Houston. He is loved and respected by his team, the NBA, and his fans.
  • And more.
