In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that working in a bank is not allowed because banks are based on interest, which is haram. He says that living in a society full of interest makes everything connected to it haram, but if someone is trying to change the system for Allah’s Deen, their efforts can help balance the harm of living in such an environment.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed is explaining when to take action for establishing Islamic dominance. He says in Pakistan, about 100,000 to 200,000 dedicated people should be ready for this. Once they are organized, they can openly challenge others. He compares this to the well-organized RSS in India, stressing that being prepared is key for taking any big step.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed discusses how an Islamic government should make laws through parliament, based on Islamic principles (ijtihad). He says running for parliament is permissible, but it is important to have experts ensure that the laws follow Shariah. A system should be in place to check the qualifications and honesty of those entering parliament. This way, laws will align with Islamic guidelines and prevent issues later.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that the system set by Prophet Muhammad (SAW) slowly weakened over time, lasting 30 years before collapsing fully after 1,000 years. Sectarianism has divided Muslims, but he believes it can end through unity, as it did during Pakistan's movement.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that in matters where Islamic scholars (Imams) differ, only knowledgeable individuals with a deep understanding of the Qur'an, Sunnah, and Shariah should decide. The opinion closest to the Qur'an and the Prophet's teachings is preferred. However, an easier option may be accepted if it stays within Shariah guidelines.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that while humans want to see results from their efforts, we should work for Allah's pleasure. He highlights that people have a spiritual side that seeks higher values and a physical side that wants rewards. True faith means continuing to work even when we don’t see immediate results, as focusing only on outcomes can lead to losing motivation.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains whether making pictures is haram in Islam. Drawing pictures by hand of living beings is clearly forbidden in Islamic teachings. With the invention of cameras, scholars debated if photography falls under the same rule. Some say it’s allowed for things like education, passports, or criminal identification. While some scholars accept it for necessary purposes, most discourage it, especially for general use.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Allah has made the Quran easy to understand, but it might not always seem so. The Quran has two aspects: one is simple to read, while the other requires deeper understanding, similar to learning the alphabet. Knowing Arabic helps grasp the true meanings directly, but translations can sometimes be confusing. Although the Quran is easy to read, its deeper meanings are vast and complex, like the depths of the ocean.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that baait (pledge of allegiance) in Islam can be for spiritual guidance or for jihad. It doesn’t have to be given to a specific person; anyone with sincere intentions for Allah can offer baait. He shares an example of scholars like Maulana Ata Ullah Bukhari who took baait to fight against the Qadiani movement. Baait involves a commitment to follow Allah’s path, avoid what displeases Him, and be ready to sacrifice for His cause.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that some hadiths are called weak because expert scholars carefully checked the narrators’ honesty. These scholars spent their lives gathering and verifying hadiths to keep only the reliable ones. He highlights that, like the Quran, the Prophet’s teachings (Sunnah) have been preserved as a miracle, giving Muslims a lasting model and uniting them in core practices like prayer.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that the concept of eternal life in heaven (Jannah) and hell (Jahannum) is hard for humans to fully understand due to our limited minds. He mentions two scholars, Ibn Arabi and Ibn Taymiyyah, who both agree that heaven is eternal, but hell may not be. This debate comes from different interpretations of religious texts.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed says that when Hazrat Isa (AS) returns, he will join Muslims in prayer, showing respect for the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) followers. His main purpose will be to defeat those who opposed him, especially those with powerful weapons. Allah will give him special abilities so that his presence alone will weaken and defeat his enemies, helping to end falsehood and oppression.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed discusses Hazrat Umar's refusal to let the Prophet ﷺ write a will, an incident often criticized by some Shia groups. He highlights the importance of verifying such narrations. The refusal can be understood given the Prophet's weak condition at the time. Dr. Israr Ahmed concludes that Hazrat Umar's decision was wise and accepted by others.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains whether installment-based transactions, like leasing, are permissible in Islam. In Hanafi Fiqh, selling an item at a higher price for deferred payment is allowed, but he criticizes this practice, arguing it resembles interest and lacks clear evidence from the Quran or Hadith. While some scholars permit it based on common practice, Dr. Israr questions the justification and views it as problematic.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Islam allows Muslim men to marry women from Ahl-e-Kitab (Jews and Christians), as stated in the Quran. He argues this permission remains valid even today, despite changes in their beliefs, as similar issues existed during the Quran's revelation. However, it is ideal if the woman converts to Islam before marriage.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed questions whether banks should be closed due to their involvement in interest (sood). He suggests replacing them with investment corporations that share profits and losses, making the system halal. He believes this change is achievable through a revolution that builds awareness and leadership. This would create a fairer financial system without interest.

In the clip Dr Israr Ahmed discusses the decline of movements after their founder's death, citing historical examples like Jamaat-e-Islami post-Maududi. However, he stresses this pattern shouldn't discourage efforts. He highlights that strong foundations can help movements endure. Even non-Islamic examples, like the Qadiani Jamaat, show continuity is possible. Islamic movements, therefore, can also sustain and thrive with proper planning and vision.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that a husband can give divorce in Islam, but it should be done responsibly and as a last resort. Divorce is allowed but disliked by Allah. Efforts should be made to reconcile before deciding. After three divorces, the wife can only remarry her husband if she marries and separates from another man. Fewer than three divorces allow remarriage through a new Nikah.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains why a grandchild (pota) does not inherit from a deceased grandparent if their own parent (the son or daughter of the deceased) is still alive. If the son is alive, the grandchild does not receive inheritance. However, if the son is deceased, the grandchild can inherit, as the inheritance would pass to the next line. He also explains that while the grandchild may not inherit, they can receive a gift or will from the grandparent during their lifetime, within legal limits.
