Despite the nobility and strength of the message it claims to carry, the Muslim community as a whole is suffering from many of the same social and spiritual ills that are plaguing the non-Muslim community. Why is this the case and how does Islam provide hope when it's so easy to have such a bleak outlook? Through his typically concise and scholarly approach, Jamal Badawi presents the answers to these important questions by analyzing the respective strengths and weaknesses of the Muslim ummah as well as relating a fascinating hadith of the Prophet (P) that foretells the stages of success and failure for the ummah until the end of time. He also looks at three major diseases that are at the heart of the matter: loyalty to other than Allah, lack of knowledge and understanding, and disunity. Other topics discussed: fear and hope, the lure of Shaitan, khalifah, and the necessary correlation between belief and action. (Duration: 56 min)
