Imam Suhaib Webb on Bollywood
"You have to correct this culture. This Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan, Shaytaan..all
this nonsense is destroying the Pakistani and Indian youth...wallahi. My wife is
from Malaysia, I went to Malaysia and now they have Bollywood in Malay. I was riding on a bus in the mountains through Malaysia
and the bus driver is watching a movie and driving a bus at 3 o clock in the
morning. This is crazy, man..is this your illah?? Why don't you stand in the
night and pray or somethin? You have to fight this culture."
"It (romance novels) creates a mentality in you, like Bollywood....I'm like
going to start an anti-Bollywood Jamaat..because I'm telling you, I saw a Bollywood movie on
that bus..because the screen was right there, and my wife was hitting me, "why
are you watchin this?", "screen is right there man ", she can sleep on the bus,
I can't, and I wanted to see it..actually you can't watch it very much..because
they don't have much clothes on..these Hindu chicks. So I watch the movie, and I
watched this movie and honestly, I have become convinced that this is an agent
of Shaytaan. I'm telling you, because it builds this false sense of life in you,
man...life is a love story. Life is ibaadah. Love will be with your family, when
you get married you will find true love with your wife inshallah."
Verily! Hearing, Sight, and the heart, all will be questioned
Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from
looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal
sexual acts). That is purer for them. Verily, Allah is All-Aware of what
they do.
How do we reconcile those verses with the television
that assaults our eyes with Haram almost every second that it is on? How do we reconcile it?
