Donations Needed – Daʿwah Equipment

As-Salāmu ʿAlaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh,

Last year we raised funds towards our goal of facilitating daʿwah during World Cup 2026. Cities throughout North America are going to have daʿwah teams trained personally by me (Ust. Ijaz) and a team of qualified & experienced duʿāt and students of knowledge. We recently launched our website for registering as duʿāt, please sign up today so you don’t miss out: https://i3outreach.org/worldcup

During 2025 we had two campaigns for daʿwah-related equipment, with less than 90 days to the World Cup it’s high time for being prepared. We need your help to fundraise for equipment that will be used for storing, transporting, and recording our daʿwah efforts. Liaising with city officials, our daʿwah booths will be located near stadiums and fan zones, for example in Toronto our planned location will put us in contact with roughly 65,000 attendees in just one day. Imagine the reward for facilitating the daʿwah with numbers as high as that!

Fundraising for Ust. Ijaz.

As-Salāmu ʿAlaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh brothers & sisters,

Ustādh Ijaz has worked in the daʿwah field for 20 years. Starting in his home country of Trinidad, he excelled in the daʿwah field by training teams of daʿwah carriers in Hong Kong, Durban, London, & Toronto. His main focus became researching and studying textual criticism of the Qurʾān and the Bible. 

Despite excelling in the daʿwah field, Ustādh became quite ill and was eventually diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder that causes severe and permanent pain. This pain syndrome is intense and renders him unable to function on a normal basis, he is in terrible pain at all times.

GoFundMe for Ust. Ijaz

As-salāmu ʿalaykum wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuhu brothers & sisters,

Please take a moment to read this very important message.

As most of you will know, my health has been on a steady decline over the last 12 years. Due to rising costs and consultation between my medical team, my colleagues in the daʿwah, and my family, we’ve made the decision to open a GoFundMe to cover my medical, medical-related, and subsistence costs.

In these sacred and closing nights of Ramaḍān, we are hoping to raise the amount needed.

DEBATE: The Qurʾān or the Bible, Which is the Word of God? Dr. Michael Brown & Ust. Ijaz Ahmad

Bismillāh, Alḥamdulillāh, As-Ṣalātu was-Salāmu ʿAla Rasulullāh.

In April of 2021 I had the pleasure of debating Dr. Michael Brown (Line of Fire) on a new short form debate series for AWKING TV, a Christian streaming channel. The series, That’s Debatable was meant to cater for hot topics in short form debates with a focus on robust rapid fire segments. In total, my episode was the last to debut at #8 and generally holding to the same 25-30 minute format of the show. Br. Zakir Hussain (Muslim Debate Initiative) referred me to the show and after a quick round of emails everything was set up, including a contract which allowed me to distribute a recording of the episode after a sunset period. That clause kicked in to effect last month and it is with that in mind that I’ve released the debate video.

Notably, this is the only episode that was not advertised publicly. Neither Dr. Michael Brown, nor his team promoted this episode. Reviews and reactions have piled in swiftly since the video’s debut a number of days ago and the consensus (both in the comments and otherwise) seems to indicate that the Muslim side presented itself quite brilliantly. It should go without saying that everyone believes they perform better at their own debates, after all, why do this if one weren’t confident in their own ability for the sake of God? Farid Responds has done a fantastic reaction and review of the debate. Personally, I enjoyed the fiery style of this debate and while short, I did not find time to be an issue. I tried my best to respond with references and data which evidenced my claims and with the assistance of EFDawah and Br. Erfan al Farisi, we managed to have the subtitles fully transcribed and burnt-in to the video.

One of the more astounding claims to come out of this debate by Dr. Brown was that Christians possessed 5000 manuscripts of the New Testament within Christianity’s first centuries, to date, that remains to be an unqualified claim. Of peculiar interest are claims from some Christian audience members that the debate must be a deep fake video, Dr. Brown could not have possibly said the things he did, and yet he did. Other Christian audience members have asked if the video was perhaps cut in some way to make Dr. Brown claim awkward things, and yet it was not. The video is available via the streaming service here. As for why some Christian audience members have such disbelief about Dr. Brown’s claims in the debate, I leave that for you, the audience to decide. It should be noted that the video was available to watch freely, behind no paywall as of July 2022, that a paywall has gone up by the Christian streaming service at the same time I’ve freely released the debate is peculiar, but I lay no claim here, it may just be coincidental.

Overall, audiences have reacted very well to the debate, feedback has been heartwarming and all in all, I think it is fair to say that Christian academics are struggling to defend the New Testament’s reliability both textually and historically, as seen in this very debate.

Yours in Islām,
Ust. Ijaz Ahmad.

Course: History of the Injīl and the New Testament

You must have been exposed to debates between Muslims and Christians on the Bible. You turn to YouTube, seeking to understand the relationship between the Bible and the Qur’ān. The results bombard you with so many different videos of different lengths, and you have no idea where to start with.

This is exactly why i3 presents a series of advanced workshops by specialized speakers to give you a head start!

Introducing the first specialty workshop:
History of Injeel and the New Testament with IjazTheTrini

The History of the Injeel as revealed by Allāh ﷻ and the history of the New Testament are two hotly debated topics between Muslims and Christians. This bootcamp seeks to establish a basis for understanding what both are within an Islāmic and historical paradigm.

Happening this weekend on December 4-5th, from 12-3PM each day.
