Answer 2

I actually have watched a lot of his lectures. All contain no longer some thing yet hate speech. Even sturdy tolerant Muslims start up this imagine in a fundamentalist way at the same time as they hearken to his lectures. yet another actuality is that he not in any respect solutions any question from the target market. His solutions are precisely like that of a political candidate.

Answer 3

Dr. Zakir Naik is my most favorite Muslim scholar currently. He is an Indian doctor, extremeley intelligent, and a perfect guide for today's Muslims -- young and old. He not only knows a whole lot about Islam, but he also knows practically everything about other religions (Hinduism, Budhism, Christianity, Judaism, ....). He has hundreds of debates with non-Muslim scholars concerning religion, and he's won every one of them, it seems. With his interesting debates, interesting and eye-opening lectures, this doctor and scholar has changed many Muslims' and non-Muslims' lives with his wonder knowledge. You know what's sooo awesome about him? The guy seems to have memorized each verse of the Quran... I mean, when he's talking about women in Islam, for instance, he says, "In chapter verse , God says...." He knows the chapter/verse numbers at the top of his head! MashaAllah!
I respect him highly and would be honored if I ever get the oppurtunity to meet with him face to face :D!
"Peace TV" is his channel entirely, yes, and he also often comes on QTV (another Islamic channel).
He has many, many websites; if you just type in his name in any search engine, you'll find hundreds of websites of his. My most favorite one, though, is irf.net. Soo good, soo interesting, soo informative! Not just about Islam but about other religions as well. You can see his debates, many of them, on youtube as well (youtube.com, and type in Zakir Naik).
Peace and blessings of God be upon you and the entire world!

Answer 4

He is very nice man as well, other than a knowledgeable Islamic scholar, I met him personally in Riyadh, KSA, shacked hand with him and got privilege to ask a question to him as well.
In that public gathering one man was converted to Islam from Hinduism, under Dr. sahib's kind guidance. All of us were very happy and loudly said Allahu Akbar slogans. This was my first time in my life, looking such a pleasant event of someones converting to Islam in front of me.
I cannot forget that event whole of my life. Than I met that guy and congratulated him on his enlightenment of entering in Islam.
This is all due to the grace of almighty Allah, that we have wonder full personality among us, Dr. Zakir Abdul Karim Naik.
May Allah's Mercy and blessings be along with him and along all his co-workers contributing their valuable role in preaching of Islam.
Any info required about Him I know certain nos. of people concerned with him, present in KSA may help you.

Answer 6

I watched the video on youtube provided by one of the answerer here, I find he is very knowledgeable and he is indeed one great man. He earned my respect.

Answer 7

He is another fanatic publicizing the religion he follows. Although he know a good deal about Islam, but he has no idea about other religious practices and beliefs and gives examples of s**t about those other religions. I don't understand why people follow such fanatics (be it Christians, Hindus, or Muslims). They are the ones who are changing out identities from human beings to mere religious beings.

He studied negatives of all religious practices and researched over unethical practices of Islam and started giving lame reasons for those practices.

And to the people who states verses and chants from so called religious books - you guys are not reading the original scripts, you are reading revised and re-revised versions. Give me a break. Even if there were different Gods, do you think they would be stupid enough to fight among themselves for supremacy.

All of these forms of the Almighty wanted us to live a perfect humanitarian life. They wanted us to identify ourselves as 'human beings' - the most important and integral portion of his creations. But instead we wanna identify ourselves as Christians, Hindus, Muslims, etc.

People who try to prove their religious supremacy are basically few narrow minded people who do not have any respect for the mankind, nor do they value themselves as human beings. He is one of those narrow minded guys.

And I bet I'm gonna get a lot of thumbs downs for this answer of mine. Truth is bitter...
