An interesting episode in English in which Sh. Bilal Philips shows the meaning of Allah’s name "Al-Quddoos" (the Holy) which means the one who is perfectly free from deficiency and holy in all aspects.

Also, we reject the claims of those who say that Allah’s law is backward and unsuitable for our times. Afterwards Sh. Bilal shows that Allah did not create us aimlessly but He is the All-Wise.
