Dear Americanfriend,
Let me tell you this: if we just had a few thousands like you in the muslim world and a few thousands more like you in the West, then the World would be a magnificent place.
Peace with you my friend, you give me hope that the World is still a bright place!
DEar Hamza,
Your loving affirmation of my expression came at a time that made my entire night better than it could have been without your posting. you made a difference in my work and inspire me to work harder for peace.

Dear American Friend,
Its a real pleasure to have an eduacted american friend on Ikbes like you,
I have joined this website specially to send you a message, and to add comments on your videos.
I have watched 2 videos till now, and i think that you are brilliant, and i love the way you are talking about Islam and Muslims specially that you are american, and most of americans doesnt know the reality about this subject.
Keep up the good work, and i’m looking forward to see more of your videos.
Ramadan Kareem.

bret
Mashallah, your voice reciting the quran was beutifull, what made it even more beautiful is the fact that arabic isn’t your first language but your still trying to read it (trust me it’s hard). God bless, keep up the good work. :)
bret.. you’re welcome on ikbis. This is a zone for tolerance and mutual respect, irrespective of religion or ethnicity.
God bless u bro and bless ur family
Oh another thing man,
Please post some videos about Egypt if you can … things you like … dislike :)
Bret,
I love your video, i think IKBIS.com is going somewhere :)
Please keep on sharing these GREAT moments man.
Peace,
Amr
p.s. let’s hope this is not about:
Ameri-can-friend or Ameri-can’t-friend :)
After all when it comes to ISLAM … Everyone’s welcomed :)
Bert
I think if you were in my shoes you will hate any thing with the word (American)
Your Management is a disaster in our world and every place they enter become a war zone
I don’t hate Christians or Jews
But I hate as I said America
I travel a lot and I see a lot, no one likes America even the non Muslim.
When I said I’m not good Muslim I know there is some one better than me who go there in Iraq and kill those MF in your US army
I think I’m not the right person to judge you but if you really telling the truth you should say that to your people and be Proud
To be Muslim
For example: show it to the world in (youtube) and I will be the first one to
congratulate you
no problem, probably i was not clear :)
Oh, sorry.
faten i meant the previous comment that was deleted. and i’m not implying that what aboud said is acceptable.
“your not Muslim and you never will be” is not an opinion. It is just rude.
And who cursed?
every person has the right to give his opinion but not attack or judge any other person or even curse! learn from Bret guys!
Most welcome Bret here in ikbis . May ALLAH enhance your Islam more and more , and don’t blame Aboud bcoz he is jealous about what American Goverment is doing to us all over the world , we have strong belief that the local American people are different from their goverment and they can understand our issues in a better way but they are totally misguided by the media ,
I hope to see people entering Islam with full satisfaction and we are ready to help them always bcoz it is our duty .
HOLD ON!!!
ABoud….I am American. And I am Muslim. Yes I have a Palestine in my blood but it still does not change the fact that I’m American. I was born here and still am here. I practice Islam as do my children. And I see Islam More stronger here in the US then I do in Jordan or any other country in the Middle East. I was in Jordan a few years ago and The reason why I say that Islam is so strong here is because when you are in a country that has Islam as a terrorist Group rather then a religion of peace it makes us Muslims in this Nation want to educate non- Muslims of what Islam is. Which means I as a Muslim will educate myself with the outline of Islam, History, Quran, Meaning and how to answer stupid remarks form non- Muislims with dignity and respect. In almost every mosque here you will find classes for the women, children, And men to learn how to read the Quran or lessons form the meaning of the Quran. I am so afraid that when I go to live in Jordan I will not be able to have that. I am sure there is something there but for a non-fluent Arabic speaker like me.
But anyways Aboud SHAME ON YOU. SHAME on the picture you shared. And SHAME on the comment you left. As a Muslim you should go educate yourself on Islam seeing how you said your not a good Muslim.
If you knew that Allah Created all Mankind Muslim in the womb and that whenever someone like Bret practices Islam, he did not convert to Islam but Instead he Reconverted you would think twice before typing.
Don’t you think that there is a reason why Allah has some Muslims in all parts of the world so that we can spread peace?
I have never seen anything like this form a Muslim.
Allah ehdek Aboud. And embrace Islam with your Heart bret. Alhamdualla, you have patience and speak wisely. Your Dwah in America inshalla will be so powerfull and meaningful to Allah.
Allah Makakom,
aboud please take it easy!!!
I am the one who deleted the comment cause it was too rude for me to say!
First of all if u r not a good muslim then u have to be proud that other ppl from different countries and different religions are studying Islam and planning to be real muslims!
u cant imagine how hard for these ppl to be muslims, u r lucky cause u were born muslim!
in islam we dont fight other ppl like Bret who is tryin to make peace with us!
instead we should hold our hands and try to find a solution and to make peace, American ppl should know that we r not the enemy!!!
Bret brother keep on it u r on the right track!
ur brother Alaa.
Bret, you are a wise man,
I’m proud of you being a member in our online community.
Aboud,
I didnt delete your message. i think the Ikbis management deleted it because of its nature. I responded to it anyway. I will not judge you ever as judgment is only for God to make.
Aboud,
I dont sleep like a baby at night because people are dying and being fed hatred by media to make us refuse to consider that we are brothers.
I am in america with food and comfort and financial wealth and i feel empty for the children of war and poverty. I believe you feel this way too.
Please just consider that I could be your friend if we were born in the same neighborhood.
Bret
Will American Soldier
I’m the one who responds to your video and you delete it with out replying and this is what I call lack of courage
I’m not a good Muslim and I know others aren’t also but I have the courage to say it in your face
You are not a Muslim and you will never be and this is gift for you so you can sleep tonight like a baby

Bret, may I recommend you to watch a clip that I really liked?
The Clip is quite long, about 50 minutes I believe,but it is really worth the time, you can watch it on the weekend when you have some free time.
Here is the clip:

I hope you like it :D
I awoke this morning to a response from an ikbis `member that was violent and unfriendly about me being an american and islam not needing me among other things. The management of Ikbis,I assume removed it because of its`nature. i would liketo address this comment.
Please do not hate me simply because of where i was `born. I am not proud of everything my country does. this is why I am making these postings to let you know that there are many of us here in American who love you and are sickened by your pain and suffering and the oppression.
I love your passion in hating me because with passion together we can make change. will you consider that we could be brothers seperated only by land and sea ?
God willing we will be friends some day, if not here, then in heaven where you will see me as brother with no doubt. en sha allah
bret
Masallah, your arabic is so good. For you who has no prior Arabic backround and for you to read the Quran with every intent to learn and understand what you are reading…inshallah Allah will make the reward so much more greater.
And that little digtal PenMan Quran is so cool. My son has one and uses it to memorize what ever surah he is on.
a salam alaykom akhee …a want to thnk you for your good choice إن شاء الله يكون معاك الله و يكافئك بالجنة
Wa alaykom el salama akhee :D
You sounded a lot like my father, He is a Swed who converted to islam,
he still has a little bit of the rough accent that you have when you speak arabic :P
George,Thanks for the good word, and Solid snake, Well, I nearly died of colon cancer here in America and Have four children and I woke up one morning in pain for the suffering of the Muslim people among others in the world. Something is making me write peace songs and learn Arabic and I have promised my new muslim friends that i will notify them if i arrive at the point where I make a choice(ie shahada) but right now I study Arabic two hours everyday and we are preparing to adopt a fifth child from ethiopia. My short answer is that i am a muslim as The sun and the moon are muslims and that my religion is a world at peace.
Sincerely
Bret
r u muslim man?
not bad for one year!
