Khalid Yasin Exposed: The Video
I found the video of the Australian expose which revealed the fraud of con man “da’ee” Khalid Yasin. Watching it is entirely different from reading the transcript. If you don’t catch anything else, check out the last five minutes where they bust him lying about his academic credentials. Notice how ghetto and slick he gets. Keep in mind this documentary was produced four years ago, and the Muslim TV station Khalid “raised funds” for still doesn’t exist (for those who keep screaming about the “benefit of the doubt”). In fact, just watch the whole thing and see a real con man in action.
The footage of him working out is hilarious.

That workout footage is hilarious. This guy is such a clown. I wish they’d do videos like this on all the scholars for dollars.
So what?? Why not to work out, a guy cannot be religious and sportive …
Everyone could try and fail, no wrong in that, …
If had a big house the report would have shown it… but they did not.. I’m not blindly defending the guy ,… I just dont buy this cheap report
Khalid Yasin begun his ministry as the “Amir” or leader of Jammat Ita’hadul Iqwa on Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn N.Y. (often referred to as the McDonalds Mosque, due to its proximity to a McDonalds). Upon his return from Hajj, he was given money (alongside several prominent Muslim clerics, such as Siraj Wahhaj) by the Saudi Arabian government, through its religious ministries Darul Ifta and Rabitat. This money was for the establishment of a proper Masjid (instead of the store front) and for Dawah. Khalid returned to Jammat Iqwa, overthrew the leadership of the Masjid, assumed control, and used the funds to purchase a home for himself in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn. Known for his outbursts and violent mood swings, he often found himself at trouble with other imams. He was witnessed getting into a verbal confrontation, yelling wildly and verbally berating the Imam of Yasin Masjid (a Darul Islam mosque) on 52 Herkemer St. He also physically assaulted a well renowned brother, Sheikh Adl, at Jammat Iqwa by his beard and slammed him into the wall. Later on he would make public threats against the Ansar Muslims located in Bushwick, Brooklyn. In 1988, as a result of his long time battle with drug addiction, he served time for “Possession With The Intent To Distribute Controlled Substances” in a New York Prison. His son was also incarcerated for the same. Upon his release, he relocated to parts unknown, eventually landing in England and attempting to start a ministry there.
What have you done for the Ummah? Australia is running rampant with Lebanese gangs.
These youth who were born into Muslim families have no direction and have lost their deen. This man has reinstilled Islam and self respect in them. I have not seen one of his videos that I disagree with. If it hurts peoples feelings, so be it. Of course, Australia is going to demonize him because they don’t want any Muslims period. Also, How is a Kuffar going to set up accreditation for an Imam? You’re ok if you teach the way we want you to teach? I don’t think so.
He makes a statement in one of his videos that there are 1.5 billion Muslims and these Muslims are equivalent to 1.5 billion wet matches. He is definitely right. They are so afraid of offending the Kuffar that they will sell out there own brothers to gain some status.
Keep going brother, Khalid Yasin.
@ Adilah
First of all, we have known Khalid Yasin and his criminal activity for YEARS before he ever came to Australia. This man has not changed at all and only gotten worse as the years have passed
Keep going Khalid? Yes Khalid, (according to you) continue to let him rob and steal from the Muslims! Let him buy personal houses and land with money that is supposed to go to projects all because a FEW Lebanese youth in Australia like to listen to his tapes???
So according to you, we are supposed to allow him to just continue his criminal activity and NEVER warn anyone EVER? So this is all a big con game to you all? Criminal activity does not matter at all to you? This is a sickening way of thinking
Since i dont worship people, i dont have an emotional connection to Yasin. I am however, black and i do have a problem with the idea that arab muslims are the yardstick of Islam. Where is the outcry when it comes to the arab kings and princes who inspite of thier dress, in every other way live like the kuffar?
Where is the “criminal activity”? He made some failed business dealings. This happens all the time in our communities. Is he still producing his videos and tapes? That takes money and is also considered “media broadcasting”. They showed a building in the video that is also an Islamic center. So what if he lives there also. Is he not doing Dawah?
Is he not teaching? Aren’t they broadcasting a radio show?
What are you doing?
@ adilah: *applause*
BismiLlahi arRahmani arRahim
AsSalaamu ‘alaykum wa rahmatuLlahi wa barakatuhu
MashaLlah sister Adilah, may Allah subhanahu wa ta ‘ala bless you for your true words.
I don’t know if all this is true and it is not my business, nor YOURS.
All that I see is a lot of arguments for kuffar to stop the dawah, and subhanaLlah, there are even muslims who help that??
My Lord is Allah subhanahu wa ta ‘ala and my Master is Muhammad sallaLlahu ‘alayihi wa sallam, then I strive to follow this hadith * :
Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu ‘anhu, reported that the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, said:
“Do not be envious of one another; do not artificially inflate prices against one another; do not hate one another; do not shun one another; and do not undercut one another in business transactions; and be as fellow-brothers and servants of Allah.
A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim. He neither oppresses him nor humiliates him nor looks down upon him. Piety is here – and he pointed to his chest three times. It is evil enough for a Muslim to hold his brother Muslim in contempt. All things of a Muslim are inviolable for another Muslim: his blood, his property and his honour.”
[Muslim]

An observation by an Arab American:
Ma sha’ Allah… Black American Sunni Muslim converts seem to have been blessed with a charisma and way of speaking that makes them amongst the most effective propagators of Islam. Malik Shabazz (malcom X), Siraj Wahhaj, Khalid Yasin, Abdullah Hakim Quick, Bilal Phillips, Jamil el-Amin, and countless other brothers giving da’wa for decades now amongst both the Tabligh Jamaat and the Salafis. May Allah bless them.
as salaam aliykum wa rahima
MashAllah sister you are doing some wonderful work carry on..and i totally agree with you
Salaam Aleikum
I have met him, spoken to him, eaten with him and listened to him.
I have been very observant and analytical of his behaviour and dealings with people and nothing, absolutely rings my alarm bells. I have donated as well and remember for Muslims, the most important thing before an action is the intention and then Allah decides for you to receive hasanat or not. Do not worry to much about where it will be used as long as you feel the person trustworthy.
I sat with him at a restaurant with a few people eating and after finishing, he starts making dawah to two elderly ladies. Now if he was a con then he would have chosen a m,uch larger audience to do this in front of. Shame on those Muslims who listen and affirm the accusations from the mouths of non-Muslims. Imagine these kind of Muslims in a narration of the Prophet (saw)… The hadith would have been categorized as fabricated!
Salam u Alaikum,
I have seen Shaykh Khalid Yasin lectures, and i feel so ashamed of those muslims who called themselves sunnis, wahabis or anything, and they listened to these things from the mouth of the non-muslims and make up their minds, this video has been fully edited and have chosen specific parts to demolish the respect of Shaykh, i believe he is a great man and a great scholar.
((They are planning and plotting , and Allah too plans and plots , Allah is the best of plotters ))
BisMilah, Salam walekum Brothers and sisters in faith..
I ‘ve watched many lectures of Khalid Yasin, and I have to say: The Man is knowledgeable and is guided at times By Allah. But we all always seek for guidance 5 times a day in our daily Salah. “Lead Us to The straight Path”. Indeed we need it all. Khalid Yasin made many lectures and still making more alhamdulelah.. so people say so what? well people watch those lectures e.g (Purpose of Life 1 , 2 & 3) and (why should we recognize God?) & (Our beginning & our end) and then say so what!! when the truth is realized people become Muslim. As For Khalid alhamdulelah when He Represents our Case (Islam) Many People by Allah’s will Accept it and Embrace it. As for His Faults (God Knows best if He’s facing difficulties, failed, still trying) Or purposely Scammed them Then May Allah Cover His Faults or short comings and Lead Him to The Right Path
So They May Realize what really happened with Him as they realized (most of them) That Islam Is the Truth..
Khald Yasin lhas lecture on halal tube called [moving beyond the rituals ]that is absoutely electrifying with alot of insight.The brother has alot of good things to and he he a good pulse on the the muslim degeneration no doubt.With all that said that still doesen’t mean he should put in leadership postion or even a postuon of responbilty were he is handling tons of donated money contributed by sincere muslims.
Because the man can give a good speech does that mean that the MUSLIMS that he ROBBED should not have their money returned to them? Can you all not see that he is counting on people letting him off the hook because he is famous

It is so amazing, it is so amazing the media cares about the Muslim community and its business. Why is Shaykh Khalid Yasin such a threat to you all. Let’s just say for the sake of argument that your allegations are correct and he is robbing the muslim world why does the media care about that, how convenient for you all to take such an interest. I believe he has been blessed with a gift from Allah (swt) to reach out to the youths of Islam and it scares you all to death. Lady journalist let me tell you something, none of you can take away his noor (light) none of you so, I suggest you leave him alone. Take my advice, because if you try to bring him down and might even be successful to get some other muslim brothers and sisters to believe you Allah (swt) would someone else who would be stronger and better to do Allah (swt) works. Allahu Akbar (Allah is the greatest). Try, you would only fail and fail miserably. I am proud to be a fan of Shaykh Khalid Yasin may Allah (swt) forgive him Insha Allah (God willing) and Bless him Insha Allah and continue to give him the strenght and the guidance he needs to continue the dawah. Shame on us Muslims who encourage and support this nonsense by the media who wants to stop the spread of the Islamic dawah at any cost. May Allah (swt) have mercy upon us all and make us stronger in the deen. — Some advice to you lady journalist you need to watch the DVD from Shaykh Khalid Yasin the Stranger because we love and we will continue to love him even with his faults and we will accept his faults and pray for him because he is our brother in Islam and we love him for the sake of Allah (subhana tallah).
How offensive is this crap to Muslims! Once again they are being singled out and no one thinks twice about investigating what the Christians say in their church, or what the Jews say in their temples, and we all know how much hate is spewed there. Khalid Yasin is a sweet peaceful man, people hold a grudge towards him because he converted from Christianity to Islam no sense in hiding that fact. You wont see him break out and speak in tongue thats for sure… May God Bless him always.
Wallahi you people get EXACTLY what you deserve with these con men that rob you of your money. You are personality struck cultists
[...] preachers like Yusuf Estes, Abdur Raheem Green and Khalid Yasin are known to speak to huge crowds and have huge followings as well, though they may not be as [...]
FITNAH Dont trust the non Muslim
Typical media and government attempting to disrupt the muslim community. Just like when the African Americans were coming together and forming the Black Panther movement. It didnt last long because the media and government start turning the black community against itself. Now we have black community killing each other and the women selling themselves for the sake of “gangster/hip hop/street” culture which was invented by the media to kill any unity amongst the blacks. Now we have the media turning the muslims against their strongest forces. How many times have I heard a muslim slandering the scholars and speakers who leave a huge impact on them? Too many times. This is getting out of control. The muslims need to stand up and stay united! Like for real people wake up and stop being influenced by the media.
“It’s just the way it be, eyes wide shut up
And sit down, put your hands up for your turn to speak”
You are right Em. I have lived through whole thing of the media trashing the Black Panthers. Also, your other comments are right on the money. Muslims must stand up an stay united and stop falling into traps setup by the kuffar.
you guys are always happy to see Muslims in misery but guess what none of you can blow out the light of ALLAH and whomever ALLAH wants to guide he will guide him and whomever ALLAH doesn’t want to guide there is no one who can….. So brother Khalid may ALLAH BLESS YOU and give you strength to spread his word …INSHAALAAH….
assalamu alaikum
dear brothers and sisters I am very sorry for this man who calls himself sheich khalid yasin, i bought over 2200 dvds from him for wholesale, one title of 100dvds are empty or damaged, so i told him after i find out (some months later after one customer complains) and this is his reply:
WE HAVE NEVER HAD THIS KIND OF EXPERIENCE FROM ANYONE, AND IT IS REDICULOUS FOR YOU (A MUSLIM AND
A BUSINESSMAN) TO ACT THIS WAY, WHEN IT IS YOUR OWN MISTAKE AND FAULT THAT YOU DID NOT TAKE THE TIME
TO VERIFY YOUR ORDER SIX MONTHS AGO!!
so in I had to control 2200 dvds if they are damaged when I got them sealt as well who will do this???For me it becomes clear this khalid yasin is not to trust, we can only make dua for him that Allah swt will make him a rigtheous man
(excuses for my bad english)
I cant understand that people cant believe what they see from their eyes but they believe what the media is telling them; which is not confirmed by any authentic source. Only based on the reports of some so called paid news-persons and reporters. Who just try to create some stories which are most of the times wrong.
So I think people must listen what Sheikh Khalid Yasin is saying right now about belief and other things like that (Islam) instead of what he has done in his past.
If someone is afraid that after listening his lectures he or she will become a real beneficial for the humankind, I think he or she must be thankful to Sheikh Khalid instead of criticizing him. As for as I am concerned I really got a lot of encouragement from his lectures and they really helped me o rethink about my lifestyle. I really feel the positive change. And I am thankful to him. God bless him forever.

Just listen this….
A focused Muslim, who thinks that it is also his responsibility to spread the message of Islam will actually become inspired by this video. Remember brothers and sisters, who are we to judge? leave it to Allah.
what we should do is atleast stop criticizing such personals who are great assets to Islam. If you don’t want to acknowledge it, fine, but please stop going along with the Kuffars and blaming this sacred effort of this man.
It hurts to see fellow Muslims doing this.
Allah knows best.
Dear Muslim brothers and sisters, forget about Khalid yasin for a moment, and just visit the profile of Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, the author of all the articals about Sheikh Khalid Yasin.
This guy Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, has been writing about all HARAAM things like the music industry, Michael Jackson is his favorite i guess. So, my picture about all his articles regarding Khalid Yasin is just that its another article of his to draw attention.
And he probably choose Khalid Yasin because he knows how popular Khalid Yasin is among FAITHFULL Muslims, so its more or less certain that people will read his articles. This itself is an acceptance that Khalid Yasin is a true servant of Allah.
Allah knows best
InshaAllah i am going to start a campaign against this guy Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, all brothers and sisters are welcome.
I challenge this guy Abdur-Rahman Muhammad to become a good muslim himself, before trying to correct or blame other muslim brothers. Who am I to judge? yes, i cannot judge you, but can any muslim brother or sister agree with his involvement with music??? Isn’t it HARAAM?
Start the campaign Yusuf and I’ll be there, Inshallah.
@Adilah: By campaign i meant to spread the word in the internet, specially this page. and if this guy continues to write such articles we can take it up on Facebook and twitter.
But I do sincerely wish that brother Abdur-Rahman Muhammad understands that the non-muslims are doing this in purpose to create a faction in our united Ummah. I don’t have to tell you the history of Channel-9, we know who they are!!!!!
It’s sad to say that brother Abdur-Rahman Muhammad and many other muslims are only helping the cause of the kafirs by doing such activities. lets make dua that Allah gives such brothers and sisters the true understanding because what ever said he is still one of us.
EVERYONE PLEASE REMEMBER, WE HAVE TO HOLD BACK OUR EMOTIONS BECAUSE, UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL!!
JazakaAllah Khair
muslims should see all people as brothers and sisters. people should be judged based on their character not what their religious belief is. this man targets the insecurities of some muslims who feel left out, or as the other, to benefiet himself. a lot of religious leaders in the muslim community do the same as he does. they force other people to follow their belief or polotical view by saying that there is a dichotomy of us against them or vise versa. that is clearly not the issue. there is always more to an issue than what may appear. what ever happened after september 11 has a lot more behind it than we know. we should not be so quick to label people as the enemy.
i do not want to sound pessimistic but there isn’t complete unity in any group. this also applies to islam. there will be a divide because not all people will agree on issues together. we have to learn to accept that others have different beliefs even in our own groups and accept them.
the problem today is that the spiritual aspect of islam is being left behind and a political one is being embraced. Islam is about peace and bettering oneself, which betters society collectively.
