So, I turn to you, my collective hive brain. Who is this “Dr.” “Prof.” Zaid Hamid? He has, from most accounts, secured a niche similar to Glenn Beck in Pakistani media – combining ultra-nationalism with a taste for finding Zionist or Hindu involvement in the Pakistani sphere. Here he explains, for example, what truths lie behind “conspiracy theories”:
“We are against the Zionist politics of the Brahmanical elite”. Alrighty then. Some other hair-raising stuff here with Ali Azmat.
He is also, through his privately produced program Brass Tacks, engaged in producing historical narratives – from Khalid b. Walid to 1857 – the “War of Independence”. (“More Indians were killed by the British between 1757 and 1857 than at any time in the previous 5000 years”). Naturally, this makes me very, very interested in him, professionally speaking.
The cursory searches on the internets reveal all kind of contestations – he is an agent of ISPR, he is a true Muslim, he is a former acolyte of a claimant to the Prophethood, he is a true Muslim, etc. What I am really interested in, is figuring out his audiences, his appeals to them, and his theories of media (and mediation). His wiki page is no more than a stub. Can we fill this profile up? Can we place him on a scale of Glenn Beck to Yusuf al-Qaradawi?

An ingenious/ingenuous proof for the the fundamental theorem of Islam: Religion Cannot Be Blamed.
From this the corollary easily follows. As Islam Is The Perfected Final Religion, It Can Never Be Blamed.

ONE THING IS COMMON BETWEEN US (SAME FEELINGS ABOUT RELIGION AND COUNTRY)BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT YOU SHARE AND WORK ON IT.BUT I HAVE NO ONE TO SHARE SO I HIDE THEM INSIDE ME AND WAIT UNTIL THE TIME COME FOR REVENGE.
I know a liitle about Mr. Zaid Hamid, I listened his peeches on Economic Terrorism, I agree with his views in those speeches, I also know that there are some ulema in Pakistan who have issued Fatwas against Mr. Zaid, I know that these ulemas are the puppets of Indian and zionist and Christian enemies, I know that Mr. zaid may have not followed the so called Yousuf Kazzab.
The person who is good and he can benefit muslims in general is always the target of our enemies, our enemies will never target these stupid ulemas.
respected teacher,
assalam-u-alikum.

Unfortunately when ever a man take stand against those who are the enimies of Pakistan, the public and politiciens having fun with them,, Zaid Hamid is one of them, Misriable man… he has and hugh explosure and have good eye on Pakistan Securitary, economic and politically senerio… he is also a sensitive man who really love his contry, but the Govt officials and public have no notice of all his reservations …
keep going Mr. Zaid all true lovers of Pakistan with you. specially the Youth of pakistan support you….
God Bles u and God bless Pakistan,
Sir i like to met u you always speek truth ilike this>>>>>>
i wish and pray to Allah[s h t] that one day we pakistanies have people like Zaid Hamid as our leader INSHALLAH Ameen
this comment thread plus the one unfolding under zaid hamid’s comment under the lums lecture pic on facebook definitely needs to be edited into cm-spin-off slam-poetry-book once!
I feel that the people’s voice really shines through here.
I really don’t understand why people are against him, since I am not in Pakistan for almost 8/9 years and because of tight schedules and work didn’t get chance to follow each and everything going in hometown, so was not well aware about him but few months back got chance to watch a video on youtube http://bit.ly/HQAd3q
this is so impressive, I really liked it and it left me finding more about him then I got to know some people are very against him, why I don’t understand? can anybody explain me why we dislike or go against the person who talks sense? I do agree with Mr. Syed Muhammad Tahir “Unfortunately when ever a man take stand against those who are the enemies of Pakistan, the public and politiciens having fun with them”
I think we should have more people like Zaid Hamid.
Zaid Hamid is a sound man. If a person is really genuine he must respect his idea and knowledge.

all my friends respect u and salute u.
we need u to continue doing this jihad..
rab rakha
Sir, I am sure that u will be fine.
I love the way you have adopted to counter the conspiracies against Islam. Your honour opted to come on media in any shape. Reportedly more than 40% have been invested by america in Pakistani media. It is appreciable to negate the ill comments of our so-called anchor person who are busy to gather money by any mean by day & night. Sir, I have suggestion for yours that your honour should expand the area of developing awareness about Islam and Islamic history, mean to say that why dont you come to attend gathering at small places i.e. small cities & villages. As according to my knowledge revolution always caused by common people, for instance french revolution, iranian revolution, recently done in Egypt, Libya etc.
hi sir i like you and your speach ,and you are my HERO
I find that his enthusiasm is great and really motivating but considering the history of Pakistan very few men in politics have ever been sincere to our nation. I personally have all my life lived in the west and having a true Islamic system would really reform our nation and all the things Mr. Hamid says are pretty correct however I don’t know if he’s too good to be true for Pakistan because as you can examine yourself history has proved otherwise.
Are ppl of pakistan gone mad. According to Islam a man who should be killed, is their hero.
hahahahahahaha
Allah ka Azaabb aa raha hai, aur aata rahay ga iss koom par.
zaid hamid is a good man . he is a patriot for pakistan . he is only person speaks for both pakistan and ummah . good analyst and knowledgable person. keep on i love u .
Sir; i am very proud of me because i am pakistani sir i am with you for islam my very very country pakistan ,i am trying on my all fiends and my relatives for attitud of all sir please specially pray for me i want to achieve my this vision .Thanks
Sir you are great and your cause is great. Allah Pak help us. We and our prayers are with you.
pure muslim and patriotic may live long we must love those peoples who love nation
I like Zaid Hamid. In my opinion he is a true Muslim and a true Pakistani. I do not understand why the Pakistani media does not pay him due attention. Mr. Hamid is a learned man and Pakistani media should give him due importance and proper time and opportunity to place his view point so that the people at large may be benefited.
SYED ZAID ZAMAN HAMID: One the most excellent, honest, person of Pakistan: he knows the entire history of Pakistan. He knows real situation of Pakistan, if you see when he talking with other political persons no one there is to talk him clearly. Everybody like him:
SALAM ZAID ZAMAN HAMID: WE ARE LOVE YOU: please make with own party: INSHALLAH when you make with own party inshallah that time you will be the leader of Pakistan ishallah. Unfortunately when ever a man take stand against those who are the enemies of Pakistan, the public and politicians having fun with them,, you are a true person: and other Political parties jellies to you: inshallah you will be the winner: every time i watching your video there is no one to real talk to you they just make funny:
kuch loag ap ki mazab ke bare ma awam ko barka rahe han. Plz aap ye bata dain ki app kia han . khuch loag kety han ke aap mirzaye hoo. ye baat zaroor clear karen.
Islam Aur Pakistan Pe hamare jane Qurban . Hum mar metain gay lakin En pe anch nahe ane dain ge.
SIR,
ASLAM-O-ALIKUM
I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH
i like your every video every speech you talk about islam and pakistan from your heart NO ONE IS LIKE YOU
i just want to say the people with whom you use to debate they are just for away from Islam i appreciate when every time you tolerate them i do believe like you that one day ALLAH will change everything they way you think it will…. INSHALLAH
He’s a stupid ultra nationalist army booster/self promoter. Also in love with the philosopher/psued0-Allama Iqbal. Apparently 1400 years of Islamic history have not yielded a better man to follow than a Hindi nietzschean, drunkard, “Knight of the British Empire”
Dear friends,
Zaid Hamid is trying to take Pakisthan in to more worse situation. Every Pakisthani should join together to develop your country for the better life of your children. I am an Indian and have a lot of Pakisthani close friends in my life from my carrier in Middle east. I feel that all of them are good and trying to give a better life for their kids. They worried about a lot by the views and words of persons like Zaid Hameed. By developing hatred and violance we are not going to reach anywhere.
i love sir zaid hamid this is the greatest muslim in the world
I think Zaid Hamid is Gay just like rest of porkistan.
ZH ‘m really impressed from ” Public Addresses ” & Speeches but sametime I need clarification from you, what connection you ‘ve with ” Yousuf Kazzab “? I personally consider it a serious issue & you should clarify it immediately. Hope you too ‘ll take it seriously.
Rgds
Looks like he always finds a new thoery to fight. bahut bada chutiya haih
zaid hamid is a great person and gud man i love him
Indeed you are vbery nice person zaid hamid sb
Hypocritical violent useless idiot. inciting hatred everywhere
