I need some inspiration to help me get closer to faith.
I pray, but i feel like i want to listen to something to inspire me and motivate me to have more faith.
Maybe a young speaker ( who lectures in english)
any recommendations please?

Nouman Ali Khan is good speaker.

Try to attend your weekly/monthly or whatever sort of Islamic gathering you have in your community - it helps to be in such gatherings and shows your effort to Allah.

Do you have your question answered or would you like a different answer? Unfortunately my version of getting closer to the faith does not involve a young speaker lecturing in English.
Re: I need some inspiration!
I really liked the video the stayya put up, it was almost exactly what i was looking for-returning to Allah. It has bought be so much inner peace and happiness, he targets people of my age in easy english which is great.
Anything on returning to Allah would be fantastic, even if its not in english but if its in urdu it will have to be very simple urdu.

The video ... I loved it ... I was not going to send you a lecture to watch though ... I was going to ask you to cook a dish for your neighbour and give it to them and tell us about it on this forum ... Do it for the sake of Allah (SWT) ... Remember me in your du'as.

I already do quite a lot of charity work with Allah in mind, I guess what I was asking was how do I become closer to Allah and the video answered that, it was as if it was directed to me especially!

I guess I already knew that ... :) ... perhaps my post would benefit another person.

better start doing something which we will make others happy. It won't have to be huge, even little kindness & forgiveness goes a long way. it doesn't matter you don't have masjid in your city or fellow Muslims. Allah is everywhere, just make your face towards Kabaah and start talking.
Re: I need some inspiration!
You could listen to lectures of Kamal el Mekki, plenty of vids on YouTube. Entire lectures are available there, but also just 2-5 minute pieces which you could try to get an idea of what he is like.
He explains well, talks about important daily life issues which is very needed. Many lecturers talk about theories of all kinds of interpretations, which are important too, but often we don't think about our behaviour in daily life. We don't know much about the behaviour of a real Muslim in daily life. Kemal el Mekki provides excellent information on these subjects and he is very funny.
