00:00:00.000 How can we have so many devices with so many apps which help us monitor our progress for our body
00:00:04.700 but none for the soul? Not only does it encourage you to read, it tells you how many verses you've
00:00:08.820 read, how many pages you've read, how long you've been on it and best of all the Hasana counter.
00:00:13.320 Download the Qur'ani app now.
00:00:17.660 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:20.900 If somebody asks me to summarize Islam in a nutshell, I would say besides Tawheed, 0.95
00:00:25.320 it is the bitter truth. What do I mean by that? Brothers and sisters, Islam gives you the 1.00
00:00:31.520 medicine that is bitter in the mouth but it's the truth brothers and sisters and it is good for us
00:00:36.680 and that is exactly the reason why brothers and sisters I've changed my whole set and I've got
00:00:40.960 so much more to open up to you guys about my life and many things I'll be covering on this specific
00:00:45.780 show and this new set and more new sets to come. Today's video is specifically about as you guys
00:00:50.240 know what happened in Leicester. Me and Mohamed Hijab were observing what was going on in Leicester
00:00:55.300 from the cricket match to the Hindutva BJP RSS extremist group coming to Leicester provoking
00:01:03.240 Muslims, stabbing individuals, attacking Muslims and many many more by provoking us. 1.00
00:01:08.660 The point of what I'm trying to say is this brothers and sisters, we went there and we went there 0.98
00:01:12.740 purposely, why? To support our brothers and sisters. No Muslim likes to see another Muslim being attacked.
00:01:18.700 Yes, specifically being provoked. We travelled all the way there brothers and sisters to
00:01:22.380 de-escalate the situation and we was in contact with some community leaders. One of them was
00:01:27.040 Majid Freeman. Brothers and sisters, when we went there, some individuals were hostile towards us
00:01:31.500 and these are Muslim, these are from our side. Talking about, you know, recently we talked topics
00:01:35.960 of backstabbing etc. I mean literally on the ground, this is what was going on brothers and sisters.
00:01:40.600 We was there and this was a small minority, let's not twist it. Majority of the Leicester brothers,
00:01:44.600 alhamdulillah, greeted us and thanked us. And we are nobody brothers and sisters. When we go and do these
00:01:48.940 things, we don't want to be labelled a hero. We don't do it for clout. And may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
00:01:52.460 forgive us if we do. We genuinely want to go there and cover it because what I'm about to show you
00:01:57.180 with how the media has spun this whole thing, not towards myself, even though I went there with hijab,
00:02:02.020 but specifically targeting hijab. So the point I want to make is this brothers and sisters.
00:02:06.260 In my country, they say,
00:02:07.920 meaning if I spit up, I've got my moustache in the way. If I spit down, I've got my beard in the way.
00:02:16.320 You are damned if you do and you are damned if you don't. They have twisted this whole thing 0.98
00:02:20.980 to make it out to be as if Mohammed hijab and myself, but specifically Mohammed hijab, 0.98
00:02:26.160 is this Islamist, jihadist, preacher, hate preacher who's stirring up hate. That is total opposite. 0.96
00:02:34.700 But we can't play to their tune, quite frankly. Us breaking cars or running here, running there,
00:02:45.380 that's not going to help us. How's that going to help us? Tell me how the, I'm not going to say
00:02:49.480 to you, don't defend yourself. You know, from the clips that you saw, hijab specifically said, 0.98
00:02:53.980 what will we get out of burning cars or attacking individuals or whatever it may be? This is not
00:02:59.200 the way to go about it. We came there with strategic plans. And we know that this battle is fought not
00:03:05.560 only in the march, but also in the media front. And there's many funds to it that go all the way
00:03:10.060 back to India and what the Muslims are suffering under this BJP, RSS, Hindutva group who have ties
00:03:15.200 and connections to individuals who have started this, who have been inspired by the Nazi Germany
00:03:20.440 by Hitler himself. So brothers and sisters, we look at the smear campaign against Mohammed hijab
00:03:25.020 by Daily Mail, The Telegraph, even Piers Morgan. Well, we're not going to say Piers Morgan
00:03:28.900 specifically said something, but he messaged Mohammed hijab. Now this shows you for some of the
00:03:33.060 individuals who was accusing hijab and myself of clout chasing. The Telegraph, The Sun,
00:03:38.480 The Daily Mail, even Piers Morgan himself, well, through his PA, messaged Mohammed hijab and 0.98
00:03:44.360 asked him to come on the show. This would have been a perfect opportunity for hijab to jump 1.00
00:03:48.660 on the bandwagon and just go and for popularity, whatever it may be. He categorically said no
00:03:54.220 to every single media outlet. When he came to Piers Morgan, he specifically said to this PA
00:04:00.780 to go into a Piers Morgan, the hijab said no. Now I said to myself, and I was speaking 0.85
00:04:06.620 to hijab, bro, why would you do it? You are the perfect guy to dismantle them. You will 1.00
00:04:10.520 deal with them. And he said, Aki, the risks are too high and the gains are too low. And I
00:04:18.560 thought to myself, Subhanallah, that's so true. Because when you go into these places, brothers
00:04:22.960 and sisters, they record what they want to record, they put out what they want to put out. And
00:04:26.400 that's exactly what they were going to do. And hijab saw it for what it is. And he said 0.90
00:04:30.900 no to every single one of them. The point I'm trying to say is the double standards. We
00:04:35.680 are now called jihadists, Islamists, extremists. Before it was called to a group of people who
00:04:41.000 would go and join a foreign group in Syria, wherever it may be. And they were labeled as
00:04:44.980 this. Now, as a Muslim activist, myself, Mohammed hijab or anyone else happens to be, the moment 0.89
00:04:52.860 you get involved in a peaceful protest, and you are there to deescalate the situation and to give
00:04:58.860 some reminder to the youth to not go down the route of taking flags down of or trying to attack
00:05:05.820 innocent Hindus, etc, which never happened. But the BJP, RSS group, these individuals, who when
00:05:11.260 they came, they were attacking, one of the first people to attack was a Sikh man. So you can see
00:05:16.220 that even as Muslims, when we go to a peaceful protest, we are labeled an Islamist or a jihadist or a 0.74
00:05:22.780 Islamic hate preacher. What does one do? And this is where Allah says in the Quran, 0.93
00:05:29.420 the disbelievers will never ever be happy with you until you turn away from your religion. 1.00
00:05:35.340 That is what they want. There is nothing that you can do that they're going to say,
00:05:40.300 we're happy with you now. The only moment and the only place they would say, we are happy with you
00:05:44.620 now. And even then, and even then they won't be happy with you is when you come and say, I have
00:05:49.660 left Islam. Then they will be like, okay, now we love you. Now we respect you. Now we open our hands to 1.00
00:05:56.060 you. And we say, keep your hands closed. Keep what you want to give us away from us. We do not want
00:06:02.460 nothing. Because what we have is more than enough for us. Allah and his messenger, Alhamdulillah is
00:06:09.100 more than enough for us. We do not need anything you're going to give. But the reason I'm doing this
00:06:14.220 video is to show the double standards and the hypocrisy and how they are trying to twist this
00:06:19.340 thing to make it out as if we Muslims came out. They do not even mention this group, three to 400 of
00:06:25.580 them marching and provoking the Muslims and a Muslim boy being stabbed. Nothing about it. So my dear
00:06:32.780 brothers and sisters who are watching this, me, myself and Hijab and many other duat inshallah, we're not
00:06:37.820 just the only ones here. Okay, we're not trying to be heroes. Yeah, we try our best. But we will be making
00:06:43.340 sure that anytime a Muslim is oppressed, or be it a Christian, or even if it's a Hindu, or even if
00:06:49.260 it's Jewish, you know, my video, I've gone to situations where a Jewish man is attacked on the
00:06:53.500 road. Justice is justice. And Allah says in the Quran, be just, even if it's against yourself,
00:06:59.500 be upholders of justice, even if it's against yourself or your own kin. We will live by that
00:07:04.140 justice. And we ask Allah that we die on that justice. And the media smear campaign that they're
00:07:08.300 doing against Hijab is nothing but an absolute lie. And the bitter truth is that Islam is the truth 1.00
00:07:15.500 and we know it's the truth.
