Do you want to speak with confidence like these amazing personalities?
00:00:04.100
Every single one of these amazing speakers have taken the same program with brother Mohamed Arshad.
00:00:36.440
Firstly I want to thank you for inviting me to your house.
00:00:42.120
And as you guys might know brothers and sisters.
00:00:44.240
There were some allegations pertaining to for example angel coach or angel tours.
00:01:02.360
So basically a Muslim was driving past and he saw the coach.
00:01:05.580
And obviously there's speculations because as you might know.
00:01:07.740
A group of people who are supporting the BJP, the RSS, the Hindutva group.
00:01:15.580
There was three to four hundred of them who went to Leicester.
00:01:24.400
Obviously they were provoking the Muslim community.
00:01:26.240
And obviously the Muslims are rightfully upset about this.
00:01:33.980
And obviously the Muslim community are very upset.
00:01:36.600
Because people are scared to take their kids outside.
00:01:47.560
But as Muslims and Islam, our religion teaches us basic things.
00:02:11.900
So there was allegations going around that your coaches were the coaches that these Hindutva
00:02:19.000
RSS BJP group used to transport these individuals, these individuals who are belonging to this
00:02:32.660
Did you, was it your coaches that carried these group, these individuals to Leicester?
00:02:43.300
And my coaches never came to Leicester since two months.
00:03:05.360
Saturday morning, it went Isle of White for the whole day trip.
00:03:13.780
Now, as you know, Isle of White, you have to use a ferry.
00:03:25.800
When it came back from Isle of White, on the way back, we had some small technical issue
00:03:33.460
So buzzer was going on when driver was driving.
00:03:41.620
Now, outside Temple, there is a proper lay by where you can park your coach.
00:03:48.340
So when driver told me that this thing is going on, and his driving covers was finished
00:03:58.920
I know it's late night, but because that coach need to go next day, that means Sunday morning
00:04:09.100
Because that's our Sunday job, which same coach need to cover.
00:04:13.700
But because of technical issue, we decided to park that coach, same place.
00:04:27.040
And coach stayed whole night at the same place.
00:04:32.660
Sunday early morning, another driver, one of my friends who drive for us.
00:04:37.640
He took the coach to Dardal Dour and Bournemouth.
00:04:42.120
So that's what that coach did Saturday and Sunday.
00:05:22.540
So we have so many people who knows that they were inside the coach.
00:05:27.940
And coach took them for home around and sightseeing.
00:05:32.120
So that's one coach which I took to the Scotland.
00:05:35.240
Second coach, Friday night, 60 people, we pick up from Ilford.
00:05:50.560
And we took everyone, that coach took everyone to Mahakali temple in Wells.
00:05:55.500
So coach reached around half past four, Saturday early morning.
00:06:00.180
And it departed in the evening from four o'clock, something from there.
00:06:06.840
So that coach went back straight to that Guru dwara, dropped the people.
00:06:19.000
So it came to Illing Road, empty, because he dropped everyone in Ilford.
00:06:23.980
And he pick up another 60, no, that night 40 passengers, something, or 44 passengers.
00:06:43.360
White coach, the third coach Saturday, I will tell you where it went.
00:06:52.800
And that coach came here, Sanatan temple, again 9.30 at night.
00:06:59.580
And that coach, yeah, then it went to drop people at Ilford Istam.
00:07:05.440
Same coach came back to Illing Road, 12 o'clock at night, Saturday night 12 o'clock.
00:07:12.600
So Saturday night, two coaches went to temple, Mahakali temple in South Wales.
00:07:18.260
So that two coaches, all the CCTVs are there, M4, because it's way all the way up to Kamarthan, 220 miles.
00:07:28.440
The whole M4 motorway, services, wherever it's stopped.
00:07:39.280
Now, the blue coach, which they show in a video.
00:07:51.820
Someone took the picture and made the whole story.
00:07:58.180
What I am saying is, okay, you have seen that video, that coach is parked.
00:08:04.420
Obviously, because we live in Wembley, our pickup point is there.
00:08:09.960
So I was going to say, why is your coaches, not that much, I'm just curious.
00:08:13.900
So people are saying it's connected to the temple, which again, it's not an issue.
00:08:19.200
Our issue is not pertaining to the temple or the Hindus and their religion.
00:08:23.260
But it's just that basically they're asking, for example, is your company registered to the temple?
00:08:40.660
Because when I started, I was completely new in this industry.
00:08:51.260
Then I thought, okay, because everyone goes to temple.
00:09:03.220
You know, the parking space where you can stop your coach.
00:09:12.060
So your company is not, there's another misconception that is your company registered into the temple?
00:09:18.740
So if anyone has a doubt, please check Company House website.
00:09:24.520
So, and it won't be in the temple, you're saying?
00:09:37.000
And I don't think there is any sufficient evidence just because somebody is driving past the temple
00:09:40.780
and they see your coach to make a correlation, I think would be unfair.
00:09:47.400
So from your point of view, there's some pictures that were taken.
00:10:00.580
Because what BJP, the BJP RSS group, the Hidudfah in India, this is not an issue where they
00:10:08.400
They have a problem with the Sikhs and the Christians and other minorities that's happening.
00:10:12.880
And there's a lot of back and forth happening with people being killed, you know, mosques
00:10:17.400
being burned, be it Christians being attacked or Sikhs.
00:10:20.500
And even in Leicester, it was a Sikh man who was beaten as well.
00:10:24.540
So the thing is, when they see that, because obviously I think that's where the connection
00:10:32.800
Number two, do you condemn the BJP, the RSS group, what they're doing in India and what
00:10:45.460
Now, see, Corona, you know that in Corona, coach industry suffered a lot.
00:11:01.820
My one coach, yeah, I'm paying 4,000 pound a month installment.
00:11:12.460
Now, when you are doing nothing and if someone hire your coach.
00:11:22.120
There was a G20 big event in Glasgow before one year.
00:11:27.600
And Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, he was coming there.
00:11:32.080
So this group just went to welcome Prime Minister.
00:11:54.860
And obviously, Narendra Modi, he is our Prime Minister.
00:12:00.020
When you feel happy that, okay, your coach is doing a job for your Prime Minister, because
00:12:06.680
he is coming and you are just taking people there to welcoming them.
00:12:12.040
So that's why I put that picture on my Facebook account.
00:12:20.580
Prime Minister, Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.
00:12:25.800
From your point of view, it can be, you know, that's it.
00:12:31.460
Like, for example, if, let's give a Muslim country.
00:12:34.820
If a Muslim country, let's suppose I'm from Turkey.
00:12:37.460
So if in Turkey, my president was persecuting and killing, not directly, indirectly via, you
00:12:48.540
If that party was involved in discrimination and hostility towards certain groups, be it
00:13:00.360
I don't know if you're aware of what's going on in India.
00:13:02.660
But how would you feel if I, for example, my company, my culture company was involved
00:13:09.860
Because what it does is, in a nutshell, it's as if that I'm turning a blind eye to what's
00:13:16.320
So from your point of view, do you, would you say at least that you condemn, like, for
00:13:20.440
example, the BJP and what they're doing towards minorities?
00:13:25.120
If anyone is doing wrong with any human, whether is it a Muslim, is it a Hindu, Christian or
00:13:37.380
Because for me, we all are brothers and sisters.
00:13:48.820
So many Muslim people, yeah, they are like brothers and them.
00:13:55.360
Let me tell you, if you read my itinerary, Scotland, three days, our first stop at Balaji
00:14:04.340
I have so many Muslim clients that choose our Scotland tour and they come with us.
00:14:12.220
They sit inside the coach or they use toilet facilities, but they know that they look at
00:14:34.180
Whenever, even I told them from myself, the brother, don't worry.
00:14:39.680
And we always stop on junction, near junction 33, Lancaster services.
00:14:54.720
Personally, I believe we should have a respect for each and every religious.
00:14:59.160
Why we need to think you are Muslim and you are Hindu?
00:15:05.840
Second thing, if we are that mentality, then personally, I think I should be in India, not here.
00:15:20.280
We are here to look after our family and work hard.
00:15:24.420
But the thing is, that's true what you're saying.
00:15:26.940
That it shouldn't be about Muslim, Christian, Hindu.
00:15:29.460
But the BJP, RSS, the Hindu, they are doing exactly that.
00:15:32.600
What you're saying, they are doing the opposite, which is like you said, we shouldn't be doing
00:15:40.520
But you need to, just from my side, what I'm thinking, you need to understand one thing.
00:15:46.020
A person like me, who is a businessman, who is working hard to feed his family.
00:15:53.060
I have two sisters, my family members, who depend on me.
00:15:56.640
So my concentration is on my business, in my family.
00:16:00.540
I don't want to go, what BJP is doing, because they are big men.
00:16:04.740
See, when you are in trouble, no one is coming.
00:16:12.000
We have nothing to do with, and yes, if something is doing wrong, then wrong is wrong.
00:16:18.220
So would you condemn BJP, RSS, when it comes to their treatment of Muslims in India, Sikhs
00:16:24.600
If they do wrong, then definitely I will condemn.
00:16:42.380
Like me, like if you said to me, for example, we had a couple of years ago, ISIS.
00:16:48.500
What they are doing is wrong and it should be condemned.
00:16:56.700
We don't, personally, me do not support any wrong thing.
00:17:02.940
If my parents is doing wrong, I will not support them.
00:17:09.660
I think what it is, is I think that's, I think that's one of the key things maybe played
00:17:13.120
a role because I think what happened is obviously you cleared that your coach was not involved
00:17:16.900
in that and you've given me the trackers as well.
00:17:20.200
I will show you this evidence as well, which is clear that your coaches were not involved
00:17:27.180
So, I think we need to be just in that and not spread these false rumors.
00:17:30.560
But I think what people were upset about is obviously the coach being parked in front
00:17:35.360
And then I think that picture with the BJP flag, that wasn't you.
00:17:38.340
I can understand, that's why we made the correlation there.
00:17:44.500
See, the way someone is present, the things, yeah.
00:17:54.720
I request one thing to our people, all our Muslim brothers and sisters.
00:18:06.680
If someone is wrong, obviously Allah will punish you.
00:18:35.940
That's why, look, that's why I came here today.
00:18:39.680
That before you call, before you say anything, please find out the truth first.
00:18:46.620
And my request to that person who made this video.
00:19:12.520
To do this type of thing for a family man who hasn't done anything.
00:19:16.200
So, the problem that I'm saying is justice will be served.
00:19:21.200
Because, swear to God, I have so many Muslim friends.
00:19:27.580
Whenever my friends call me, they always say Salaam Alaikum.
00:19:49.140
And you may not know how you may be punished because of an accusation.
00:19:55.500
What did you gain by spreading a false tale about someone?
00:19:59.020
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says to Maryam Alaihah Salatu Wa Salaam,
00:20:03.360
Your sign is that you don't speak to people for three days, except through some signs.
00:20:15.920
Look at how silence has come to the rescue of a person who was innocent.
00:20:20.600
Sometimes, my brothers and sisters, the accusations against you might be so huge that only Allah can clear your name.
00:20:33.580
A day will come when you will be smiling all the way.
00:20:40.800
Now, if you believe in this one, that's why you are here at my home.
00:21:02.020
If I am punishable, yeah, you will not be here.
00:21:05.660
Definitely, people will be here with the stones.
00:21:12.000
So, I would say, brother, Yatin, yeah, look, I came here because at the end of the day,
00:21:24.900
But my religion teaches me that justice, I don't care my differences towards you.
00:21:28.980
If you was my enemy, if I didn't like you, if I personally, I was like, me and Yatin
00:21:34.800
But if your name was tarnished, I would still come here today.
00:21:37.140
Because the matter is not about my issue between you.
00:21:39.660
It's about justice that Allah has told us to live by.
00:21:53.780
So, what message would you give to these young Hindu, like Hindu, like we've given a message
00:21:59.760
But to the Hindu, the Hindu group, the ones who went to Leicester.
00:22:04.120
I mean, it was, they just turned up randomly when things were calming down.
00:22:09.000
If they are watching you, what message would you give them for the actions that they've done?
00:22:12.680
Of, you know, some people were beaten, some were stabbed.
00:22:16.380
What message would you give to your community for the youngsters who are watching this?
00:22:19.600
I will always say that never ever do anything which destroy peace.
00:22:27.600
Second thing, do not give trouble to innocent people who have nothing to do with anything.
00:22:39.400
We are here to live peacefully, enjoy the life, work hard, look after our family.
00:22:46.080
And forget about this Hindu, Muslim and everything.
00:22:59.240
I think there's not much that needs to be said, brothers and sisters.
00:23:01.580
All I can say is, those who are watching this, that the angel tours or coaches, their coaches
00:23:15.020
And also, people like Muslim community can be angry and upset, of course.
00:23:19.480
You know, especially, you know, when innocent people have been attacked by certain mobs,
00:23:23.100
you know, belonging to the Hindu to RSS BJP group.
00:23:29.120
So, if he's innocent, I've come here to hear his account and show you the evidence that
00:23:35.080
And like he said, he even, you know, refers to, you know, Allah and Allah.
00:23:42.320
Allah has justice towards even if it's a non-Muslim.
00:23:44.720
That's how Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala works, brothers and sisters.
00:23:48.440
And one of the most things that is just is, for example, brothers and sisters, that what
00:23:55.740
So, we inherently have to know and be better when it comes to justice and not spread false
00:24:03.240
If you see something, you can't think, oh, this, there.
00:24:07.180
Even if there is, yes, I understand BJP picture and the Hindu temple and his coach.
00:24:12.220
Still, there is not evidence for you to come and say this connects here, that connects there.
00:24:20.740
I want to say thank you, Baba Yatin, for inviting me to your house.
00:24:24.980
And please share this video so this misinformation is not spread anymore.
00:24:30.240
As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
