Transcript

00:00:00.960 Guys, before the video starts, I'm doing a winter appeal for Syria, Afghanistan, and Ethiopia, brothers and sisters, inshallah.
00:00:05.660 People are literally freezing. We would never live in those conditions. Help me reach my target to give them some more.
00:00:10.880 I've done the seven-day free trial of the Qur'anly app, and it exceeded all my expectations.
00:00:15.220 Brothers and sisters, you can build a habit with the Qur'an by seven-day free trial, brothers and sisters.
00:00:19.600 No credit card details required at all, and you decide for yourself, is it overrated or is it underrated?
00:00:25.680 Download it and see what time it is.
00:00:30.000 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:32.940 So, as you guys can see, we're in a cafe shop. Why are we in a cafe shop?
00:00:35.200 Because for the past week, me, the cameraman, and a little bit of Zeeshan,
00:00:38.360 he's been away from home, too busy editing, up and down the country, alhamdulillah.
00:00:42.640 But this video is not about that. At this day and age, brothers and sisters, subhanAllah, if you think about it,
00:00:48.160 Mawin Ali, the video I'm about to show you, how he treated that woman, to me, was like, wow.
00:00:54.960 Like, a bit shocking as well. A lot of people watching this will be like,
00:00:57.140 at this day and age, why would a man behave like this towards a woman? Why?
00:01:03.300 You know, a lot of things can become normalized.
00:01:05.980 And this very thing that he does is something that you would rarely see any men in this day and age do.
00:01:13.980 Let's watch the video.
00:01:15.460 He did not look at her, from what I know, once.
00:01:18.400 She's there, he's talking to her, he's conversing with her, but he is focusing here.
00:01:24.600 And I found that beautiful.
00:01:26.120 Every single one of us, men, we suffer from the issue of not lowering our gaze.
00:01:31.220 It is one of the biggest struggles for us men.
00:01:33.640 I'm a man, I can be very, very honest about that.
00:01:35.980 This doesn't mean we go and look, but we have our moments where it's hard,
00:01:39.700 you can't even look left or right when you're driving, or even on your phone.
00:01:42.660 It's everywhere.
00:01:43.640 But I admire, I genuinely admire young men who lower their gaze.
00:01:48.360 Wallahi, I'll be honest with you, I feel like kissing these people's head.
00:01:52.360 He's talking to her.
00:01:54.180 You know, it's not that she's dressed up inappropriate or whatever it may be.
00:01:56.860 The issue of lowering the gaze doesn't matter how she's dressed.
00:01:59.540 It's irrelevant.
00:02:00.040 She can be wearing a hijab in abaya niqab.
00:02:01.940 You can still lower your gaze.
00:02:03.380 And I found it so beautiful that he's there listening and talking to her,
00:02:08.700 not talking to somewhere else.
00:02:10.640 Let's be real here.
00:02:11.140 And in this day and age, brothers and sisters, a lot of men would be doing what?
00:02:15.660 Looking at her, smiling at her, flirting with her, looking her up and down,
00:02:20.240 like she's a piece of meat.
00:02:21.720 And when we look at this, brothers and sisters, how Islam has honored women.
00:02:25.040 And they dare to come and tell us that Islam is oppressive, you know, it sexualizes women, etc.
00:02:30.000 How dare you?
00:02:31.380 How dare you?
00:02:32.160 How many men in this day and age are told, men or people educating their children, young men,
00:02:40.900 that when you go out, be respectful.
00:02:43.640 Do not look at women in that way or that way or in a certain way.
00:02:46.380 No, they are sexualized and objectified continuously.
00:02:51.460 Women are degraded.
00:02:52.540 Wallahi, they have no worth or value.
00:02:54.640 No worth or value except sexual objects.
00:02:57.520 So I just wanted to bring this to your attention.
00:02:59.260 I find it so beautiful.
00:03:00.940 So beautiful.
00:03:01.500 Because Allah says in the Quran, tell the believing men to lower your gaze.
00:03:04.120 Yeah?
00:03:04.860 And subhanAllah, he is actually implementing that.
00:03:07.020 And this is what Islam teaches.
00:03:08.720 This is what Islam is teaching every man, every man from a young age,
00:03:14.080 nurturing them from a young age.
00:03:15.600 That treats women in a respectful way.
00:03:18.420 They have more to damn offer than their body parts.
00:03:22.380 And sadly, the issue just doesn't stop that with men.
00:03:25.560 Women have sadly dropped to a certain level where they think the only thing that they have to offer is their body parts.
00:03:32.600 They have forgotten about the intellect.
00:03:34.240 They have forgotten about more things in motherhood.
00:03:36.660 There's so much other things that they can offer community.
00:03:39.040 And they have dropped it all the way down to a makeup, to a Botox treatment,
00:03:44.340 to getting your hips down, to getting your breasts down, to getting your lips down.
00:03:47.760 And the Muslim women are falling for this.
00:03:49.720 And the Muslim women are falling for this.
00:03:50.800 Even if you have certain hijabi YouTubers, yeah, getting their lips down, big lips, like a balloon.
00:03:55.960 Yeah?
00:03:56.280 I'll be straight up.
00:03:57.040 It's disgusting.
00:03:58.080 It's disgusting.
00:03:59.340 And you're making women feel more ugly and ugly.
00:04:01.460 Women have more to offer.
00:04:02.600 My dear sisters, you guys have more to offer than your looks.
00:04:05.720 Do not get caught up with this.
00:04:07.320 It doesn't mean you don't look after yourself.
00:04:09.300 I'm just saying, wallahi, you guys are honorable women.
00:04:11.940 All of you guys, Muslim women or non-Muslim women, yeah?
00:04:14.900 You have more to offer the world.
00:04:16.860 And I want to salute Prophet Mawin Ali.
00:04:18.400 May Allah bless him.
00:04:19.720 And I admire him and what he did.
00:04:22.560 Brothers and sisters, that's it.
00:04:23.960 I think that was a beautiful reminder.
00:04:25.120 Till next time.
00:04:26.000 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
