300 families, over 1000 orphans are going to benefit, please help me reach my target now.
00:00:30.000
Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:34.180
I'm in the very park where this heinous crime took place.
00:00:37.320
This is a story which we are starting to hear over and over again, brothers and sisters.
00:00:42.360
A couple of months ago, it happened to a young lady, Sarah.
00:00:47.200
And the spot that I'm standing in, brothers and sisters, is where it happened to sister Sabina.
00:00:51.740
The question that we need to ask is what is causing these men, or whoever it may be,
00:00:58.600
to carry out these heinous attacks, brothers and sisters?
00:01:01.340
How is it that a female cannot go, walk safely on the streets of London or wherever it may be?
00:01:10.640
And we need to ask this question on a micro level and on a macro level.
00:01:14.660
What is causing on a micro level for such individuals to commit such heinous crimes
00:01:20.320
that an innocent person like sister Sabina or sister Sarah
00:01:32.660
Brothers and sisters, this is my point of today.
00:01:36.700
Because as a man, a young man, I have to ask and beg the question,
00:01:41.560
what would cause any man in their right man, right mind to do this?
00:01:47.840
I've left my house, all the way in North London, to come here, as you guys could see.
00:01:51.900
To cover this story, and I've been wanting to cover this story from the very beginning,
00:01:55.000
but I had some family matters that I had to attend to.
00:01:58.780
So even being ill, I had to get out of the way.
00:02:01.380
I didn't have a cameraman, may Allah bless, I asked a brother to come,
00:02:04.160
and he's filming for me, brothers and sisters, yeah?
00:02:05.780
And as Muslim, brothers and sisters, Islam has come to preserve five things.
00:02:11.460
The health, the wealth, the mind, the religion, and the lineage of every individual.
00:02:18.280
And it does this on a micro level and on a macro level.
00:02:21.120
Now, I'm going to tell you how this connects to the problem that we're living in,
00:02:24.460
and the lifestyle that we live today in the Western world, liberalism,
00:02:31.380
Brothers and sisters, we live in a selfish society.
00:02:32.960
And what I'm about to say, I'm not saying it has any correlation or causation to this.
00:02:36.960
I'm talking about a bigger, broader picture, brothers and sisters.
00:02:39.300
When a certain study was done, over 600 men, and they asked them that when they,
00:02:44.420
and the study carried out showed that as adolescents, when they were watching pornography,
00:02:49.300
that caused them to carry out violent crimes in their adult lives.
00:02:53.740
Brothers and sisters, the dehumanization of women,
00:02:58.160
the dehumanization of females, sisters, girls, whoever they meet.
00:03:06.960
Why should innocent young girls' lives be taken in such ways?
00:03:12.880
Why does one contemplate or disvalue the life of females?
00:03:17.880
Brothers and sisters, the macro problem is our society.
00:03:21.160
Every time I drive down the road being the A406, when I'm in Oxford Street, when I open my phone, when I open the TV,
00:03:29.440
whatever it may be, all I see all the time is the sexualization of women.
00:03:37.680
Because a study carried out a couple of years ago, I think more than 10 plus years ago,
00:03:42.100
showed that when men look at women in bikinis or whatever it may be,
00:03:46.340
the part of the brain that lights up for tool use, tool use, they don't even see them as co-human beings.
00:03:52.200
And once again, I'm digressing from the very event, but I'm trying to make a bigger, broader picture of brothers and sisters.
00:04:03.040
And I'm not using these instances to propagate Islam, but I'm just being real.
00:04:10.480
tell the believing men and the believing women to lower your gaze.
00:04:17.400
if I see a woman who may be dressed inappropriately or appropriately,
00:04:20.920
in a hijab or a niqab or wearing whatever it may be that she wants,
00:04:30.300
The point I'm trying to make, brothers and sisters,
00:04:32.340
is that I am not even allowed, by God Almighty,
00:04:36.760
to even, when I'm looking, and if I have any kind of thought,
00:04:40.940
I am not allowed to even fathom or think of anything sexual.
00:04:45.660
And that is the reason why we are told to lower our gaze.
00:04:48.720
Meaning, as Muslim men, that is how we should be, yeah?
00:04:52.620
That we are not even allowed to see or comprehend or for a moment,
00:04:58.100
That's why we are told, tell the believing men.
00:05:06.460
that you should lower your gaze only for those who are dressed correctly,
00:05:11.440
It deals with this issue for men on a micro level,
00:05:24.360
you will understand how women are going to lengths of trying to beautify themselves.
00:05:28.720
And they think that the only thing they have to offer is the beauty.
00:05:35.940
For example, these adverts, sexualization of women,
00:05:51.420
There was a video, and I'm not saying there's correlation equals causation.
00:05:56.480
and they said one of the factors in the heinous crimes of watching pornography,
00:06:24.080
And when these things are implemented in a society,
00:06:26.480
it's to preserve the moral ethics of everybody as a whole.
00:06:30.980
So that if one perverted individual commits a heinous crime,
00:06:40.200
Because once it's dealt with it on a micro level
00:06:57.300
and other factors which cause great harm in many ways,
00:07:11.840
that I believe this is one of the root causes of,
00:07:16.300
I'm not saying this man did it for that reason.
00:08:35.300
you might hate something which is good for you,
00:08:37.000
and you may love something which is bad for you.
00:08:45.720
those who've wronged others will bear their sins.
