As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:18.040
I don't know if you guys have heard about it or seen the footage.
00:00:21.040
I'm about to play the footage to you, inshaAllah.
00:00:27.560
Now, after this incident, after you watched the video,
00:00:29.640
after this incident, he has been saying that he's a Muslim.
00:00:32.480
He has been saying that he slipped and was holding on to this Muslim sister
00:00:41.760
the person who was actually there who saw it for himself
00:00:50.880
He just attacked a Muslim sister in Warden Park.
00:01:01.820
You're going to hide your face after hitting a Muslim sister.
00:01:07.820
We will not allow any woman to be attacked in our areas.
00:01:13.000
Listen, I'm going to start punching your head in, man.
00:01:19.900
If you resist, we will have to use reasonable force to keep you detained.
00:01:31.460
Please, brothers, make sure all the sisters, all the women are safe in our areas.
00:01:44.040
No woman, no matter what color, what religion she is, we will not tolerate her being attacked.
00:01:51.400
As you saw that for yourself, brothers and sisters, this can happen to you.
00:01:56.620
This can happen to any of our sisters, any of our brothers.
00:01:59.500
And sadly, these cowards tend to attack females.
00:02:02.940
You know, they always talk about, you know, Muslim women are oppressed, oppressed, oppressed.
00:02:06.380
I know, we'll save them by oppressing them further.
00:02:11.940
Now, we can see, brothers and sisters, this is the impact that the far right are having on our streets.
00:02:17.140
And this is the same impact, in a negative impact, ISIS and certain individuals with crazy mindsets are having.
00:02:31.680
The far right preach hate and the same thing happen on our streets.
00:02:36.400
We're the ones who are suffering at their hands.
00:02:39.100
A brainwashed individual, most likely, 100%, I will have no doubt, this man has been watching Britain First, Tommy Robinson and his likes.
00:02:47.140
In order for us to stop these brothers and sisters, we need to carry on educating these people.
00:02:55.860
We need to tell them the true message of Islam.
00:02:57.880
And alhamdulillah, by setting up our organization, Salam Studios, we are doing that and you have helped us.
00:03:04.620
And I'm doing this video to highlight this issue.
00:03:09.120
Because the more it goes under the carpet, the more it starts to smell.
00:03:12.420
That is the reason why such people like Tommy Robinson and his likes have to be locked up.
00:03:23.820
This is the reason why we are so stern towards the far right and certain individuals like Anjum Chowdhury and his followers.
00:03:31.260
Because it's at their hands that these people are getting brainwashed, sadly.
00:03:40.700
If this guy was really a Muslim or if not, inshaAllah.
00:03:43.340
So this is a little clip that I'm playing from the brother himself of what he saw and what happened.
00:03:55.680
All of you guys must have seen the video that's, well, quite frankly, has gone viral today
00:04:01.660
regarding an individual who was restrained and detained under citizen's arrest
00:04:13.820
This guy, what I wanted to say, since this video's come out,
00:04:19.020
we've had local community members, men, including women, that have come forward
00:04:25.940
and actually have stated that this isn't a one-off incident that's happened.
00:04:34.420
This individual has followed one of my neighbors.
00:04:40.520
He's followed her a few times on the washable heat road until she gets home.
00:04:48.100
Many males in the community have told this individual to stay away.
00:04:54.580
There are a lot of people that have been commenting.
00:04:58.220
It could be just or maybe somebody's got it wrong.
00:05:04.380
So, what I'm trying to say is what we've done today, we've done nothing wrong.
00:05:14.420
No matter if you're white, you're black, you're brain, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Jews,
00:05:24.840
Our duty as men is to protect our community and protect our women.
00:05:30.400
That's my message and I just want to thank everybody for the really nice messages.
00:05:39.400
But all I want to say, in my eyes, this is nothing special that I've done.
00:05:44.340
This is my duty as a Muslim to protect our people.
00:05:48.780
So, if anything, I would like everybody to please pray for me, pray for my family,
00:05:56.520
and just remember me and my family into adawas.
00:06:00.500
So, you clearly heard for yourself that he was a witness, two English ladies were a witness,
00:06:07.260
And some people, some people would actually believe that he slipped up.
00:06:11.100
And he managed to hit or hold on to the sister, wherever it may be.
00:06:15.480
Inshallah, let's raise awareness, inshallah, and let's educate people.
00:06:18.120
Brothers and sisters, you might turn a blind eye, you might be too busy,
00:06:20.520
you know, I'm making my money, you know, I've got a business, I've got a nice car, my family's safe.
00:06:24.680
Brother, if you do not do something about it, however it may be,
00:06:29.700
by educating these people, this is going to be your sister next.
00:06:33.080
I have no doubt this is going to be your mother, your daughter, your wife, or your sister.
00:06:38.460
Support organisations who are in the front line.
00:06:41.300
Whoever it may be, Aira, alhamdulillah, another beautiful example,
00:06:57.520
so we can tackle these issues and put an end to this madness.
00:07:02.560
Till next time, assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
