00:00:00.000 The people of Yemen are suffering from the worst humanitarian crisis in the last 100 years.
00:00:06.000 22.2 million people are in need of urgent humanitarian assistance.
00:00:12.000 Nearly 100,000 children have already died.
00:00:16.000 One Umar are on the ground providing food, water and medicine.

00:00:24.000 Nice to see both of you.
00:00:26.000 Let's take a script out, let's take a script out. Ready? Let's pause.
00:00:30.000 Got it. My brother Mufti I preach.
00:00:34.000 My initial gut reaction was this, this isn't, this isn't right.
00:00:40.000 Really?
00:00:41.000 Yeah, immediately I was like, I mean why are you, why are you promoting such people?
00:00:47.000 I'll be honest yeah, I used to respect Mufti Menka a lot.
00:00:52.000 This journey, this road that I travel on.
00:00:58.000 From a juvenile, where my clothes had holes in them.
00:01:01.000 And my afro was picky.
00:01:03.000 To them 90s, Moschino and Versace.
00:01:06.000 No laces in Arachis, new millennia.
00:01:09.000 One second.
00:01:10.000 One second.
00:01:11.000 Picking on college students, young ones, little ones.
00:01:16.000 One second, one second.
00:01:21.000 One second.
00:01:22.000 I'll do it again.
00:01:24.000 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:01:28.000 Yes.
00:01:29.000 Welcome to another show with Smile2Jannah.
00:01:31.000 We had a little boy.
00:01:33.000 Boy.
00:01:34.000 Boy.
00:01:35.000 Boy.
00:01:36.000 Sitting here.
00:01:37.000 Making statements of perfunctory.
00:01:39.000 Yes.
00:01:40.000 Picking on untrained ones.
00:01:43.000 Young ones.
00:01:44.000 Untrained ones.
00:01:45.000 Little ones.
00:01:46.000 Weak ones.
00:01:47.000 I think you used untrained twice.
00:01:50.000 For the reason why, you only want to deal with college students.
00:01:56.000 Young ones.
00:01:57.000 Untrained ones.
00:01:58.000 Little ones.
00:01:59.000 Weak ones.
00:02:00.000 Bro.
00:02:01.000 I'm sorry.
00:02:02.000 I just find this guy so funny wala.
00:02:04.000 By the way, brothers and sisters.
00:02:05.000 If you're going through any kind of depression or anxiety wala.
00:02:06.000 I was watching some stuff here.
00:02:07.000 Yeah.
00:02:08.000 I personally opened that video of hijab and I watched it.
00:02:09.000 Well, I'm being honest because psychologically your body releases certain endorphins.
00:02:25.000 What is it called?
00:02:26.000 Endorphins.
00:02:27.000 Endorphins.
00:02:28.000 Yeah.
00:02:29.000 That actually you should force yourself to smile.
00:02:30.000 Okay.
00:02:31.000 So basically, I don't know if you know, but Mufti Menk.
00:02:33.000 I think.
00:02:34.000 Was doing a live.
00:02:35.000 And we know the last time he did a live and invited a sister.
00:02:38.000 What happened there?
00:02:39.000 The reaction video.
00:02:40.000 You did one as well.
00:02:41.000 Yeah.
00:02:42.000 It was absolutely very good.
00:02:43.000 Alhamdulillah.
00:02:44.000 But now this time.
00:02:45.000 Adam Saleh.
00:02:46.000 Brother Adam Saleh.
00:02:47.000 And Slim.
00:02:48.000 Joined the live.
00:02:49.000 Shady.
00:02:51.000 Maybe.
00:02:53.000 Yes.
00:02:54.000 What do you mean maybe?
00:02:55.000 Like it hasn't.
00:02:56.000 Like it hasn't happened yet.
00:02:57.000 You're going to find out.
00:02:59.000 So now.
00:03:00.000 I want to ask you a question.
00:03:01.000 What was your first reaction to that?
00:03:02.000 Because I'm going to give you my genuine first reaction to that.
00:03:04.000 And we're going to watch the video.
00:03:06.000 But what was your first reaction when you saw like Mufti Menk getting them on their live feed and talking in general?
00:03:14.000 How did you feel?
00:03:15.000 My initial gut reaction was.
00:03:19.000 This.
00:03:20.000 This isn't.
00:03:21.000 This isn't right.
00:03:22.000 Really?
00:03:23.000 Yeah.
00:03:24.000 Immediately.
00:03:25.000 I was like.
00:03:26.000 I mean.
00:03:27.000 Why are you.
00:03:28.000 Why are you promoting such people?
00:03:29.000 That was my immediate.
00:03:30.000 Like without.
00:03:31.000 Logically.
00:03:32.000 Or religiously putting stuff.
00:03:34.000 Emotionally.
00:03:35.000 The emotion reaction was.
00:03:36.000 Why are you promoting them?
00:03:38.000 Hmm.
00:03:39.000 That.
00:03:40.000 That was my thing.
00:03:41.000 Like.
00:03:42.000 Yeah.
00:03:43.000 I mean.
00:03:44.000 I'm sure there's other people.
00:03:45.000 That would.
00:03:46.000 If you promote them.
00:03:47.000 They would actually bring benefit to the people.
00:03:49.000 But hey.
00:03:50.000 You're promoting these guys.
00:03:51.000 Like.
00:03:52.000 Are they going to be.
00:03:53.000 Are they going to be bringing benefit to the people?
00:03:54.000 That was my initial.
00:03:55.000 I'll be honest.
00:03:56.000 Yeah.
00:03:57.000 I respect.
00:03:58.000 Mufti Menk a lot.
00:03:59.000 When he brought.
00:04:00.000 Adam Saleh.
00:04:01.000 And.
00:04:02.000 Slim Shady.
00:04:03.000 By the way.
00:04:04.000 May Allah bless all three of them.
00:04:05.000 Yeah.
00:04:06.000 We have nothing personal against them.
00:04:07.000 I was like.
00:04:08.000 Really?
00:04:09.000 Like.
00:04:10.000 Come on.
00:04:11.000 Like.
00:04:12.000 Really?
00:04:13.000 Now.
00:04:14.000 Musa has been speaking to me.
00:04:15.000 And he said to me.
00:04:16.000 Bro.
00:04:17.000 Don't be reactionary.
00:04:18.000 And I've made a promise to myself.
00:04:19.000 That any kind of controversy that happened.
00:04:20.000 I'm either going to stay away from it.
00:04:21.000 Or I'm going to wait a week or two weeks.
00:04:23.000 Just to calm down and let things settle.
00:04:24.000 Because sometimes.
00:04:25.000 It's like.
00:04:26.000 Oh no.
00:04:27.000 I have to do.
00:04:28.000 No.
00:04:29.000 That's why I've took it on board.
00:04:30.000 So what I've done is.
00:04:31.000 This was about a week ago.
00:04:32.000 Two weeks ago.
00:04:33.000 Something like that.
00:04:34.000 Yeah.
00:04:35.000 So.
00:04:36.000 Thinking a lot.
00:04:37.000 I've been thinking.
00:04:38.000 Yeah.
00:04:39.000 Why would you do that?
00:04:40.000 Yes.
00:04:41.000 But then my respect for him grew further.
00:04:42.000 So I used to respect him.
00:04:44.000 But now my respect grew to him.
00:04:46.000 Now.
00:04:47.000 You'll be saying to me.
00:04:48.000 Okay.
00:04:49.000 Why?
00:04:50.000 Clickbait.
00:04:51.000 You know.
00:04:52.000 Well.
00:04:53.000 You can say that as well.
00:04:54.000 But I'm being honest.
00:04:55.000 Where was you.
00:04:56.000 Seven years ago.
00:04:57.000 Eight years ago.
00:04:58.000 Learning grammar.
00:04:59.000 Trust me.
00:05:00.000 Yeah.
00:05:01.000 I wish that was.
00:05:02.000 These are my concerns.
00:05:03.000 Where was you?
00:05:04.000 You don't want to know.
00:05:05.000 So.
00:05:06.000 I said.
00:05:07.000 Nah.
00:05:08.000 You know what.
00:05:09.000 At the end of the day.
00:05:10.000 Let's watch it.
00:05:11.000 And let's elaborate further.
00:05:12.000 Yeah.
00:05:13.000 Okay.
00:05:14.000 So.
00:05:15.000 I'll be honest.

00:07:12.000 Yeah.
00:07:13.000 By the way guys.
00:07:14.000 I am raising.
00:07:15.000 I'm trying to raise 20,000 pounds for Yemen by the way.

00:07:18.000 And inshallah give for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:07:20.000 But you know.
00:07:21.000 I was going to ask a question man.
00:07:22.000 Why do we sometimes feel.
00:07:24.000 Like.
00:07:25.000 The message of Islam is only for the righteous.
00:07:27.000 Because what he said that.
00:07:28.000 He's like.
00:07:29.000 May Allah bless you both.
00:07:30.000 You know.
00:07:31.000 Etc.
00:07:32.000 You know.
00:07:33.000 The message of Islam came to who?
00:07:34.000 The worst of the worst people.
00:07:35.000 You know.
00:07:36.000 The worst of the worst people.
00:07:37.000 And I had to do a self reflection and say.
00:07:39.000 You know.
00:07:40.000 Ali.
00:07:41.000 Come on man.
00:07:42.000 Where was you before.
00:07:43.000 Etc.
00:07:44.000 You may have needed someone like that.
00:07:45.000 How dare you think to yourself.
00:07:46.000 Oh.
00:07:47.000 Why is Mufti.
00:07:48.000 Etc.
00:07:49.000 Yes.
00:07:50.000 Mufti.
00:07:51.000 Do you not think Mufti Meng doesn't know this.
00:07:52.000 That what they're doing.
00:07:53.000 He does.
00:07:54.000 But the fact that he can reach out to them Aki.
00:07:55.000 Maybe he's doing a better job than we try to.
00:07:57.000 Do you get.
00:07:58.000 Because we did try to.
00:07:59.000 Myself.
00:08:00.000 And you know.
00:08:01.000 Brother.
00:08:02.000 Musa.
00:08:03.000 And a few others.
00:08:04.000 We try to.
00:08:05.000 Yeah.
00:08:06.000 Yeah.
00:08:07.000 To help.
00:08:08.000 Help save Yemen.
00:08:09.000 Because Yemen right now is going through so much in the media.
00:08:11.000 They don't.
00:08:12.000 You know.
00:08:13.000 They don't mention anything about Yemen.
00:08:14.000 And.
00:08:15.000 And.
00:08:16.000 We're blessed to be in a platform where.
00:08:18.000 We're at right now.
00:08:19.000 And.
00:08:20.000 So are you.
00:08:21.000 And.
00:08:22.000 Seeing.
00:08:23.000 Like.
00:08:24.000 Talking here right now.
00:08:25.000 Is like a dream.
00:08:26.000 Knowing that.
00:08:27.000 We're live.
00:08:28.000 And.
00:08:29.000 You can.
00:08:30.000 See.
00:08:31.000 I'm going to tell you something.
00:08:32.000 But.
00:08:33.000 You know.
00:08:34.000 Something.
00:08:35.000 Everyone.
00:08:36.000 Everyone has a different capacity.
00:08:37.000 And.
00:08:38.000 Everyone deals with things in a different way.
00:08:39.000 We're all.
00:08:40.000 Very sad.
00:08:41.000 As to what's happening.
00:08:42.000 To us.
00:08:43.000 It's.
00:08:44.000 Unacceptable.
00:08:45.000 Under all circumstances.
00:08:46.000 And we.
00:08:47.000 As the Ummah family.
00:08:48.000 Would like to see a stop.
00:08:49.000 To any form of.
00:08:50.000 Killing.
00:08:51.000 You know.
00:08:52.000 Destruction.
00:08:53.000 And so on.
00:08:54.000 Completely.
00:08:55.000 We're all on the same page.
00:08:56.000 Alhamdulillah.
00:08:57.000 I think.
00:08:58.000 Mufti Mak looks like.
00:09:00.000 He's recording this.
00:09:01.000 On his microwave.
00:09:02.000 With a predator.
00:09:03.000 I think you're still using.
00:09:05.000 Dial up internet.
00:09:06.000 Yeah.
00:09:07.000 I don't know what.
00:09:08.000 Sometimes.
00:09:09.000 Probably internet.
00:09:10.000 In Zimbabwe maybe.
00:09:11.000 I don't know.
00:09:12.000 Maybe it's a deep fake video.
00:09:13.000 We'll ask him.
00:09:14.000 I always.
00:09:15.000 I always shout you out.
00:09:16.000 Mufti.
00:09:17.000 Every time.
00:09:18.000 People always look at us like.
00:09:19.000 Cause honestly.
00:09:20.000 I'm not a lot.
00:09:21.000 Mufti.
00:09:22.000 I have.
00:09:23.000 Like.
00:09:24.000 Sometimes.
00:09:25.000 You know like.
00:09:26.000 Not every day.
00:09:27.000 Is something.
00:09:28.000 That could best represent me.
00:09:29.000 As a person.
00:09:30.000 You know like.
00:09:31.000 I make mistakes.
00:09:32.000 You know.
00:09:33.000 Honestly.
00:09:34.000 Everything is out there.
00:09:35.000 I'm an influencer.
00:09:36.000 And people keep looking at me.
00:09:37.000 I'm like.
00:09:38.000 As an iconic religious figure.
00:09:39.000 But I always tell them.
00:09:40.000 No.
00:09:41.000 Look at Mufti Mak.
00:09:42.000 Cause like.
00:09:43.000 I feel like you're more.
00:09:44.000 Beneficial to the kids.
00:09:45.000 And youth.
00:09:46.000 As more of an Islamic figure.
00:09:47.000 Like me.
00:09:48.000 I'm a normal kid.
00:09:49.000 And I mess up a lot.
00:09:50.000 I mess up a lot.
00:09:51.000 I mess up a lot.
00:09:52.000 And that's the thing.
00:09:53.000 You find me from my mistakes.
00:09:54.000 And stuff.
00:09:55.000 So like.
00:09:56.000 I always tell them.
00:09:57.000 You know.
00:09:58.000 Look at someone religiously.
00:09:59.000 Look at Mufti Mak.
00:10:00.000 Cause honestly.
00:10:01.000 You always help me.
00:10:02.000 Become a better person.
00:10:03.000 Same here.
00:10:04.000 Yeah.
00:10:05.000 So.
00:10:06.000 It's important.
00:10:07.000 You know.
00:10:08.000 One thing with Slim.
00:10:09.000 It's like.
00:10:10.000 The fact that he's open.
00:10:11.000 And saying.
00:10:12.000 Look.
00:10:13.000 Yeah.
00:10:14.000 He's a human being.
00:10:15.000 He makes mistakes.
00:10:16.000 Etc.
00:10:17.000 There's stuff that he does.
00:10:18.000 Maybe he's not proud of.
00:10:19.000 Or happy with.
00:10:20.000 And that's.
00:10:21.000 Genuine.
00:10:22.000 And I appreciate that.
00:10:23.000 And he's voicing.
00:10:24.000 And saying.
00:10:25.000 Look.
00:10:26.000 I tell them to go.
00:10:27.000 What you.
00:10:28.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:10:29.000 He's separating himself from the sin.
00:10:30.000 Exactly.
00:10:31.000 Which is good.
00:10:32.000 You can commit a sin.
00:10:33.000 As long as you say.
00:10:34.000 Look.
00:10:35.000 This is a sin.
00:10:36.000 Rather than.
00:10:37.000 No.
00:10:38.000 I can.
00:10:39.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:10:40.000 My beloved brothers.
00:10:41.000 You know.
00:10:42.000 It's so nice to hear you.
00:10:43.000 Let me give you good news.
00:10:44.000 A lot of the scholars out there.
00:10:45.000 Have had some terrible pasts.
00:10:47.000 You know.
00:10:48.000 A lot of them have been worse than anywhere you've been to.
00:10:50.000 Brother Slim.
00:10:51.000 Or Brother Adam.
00:10:52.000 And I'm not trying to say that they're bad.
00:10:55.000 Today they're changed.
00:10:56.000 They're scholars.
00:10:57.000 People will be very impatient with guys like you.
00:10:59.000 But the reason why I'm a little bit more impatient.
00:11:01.000 Is because I know their past.
00:11:03.000 And I've seen where they were.
00:11:05.000 And now that they're out.
00:11:06.000 Their impatience is a sign of their love.
00:11:09.000 In a way.
00:11:10.000 For the cause of Allah.
00:11:11.000 But they don't realize.
00:11:12.000 Sometimes the damage that happens.
00:11:14.000 When you use a bad methodology.
00:11:16.000 To get across to people.
00:11:18.000 So.
00:11:19.000 People will call you out sometimes.
00:11:20.000 To say.
00:11:21.000 Listen.
00:11:22.000 That's wrong.
00:11:23.000 This is wrong.
00:11:24.000 Consider what they're saying.
00:11:25.000 Because if they are right.
00:11:26.000 It's a little bit.
00:11:27.000 Even though.
00:11:28.000 You might.
00:11:29.000 Out of your own pride.
00:11:30.000 You just defend yourself.
00:11:31.000 But.
00:11:32.000 At the same time.
00:11:33.000 You must understand that.
00:11:34.000 Everyone is different.
00:11:35.000 Their way of talking is different.
00:11:37.000 They won't show you so much of love.
00:11:39.000 To help you come in.
00:11:40.000 They might show you.
00:11:41.000 Hate.
00:11:42.000 To help you come in.
00:11:43.000 So.
00:11:44.000 It's.
00:11:45.000 Just leave the guys where they are.
00:11:46.000 Let them.
00:11:47.000 Their peace.
00:11:48.000 You.
00:11:49.000 Your peace.
00:11:50.000 I can recommend.
00:11:51.000 To both of you.
00:11:52.000 As younger brothers of mine.
00:11:53.000 Is.
00:11:54.000 Every day.
00:11:55.000 We should be better.
00:11:56.000 Than we were the previous day.
00:11:57.000 That's the main thing.
00:11:58.000 That I want to just tell you.
00:11:59.000 If you know.
00:12:00.000 What do you think?
00:12:03.000 I think.
00:12:04.000 I think.
00:12:05.000 That's.
00:12:06.000 Very good advice.
00:12:07.000 In giving dawah.
00:12:08.000 Because what he's doing is.
00:12:10.000 He's tailoring.
00:12:11.000 His advice.
00:12:12.000 Based upon these two individuals.
00:12:14.000 And he's giving them something.
00:12:15.000 Which is practical.
00:12:16.000 He's not overburdening them.
00:12:18.000 Yes.
00:12:19.000 And he's not giving them something.
00:12:20.000 That's too.
00:12:21.000 Too far ahead.
00:12:22.000 Or this.
00:12:23.000 Work towards it.
00:12:24.000 He's saying.
00:12:25.000 Do this now.
00:12:26.000 Small things.
00:12:27.000 Exactly.
00:12:28.000 Small things.
00:12:29.000 And he's not.
00:12:30.000 Overburdening them.
00:12:31.000 I think it's a.
00:12:32.000 It's a very interesting way.
00:12:33.000 To kind of learn.
00:12:34.000 How to give dawah.
00:12:35.000 But that's important.
00:12:36.000 Because dawah.
00:12:37.000 It's.
00:12:38.000 Yes.
00:12:39.000 You have your general dawah.
00:12:40.000 But you need to sometimes.
00:12:41.000 Tailor it.
00:12:42.000 Sometimes when you speak to people.
00:12:43.000 Don't.
00:12:44.000 Don't give dawah.
00:12:45.000 To your judgment.
00:12:46.000 Of the atheists.
00:12:47.000 That you're speaking to.
00:12:48.000 Or atheists are.
00:12:49.000 Like the other atheists.
00:12:50.000 No.
00:12:51.000 That might be someone totally different.
00:12:52.000 Don't just apply.
00:12:53.000 Who you spoke to last week.
00:12:54.000 A evil atheist.
00:12:55.000 Or whatever.
00:12:56.000 And apply it to.
00:12:57.000 He's not the same atheist.
00:12:58.000 He's different.
00:12:59.000 Tailor it.
00:13:00.000 Knowledge.
00:13:01.000 Is knowing it's sunnah to smile.
00:13:03.000 Hmm.
00:13:04.000 Knowledge is.
00:13:05.000 Knowing it's sunnah to smile.
00:13:06.000 Wisdom.
00:13:07.000 Is.
00:13:08.000 Not smiling at a funeral.
00:13:09.000 Yeah.
00:13:10.000 Exactly.
00:13:11.000 See that's.
00:13:12.000 That's fundamental here.
00:13:13.000 People have knowledge.
00:13:14.000 But they do not know how to apply that knowledge.
00:13:16.000 Hmm.
00:13:17.000 That's amazing.
00:13:18.000 I'm still taking in everything you're saying right now.
00:13:21.000 And I'm just.
00:13:22.000 I hope someone has screen recorded this.
00:13:23.000 So I can know.
00:13:24.000 And look back at the words that you're telling us.
00:13:25.000 Because it's really helping us.
00:13:26.000 A lot.
00:13:27.000 A lot.
00:13:28.000 Always know what to say.
00:13:29.000 Always know what to say.
00:13:30.000 MashaAllah.
00:13:31.000 We love her.
00:13:32.000 May Allah bless you.
00:13:33.000 I mean.
00:13:34.000 Look.
00:13:35.000 I want to tell you.
00:13:36.000 I really.
00:13:37.000 From the bottom of my heart.
00:13:38.000 I.
00:13:39.000 You know.
00:13:40.000 Everyone.
00:13:41.000 To be honest with you.
00:13:42.000 Those who like you.
00:13:43.000 Those who don't like you.
00:13:44.000 It's fine.
00:13:45.000 You know.
00:13:46.000 You just know that you're in love with Allah.
00:13:47.000 That's it.
00:13:48.000 So if these are the creatures of Allah.
00:13:49.000 Let me speak to them with respect.
00:13:50.000 Even if they don't have respect within their own nature.
00:13:53.000 See both of you.
00:13:54.000 Let me take a screenshot.
00:13:55.000 Let me take a screenshot.
00:13:56.000 Ready?
00:13:57.000 Let's pose.
00:13:58.000 Let's pose.
00:13:59.000 Got it.
00:14:00.000 My brother.
00:14:01.000 Mufti.
00:14:02.000 I appreciate it so much.
00:14:03.000 Yo.
00:14:04.000 InshaAllah.
00:14:05.000 We're gonna meet you in person.
00:14:06.000 InshaAllah.
00:14:07.000 I appreciate it so much.
00:14:09.000 InshaAllah.
00:14:10.000 We get to meet you in person.
00:14:11.000 InshaAllah.
00:14:12.000 Like.
00:14:13.000 No that's good.
00:14:14.000 But.
00:14:15.000 But you guys.
00:14:16.000 May Allah bless you guys.
00:14:17.000 And grant you goodness.
00:14:18.000 I want.
00:14:19.000 I like this bit now.
00:14:20.000 So this bit is where.
00:14:21.000 He gives.
00:14:22.000 He gives that.
00:14:23.000 That.
00:14:24.000 Like he's.
00:14:25.000 He's given that.
00:14:26.000 He'll listen to himself.
00:14:27.000 But Alhamdulillah.
00:14:28.000 It was.
00:14:29.000 It was good.
00:14:30.000 I want to just end off by saying one.
00:14:31.000 One.
00:14:32.000 You know.
00:14:33.000 One thing.
00:14:34.000 If you don't mind.
00:14:35.000 No.
00:14:36.000 Take your side.
00:14:37.000 You know.
00:14:38.000 It's a responsibility.
00:14:39.000 That's placed on our shoulders by Allah.
00:14:41.000 Think about it.
00:14:42.000 Because.
00:14:43.000 You know.
00:14:44.000 Ultimately.
00:14:45.000 I'm gonna die.
00:14:46.000 You guys are gonna die.
00:14:47.000 We're all gonna die.
00:14:48.000 In a very short period of time.
00:14:49.000 When we go.
00:14:50.000 We're going back to Allah.
00:14:51.000 And.
00:14:52.000 Whoever sets a good example.
00:14:53.000 Will actually.
00:14:54.000 See the reward.
00:14:55.000 At that juncture.
00:14:56.000 And whoever didn't.
00:14:57.000 Will just regret.
00:14:58.000 So whenever we have a following.
00:14:59.000 It's actually.
00:15:00.000 Allah's love.
00:15:01.000 And he wants.
00:15:02.000 To test us.
00:15:03.000 To say.
00:15:04.000 What are you gonna do.
00:15:05.000 With this following.
00:15:06.000 At least.
00:15:07.000 We try to be responsible.
00:15:08.000 In the way.
00:15:09.000 We say things.
00:15:10.000 And do things.
00:15:11.000 Encourage the younger generation.
00:15:12.000 You know.
00:15:13.000 What's happening.
00:15:14.000 With the young lot.
00:15:15.000 It's so scary.
00:15:16.000 Because so many people.
00:15:17.000 Out there.
00:15:18.000 Are leading them.
00:15:19.000 Far away.
00:15:20.000 Without you.
00:15:21.000 To keep them.
00:15:22.000 Within the.
00:15:23.000 Within the waters.
00:15:24.000 Of seats.
00:15:25.000 Inshallah.
00:15:26.000 I mean.
00:15:27.000 That was.
00:15:28.000 That was amazing.
00:15:29.000 I really hope so.
00:15:30.000 I'm gonna save this live.
00:15:31.000 I'm gonna.
00:15:32.000 Re-watch the whole thing.
00:15:33.000 Cause.
00:15:34.000 I'm literally dreaming right now.
00:15:35.000 Having this live with you.
00:15:36.000 I didn't know you were gonna.
00:15:37.000 Accept my live.
00:15:38.000 So I appreciate it.
00:15:39.000 Asalaamu Alaikum.
00:15:40.000 Thank you so much.
00:15:41.000 And.
00:15:42.000 I'm gonna take what you said.
00:15:43.000 What you are.
00:15:44.000 The previous day.
00:15:45.000 I need to talk to you guys.
00:15:46.000 We meet in person.
00:15:47.000 We meet in person.
00:15:48.000 Okay guys.
00:15:49.000 Inshallah.
00:15:50.000 Inshallah.
00:15:51.000 Definitely.
00:15:52.000 Mufti made.
00:15:53.000 Mufti made for president.
00:15:54.000 Mufti made for president.
00:15:55.000 Mufti made for president.
00:15:56.000 Mufti made for president.
00:15:57.000 I mean.
00:15:58.000 I mean.
00:15:59.000 Would it be better.
00:16:02.000 What do you think?
00:16:03.000 I think.
00:16:04.000 I think it was needed.
00:16:05.000 I was happy.
00:16:06.000 I was happy.
00:16:07.000 Cause at the end they.
00:16:08.000 You know.
00:16:09.000 Maybe.
00:16:10.000 The thing is.
00:16:11.000 If they can take from Mufti.
00:16:12.000 That's a good thing bro.
00:16:13.000 Do you get it?
00:16:14.000 Cause sometimes like.
00:16:15.000 Maybe our one.
00:16:16.000 Maybe our approach was wrong.
00:16:17.000 Maybe.
00:16:18.000 I don't know.
00:16:19.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:16:20.000 Even though we tried to work.
00:16:21.000 We never insulted the brothers.
00:16:22.000 The thing is bro.
00:16:23.000 What.
00:16:24.000 What doesn't really get understood.
00:16:25.000 Is.
00:16:26.000 Understanding the.
00:16:27.000 Variety.
00:16:28.000 And the different types of people within the Ummah.
00:16:30.000 Yeah.
00:16:31.000 We're now on social media.
00:16:32.000 Where we've got people of different countries.
00:16:34.000 Yeah.
00:16:35.000 And in different countries.
00:16:36.000 You have different upbringings.
00:16:37.000 You have.
00:16:38.000 Yeah.
00:16:39.000 Different customs.
00:16:40.000 Different.
00:16:41.000 Different intensities of the religion.
00:16:43.000 Being implemented.
00:16:44.000 Different trials.
00:16:45.000 And online.
00:16:47.000 Sometimes we don't get to see that.
00:16:48.000 Because all usernames seem the same.
00:16:50.000 All comments are treated the same.
00:16:52.000 But you have to understand that everyone's going through.
00:16:55.000 Like somebody living in America.
00:16:57.000 Is not going through the same trials living in India.
00:16:59.000 And that scholarship.
00:17:00.000 You can't get scholarship.
00:17:02.000 Kind of.
00:17:03.000 Conflicting.
00:17:04.000 Because the person living in America.
00:17:06.000 The scholar living in America.
00:17:08.000 Knows what's going on in America more.
00:17:09.000 That's why.
00:17:10.000 The ulema say that.
00:17:11.000 He's in a better position.
00:17:12.000 To give a fatawa about what's going on.
00:17:14.000 Exactly.
00:17:15.000 I don't know if it was Imam Malik.
00:17:16.000 Some people came to him.
00:17:17.000 And they were asking for fatawa.
00:17:18.000 And he said.
00:17:19.000 Go to your land.
00:17:20.000 And ask the people in your land.
00:17:21.000 The scholars in your land.
00:17:22.000 Because they know your affairs the best.
00:17:23.000 You know.
00:17:24.000 And that's how it is.
00:17:25.000 And it comes back to wisdom.
00:17:26.000 Because he could have said something.
00:17:27.000 That could go against the customs.
00:17:28.000 Of that time.
00:17:29.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:17:30.000 So that's why.
00:17:31.000 It's.
00:17:32.000 It's very important.
00:17:33.000 Inshallah.
00:17:34.000 To bear that in my brothers and sisters.
00:17:35.000 Different cultures.
00:17:36.000 You know Muslims are around the world.
00:17:38.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:17:39.000 What you may deem as something that's.
00:17:41.000 You know.
00:17:42.000 Like putting your feet on the table.
00:17:44.000 To someone that can be like.
00:17:45.000 Oh it's just normal.
00:17:46.000 In other countries.
00:17:47.000 That's just every disrespect.
00:17:48.000 Yeah it's not acceptable.
00:17:49.000 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:17:50.000 Bro it's not even that.
00:17:51.000 It's.
00:17:52.000 I mean think about it.
00:17:53.000 When somebody is.
00:17:54.000 From a small age.
00:17:55.000 When they're learning.
00:17:56.000 Yeah.
00:17:57.000 Their first impression of learning.
00:17:58.000 And ilim.
00:17:59.000 Is what?
00:18:00.000 It's the parents isn't it?
00:18:01.000 Yes.
00:18:02.000 You learn from your parents.
00:18:03.000 And naturally parents are going to work.
00:18:05.000 They're a big family.
00:18:06.000 So they're harsh.
00:18:07.000 There's punishments.
00:18:08.000 And the first impression of the religion is what?
00:18:11.000 Oh Allah is watching.
00:18:12.000 Oh don't do this.
00:18:13.000 That's haram.
00:18:14.000 Oh don't do this.
00:18:15.000 So from the small age.
00:18:16.000 Yeah.
00:18:17.000 That's the kind of impression we have of the religion.
00:18:19.000 We go to religious institutions.
00:18:21.000 And over there.
00:18:22.000 Obviously time is short.
00:18:24.000 And there's a big pressure.
00:18:25.000 So it's.
00:18:26.000 Or you have to do your lesson.
00:18:27.000 Otherwise there's detention.
00:18:28.000 There's this.
00:18:29.000 There's that.
00:18:30.000 So scholarship is always seen as harsh.
00:18:32.000 Yes.
00:18:33.000 And that's the impression people now have of scholarship.
00:18:36.000 Yeah.
00:18:37.000 But the fact of the matter is.
00:18:39.000 That.
00:18:40.000 That's.
00:18:41.000 That doesn't work with everyone though.
00:18:42.000 And even.
00:18:43.000 I think some scholars say as well that.
00:18:45.000 You know.
00:18:46.000 Even when they try to kind of crack jokes.
00:18:47.000 People.
00:18:48.000 Thinking.
00:18:49.000 Oh why is it.
00:18:50.000 Why.
00:18:51.000 Why is he cracking jokes?
00:18:52.000 Like that's.
00:18:53.000 That's not the right way.
00:18:54.000 Yeah.
00:18:55.000 Talking to how you have understood the religion.
00:18:57.000 Yeah.
00:18:58.000 Especially people from the subcontinent.
00:18:59.000 Yeah.
00:19:00.000 Where scholars are very kind of.
00:19:01.000 Stern.
00:19:02.000 And harsh.
00:19:03.000 And.
00:19:04.000 They have a certain kind of.
00:19:05.000 Default position.
00:19:06.000 Here.
00:19:07.000 Our lifestyle is different.
00:19:08.000 Yeah.
00:19:09.000 Our youth have been brought up in a different way.
00:19:11.000 Yeah.
00:19:12.000 And this form of dawah.
00:19:13.000 I think it's important.
00:19:14.000 It's key.
00:19:15.000 You cannot just have.
00:19:16.000 And promote.
00:19:17.000 And the thing is.
00:19:18.000 People might be saying.
00:19:19.000 Oh this is not the way.
00:19:20.000 95% of the scholars.
00:19:22.000 Are.
00:19:23.000 Let's just say.
00:19:24.000 Um.
00:19:25.000 Giving lectures.
00:19:26.000 And doing this.
00:19:27.000 And doing that.
00:19:28.000 Okay.
00:19:29.000 That's being done.
00:19:30.000 Yes.
00:19:31.000 What about for the people that can't relate to that?
00:19:32.000 Exactly.
00:19:33.000 Shouldn't you be giving them an alternative?
00:19:34.000 Exactly.
00:19:35.000 That's why we're happy that someone like Mufti Meng is out there.
00:19:37.000 Yeah.
00:19:38.000 Because he does genuinely.
00:19:39.000 Non-Muslims.
00:19:40.000 Even talk about him.
00:19:41.000 So it's amazing.
00:19:42.000 Alhamdulillah.
00:19:43.000 We need people on both sides bro.
00:19:44.000 Yes of course.
00:19:45.000 We need people like Mufti Meng.
00:19:46.000 We need people on the other side as well.
00:19:47.000 Of course.
00:19:48.000 You know what I'm saying.
00:19:49.000 They balance.
00:19:50.000 They balance.
00:19:51.000 They need it.
00:19:52.000 But sometimes I believe we have too much of the.
00:19:53.000 Harshness.
00:19:54.000 You know.
00:19:55.000 And.
00:19:56.000 You don't get many figures like Mufti Meng.
00:19:57.000 Who people can relate to.
00:19:58.000 His soft.
00:19:59.000 His smile.
00:20:00.000 His gentle approach.
00:20:01.000 Etc.
00:20:02.000 Is also needed.
00:20:03.000 And yeah.
00:20:04.000 I was happy.
00:20:05.000 Like I said before.
00:20:06.000 I used to respect Mufti Meng here.
00:20:07.000 My respect has gone up for him.
00:20:08.000 Because at the end of the day.
00:20:09.000 Brogan Sisters.
00:20:10.000 People need a chance.
00:20:11.000 And.
00:20:12.000 It was good.
00:20:13.000 He gave them an opportunity.
00:20:14.000 Maybe they will listen bro.
00:20:15.000 Maybe all the stuff that we've done.
00:20:16.000 It just required Mufti Meng to have this little chat for 10 minutes.
00:20:18.000 And it's done the job.
00:20:19.000 So may Allah bless.
00:20:20.000 All of them inshallah.
00:20:21.000 Brother Adam Saleh.
00:20:22.000 Brother.

00:20:25.000 Salaam Shady.
00:20:26.000 And.
00:20:27.000 When we mean this.
00:20:28.000 I would love by the way.
00:20:29.000 We're not mocking the brother.
00:20:30.000 May Allah bless him inshallah.
00:20:31.000 Just saying.
00:20:32.000 Brother Mufti Meng.
00:20:33.000 And.
