00:00:00.000
okay wow no no no you're bringing a whole new conversation into it so it's our fault and we
00:00:07.880
are we have no choice in the matter of oh we have to protect ourselves because men can't control
00:00:14.740
themselves i never said that i never said that i never said that
00:00:18.660
as your porn and sex addiction affected your studies work marriage and family relationship
00:00:25.940
are you stuck with feelings of guilt shame remorse and despair or has your addiction progressed from
00:00:31.260
pornography to zina well we're here to tell you you're not alone itaskia is the place where muslim
00:00:36.920
males and females struggling with pornography addictions can find recovery and freedom
00:00:41.800
that relation with your lord is fundamental for you to survive this world no the faith the faith
00:00:45.880
gives you hope gives you um purpose yes it is it is very much but not fake i'm not saying to any
00:00:52.960
because anyone can have that with any religion they can say oh yeah i know but i'm just saying
00:00:55.740
just faith leads to hope hope leads to purpose purpose gives you life and and and you have you
00:01:04.100
have some kind of certainty because the fact that you say i have these different religions and i
00:01:07.660
follow what like i'll take a bit that is that is your kind of certainty though if you think about it
00:01:12.740
you've got a bit of that you know i live by this rule yeah so you've given yourself a certainty but
00:01:16.820
what we say is maybe it's not the true certainty yeah because what we're saying is there should be one
00:01:21.480
way of life there's one truth you can't have two truths there's only one god there can't be two
00:01:25.880
gods if there's two gods who created that god there has to be one way of life there has to be one
00:01:29.540
truth because if we come and say oh i take a bit of this and a bit of that etc it's genuinely
00:01:34.920
firstly it doesn't make sense so i know this is like a completely like far off farfetched question
00:01:41.000
right for argument's sake let's say the entire world is muslim yes do you think that there would
00:01:46.760
still be the problems that we have now there will be problems but not the problems that we have
00:01:51.480
now okay so there will still be problems so like what sort of issues would would be posed if everyone
00:01:57.040
had the same religion and the same thoughts and the same way of thinking we can't because that's
00:02:01.140
what allah says in the quran we created you with by like tribes and nations yeah but you might get
00:02:05.160
to know one another not that you despise one another yeah the point is this allah has created us
00:02:08.460
with a aql to have decision free will yeah so we have that that's the reason why we have a variety
00:02:13.660
but the thing is there are also consequences of the decisions that we make so we can't just say
00:02:18.760
okay i'm just going to believe this if what we believe is false there's going to be consequences
00:02:23.300
because god almighty has created us and he wants the best for us yeah he wants you to have the
00:02:27.800
best of this life and the hereafter he wants you to have to have a relationship with him and be
00:02:31.200
grateful to him yeah he's not asking for much i'll be honest with you so the point is this and he's
00:02:35.440
telling you to live except all the other things that he also asks none about but he has a right to ask
00:02:40.580
for them because the thing is anything he asks for is not it's not bad for me it's good for me
00:02:44.800
like mention something that's bad like you in islam like you say you know what i don't know i don't
00:02:49.180
like this okay okay why why why do i have to cover okay firstly because number one firstly because god
00:02:57.920
said so why do i have okay no but like so why why is it that if i am not covered for example um i i i
00:03:07.220
truly believe also that in islam like if you are a true believer of islam you also believe that for
00:03:12.480
example let's say i am a practicing muslim and i'm not with hijab that i can still go to heaven
00:03:17.340
100 if you don't wear what a hijab yeah no one said no one no one said you go hell if you don't
00:03:21.540
wear it by the way i know i know yeah that's what i'm saying yeah that's why i say that wearing a
00:03:25.640
hijab is a choice right no it's not a choice let me tell you something okay and you're gonna like this
00:03:30.000
so you're telling me it's not a choice don't do it then i and i am a practicing muslim i won't go
00:03:35.400
to hell but it's not a choice you will go where i'll go to hell no you said that so but no no is there
00:03:41.060
any prescribed punishment for a woman that doesn't wear hijab no but then why is it why is it forced
00:03:46.160
upon me if it's not something that will lead me for example so yeah so why is it something that is not
00:03:54.080
a choice so you don't have a choice you have to cover but if you don't cover and you are practicing
00:03:58.860
good muslim that does not mean you'll go to hell but you have to cover why okay good question have
00:04:04.800
you read a book called beauty sick no okay i want you to buy this book if it's possible beauty sick
00:04:10.120
beauty sick yeah it's why i'm non-muslim okay it's a very good book
00:04:14.360
yeah now this book is very interesting because we have this false notion that when a woman takes
00:04:23.740
her hijab off she chose to take it off i believe this is the biggest false fallacy ever okay you know
00:04:30.080
why because i'm asking you a question did you choose to take your hijab off i never had a hijab
00:04:36.360
okay you never wore it okay are you telling me that as a woman you choose not to wear the hijab yes i
00:04:45.640
i say no and i'll prove it let me tell you how are you telling me that the beauty industry
00:04:50.660
the females around you the society that you live in have no effect on you and the way you are
00:04:56.540
perceived and that has no element on you that you may feel because the book that i refer to you called
00:05:02.480
beauty sick tells you about women who are beauty sick their sickness is beauty which is what when
00:05:09.900
someone comes to me and says i choose to wear the hijab i'm like please don't lie you wear the hijab
00:05:13.940
because allah told you to and now somebody comes and says well that's islam is oppressive and i say
00:05:17.900
well no hold on a second because the very woman who wear mini skirts who go get their excuse me
00:05:23.360
their breasts done their backside done their hips done their nose done can you imagine they smash
00:05:28.300
their nose you know you know they get smashed and then reshaped this is very important the point is
00:05:33.320
this they are you telling me these people go and say i choose to no you don't choose to you do it
00:05:39.900
because the beauty industry the standards that the the society have put a bar on you are trying
00:05:45.300
to reach those at the cost that you can even lose your life there was a mexican brazilian woman who
00:05:49.960
died because she got implants on her backside she died so this is but then then your argument is
00:05:56.480
actually null and void because the same way that a woman will choose or has no choice to wear a hijab
00:06:01.940
but also does this these things to herself and it's like oh that's not her choice yes then where
00:06:08.860
where do you meet in the middle where is the choice this is where you meet in the middle the point is
00:06:12.820
this nobody has a choice listen carefully but then why do you have free will if you don't have a
00:06:18.620
choice what's the fucking point if god i'm sorry excuse me for swearing so why is has god okay so
00:06:25.320
your your argument here is telling me that god gives you free will and allows you to have free
00:06:32.840
will but you do not have a choice okay in any matter no listen to me carefully you have free will
00:06:38.160
you have a choice in what sense which one to follow so that so you're given free will just
00:06:45.760
to choose god no no no listen let me let me explain let me explain let me explain it for example
00:06:52.100
both of them don't have no choice the one who goes and gets a nose down and has makeup and can't leave
00:06:56.820
the house without makeup being in front of the window for two hours etc okay and the woman who wears the
00:07:02.160
hijab they are both told to do so one is told to do so by the one you created the thank you now now
00:07:09.760
one second this is where it's crucial okay which one is deserving of being listened to the one
00:07:14.060
who created you or society i mean if you believe not believe if arguments say if god exists okay and
00:07:22.120
he's telling you and by the way we as men need to cover up as well i mean yeah but that's that's a
00:07:26.080
theoretical question that you're asking me because how like but i'll ask you theoretically but if i ask
00:07:31.200
you theoretically yeah so if if someone was who is more deserving of being obedient to i mean if if that
00:07:36.780
is your argument then of course it's your creator okay good obedience okay good so what we learn here
00:07:42.500
sister today both individuals have no choice they are both told to do something okay one is from the
00:07:49.200
creator yeah one is from the creation okay this is where i accepted islam because i said hold on a
00:07:54.800
second and i'll give you this personal story i used to have a jumper like this it was a black one i thought
00:08:00.160
i looked really handsome in it no i genuinely thought look you know i look very good in this
00:08:03.360
jumper i mean i mean i think i look very good maybe some people might differ and i used to hate
00:08:08.440
the jumper it used to make me itch when i used to be in the club i used to itch but i just hated it
00:08:12.600
but i was like no i look good yeah i said to myself you know what i'm the biggest slave this is my master
00:08:17.120
this jumper is my master it's like girls who walk into clubs with this much heels and they have to
00:08:22.840
take you off in winter and it's freezing cold have you ever stood on pavement but when i look at them i feel
00:08:27.740
the pain i feel the pain and the thing is i'm like that is your slave and just as me when i was getting
00:08:33.400
a jumper or driving a certain car or going to the gym i'm not saying you can go to the gym
00:08:37.440
so you're basically saying you'd rather be a slave to the one who created me bigger than me
00:08:41.520
exactly you know why you know why sister because the creation is never going to be happy with me
00:08:45.940
when i die they're going to backbite me they're going to talk bad of me the creator is the one that's
00:08:49.660
going to be be with me he's the one who created me he deserves my worship why would i go and try to
00:08:55.000
please a group of people but i'm never going to be happy with me and the one who created me
00:08:58.940
deserves it and guess what once i became a slave to him is when i found my true freedom once i became
00:09:04.520
a slave to him very good uh points honestly sister you the point i'm trying to say here is this yeah
00:09:09.580
thank you may Allah bless you thank you i appreciate it logical and this is the key sister you know why
00:09:14.940
because at this moment that is when it clicked me and i said wow all this life my masters were females
00:09:20.660
my masters was a jumper that i used to wear my masters was money i used to live a lifestyle and
00:09:25.560
do extra hours so i can drive a certain car i used to go to the gym yes obviously for health reasons
00:09:30.180
but i wanted to have big biceps so when i walk and wear that jumper the girls can be like wow look at
00:09:34.380
his biceps i used to live these was my these were my masters these were my gods you know what i said
00:09:39.140
when i said la ilaha illallah i said i am free from all of you because i want to worship the one who has
00:09:44.960
created me and this is where we say sister when we talked about choice the one that takes a hijab
00:09:51.520
off we have a lot of hijab influences we take the hijab off and they go um i chose to no you didn't
00:09:56.360
you're getting older and you look you feel like you're getting wrinkly and ugly and you're showing
00:10:00.620
the hair is beauty and that is the reason why you don't say i chose to say i was forced to but then
00:10:07.340
there's like so in terms of like the the not having a choice there for something like that
00:10:14.540
um like for example it then comes down to equality again which literally just circles us all the way
00:10:21.400
back yes yes no no can we have your voice yeah you know when you're talking about choice
00:10:29.320
you know you don't have a choice whether to wear clothes or not do you in a society
00:10:34.160
yeah you don't no so there's a certain level of dressing decorum regardless of however liberal
00:10:41.460
you are you cannot come naked you have to wear this is imposed upon you right yeah similarly
00:10:49.360
you should not equate someone putting on clothes to someone who's a society telling you to put on
00:11:00.720
clothes to a society telling you to take it off these are this is a false equivalent but did you
00:11:07.020
know i understand so you know you know why it relates to you perfectly because sometimes we go
00:11:12.060
into this mentality where we think the life i'm living i'm free you're not you're influenced one way or
00:11:18.220
another because why as a woman for example the question is and this is what's so beautiful about
00:11:22.600
islam let me tell you something before i used to see woman as a piece of meat well i had no respect
00:11:27.940
for them you know why because the society made me like this and when i came to islam woman they
00:11:33.640
became human in my eyes because islam told me that you honor them you respect them it's not what is
00:11:39.420
she you know you're talking to her you're not talking to somewhere else and this is the issue
00:11:43.880
sister there's there's men here like there's men everywhere the point is this and i'm not saying
00:11:47.880
women are perfect there are you know a lot of you know women as well let's be honest here the point
00:11:53.060
is this that women are sexualized man i'm walking down i'm driving down the a406 okay okay wow no no
00:11:59.820
no you're in trouble all new conversation into it so it's our fault and we are we have no choice in
00:12:07.960
the matter of oh we have to protect ourselves because men can't control themselves i never said that
00:12:14.180
oh my god and women are sexualized i never said that i never said that did i say that no you said
00:12:18.640
women are sexualized no why are we sexualized because the brain of men can't separate it from
00:12:24.800
it like what does what does allah say in the quran you know allah says in the quran i don't know you
00:12:28.080
tell me okay sister i'm not the expert i'm a nobody you're i think you know you're the expert
00:12:31.860
not me no no we're both the expert tell me why sister allah says in the quran tell the believing
00:12:35.960
men to lower their gaze yeah they should one second allah doesn't say women cover up because
00:12:40.660
men can't control their self no but why but then but then why so if men shouldn't be gazing and
00:12:46.280
sexualizing and making all of this yes then why do i yes and and you're have no choice but to also
00:12:54.060
cover up no protect myself no no no no no no for what listen to me allah says to me tell the
00:12:59.420
believing men to lower the gaze okay that means if she's in a bikini if she's in a niqab if she's
00:13:04.900
in a jilbab irrelevant i have to lower my gaze i'm not going to say oh she's wearing a bikini man
00:13:08.860
can look at her now or she's wearing niqab i have to lower my gaze period okay now but then why
00:13:15.240
no no you know what that means that means this notion that men can't control their self that's
00:13:21.000
why allah tells you to cover up is not true because allah tells who the believing men first
00:13:24.600
tell the believing men to lower their gaze okay now allah allah does allah works in a
00:13:29.080
micro level you know what that means you're training your young boys to respect women by
00:13:32.980
lowering the gaze yes now how does allah deal with it in a macro level by saying do not sexually
00:13:38.800
objectify women now if i am looking all around me and i see bikini woman in there that's talking
00:13:44.540
about chocolate and i'm thinking what's chocolate got to do with a bikini yeah and then i'm seeing a
00:13:48.700
woman over there argument say dress up in this way and that way the society is sexually objectifying
00:13:54.720
woman look i was watching a documentary yesterday yeah it was talking about in the 1970s times square
00:14:00.180
in new york was a oh it's disgusting there was a man who killed 80 prostitutes and these women
00:14:09.020
were they were not human there was a study that was done that looked into a man's brain they showed
00:14:14.780
him big woman in bikini the part of the brain that lights up for tool use you know tool use screwdriver
00:14:20.200
lit up you know what that means he didn't even see him as human the part of the brain was like this
00:14:25.080
is this is an object how does a human being and a lot of serial killers you know how they said
00:14:29.720
something in common they all used to watch pornography the point is this men are created visually if you
00:14:35.960
sexually objectify woman to such a level men lose respect this doesn't mean that a person has a right
00:14:43.820
to go and abuse or rape or whatever just because a woman is dressed up in a certain way there are women
00:14:49.060
who are dressed up in hijab and niqab that get raped the point is this sister everyone has a role to
00:14:54.460
play my role is i lower my gaze but i would not also like you to this woman to be in my face or
00:15:00.040
dressed up in a certain way where i'm like well i would i would not like to see that the point is
00:15:03.740
this islam deals it given the responsibility to both it doesn't say hey you women men are animals
00:15:09.540
you are to blame it's your fault you cover up someone doesn't say that but the same way that women
00:15:13.520
are sexualized men can be sexualized as well so then why are men when you can sexualize i'm sorry
00:15:18.540
let me tell you let me tell you let me tell you why sister yeah do has i've never seen a woman ever
00:15:24.800
go and say you know what let me go and there's a picture of a man's calves let me go and stare at
00:15:29.300
it that's not her nature in her nature men go and stare at women's calves
00:15:34.380
bruh okay i don't know what sister cubs sister sister sister sister i know man's mandem that lose
00:15:44.020
their mind they lose their mind when they when they see a toe okay when they see an ankle he starts
00:15:51.540
his temperature starts rising his blood pressure going somewhere else the way we're created sister
00:15:55.820
we are visual so what i'm trying to say sister is that allah is telling you this is the best way to
00:16:00.980
live your life and i'm telling you sister look here there's a lot of things i had to give up
00:16:04.260
when i came to islam a lot of things i did not want to let go of but let me tell you something
00:16:08.740
letting go of them it made me who i am today islam is the solution there is no other religion i'm
00:16:15.980
telling you it might sound yeah okay here we go my religion is i'm telling you we can prove it i'm not
00:16:21.060
here to talk i can prove it islam gives me purpose i know my purpose i know why i'm here i know where i'm
00:16:25.800
going i know what to live by but the point is this islam is the best solution and guess what you are
00:16:31.200
going to live by a way of life anyways and you already are live by the one that god sent you
00:16:38.000
you make very good points you make very good points very nice conversation me too sister alia
00:16:45.640
oh my gosh i think it's been an hour probably i think so too thank you sister alia look thank you
00:16:51.120
we don't shake hands we don't yes but you know why but you know why because because out of respect
00:16:56.340
but the thing is you see that i see that's a little bit disrespectful good but we need to end it with
00:17:01.220
this you know why because there was i think you know the me too movement remember the me too movement
00:17:05.840
of course i know the me too you know now in workplaces you know back in the day not back in the day a
00:17:10.260
couple of years ago in the workplace they could touch a woman like you know they can't do that
00:17:13.620
anymore yeah you know in the workplace they have to leave the door open now yeah you see islam
00:17:17.700
has come and told you look prevention is better than cure islam has one solution it doesn't say
00:17:22.080
drink alcohol then we'll take you to rehab islam says don't drink alcohol the point is this sister
00:17:28.440
me and you like for example a handshake is nothing like we can say okay what's the big deal
00:17:33.960
but it's interesting that you see as a sign of respect but to me i'm i feel like i'm honoring you
00:17:40.380
so much that i don't even want to shake your hand not because there's anything wrong with you
00:17:43.780
because you know why because that's the level of respect i have for you but society's made it seem
00:17:48.160
as if you know what look how disrespectful he is no i don't think you're disrespectful it's your
00:17:51.900
prerogative to not want to shake my hand no no i do because i honor and respect you well thank you
00:17:56.460
that's why i do it may allah bless you you are a lovely person and it was it was lovely talking to
00:18:01.780

00:18:05.980
