And pray, even though you've all been told not to, right?
00:00:28.040
Yeah, well, the Christians have been doing their nice singing songs all day.
00:00:34.880
Yeah, but you need, that's where you're going wrong.
00:00:38.280
But what's our praying got to do with this issue?
00:00:40.740
Because if you come in next week and you start doing all that when you know you're not meant
00:00:45.100
to be doing it, you're pissing off the wider community.
00:01:00.460
But why are they getting pissed off because they're praying?
00:01:02.020
To be provocative, just like stupid-based Amid goes and does silly things.
00:01:09.280
All this tit for tat, all this tit for tat, right?
00:01:12.000
You have to take responsibility for the stupid people that you've got.
00:01:15.160
Madam, you're blaming us for praying peacefully in a corner.
00:01:18.480
It ain't peacefully when it's Alu Akbar, Alu Akbar.
00:01:24.960
But what's me peacefully praying got to do with provoking the white community?
00:01:29.220
And to be honest, right, if I'm truthful, to white people, it's offensive seeing men
00:01:54.620
Is it the prayer, or is it that you just don't like us?
00:02:01.460
Then why does our prayer above you in the corner?
00:02:14.620
Right, so are you telling me that if you started praying down here regular,
00:02:19.060
and then one Sunday, a group of white mums who don't know nothing about what's going on,
00:02:27.480
comes down here and goes over to that particular spot that you normally pray at,
00:02:32.040
that she wouldn't get intimidation, and people wouldn't be saying,
00:02:35.020
Oh, you's a lot of commitment, you normally pray at.
00:02:37.320
You can't, you can't, you can't, you can't, you cannot.
00:02:39.940
The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said to us,
00:02:41.980
you cannot, when praying, you cannot obstruct ways.
00:02:43.880
If that woman comes here, nobody can dare to come and tell her to move.
00:02:47.220
So then why are they starting to pray in the street?
00:02:52.920
No, but madam, madam, madam, if I don't like...
00:02:57.300
Madam, madam, madam, if I don't like someone, I will look for any excuse to attack them.
00:03:06.080
If you stop, if some of these small issues were to stop, the tensions would stop.
00:03:15.360
The issue is the manner of where you're praying.
00:03:21.640
But then why do we bother giving you all mosques?
00:03:24.620
If you want to pray all over the street, why do we bother saying...
00:03:27.440
Yeah, you can have your own religion in our country and build as many mosques as you like.
00:03:36.140
If you say, you know what, I'm trying to get out my parking.
00:03:42.280
But the issue is, you know, us praying in that corner doesn't bother anyone.
00:03:46.440
And you know, there's certain places in London, right, where whole car parks are being filled up.
00:04:01.560
People, you know how many homeless there are in this country?
00:04:04.660
Do you know how many kids are going to school without food?
00:04:06.920
I find it pathetic that our country, homeless people, kids going to school with no food,
00:04:12.080
and I'm here talking about the burqa and people are praying.
00:04:26.700
It would be pathetic if they weren't killing each other.
00:04:49.420
They said to us, do not talk about the bankers.
00:04:58.080
That's why he makes 80 grand, 100 grand a year with eight properties.
00:05:03.520
Did Tommy defend my right of freedom of speech?
00:05:11.660
He couldn't because you would have been unsafe.
