00:04:32.000But that's you see that parade they had like several I was a couple of weeks ago or so now, like the parade they had for all the people that were injured.
00:06:04.000There's this more of like you have to do all of these things, fulfill the the tenets of Islam or pillars of Islam, and then go basically and hope that God will forgive you.
00:06:12.000That's one reason that that's yeah from Christianity.
00:07:52.000This was just this really is just like a sad tale of rejection by different people groups, and then he finally goes, you know what, the the hell with it.
00:10:03.000They sent me on a quest, searching Islam's stories of love for answers to questions we all ask, which unravel the secrets of the Taj Mahal, illuminated a little known story about Malcolm X, and demonstrated how love can change the world.
00:11:22.000According to the Harvard Divinity School, she will also continue to develop her ministry, which is informed by Islamic principles and grounded in love.
00:11:34.000Um she wrote some pretty insightful essays on her medium account, which include four anti-racism strategies for white passing Latinx immigrants.
00:11:53.000Latin X was used because I didn't want to say Latino or Latina because it's gendered, and of course, it's less than I mean, it's very, very small single-digit percentage points of actual Hispanics who prefer the term Latinx.
00:13:48.000At best, a whitewashed version of Islam to try and bring people into a religion with no understanding of it, and they find out kind of the ugly truths after it's too late.
00:14:05.000You saw what happened in uh in places like Dearborn, in certain places, for example, in Minnesota.
00:14:10.000Anywhere you get a large contingency of of Muslims, um, it it doesn't go well as far as human rights.
00:14:18.000You you actually can't find one example historically where Muslims have become a majority of the population and have actually seized control of the laws and the um the institutions without gross violations, fundamental violations of basic human rights.
00:14:33.000And we're not talking about LGBTQ marriage.
00:15:02.000So it's going to paint a picture of Islam, and it's going to paint uh a picture of of l love in the Muslim, I have saying love because of going Muslim, love in the Muslim community, uh, that is not in any way accurate.
00:15:15.000Uh just to prepare you in case this does sort of uh get some traction, it's time for a claim truth.
00:15:25.000All right, so the first claim that you will see made is that um Islam, and sometimes I've even heard people say, like, it actually means peace.
00:15:35.000Islam in this claim is a religion of love.
00:15:54.000This is the kind of bond that lasts for eternity.
00:15:59.000Well, it certainly does if you're a woman and can't do anything about it.
00:16:02.000Yeah, I like how they keep turning the world upside down, because that's the only way, like if you just completely invert like the relationship of what love is, then it makes sense in their place.
00:16:18.000Um, and just even by the way, this is the only religion where if I if I state the truth, uh risk being blown up, like that should tell you too there's a big difference.
00:16:28.000There's a reason that you see Jesus Christ superstar with a demonic tranny and Adam Lambert, and you don't see any mocking of Islam because at the end of the day, Hollywood is a business, and a lot of these comedians are still in this business.
00:17:13.000And I know this because when I did the Quran, one of my first videos ever, and I think 2008, the Quran challenge, yeah, I talked about him taking a six-year-old uh bride, and the defense was yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but he only consummated when she was nine.
00:18:32.000As for your women, past the age of menstruation, in case you do not know their waiting period is three months, and those who have not menstruated as well, which seems far too broad.
00:18:43.000Yeah, the women you may the women you have sex with must have had a period, or they are maybe or just or they don't have it.
00:19:25.000Uh yeah, men, when we're talking about love, men can marry up to four women at once.
00:19:31.000Quran 4-3 states, if you fear you might fail to give orphan women their due rights if you were to marry them, then marry other women of your choice.
00:19:44.000Yeah, actually Mohammed had more than four.
00:19:46.000And uh it was quite a point of contention at the time, but uh he got a pass because he was the prophet of Allah.
00:19:54.000And uh and yeah, people it it it that did start a lot of the people doing the child bride thing because they're like, oh, we're we're following in the steps of Muhammad.
00:20:18.000So Muhammad both lived his life a certain way and gave prescriptions, and the faith gives the religion gives prescriptions.
00:20:25.000Jesus Christ was very clear about what you should do if you get married and have children and what a family looks like.
00:20:30.000So if you're to follow his example and his teachings, you won't run into these problems.
00:20:35.000This is also why we said 40 million child brides.
00:20:38.000Arranged marriages are uh a problem and well, you could just say common.
00:20:43.000Eighty-one percent of marriages are arranged in Pakistan.
00:20:46.000So I wonder what that has to do I wonder how that sort of computes with the lady making this documentary who uses the term Latinx.
00:20:56.000Um can we all agree it's very likely she's a feminist, very likely she's an intersectionalist.
00:21:01.000If you're using the term Latinx, I've never met someone who uses the term Latin X who isn't an asshole.
00:21:07.000And uh for someone like that, then well, what's your opinion on forty million child brides, and what's your opinion on eighty one percent of marriages being arranged in Pakistan?
00:21:13.000How does that line up with women's choice?
00:21:29.000And certainly, yeah, in those and I understand the argument being made that that parents who love their children in a loving family will probably pick a good mate for their child.
00:21:39.000There's it's not all wrong, um, especially back in the day when people were getting married younger, assuming both parties are younger, you know, teenagers.
00:21:47.000At that point, they're effectively men and women in their farm hands where you're going, okay, they may not have the judgment to pick someone.
00:21:52.000I get that, but that's not what's happening.
00:21:54.000You're talking about arranged marriages where one man gets many, many women.
00:21:57.000It's usually a sale, and invariably you end up with millions upon millions of child brides to much older men.
00:22:04.000Hey, when is it enough to be a concern?
00:23:14.000By the way, before I get to the truth, I could understand the argument to be made if they're saying actually they don't want women to be lusted after by other men and they protect the women.
00:23:21.000That's why they want them to dress modestly.
00:23:30.000Men are supposed to protect their women.
00:23:31.000So I understand the kernel of truth, and I actually think that we've gone too far the other way in the Western world, where a woman goes, I can do whatever I want, and I can go out with the girls and get drunk and go to the bar and have my breasts on display.
00:23:44.000And if you have a problem with that, that just means you're chauvinist.
00:23:47.000Well, then you're also married to a man who has no spine.
00:24:41.000But you can't make the argument that women are valuable when only the man can divorce her.
00:24:46.000She forfeits a lot of basic rights, by the way, to the children was a huge problem with missing children in um in areas of Michigan because they would only get married uh in the mosque and not by the state, and they would just the men would just run off.
00:24:58.000Also, the testimony of a woman is worth less than half of a man.
00:25:09.000But again, you add this all up under Sharia Law, fathers, complete control of legal custody, movement of the children, like I said, in divorce.
00:25:16.000So he says divorce, divorce, divorce three times.
00:25:41.000Oh Prophet, ask your wives, daughters and believing women to draw their cloaks over their bodies in this way, it is more likely that they will be recognized as virtuous and not be harassed.
00:25:52.000And Allah is all forgiving, most merciful.
00:26:25.000Well, that's one of the problems they get they run into when you have these people migrating to Europe and places like that.
00:26:30.000That's why they had the no rape flyers that we've talked about in different countries.
00:26:33.000They start to see women without all of this clothing on, and it's very titillating to them because that's not normal for them, right?
00:26:40.000So it it's just this it's a very weird juxtaposition, this religion of love, like the love stories in Islam.
00:26:47.000And what you just described to me is like how much love is there in a an arranged marriage at whatever, let's say they're above 18 in an arranged marriage.
00:26:57.000That's not like the true classic kind of love story That we're thinking about.
00:27:00.000How much love is there when you're literally going out and getting a child bride?
00:27:04.000Well, that's a different nine years of age.
00:27:07.000Like that what what about that is love in the context of what she's putting out?
00:27:13.000Like they're they're portraying this religion.
00:27:14.000And so I'm not just judging based on what I know about Islam and everything else, and you know, we're being very serious about this because it's a very serious thing.
00:28:14.000I I I don't I don't know if I have a stat handy to kind of prove that, but the stories that we hear is that the daughter brought shame on the family because she had a boyfriend who was not Islamic or maybe kissed or did something he shouldn't have done, and you know, slitting the throat and cutting the head off is probably the best way to restore the honor to the family.
00:28:42.000Well, here's the big difference too is um you know, if you look at Christianity, and I'm going to compare these two because the primary sort of religions that we would compare.
00:28:52.000Um it's it is about love, but it does have hierarchies and it is about order, right?
00:29:20.000It's not, hey, men and women are different, so you have different roles, and this is how you best support each other, and this is how you best raise a family.
00:29:27.000And of course, there needs to be a system of authority within a household and within a church governing body.
00:29:33.000If you look at the history of Islam and you look at the founding documents of Islam, it is hey, if you can take it and if you can keep it, do it.
00:31:28.000In Islam, do you guys know that there is No way to be guaranteed other than dying in jihad.
00:31:34.000That's why it makes sense all of a sudden.
00:31:36.000You start to understand that there's a reason why they view it differently because I can do everything right in Islam.
00:31:42.000And then I can get to heaven and is a very capricious God.
00:31:46.000If he's in a bad mood that day, I'm not good enough.
00:31:49.000Well, let me terrifying if you truly believe in the God of Islam and in the afterlife that that God promises.
00:31:56.000You're going to want to do everything that you can to make sure you get in.
00:31:59.000Well, and the reason I wanted to cover this is because if there are young women who are very malleable and you watch this, you say, well, that actually sounds nice.
00:33:40.000Can't subjugate this Jew, this Christian.
00:33:43.000One died for the people who mocked him and abused him.
00:33:47.000And one killed people just for not even agreeing with them.
00:33:51.000That's going to be two very different jumping off points.
00:33:56.000So please don't be fooled by the whitewashing and PBS as they use the terms Latinx and talk about human rights and civil rights and women's choice while they push out this idea of Islam being a pro-woman religion.
00:34:09.000And by the way, this is not something new to me.
00:35:14.000Muhammad was not only involved in the commanding of killing certain women, committed domestic violence against his wife.
00:35:18.000He should have said that women constituted a majority of hell, but there was actually a dame who was stoned to death as per his individual orders.
00:35:25.000Let me also just state uh right here for the record.
00:35:28.000Um, in watching that, I'd want to beat my own ass too.
