00:06:03.400uh you know the uh myron's myron's brother seemed like a nice brother but what he said is crazy
00:06:09.320this idea where he said the muslims are not oppressed or attacked yeah i know no no i push
00:06:13.240back i push back heavily i'm like yeah no no but you like how many attacks are there on hijabi
00:06:20.360muslims or muslim people what how many muslims being treated airport is example right i'll give
00:06:25.080us such a basic example of how it's gonna be treated in airports all around the world how are
00:06:30.120they being treated this ban on muslim countries entering right uh people muslims influence are
00:06:35.640coming be muslim influence coming and being detained by ice actually one of the influencers
00:06:39.640went to america one of the muslims and he legally came and they detained him for like two weeks
00:06:43.640before they sent him back what is this nonsense about muslims not being oppressed of this is like
00:06:48.600complete nonsense so the point is if you do not push back it only gets worse you don't push back
00:06:54.600as uh and you don't defend your position and you then say okay you're praying as muslim in in in
00:07:00.440in times square right what are you doing you're exercising your right you're getting pushed back
00:07:05.480for exercising your right the freedom of your right to be able to practice your faith of course
00:07:11.080you being there is an important thing because you're showing if you are attacking me when i'm
00:07:14.440exercising my right what if i'm not even exercising my right how am i going to be treated then
00:07:18.920so if we if we're being attacked on the things that we have a right to do in the country
00:07:23.720then we're already seeing the limitations happening so it's the reality is like anybody
00:07:29.320who claims like okay this is an issue no no no you need to be a muslim you just say okay this
00:07:33.480is what i believe and i told you i mentioned this idea before you cannot compare a secular
00:07:38.120western this idea of comparing with you know dubai at this country like look you cannot compare
00:07:44.120a secular uh country that allows freedom of speech freedom of religion with a muslim country
00:07:50.040that is core doctrines this is not the idea it allows it islam allows the people to practice
00:07:54.600their faith right but it doesn't allow it to have a complete freedom of speech we don't believe in
00:07:59.480that we don't believe in absolute freedom of speech you can say insult prophets insult messengers
00:08:03.480you know depict jesus this not we don't have this nonsense in islam right we have limitations when
00:08:08.040it comes to freedom of speech so are muslim countries remaining consistent they are remaining
00:08:12.120consistent but now you are you don't have the same methodology so it's a false comparison when you
00:08:17.880compare a country that is doctrine is saying look we are morally better than you because we allow
00:08:23.640freedom of speech we allow freedom for Asia and then you say oh but look but you're not doing it
00:08:27.480so are we morally better or not which one is it right is Islam a regressive thing which is limiting
00:08:32.520people or is that the right thing to do from the beginning and that's why you're bringing these
00:08:37.080Islamic uh examples right so you cannot make this comparison because it's a false comparison like
00:08:41.880I said right and look in Egypt I was mentioning this example to you in Egypt you have a massive
00:08:47.640number of coptic christians you know the they talk about freedom and whatever the uh egyptian
00:08:53.400president he built he built them the coptic christians the biggest cathedral in the middle
00:08:58.760east in 2019. he didn't build the biggest mosque in the middle east he built the biggest cathedral
00:09:05.320in the middle east that is the amount of influence that coptic christians have in egypt people who
00:09:10.840live who live in egypt i visited i saw they pray but when they pray when they have christmas or
00:09:15.400all of these things you see them in the streets coming out and they blockade the government comes
00:09:19.960and makes blockades in the road in front of big churches so they can celebrate christmas like i'm
00:09:26.840like bro what are you talking about like talking about practicing your faith that's allowed this
00:09:31.160is happening in muslim countries so okay you want to compare uh uae which is applying a law or
00:09:36.280whatever but this law in the uae it is excluded if you have a permit this is talking about doing
00:09:41.960something without a permit if i go to the government and seek a permit would there be
00:09:45.240issues doing that no you guys have a permit or you're doing it outside the law we had a permit
00:09:49.560you see false comparisons yeah like all of these like all of these things throughout all of the
00:09:53.800points that we made are false comparisons because in reality you are making lucky you're uh comparing
00:10:00.280you know apples and oranges and you're avoiding these issues right that this is an exception you
00:10:05.000have a permit it's happening one day a year and okay the idea about christians oh christians don't
00:10:10.280pray you don't see christians praying in the street in muslims christians don't religiously
00:10:14.440pray in the street they caught jesus in the bible that's why they keep saying performative religion
00:10:20.520you're praying in the street right that's what they got like which one is it is it that christians
00:10:25.000cannot pray in the street or is it performative to pray in the religion they caught jesus jesus
00:10:29.240said to them hide pray in secret you know don't pray out out in public okay this is their faith
00:10:34.200you're not going to see them praying out anyways it's not their doctrine so you how are you comparing
00:10:37.880an islamic one even though they do have the rockefeller tree in public and that was brought
00:10:42.000up but that's not really even used as a christian anymore it's more like a tourist destination but
00:10:46.420they also have catholic procession which is a parade in the streets where they
00:10:49.900absolutely yeah i mean you gotta compare that's what i'm saying apples and oranges you cannot
00:10:55.920compare an islamic uh teaching an action of worship where muslims do it in a specific way
00:11:00.780with how christians pray when they don't pray that way you gotta compare it the way they pray
00:11:05.120do they practice their own ways of worship in muslim lands yes their own ways of worship is
00:11:10.860to go to churches to celebrate do they do these things yes do they have their holidays yes so
00:11:15.960they're practicing their faith in the way that their faith is supposed to be practiced we practice
00:11:21.060our way in our in the way our faith is supposed to be practiced so we cannot make these these
00:11:25.660false comparisons uh with one another and i mean uh yeah so like there's so many points to mention
00:11:31.440but this is just what i saw you know from this i didn't really watch the full discussion i'm going
00:11:35.200to be honest but this is what i saw with what's what's been happening in the discussion but i mean
00:11:40.560look uh if if i talk to to myron's brother my message to him would have been that there are
00:11:46.960more important things to talk about if we are if we not just the idea that this is just a distraction
00:11:52.400the whole thing i'm talking about this for hours is an entire distraction on its own right but the
00:11:57.280fact is that do you believe islam is the truth or not because what i see if i speak to myron's
00:12:02.880brother i think he's gonna say yes i believe islam is the truth and islam is the religion
00:12:06.960they both said yes they both they both said yes to that question yeah but but i don't think if
00:12:12.880you speak to myron i don't think myron puts islam first there's a difference right i asked him he
00:12:19.920said yes yeah yeah so so he can say i'm a muslim and he can say islam is the truth that's fine but
00:12:25.760But the question is, if you ask him, is it Islam first or free speech and allowing people to curse the prophet, for example, and that this is if you go to this extent, I don't think he's going to take the position that it is Islam above these things.
00:12:39.500Right. And now I would say to Myron's brother that you have a bigger issue here to speak about with your brother than the point of prayer in Times Square or this place or that place.
00:12:50.020That's what I would say. Right. So I mean, they have their own. I'm sure he speaks to his brother in private.
00:12:54.540i don't know what they do whether he advises him or not i think it's bigger issues there's bigger
00:12:58.780issues there's more important issues and as a muslim you cannot i mean with all due respect
00:13:04.300you cannot use the r word for a prayer uh an action when muslims are praying how you say i'm
00:13:09.740a muslim imagine a christian says about the christian uh acts of worship it's an r thing to do
00:13:17.420right uh okay let's let's be fair maybe he's saying the r thing to do is to do it in public
00:13:22.300but to do it in public is accepted islamically this is this is all within the islamic framework
00:13:27.660so i don't think this is the right methodology to use and say in the same time say i'm a muslim
00:13:31.580but i'm gonna say it's hard to do this or that right and i mean like when you said do you want
00:13:36.620to come on i said like i don't want to come because i don't want to speak to uh you know
00:13:40.300i wanted to have you on i wanted to have you on 1v1 yeah yeah yeah no no because you know he he's
00:13:45.260like he said they said this stuff before like cloud chasing whatever like a brother i don't
00:13:49.340alhamdulillah i don't need you can go people know people can see compare numbers if they
00:13:54.220want i don't need this nonsense right but that's the reason i was like it doesn't matter to talk
00:13:58.220to him but but in reality look this is more important issues i believe myron for him
00:14:03.820his doctrine is america it's nationalism basically i believe myron's doctrine and faith is is
00:14:11.580nationalism right and he kind of said that later on i think he was saying that the this war is
00:14:16.620political first religious second what would you say to that overall idea or people are denying
00:14:22.300what i see is to be a very obvious forefront of the war america is in with israel against iran
00:14:28.940that this is a religious war like any war that israel is involved in of course it's
00:14:33.020religious war because it's a religious state so what what are the religious aspects that you've
00:14:38.060noticed yeah you remind me of a point that you kept mentioning that that they kind of kept talking
00:14:43.820about if it's a religious war then why do you have the the muslims attacking each other whatever this
00:14:48.220and that we talked about this idea multiple times how many countries have issues of control being
00:14:54.780controlled by the same person by the same entity that we talk about so you're talking about
00:14:59.180government level are muslims united at heart for the issue of palestine yes if we go now to if yeah
00:15:06.220this idea that muslims are not united religiously are not united credibly is incorrect muslims are
00:15:12.380all united for masjid al-aqsa they're all united for the support of the people of palestine
00:15:17.660they're all supported against the zionist state they're all supported they're all sorry united on
00:15:22.620this idea all of them so the claim that they're no so you cannot compare if a government how
00:15:27.420government does something because it's not a representation of islam you cannot compare how
00:15:31.100the government does something against another government again also we have this idea this
00:15:34.940this came they've been uh attacking a u.s bases which is a part of the war they're not necessarily
00:15:39.660attacking the Muslims, the other Muslims, but they're attacking US bases. Of course, we know
00:15:43.340there are claims and there's statements. And it's true that our buildings that have been hit that
00:15:47.280are not a part of US bases, right? Which is not good, to be honest. We have to be honest.
00:15:52.420And we are with the Muslims, their blood is all valuable anywhere, whether they're in the Middle
00:15:56.620East or they're around, anywhere in the world, because you see people taking sides. No, Muslims,
00:16:01.920their blood is all valuable, right? And yes, you're allowed to attack bases here and there.
00:16:07.420Nobody's going to attack this part of the war.
00:16:09.580But innocent people should not be attacked, of course.
00:16:11.900And a lot of people are like, oh, they deserve it because their government is doing things.
00:16:18.140Brother, if I'm living in the country, I'm not controlling the government.
00:16:21.500So if something comes and attacks me, how are you linking me to what the government is doing, right?
00:16:26.120So I think that is a very, like, it's a very incorrect thing to say.
00:16:29.620And those people need to rethink their Islam.
00:16:33.020Because this is a part of the brotherhood in Islam, right?
00:16:35.280So, I mean, this idea, now we talked about the political idea, right?
00:16:38.860It's a political war or a religious war.
00:16:40.440Like I said, okay, countries are being controlled, controlled by which state, for which purpose?
00:16:44.900Purpose of building, rebuilding a temple, uniting the Jewish people for religion.
00:16:49.460The war that is happening between Iran and Israel, religious war about having control in the region.
00:52:37.580or anyone do not cause harm to yourself or do not represent this isn't hard i'm gonna ask this
00:52:41.600question i know i know but you know it doesn't go to this extent it goes to the extent of actual
00:52:47.060harm and and cutting and this is how it's done not not just like it's not as small as this yeah
00:52:51.420i know but i'm gonna ask even if it's not harm even it's not harm where does it come from right
00:52:55.540where does it come from if you practice it as a religious belief what is the source of it if you
00:53:00.560don't practice it as a religious belief it's fine you know one day it's uh it's a sign of defiance
00:53:05.880No, no, no, no. And by the way, like, I'm not telling you do this or don't do that. I don't do this with people, right? I believe individuals are all rational human beings that are given agency. Do your research. Investigate. But you as a Muslim, if you say I'm a Muslim, you would all agree that you should follow the Quran and the Prophet. If we all agree we should follow the Quran and the Prophet, then if I say to you, brother, don't do this because the Prophet didn't do it, don't come and insult me. Start calling me names.
