Transcript
00:00:04.080
Police can swear to God, but see me from the gun
00:00:13.660
I know my friends and I, would probably turn the gun
00:00:18.620
If you get out of bed, come find us heading for the bridge
00:00:24.060
Bring us to the snow, all the rage might do the dark age
00:00:38.240
If you get out of bed, and find me standing all alone
00:04:50.460
Nothing like a single stream without technical difficulties.
00:05:16.680
Do you guys see an old VOD from that thing or whatever?
00:05:44.380
Are you talking about my internet or are you talking about my hairline?
00:06:01.180
Rumble Chat said, turn off your kick butts.
1.00
00:06:14.180
Yeah, but we have a great interview planned with Frost the Hobby today.
00:06:49.060
I think like every single person that talks about my appearance, I want to know what you look like.
00:06:53.560
Put your Instagram right now in the chat so I can see what you look like.
00:07:20.360
Yeah, but that kick's in a weird spot, isn't it?
00:07:30.480
Also, if anyone knows any good information on Frost the Hobby, I've been looking forward to this interview for a long time.
00:07:36.280
And if it goes well, then I'll pull it to Montreal and we can do a good collab with him.
00:07:45.660
Waze has been like, I don't know what the fuck's going on with him.
0.98
00:07:48.300
It's like he's been sick and then there's like issues and, you know, hopefully.
00:07:52.480
But it's good to show loyalty to your team regardless.
00:07:56.040
But he's been, I don't know, he's going through something.
00:07:58.540
Because there's been like, you know, simple mistakes.
00:08:00.700
Like the spelling error yesterday for the stream, that really annoyed me, bro.
00:08:04.000
Like spelling a title wrong, that's just like, dude, what do you like?
00:08:06.960
You get paid too much money to spell words wrong in a title.
00:08:16.360
Go to Turkey with, I'm not, it's, it's, it's, stop making that joke.
00:08:24.680
Yes, I'm not, I don't need, please wash your clothes.
1.00
00:08:34.240
Can I talk about how good I've been feeling and consistent?
00:08:38.680
This is that sobriety, no fat, consistent gym glow.
00:08:45.860
And I've been going to the sauna every day too.
00:08:47.760
So that's really, that's why I sound like this.
00:08:58.160
I'm not, see, let me just end the turkey things once and for all.
00:09:02.940
If you fucking losers need hair to have self-esteem, then go to Turkey and spend 10 bans so that
1.00
00:09:14.600
I'll look like a monk before I ever go to Turkey and sew a needle in my hair.
0.84
00:09:26.180
You, if you're afraid of being bald, you got a weird head.
0.92
00:09:29.000
Not if you give weird head, if you have a weird head, that's on you.
0.81
00:09:41.140
And also I strategically wear my headphones like this so that I don't get the headphone
00:09:45.620
in debt from all the weird streamers because the streamers, they keep their headphones
00:09:50.500
It's always pressing in the middle of their head and they end up having a dent in their
00:09:55.640
I wear it in the back, like a snap, just like this.
00:10:00.520
Cause when I'm done streaming, I don't want to have any remnants.
00:10:03.140
I don't want to have any Turkey scars and he hadn't headphone indents.
1.00
00:10:20.620
You, you've been chatting for three years, for two years straight and Rumble and you're
1.00
00:10:26.460
So don't talk about my, my appearance when you are going to hide behind the computer
00:10:32.520
I don't want to hear a word from any of these people talking about what I look like and
00:10:45.560
Trump is appointing a lot of people to his cabinet.
00:10:49.640
I'd like that Nikki Haley's not going to be involved.
00:10:51.400
I like that Pompeo is not going to be involved, but Huckabee being the, um, the ambassador
00:10:56.260
to Israel is he appointed a Hindu to the new CIA director is a Hindu Indian.
00:11:09.500
It's a lot of Zionists and Indians in the cabinet so far.
0.99
00:11:18.620
I've been more loyal to Trump than a lot of the people in his cabinet right now.
00:11:24.320
I voted back in, I was supporting in 2015, 2016.
00:11:33.380
They're saying he was orange, saying he was rich.
00:11:54.000
Like why do I, why do I try to talk about anything serious?
00:11:57.100
When like, everyone just has the most like low IQ.
00:12:00.440
Also, Resident Evil has been hiding ever since then.
00:12:03.760
Resident, ever since I told you to post your Instagram, you've been hiding.
0.76
00:12:11.840
Before you talk about my jacket or my hair.
1.00
00:12:22.540
Do I, I don't, I don't see any links in the chat.
00:12:54.240
You want me to like lift my legs up in the air in missionary position?
00:12:57.560
You know, like, like, you see other streamers.
1.00
00:12:59.340
You want me to, you want me to take a shit on stream?
0.99
00:13:02.080
Before I started streaming on, cross-streaming on kick, I used to make jokes about how people
00:13:08.600
Like, kick content now is literally people taking shits.
0.99
00:13:12.380
It was ironic before, but there's kick streamers, like, just pooping and shitting on stream.
0.97
00:13:24.480
Maybe gambling's not so bad if people are pooping and shitting for clips.
0.98
00:13:40.900
Streamers making sure Andy Ross isn't one of the best collab streamed with Donald Trump.
00:13:45.560
You know, I do think the Strickland stream was, in my opinion, because I'm my biggest fan.
00:13:52.480
I think the Strickland stream was the best of the year.
00:13:54.100
But if we're, of the ones nominated, is like, very clearly, Kai Sinat, Kevin Hart, and Drewski.
0.99
00:14:16.120
And this stream was funny, but it's just like, you know, a lot of screaming and screaming.
1.00
00:14:25.640
And then a stream that influenced the election.
00:14:30.720
And then finally, our last nominee, Aiden Ross and Donald Trump.
00:14:46.060
Like, it's like there's a whole agenda from all these leftist streamers.
00:14:51.940
All the Jinxy clips I've seen since we did the podcast is him crying.
0.99
00:14:56.500
It's him crying over his girlfriend, saying that he jerks off to porn too much.
0.99
00:15:15.020
Chad, I'm not going to ever make a streaming award.
00:15:20.480
That's why I like when rappers just dissing themselves.
00:15:22.600
Like, Drake, for example, he doesn't even acknowledge the Grammys at all because he realizes he's bigger than that.
00:15:28.840
Aiden should not care about this because he should just be like, let me transcend it.
0.99
00:15:34.420
Like, you guys are saying I'm salty, I'm not on it.
1.00
00:15:35.920
But Wallahi, I have no idea who the fuck this is.
0.98
00:15:39.520
For God's sake, finally download The Last of Us.
0.98
00:15:59.400
Playboy Max, you have an American flag right here and you don't care about the president?
00:16:04.360
I don't care about, so you care about Fortnite Friday?
00:16:16.500
But like, how the fuck is Kenna in the same category as the stream that influenced the elect?
0.89
00:16:32.540
This didn't touch the Kevin Hart, Kai Sinat stream.
0.99
00:16:49.880
I was liking this edit until I saw him here.
0.99
00:16:56.640
Like, brother, Kai Sinat and Kevin Hart did was not cringe.
00:17:16.200
I wanted to kiss Trump on the lips, brother.
1.00
00:18:00.240
I bet, like, who cares about these fucking awards, dude?
0.99
00:18:03.000
Like, I've never heard of this guy in my life.
0.99
00:18:27.760
Has she called me like an anti-Semite or something?
00:18:51.840
I'm going to call for Austin and let's go through clips real quick.
00:19:07.220
When you hate Jews or talk badly about Jewish people, it's automatically anti-Semitism.
00:19:15.000
And I thought to myself, wow, Sneeko does have a point.
00:19:24.180
Should I set her up with Jake Future on a date?
00:19:51.220
You're trying to go bald like Andrew Tate, I see.
00:19:58.000
Like some Brazilian bitch's hair on my head in Turkey for 10K.
1.00
00:20:19.860
I love that from the Dambles Earring interview.
00:20:21.600
He really pointed out how the Armenian genocide is confirmed.
00:20:24.820
10 million people got genocided by Zionists.
1.00
00:20:27.060
But you can question that and like no one cares.
00:20:31.120
But different holocausts, different genocides.
0.84
00:20:33.060
If you question that, your Wikipedia gets changed forever.
00:21:06.300
20 years ago, Kamala Harris slandered Michael Jackson.
1.00
00:21:12.240
Few people know that Trump and Michael were once best friends.
00:21:15.320
In 1993, Michael was accused of inappropriate relations with children.
00:21:19.840
And the media began attacking him relentlessly.
00:21:23.520
Did you know that Rabbi Schmolle was all, was all up in Michael Jackson's business?
0.83
00:21:30.620
At a crucial moment, Trump took Michael into his home for nine months and chased away all
00:21:36.200
From that point on, they formed a deep friendship.
00:21:39.040
Unexpectedly, in 2003, Michael was slandered again.
00:21:44.000
No way you wanted a multi-million dollar deal and you only get 2K views.
00:21:49.420
Did you want me to do that so that your self-esteem could feel better?
00:21:55.120
Because I'm streaming, I'm cross-streaming and the people, oh, they talk about views.
00:21:58.800
Do you want to see 18,000 people like watching me sleep and fart?
00:22:06.960
Like if you know that I'm not botting, why does that matter to you?
00:22:09.320
People's, even, it's crazy that people who aren't even streamers are invested into
00:22:14.800
Why don't you just grow your hair long to hide the balding?
1.00
00:22:17.640
Because I'm not balling, you fucking dumbass.
1.00
00:22:28.760
He made a fake documentary to slander him.
1.00
00:22:31.020
And Harris, who was the California Attorney General at the time, openly slandered Michael
00:22:35.280
in a media interview, claiming that even without evidence, children don't lie.
00:22:39.220
Trump investigated and found that the mothers of these children were fraudsters who used
00:22:44.620
I saw you mentioned that you don't drink at all.
1.00
00:22:47.960
People are either like, you're a bitch, or like, oh, that's so cute.
1.00
00:22:51.580
You should at least use peeps for the corners of your hairline before it's too late.
1.00
00:22:56.640
A lot of weird reactions when I tell people that.
00:23:01.500
So I'm Muslim, so I just don't drink off the strength of that.
00:23:05.660
Hey, look, me and Aiden made it on Bradley Martin's TikTok.
00:23:10.720
But if I feel like I could potentially get hooked on it, and I could barely control my
00:23:19.380
Sometimes I ask myself if these comments really have an impact on your psyche, or if you just
00:23:24.160
play the game to bait her on police for content.
0.90
00:23:27.320
Dudes who jerked off five minutes ago will criticize you and even troll you.
0.97
00:23:34.540
I think Aiden actually found a good balance of it.
00:23:37.600
Because he's still a practicing Muslim, but it's not his entire content, or it's not his
0.99
00:23:42.320
People don't think of him as a Muslim streamer.
00:23:45.000
So he found a way to separate himself from that.
00:24:08.700
It's so funny seeing these clips because they're like right downstairs.
00:24:12.460
These women think because they bad, that give them access to a top-level individual like
1.00
00:24:17.260
They should be banished and thrown in a moat with the crocodiles.
1.00
00:24:48.340
Everything she could want and need and dream of.
00:24:56.480
No homo sapien, no ditty, whatever you want to call it.
00:25:01.460
So they gotta come with something that's gonna shock my core to make me be like, damn,
0.99
00:25:06.180
Because I'm dropping big dog dick in that pussy.
1.00
00:25:09.940
How would a woman know that you're gonna drop a 10-incher on her if she hasn't even...
1.00
00:26:07.140
Boy, them two guys talking about 10-inchers and...
00:26:16.420
Baby, if I come, then you come and you go where I go.
00:26:20.800
In relation to your whole thing, which is about...
00:26:26.820
Like, this gender ideology that we're fighting against here in this country.
1.00
00:26:44.940
Are they talking about how the Talmud invented eight genders?
00:26:51.960
I don't know if they want to, like, burn all their bridges because they have good connections,
00:26:58.220
Look, the title of the site, the eight genders in the Talmud, my Jewish learning.
00:27:10.980
Chad, is it anti-Semitic to go to myJewishLearning.com?
00:27:19.600
Judaism has recognized non-binary persons for a millennia.
00:27:26.620
Thought non-binary gender was a modern concept?
00:27:33.980
Because it's a major awakening, but they're kind of the same brain at once.
00:28:19.440
Thought non-binary gender was a modern concept?
00:28:23.400
The ancient Jewish understanding of gender was far more nuanced than many assume.
00:28:31.880
I am a long-time Fierce Watcher and was pushing for the stream for a long time.
00:28:36.320
I made a list of questions and posted it on Love Speech.
00:28:39.320
Guaranteed some of them would go viral on MMA Twitter.
00:28:49.000
You were working out with Cordero and you were ripping to the body and throwing those hooks.
00:28:52.540
I was like, this is a man who's preparing to go to combat.
1.00
00:28:55.360
This is not normal getting ready to work out shit.
0.99
00:28:58.080
That's why when I saw that video, I was like, oh.
0.98
00:29:00.000
Want me to tell you something about that video?
00:29:05.700
That was 30 seconds and I was in bed for a week.
00:29:09.560
And it's not funny because it made me realize that this is, this is, this is.
00:29:13.440
Man, Joe started laughing right when he said that.
1.00
00:29:16.800
When you were working out with Cordero, you were working.
1.00
00:29:20.420
Niggas hate on me because I'm a fat nigger.
1.00
00:29:22.480
I don't give a fuck because I'm a bitch getter.
1.00
00:29:30.140
Because I heard that nigga was a kid diddler.
1.00
00:29:39.100
Niggas hate on me because I'm a fat nigger.
1.00
00:29:41.220
I don't give a fuck because I'm a bitch getter.
1.00
00:29:48.100
Did you hear, they didn't censor the hard R, but they censored Hitler?
0.99
00:29:55.740
You can say the hard R on this, but you can't say Hitler?
0.85
00:30:04.640
Niggas hate on me because I'm a fat nigger.
1.00
00:30:06.720
I don't give a fuck because I'm a bitch getter.
1.00
00:30:14.440
Because I heard that nigga was a kid diddler.
1.00
00:30:23.380
I want to make sure I get this on camera because it's going viral.
00:30:43.480
They trying to kick me out, y'all, because I got my hat on.
0.99
00:30:48.880
Have you faced any scrutiny for wearing the MAGA hat?
00:31:13.580
I don't know if you're interested in it at all,
00:31:23.560
Jimmy, I don't know if you're interested in it at all,
00:31:38.180
We would love to do a segment with Date My Mod type of vibe.
1.00
00:32:25.260
Yeah, so anti-Semitism, but with less confidence.
00:32:52.300
Ask about what makes Dagestani and Chesney fighters so special.
00:33:13.080
Since you want to gain weight, ask about strategies that are healthy and effective.
00:33:23.840
So, if you don't know, Fras Abhiu is George St. Pierre's coach.
00:33:33.440
I've been looking forward to talking to him for a long time.
00:33:45.660
He's supposed to come out at 9pm, and now he's not responding anymore.
00:33:49.860
Dude, this guy's a hard guy to get in contact with, bro.
00:33:53.460
Damn, Aiden Rocks finally left Demesucks.com after he got Sneeko to join where they don't
0.99
00:33:58.420
put him on the front page the same as Rumble.
0.98
00:34:01.000
It seems like no matter where they treat him badly, hopefully party will be different.
00:34:31.820
Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican, Mexican,
00:39:20.720
yeah you're just not going through my earphones
01:04:10.040
that I speak to you because you have a background
01:04:32.920
guy fall and one guy not you know why did these
01:04:37.420
was successful and the other one wasn't and you
01:04:41.880
breaking things down trying to figure out going
01:04:44.840
on in there exactly you know taking a microscope and
01:04:49.720
trying to figure out what's going on do you think
01:04:52.140
that other coaches and other camps apply philosophy
01:04:56.760
because I don't it doesn't seem like they do at all
01:04:59.020
maybe not philosophy per se maybe not they're not
01:05:02.680
trained in philosophy but there's there's a lot of
01:05:04.760
smart people in the sport you know a lot of smart
01:05:06.700
people and I think it's more about asking the right
01:05:11.360
I'm formally trained in logic but I don't think
01:05:14.960
it's it's it's the one one perfect way to do it you
01:05:18.980
know I think there's a lot of people who've been doing
01:05:20.620
this for a long time and they've seen a lot and what
01:05:24.000
their experience and trial and error in the gym trying
01:05:27.260
different things trying different approaches working
01:05:29.300
with different coaches they get different ideas and
01:05:31.380
they kind of figure their way around you said you're
01:05:34.720
you're trained in logic some people are saying that you
01:05:36.880
have a master's degree in philosophy but what do you
01:05:38.680
mean trained in logic no no train well philosophy is a
01:05:41.540
study of logic okay philosophy means literally means
01:05:44.740
the love of of wisdom a lover of wisdom a philosopher is
01:05:48.680
a lover of wisdom okay that's what it translates to but
01:05:51.120
when you go to university they teach you formal logic what are
01:05:55.700
the rules to logic what is something what makes
01:05:57.840
something logical or illogical that's that's really what
01:06:01.160
philosophy is okay it's a study of epistemology how we know
01:06:04.860
things the the philosophy of no I shouldn't say the thought the
01:06:07.980
science of how we know things like for instance if you know if
01:06:12.980
you say one plus one equals two well what kind of logic are
01:06:15.520
you using there well we say that's an analytical logic it's
01:06:18.320
true by definition okay so then you have science you know like
01:06:21.960
physics what kind of logic are they using well they're using
01:06:25.760
inductive logic they're going by trial and error they're trying
01:06:33.640
philosophy is really the study of logic formal logic what makes
01:06:40.740
something true or false does that conflict with being a deist
01:06:46.920
I've heard a lot of people who are religious they say that you
01:06:50.000
should not pursue philosophy because it's not something I agree
01:06:53.440
with they say you shouldn't pursue philosophy because it'll put doubt in
01:06:56.560
your mind a lot of the leading philosophers people like Sartre Nietzsche
0.96
01:06:59.520
these people are like weird sexual deviants and you know these
0.84
01:07:05.160
existentialists a lot of them you know could push people away
0.99
01:07:15.020
it's the study of logic so how could you say the study of logic is haram
01:07:19.820
I'd have to ask them okay why do you think the study of logic is haram though
01:07:24.140
they're gonna have to give me a logical question a logical argument and they're
01:07:29.300
using philosophy they're gonna have to philosophize on why it's haram
01:07:32.300
and so it's a self-defeating position you cannot say you cannot say logic or
01:07:38.940
philosophy is haram you can't say that it's completely irrational it's a self-defeating
01:07:43.340
position if I ask a Muslim or anybody what is philosophy first they're gonna have to
1.00
01:07:47.980
define it so philosophy is the study of logic okay to put simply okay so why is the study
01:07:55.340
of logic haram well he's gonna have to come up with some rationale he's gonna have to
01:07:58.620
use logic but he's using something that he's claiming as haram to prove something
01:08:04.140
it's not it's inescapable logic is inescapable okay now the question isn't really whether it's
01:08:12.140
haram I'm just I'm wondering has it instilled any doubt in your mind or is the study
01:08:16.620
no no quite the opposite quite the opposite quite the opposite look quite the opposite
01:08:22.460
philosophy brought me to Islam like it made me very confident in Islam made me give me
1.00
01:08:28.060
it gave me reassurance in Islam and it's it's super like I don't I don't think all Muslims need
1.00
01:08:36.380
to be philosophers no but we have to have philosophers so in Islam we should have architects
0.97
01:08:41.340
we should have engineers we should have lawyers we should have doctors and we should have philosophers
01:08:49.180
why shouldn't we have philosophers you know that Islam was very famous for their philosophy
01:08:54.140
once upon a time in the golden age of Islam when Islam was very successful
1.00
01:08:58.540
we had many philosophers now I studied Greek philosophy I studied Muslim philosophy and I studied
01:09:04.220
British British empiricism or the enlightenment period mostly so the European philosophers okay I studied
01:09:10.140
those three eras and I could tell you the the Muslims were highly influential highly developed
01:09:16.780
highly rational and I'm a big follower of Ghazali you know I find Ghazali to be incredibly inspiring
01:09:24.140
now did it create the rifts and and and feuds yes okay but you'd be surprised how
01:09:30.060
open-minded thinkers like Ghazali were at the time okay so it's quite a complex history but they were
01:09:35.660
incredibly profound incredibly profound and in my opinion thinkers like Ghazali really truly understand
01:09:43.820
what the Quran is saying because the Quran is making logical claims over and over again and the Quran
01:09:49.100
actually criticizes those who don't use reason the Quran tells you look if you ask them why they're why
01:09:54.620
they believe what they believe they're going to say we just believe because our fathers believe that
01:09:58.300
they told us to believe it now when you ask Muslims oh they say no don't think don't don't use
1.00
01:10:03.420
reason just believe no no wait a second the Quran is actually telling you the pagans only believe
01:10:09.260
what they believe because their fathers told them if they're following tradition they're not using logic
01:10:13.740
they're not they're not using rationale and I was actually quite amazed at how uh impressive the
01:10:20.860
Muslim thinkers were and the conclusions that they came down to you know and one of the most profound
01:10:28.300
conclusions that they came to the Muslim philosophers was a lot of critique towards Christianity you know
01:10:34.380
the the Christians of course critiqued Islam and the Muslims critique Christianity and I found that
1.00
01:10:40.860
yeah probably yeah we're always going to have a dialogue we're supposed to have dialogues in a
01:10:44.060
good way in a positive way never negative never you know we don't need to have animosity with one another
01:10:49.820
but why do they believe Christ is God why do they believe he died for your sins well there's a very
01:10:55.020
profound point the Quran is making that I think a lot of the Muslims today just don't understand why
1.00
01:11:01.500
because they didn't study logic and philosophy and then they didn't here's the thing if the Quran was
01:11:08.300
let's say the Quran was talking about the heart and how the heart sends blood in the circulatory system
01:11:15.500
you might go ask a doctor hey can you read these verses and make some kind of logical connection
01:11:20.220
between what you've learned in science in the circulatory system and what the Quran is saying
01:11:25.980
and you might find there's a parallel like for instance the Quran talks about mountains okay
01:11:29.980
you go you speak to a geologist and geologist is going to say well it does actually the mountain
01:11:34.540
does have a root and it does stop the the tectonic plates from shifting etc so you you will go to an
01:11:40.300
expert in geology and ask him about what the Quran is saying when it's referring to mountains but
01:11:45.260
when the Quran is making a logical argument why don't you ask a logician somebody who studied and
0.71
01:11:50.140
formally trained in logic why not make the same parallel you know so I think logic is is very
01:11:57.500
important because the Quran is over and over again making logical arguments that I find is um understood by
01:12:04.140
by the by the Muslims but not as it's not as it's not as understood as well as people who formally studied
01:12:10.940
logic like I'll give you a for instance okay the Christians say that Jesus died on the cross for your sins
01:12:22.540
the Quran says people who say that they don't know they're just guessing they're just they're just
01:12:27.420
people who are guessing okay there are people who are like uh they're they're they're super full of
01:12:34.060
doubts they're not sure they're not they're so so unsure they're just kind of like they're just
01:12:39.580
following what's on the bandwagon what people said they're trying to put a piece of puzzle together and
01:12:43.740
they can't they can't make heads or tails of it that's what the Quran is basically trying to tell you
01:12:47.420
they don't have any certainty about what happened in the past now if you look at JFK JFK died
01:12:53.420
less than 100 years ago about 100 years ago whatever it was we had CIA FBI recorded video
01:13:04.780
secret agents we have every type of possible entity there and we still don't know exactly what
01:13:11.660
happened to them we don't know if you shot from the front shot from the back how many bullets were
01:13:15.500
fired there's still a lot of mystery yet we have all the great minds of the world looking at the same
01:13:20.940
footage studying the same event that happened in broad daylight with thousands of witnesses filmed
01:13:26.620
on camera we still can't figure out exactly how this man was killed which who shot him what what was
01:13:34.300
the exact uh you know some people think he was shot from behind well some people believe he was shot by
01:13:39.980
leo harvey oswald some people say no he was shot by the past the grassy knoll by the fans there must have
01:13:46.140
been a bullet coming towards him not only from the back etc there's a major controversy and that's
01:13:52.700
something that happened in broad daylight to a man surrounded by thousands of people imagine now
01:14:00.620
you're trying to tell me the Quran is saying look do you think you know what happened 2000 years ago to
01:14:09.260
2000 years ago and the witnesses were not even there like you don't even have the witnesses because you know
01:14:14.620
the gospels they're anonymous we don't know who wrote mark matthew luke and john those were names
01:14:20.380
that were attributed later on okay we don't we they're anonymous sources their scholars their
01:14:25.580
christian scholars say there's about 50 other gospels think about that there's 50 other claims to what happened
01:14:34.860
these are not eyewitness claims this is something happened 2000 years ago you think by reading these
01:14:40.060
anonymous books you can piece the pie together and you can you could be so sure that this event happened
01:14:45.420
because in christianity it says you know paul says if jesus didn't die and wasn't resurrected your faith
01:14:52.540
is in vain if this event didn't happen exactly like so christianity is in vain you understand it's
01:14:59.500
riding on this historical event now if you listen to the if you if you listen to the Quran the Quran is
01:15:05.580
saying look it's telling the prophet alayhi salam you don't know what happened to Noah we're informing
01:15:11.260
you the Quran is informing you you didn't deduce it you didn't go and play uh Sherlock Holmes and
01:15:18.140
figure it out this is news we're giving to you this is revelation you understand now because it's
01:15:24.620
revelation you're taking it upon faith okay so ghazali will tell you look we accept what the Quran is
01:15:30.140
saying because there's nothing that's contradicting the Quran okay we accept it it's revelation the
01:15:34.220
prophet passed the test but there are things that we can verify in the Quran for ourselves the most
01:15:39.820
important things and ghazali's point is that islam is a naturally it's a natural religion and a
01:15:48.140
revealed religion this is a very important point i think ghazali is making a very important ibn tufal
01:15:52.780
made this point heavily as well another muslim thinker islam is a you're born upon the fitrah
0.63
01:16:05.500
the Quran critiques the christian and the jews it says to the christian and the jews tells us
0.83
01:16:09.980
actually to tell them tell them abraham was upon the faith before the scripture because the bible
01:16:15.420
is the story of abraham so abraham didn't have the bible if you read the bible after genesis you're
01:16:21.340
reading the story of abraham how could abraham have the story of abraham he didn't have scripture
01:16:26.380
abraham what was he upon he was upon the fitrah instead the bible the old testament is about
01:16:33.100
abraham so abraham didn't have a scripture but yet he's already guided so he didn't believe in the
01:16:39.340
resurrection the death and resurrection etc he didn't have to believe in that but yet he was good
01:16:43.980
with god he was a pious man he was a saved man what was he upon well he was upon the fitrah so
01:16:50.780
the quran is here to remind you of a religion you were born in the quran is making this very strong
01:16:58.620
point that you already know god your god is an innate idea it's already you're already known the
01:17:04.220
quran actually says that before you're born in this world the whole all of humanity gave shahada to god
01:17:11.740
god asks who's your one and only true god and we all gave the shahada you're the one and only true god
01:17:16.700
and then that's pre-existence don't forget then we're born into this world that's why the prophet
01:17:22.780
alayhi salam says look every child is born upon the fitrah muslim even though islam didn't exist
0.99
01:17:30.140
because islam doesn't mean you believe in the quran islam means you're upon the fitrah
01:17:36.300
can you describe what fitrah means for the ones that don't know yeah fitrah is is a
01:17:41.500
it's a it's a it's a difficult thing but it's basically the natural state the natural state
01:17:46.940
it's your it's your natural innate religion it's an innate religion okay so look i'm gonna i'm gonna
01:17:55.180
i'm gonna show you okay so everything you ever learned in your entire life we had to point to it
01:18:04.140
okay so for instance when you learned the color red i had to show you the color red somebody had to show
01:18:08.300
you the color red and say that's the color red and you had an experience of the color red
01:18:13.580
then you saw a cat and we said that's a cat we associated the word cat to that animal
01:18:20.140
everything that's in your head you once saw it in your senses okay this is like um
01:18:28.060
basic basic philosophy all all philosophers in the world we agree on this okay so for instance
01:18:32.460
if you were born blind let's say sneaker you were born blind you would know nothing about the color red
01:18:38.540
no matter how intelligent you are if einstein was born blind
01:18:43.660
we could talk to him about the color red toward blue in the face guess what he'll never understand
01:18:47.900
what the color red is he has to see red to understand red you understand what i'm trying to say you follow
01:18:55.020
if you never tasted chocolate can you know what the taste of chocolate is no no you'd have to taste
01:19:02.140
chocolate now you know what chocolate is now you can remember it
01:19:04.860
everything that you have in your head you have to see in your senses you have to have in your senses
01:19:10.940
everything i'm gonna tell you okay i want you to imagine in your mind a piece of chocolate you can
01:19:18.380
yes can you imagine okay i want you to imagine a red bicycle can you imagine a red bicycle yes okay now i
01:19:25.660
want you to imagine i don't know a cloud i can no problem right that's easy how about a yellow cloud
01:19:35.500
i can picture it yeah okay but yellow clouds don't exist correct they don't they don't but you took your
01:19:42.780
idea of cloud and you took your idea of yellow one once upon a time you saw a yellow flower or yellow
01:19:47.660
crayon or something you saw yellow you saw a cloud now in your mind you can mix them up
01:19:55.900
right so in your mind you can make a concoction you can make up something you can make up
01:20:01.180
santa claus but santa claus is made up of things that are real so reindeer exist men exist slaves exist
01:20:10.300
flight exists how do you know flight exists you saw a bird flying okay flight exists
01:20:14.620
everything that's in your head you saw with the senses
01:20:23.180
so look you're wearing a jean jacket right if i asked you to picture i don't know um
01:20:30.700
a cloud that's made of jean jacket you could picture it doesn't exist yeah but you could picture it
01:20:36.620
because you saw a jean you saw a cloud now in your mind only in your mind you can make a
01:20:41.340
a picture of it you could mix things around in your mind right
01:20:48.700
you could think of gold you can think of mountain and in your mind you can make a golden mountain
01:20:55.260
but in your mind it's just an imagination right it's only imagination but gold exists
01:21:01.260
the the parts that make up a golden mountain exists okay this is what david hume he used the
01:21:06.140
example of a golden mountain you saw gold you saw a mountain and then in your mind you could
01:21:11.660
picture a golden mountain but golden mountains don't exist in the world correct okay but everything
01:21:17.980
you can imagine in your mind imagine any wild thing any wild creature any imagine the spaghetti
01:21:23.740
monster imagine any crazy idea in your head it's all a collage it's all a mixture of things you've
01:21:30.540
experienced so if you never saw the color yellow imagine you never saw the color yellow you could
01:21:40.140
never picture a yellow rose if all you ever saw was a red rose a blue rose a pink rose you would never
01:21:47.020
come up with the idea of yellow never you have to experience yellow you have to see yellow then you
01:21:53.820
could imagine yellow you understand this is a very important point like i'm not trying to
01:22:00.940
say anything yet okay just try to follow what i'm saying everything that's in your head was once in
01:22:06.860
your senses you either saw it smelt it taste it heard it or touched it those are your senses you have five senses
01:22:17.020
so if you never touched sandpaper you don't know what sandpaper feels like
01:22:24.380
once you touch sandpaper you're like oh i have the idea of rough something rough
01:22:28.780
and now you can imagine a rough cloud okay today we use the example of cloud i can pick i can imagine
01:22:34.460
a rough cloud made of sandpaper even though they don't exist this is a very important point okay so
01:22:39.980
we're starting to understand that everything we have in our heads we once experienced
01:22:46.780
if i didn't experience it i don't have it in my head just like the blind man who never saw the
01:22:51.260
color red he cannot imagine a red cloud he cannot he never seen a cloud never seen the color red you
01:22:57.820
could talk to him all day about the color red you he could not deduce logically what the color red is
01:23:03.500
okay now let me contrast that with this idea okay i want you to imagine in your mind first i asked you to
01:23:10.620
imagine a yellow cloud and you were able to do it now i'm going to ask you to imagine in your mind
01:23:17.020
a copie a what a copie a copie yeah imagine that in your mind what is that nothing comes to mind
01:23:29.340
am i right yeah nothing you're blank right you're blank am i right i thought of like uh yeah nothing
01:23:37.020
but of colorado pie 3.14 and no i'm not talking about that that's nothing to do with it okay it's
01:23:44.060
just a made-up word so it's a made-up word okay there's nothing to associate it with
01:23:50.060
because i can't point to anything in the world and say look that's a copie
01:23:53.020
when i taught you when when you learned the word cloud you saw that's a cloud
01:23:58.140
when you saw the sun somebody said look that's the sun that's yellow that's orange that's a cat
01:24:03.580
that's a mouse that's a desk that's a tv that's a pencil we have to point to it right
01:24:11.020
everything in the universe that i talked to you about i have to show you an instance of it
01:24:14.780
except one thing when i say allah when i say god you know exactly what i'm talking about
01:24:24.380
you don't say oh what do you mean what is this i don't know what you're talking about
01:24:27.260
that's why i personally say there's no such thing as an atheist
01:24:30.060
in the quran it says calls them kafir kafir is they covered what did they cover
01:24:35.900
kafir it doesn't mean you know they translated as infidel infidel is not a correct translation it's not
01:24:40.940
a correct it's an incorrect translation it's convenient translation but it's a very shallow
01:24:46.140
one it's not a derogatory term it's not an insult kafir means just like oh that person he covered it
01:24:52.620
covered what is belief in god okay so in every heart every human heart which also heart means mind
01:25:01.500
we have this and we're born with this belief of god before you knew anything about red yellow clouds
01:25:07.980
mountains gold you already know about god you were born in the fitrah when i talk to you about
01:25:15.420
allah you already understand about allah i don't have to go and point to something and show you a
01:25:20.940
picture of god that's why we don't paint pictures of god because look what look what the greeks did the
0.91
01:25:27.180
greeks said they saw lightning lightning was really amazing they said oh you know what god lightning put the
01:25:33.020
two together i imagine zeus just like you put you took the the color yellow you took a cloud and you
01:25:39.980
made up something that doesn't exist in your mind you can make things up that don't exist okay but every
01:25:46.620
ingredient does exist so when i look at the cloud i see look there's a white cloud or a gray cloud
01:25:55.420
those exist out there in the world when i think of a yellow cloud in my mind i have to remember oh wait
01:25:59.980
a second yellow clouds they don't exist that's something that i took from seeing a yellow flower
01:26:05.500
and this cloud and i mixed it together in my mind and the quran is telling you the same thing
01:26:10.780
the quran is telling you when god creates adam he says look i taught you all the names of everything
01:26:21.260
adam when he's in the quran he's saying god taught him the names of everything okay like i just showed
01:26:26.620
like i just showed you when you were born we had to teach you the name of everything we had to show
01:26:31.020
you look this is a cat this is a dog we took we took the sound dog and we said look that that when i
01:26:38.700
say the sound dog i mean this thing here over here and then you saw enough instances of dogs you realize
01:26:44.540
okay the sound dog means something with furry with four with four legs and it barks okay that's what they
01:26:50.460
mean when they say the word dog if i show you a red octagon of a flat red octagon what does it mean to
01:27:00.460
you a flat red octagon what does that mean it means stop right you stop the car stop sign stop sign right
01:27:08.780
but we had to teach you look a red octagon means stop that's what we want we we associated red flat
01:27:14.540
octagons we associated s with the with the sounds and t with the sound we made it all up
01:27:24.060
we had to teach it to you there's nothing about a red octagon that means stop if i show you a chinese
0.99
01:27:28.620
character there's no way to deduce what it means somebody has to tell you what it means
01:27:35.500
so what i'm trying to what i'm trying to say is everything in the world we had to teach you except one
01:27:40.220
thing you already know allah when i talk to you about allah it strikes a nerve and it strikes a
01:27:48.700
chord within you that's why the quran says the believers when they hear the quran they're they
0.91
01:27:54.300
believe they heard it they're talking i'm talking to you about something you already know nobody had
01:27:59.740
to that's what ghazali says you don't have to be the world's most logical human being you don't
01:28:04.460
have to have an iq of 170 to understand allah understand you don't have to be you don't have
01:28:09.980
to do some kind of research experiment it's not something everybody knows god you understand so
01:28:16.220
basically you know we say this world is a test yeah but god gave you a test but he also put you on the
01:28:24.140
correct answer that's why we say god is the most gracious most merciful because i gave you a test and
01:28:31.020
the test you start on the right answer you can get the answer wrong but you started with the right
01:28:36.940
answer so think of think about this okay everything you ever had have in your head we had to teach it
01:28:44.140
to you except one thing i never told you about allah and i pointed to something a picture i never said
01:28:50.860
talked to you about allah and i showed you uh a man with a beard oh i took a picture of a man with a
01:28:57.660
beard and i mixed it with this idea that already exists within me what's the most arrogant thing
01:29:03.420
to do is to take a picture of yourself and mix it with the idea of god you know when you go to japan
01:29:09.180
jesus is japanese when you go to africa he's african when you go to china he's chinese when you go to
01:29:14.700
india he's india when you go to america he's white there's a lot of people that get really upset when you
01:29:19.740
say jesus wasn't white or isn't white he's still they get very angry and it's like the whole idea is
01:29:27.100
ridiculous because they say white is european but this guy wasn't european you know he's like we
01:29:32.780
we know where he was from we know where he's palestinian yeah well come on he's palestinian
0.97
01:29:39.100
are you palestinian he was palestinian no i'm lebanese you're lebanese okay i'm lebanese which is
01:29:44.060
very similar i went there i went to the neck of the way i went uh a couple months ago replace yeah i
01:29:49.740
like lebanese people quite a bit well thank you that's great very mixed very mixed place there's a lot
01:29:54.780
of christians a lot of jews there's jews there a lot yeah yeah yeah very diverse yeah we yeah we're
01:30:01.340
diverse a set of people for sure why do you know what i'm saying sorry go ahead i was saying why
01:30:07.340
were you saying uh jesus is palestine because that's also controversial people said the land at the time
01:30:11.740
was in palestine that it was he's from nazareth which was well he's from that region he's from that
01:30:17.820
region right he's from that he's a middle easterner so he was he looked like me he had my skin color he
01:30:23.820
had our genetics i'm from the same genetics okay i'm because don't forget genetics doesn't
01:30:30.300
there's no such thing as i don't want to get too deep in this but genetics it just tells you what
01:30:33.980
region you're from there's no real thing as a race okay race is just like where did your genetics
01:30:41.660
hail from in terms of region but that's that's a another topic for another day but basically
01:30:47.820
he's from the middle eastern region jesus there's no debate on this he was probably very similar to my
01:30:58.700
so but like like i was saying i mean the quran also gives this example of of understanding god okay
01:31:07.500
so think about this okay when you were in your mother's womb
01:31:11.900
you didn't know sneeko sneeko didn't exist the name sneeko didn't exist we had to teach you the name
01:31:19.180
sneeko right when you're in your mother's womb you didn't know the dunya you don't know yellow green
01:31:26.780
tasty sweet sugar bitter you don't know uh what it's like to stub your toe you don't know any of this
01:31:32.540
you didn't even know you exist you had no ego you know even psychology they say
01:31:40.860
the ego forms a little bit before the age of one the ego means there's me and then there's the world
01:31:46.780
i'm separate from the world there's people out there and there's me you start realizing there's a
01:31:52.620
person called me okay there's this thing me the formation of the ego when the baby comes out the
01:31:58.220
baby doesn't even have ego but what does the baby have the baby has this innate this point of um
01:32:07.820
this point of awareness a oneness a fitra just a pure perfect fitra some people disagree i mean
01:32:16.380
christians believe that we're born with original sin that we're born sinners and we need to be
01:32:22.060
forgiven and baptized for sins that we did not commit right so if i commit a crime why shouldn't they arrest
01:32:28.060
my wife and my kids would they do that is that fair if i commit a crime if i commit a crime should
01:32:36.300
they go arrest my brother no is that is that christian justice that doesn't make sense why not
01:32:43.340
because why not it's not your son yeah but why then why am i punished for adam's sin that's what i like
01:32:48.780
to ask them i would say look if adam created a sin adam and eve created a sim alayhi sanam why are we
01:32:54.700
why are we in trouble for that what i guess the answer is where it's the difference between human
01:33:02.780
nature and law maybe you can't apply legal uh legal moral ideas to human nature
01:33:13.580
explain i mean okay are you saying that i'm gonna sin one day okay that's possible but
01:33:18.620
if if a newborn baby is born is he born with a sin he doesn't he doesn't even know he exists he doesn't
01:33:23.820
even know his name he doesn't know how to move his finger what is he is he born with is he born
01:33:29.420
clean slate or is he is he a sin i believe i've never looked at a baby and thought that's a sinner
01:33:36.060
like he needs to be i've never seen a baby and thought he needs to be forgiven for stuff he didn't do
01:33:41.980
i i think everyone can look at a baby and like the way they smile they have a purity in their face where
01:33:47.580
they're not eventually when people have evil thoughts and do evil actions it wears down on
01:33:52.780
their face and you can see it and they become a different like their appearance is different you
01:33:57.340
can see it a baby you look at it you can see purity that's something that's indisputable it's it's hard
01:34:03.180
to argue that but that's why i've never believed in i i agree with you i agree with you but i understand
01:34:07.580
some christians they say no the sin is passed down and and it's inherent so it's in our dna and but
01:34:22.220
if if let's say my son does something wrong should i punish his little brother
01:34:30.060
that's what i ask christians should i punish his little brother should i punish his little sister
01:34:34.860
should i punish the neighbor they had nothing to do with that's why that's why i ask christians you
01:34:40.860
know how could we say that there's original sin because that would mean i would make sense for me to
01:34:45.500
punish all my children for one of my children's uh transgressions and if you read the old testament
01:34:52.700
the old testament says you know one person won't take the sin of another so there's a there's a type of
01:35:00.540
uh inconsistency there you know so a new narrative was born after when when the jesus christ story
01:35:05.980
happened and they were trying to explain why because a lot of people say look they were just
01:35:10.700
trying to explain why somebody's so good but have something so so bad happen to him so if you look at
01:35:18.380
the jesus christ story is this you know they depict him as this sinless man perfect man god man and then
01:35:25.020
they say look the worst thing happened to the best person why would that why does why do bad things happen to
01:35:30.460
good people while we say oh it's a fitna that's our explanation it's a fitna it's a trial it's going
01:35:36.620
to show your true colors you're not going to are you are you only are you only happy and joyous and
01:35:42.380
patient and loving when things are good or when things are bad you're still loyal loving worshiping god
01:35:52.220
etc well we won't know until we test you right okay that's the muslim paradigm and the christian paradigm
0.97
01:35:59.420
it's because well that happened to jesus because all of you sinned you're all bad you're all evil
01:36:04.780
you're all this happened because of the whole human all of humanity basically so that's how they try to
01:36:14.060
explain it i've realized that there's a lot of christians get really i'm seeing it in the chat
01:36:18.860
note too someone said uh this is pissing me off christ is king i've come to the realization there's so
01:36:24.620
many i've i've trying to relax on this because it just like it creates a lot of division and people
01:36:30.620
get angry and people like having i think people like to have faith and it blends it to blind faith
01:36:37.500
where they like to believe without going into the logic or go into the philosophy behind it they when
01:36:43.020
you when they start to hear this conversation there's a blockade and they don't want to transcend that
01:36:47.820
level of logic so i i've seen it that's why i've even dialed back my language i'll try not to say
01:36:55.100
uh allah say god so that people so that they think it's the same they don't get confused they don't get
01:37:00.540
angry right but the christian the christian arabs say allah i know so alhamdulillah too so it's just
01:37:08.060
it's just an arabic word for god they don't most people don't know that they they still don't know that
01:37:13.820
right like even some of my close friends uh for example actually i just brought when i brought
01:37:18.220
aiden ross to the mosque he's like you guys don't believe in god you believe in allah right
01:37:22.860
you didn't know i have people they don't think that we believe in god they think that allah is like a
01:37:28.300
different entity it's like a muslim guy it's like a i think they picture like a guy in the taliban that's
01:37:33.900
our that's god yeah there's a lot of misconceptions but look i i always like i i dialogue with christians if
01:37:42.940
they're open-minded i continue if they're not open-minded i just close the door and let them be
01:37:47.180
because not everybody wants to dialogue not everybody wants to examine their their beliefs
01:37:51.260
but the door is there you know we're in the age of the internet now if you want to examine your
01:37:55.580
beliefs you want to do your research the door is open i mean there's no there's no limitations now to
01:38:01.820
to learning access to information so you know i like to dialogue with with people who are open-minded
01:38:08.700
and i like to listen and i like to think about things i like to listen to their arguments as well
01:38:13.260
but we have a back and forth and as long as it's friendly and done in the right way because i think
01:38:17.180
religion should always be friendly and done in the correct way like i saw your video with shmuli and i
01:38:23.980
find like shmuli i wouldn't be able to talk to him for more than one second why because he right away
01:38:29.180
starts with insults propaganda ad hominems like he's a bad example of religion like he's wearing the
0.89
01:38:38.300
the kippah and all that look i think there's bad examples in every religion okay but he's such a
01:38:44.060
vile version and i i have a lot of jewish friends that are good honest people you could sit down with
01:38:49.740
them have a rational discussion um there's good there's good and bad in every religion okay but
01:38:57.980
he's such a bad example i told him my opinion i told him that i feel bad for jews because he's the
0.92
01:39:03.900
worst representation of jews that could possibly the worst he like embodies all the anti-semitic
0.99
01:39:08.940
stereotypes in one even though you know you're an actual semite that words anti-semitic gets thrown
01:39:14.700
around for polish people regardless i'm more jewish than him by the way i'm more jewish than him i'm
01:39:19.340
more semitic than he is yeah i believe in the afterlife you know he doesn't believe in the
01:39:23.740
afterlife he did a debate with hitchens where he's like oh the afterlife is just basically how your kids
01:39:28.540
remember you what are you talking about man if you read maimonides maimonides the greatest jewish
01:39:33.740
thinker it's a prerequisite if you have to believe in the resurrection if you don't you're not a jew
0.87
01:39:38.780
according to maimonides now maimonides okay you don't have to agree with him you could say oh we don't
01:39:43.420
agree with him fine but he's the guy who defined what a jew is he's the greatest thinker in jewish
01:39:50.140
history are you really that jewish well i'm i would tell you maimonides thinks i'm more jewish than you
01:39:55.260
i believe in all your prophets i believe in the resurrection i believe in god i believe the the
01:40:00.220
next life is literal and you're here saying to hitchens oh well maybe the afterlife is just a
01:40:07.180
it's just how your kids remember you kind of thing you know it's just like a uh a capitulation
01:40:13.500
a complete capitulation he he threw out the torah basically like he's such a bad example and somebody
1.00
01:40:19.420
explain to me how on earth he's sitting his granddaughter down and touching her
01:40:27.180
in a way that's completely like absurd abhorrent and nobody criticized him for nobody's putting cuffs
01:40:35.660
on this guy nobody's uh reviewing what the hell what the hell somebody explained that he's touching her
01:40:41.340
at the in her chest region he's caressing her what how insane is that how does he get away with it
01:40:49.820
it's not even like he's a religious leader you're acting like he's just like a random jew who's
0.93
01:40:55.660
become an israeli apologist he's a spokesperson and a leader in the community and he sells dildos
01:41:01.420
with his daughter i called him out on this i i'm wondering what did you think of that debate because
01:41:05.500
it was pretty impromptu and i didn't expect it to happen i didn't want it i i i think i listened to
01:41:12.220
maybe like my fans were asking me to listen to it so i turned it on for a few minutes but it's just
01:41:16.700
pure schmooly like when the when you're this guy stepped in he's like oh you want to attack me and he
01:41:22.780
starts making a huge debate like okay dude first of all sneaker doesn't need protection first of all
01:41:30.540
you you probably slap him and knock him out with one slap but like he's like oh you need this guy
01:41:35.740
to protect you now oh wow you guys want to threaten me now this is all this like it's just like he's the
0.51
01:41:41.580
don king of like just like promoting the most vile aspect of human dialogue like the the best like
01:41:54.060
if you if you bought two religious people from two different faiths and they really believe in god
01:42:00.140
i think they're gonna have a humble dialogue they're gonna think about right and wrong morality
01:42:08.380
that shall not kill that shall not murder that shall not lie like how could you how could you
01:42:15.340
speak in that way and think oh i i know i believe in god i represent god here because you know the
01:42:19.980
thing is people say the jews are the chosen people yeah they were chosen to be a light upon the world
01:42:26.060
what's a light upon the world to teach morality to the world i took age in judaism like i studied in
01:42:31.900
university there was supposed to be a light onto the world that's their mission what does it mean a
01:42:38.300
light onto the world teach people don't lie don't cheat don't steal you know be humble like they were
01:42:43.980
supposed to be a good example um shmuley is not doing that you know shmuley is propagating arguing
01:42:51.340
screaming at the top of his lungs that he's being always attacked by these anti-semites which is like
01:42:57.580
absurd you know they'll call you anti-semite but they won't call you a liar where where did i lie
0.82
01:43:04.140
where where did i go wrong factually where where's no you're an anti-semite no no wait a second why am
0.97
01:43:09.340
i an anti-semite why am i an anti-semite if i get attacked by a chinese guy and i defend myself am i
0.67
01:43:14.860
anti-chinese am i am i anti-asian am i am i racist of some sort if a bad guy attacks me and i defend myself am
01:43:20.700
am i racist where is it that we're factually wrong where is the argument breakdown he never
01:43:27.740
brings that up he's always just constantly talking about i mean we'd have to bring it up i didn't
01:43:33.340
memorize the the dialogue but i just remember it's pure shmuley all the time i'm the victim here i'm
01:43:39.100
being attacked look at he's just like he thinks we're so dumb that it's convincing he thinks he can
01:43:44.700
convince us with such stupid arguments it's it's wild actually i don't i wouldn't mind i don't know
0.97
01:43:49.340
know if you know how to play it right now it'd be funny to to kind of listen to it because you want
0.99
01:43:52.700
to his arguments are always ad hominem you're evil you're bad and that's why you're against me he's
01:43:57.980
never actually debating any points yeah i can bring it up here uh but i think it's very funny because i
01:44:05.580
um i could show it here uh you sent me one of his videos earlier what was i i didn't get the chance to
01:44:12.220
see it yet oh you should play that video if you have it you can play it right when he praises islam
01:44:17.420
basically he loves islam really he's gonna say something yeah he says something about islam that
01:44:22.940
most people don't know about we can talk a little bit about the history of islam i think people might
01:44:28.380
find it interesting okay we'll see some of it i've played it on stream before i think there might be a
01:44:34.860
little but yeah basically he goes in let's go from here
01:44:44.220
do you find it difficult to speak about these subjects in the mma world did you get pushed back
01:44:48.140
do you get called racist no no no no no i i i don't i i only talk about people i only talk about
01:44:55.260
things that people ask me about like i won't bring it up if people are not like you know if we're talking
01:44:59.500
if we're in an mma settings and we're talking fighting i'm not going to bring a religion we're
0.73
01:45:04.540
talking about fighting but i have a channel where we talk about fitness mma boxing jiu-jitsu and then
01:45:10.140
it's asking me anything so people often ask me about religion and logic and philosophy because
01:45:14.140
that's what i studied actually i kind of don't want to hear his voice it's very important
01:45:21.740
by the way he has the friends and family discount everybody let me tell you something
0.93
01:45:25.980
are you calling me disgusting you sell dildos with your daughter let me tell you something
0.99
01:45:29.260
you sell dildos with your daughter no sir i saw you dance on a child at a wedding
1.00
01:45:32.940
no sir no work on children well you believe you have a mom and pop shop with your daughter killers
01:45:38.540
do i when did i say that you said we did 9-11 okay yeah i don't really want to hear his voice
01:45:45.500
to be honest with you um all right no problem several times a play if you if you can't play that
01:45:50.460
clip i sent you let's see this one it's an interesting one okay this is a debate
01:46:03.180
and i'm amazed muslims don't bring this up like they don't they don't drive this point home i mean
0.97
01:46:13.420
uh he's kind of i don't like to talk about his personal faith because he likes to keep it private
01:46:17.420
yeah but uh you know he's the he's he's a he's a searcher let's just say okay did shalom
01:46:25.100
he looks he looks very coherent i think i have seen this before he seems very coherent compared
01:46:30.220
to how he was in the debate did shalom in the home how do you regard the breakdown of communities and
01:46:34.380
for example how do you how do you regard you know islam in the muslim world nowadays it's been very
01:46:38.620
negatively stereotyped well look i'm actually interestingly enough as an orthodox you're a great
01:46:44.140
champion of islam bring it up myself can you hear it no i don't hear anything uh there's a share screen
01:46:52.620
if you see on the on the icon it says um i think you need to allow it oh where's that um
01:47:02.140
they can they i think they're able to hear it but it's a short video
01:47:07.900
i'll play for them because they can hear the fact is that the jewish community has a real debt to the
01:47:12.620
islamic community because when we were kicked out of catholic spain in 1492 when we were kicked out of
01:47:19.820
catholic portugal i think in 1503 it was the muslims who took the jews in that's why there are jewish
1.00
01:47:24.460
communities in the islamic world till this very day the islamic community the jewish community of
01:47:28.300
istanbul dates from then um it was it was specifically uh countries uh not beyond the ottoman empire
01:47:36.460
where jews were tolerated uh and they were welcomed in and they they played they paid a jizya there was a
01:47:41.580
poll tax they paid but they were never persecuted and there wasn't a holocaust in the islam so he
01:47:44.940
admits that there was no holocaust and that muslims jews were able to coexist and that muslims even
01:47:49.260
defended and took in the jews we are not anti-semitic semitic the look islam saved the jews
01:47:57.820
islam saved jewry you know that's their quote from david wasserstein david wasserstein he teaches
01:48:05.980
jewish studies he said look if it wasn't for muslim conquest it's very likely judaism wouldn't
1.00
01:48:11.740
exist okay because you had the romans you had the persians they didn't allow mingling of jewish
0.97
01:48:17.340
people they suppressed jewish people when islam took over those two empires the jewish people can
01:48:22.460
now live freely as the means okay protected people the me is a protected person now israel excuse me
01:48:30.380
jewish people flourished every time islam flourished david wasserstein says judaism flourished
01:48:36.940
they coincided the golden age of islam was the golden age of judaism the jews did well under islam
0.54
01:48:42.860
they they survived and they thrived under christianity they were being eradicated what is
01:48:50.700
shmuley saying he's saying look the muslims from catholic spain they rescued the jews the ottomans
0.61
01:48:56.940
rescued the jews how can we be anti-semitic it's impossible first of all we can marry jewish women
1.00
01:49:03.340
how are you going to be anti-semitic your in-laws and your wife is going to be jewish it's an
0.70
01:49:07.740
absurdity and there's shmuley in that video admitting that not only did the jews rest excuse
0.78
01:49:13.820
me that muslims rescue the jews there was never a holocaust in the jewish world excuse me in the
01:49:19.660
muslim world the friction that started between muslims and jews was the start of israel because
01:49:27.660
the muslims were like hey you guys don't want to use you want to use europeans the europeans to attack us
1.00
01:49:35.580
because don't forget the europeans were trying to eradicate the jews
0.93
01:49:40.220
we rescued them they lived under muslim rule for hundreds of years hundreds and hundreds of years
01:49:45.260
nearly a thousand years okay then in modern era last hundred years they flipped on us
01:49:51.980
they sided with the europeans to fight us but for 800 years they're living under our rule protected from
0.74
01:50:00.540
europe it's the europeans that wanted to eradicate them it's the christians that wanted to eradicate
0.98
01:50:07.020
them you had catholic spain okay catholic spain wanted to literally murder it's called the spanish
0.98
01:50:12.940
inquisition look it up okay they wanted to murder every single jew the founder of the protestant
0.67
01:50:19.740
religion martin luther read what he says about the jews he says look we tried to convert them they
0.96
01:50:26.380
don't want to convert you have to eradicate every one of them burn everything they built if you can't
1.00
01:50:31.180
burn it bury everything they built get rid of every single one of them why the christians say that
0.99
01:50:38.540
they're responsible for the death of christ
0.96
01:50:44.220
if you read the gospel of matthew matthew is saying the blood is on your hands and your
01:50:49.020
children the blood of who the blood of christ the blood of jesus christ is on i don't believe this
01:50:55.420
you don't believe this we don't believe this okay the christians at the time interpreted it as
01:51:01.900
they're the ones who killed jesus christ all of them not one of them not the group at that time
01:51:09.820
all of them because it says the blood is on your hands and your children now
01:51:15.980
if you read the quran the quran exonerates the jews
1.00
01:51:22.940
so here's what people don't know okay a lot of people don't know this but
01:51:25.900
you have the old testament and you have the new testament the new testament is blaming
01:51:30.780
the jewish people for the death of christ they call it the greatest crime in history
1.00
01:51:38.060
then after a while the jews started writing the talmud the talmud
01:51:43.420
is a jewish book written by rabbis who some say is even higher than the torah
01:51:47.740
okay in the talmud it says yes jesus came and yes we we killed him we put him up on a
0.56
01:51:58.220
uh uh crucifix not not true not a crucifix but they say like a stick okay they they hung him
01:52:04.460
okay they stole them they hung them for blasphemy and they say that he he's now burning in hell and
01:52:10.540
an excrement and that his mother was pregnant his mother uh got pregnant by a roman soldier that's
0.89
01:52:19.020
what really happened so they insult they insult jesus okay so you have to understand the dynamic
0.94
01:52:28.700
now you have the old testament then you have the new testament the new testament says the people of
01:52:33.500
the old testament are responsible for this crime murdering jesus then you have the talmud that admits
0.95
01:52:39.180
to the crime the christians are saying we you guys killed christ the jews killed christ and then
01:52:49.660
the talmud is saying yes we killed christ okay you follow the quran says this is what the quran is
1.00
01:52:57.500
saying the quran comes after the talmud the quran is saying the jews are boasting about killing christ
01:53:04.380
okay because if you read the verse about the about the crucifixion it says the jews say
0.82
01:53:15.020
jesus son of mary the messiah oh yeah we killed him okay we we crucified him we killed him now the
0.91
01:53:21.180
quran says it's not true no they didn't crucify him nor did they kill him so the quran is saying even
1.00
01:53:27.820
though some scriptures or some jews claim they killed him it's not true they're not responsible
0.97
01:53:34.380
for the greatest crime in history why were the jews by the way why were the jews hated so much throughout
01:53:39.180
history uh holocaust genocides pogroms why were they hunted down all because of the christian
01:53:47.420
interpretation that they're responsible for the worst crime in history what's the worst crime in history
01:53:53.820
the blood of christ killing god he shed the blood of christ what's that killing god killing god
0.94
01:54:02.700
the quran is saying they did not kill god even if they say they did they didn't what did that do
0.96
01:54:08.700
what did that do that exonerates them in our tradition the jews not criminal he's not a criminal
01:54:15.980
he's not responsible for murdering god you can't even say this well how could him how could a group of
01:54:21.820
people murder god it's impossible to us right so islam muslims didn't have a view that these people
1.00
01:54:29.100
need to be hunted down or whatnot now again i want to stress something really important that was an
0.97
01:54:34.140
interpretation at a time where christians had a dark interpretation okay they literally wanted to hunt
01:54:41.660
down every last a jewish person okay now today christians don't think that they don't interpret
01:54:47.260
things the same way okay so i want to be clear on that there was a time where select
01:54:53.180
influencers in christianity interpreted that way and you can interpret it that way because they did
01:55:00.940
islam always interpreted as they're not responsible for the death of christ it's literally explicitly
01:55:07.660
expressed in the quran it's the jews boasting they killed christ and then the quran refuting them
0.73
01:55:12.700
saying no you didn't crucify him nor did you kill him but the quran does say that the jews killed some
01:55:18.220
prophets yes but not christ nobody's hunting down uh the jews for killing prophets or
01:55:27.420
not obeying moses it's literally for this one event because they say hey you killed god
01:55:40.220
so what i'm trying to tell you is in history islam exonerates the jews we never had a holocaust you
0.87
01:55:48.140
heard shmuley say it himself i don't know i didn't hear it but i hope your your your listeners can hear
01:55:52.780
it look shmuley says look we we owe great debt in the video he's saying we owe great debt to the muslim
01:55:58.860
world why they protected us during catholic spain they never had a holocaust we thrived under their
0.58
01:56:04.300
their reign you should read the works of david wasserstein david wasserstein explains more
01:56:10.460
reasons on why the muslims protected and saved the jews okay don't forget when the
01:56:15.500
when the jewish people were being persecuted by the christians the ottomans sent ships to rescue the
01:56:22.220
jews why because to us they're dhimmi they are protected people they're in our book okay so it's a
01:56:28.300
very very important thing and a lot of people don't know uh about the conquest of jerusalem when jerusalem
01:56:33.260
here's what people have to know okay basic history basic basic history
01:56:39.180
the jews were kicked out of jerusalem in the year 70 by the romans
01:56:50.220
the jews lived under the roman rule and they were being crushed and persecuted and tortured and
01:56:56.060
women their women being raped and just abducted they caesar wanted to put a statue of himself in the in
01:57:01.580
the temple that's where the jews draw the line you won't put a statue of caesar in the temple
0.53
01:57:10.140
you had a group called the sakari the sakari were a jewish group they carried a blade the blade was a
01:57:17.500
sakari blade okay they called it the sakari this blade they were the hamas of the day
0.65
01:57:22.380
a sakari was hamas the jews had a group called sakari you could call them hamas okay because
01:57:32.940
you know what hamas means like you know what you know what a zealot is a zealot somebody who's
01:57:39.100
very religious somebody who like takes it to an extreme okay
01:57:41.900
the zealots was a name for a certain group of jews okay because these sakari they're also called
01:57:49.340
zealots i don't want to make it complicated in the year 70 rome was on top of the jews they were
0.99
01:57:56.300
crushing the jews they were trying to get the jews to capitulate and worship caesar
0.99
01:58:01.660
the jews didn't want to worship caesar they rather fight to the bitter end and worship caesar
0.92
01:58:10.460
the sakari were saying we won't negotiate with rome we won't do diplomacy
0.79
01:58:16.940
and even the jews who would do diplomacy with the romans they would get killed by the sakari so you had
0.99
01:58:21.820
jews even killing jewish people got extremist jews is what i'm trying to say hardcore extremist jews
1.00
01:58:28.220
that said look we got to liberate uh israel or sorry jerusalem at the time from any roman influence
0.96
01:58:35.420
whatsoever we got to eradicate the romans we got to get them out they were extreme then you had more
01:58:43.180
moderate jews who were like hey we could live together let's just make rules where we don't
1.00
01:58:46.780
have to worship caesar etc in the year 70 the romans expelled the jews they burned their temple
01:58:57.580
now when you go to jerusalem today you see the jews they they have something they refer to as the
01:59:02.780
wailing wall you see the jews praying to the wall yeah i see people like floyd mayweather they go up
0.73
01:59:07.580
and they yes yes yes floyd will do anything for money but that's a topic for another day floyd if you
01:59:13.020
got the money man he'll kiss anything he'll wail to any wall don't worry tomorrow if you have money
01:59:17.580
he's gonna put on he's gonna go to the mosque and pray don't worry if you more money he'll put on a
01:59:21.740
cross and go to the church even more money you'll go to india it's every american politician it's just
01:59:28.060
a funny picture of them yeah but it's all about money money money money but you see that wall you
01:59:32.300
see that wall that's the last surviving wall in the year 70 the romans burned down the temple
01:59:38.300
they crushed the temple that's the one wall remaining
01:59:42.700
so that wall is really old it's two thousand plus years old two thousand years ago they burned down
01:59:52.060
the jewish temple and they kicked out all the jews
0.96
01:59:56.620
you know what they did with that that space where the temple used to be they turned it into a garbage
0.88
02:00:01.500
site because later the rome converts to christianity and the christians turned the temple of the jews into
1.00
02:00:08.700
a garbage site now the muslims come and conquer jerusalem
1.00
02:00:16.860
about over 500 years later the muslims come and they conquer jerusalem
1.00
02:00:20.940
omar the ottomans which which umpire no no no no the sahaba the sahaba omar
02:00:26.300
i'll send you a really good lecture from a non-muslim who details all of this
0.98
02:00:33.100
all of this okay now you have to understand something about muslim conquest muslim conquest
02:00:37.260
is very different okay especially when we say the rightly guided khalifa because
0.80
02:00:41.740
later on muslims did wrong bad things that are not sunnah okay but the sunnah when muslims conquer
0.97
02:00:47.580
they're rightly guided if you do it by the book if you do it by the religious standards
0.92
02:00:52.060
you don't expel the people when omar ibn khattab conquered jerusalem he didn't
02:00:58.540
kill any civilians he only expelled the politicians that's it and he allowed them to take their gold
02:01:06.460
and their riches whatever they can carry you can leave but the the the politicians had to go the
0.96
02:01:13.180
government has to go they only fight wars against the government the sunnah you can only fight wars
02:01:19.500
against the government not the people the people are innocent
02:01:22.220
the people are dhimmi there are protected people very different than israel's tactics today
02:01:28.860
exactly exactly we fight the government that's why i don't agree with hamas hamas was shooting at
02:01:34.220
civilians as well but that's another topic okay because i think there's war crimes on both sides
02:01:38.460
allegedly well okay well we'll talk about that because i think there is there is some uh atrocities
02:01:44.700
that we have that have to be admitted to okay but we'll talk about that yeah
02:01:47.420
omar ibn khattab he conquers jerusalem in the year 70 yeah sorry not the year 70 500 plus years after
02:01:56.380
the year 70 okay so nearly more than 500 years passes the muslims finally arrive they conquer jerusalem
0.99
02:02:04.380
what happens omar ibn khattab asks them to show him where is the temple of the jews and they show it to
02:02:11.980
him and it's a garbage site omar ibn khattab the sahaba of the prophet he walked with the prophet
0.92
02:02:19.500
every day he was with the prophet every day when he saw it was a garbage site he went and he started
0.54
02:02:26.220
clearing the garbage out with his own hands now don't forget at the time he's the world's most powerful
02:02:30.540
man don't forget at this time right now the muslims are the most powerful nation in the world
0.97
02:02:38.300
he's cleaning out the garbage with his own hand all the muslims start cleaning out the temple
1.00
02:02:44.940
and what did the what did the muslims do omar ibn khattab ordered a colony of jews to return
0.95
02:02:51.820
to jerusalem he brought back the jews to jerusalem who brought back the jews to jerusalem
1.00
02:02:58.780
muslims it's the muslims so they should return the favor the jews were expelled for over 500 years they
1.00
02:03:04.860
couldn't go to jerusalem for 500 years who brought them back the the jews always were successful
0.92
02:03:13.660
when islam was successful always every islamic success resulted in a jewish success that's not my
1.00
02:03:20.860
words that's david wasserstein's words a professor of jewish studies islam protected and made way for the
02:03:28.220
jewish people why did he bring back the jews because they're part of our religion we believe
02:03:35.260
in their prophets their akita is very close to ours what do you think about that did you know any of
02:03:42.620
this by the way but then why so if their akita was very similar then why does rabbi shmuley and ben
02:03:48.860
shapiro the two instances where they have a completely different faith so ben shapiro saw trump won the
02:03:54.940
election he says well he tweets well done god rabbi shmuley when talking about october 7th on the day
02:04:01.100
of the election he's like god was sleeping on october 7th so we don't believe in that like we leave
02:04:07.260
everything happens for a reason that god has a plan but the way that they talk about god it's like
02:04:12.940
it's like god is an employee for them like he works when he does a good job well done you think they
02:04:18.540
believe in god i think so i think they believe in their god i believe i believe look i believe every
02:04:24.060
human in their heart of hearts believes in god but do you think they have do you think they
02:04:29.900
they think about god they're always in a forgetful state yeah they use god as a weapon it's a talking
02:04:36.860
point it's a weapon it's a cult look israel was founded not by believers it was founded by secular
02:04:43.100
individuals that they call it a jewish state but jewish to them doesn't mean religion anymore
02:04:50.540
them jewish means you're born a certain race it's an ethnicity and a religion but you don't have to
02:04:56.220
practice a religion you can be an atheist and be a jew in their mind yeah like seth rogan hollywood
02:05:01.740
jews all these people i would argue that a lot of these their religion with their faith and their belief
02:05:06.460
what they think about more is the holocaust they they put more faith into that than they do into
02:05:12.140
anything that is written in the torah right that's why i say look i'm more jewish than rabbi
02:05:16.780
shmuley i actually literally believe in god i'm actually semitic i'm more semitic than than netanyahu
02:05:22.460
that's for sure i would love to see a dna test from netanyahu i want to see if his blood is more
02:05:27.420
semitic than mine i i bet anything it's not dna tests are banned in israel for this reason no exactly
02:05:33.180
exactly but look i also understand they're they're culturally and traditionally jewish you don't have
02:05:37.820
to be genetically jewish they're the ones who are saying that they're saying look your
02:05:41.820
mother has to be from a jewish line it has to go back to abraham but their line doesn't go back
02:05:47.020
to abraham they were the the they mixed culture with genetics so look religion is two two things
02:05:54.780
okay sorry jewishism is two things it's a culture and it's a religion it's an ethnicity and it's a
02:06:01.020
religion we're conflating the two things all the time all the time and you know uh was it ben
02:06:06.700
i'm forgetting the founder of israel now he was saying look there's no exact definition for jew okay
02:06:15.020
so what's a jew it's what we tell you is a jew so they're not going by the the text they're not going
0.99
02:06:20.700
by the torah they're going by what they see fit so for instance if you're a jew and you want to be
02:06:26.060
atheist that's fine if you convert to islam you you lose your citizenship if you convert to christianity
0.98
02:06:30.780
you're done so but he's ethnically jewish he's born from a jewish mother no it doesn't matter you
02:06:36.380
convert it to one of those two religions you're done atheists will accept you
0.99
02:06:42.220
so it's not really a religion anymore it's become something else you know it's it's a it's
02:06:47.020
a type of culture genetic religion race it's a blend of everything so they tell us what's a jew okay
02:06:55.100
so they tell us well now i don't i have a definition of jew i i think a definition of jew is one you
02:06:59.820
believe in god that's i honestly i think i don't think you can be an atheistic jew i think that's
02:07:04.380
an oxymoron it doesn't exist you're culturally jewish you claim to be jewish but for me that's
02:07:09.580
very superficial judasim very superficial you don't believe in god i don't know if shmuli believes in
02:07:15.580
god honestly like not in his in his everyday behavior like i couldn't behave like that because i'd be
02:07:22.300
worried that i'm i'm angering god you have fear he doesn't have fear for god i have a fear of allah i
02:07:27.740
have a fear of god you know he's touching his daughter and he's dancing exactly like you're
0.98
02:07:33.180
a rabbi man you're selling uh sex toys with your daughter you're putting your daughter up like she
1.00
02:07:38.300
has like look there's nothing wrong with sex sex is a perfectly halal thing if you're doing it with
0.99
02:07:43.420
your wife whatnot but have some shame you're trying to promote like sex toys and so things that
1.00
02:07:50.220
so what separates a real jew from a muslim because they're monotheistic are they not
0.98
02:07:56.140
and it seems like they have like you said real jews of course so yeah what's the difference between a
0.60
02:08:01.500
jew and a muscle well look here's the thing okay some some jews believe in muhammad alayhi salam
02:08:07.900
some of them do but they say this okay look what they say they say muhammad was for the gentile
02:08:16.060
muhammad alayhi salam is for the gentile because look you have abraham right alayhi salam
02:08:20.860
he had two women hagar and sarah hagar gave birth to isaac hagar gave birth to ishmael
02:08:31.100
prophet muhammad comes from ishmael alayhi salam
02:08:35.900
the jewish line comes from isaac alayhi salam we're two lines from the same man
02:08:41.820
prophet abraham you understand we're two half brothers we're literally half brothers
02:08:47.900
now in the bible it says tells abraham it commands abraham take ishmael alayhi salam and take him to
02:08:54.860
the desert now where he takes him in the desert the bible describes is where is saudi arabia today
02:09:02.700
and abraham prays for ishmael and he says don't worry about ishmael
02:09:06.780
i'm going to make him a great nation like you see the stars that's how many descendants you're
02:09:10.940
going to have don't worry about ishmael i'm going to make him a great nation the bible is promising that
02:09:17.020
ishmael is going to be a great nation what nation came out of saudi arabia there's only one
02:09:25.180
the prophet's nation alayhi salam islam and how many are we were like the number of the stars
02:09:30.780
they can't deny we exist from their lineage you can't you can't deny it because either the prophecy
02:09:37.420
is not true it never happened it did obviously there's a great nation from saudi arabia that's us
02:09:42.620
and guess what we believe in one god we keep the tor we keep the the law of the you know we keep the
02:09:47.820
ten commandments you know we believe in the torah you know it's a complex topic but we believe in the
02:09:53.260
essence of the torah we believe in the injil we believe in all the prophets we believe in the other
0.94
02:09:58.140
side the lineage of isaac we believe in isaac we're part of the same monotheistic faith that
02:10:08.140
goes back to abraham alayhi salam understand so they can't deny us in this this event so the jews
02:10:14.380
a lot of jews will tell you will say look we believe muhammad was sent by god because he's from
02:10:19.820
the lineage of ishmael they have the correct understanding i'll send you quotes from rabbis
02:10:25.020
to tell you look the only other religion that worships god like we do is islam i have i'll send
0.99
02:10:33.420
you many quotes from rabbis saying that there's only one other religion like judaism it worships god
02:10:40.060
correctly that understands monotheism and it's islam so why are they not why are they not muslim
02:10:46.540
because they say they say in our book we're promised to this law this sharia we have to maintain
02:10:54.700
it forever it's an eternal covenant so they're saying that's a correct sharia also but that's for
0.98
02:11:02.380
his sharia ishmael's sharia okay a different lineage so so prophet muhammad there's two moses
02:11:09.260
there's two men that are there's the second moses is muhammad alayhi salam we have a covenant with
02:11:15.900
muhammad we're on this line you're on the other line they're both good they're both true
02:11:20.380
understand so is that an analogy that's the argument that's the argument i don't agree with
02:11:26.940
it you don't agree i'm not saying i agree with it okay no i don't agree with it so do you believe
02:11:30.060
that that's the argument people i think they were chosen to give us the law don't lie don't cheat don't
02:11:38.700
steal but some if if you don't follow the law you you you you you failed the test you failed your
02:11:50.620
um your endeavor you failed your mission and it's not they failed the mission so you believe
02:11:55.660
now the jews who failed the test the chosen people who teach don't lie don't cheat don't steal
02:12:03.020
and if their hearts they look it's it's complicated so basically i think that if you
02:12:08.540
if you it depends on what knowledge how much knowledge you have how much you understand how
02:12:13.820
you look if you're an honest person you can do no wrong i'll give you for instance okay i'll give
02:12:17.980
you we have a hadith we have a famous hadith okay let me give you a hadith
02:12:22.540
this man tells his children look when i when i die uh incinerate me uh turn me to ash
02:12:28.620
they say okay so he dies he turns to ash and then god resurrects him on the day of judgment
02:12:37.340
and god tells him why did you ask to be cremated he says because i feared you i don't want to face
02:12:43.900
you meaning he thought he's a sinner he's not good enough he's not worthy of god so he's had such a fear
02:12:49.340
of allah he said look incinerate me cremate me so that god will never be able to resurrect me now to
02:13:00.860
in the hadith says god enters him into paradise but he did he was kufur to say god cannot resurrect
02:13:07.900
me is kufur but in his understanding in his point of view in his understanding how he
02:13:17.020
he had a fear of allah and because of he had a fear of allah even though he had kufur but his
0.73
02:13:23.740
kufur he doesn't understand his kufur god knows that if he understood his kufur he wouldn't have done
02:13:28.940
it you understand because kufur means blasphemy to say god can't resurrect you because you cremated
02:13:33.900
yourself that's blasphemy you don't understand god but obviously he was not that he was not that much of
02:13:42.060
a deep thinker you understand but god because of his because the man had a fear of god he was humble
02:13:49.980
towards god felt unworthy was granted paradise so somebody can have a wrong belief but be his intention
02:14:00.860
is good so if you were born in a jewish in a jewish family and all you know is judaism and you think
02:14:07.020
you're doing the right thing you think you're pleasing god you don't have critical thinking you've
02:14:11.180
never been exposed to other truths you can still make it to heaven
02:14:16.620
i think because you know the quran says the jews and christians that do good they have nothing to fear
02:14:24.140
and then later on the quran says there's only one path to allah so now we have to reconcile the two
02:14:30.860
and there are different ways uh scholars reconcile it i'm telling you that in if somebody saw two
02:14:37.820
religions and he chose one because of pride or loyalty to humans or or because he didn't want
0.96
02:14:43.500
to be shamed publicly or whatnot then he chose other thing allah okay then he's liable but if that was
02:14:51.180
his best understanding at that time let's say for instance us muslims do a bad job of representing islam
02:14:57.180
and people are turned off by islam because we're seeing all sorts of crazy stuff
1.00
02:15:03.340
like uh kill a ball or whatnot and people have a fit that inside oh no killing people is not good
0.77
02:15:08.300
murdering people they have a fit that also don't forget they're like hey can't be right what they're
0.59
02:15:13.340
saying if we have a bad example of islam we're going to be the ones who are liable the quran says look
1.00
02:15:20.380
if you don't fulfill your mission i'll replace you with another people like we have to fulfill our
02:15:25.740
mission so who's fulfilling our mission the quran says god is going to choose between us you know
02:15:31.340
because the quran refers to all sorts of you know how we debate and how we have sex and all that oh
02:15:37.900
don't worry wait till judgment day god is going to choose between you but what i'm trying to tell you is
02:15:42.460
if somebody is doing their best to get close to god and they're really being genuine i think they
02:15:49.260
have nothing to fear i agree for me the clear answer is islam yeah i agree so people have asked me
02:15:56.700
before that would start up a lot of controversy in my community was i had um people my friends
02:16:02.700
uh muhammad ajab and ali daba they came on my stream and they said they would rather have
02:16:06.460
have a 50 gay sons and have one christian son i don't know maybe so i would rather have a christian
02:16:12.380
son any day there's no doubt in my mind which would you which would you pick i would have stopped
02:16:18.620
before i got to 50 with their altering game 49 you're like maybe i'll stop having kids maybe
02:16:24.940
maybe i should have maybe something's wrong with the water i'm drinking you know uh look no no seriously
0.99
02:16:30.140
speaking um look are the gay sons muslim yeah listen i'll tell you something the worst the worst sin
1.00
02:16:46.540
is shirk yeah the worst it's heavier okay now it's not an insult to gay people i believe that
0.96
02:16:53.900
we all have our journey shortcomings i always say i always tell my sons look we're not gay we're
0.98
02:17:01.660
condition you we listen i'm being totally honest you can be conditioned to be gay yeah also look you
0.68
02:17:09.500
could be born gay i believe that and you could be conditioned to be gay okay let me let me uh guys
0.99
02:17:13.660
i'm telling you this is not my invention you think someone you think someone could be born gay
0.99
02:17:17.340
i think you can be born gay yeah sure okay sure now it's your it's your fitna in our world view
0.99
02:17:27.820
look it's your fitna if you're born gay look if i'm born with the thirst for alcohol
0.99
02:17:34.140
it's not haram it's only the drinking of alcohol it's haram
0.98
02:17:39.020
the thirst for alcohol is my fitna that you're gonna understand because you're a muslim and we're
02:17:43.100
not supposed to drink alcohol well how could someone be born with a thirst for alcohol if they've never
02:17:46.700
tasted it okay let's say i didn't know alcohol was haram i started drinking and then i convert to
02:17:54.700
islam but i have a thirst for alcohol well that's not being born with alcoholism that's you learned it
02:18:01.100
okay yeah it's it's a conditioned response but that's irrelevant to the point what i'm trying to
0.98
02:18:05.260
say is okay let's say i'm let's say i'm predisposed to want to murder i'm a psychopath i want to kill
0.69
02:18:10.620
somebody i just get a thrill of killing well but doesn't that go what we were talking about with
02:18:15.340
original sin don't we believe that babies are born pure so how could somebody want to be a serial
02:18:19.980
killer without that that came later that came later so but that wasn't you weren't he wasn't born with
02:18:24.940
that it wasn't innate no listen that's what i'm trying to look at what i'm talking it's not a sin to
02:18:30.860
want it's he hasn't sinned yet look if i'm if i'm born with something look when i saw a woman
0.88
02:18:39.340
nobody ever told me to like a woman when i first saw a woman i want bananas i want that i don't know why
0.99
02:18:43.980
why but that's what i want that's inside me i was born with that instinct but that's not a sin
02:18:51.500
okay fine but let's say i don't know let's say for instance i see a squirrel and i want to throw a
02:18:57.980
rock out i want to crush that squirrel then i don't want to eat it i just want to kill it that's a sin
02:19:05.740
right i want to crush that i want to take that rock and just for just for fun i want to smash that rock
0.98
02:19:10.620
on top of the squirrel just to see what happens that's haram i have that desire what i'm trying
02:19:18.060
to tell you is the desire is not had on the action is the action is okay this action is haram
02:19:27.020
look if i want to yell at somebody just like christian i have that feeling i'm angry i have
02:19:31.980
this anger inside me and i want to yell well that's how i'm to yell at that person insult them
02:19:42.860
we have to make a distinction here okay so some muslims are gay they tell you look i'm gay i don't
0.57
02:19:47.500
want to be gay i wish i wasn't gay no i'm telling you i i it's it's not haram to be gay it's haram to
0.97
02:19:54.620
act the act is haram the act is haram look how about this one okay i want to sleep with a woman outside
1.00
02:20:03.660
she's not my wife i want to sleep with her i'm born with that i don't do it it's haram but the
0.86
02:20:09.500
desire to want to have more women is not haram i guess it's the difference between a natural desire
02:20:16.380
and an unnatural desire well here's the thing if you do you think some look you can be conditioned
02:20:25.180
look there's something in psychology they call nature versus nurture okay you have nature how you're
02:20:30.780
born you have instincts you're born with predisposition you want to eat you want to
02:20:35.980
drink you want to sleep you want to cover yourself when you're cold you want to uncover yourself when
02:20:40.700
you're hot you have these uh sensations okay so like when a kid is born he wants to put everything
02:20:46.140
in his mouth why he has it feels good when he tastes tastes good it's delicious it's sweet
02:20:51.660
he doesn't know why but he has these receptors in his mouth and he wants to stimulate them
02:20:55.980
as he grows he discovers other parts and other functions of his body okay what i'm trying to
02:21:02.540
tell you is the desire is not haram it's the action that's haram so if somebody was
02:21:10.540
naturally born gay he wants to be gay the action is haram
0.92
02:21:16.140
now in islam it's not true that we find gays and we throw them off uh buildings that's not true
0.99
02:21:21.820
i just heard the uh richard dawkins say that oh well the islam you know they're the worst they
1.00
02:21:29.100
throw gay people off the roof that's not the punishment for being gay that's not the punishment
1.00
02:21:36.300
for being here okay look in islam if you're gay
1.00
02:21:41.900
it's not haram it's the action what's the action the action has to be done publicly it has to be seen
0.77
02:21:47.340
by four people and when i tell you seen by four people they have to see the action now what i'm
02:21:55.500
trying to tell you look it's not my favorite topic okay what i'm trying to tell you is
02:22:00.380
it's if you if you go and do a pride parade in a muslim country it's going to be a problem
1.00
02:22:04.460
now you're propagating you're saying what's haram is good
02:22:09.340
you're teaching the young kids to be influenced now to think
02:22:12.140
here's here's what i'm trying to say okay look my kids i teach them when they're young
02:22:20.140
that they were born a man and i programmed them the best i can to be a man when they were young i
02:22:25.900
gave them a male name i gave them male like toys that are for boys i did activities that are for boys
02:22:32.140
i told them everything that a man needs to learn a man's responsibilities i conditioned what's between
02:22:37.580
his ears his mind to be a man when he looks in the mirror he sees a man and he feels like a man inside
02:22:45.020
his head he has a harmony between what's inside his head and what he sees as his physical body
02:22:51.980
now there's something called gender dysmorphia this is what my real point is okay maybe earlier i
02:22:56.620
wasn't clear some young kids when they were young they're born they're told they can decide what they
02:23:02.460
want you could be a boy you could be a girl you could play with a barbie doll you can do the dishes
02:23:08.460
you can mop or you can work play with a truck you can play with whatever games you want you want to
02:23:14.380
wear a dress today wear a dress today even though he's born a boy you want long hair and you want to
02:23:18.380
paint your fingernails no problem there are no gender stereotypes i'm raising you as you wish to be
02:23:23.580
then one day he chooses wrong maybe he chooses long hair fingernails a dress little shoes he decides
02:23:32.620
to do ballet and then he goes through a change he goes through puberty and he realizes wait a second
02:23:38.780
i see a man in the mirror but i feel like a girl inside because i was always treated like a girl
02:23:44.780
now he has what they call gender dysmorphia what i see in the mirror is not how i feel inside
02:23:49.500
though the people who have this this problem the people with the biggest self-deletion rate i'll use
02:23:58.540
those words because i know it's a sensitive topic they push the delete button on themselves more than
02:24:04.060
any other group okay i don't know on discord if it's like no you're allowed to say this okay okay so
0.55
02:24:11.740
they commit suicide right yeah they're the highest suicide group rate yeah transgender people have the
1.00
02:24:18.380
highest suicide rate of any they see something in the mirror and they don't like what they see
0.87
02:24:23.500
they're uncomfortable in their own skin they want to be what they were conditioned when they were young
02:24:31.580
because we can nurture you nurture means how i raised you also affects your psyche
02:24:38.060
so you have nature you're born a certain way and we have a way we could nurture you
02:24:42.940
i'll give you for instance okay let me give you a for instance i studied the greeks okay the greeks
0.99
02:24:49.340
were famous for having sex with young boys very gay are you sure i could say anything i want now you
0.98
02:24:54.060
can say whatever you want okay look it's not a secret what i'm saying now is not a secret
0.99
02:25:00.460
and how did they condition young boys to accept a man to to penetrate them i mean you got to have a
02:25:06.860
cool you got to have one incredible story to tell that young kid you know to make it okay what did
02:25:11.820
he tell that kid well he said look this is what the greeks would say man trust me i studied this myself
02:25:16.380
okay it's not my favorite uh part of greek philosophy but it's in there
02:25:22.620
they tell the young man what's superior a man or a woman and everybody at that time don't forget
0.97
02:25:28.060
this is the ancient world okay we don't want to judge them but with our standards but in their standards
02:25:32.220
at the time all the greats were men the great mathematicians the great conquerors the rulers
02:25:40.460
the thinkers the the farmers everything was controlled by men women were second class citizens
1.00
02:25:48.220
in the ancient world nothing higher much higher than a slave
02:25:54.700
the woman was nothing okay in the greek world nothing so a young boy would be like yeah the male
0.98
02:26:04.140
is superior so if you have sex with something what's better having sex with something inferior is
0.99
02:26:08.940
having some sex with something superior it's having sex with something superior exactly that's why we
1.00
02:26:15.260
have sex with you oh the greeks when they were writing like this and thinking like this and talking
1.00
02:26:20.540
like this they had no shame it was a common place for a mature man to have sex with a prepubescent boy
1.00
02:26:32.380
now today we look back we cringe it's not normal but they were conditioned that way the greeks today
02:26:37.820
don't practice that the greeks today converted to christianity
02:26:43.180
or orthodox christian okay they're not catholic christian even though it's a separate topic
02:26:46.620
they today don't say they're the same genetics remember we said nature versus nurture the same
02:26:53.020
genetics but a completely different outlook you shouldn't do that that's wrong that's haram and
02:26:57.900
it's undesirable how come the greeks later on made it undesirable well they converted to christianity
02:27:03.980
christianity put a stop to that what i'm trying to tell you is you could teach people a behavior you
02:27:09.900
could teach people when they're really young to like something to desire something so that's why
02:27:16.940
islam islam if you look at islam everything that's haram is what harms the nuclear family
1.00
02:27:22.540
everything that's halal doesn't harm the nuclear family the nuclear family is a mother father and two
02:27:29.420
or three children okay everything that harms the nuclear family brother it's haram what kills the nuclear
02:27:37.260
family well adultery kills the nuclear family extramarital sex kills the nuclear family drugs
0.97
02:27:43.820
and alcohol gambling kills the nuclear family homosexuality you know my kids i tell them look
1.00
02:27:49.820
if i was gay you wouldn't exist aren't you happy my parents conditioned me to be heterosexual
0.56
02:27:55.740
i was born a man and they taught me to be a man i'm comfortable being man we have an we have the nature
0.63
02:28:01.740
of man so we nurture you to be a man are you allowed to believe that in canada what do you
02:28:07.420
mean in canada they're pretty restrictive with this yeah they are totally but look here's the thing i
02:28:13.900
have the right to raise my kids as of now because i think in the future they're going to try and
02:28:17.980
interrupt this kind of process because they're already starting now they're asking kids what gender
02:28:22.460
are you at a young age and they don't ask they don't tell the parents they don't inform the parents
02:28:26.940
the school does it without your knowledge right yeah exactly so the now the the government's
02:28:32.540
slowly becoming coming between me and my kids right but i'm not worried about it because i spend
02:28:38.620
time with my kids i talk to my kids i tell them doesn't it make sense that you're born a boy and i
02:28:43.260
taught you to be a boy think about your computer okay you have a computer yeah there's a computer
02:28:48.700
that's the hardware and then you have the software the program right downloading bad software in school
02:28:53.660
no what i'm what i'm telling you is i have a computer i put the program you're you're a
02:28:59.500
computer i gave you the program of a computer i didn't give you a program of a of a spaceship
02:29:05.020
or a boat or a a game boy i put you the computer for i have i bought a mac i have a mac you were born
02:29:13.420
a mac i gave you the software for a mac it has to be in harmony is what i'm trying to tell you you're
02:29:19.260
a born a boy i taught you to be a boy if you're my daughter she was she's born a girl i taught her
02:29:25.820
to be a girl so we have hardware our body then we have software what's inside your mind and when you're
0.99
02:29:33.260
born your mind is very fertile psychology shows it's extremely extremely fertile you can implant
02:29:40.620
almost anything in their mind okay now i'm telling you that even though i program my kids to be males
02:29:51.580
they're a born male and i program them to be male still i would tell you a slight amount of people
02:29:58.860
are born attracted to the same sex why because think about it they have why it's a it's a fitna
02:30:09.580
fitna means it's a test from allah how are you going to juggle it it's your fitna it's your
02:30:14.860
challenge from allah how are you going to juggle it how are you going to overcome this test now your
02:30:20.380
fitna is harder than mine maybe fitna you understand what fitna means what that means is your test from
02:30:26.140
god my test from god might be something else you know we all have the same test okay to worship
02:30:32.060
allah to recognize allah but we also have other tests let's say for instance i lose my job tomorrow
02:30:38.540
let's say i lose my job and i go home and i lament and i just like go in a downward spiral and i'm
02:30:45.340
super negative and i start drinking alcohol and i start you know like thinking about killing myself
02:30:49.980
and all that that shows i don't have a faith in god
0.96
02:30:54.860
and a muslim brother would tell me look that's your fitna god took away your job
0.99
02:30:58.460
our faith is going to replace it with something better well if i believe in god and every god has
02:31:03.660
control of all things i can you know say to myself you know what i will keep living tomorrow
02:31:08.060

02:31:12.060
not going to get depressed i'm going to get up tomorrow and go find a job and and and i have a faith
02:31:16.700
i have a i have a belief that i'm gonna overcome this fitna now people have fitness of every kind
02:31:23.020
islam teaches you people have fitness of every kind and it can be
0.97
02:31:27.020
that one of your fitness is that you're homosexual it can't be well we know we have homosexual muslims
1.00
02:31:37.580
what makes somebody homosexual is it the act or is it the thought
0.89
02:31:43.500
the act the desire the desire is not haram so then so then so if it's if it's the act and nobody's born
0.78
02:31:50.300
gay because they haven't if it's the act no no it's not what makes you homosexual it makes you
0.96
02:31:56.460
homosexual as you're attracted to the same sex okay now that in itself is not haram all right that's
0.99
02:32:03.980
outside of your control look do you like chocolate or you like vanilla i dabble with both let's say you
0.92
02:32:11.660
had to choose one uh vanilla okay you chose vanilla did you decide that when you were young
02:32:20.060
no no no okay some people they see a guy some people see a girl and they like the guy better
02:32:29.980
the same way you liked vanilla yeah okay now it's haram to it's haram to engage in this
02:32:37.260
understand now here's the thing about before you continue it's not really like chocolate vanilla it's like
02:32:43.100
chocolate and dog poop like one is nurtures you and one's bad for you okay okay look i'll say something
02:32:50.380
i wouldn't say it that way because that's very insulting to them right it's very insulting it's
02:32:53.580
not it's not nice because you're saying look you're attracted to dog poop so that person that you love is
02:32:58.940
dog poop it's it's you have to be careful with that because i would say we shouldn't you know the
02:33:03.740
quran says when you talk to people talk to them in the best manner i'll give you for instance okay
02:33:08.300
that's sure moses alayhi salam he was told to go talk to pharaoh pharaoh in in the quran is the
02:33:19.740
the quran commands moses alayhi salam go and speak to him softly
02:33:25.900
that's pharaoh pharaoh if you go ask a sheikh tomorrow who is the worst of humanity you're gonna
1.00
02:33:30.380
say pharaoh the pharaoh why because he was given so many miracles so many chances to believe
02:33:36.780
in allah but he said no i'm allah he's god then the pharaoh says i'm god
02:33:43.660
okay that's the shirk right the ultimate shirk even though he was given miracle after miracle
02:33:49.420
proof after proof he still kept saying he's god so he was the worst of humanity and now his body's on
02:33:55.500
display for everyone to see right but when moses alayhi salam was commanded to go see him he was
02:34:02.620
commanded go see him and speak softly to him the first was a soft speech and then it escalated one
02:34:10.220
plague after another until hey he was drowned in the sea okay so it got worse and worse and worse
02:34:16.540
because god kept giving him harsher and harsher uh convincing proofs so he drowned them in the in the
02:34:31.420
look flies to flies you know flies like a fly flying around yes they love poop they love excrement
0.96
02:34:39.980
they hang out they love it they're built not in a way they chose they're built in a way that excrement
1.00
02:34:46.860
excrement horse shit is desirable to them if you see a pile of horse shit somewhere you're gonna see
1.00
02:34:52.380
flies yes or no every time every time you're built in a way that the horse is disgusting to you
0.99
02:34:58.620
right but to a fly and i'm not like i'm not liking a fly to to a particular group here i'm just saying
02:35:04.380
look we can be built to like anything that's god's discretion now that's the fitna it's not that i was
02:35:14.300
look if i have an overwhelming desire to kill let's say i'm born a psychopath but i never do it
02:35:24.780
i know it's haram i know it's haram i know it's forbidden and i never kill
02:35:29.660
well on the day of judgment inshallah we're gonna say god gave him a hard test and he passed it with
02:35:34.780
flying colors you understand so uh if somebody was i'm telling you i raise my kids so they have a
02:35:42.220
harmony between their body and their mind but even then after all that if he was gay then i'll believe
1.00
02:35:50.460
him now i'm not saying i would i'm not saying it's halal it's completely haram just make trying to
02:35:56.380
i'm trying to make a point here what i don't want is to send my kids to a uh uh any any place anywhere
02:36:04.060
where they convince them that hey you could decide whether you're gay or not
02:36:06.860
whether you want to be a girl or a boy you want to whether you want to be a cat or a wolf
02:36:13.020
whether you want to be this no no no no i don't want you to i don't want you to ask my kid if he
02:36:17.100
can decide that for himself because i don't think my kid should decide whether he's a gen this gender
02:36:21.980
or that because i don't think my kid is mature enough to decide whether he wants to drink alcohol
02:36:27.260
or not why don't you ask my kid if he wants to drink alcohol or not why do you make it forbidden
02:36:31.420
for children to drink alcohol why because you're like it's bad for their health well i deem did
02:36:35.840
bad for his health this ideology it's bad for his health it's bad for his psyche i'm telling you he's
02:36:42.420
born with him he's born as a man he has a he has you he has you know he has the equipment for a man
02:36:47.400
he has the hands of a man he has the eyes of a man he has the jaw of a man why would i program him
02:36:52.000
to be anything else now i'm telling you this new wave of wokeness is program it's confusing kids
02:37:01.180
it's telling kids look decide for yourself they're not mature enough to decide for themselves you
02:37:06.220
understand they're going to choose wrong and regret it later so they can't vote but they can choose
02:37:10.120
their gender exactly but it's not really that new of an ideology in the talmud it says that there's
02:37:16.000
eight genders they believe in androgynous and multi-genders or it's actually older than islam
02:37:22.580
disbelief no no i listen that's what i'm trying to tell you that's what i'm trying to tell you it's
02:37:28.920
it's in human beings it's not something we we made up for fun it exists and if you look at like
02:37:37.840
animals in captivity they also behave that way okay so a lot of people link it to city living you know
02:37:43.740
city living when when the human beings are very compact and jam-packed maybe it's not a good idea
02:37:49.580
to have more human beings so there's something triggered in their dna this is again it's all
02:37:53.720
hypothesis okay just hypothesis not even a theory it's just a hypothesis some some some people
02:37:59.080
speculate that something's triggered in your head that or your your your your epigenetics because you
02:38:06.340
have genetics and you have epigenetics something's triggered in your dna to make you not want to
02:38:11.720
reproduce so we don't have overpopulation you understand so look what i'm telling you is this
02:38:19.060
i think the woke ideology is going to confuse a lot of kids it's going to make kids
02:38:26.160
if i tell you look uh snico you have chocolate or vanilla okay it's not going to confuse you you
02:38:33.480
got to choose one and you're going to try both let's say i tell you no look there's every flavor
02:38:37.640
you could imagine we have caramel we have caramel mint we have caramel chocolate chip that's just the
02:38:42.980
caramel section i have all these other flavors i have uh candy candy uh uh cotton candy i have rocky
02:38:50.960
road i start naming you hundreds of ice cream flavors you're like wait a second i'm gonna spend a lot
02:38:55.740
of time trying all these ice cream flavors i don't know which one is right for me well what if i told
02:39:01.820
you hey snico here's you're born like this this is your flavor this is what you eat
0.99
02:39:05.660
and you're like okay vanilla it is i never knew anything else other than vanilla
02:39:10.900
i'm telling you when you tell a kid look there's so many possibilities you could even be a cat if you
02:39:17.460
want you know now people associate as a cat and you got to humor them i associate as a spaceship well
02:39:25.540
we got to call him a spaceship now he's a spaceship the guy's like when you tell somebody the possibilities
02:39:30.080
are endless they have to spend time in their life dabbling in all these endless possibilities i didn't do
02:39:35.560
that with my kids i think that's child abuse personally a kid was born with the body of a man
02:39:39.720
i named him i gave him a boy name i gave him boy toys i gave him things to do activities that boys do
02:39:46.080
i let him hang out with other boys i let him hang out with the guys i let him see what men are
02:39:50.800
and they gravitated naturally towards being men now i pray that my kids don't have that fitna
02:39:56.140
that sorry not that that excuse me that fitna of having that desire for the same sex now if they did
0.99
02:40:04.740
now it's between them and god not to commit that sin because for us it's a sin for the non-muslim it's
1.00
02:40:10.520
not a sin for him it's a perfect it's his right it's time to indulge in that his body his choice
02:40:17.820
right let me i tell my kids look that's their way of life being means a way of life okay
0.92
02:40:24.520
our dean it's unacceptable so i tell my kids let them they want to be gay let them be gay there's more
0.84
02:40:31.080
women for you why are you fighting with the guy why are you inviting him to islam well invite him
1.00
02:40:35.280
to islam and tell him look in our dean it's not allowed in our way of life it's not allowed
1.00
02:40:38.540
if his way of life let them if they're all gay so what so what well you have to look around them
1.00
02:40:45.460
okay but there's more women for us it's nico there's more women for us now you might have to
0.97
02:40:50.600
have two three wives inshallah is that a problem for you four four what was the goal inshallah inshallah
02:40:57.420
well i say inshallah inshallah you will have four wives inshallah and you make more children more
02:41:02.080
muslims more if they don't want their women we'll take them but they don't want them we're not stealing
1.00
02:41:08.440
then we're not conquer we're not we're not we're not committing uh murder here we're not killing people
0.99
02:41:12.600
to have more no no no if they don't want to marry their women if they don't want to because here's
0.95
02:41:16.940
the thing you know a lot of women convert to islam you know why they convert to islam because
1.00
02:41:20.840
they want a guy what's that a lot more women are converting to islam than men absolutely why because
1.00
02:41:26.820
that muslim guy is actually going to love me want to have a kid with me he's going to take me seriously
02:41:30.540
this other guy he just wants to rotate put me in his rotation i'm his tuesday girl he's got a
02:41:37.400
wednesday girl he's got a friday girl and i'm just in his rotation she doesn't want to be in his
02:41:42.300
rotation okay if i marry this muslim guy he won't put me in a rotation this guy is actually going to
0.71
02:41:47.860
want to have kids with me he's going to want to settle down he's going to be you know loyal he's
02:41:53.260
going to be loyal to her so what i'm telling you is in their deen in their way of life they don't have
02:42:00.000
haram this is not haram to them so i would tell them this look i would you know they say love is love
02:42:06.560
love is love i would i would say this i tell my kids this okay and i think muslim parents should tell
02:42:10.900
this to their kids man on man rectal penetration okay comes with some negatives it does one it's
0.88
02:42:21.280
the most transmissive guys they're going to want to cancel me is it a fact i'm only asking you is it
0.96
02:42:26.220
a fact what i'm saying that's all i want to know it's the most transmissive method of sex they get aids
02:42:32.100
what they get aids not not just aids any disease it's more transmissive if i have a disease
02:42:40.620
not me if a man has a disease the one way he can transmit it the most the most secure way he can
02:42:46.620
transmit it is through man-on-man rectal penetration stuff warts syphilis aids everything everything is
0.73
02:42:54.520
can be transmitted like this every sti okay every sexually transmitted infection
02:42:59.480
or disease that's why earlier i compared it um chocolate to to feces because like chocolate is
02:43:07.540
good for you it nurtures you right it tastes good and it you can turn into something that's positive
02:43:12.740
right it feeds you what well feces for example the way that what they do like they have to wear diapers
0.99
02:43:19.160
when they get older if they have too much they need to take drugs 10 incontinence so that's another
02:43:24.980
negative there's no there's it's not chocolate and vanilla it's chocolate versus poisonous chocolate
02:43:30.040
right so you're look at this point look it's unhealthy why i tell my kids i'm honest with my
02:43:36.220
kids my kids are older i tell them look 10 have incontinence meaning you have to wear a diaper you
02:43:41.680
can't control your bowels so one it's more transmissive who you can't control your bowels
1.00
02:43:47.560
it's possible 10 and three you can perforate your insides you can have feces leaking out of your gut
0.96
02:43:53.260
i know it's not discussing i'm not trying to discuss people but look you can perforate you can injure
02:43:57.480
yourself badly irreparably okay irreparably and you will never have kids don't forget this okay
02:44:04.780
you will never have kids this method it's just pleasure that's it i tell my kids look i with my wife i can
0.99
02:44:14.780
have pleasure i could do everything and i'll have kids mashallah alhamdulillah i say if i was gay you
0.58
02:44:24.000
wouldn't exist what would i be what would i be i'd just be some guy who goes to the market buys
02:44:29.420
flivorous things and i go on the internet cruising i have nothing i have nothing important in my life
02:44:34.040
how many kids do you have alhamdulillah i have three and one adoptive uh so four
02:44:40.380
you engage in quite a bit of debate do you not um i really don't have time to debate too much i i
02:44:49.160
have a podcast i have a uh where i just basically debate in my with my chat i don't really do formal
02:44:54.300
debates because i'm really super busy i i wouldn't plan or do much of that but i i studied philosophy
02:45:01.040
right so i know i i've studied argument you know i've studied logic so long so i just basically do a
02:45:06.820
lot of monologues what's the difference or are there similarities between debate argument and mma
02:45:14.380
well you know i would say there's parallels you know there's uh you know i would say you could
02:45:23.000
reverse somebody's argument by using what they said against them you know they made a point against
02:45:26.760
themselves similar to mma right if somebody pushes you you could pull them and use their momentum
02:45:30.600
as energy so me when they tell me love is love i don't agree i don't agree i said there's only one
02:45:38.720
formula that breeds life every single human being deserves every single human being was brought to this
02:45:48.360
world by a man and a woman except jesus alayhi salam and adam alayhi salam but i'm talking about today
02:45:58.860
everybody living today they had to have they came from a man and a woman yes or no
02:46:04.360
did two women ever bring a man to to a human being to life the two men ever bring a human being to life
0.85
02:46:10.760
not yet no so there's something sacred about the man and the woman
02:46:16.040
you know they say love is love no i say no no no the man and the woman when they come together
02:46:22.400
there's something really sacred this whole world wouldn't exist
02:46:26.660
nico imagine a hundred percent of the population was homosexual no what would happen i don't want
1.00
02:46:35.020
to imagine that okay but just do it for me as a favor do it as a favor to me uh you get israel
0.94
02:46:41.420
no listen if the whole world was homosexual there would be no more human race we wouldn't exist
0.99
02:46:55.260
you understand you can have as much man-on-man action as you want you're never going to produce
0.73
02:47:00.660
a child right so the man and the woman is sacred the relationship of man and woman must be kept sacred
02:47:08.900
for the for humanity to continue you know that look the lgbt community i want went from one percent
1.00
02:47:18.320
to now it's 12 percent in the next generation okay
02:47:21.560
you think all the woke culture is contributing to the growth
02:47:27.700
it must be right absolutely it's not hurting it it's not hurting it it's becoming cool now it's very
02:47:36.100
obvious it's not it's not even really a debate it's this is directly contributing to it right so
02:47:43.960
they won't we won't exist anymore you understand there's a point of no return let me let me ask you
02:47:52.520
something okay nico look you know can't said can't said this you know emmanuel can't he was a thinker
02:47:58.360
he was trying to say look if something is moral everybody can do it yes or no correct makes sense
02:48:04.900
right if it's moral we could all do it you say okay look think about homosexuality okay think
02:48:09.500
about this if we all do it just think about this it's a thought experience i know it's an uncomfortable
02:48:18.480
no we wouldn't exist anymore there'll be no more children there'll be no more families we'll be
0.99
02:48:27.460
we'll be eradicated well that's the agenda isn't it because if we're if there's all these homosexuals
1.00
02:48:32.660
we're not going to have a family unit we're going to strive further away from god we're going to be
0.99
02:48:36.360
easily controlled if there's a population decline and people are running around and confused and
02:48:41.720
they're going to go on medication they're going to be unhealthy then there's going to be an elite
02:48:45.580
class of people that could rule over the world while everybody else is confused and straying further
02:48:49.920
away from god because that's where power comes from well i would say look all the cultures that
0.64
02:48:57.040
don't have lgbt all the cultures that don't have too much liberalism are the ones whose population is
02:49:02.660
growing so cultures like like canada we rely on immigration because we don't have kids the the
02:49:10.900
average canadian has very little children the the european birth rate is 1.5 it's very very low
02:49:16.580
why liberalism mostly and you know the the wokeness let's say
02:49:21.360
they have to bring us into their countries traditional traditional people people who have
0.99
02:49:29.820
nuclear families but when we get to their countries it's like stop they're like stop being traditional
0.99
02:49:33.740
but wait you brought me here because you needed my traditional you need you needed what i what i believe
02:49:39.300
in you needed because i produce these kids but now they want to take my kids and teach them how to
0.66
02:49:44.400
live their way because look everybody when you have a kid you want to teach them your way of life
02:49:50.240
they don't have kids so they want to teach my kids their way of life you see that's the problem
02:49:56.720
that's the problem where i have because when i came to this country they said you could practice your
02:50:00.200
religion follow the law pay the taxes we won't bother you in your religion okay perfect that's the
02:50:05.040
deal i'm in i'm in i want to practice my religion i want to teach my kids my religion but they say no
02:50:10.560
now they're telling me we got to teach your kids about this new ideology and i'm like no that doesn't
02:50:16.320
it doesn't coincide with my religion at arm for us it's not i'm not breaking any laws but i just don't
02:50:25.120
want your i don't want your ideologies that's for you not for me okay now they want to teach my kids
02:50:34.220
their way of life you understand i don't want them to teach my kids i tell them you have your kids and
02:50:40.540
you teach your kids your way of life you know a lot of people say oh our culture is being diluted
02:50:45.480
because so many foreigners are coming in wow we're coming in for main reasons you colonized us you took
0.99
02:50:50.700
all our resources now we're following the resources and two you brought us here because you need our
02:50:57.300
our birth rate don't forget nico they bring traditional people into their country immigrants
0.99
02:51:04.020
because they need population why do they need population they don't have kids anymore
02:51:08.420
the liberal states the western states are very very low in reproduction rate very low
02:51:18.940
why is that one it's liberalism too much liberalism feminism and of course
1.00
02:51:23.780
ideology now is skyrocketing it's it's grown immensely in the last let's say 20 years it's
02:51:28.100
grown immensely they're not producing children anymore so what's what's going to happen in the
02:51:33.220
long run well humanity might be saved by the traditionalists by the by the conservatives
02:51:43.060
yeah muslims are going to dominate the population in probably 200 years because of this effect
1.00
02:51:49.220
much much less i've had this debate back and forth with uh
0.90
02:51:53.380
white supremacists for a while because look the thing with the muslims and white supremacists
1.00
02:51:58.180
have in common is we both believe that zionism is the root of a lot of evil in the world but when
0.99
02:52:03.540
you talk about this issue when you try to because i think what would solve their problem because they
02:52:07.700
have a very declining birth rate and they want to protect the white race really badly so i tell them
1.00
02:52:13.060
why don't you convert to islam because then you can have four wives it's going to protect you from
1.00
02:52:16.740
wokeness it's going to reject feminism you're going to have traditional values it's going to get rid of
02:52:20.820
this and they get that angry they say that islam is a desert religion it's sand people
02:52:25.700
you know you go back to go back to the desert right and so they want to but they have no solution
02:52:32.420
they'll say that there's a white genocide going on but they're not changing their way of life right
02:52:37.060
because their way of life is there's more women more white western women are going to taylor swift
1.00
02:52:41.780
concerts than they're going to meet their husbands so something needs to change right where their way right
1.00
02:52:47.380
now is not working to protect their race so if their priority right now is to protect the white
02:52:52.900
race they need to make an adaptation fast but they don't they don't they have this restriction
02:52:59.300
in their heads that islam this is desert the way we the word pronunciation is is incorrect and all this
02:53:05.300
they don't like it they don't they can't get around it but yeah but they come from christianity
02:53:09.940
too don't forget yeah and what's the difference between christianity and islam it's very very minimal
02:53:15.380
one we don't worship jesus as god and two we don't think he died for our sins that's really the
02:53:20.180
two major differences morality is identical like it's not that far apart we believe in one god we
02:53:25.220
trace ourselves back to abraham we believe in the commandments we believe in in in the same idea of
02:53:32.420
sin etc it's not that far off i mean they accepted christianity why is islam such an offense
0.98
02:53:38.180
it's from propaganda they think terrorist religion exactly it's exactly because after 9 11 even before
02:53:47.300
9 11 but especially after 9 11 there was so much propaganda against islam so much at the end of
02:53:53.380
the day it comes down to propaganda a lot of property like you could say anything about islam
02:53:59.300
negative you could say the most vile thing about muslims and nobody cares if you said the same thing
1.00
02:54:04.180
something about about jews another group oh oh you're gonna exactly so we're kind of living we're
0.91
02:54:11.700
kind of living you know um we're kind of living with other groups lived in the past and now it's our
02:54:17.940
turn basically you know now we're the ones uh getting attacked do you believe that crypto is haram
02:54:24.660
no not at all i think it's absurd to say it's i have a lot of people a lot of my fans say that a lot
02:54:29.700
when i talk about bitcoin and but if crypto is haram then fiat currency is even more haram
02:54:36.340
exactly what i was talking about yesterday on my podcast first of all yasser qadi gave a fatwa
02:54:40.980
saying bitcoin is not haram it's not haram and i saw this one muslim guy saying bitcoin is haram and
0.75
02:54:46.740
he didn't he didn't understand bitcoin he was saying a lot of buzzwords but he doesn't understand bitcoin
02:54:52.020
and i wrote in the chat please reconsider because you're completely wrong
02:54:55.700
do you want to make these bankers more powerful like why like i i can't understand i cannot
02:55:02.100
understand how somebody can side with fiat currency the worst currency in history
02:55:09.860
you know sneko if you took all the money in all the world all of it every last penny and you gave it
02:55:18.020
you know if you gave them all the money in all the world if you gave it back to the bankers
02:55:28.100
we still owe the money you know why because when they print money they give it to you at interest
02:55:32.580
those dollars don't even exist in circulation but you owe us and it's compounded interest
02:55:38.660
how on earth did you give me this money this money is is it's a type of slavery
02:55:44.260
but 99 of people just don't understand that their money that they use every day is a type of slavery
02:55:51.380
they will always be richer than us they will always be higher than us until bitcoin bitcoin can
02:56:00.580
change the tables turn the tables because now it's outside of the control now they have a competition
02:56:04.900
now we have something that's deflationary ultimately it's going to be deflationary okay
02:56:10.180
i'm a big believer in bitcoin i'm an early adopter i bought it way back in the day and i tell you i
02:56:15.540
highly recommend especially muslims get into crypto and bitcoin especially don't the other stuff a lot of
1.00
02:56:21.060
it is a scam look everything is a scam till it reaches critical mass bitcoin has reached critical mass
02:56:27.140
the network effect is real i'm a heavy believer in bitcoin it's going to eliminate interest or a heavy
02:56:36.980
interest the bankers are this the bankers are the source of most of the world's misery
02:56:50.340
people just don't understand how evil the banking system is if you took all the money in all the world
02:56:56.820
you still owe the money how's that possible well because they gave you the money with interest if i
02:57:01.220
lend you a dollar if i if the government gives you a dollar he borrowed that dollar on interest
02:57:06.340
which is he took a dollar for every dollar he owes he owes a dollar five back there isn't a dollar
02:57:14.340
five back in the system it's a huge scam and it's compound interest it's the ultimate haram look
02:57:22.260
you let's talk about money real quick okay see because in philosophy we study money too don't forget
02:57:28.820
aristotle talked about money the the greeks were heavily trying to understand what is money okay look
02:57:35.220
let's say you paint my fence okay you paint my fence and i give you tomatoes as you painted my fence
02:57:43.220
and i'm a tomato farmer we bartered that's called bartering you did something for me i did something
02:57:49.300
for you we're both happy now how many tomatoes do you want well it depends how much how many fences do
02:57:54.340
you want me to paint the more fences i paint the more the more fences you paint the more tomatoes i got
02:57:59.300
to give you right we're bartering now let's say you don't like tomatoes i need you to paint my fence
02:58:07.220
but you don't like tomatoes but i have tomatoes so i ask you what do you want you're like i want a chair
02:58:12.980
so i got to go find the guy who makes a chair this guy's the best chair maker how many tomatoes do you
02:58:18.100
want for my chair for this chair i want you know 70 tomatoes so i give the guy 70 tomatoes he gives me a
02:58:24.180
chair i give you the chair you paint the fence and that's a complicated system that's called the barter
02:58:28.740
system we're trading it's complicated so they invented something called money
02:58:37.940
you paint my fence i give you money that money represents how much you're worth
02:58:42.340
painting my fence your know-how your years your how rare it is that somebody can paint the fence
02:58:47.300
it's a very common job so you're not going to make that much
02:58:49.220
i give you this thing called money when i give you money then you could go take that money and go
02:58:55.940
buy the chair that you like i don't need to trade you a chair for you painting my fence we're not using
02:59:01.140
the barter system money came about because we wanted to get away from the barter system
02:59:09.300
now the bank holds all the money right you have your money in the bank the bank writes down your name
02:59:16.500
and how much money you got in the bank there's nico and that's how much money he's got that's called
02:59:20.420
the ledger it writes down coach the hobby and how much money coach the hobby has if you send me a
02:59:25.620
dollar the bank's gonna be like okay i gotta adjust the ledger here nico has one less dollar coach
02:59:30.820
the hobby has one extra dollar that's a ledger bitcoin is the ledger bitcoin is no different than a bank
02:59:38.260
but bitcoin is a public ledger that everybody could see there's no funny business
02:59:42.340
business you know a famous bank in my country called td bank just got fined three billion dollars
02:59:49.060
okay because they pulled the scam the bankers are always messing with the ledger because we don't see
02:59:53.380
the ledger they have it all you could see snico is what what's next to your name but everything else
02:59:58.820
he's hiding it he's adding money to it he's taking money from it he's borrowing money he's doing all
03:00:03.380
sorts of scam he's playing all sorts of magical tricks to keep you poor and keep him rich your children's
03:00:08.820
children's children are going to be poorer than his his rich children are always going to be richer
03:00:12.420
than you per generation bitcoin is the opposite bitcoin is the same thing it's a ledger yet it's public
03:00:20.500
now why would it be haram to have a public ledger explain that to me because i don't i never understood
03:00:28.340
the justification why they call out there's no justification there's no just there's no
03:00:32.260
justification the same thing the banker is doing except they're doing it open openly and the
03:00:38.820
community is using their computer power to verify it crypto is an open ledger it does exactly what
03:00:45.940
the bank does if coach jahabi has two bitcoin right next to bitcoin to his name if he sends one to snico
03:00:51.700
adjust the ledger now verify the ledger that he sent one to snico we're just keeping an open
03:00:57.220
ledger the whole world can see the ledger it's an honest banking system now here's where it could
03:01:05.700
be had on okay if look i start a new coin yeah i tell snico tell the world about this coin hype it up
03:01:14.660
yeah we're all gonna get on this coin now me and you we took a bunch of coins before we mined a bunch
03:01:19.940
of coins before we told everybody about it we started a coin i have one million of these coins you have one
03:01:26.340
million of these coins then we tell the world hey guys get this coin man this coin is going to be the
03:01:30.900
future people start buying this coin it used to be worth one penny now it's worth 10 cents now it's
03:01:36.660
worth 75 cents now it's worth a dollar ten me and you go on the market and we dump the coins that we
03:01:42.740
mined early before everybody else before everybody got on the bandwagon that's called the rug pull okay
03:01:48.260
that's a simplified version of a rug pull that i would tell you is haram of course that's haram yes
03:01:53.540
now that's somebody who's planning in the back to try to rip people off what's not haram i would
03:02:02.740
tell you look i invested in bitcoin very early on but now it has critical mass now it's outside of
03:02:08.900
anybody's control to dump on anyone what's the price today is that a 93 yet i'd hit the 93 today yeah
03:02:15.620
what year did you get in oh it's it's back down to 89 but i got i got in
03:02:28.260
mashallah i got in a long time ago my friend so if you need money to you need to borrow money from
03:02:37.780
let me tell you something i want to tell somebody everybody else something one more thing never sell
03:02:44.580
your bitcoin i hear horror stories of people bought bitcoin sold bitcoin don't sell bitcoin
03:02:50.420
look trade large cap coins like solana ethereum speculate on whether they're going to go up and
03:02:57.220
down but in the end when you buy bitcoin hold it forever like it's such a special coin don't ever
03:03:03.380
sell your bitcoin in the future you'll be able to actually today you can borrow on your bitcoin
03:03:08.820
okay so when you borrow on your bitcoin there's no there's it's not a taxable event okay so there's
03:03:12.980
a lot to know about bitcoin but i would tell you all the other coins is all about getting more bitcoin
03:03:18.340
that's how i see it okay and and i would tell you look don't trade coins that have small market caps
03:03:24.180
that are meme coins that people are going to rug pull each other that i would tell you that's wrong
03:03:28.260
that's bad bitcoin is in my opinion trustworthy because it's reached critical mass okay so what's
03:03:35.380
critical mass imagine sneko there's only two people with a phone okay two people and then you're the
03:03:43.300
third guy to buy a phone that phone ain't worth much there's only two people you can call there's
03:03:48.180
only two other guys with the phone now i tell you wait a week there's going to be four other people
03:03:53.300
with a phone so you're like oh there's only six people i can call that's not it's not it's not worth
03:03:57.220
buying this phone what if i tell you look there's going to be eight billion people with a phone
03:04:04.100
everybody in the world has a phone now you're like i gotta have a phone you need it that's the network
03:04:08.820
effect you understand facebook is only important because there's a lot of people on it tomorrow you
03:04:13.220
can invent a sneaker book and there's only two thousand people on it and nobody cares about sneaker
03:04:18.100
book because there's no network there's no critical mass but if you get to a billion users everybody's
03:04:23.860
like wow sneaker book is the place to be you don't sell a little bit at the top i sold a little
03:04:29.220
bit when it when it hit 82 i sold a little bit i sold a bit no but yeah but but i'll tell you why
03:04:35.460
you shouldn't sell okay where you just skim off the top and buy it when it goes down again yeah you
03:04:40.180
can do that you can do that but i will tell you okay fine you can do that but let's say this is fine but
03:04:47.460
i will tell you when when let's say you have a million dollars in bitcoin don't go don't use that
03:04:52.180
bitcoin to buy a house a million dollar house i would tell you borrow 800 000 and buy a house
03:04:59.060
isn't that isn't that haram no you could borrow money you could borrow look it depends how you borrow
03:05:05.780
money oh okay let's say let's say let's say you're a multi-millionaire mashallah hamdulillah of course you
03:05:14.180
are and i have a million dollars bitcoin and i give it to you as collateral i say look hold on to this
03:05:18.980
million dollars lend me 800 let me 800 000 and we you know we do it islamically the banking i'm allowed
03:05:26.820
to give you back a fee but not interest not compound interest i don't want to get into that debate but
03:05:31.380
let's say you're allowed to lend me money and we're doing it in a halal way now i take that 800 000
03:05:37.460
and i buy a house if i went and i sold my bitcoin that's a taxable event i have to pay taxes instead
03:05:48.820
of paying taxes i gave it to you as collateral and i borrowed a debt that is not taxable what i'm trying
03:05:54.900
to tell you is you want to avoid paying taxes legally on your bitcoin so when i take that 800
03:06:02.660
thousand dollars and i maybe i make a business with it i start a business and i slowly buy back my
03:06:09.460
bitcoin from you i buy it back you know we have a deal for a long time i'm going to end up giving
03:06:14.500
you something in profit with which is reasonable it's not compound interest i buy back my bitcoin
03:06:20.740
because that bitcoin in in our view the bitcoiners we think bitcoin is going to go up forever
03:06:26.180
so you buy back your bitcoin that guy i gave him back his fiat i gave him back his money
03:06:30.820
i took my collateral he was always safe because if i didn't pay you back you would liquidate my
03:06:34.500
bitcoin you would get your fiat back i gave you bitcoin as collateral use bitcoin as collateral in the
03:06:40.180
future there are smart contracts that can do that as well meaning there's no human intervention
03:06:46.340
but then you're you're avoiding tax so there's a lot to know about bitcoin because the thing is if
03:06:51.460
you're ever going to make a big move with bitcoin if you're ever going to if you have millions of
03:06:54.740
dollars of bitcoin the big bitcoin players they never sell their bitcoin they borrow against their
03:07:00.500
bitcoin why it's a taxable event when you when you liquidate your bitcoin and then they want to buy
03:07:05.700
that bitcoin back because that bitcoin i want to hand it down to my kids and i want my kids to hand it
03:07:12.180
hand it down to their kids because we're always going to be able to borrow against our bitcoin
03:07:18.740
we never sell it because bitcoin is ultimately deflationary think about it sneaker there's only
03:07:24.500
ever going to be 21 million bitcoin that's it but there's more and more people in the world that
03:07:29.460
want bitcoin so we have to divide the bitcoins they become more and more precious you made me regret
03:07:34.660
selling a bit i only sold like 0.3 0.3 i want it back now yeah that's okay that's okay as long as
03:07:41.780
you're gonna buy back in when it dumps you know because bitcoin is still gonna dump to 50 40 in
03:07:47.940
the future now we're in a super cycle now like like look i'll tell you something if you hold bitcoin
03:07:53.540
for more than four years you've never lost money like i always tell people if you have money that
03:07:59.300
you're ready not to spend for four years buy bitcoin with it it's a no-brainer
03:08:04.980
now though you're in a special time in bitcoin you're in a super cycle okay the super cycle is about
03:08:09.140
to explode who knows where it's gonna go it might go 120 it might go 150 but then it's gonna drop i
03:08:14.820
think the drop is gonna go back down to 50 000 60 000 that's when i'm gonna jump back in what's that
03:08:20.900
it's probably probably gonna go back down to 50 i said that's after a super cycle it's gonna take
03:08:25.780
us super high first we're gonna break records and then the guys are the whales are gonna dump they're
03:08:30.100
gonna sell we're gonna drop back 40 50 then guys like me are gonna jump back in and buy
03:08:35.460
you want to buy when everybody's not buying but i'm only buying with money that i'm gonna hold for
03:08:42.420
four years or more i'm ready to will i'm ready to part with that money for four years now the cycle
03:08:50.020
might return before four years but after four years we should hit another super cycle like we're seeing
03:08:54.980
today yes and this kind of cycle is eventually going to topple off because everybody's going to get into
03:09:00.900
bitcoin even donald trump said he's going to have a bitcoin reserve for the us even the usa is going
03:09:07.220
to start buying bitcoin it's a no-brainer it's a look it's it's a it's a brilliant solution satoshi
03:09:14.580
nakamoto if he's a real person or not whatever it doesn't matter the name the person the founding
03:09:20.100
group or person that goes by the name satoshi nakamoto was brilliant he resolved the problem a major
03:09:27.060
problem and the what the reason why he did it in the first block he explains is because of the 2008
03:09:32.500
what the bankers did nobody wanted to bail out the bankers and the government did anyway he took
03:09:38.660
taxpayers money and he gave it back to the bankers he saved the bankers the us government saved the
03:09:43.460
bankers why money talks rich bankers pull the strings and they got the government to take from the
03:09:50.580
taxpayer but it's capitalism and you didn't bank you didn't do your banking right you should go out
03:09:55.620
of business that's capitalism that's how it's supposed to be no they went in they took money
03:10:01.220
from taxpayers money and they bailed the bankers satoshi nakamoto's what did he do he fired off the
03:10:09.940
white paper bitcoin and now today we have a new monetary system that the whole world is quickly
03:10:15.140
gaining on so everywhere everybody's getting into bitcoin watch this next bull run i remember when when
03:10:20.260
bitcoin heard 30 000 everybody was freaking out everybody were like we can't believe bitcoin was at
03:10:26.340
30 000 guys 30 000 i don't think we'll ever see it again it's nothing 30 000 it's nothing we'll never
03:10:32.180
see 30 000 again i highly doubt it we're gonna see 60 we're gonna see 70 me at that time i'm gonna jump
03:10:39.140
back in i'm gonna now i'm probably gonna buy some some large cap coins now because i think the super
03:10:46.020
cycle is coming i might keep those large cap coins or i might convert them to bitcoin i'm not sure
03:10:51.140
depending on the utility because there are some coins they're gonna do better than bitcoin so i
03:10:56.580
believe in that like i believe in the solana project you know not that i'm recommending it i think people
03:11:01.140
should do their own research but i believe in these projects i think they're gonna be here 20 years from
03:11:05.540
now that's what i always ask myself is this project still gonna be here 20 years from now yes or no
03:11:10.260
if the answer is yes i'll probably invest in it i told everybody to get solana when it was at i think
03:11:16.820
a hundred dollars and now it's a it's a 212 so yeah i don't think solana is i don't think it's going
03:11:22.660
in a way any i don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon but there is a something i don't like
03:11:27.540
about solana there's a lot of meme coins so one day if they regulate solana all that's going to go
03:11:31.700
it's going to drop the price so there is some threats to solana there's a lot of meme coins there's
03:11:36.340
a lot of people out there trying to make bogus coins whatnot because they want to ride this wave
03:11:40.740
and a lot of people are going to fall for it a lot of people are going to get rich but it's on the
03:11:44.900
backs of other people that's what i think is haram we're like hyping up coins to rug pull people that
03:11:50.340
i would say is haram but that's totally not what's going on with bitcoin bitcoin is not a hype bitcoin is
03:11:57.300
us trying to get away from the american sorry from the from the banking ledger
03:12:01.380
it's a healthy competition to the banking ledger
03:12:08.980
what have you learned in philosophy that is not applicable or not directly applicable to islam
03:12:16.020
something that a philosophy lesson that you really resonate with that muslims aren't aware of
0.96
03:12:22.260
because i want to get more that did resonate with me yeah or it didn't that did it did yeah um
03:12:31.380
i'll tell you something one of the most famous philosophers his name is renee descartes okay
03:12:36.420
renee descartes was he left first you know kind of one of those no he wasn't atheist he was not
03:12:41.620
he was an enlightenment guy what's that was he an enlightenment era philosopher yes yes yes yes
03:12:47.700
but he was very theist and he believed in god he was a christian look a lot of highly intelligent
03:12:53.060
people believes in people believes in god a lot like i can name you pop you off a long list okay
03:13:00.500
renee descartes said something really interesting he was trying to find something called what we call
03:13:06.020
philosophy foundationalism okay foundationalism means i have something so so true that nobody could ever doubt it
03:13:14.340
like for instance your name is sneeko right what if i tell you look your name is sneeko you believe
03:13:24.020
your name is sneeko but it could be that your mother adopted you when you were young and your name was
03:13:28.900
steward and she flipped your name to sneeko it could be you don't know there's a doubt right there's a little
03:13:34.180
doubt even though it's even though it's less than zero zero point zero zero zero one percent still
03:13:40.100
there's a little doubt you don't know for a fact you weren't there so this is what we call cartesian
03:13:46.180
doubt it's like hyper radical doubt like descartes asked how do you know you're not dreaming right now
03:13:53.460
you could be dreaming it's possible when you're in your dream when sneeko when you're sleeping you're
03:13:58.660
having a dream you're kicking you're punching you're moving i don't know you're having all sorts of
03:14:02.740
what's that i don't know i'm dreaming when i'm dreaming you don't know you're dreaming when you're
03:14:06.420
dreaming right so he was like even i want to know something even if i was dreaming i couldn't be wrong
03:14:14.820
he wanted something so foundationally solid that you cannot doubt it okay now this is a very deep
03:14:22.100
book it's a book called the meditations i mean people have written about this book to no end okay
03:14:26.980
and he says look here's what i'm certain of can't break this he says look i think therefore i am
03:14:37.300
i think therefore i am cogito ergo sum he says in latin i think therefore i am i know i exist because
03:14:47.300
i have thoughts right and to have thoughts i have to exist even if he speculates imagine there was this
03:14:52.900
evil god and he was trying to trick you every time he touched ice ice is really hot but it made he made
03:14:59.300
he tricked you to think it was cold you know when you touch ice your hand is cold right
03:15:04.980
in reality ice is hot this evil god he's this demon he's making you think it's cold but really he's just
03:15:11.060
fooling you so you can't even be sure that ice is cold like he he's look i know i know a lot of
03:15:17.940
people are going to find this ridiculous but he did this for a very good reason okay don't forget
03:15:21.460
the guy was a very very uh accomplished mathematician uh geometry math science incredibly accomplished
03:15:30.980
but he felt all these all these sciences were shaky if he couldn't answer this question
03:15:36.420
if he couldn't find something certain perfectly certain
03:15:42.260
now he said this listen to what he said okay he said something very profound it's very similar to
03:15:46.180
islam that's that's what i think people miss about islam he said i think therefore i am i have to
03:15:56.580
exist because i have to think right and if i'm thinking right now even if i have a doubt that's thinking
03:16:04.660
so if you doubt it you're thinking if you're thinking you exist right so he seemed to have this
03:16:11.220
perfect gem it was just like this perfect gem and nobody could doubt it and from there from that
03:16:16.900
first block he said look i'm going to build a building for you the first block is undestructible
03:16:21.780
then i'm going to put a second block and then after a third and then i'm going to bring math
03:16:25.300
science history and i'm bringing all that stuff that you doubted earlier but look i piled it up on
03:16:29.300
this perfect brick this brick nobody can break it because if you break this brick the whole thing will
03:16:34.100
come down so i have to found it on something so certain it's unshakable
03:16:46.820
reading other philosophers and then later one philosopher punched a little you think can you
03:16:52.180
punch a flaw in that it's pretty tough right because you have to say look if i doubt it i'm
03:16:57.380
having a thought a thought is a doubt is a thought and if i have a thought whether it's a doubt or not
03:17:03.460
it's proof that i exist it's not proof existence but here's where here's where
03:17:08.100
where nietzsche pulled the rug out from underneath him
03:17:12.980
each is like okay well you said i think who's this i think that's a presupposition what's this i
03:17:19.460
i now you have to define what i is and in philosophy i'll tell you something we cannot define what it
03:17:25.380
what the i is what's it what's a person me yeah me is a sound right is it but what is it referring to so
03:17:33.220
here here's let me give you an example okay let me give you an example
03:17:40.260
when you look at a human being's life okay uh hume said it really beautifully he said look it's like
03:17:46.020
a link of chains imagine i have a chain okay it has 10 links i take one link i destroy it and i add another
03:17:53.140
on the other end imagine you have a link of there's 10 links right still 10 yeah then i destroy the
03:18:01.540
second link and i add another on the end and i keep destroying one and adding another throwing one
03:18:06.100
and adding another after 10 repetitions it's not the same chain no more physically but it's it's this
03:18:13.140
chain is a living chain it's going through this journey the human being is very like this chain okay
03:18:20.900
every cell in your body has been replaced after seven years your body's regenerated every single
03:18:27.620
cell in your body you ate food you breathed in air your body used all that created chemistry and
03:18:33.380
rebuilt your body several times over your body is like that chain we took out one chain we put another
03:18:39.140
yet we still call you sneaker you're you're imagine your house okay your house has thousands and
03:18:46.820
thousands of pieces that bring it together but every day i replaced one you live in that house every
03:18:52.100
and i replace every single piece in your house but you're like this is my house but i'm like no man
03:18:56.340
all those pieces out there that i replaced that's your house you're like no man i come in here every day
03:19:01.380
you you the house has a continuity like your body has continuity even though you're not
03:19:08.820
one feet tall when you were born you're a little you're a little baby you had no vocabulary you
03:19:13.220
learned all these things you went through all these changes baby sneaker doesn't exist anymore
03:19:18.740
but look at you we still say he's sneaker there's something between baby sneaker and what you are today
03:19:23.940
that's continued it had continuity so it was the eye the soul but hold on hold on the the eye is
03:19:32.820
subjective is what i'm trying to tell you it's something we can't put our finger on exactly
03:19:37.460
so it's not that he disproved descartes it's that he added something that was questionable
03:19:49.460
uh descartes uh cogito as we call it okay the i think therefore he shook it okay he shook it because
03:19:56.420
now we're like wait a second what is the eye wait a second what is i what does it mean i so we start
03:20:02.900
saying who's having these thoughts what are these thoughts are these thoughts happening to you are
03:20:06.100
they your thoughts so it brought in all sorts of debate and all of a sudden we brought in doubt
03:20:11.380
into this one saying now i'll tell you something i'll tell you something when i read descartes i later
03:20:18.900
read ghazali and i realized descartes who came 600 years after ghazali
03:20:23.380
ghazali went through the same ghazali was a muslim philosopher okay he went through the same
03:20:31.620
journey trying to prove what is unshakably true
03:20:42.820
and that's what i i'll tell you remember we said i think therefore i am
03:20:51.380
la ilaha illallah means there is no worship except the law
03:20:55.300
it's but it's deeper than that it's deep it's much deeper than that
03:21:04.580
ghazali comes to the conclusion that only a god is ultimate truth now it's i'm giving you it in a
03:21:13.780
nutshell here but it's way more profound than that okay he has a famous book called the niche of lights
03:21:19.140
okay it's a very complex book but basically he's trying to tell you when you search for perfect
03:21:26.820
perfect truth this is in the quran by the way as well
03:21:32.020
ultimately only god is perfectly true only god is undoubtable and i'm going to give you for instance
03:21:38.100
i'm giving you a punch you know but it's not it's not well explained let me explain it to you okay
03:21:44.820
we all talk about truth right we always descartes was looking for this thing called truth truth
03:21:48.900
he was he was clawing for he was fighting everywhere he looked he couldn't find this
03:21:53.140
perfect truth he was always seeking truth always but a perfect truth not a truth perfect truth not
03:22:01.140
not something who's a hundred percent objective there's no subjectivity in it you understand what
03:22:08.980
are you familiar with objectivity and subjectivity yeah so let's say if i tell you red is the most
03:22:15.220
beautiful color that's subjective that's subjective that's your opinion yep if i tell you one plus
03:22:21.380
one equals two object that's not your opinion who cares about what your opinion is on that it's
03:22:25.940
right or wrong if you say one plus one equals three that's wrong regardless of your opinion
03:22:31.060
that's objective if a triangle has three corners that's objective
03:22:37.460
if i tell you no man i think triangles can also have three four corners no that's impossible
03:22:42.100
triangle has three angles there's only three you'll have a fourth corner with add a fourth
03:22:48.100
angle it's true by definition there are things that are objectively true okay so there's a famous
03:22:55.700
way to explain this it's called the the ship of thesis okay let me run it by you okay
03:23:01.940
there's a man named thesis he had a ship the ship has 99 parts
03:23:07.380
every day he has to replace one part so after day one he has one new part that was replaced
03:23:20.420
after two days two new parts two parts were two original parts were taken out and
03:23:26.660
a new part was put in the third day he needs a new part again so one of the original parts is
03:23:32.340
taken out and they put him a third brand new part after 99 days he's replaced every single
03:23:38.980
original piece but he's still sailing every day back and forth
03:23:45.700
if i ask you where's the ship of thesis you're like that's the ship of thesis thesis is on a ship
03:23:49.540
he's sailing back and forth every day you understand but then i take all the original
03:23:56.340
i put two ships on the sea and i'm like hey sneaker which one of these is his ship
03:24:02.660
he'll be like wait a second now there's two of them one with the original parts but the other one
03:24:07.380
they had all the miles on it of going back and forth every day which one is thesis is ship well now it
03:24:13.940
becomes arbitrary it becomes a matter of how you see that how you see things
03:24:19.060
imagine those two ships are going out on the water every day and i'm still doing the same
03:24:25.940
thing every day they have to replace another part now you have two ships
03:24:31.780
that are replacing a part every day and then i have 99
0.83
03:24:38.660
replace parts again i add more shit like which ship is the ship of thesis
0.87
03:24:42.740
you understand what i'm trying to tell you is because the ship is going through change because
0.72
03:24:46.900
it's having place uh parts replaced me and you will no longer agree on what's what's the ship of
03:24:55.060
thesis we're going to debate about it we're going to argue about it where did the ship of thesis start
03:25:01.060
where did it end this is the philosophy philosophical conundrum this is what's happening when they ask you
03:25:06.900
what is a woman they want a perfect definition there is no perfect definition listen carefully
03:25:11.300
there is no perfect definition if you don't have a dean okay because it's all interpretation
03:25:22.020
which one is the ship of thesis well you might decide
03:25:25.620
this one is the ship of thesis but who are you to decide i think it's the other one
03:25:29.300
your your your judgment is just as good as mine why should snico decide which one is the correct one
03:25:37.220
now imagine this nico put that put that example to the side okay
03:25:44.900
imagine we have the divine ship of thesis the ship of thesis is divine
03:25:50.020
meaning it's only made of one piece it doesn't need peace it doesn't need changing there's no other
03:25:55.300
ship like it there will never be another ship like it and there never was another ship like it
03:26:01.460
this ship always was like so it doesn't go through change now if we ask all of humanity which one is
03:26:12.020
the ship of thesis we're all going to point that's the ship of thesis it's become objective now do you
03:26:16.740
understand it's not a question of opinion anymore
03:26:19.300
when we say god is one god is eternal god is not changing we're saying god is objective truth
03:26:34.340
he's the soul and objective truth it's not a question of relativity this is in the quran
03:26:39.700
the quran says after allah what is there true what is there that's true the quran is asking you
0.99
03:26:48.340
god is al-haq the truth that is one of the names of god al-haq when people are talking about truth
03:26:55.220
truth truth they're praising allah you know the quran says all of humanity praises allah all of the
03:27:01.940
nature praises allah all everything the bird in the sky every human being because we're always talking
03:27:06.900
about what is true when you say what is true we're talking about the one who's al-haq he's the truth
03:27:13.300
everything else everything else is subjectively true it's true the greater there's greater truths
03:27:23.460
of course there are truths there are falsehoods but even the truth are dependent on
03:27:28.740
the truth the truth al-haq so it's complex because he was very sophisticated but he found something
03:27:37.300
foundational and that was god so he made it god he understood that god is foundational so basically all
03:27:44.260
objective truth comes from god and everything else is subjective not only that god is the only
03:27:52.100
perfectly objectively true only god is unique in this sense nothing is al-haq except god things can
03:28:00.820
be hack but nothing is al-haq okay i get it because god doesn't hack it's the comparison to the cells how
03:28:08.020
seven years ago you're a completely different objective objective truth because you're compromised
03:28:13.060
of a completely different body god is the only unwavering never changing being
03:28:19.300
yes that's correct but you know what i'd like to i like to liken it as think about numbers okay
03:28:28.020
think about the number three you can't explain the number three without explaining the number one
03:28:36.420
when i teach a kid the number three i'm like the number three is one then one again then one one more
03:28:42.500
time that's that's three the number two is like the number one but you have to repeat it one more time
03:28:53.460
every number is referencing the number one if i tell you okay what's 0.5 means 0.5 half of one
03:29:00.020
pick a one cut in half that's 0.1 whoa 0.5 that is the best argument i've ever heard for tohi
03:29:06.500
exactly for god is one because okay i get it i get it but what i'm trying to tell you is look the whole
03:29:14.340
world like all the numbers are screaming one all the numbers are talking to you every give me a number
03:29:21.060
29 29 is referring to one 29 one yeah yeah okay 29 is nothing without the number one so are you saying
03:29:29.700
that islam is mathematical not not necessarily math is look it's not necessarily mathematical math i i believe
0.99
03:29:41.540
i believe existence is information okay it's a little bit complicated
03:29:48.020
but i'm telling you like like every number screams one
03:29:53.700
the number 100 you know what the number try to explain to somebody what the number 100 is
03:29:58.020
you're gonna be like well it's 50 and 50 okay what's 50 what explain me 50 50 is like 25 and 20
03:30:03.700
what's 25 well 25 is like one plus 24 well wait we have to you have to refer to one eventually when
03:30:10.580
you have to take it all the way down to one okay the whole universe the whole universe is screaming
03:30:20.340
like all the numbers are screaming one the quran says look everything in existence is praising allah
0.99
03:30:28.020
and zero everything if you argue that it starts with zero zero is the absence of one
03:30:37.300
zero zero is still telling you imagine there was no one it's still a reference to one
03:30:48.260
all of existence is all of existence is screaming
03:30:58.420
god it's praising god this is in the quran as well okay this is in the quran the quran says look
03:31:05.300
all of all of humanity all everybody all the creatures of the world all the universe is praising god
03:31:11.780
god every number is telling you about one look you know what when i praise if i go on my youtube
03:31:18.580
channel i start talking about sneaker i'm praising sneaker i'm telling you about sneaker
03:31:23.380
every number is telling you about the number one
03:31:27.060
every mathematical equation is telling you about allah because allah is the
0.58
03:31:31.220
ahad he's represented by the one everything is screaming allah all the time
03:31:38.260
now some people can't hear it you can get into a state of mind where that's all you can hear
03:31:50.260
verse in the quran okay he said he was a brilliant guy but i think a lot of people misunderstand him
03:31:55.700
okay misunderstand sometimes he says things that's kind of scary and but he's saying something
03:32:01.300
most of the time incredibly brilliant okay look there's a verse in the quran it says look
03:32:06.500
the quran says if we brought the quran down to the this mountain here this mountain you would see the
1.00
03:32:12.580
mountain crushed humbled humility and humility in a state of humility if the quran came down to the
1.00
03:32:21.300
mountain and the mountain understood the crown it would be crushed it would be in a humble state
03:32:34.900
but a mountain is like the unshakable unmovable thing
03:32:40.820
like you can crash your car into a mountain you can nuke a mountain like it's it's this unbelievably hard
03:32:47.380
difficult impossible thing to maneuver right you can't move a mountain right
03:32:57.220
what happens when the quran comes to you well you're going to find yourself in a humble state
1.00
03:33:03.620
you're going to find yourself crushed but that's what ghazali was saying like if you
03:33:14.260
because it's la ilaha illallah la ilaha don't forget it's something muslims miss atheism and islam is very
0.96
03:33:26.740
look nobody this believes in gods more than muslims are real muslims who understand islam he doesn't
1.00
03:33:34.420
believe in any god he doesn't believe in this god zeus apollo we don't believe in any of that
03:33:41.060
we think you can scream their name as much as you want we think you could praise them as it's
03:33:44.660
useless the quran says they can't harm you they can't benefit you
1.00
03:33:48.020
we believe in none of these gods ill allah la ilaha there are no gods none of these gods except
0.98
03:33:56.900
none of them ill allah now these deities there are there are deities and there are
03:34:05.060
how do how do i say look there are imagined deities in our minds but they're not worthy of worship
03:34:18.500
they're not it's not only they're not worthy of worship they don't exist
03:34:23.940
only uh the only there's only one god yes we we agree with that so what about things like baal or
03:34:29.780
malak the these gods that they sacrifice to or do these deities not exist no they don't exist
03:34:37.380
shaitan doesn't exist no shaitan is not a deity some people worship shaitan doesn't that because
03:34:43.940
doesn't make him a deity it's he's not a deity shaitan exists yes but he's not a deity there's only one god
03:34:50.660
shaitan is not a god he's not a deity i'm trying to differentiate god from deities things that are
03:35:00.340
not worthy of worship but because you said they can't harm or benefit no no nobody's worthy of
03:35:06.020
worship right nobody yeah shaitan especially okay but he's not divine shaitan is not divine how do you
03:35:15.300
define divinity divinity divinity means you're you're allah you're god okay if you're divine
03:35:22.180
you're allah nobody has any share in divinity nobody's partly divine
03:35:30.100
all divinity is with god all of it all of it there's nobody who's divine okay so you might be
03:35:37.140
thinking supernatural you might be thinking supernatural yeah i was gonna ask when people do
03:35:41.540
because the quran does acknowledge that people could do black magic and can worship people
03:35:45.780
things yes but that's not divinity so what is that supernatural well that the supernatural is
03:35:52.900
something outside uh what we what we identify as nature okay so the patterns and irregularities
03:35:59.780
you see in nature that's a very that's a very deep question what is nature okay nature is something
03:36:05.220
not touched by man so if i show you this glass right here nature didn't produce this this is man man's
03:36:11.380
intervention so magic is something man intervenes it's not natural
03:36:18.900
look that water bottle you just drank man had to intervene to create that right okay
03:36:27.940
if man didn't exist that water bottle wouldn't exist right yeah so everything that's not dependent
03:36:35.220
on man that exists without man that's what we call natural okay look did we did man make the clouds no
03:36:43.620
that's natural everything that's not natural had human intervention in its creation
03:36:54.420
understand yeah i get it so everything outside a human creation is natural
03:37:06.420
um if humans let's say i make a okay i made a desk or i made a computer that's artificial
03:37:13.140
man intervened it's man's creation it's not a perfect definition okay but it's a good working
03:37:18.500
definition because we'd have to go far deeper in this subject but look that river it's not man-made
03:37:25.300
it's natural men can also dig a hole fill it with water and call it a river and it's it's not a natural
03:37:30.260
river it's an artificial river okay anything that's not created by man out there in the world it's natural
03:37:39.860
if i take if i take sugar and i refine it but it's not natural sugar no more it's refined sugar
03:37:46.820
we took we took something that was natural in the world we refined it and now it's refined sugar okay
03:37:53.220
so look basically what i'm trying to tell you is how every number screams the number one all of existence
03:38:00.180
screams the praise of god the quran says look if we brought this quran down to the mountain
1.00
03:38:04.980
the mountain would disintegrate now when i bring the quran down to you imagine your body disintegrated
1.00
03:38:13.380
think about this for a second okay inside you there's a point of awareness
03:38:25.540
imagine i was really really tiny and i was walking around inside your brain okay think about this for
03:38:31.620
a second it's nico it's a thought experiment for you i'm walking around inside your brain and i see
03:38:36.900
neurons firing i see blood pumping i see veins i see arteries i see all sorts of chemical states
03:38:45.860
i see dopamine i see all sorts of chemicals but i don't see your thoughts nico
03:38:51.620
you're thinking things you're you're deciding i don't see any of that all i see is machinery
03:39:00.420
i don't see the stuff of your mind i see your brain but i don't see your mind
03:39:07.700
correct now the quran is saying look destroy all that destroy your body imagine your body was
0.90
03:39:14.660
disintegrated that thing that's inside you that
03:39:19.060
inner state that you have that inner state of awareness what is it
03:39:21.860
it's still there there's there's something beyond the body
03:39:27.620
okay now we say the quran says adam was formed allah formed adam from clay and then he breathed into
03:39:33.780
him his is created created something okay this thing we have inside us i can cut you open i won't see it
03:39:46.980
you know in in science they call this the hard problem of consciousness
03:39:53.300
they say look the easy problem is the machinery the brain
03:39:56.900
the hard problem is that you have a mind but i can't see your mind if the scientist opens your
03:40:02.180
mind he'll never see your thoughts like for instance let's say you picture an apple can you picture an apple
03:40:07.460
in your mind right now yeah if i open your mind am i going to see an apple no what's the proof you have
03:40:14.100
you picture it in apple that's the hard problem of consciousness that's what all the
03:40:19.300
scientists say we can't prove it but we believe snico when he says he pictures an apple you know why
03:40:24.180
the scientist himself can picture an apple he's having a he's exposed to the same miracle
03:40:30.900
you know there's a guy named thomas huxley okay who they called him darwin's bulldog
03:40:37.140
he was a staunch defender of darwinism okay that's why they called him the bulldog of darwin
03:40:42.420
thomas huxley is he jewish thomas huxley no he's not uh no i'm not sure i'm not sure i don't know
03:40:49.300
thomas huxley said this he said look when he comes to the hard problem of consciousness the mind
03:40:54.740
he says i'll give you an analogy he's going to give you an analogy to to tell you how mind-bogglingly
03:41:00.900
incredible this is he's saying it's like if i took a lamp rub the lamp and a magic genie came out
03:41:07.060
this is darwin's bulldog he's saying look how is it possible the brain and mind the mind can exist
03:41:16.900
how is it possible because we have no logical proof of the mind and no scientific proof
03:41:23.860
the only reason i i know you have a mind snico is because i have one i have a direct experience with
03:41:29.380
the mind i didn't see your mind snico i didn't open up your head and hear your thoughts and see the
03:41:36.980
apple that you told me you supposedly experienced i didn't see any of that i'm taking your word for it
03:41:41.860
you know why i'm taking your word for it because i also have the same experience i can also picture
03:41:50.180
so what is it that's happening within us this we were that was given to us
03:41:56.420
if you disintegrate if if the whole if you imagine yourself without a body for instance
03:42:02.180
there's still a something within us and this something is not found in the dunya it's not
03:42:07.780
found in the world it's not discovered by science they can't put it in a test tube they can't measure it
03:42:13.860
they can't hold it they can't see it they can't weigh it they can't do anything to it but they also
03:42:19.380
cannot deny it every scientist is going to be like hey i i know about this thing you're talking
03:42:25.300
about because you know there's a famous uh atheist philosopher his name was daniel dennett he just
03:42:31.140
passed recently actually and he was trying he wrote a book called the mind explained and he basically
03:42:42.900
it's all an illusion but philosophers crushed him okay he was humiliated by this book because we're like
03:42:49.940
if you don't have a mind who's who's being who's under the illusion
03:42:59.380
nico can you trick a rock can't do that a rock doesn't have a mind right for me to be an under
03:43:07.700
illusion i'd have to have a mind how could you trick a mind that doesn't exist he fell into like a
03:43:13.860
trap after trap like the philosophers criticized him so badly he was denying his own mind think
03:43:22.020
about he wrote a book he had to use his mind to write a book about his mind and he said my mind
03:43:27.540
doesn't exist you know in the quran it tells us if you deny allah you deny yourself
03:43:33.860
you denied your connection he look the fitrah within us connects us to the other world
03:43:38.660
there's a world within us look you know what allah says in the quran says when you sleep allah takes
03:43:44.340
your soul when you sleep allah takes your soul where do you go when you sleep you go into another
03:43:50.420
world allah shows every night when you go to sleep it's like a little death you know the muslim when
1.00
03:43:55.780
he goes to sleep he's practicing death he goes to sleep and he's going to go into another world now
03:44:01.380
if you're a bad guy nico you're probably going to have a lot of bad dreams it's going to be a
0.81
03:44:05.700
a warning for you don't go to hell you know don't do a lot of bad things your inner your
0.92
03:44:10.100
deep inner conscience is going to tell you look i'm on the wrong path you have a fitrah don't forget
03:44:13.940
of course we have revelation we have a revealed religion but we also have our natural religion
03:44:21.060
it's in us that's why the quran calls itself the reminder it's reminding you of something snico
0.99
03:44:26.660
you already know something about allah the quran is reminding you
1.00
03:44:30.820
the quran is telling you look when you sleep allah takes your soul and allah returns your soul
1.00
03:44:37.540
back to you and some of the people he doesn't return their soul that they died they went on to the next
03:44:42.900
world and they're there now look what's the proof of that well guess what's nico every night you go to
03:44:49.300
sleep you go into another world and you can't explain it and neither can any scientists and when you're
03:44:54.340
remember we talked about earlier when you're dreaming you don't know you're dreaming and you only believe
03:44:58.980
you're dreaming because you woke up in this world but every time you wake up in a world you have
03:45:05.220
the same experience you're having now you have a history you think you ate breakfast you think you
03:45:10.180
grew up let's say you wake up let's say you have a dream tomorrow that you're 60 years old okay tonight
03:45:14.740
you go to bed you have a dream that you're 60 years old well you're sleeping and you wake up and you're
03:45:19.140
60 years old in your mind you've lived 60 years in this dream for you you're 60 years old now
03:45:26.340
you didn't just pop into existence you think you had a childhood and adulthood you were married you
03:45:31.140
had a job and now you're 60 and whatever you're doing you're doing in your dream
03:45:35.300
what i'm trying to tell you is the quran is telling you look every night you die and every night you're
1.00
03:45:41.140
in another world and then i return you back to this world and i you continue your tests in this world
0.54
03:45:47.300
but every day god is giving you a preview because when a muslim sleeps it's like a little death and when
0.99
03:45:53.460
he wakes up he's supposed to practice the resurrection say you know you praise god for
03:45:58.340
resurrecting you again it's a test every it's a it's a practice it's a drill every day you sleep
03:46:05.540
every day you wake up and you know what like you know i'm happy to go to sleep when i'm tired
03:46:10.100
snico i want to go to sleep when the time comes i'm going to be happy to die snico it's going to be
03:46:15.460
time for me to go like i like to sleep i don't fight to sleep at one point yeah i want to stay up late
03:46:20.420
sometimes but sometimes you know i know it's time for me to go i know it's time for me to get under
03:46:24.740
those covers and it's time for me to practice the death and i go into death and again i know when i
03:46:32.180
die in this world i'm going to wake up in another that's what the quran tells us
1.00
03:46:38.500
every day allah takes your soul this thing that you have within you no scientists can explain that's
03:46:45.220
why when the quran says look if the quran came to the mountain it would crush that mountain well if it
1.00
03:46:49.940
came to you why is why haven't you found what's inside already why haven't you why hasn't have
03:46:55.060
why hasn't it crushed your body yet why haven't you understood that there's something within you
03:47:01.460
you know because if you crush the body this is what we call fana in islam like they call it
03:47:07.300
annihilation it's a very controversial topic yeah because think about it muslims they're supposed to
1.00
03:47:13.940
learn how to wash their hands to do prayer but then after that's that's fiqh from fiqh you go to
0.99
03:47:20.180
to sawaf okay now that you learn how to pray you have to tackle the disease diseases of the heart
03:47:27.140
it's called the sawaf you know jealousy envy anger uh being a miserly etc like all the bad things that i
03:47:35.300
now why do we why do we tackle all the bad things that live in the human heart because
03:47:49.380
there's verses in the quran that talks about allah as the light
03:47:52.660
right you you ever heard these these verses allah is the light allah calls himself the light
03:47:57.460
the quran and the quran talks about how hit the light reflects off the lamp
03:48:03.300
you have a lamp you have a lamp and allah reflects off the light of the lamp
03:48:07.060
now he writes a lot about that but the the believer's heart when it's pure
03:48:12.420
you see a lot of good in him right he's charitable well allah's charitable he's kind
03:48:16.660
well allah's kind he's merciful well allah's merciful he's showing you the things that you
03:48:21.060
expect from god if somebody never lies to me he reminds me of allah you know why because allah
03:48:26.020
never lies you understand now let's say every time i turn my back you backstab
03:48:31.620
me every time i'm not looking you steal money from me every time i'm not around you you
03:48:37.060
you do bad things to my business or whatever well you don't remind me of god actually you remind me
03:48:41.540
of bad things you remind me of shaitan you don't reflect the light of allah you understand so there's
03:48:46.740
stages of islam where a person goes okay you're you're praying every day but then you you want to
0.98
03:48:51.780
do tasawwaf what's tasawwaf you want to learn how to reflect the good things why because your reflection
03:48:59.140
of allah a good muslim is supposed to remind me of allah instant that's why i always say like
0.91
03:49:05.700
muslims sometimes were a bad example about islam we don't remind people about god we remind people
0.99
03:49:11.220
about politics and fighting and disaster and and when somebody sees a muslim he should be reminded
0.96
03:49:17.860
about allah the good things he's trustworthy he's friendly he's kind he's patient all the things you
03:49:25.860
would expect from god okay then higher than this you start to contemplate god at a higher level that's
03:49:34.820
what hazeli did there's something within us you start contemplating existence you start thinking how
03:49:41.780
god created the universe determinism which we didn't get into today but this very important topic
03:49:46.260
for the future and you start contemplating how come i have a brain but my mind escapes
03:49:51.780
physicality what is this thing in me that god breathed into adam what is it we contemplate it we
03:50:00.180
reflect on it if my body was dissolved where would what would it be what would be left this is something
03:50:05.460
avicenius speculated he gave an interesting thought experiment called the hanging man he says imagine a
03:50:12.100
hanging man okay this hanging man he can't smell he can't see he can't hear he can't touch anything he's
03:50:18.820
completely suspended he has no awareness of his body is there still something avicenius said well
03:50:26.420
you'd have to say yes there's this inner stuff we have inside us remember i was telling you earlier
03:50:32.900
to think about an apple and you were thinking about an apple okay take out the apple what was thinking
03:50:37.300
about the apple there's this thing called mind there's this thing called consciousness there's this thing
03:50:41.860
that science physics logic cannot grab cannot put it in a test we can't weigh it we we're completely
03:50:49.700
stumped about it they call it the hard problem the the impossible problem but it's you have a first-hand
03:50:57.300
experience of it you know it directly this is what he's ultimately saying you have this connection
03:51:02.820
to something miraculous the sign of allah the miracle of allah that he put within you
03:51:10.260
and it's actually not within you can't even say it's within because your whole concept of in and out
03:51:14.980
comes from from it your entire all the ideas in your mind in out up down
03:51:21.620
uh it's all within this one thing okay this this this one thing that is indescribable only known
03:51:32.340
because me and you both have it every human being has it one thinker called it the beetle in the box
03:51:38.580
okay imagine beetles don't exist in the world i have a box and inside my box i could see a beetle
03:51:44.580
and you have a box nobody could look in your box okay you opened up the box and you see a beetle
03:51:53.220
now there are no beetles in the world only i have a beetle in my box you have a beetle in your box
03:51:57.300
every human being has a beetle in the box and i described the beetle to you you describe it to me
03:52:02.980
and we're like hey i have one too yeah the same thing but there's no beetles in the world it's one
03:52:07.940
thing this beetle in the box is how they were describing the mind there's this mind within us or
03:52:14.340
this point of awareness it's outside the reach of science logic it's a sign from allah when you go
03:52:24.340
to sleep what happens with this thing within you where does it go well you go into another world all
03:52:29.380
the time so ghazali was very profound on this because he was saying if you eliminate all things
03:52:36.660
even the contents of consciousness you're left with this one eternal undeniable truth you can't deny it
03:52:43.060
because it's known directly you're having a direct experience of it you're not using logic you're not
03:52:50.580
you're not using your senses you're not trying to you're not trusting your eyes you're hearing
03:53:00.180
the hierarchy of knowledge okay so this is this is another long topic i'll let you chime in what do you
03:53:05.540
think about all this i mean i know i threw a lot at you yeah i was wondering what you dream about
03:53:11.780
you made me think about how sleep is the cousin of death and how we do we do go to a different world
03:53:19.060
that was the question that got me into philosophy in the first place was where do we actually go when
03:53:23.140
we die because you're not aware so where where because your mind when you're awake is proof of
03:53:29.540
existence and where we are so if that's it if you are asleep and it's not in the it's not what you're
03:53:36.260
seeing and what you're around what you're touching and feeling in the real world where exactly do you
03:53:40.340
go and i didn't i didn't know what answer to this question before and then i started looking into
03:53:44.260
philosophy but i'm wondering what what do you what do you dream about specifically because my my dreams
03:53:49.220
recently have been extremely vivid and i think it does say a lot about you and i've been researching
03:53:54.180
into into young and how the subconscious mind can tell a lot about what you're really thinking when
03:53:59.540
you're when you're awake the other world you go to when you dream that reveals a lot of the truths
03:54:04.740
about this world that we're not aware of well think about this when you're dreaming you have an avatar
03:54:12.100
okay let's call it an avatar right you you're you're something in the dream right you're sneaker you're
03:54:20.900
maybe a 55 year old man maybe you're young maybe you're i don't know you could be anything right
03:54:25.460
when you're dreaming yes or no like whatever when you're having a dream it's like any world right
03:54:30.660
you're in any world in that dream you have consensus so let's say for instance i'm having a dream that
03:54:37.700
i'm podcasting with sneaker sneaker is not like hey man you're dreaming wake up man well i'm not even
03:54:43.300
here you know no you're giving me consensus you're playing along with my dream it could be that i go to
03:54:48.900
sleep tonight and i have a dream that i'm podcasting with sneaker and sneaker is not telling me it's a
03:54:52.580
dream he's cooperating with me to him he's also living this exact world he thinks this world is
03:54:58.100
real it's a hundred percent real we have a history like you could dream about anything and this
03:55:06.340
basically what i'm trying to tell you is you can't tell the difference between now and a dream
03:55:10.420
philosophers we can't tell the difference not no no philosopher has ever come up with the answer
03:55:15.380
of how do you know you're not dreaming no but no philosopher first time i heard that i laughed at
03:55:19.940
i think that's a ridiculous question of course we know we're not dreaming every time i gave an
03:55:24.020
answer i got shut down because in every dream you have continuity and you have consensus meaning
03:55:32.820
if i'm dreaming that i'm having a a podcast well i'm assuming in the dream that i had a breakfast
03:55:39.940
this morning i woke up i had my coffee i did my routine it's all in my memory even though it never
03:55:44.260
happened my lunch is digesting in my stomach even though i never ate it at the dream
03:55:49.620
started right now but guess what if i in my dream i ate a burger for lunch there's a burger in my
03:55:55.300
stomach but i never ate the burger it's just the dream started now there's a digested burger the whole
03:56:00.340
thing is set up perfectly that i'm the dream starts now and i have memories of a childhood that had never
03:56:07.860
and everything is cooperating with my dream everything is telling me hey uh the world around you is real
03:56:14.500
and then in the dream the dream ends my avatar goes poof but i don't say oh i died i don't exist i
03:56:23.540
went into nothingness no i wake up in another world and i wake up in another world so the quran is telling
0.99
03:56:30.580
us look this is all practice for when you really wake up because in islam don't forget in islam most
03:56:38.020
people don't know this this is the dream this world right now you're living right now is a dream
03:56:43.700
what yeah no yeah when you die you're gonna wake up because don't forget what the prophet
0.96
03:56:50.500
alayhi salam taught us he said die before you die and die before you die think about this the muslim
1.00
03:56:58.740
when he goes to sleep he's practicing dying when he wakes up he's practicing the resurrection
0.94
03:57:03.060
what does the what does god tell the people on judgment day he says to them how long were you
03:57:10.980
alive in this world and we say a day a day and a half part of a day
03:57:17.380
we're remembering this world like a dream let's say you had a dream that i don't know you went from
03:57:22.740
five years old to 99 years old and you were i don't know whatever you did in your career
03:57:27.780
that dream was just 20 minutes but for you that dream was a long time in the dream you don't feel
03:57:34.420
it's 20 minutes you understand you could dream that you went from childhood to old age in your
03:57:42.180
dream the dream was 20 minutes but for you it was 70 years so do you exist or does your soul exist
03:57:51.540
before you were born in this world i believe so yeah i believe the quran that's what the quran says yeah
03:57:56.660
so we've been dead a lot longer than we've been alive
03:58:04.740
we've been dead a lot longer than we've we've been alive why do you say that because if we've
03:58:09.460
existed before we were born what was that existence how could you describe that because if we're dead
03:58:14.900
after this life then we're dead what's all the time before we're born time is relative time is
03:58:20.740
relative so there's there's no time time is a projection of the mind that's a very complex topic
03:58:26.500
but look we pre-existed for how long allahu ala it could have been a microsecond it could have
03:58:34.580
been trillions of years actually the question is almost meaningless because time is whatever
03:58:41.940
look here's the thing about time okay imagine everything in the universe froze everything your
03:58:49.380
thoughts every molecule every if it froze for one second or one million years you wouldn't know the
03:58:55.380
difference time is a projection of the mind so when i move this glass from one side of my hand to the
03:59:02.180
other your brain is telling you look the glass is here in the right hand it's also in the left hand
03:59:09.380
how do you make sense of that well it was in the right hand at one time and the left hand at another
03:59:13.780
that's how your brain makes sense of the situation okay it's a very complex topic i don't want to get
03:59:18.020
too much into it because it's really taking us on a huge tangent but can't taught us that time is a
03:59:24.820
projection of the mind think about a movie okay if i give you a movie the whole movie is on this dvr
03:59:31.380
on this uh usb key okay the whole movie is on it when you watch the movie you're watching one part at a time
03:59:37.300
the projector is giving you an illusion of time even though the whole movie is here
03:59:47.380
the whole movie is here but when you watch the movie i'm like okay um the actor jumps off a
03:59:53.700
building you're like no he didn't jump off the building he's sleeping in his bed yeah he's sleeping
03:59:56.820
in his bed now later on he's jumping off and off a building time makes sense out of both states
04:00:04.820
if there's no movement there's no time okay so if everything froze there was no movement
04:00:12.900
ever time relies on movement okay if everything froze in the universe including every thought
04:00:20.420
there would be no time okay so time is relative time is a very complex topic so
04:00:24.420
i can't tell you how long we existed in pre-existence i have no idea i don't even know if that question is
04:00:28.660
valid the quran also alludes to that quran says a day in the afterlife is like one ten thousand years
04:00:34.580
a day in the afterlife is like fifty thousand years the quran changes the value
1.00
04:00:41.700
i think it's because time is relative now today we know it as a scientific fact okay the quran says
04:00:46.660
the time is relative and now today einstein proved don't forget don't forget let me tell you something
04:00:51.220
okay isaac newton said time is a constant it's the one thing that will never change isaac newton okay
04:01:00.580
a little over 100 years later einstein comes and disproves isaac newton he proves that time is
04:01:09.140
relative time depends on speed okay look you know they they take two two airplanes okay two atomic
04:01:19.700
sorry two atomic clocks and they take one on the airplane and they go around the world with it and they
04:01:25.460
come back and when they check the two atomic clocks they were set at the same time one of them is a
04:01:30.020
second slower because the faster you travel the slower time passes for you so imagine me and you
04:01:37.940
sneaker on on this we're on planet earth i go on a spaceship look i go on a spaceship around the moon at a
04:01:43.540
very fast rate when i come back you're going to be an old man and i'm going to be on that's real physics okay
04:01:49.860
the fact if i go on a spaceship really really fast i go around the first star and come right back okay
04:01:56.900
the first star is four light years away imagine i travel at the speed of light i go four years one
04:02:02.420
way four years back when i come back you're going to be you're going to be like dead a thousand years ago
04:02:14.180
time passed much faster for you than for me time is relative what does the quran say about time
04:02:19.460
quran says a day in the next life the afterlife is like 10 000 years so one day here sorry one day
1.00
04:02:28.980
there is like 10 000 years here okay one day there is like 50 000 years here it changes the value meaning
04:02:36.500
time is relative time is it's relative to your mind and so anyways this is a very profound topic it's
04:02:44.260
but here's the thing the quran cited what einstein and einstein proved it right
04:02:49.860
people don't know that okay a lot of people don't know this muslims don't know this but
0.98
04:02:55.220
isaac newton one of the greatest thinkers of all time he said look the one thing that will never change
04:03:00.820
is the flow of time time is a constant we could always trust that time flowed at the same rate
04:03:07.300
he was completely wrong the quran was completely right so why do you do mma
1.00
04:03:12.740
why why do i do mma yeah why why mma mma or ama mma like fighting fighting mma fighting yeah oh well
04:03:25.860
well you know it was like i did it as as a for enjoyment you know because i was bullied but then
04:03:31.780
i really got into it and i wanted to become a lawyer my my goal to be in life was to like to earn my living
04:03:37.940
was to be a lawyer okay but as i really got into mma it was my passion i never thought i'd make
04:03:42.740
money with it i never thought i could pay my bills with it i never thought i could make a career with
04:03:46.500
it and then ufc started getting bigger and bigger and we're training fighters now i never thought i'd
04:03:51.940
be able to train a fighter to go to ufc then i had one fighter go in ufc and then the the team
0.79
04:03:58.260
started getting more popular bigger we started growing we we grew exponentially the team is a
04:04:03.460
great success it's been i would say 20 years i've been more than 20 years i've been training fighters
04:04:08.340
to go to ufc i build a brand i'm doing what i love and when i started it the market was really
04:04:15.060
really low i'll tell you george champierre the first fight he did in ufc he got paid 3 000 to show
04:04:21.460
and 3 000 to win so total of six thousand dollars and we had trained over like four months for that
04:04:27.540
fight so i'm telling you we were broke like i was going to school i was like look i'm doing this
04:04:31.700
for fun because i like the guy he's a good guy i want to help him and i love the sport but i ain't
04:04:35.780
going to live off six thousand dollars every four months right we're not going to make it like that
04:04:39.540
so i was going to school i was getting my degree i was going to i was later on i went to become a lawyer
04:04:46.260
but mma pulled us in that direction we started making
04:04:49.780
uh enough to earn our living and follow our passion and do what we love
04:04:53.060
maybe on a bigger level like because you're talking about how you're making me think like
04:05:04.740
okay time is relative trying to figure out what really matters what's the reason that you still
04:05:10.180
do it today why not fully invest your your capabilities into philosophy or religion
04:05:17.860
what do i i do i i i study a lot of religion and philosophy every day i study thought i study
04:05:26.660
logic science history um that's all i do i do training and study training and study and one
04:05:34.260
day i'm refining my thoughts i write notes i have thoughts i i have uh uh outlooks that i discover i
04:05:42.020
i correspond with other thinkers i i'm refining my thoughts later on in life i want to write books
04:05:48.340
later on in life but i'm still refining my philosophies i'm very young still like i mean
04:05:52.660
for a philosopher i'm 44 now it's very young for a philosopher so i'm still refining my thoughts i'm
04:05:58.820
still um look my whole day is basically physical training and then mental training physical training
04:06:06.420
then mental just the physical training does the physical training help your mental training
04:06:12.420
um i think it keeps me sane because the thing is if you just do this eight hours a day what i'm doing
04:06:17.540
right now philosophers are going very crazy oh yeah of course of course because look when you go too
04:06:25.060
far you could lose touch with reality that's why i think people fear about philosophy which i understand
04:06:31.140
because not everybody in islam has to be a philosopher that's not true i don't agree with that but the
04:06:35.620
thing is we don't want to tell everybody don't do philosophy we need our philosophers okay like i remember
04:06:42.500
muhammad hijab years ago he was like telling me should i do philosophy i was like yes wholeheartedly
04:06:46.820
yes you have the mind for it you have the gift for it and look mashallah today he's a phd
04:06:51.860
he's how many times did he debate he has multiple phds yeah he has multiple he's also a philosophy philosophy
04:06:57.540
phd now i'll tell you something how many times has he had was he a great debater for the umba
04:07:03.220
so many times he's been an amazing debate but don't we need don't we live in the age of the internet
04:07:08.580
now there's no more just telling people look this is what we believe we have to tell them why we
04:07:13.380
believe it now you want to know why we believe it you got to get philosophical when i say philosophical
04:07:19.780
i don't mean blind follower of aristotle okay here's the thing here's why muslims think philosophy
0.83
04:07:26.020
is bad okay let me tell you why some muslims think philosophy before you tell me i have to go to the
1.00
04:07:31.140
bathroom so bad i drink a lot of water go for it don't worry brother go for it
04:07:45.140
i'm so happy to hear how many things are so supportive this is why i know shawuf is happening
04:09:11.680
So look, there's a famous book by Ghazali, okay?
04:09:14.560
It's called The Destruction of the Philosophers, okay?
04:09:16.820
Tahafut, the tahafut falsifa, meaning not the destruction of philosophers.
04:09:25.040
Frank Griffel says it should be translated as the slip-up of the philosophers, okay?
04:09:29.320
That's how Frank Griffel, he's a PhD in Islam, he says that's how it should be interpreted.
04:09:35.760
He's saying, look, Frank Griffel explains, he wrote a phenomenal book on Ghazali, he's
04:09:39.440
like, look, the whole Muslim world misunderstood Ghazali.
04:09:47.440
When he was saying the philosophers, he was referring to a group that blindly follow Aristotle,
04:10:08.120
Aristotle was the master of Alexander the Great.
04:10:12.040
Alexander the Great conquered the world, including the Middle East.
04:10:18.440
And he brought, why do you think, why do you think the Bible is written in Greek?
04:10:29.540
Now, they spread their philosophies, they spread Hellenistic thinking, Greek thinking.
04:10:37.180
Christianity came and conquered the Middle East.
0.98
04:10:40.600
When Christianity conquered the Middle East, philosophy books were made forbidden.
04:10:51.480
The Muslims secured the philosophy books and harbored them.
04:10:57.940
If it wasn't for the Muslims, and I dare anybody to challenge me on this, if it wasn't for the Muslims,
1.00
04:11:11.040
The Muslims, it wasn't haram to read philosophy.
0.98
04:11:14.340
For the Christians, who just conquered Rome.
0.91
04:11:17.920
Because don't forget, the Greeks influenced the Europeans.
04:11:44.240
Now the Muslims, they were the masters of paper at the time.
1.00
04:11:53.480
When the Christian Europe was in the dark ages, we were in the golden ages.
1.00
04:12:10.880
Neil deGrasse Tyson said something very accurate.
04:12:14.560
He said, there was never a greater golden age before or a greater golden age after.
04:12:21.220
The amount of discoveries the Muslims did in terms of science, math, and logic was never repeated ever in history, ever again.
1.00
04:12:31.660
The Muslims protected philosophy, elaborated the philosophy, and we had a boom in technology, science, etc.
04:12:42.240
So he admits that the Islamic golden age was one of the most important ages for philosophy and algebra?
04:12:58.260
He asks on stage, he's like, why do you think three quarters of the stars are Arabic names?
04:13:04.160
He's like screaming, and he got so much hate for this.
04:13:12.340
I'm not sure what he is, but he's telling you, look, algebra is an Arabic word.
04:13:20.600
Zero, one, two, three, four, five, the one you grew up using?
04:13:38.560
But the Brazilians were so good at it, we call it Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
04:13:43.040
The Arabs were so good with numbers, they're far better than the Romans, that we call
1.00
04:13:56.660
Now, Baghdad, you know, people want to go to Harvard to study, right?
1.00
04:14:01.080
Baghdad, at the time, was the greatest university in the world, in history.
04:14:06.640
Some people say it was the first real university.
04:14:09.520
People went from all over the world to study in Arabia, in the Muslim worlds.
04:14:13.820
If you wanted to be a scholar, you had to go to the Muslim world.
1.00
04:14:17.280
Like today, if you want to be a scholar, you got to go to the top universities somewhere
04:14:22.980
The Muslims were incredible at medicine, science, math, history, everything, philosophy, etc.
04:14:27.960
Now, some Muslims were considered blind followers of Aristotle.
04:14:46.820
Now, Ghazali was saying, look, guys, you can't do that.
04:15:02.640
But I'm going to use modern day language, okay?
04:15:04.700
He said, look, you can't just say it's true because Aristotle said it.
04:15:19.900
Today, philosophy means somebody who formally studies logic in university or college.
04:15:27.720
When Ghazali was using the word, he meant people who blindly follow Aristotle, not people
04:15:39.160
You know how much, like, logic is very important in Islam, supremely important, okay?
04:15:46.600
So Ghazali was trying to say, look, don't be a blind follower of Aristotle.
04:15:51.000
That's haram, not philosophy in the way we use it today.
04:15:57.440
If logic is haram, why don't you make arithmetic haram?
04:16:03.100
Why don't you make calculus haram while you're at it?
04:16:11.720
The Quran is constantly, there's over 300 verses in the Quran that are asking you to
04:16:18.940
There's over 300 verses in the Quran that ask you to think deeply, reflect, or use your
04:16:26.160
I think it's a certain group of Muslims that don't want to have to challenge their own
04:16:30.320
So instead of thinking deeply, they just say everything is haram.
04:16:39.260
If Muslims don't grow wings and start using logic, if they don't grow wings, if they don't
1.00
04:16:46.300
get their black belt in logic soon, they won't survive in this age of Dawah.
1.00
04:16:54.640
See, I'm explaining to you today why the Quran says the whole world praises Allah.
04:17:02.320
I'm explaining to you, it's like how every number praises the number one.
04:17:09.860
Even though, you have to remember, no analogy is perfect.
04:17:15.600
Because if I say Sneeko is like Sneeko, well, that's not an analogy.
04:17:19.840
If I say Sneeko is like a computer, well, now I'm making an analogy.
04:17:37.380
Because analogies, by definition, break sooner or later, okay?
04:17:42.560
If I say Sneeko is Sneeko, that's not an analogy.
04:17:45.060
If I say Sneeko is like a computer, that's an analogy.
04:17:48.880
There are similarities between Sneeko and the computer, and there are differences.
04:17:52.500
What I'm telling you is, like how every number screams the number one, is a reference to the number one.
04:17:58.800
That's how all of creation praises God, in a similar fashion.
04:18:02.440
I'm telling you, Muslims need to start thinking at that level if they're going to survive in the Dawah scene.
1.00
04:18:10.000
Because a lot of people tell me, oh, you know, like they really enjoy my Dawah, but I'm not a full-time in Dawah.
04:18:15.200
But I'm telling you, the only reason I have an up on most of you, on some of you, is because I studied logic, and I studied the Muslim thinkers.
0.97
04:18:27.420
And believe me, they had very profound discussions about existence and God.
04:18:31.420
But the Muslims forgot, look, the Muslims used to be far more brilliant, okay?
1.00
04:18:41.100
Then they got chopped down by the Mongols.
0.97
04:18:43.260
The Mongols came and really did a number on us, okay?
1.00
04:18:50.860
After that, the Muslims started adopting Christian attitudes that, look, we fell in love.
0.98
04:18:59.300
Maybe God sent Genghis Khan to us as a punishment.
04:19:05.200
No more of this dunya studying and all that, okay?
0.84
04:19:12.980
Because the Mongols really was a major fitna, a major challenge to the Muslims, okay?
1.00
04:19:18.180
Like, literally, the Muslims were being eradicated off the face of the earth.
04:19:22.020
People at that time thought it was the end of the world.
04:19:27.740
1,200. What were you, this is during the, Genghis Khan's rule?
04:19:33.200
Genghis Khan, actually, Genghis Khan, actually, he referred to himself as the punishment of God to the Muslims.
04:19:40.860
Because in Islam, look, Genghis Khan can't kill me unless Allah gives him authority to.
04:19:46.160
So he could, he could be interpreted as our punishment.
04:19:55.240
Now, Genghis Khan, he interpreted it as, I'm your punishment from God.
04:20:02.200
Because no man could do this to you unless Allah, because he understood our religion.
0.60
04:20:06.760
He had advisors who explained to him our religion.
04:20:09.540
Now, don't forget, another, another interesting thing.
04:20:14.600
The Mongols would have took over the entire world.
1.00
04:20:16.800
People don't know this, but the Mongols converted to Islam.
04:20:32.400
Anyways, there's a lot of interesting history between the Muslims and the, and the, the Mongols.
04:20:39.300
Actually, there's a, there's a American who did a great job on this.
04:20:49.240
He did a phenomenal work on the, I think, is it him?
04:20:53.060
He did a really nice piece on the Mongols and Muslims.
04:21:24.340
He gives you like incredible nuggets of history.
04:21:37.420
So anyways, like I was saying, I think the best Taoisees in the future are going to be,
04:21:43.320
they're going to have a background in philosophy.
04:21:46.740
To keep up with the pace of the internet and social media for sure.
04:21:50.920
You know, there's so much about Islam that, like, people don't even, the Quran is so deterministic.
04:22:05.180
The atheist believes in determinism and the Muslim believes in determinism.
0.99
04:22:14.200
There's not a lot of difference between atheism and Islam.
04:22:18.700
Except we believe there's one God you can't doubt.
04:22:30.860
Christianity, you can interpret it as three gods, you know, because they're going to say,
04:22:39.720
If you read the Quran, look, if you read the Quran, the Quran says,
04:22:42.460
if Allah wanted a son, he could have any son.
0.65
04:22:49.620
We don't say Allah has a son, but me personally, I think like Azali.
04:23:01.720
I'm not saying Allah has a son, stagfallah.
1.00
04:23:14.060
So is that why you think Islam and Christianity, I mean, atheism are closer because it's zero and one.
04:23:21.340
And then Judaism is like 1.333333 with interest, percent.
0.90
04:23:28.540
Well, Judaism moved from, because Judaism, if you study Judaism, they moved from polytheism to monotheism.
04:23:40.280
Because if you read their interpretations, they say there are other gods.
04:23:54.600
They just said, we have a covenant with Yahweh.
04:23:58.780
And then later on, it evolved to, no, there's only Yahweh.
0.88
04:24:05.880
There's a lot of debate on that because they're saying some Jews believe, no, the Jews of old believed there were other gods, but we don't have a covenant with them.
04:24:19.240
I believe so, but it's not a clear-cut monotheism.
04:24:23.200
But in that sense, if you agree with the Jews who say, no, there was always just one god.
0.81
04:24:30.060
We should do one in the future about the subjects today that you didn't want to cover, like time, mathematics.
04:24:45.900
Next time, we should talk about determinism, I think.
04:24:48.900
Next time, when we have more time, we'll chill.
04:25:00.260
Determinism is something so important I think Muslims have to master.
1.00
04:25:05.680
Listen, I don't think you can understand the Quran without understanding determinism.
04:25:09.760
I know it's sad to say because people are going to be like, no, what is he talking about?
04:25:15.000
What's the first thing in our tradition that Allah created?
0.96
04:25:21.480
The pen is going to write everything that happens from now to Judgment Day.
04:25:31.140
You can't be a Muslim without believing qadarallah.
1.00
04:25:35.680
And one day we're going to have to talk about, look, okay, that's what the Quran claims.
04:25:42.280
Everything the Quran says, we have to have a logic to understand why the Quran says that.
04:25:51.200
Even the atheists will say, we agree with determinism.
0.85
04:25:59.460
Well, I've had a lot of friends convert to Islam, sure.
04:26:23.040
You could throw him off a building and he'll still get up and wrestle.
04:26:30.200
Like, you could wake him up at four in the morning and he could be in a burning building
04:26:37.660
and you shoot a double leg on him, he's going to sprawl, he's going to take your back.
04:26:40.980
Like, he's trained to fight from a young child.
04:26:48.580
I don't think Miocic has that level of thinking and training in him, lifelong dedication.
04:26:53.480
Because, like, Jon Jones comes from a family of wrestlers and he grew up every year in summer camp training wrestling.
04:27:03.720
Yeah, he did some of that stuff, but he was always every summer in wrestling camp.
04:27:14.160
I think he might be just coming in motivated for a check.
04:27:20.620
Like, I think Jon is the weight just head and shoulders above.
04:27:31.120
That's the one guy I think Jon has to worry about.
04:27:33.440
Because Aspinall is too big, too strong, too fast, too well-trained.
04:27:36.660
Aspinall also has been doing jiu-jitsu and striking since he's born.
04:27:40.320
He's just younger, bigger, and, you know, I would say his wrestling is very dangerous.
04:27:49.840
I still think Jon has a fighting chance against Aspinall.
04:27:56.640
Especially late in Jon's career, Aspinall is in his prime.
04:28:00.840
Aspinall, man, nobody could do one round with the man.
04:28:06.880
And why does Jon need to risk it all for a guy like that?
04:28:14.820
And he has a fight that he might not win with Aspinall.
04:28:24.220
Jon Jones is going to avoid it for the rest of his career?
04:28:27.740
I don't think he ever steps in the octagon with Aspinall.
04:28:51.080
Because you have to defend the title two, three times a year.
04:29:05.460
Everybody's always talking to you about defending your title.
04:29:18.140
Like, at one point, I told George to retire on the octagon.
04:29:31.140
Because he was on the fence whether he should retire or not.
04:29:33.960
It was a difficult time for him mentally because he wants to live his life also.
04:29:38.680
People think, oh, you just get up and train for six weeks and work for a fight, defend your title.
04:29:51.300
And you have to put a lot of your life on pause.
04:29:55.380
And, you know, you need a break from it for a while.
04:30:05.860
It's probably a few million dollars at least, minimum.
04:30:12.580
Don't forget, John Jones went up to heavyweight.
04:30:19.360
Why would you fight the most dangerous heavyweight in history?
04:30:22.740
I think Aspinall is going to be the most dangerous heavyweight in history.
04:30:25.900
Why would you fight that guy in his prime and your weight class above and that guy can scramble your brains, take away your health?
04:30:31.160
Like, I just don't think it makes any logical sense.
04:30:34.760
If Aspinall wants to be as great as John, let him do what John did.
04:30:48.460
Which doesn't make sense based on how long they've been in the UFC.
04:31:07.580
And I think, I don't think John is physically that old.
04:31:12.440
I think he could keep doing it for another 10 years.
04:31:20.580
I'm sure he's making money many ways with his brand.
04:31:24.700
You know, I'm sure he's making millions a year.
04:31:29.240
What is he got to get in the cage, risk it all, risk his chin, risk his health.
04:31:34.400
You know, every time you go in there, man, you might get knocked out, laid out.
04:31:43.520
I think a champion is ready to adapt to anything.
04:31:46.800
No matter what's going on, he's always finding a way to win.
04:31:59.400
If there's one second left, they're trying to win.
04:32:02.600
Whether they're ahead or not, they're trying to win.
04:32:08.340
So, I really feel like John has that more than Miocic.
04:32:15.660
Some people call him the greatest heavyweight of all time.
04:32:18.740
I don't think he's the greatest heavyweight of all time.
04:32:20.520
I think it's either Aspinall or Jon Jones, but depending on what Aspinall does in the rest of his career, which I think he will be the greatest heavyweight of all time.
04:32:31.020
I used to say Anganu was the greatest heavyweight of all time.
04:32:44.540
He's going to run off into the sunset and come back when it's worth it.
04:32:52.620
And he's not going to be bullied into taking a fight he doesn't need to take a fight.
0.71
04:32:56.760
You know, everybody's trying to bully him to fight Aspinall.
04:33:00.580
It's the fight everybody wants to see, but Jon doesn't need it.
04:33:20.920
If I knew it was in New York, I might have popped in.
04:33:30.220
So for me, when I have a weekend at home with the family, it's a good time for me.
04:33:53.640
What did you think about the Joe Rogan podcast?
04:34:04.200
One of them was super controversial and went crazy viral because we talked about science
04:34:11.820
I think that the topics we touched on were too profound.
04:34:14.900
So a lot of people were like, it doesn't make sense.
04:34:17.780
But believe me when I tell you, everything I said on that podcast is philosophically sound.
04:34:22.900
And I challenge any PhD to revise that and have a discussion with me because everything I brought up is like bedrock philosophy.
04:34:34.600
But people don't understand the problem of induction.
04:34:36.540
And I get it because it's a very, very niche topic.
04:34:39.220
It's not something you learn in any other science.
04:34:44.500
But in philosophy, you learn something called the problem of induction.
04:34:50.060
These are things that if you don't understand, I don't think you can understand the Quran.
04:34:54.820
Certain things about the Quran, certain things about the Quran is referring to the problem of induction.
04:35:00.040
God is actually, the Quran is asking you to reflect on the patterns and irregularities we see in nature.
04:35:14.520
So many great thinkers, Muslim thinkers wrote about it.
04:35:17.220
But today, the Muslims don't talk about it no more.
04:35:26.160
I've never even heard, I've never heard induction before until just now.
04:35:34.280
It's not a well-known word in everyday language.
04:35:36.420
But it's definitely a word we use in philosophy.
04:35:39.400
Look, induction just means that you learned it by, okay, how can I explain it to you?
04:35:47.640
Induction means you went from a small sample and then you made a generalization.
04:35:54.040
So, for instance, let's say, I say all frogs can swim.
04:35:59.620
Have you seen every frog in all the world in all histories?
04:36:05.360
You know, there's going to be frogs a thousand years from now.
04:36:10.080
Well, no, I didn't see all the frogs in all the world that ever lived.
04:36:13.660
But I saw a bunch of frogs in this pond and they could all swim.
04:36:17.300
A friend from Australia wrote me a letter saying the frogs that he saw in his pond can swim.
04:36:22.100
And my friend from the U.S. wrote me a letter saying, you know, I networked.
04:36:25.780
I asked a bunch of scientists around the world, hey, the frogs in your country, do they swim?
04:36:55.420
You use the type of logic that we call induction.
04:36:57.540
Okay, so we used to believe, so induction can be wrong, Sneeko.
04:37:03.360
So for instance, we used to believe that all flamingos were pink.
04:37:08.800
All scientists in the world thought flamingos are pink.
04:37:17.760
You know why the flamingos are pink in our side of the world?
04:37:35.700
Future events can disprove an inductive belief.
04:37:39.080
So an inductive belief is never as strong as a deductive belief.
04:37:44.760
A deductive belief is when you go from something general to specific.
04:37:49.260
Okay, so let's say I say the most classic example.
04:37:53.240
If I tell you, Sneeko, all men are mortal.
1.00
04:38:20.680
If premise one is true and premise two is true,
04:38:32.040
then it's for certain that Aristotle is mortal.
04:38:49.080
I get emails and messages about it all the time
04:38:59.680
We talk about fighting, MMA, fitness, and all that.
04:39:03.800
and usually I get a lot of philosophical questions
04:39:16.140
it's good that you want to talk about determinism next time
04:39:24.840
Yeah, I think determinism is very central to Islam.
04:39:35.540
Determinism is also a very powerful proof for God.
04:39:39.800
When I talk about determinism with atheists,
1.00
04:41:05.020
Now that we have each other's numbers and stuff,
04:46:23.240
All alone, open the eye, burn the page, my little dark age.
