SNEAKO - SNEAKO X MOHAMMED HIJAB X AKHI AYMAN X MUSLIM LANTERN

00:00:00 It was always the water, especially living in, you know, if you are in Egypt or here or there.

00:00:05 I stayed there for a while, a long time there.

00:00:08 So, yeah, there was always the water.

00:00:10 It was never the food.

00:00:13 How was the camera?

00:00:15 Different parts of the world, to be honest.

00:00:16 Some of my life in Morocco, some of my life in Egypt, some of my life in Austria.

00:00:20 So, like, yeah, different places.

00:00:21 I think it's good.

00:00:22 All over the place.

00:00:23 By the way, we're live right now.

00:00:24 We just went live.

00:00:26 Okay, you should tell me in the beginning.

00:00:27 You don't want to expose private information here, you know?

00:00:30 Okay, good.

00:00:31 You didn't say anything, did you?

00:00:32 No, no, no, no.

00:00:33 Okay, okay.

00:00:33 Nothing important. 0.68

00:00:34 You're just going to bomb a building? 0.60

00:00:35 Yeah.

00:00:37 That part is okay, you know.

00:00:38 The only thing I like.

00:00:39 I'm not a private.

00:00:40 That part, they can know.

00:00:41 That's okay.

00:00:42 So, do you have the explosive?

00:00:45 Depends which type, you know? 0.93

00:00:49 You know, you're a Muslim now, so you can make these jokes, you know? 1.00

00:00:52 If you're not, you know? 0.89

00:00:53 We would have the jokes.

00:00:54 We'd be scared to make these jokes.

00:00:56 Well, I did before I was Muslim, and it was very bad. 1.00

00:00:58 Oh, you did it before, yeah?

00:01:00 You shouldn't do that.

00:01:01 You did it the other way around, yeah? 0.89

00:01:02 Only Muslims can make these kind of jokes, or else you will get jumped, you know? 1.00

00:01:05 Did you already pray Isha? 0.88

00:01:07 Alhamdulillah.

00:01:08 You did?

00:01:08 All done.

00:01:09 Okay.

00:01:09 I finished praying, then I came.

00:01:11 Okay.

00:01:12 Okay, so the prayer room, it could fit about three people at a time.

00:01:15 So, the tamalee, it's going to be a little tough to have, like, the whole...

00:01:18 No, no, it's fine.

00:01:19 Yeah, we can do, like, we can split it.

00:01:21 We can split it.

00:01:21 So, there's a prayer room here, you mean?

00:01:24 Oh, yeah, there's a prayer room.

00:01:25 Oh, okay.

00:01:26 I'm going to sit down here.

00:01:29 We can do it after.

00:01:31 Well, yeah, I'm glad you made it, man.

00:01:33 Good to meet you in the flesh.

00:01:34 Alhamdulillah, man.

00:01:35 Alhamdulillah.

00:01:35 You guys still here?

00:01:36 Yeah, no, no, you stay where you are, man.

00:01:38 Where are you going to go?

00:01:38 I'll just come a bit closer, that's it.

00:01:41 I think it's fine like that.

00:01:42 Look, he's the main guy, but he's always humble.

00:01:44 No, you're the main guy, you're the main guy.

00:01:46 He's always humble, you know?

00:01:49 We're just visitors, man.

00:01:51 But this time, you guys are visiting us, you know?

00:01:54 We're visitors in the restaurant, and you're visitors in the UK, you know?

00:01:58 How do you guys find it here?

00:02:00 In London?

00:02:01 The UK in general.

00:02:02 We've only been here about six hours.

00:02:03 People keep asking us, but we've only been here like six hours.

00:02:05 We've only been here so far.

00:02:06 What have you seen?

00:02:07 Have you been to Moscow?

00:02:08 Have you been?

00:02:08 What did you do?

00:02:09 We just went to the job.

00:02:10 It was very gracious to take us around.

00:02:12 We had Brokavtar to...

00:02:14 Yes, how do you say Brokavtar?

00:02:15 Oh, yeah.

00:02:16 Brok fast. 0.98

00:02:17 Brok fast, yeah. 1.00

00:02:18 Brok fast at the Somalian restaurant.

00:02:19 It was really good.

00:02:20 Alhamdulillah.

00:02:21 We had the Federation.

00:02:25 Delicious.

00:02:27 I don't know.

00:02:27 That means a whole lot of food.

00:02:28 Yeah.

00:02:28 A whole lot of meat.

00:02:29 It sounds political, that food.

00:02:32 But it was cool.

00:02:33 That's all we did.

00:02:33 It was a political dish.

00:02:37 You have to do that.

00:02:38 Now I've got to do what I can.

00:02:40 Brok.

00:02:41 How is it going to go?

00:02:42 The United States of America, bro.

00:02:44 It's like the United States of America is comparable with Western Europe.

00:02:47 Yeah.

00:02:47 It's not comparable with any one country in Western Europe.

00:02:51 It's comparable with the whole of Western Europe.

00:02:52 But there's such a massive country.

00:02:55 Like we're talking about in terms of population size, in terms of geography, which the United

00:02:59 States of America would be comparable to like Germany, France, Belgium, United Kingdom,

00:03:07 all those countries together.

00:03:09 So it depends on where you're comparing.

00:03:11 Like you'd have to look at city by city and state by state.

00:03:14 It's not like...

00:03:14 Yeah.

00:03:14 I was telling him before on the stream, something like this is like it's from countries in one

00:03:19 country, right?

00:03:19 Because they have different laws when it comes to even gun laws or different marriage laws. 0.53

00:03:24 Even though it's one country, but they have all of these different laws.

00:03:26 So yeah.

00:03:27 Uh, yeah.

00:03:28 Probably.

00:03:29 It depends on which part you went to, isn't it?

00:03:30 Which part did you go to?

00:03:31 No, I've been to, I've been to like, I don't know, maybe 10 states altogether.

00:03:34 Okay.

00:03:35 I've been to, uh...

00:03:36 One more latte.

00:03:38 Thank you, brother.

00:03:39 Cappuccino's here.

00:03:40 Huh?

00:03:41 Do you want a coffee?

00:03:42 Do you want something?

00:03:42 No, no, just water.

00:03:43 Okay, okay.

00:03:44 You want some shisha? 1.00

00:03:45 No.

00:03:46 No.

00:03:47 I don't care.

00:03:47 Do you guys have that here?

00:03:49 You know, I hope you don't.

00:03:51 It's a setup.

00:03:51 You're doing good.

00:03:52 You got it.

00:03:52 Yeah, how are you, brother?

00:03:55 You good?

00:03:56 Yeah, alhamdulillah.

00:03:58 Coffee?

00:03:59 Any drinks?

00:03:59 I'll get you one more.

00:04:00 Water, just water.

00:04:01 A couple more coffees, sir.

00:04:02 I need to wake up.

00:04:03 I'm not a coffee person.

00:04:04 Yeah, more coffee.

00:04:05 No, no, no, just water, man.

00:04:06 Whatever, yeah.

00:04:07 Some espresso shots will be good.

00:04:08 Just one or a couple?

00:04:10 Like five.

00:04:11 Yeah, do we get some more waters as well, please?

00:04:13 I'll get more waters.

00:04:14 I'll get more espresso shots.

00:04:14 I've got two more lights coming up the door.

00:04:17 Yeah.

00:04:18 Two more? 0.74

00:04:18 Yeah.

00:04:19 And then the rest will be espresso shots.

00:04:21 InshaAllah.

00:04:21 And then I'll get, any other drinks for you?

00:04:23 Water, that's it.

00:04:24 Any moktoes or anything?

00:04:25 Water.

00:04:25 That's all good.

00:04:26 I've got no desserts coming up the door.

00:04:27 The one thing I definitely realized Ramadan so far, so day five or something like that, 0.91

00:04:32 day six, is that little pleasures like coffee are so much more enjoyable now.

00:04:37 I've never been able to appreciate it like that.

00:04:39 I was used to, throughout the day, drinking coffees or maybe having a cigarette, chewing

00:04:44 gum, stuff like that.

00:04:45 Now, not being able to do any of that at all, even we had chocolates in the hotel room

00:04:50 and I was looking at it like it was, like it was treasure.

00:04:53 Yeah.

00:04:54 It looked like diamonds.

00:04:56 I've realized that, I was just telling the brothers that I, in general, I just do this

00:04:59 one meal a day.

00:05:00 Not because it's one meal a day or a diet or something like that, but this is what I generally

00:05:04 do.

00:05:04 And I've realized that always food tastes much better.

00:05:07 You're in good shape, inshaAllah.

00:05:08 Alhamdulillah.

00:05:11 I've realized that food tastes a lot better, wallahi.

00:05:13 If you eat one time a day, the food tastes different.

00:05:17 You can eat the same thing, literally, the same meal, the same food from the same place,

00:05:21 but just try it one time.

00:05:22 You don't eat for a long period of time and you eat just one time a day.

00:05:25 And compare that if you eat three times a day, breakfast, dinner, this and that, food

00:05:29 doesn't taste the same.

00:05:30 So this is like definitely an effect that you have in Ramadan, you know, subhanAllah. 0.98

00:05:34 But this is another important thing to keep in mind.

00:05:36 Ramadan is not for eating, you know.

00:05:39 And it's something, you know, unfortunately, when Muslims will look at it in a different way. 0.98

00:05:43 We're looking at the month as a month of eating.

00:05:45 It's a month of fasting, you know, a month of coming close to Allah Azawajal. 0.98

00:05:49 And you see people break the fast and then eat these large amounts of food and then you're

00:05:52 not able to pray.

00:05:53 You're not able to wake up good in Fajr time. 1.00

00:05:56 You're not able to wake up later on, next morning.

00:05:58 So you don't have the energy to do things during the day.

00:06:01 So it would affect your, especially the different types of food that people eat, you know, all

00:06:05 this oily different types of foods that will not be good for you.

00:06:08 Can you explain what you were telling me about the dopamine?

00:06:11 I mean, I keep forgetting what the word is for the book, but...

00:06:15 Yeah, I'm going to speak to the author.

00:06:18 I've got a podcast with her as well.

00:06:19 Oh, you do?

00:06:20 The book is called Dopamine Nation.

00:06:22 Dopamine Nation. 0.99

00:06:23 Yeah.

00:06:23 And she was basically, what you're saying there is exactly what she was saying as well.

00:06:26 Like, she's basically explaining how that works in scientific terms.

00:06:31 How, like, you know, effectively, she's got a very interesting way of putting it that

00:06:35 in order to, as a remedy for pain, that you need to embrace pain.

00:06:41 Okay.

00:06:42 And she uses fasting as a way of doing that. 0.99

00:06:44 So feeling the hunger, feeling the thirst, for example, in our context in Ramadan, is

00:06:48 a good way because the problem that we face in our times is a problem of overconsumption.

00:06:53 We eat too much.

00:06:54 We consume too much.

00:06:56 There's too much, you know, going on in terms of social media.

00:06:58 There's too much going on.

00:06:59 We have too much options.

00:07:00 Everything's readily available for us.

00:07:02 There's a very interesting quote in that book, which was, it's like a cacti in the rainforest.

00:07:08 I found a very powerful quote because a cactus is meant to, obviously, it's resourceful in

00:07:13 a desert.

00:07:14 That's why if you cut it open, it's got water inside of it.

00:07:16 It's trying to be as resourceful as possible.

00:07:19 The human being loses his ability to be resourceful when you give him all the water he needs in this

00:07:24 analogy, right?

00:07:26 So because we have everything, we don't have to work as hard for the things that we need

00:07:29 to get.

00:07:30 So things become actually not pleasurable for us.

00:07:35 So this is irony that is created.

00:07:38 So she says it's like you're being hedonistic, but what is actually being produced is anhedonia,

00:07:43 which is the opposite of hedonism.

00:07:44 You're losing the pleasure.

00:07:46 Yes, subhanAllah.

00:07:47 So you're doing everything to get more pleasure and then you end up with getting more pleasure.

00:07:55 What I was saying about that one meal, this is a perfect example.

00:07:58 And that's because your dopamine receptors are alert.

00:08:06 They're ready, right?

00:08:07 They're not being overly, they're not being used too much because the more you use them,

00:08:11 the more you lose them in this case.

00:08:13 SubhanAllah.

00:08:13 You know, and subhanAllah, you know, teaches us that we have so much capacity as human beings.

00:08:21 Right.

00:08:21 But we pretend we don't.

00:08:22 Like, for example, you know, Fajr prayer.

00:08:26 It's difficult for you to wake up to every day.

00:08:28 Yeah, to wake up to.

00:08:28 So, but suhoor, suhoor, you'd wake up so easily, right?

00:08:33 Every single Muslim, right? 0.97

00:08:34 I haven't even been setting an alarm.

00:08:35 I go to bed at like maybe 2 a.m.

00:08:37 And I'm waking up automatically at 5 a.m. every single day right now.

00:08:40 So, okay.

00:08:41 So what's the difference now?

00:08:41 You're waking up for food.

00:08:42 It's okay.

00:08:43 It's easy.

00:08:43 You're able to do it.

00:08:44 You know, you're happy.

00:08:45 You're enjoying your meal.

00:08:46 And then you're praying Fajr. 0.89

00:08:47 But when it comes to outside Ramadan, you're not doing it.

00:08:49 Also bad habits.

00:08:50 You know, a lot of people quit music.

00:08:51 So many different things.

00:08:52 Haram things that they would be doing in normal days.

00:08:55 When Ramadan hits, you leave all of these things for one month.

00:08:58 And you're able to do it.

00:08:59 You know, there's a lot of like people who are, they would say addicted.

00:09:03 Let's use their own terminology to things like pornography and these type of things.

00:09:07 But look at them in Ramadan. 0.98

00:09:10 In Ramadan, they will be able to actually last a whole month without doing that specific thing.

00:09:14 And they would say.

00:09:15 I want you to keep moving around.

00:09:16 I want to be able to see.

00:09:17 No, nothing.

00:09:18 I'm telling you.

00:09:19 Is that what you're supposed to realize during Ramadan too?

00:09:21 Like how much you don't need those little necessities too?

00:09:24 That I'm realizing more, that I have more mental capacity and that I should have more resistance.

00:09:30 Like fasting from water and food is making me like, I'm scrolling on my phone less.

00:09:34 Because I'm not, like I'm more aware of.

00:09:39 Yes, subhanAllah.

00:09:41 It's almost everything that we do in Ramadan.

00:09:43 Like the taraweeh that people pray. 0.93

00:09:45 Generally, people would not be doing this voluntary prayer during the night.

00:09:48 And it's highly recommendable from an Islamic point of view.

00:09:51 You know, one of the sahabas, the Prophet ﷺ praised, right?

00:09:54 In Umar, he praised him.

00:09:56 Then he said, Ni'ma Rajul, if he prayed in the nighttime, he will even be better, right?

00:09:59 And this is one of the companions, like one of the best people to walk the earth, right?

00:10:03 But still, he said he would be better if he were to do that night prayer.

00:10:07 We as Muslims, if we speak generally to the Muslims, okay, pray in the night prayer.

00:10:10 That is hard, difficult to wake up.

00:10:11 But in Ramadan, you'll see Muslims doing it.

00:10:14 You'll see just the average Muslim going to the masjid, praying in taraweeh and doing that.

00:10:17 So it does show us that we've got so much capacity and we've got so much potential.

00:10:22 But what is different in Ramadan and outside Ramadan is that you're understanding that this is a blessed time, etc.

00:10:27 Other than that, you do have the capacity to quit these things that you're claiming you're addicted to,

00:10:31 to pray during the night, to recite the Quran, to finish the Quran in the month.

00:10:35 Multiple times people are doing this in Ramadan.

00:10:37 Outside Ramadan, you're not touching the Quran. 0.98

00:10:39 Okay, what is the difference between, this is a question, okay.

00:10:41 Do you become a different human being in Ramadan?

00:10:44 Or are you the same human being that existed in the month before and the month after, right?

00:10:50 So that's why you see people sometimes using terms like Ramadan Muslim.

00:10:54 It's not good terms.

00:10:55 What does that mean, Ramadan Muslim?

00:10:56 Somebody that only is on their deen for this month and then during Eid they start drinking?

00:11:01 Yeah, yeah.

00:11:01 You can even use that term for many things, like hajj Muslims as well.

00:11:04 Some Muslims will do everything and say, I go to hajj, I've been purified now.

00:11:07 So, you know, I'm going to go back to doing what I'm doing.

00:11:09 But the thing is, we want the people to be good in Ramadan.

00:11:12 Even if they're only good in Ramadan, isn't that better than them not being good at all? 1.00

00:11:16 So in the end, it's still good.

00:11:18 But the thing is this, right?

00:11:19 Why is it only in Ramadan are we able to do these things?

00:11:23 So you're asking, is that what you should realize in Ramadan, that you have capacity?

00:11:27 Well, in Ramadan, so many things that you benefit.

00:11:29 You learn...

00:11:30 Patience.

00:11:31 There's so many things that, like innumerable things, right?

00:11:34 But Allah Azza wa Jal, He mentions one thing.

00:11:37 He says,

00:11:37 La'alakum tattaqun.

00:11:39 Kutiba alaykum usiyamu kama kutiba ala aladhiya man qablikum, la'alakum tattaqun.

00:11:42 Fasting has been prescribed or written upon you, just like it was on the nations that preceded you. 0.68

00:11:48 And then Allah says,

00:11:48 La'alakum tattaqun.

00:11:49 That you may attain taqwa.

00:11:51 Thank you, bro.

00:11:56 We got the whole...

00:11:57 Yeah, I want you to keep moving, too, if you can.

00:12:02 I don't know what he's talking about.

00:12:04 So, la'alakum tattaqun.

00:12:07 Is that, excuse me, attain taqwa.

00:12:10 And taqwa is like God consciousness.

00:12:11 And I think this is like the most...

00:12:15 Because like, your weight, I shouldn't even be doing that.

00:12:19 You're not around other people.

00:12:20 The fact that you're not engaging with other...

00:12:22 Only Allah Azzawajal sees you. 1.00

00:12:24 That's why Allah says that fasting is for me.

00:12:29 Allah Azzawajal. 0.96

00:12:30 Other people, they don't see you.

00:12:31 So, you develop this God consciousness.

00:12:34 When I'm alone, I'm not really alone.

00:12:37 Allah Azzawajal sees me. 0.87

00:12:39 He sees the things that I'm doing.

00:12:40 So, I have to develop this God consciousness, you know.

00:12:43 So, I think this is the most beneficial thing that you develop during Ramadan.

00:12:46 Is the idea of God consciousness.

00:12:48 But yeah, there's so many things, subhanAllah, that you benefit from Ramadan. 0.98

00:12:51 Don't zoom.

00:12:52 Keep the stream open on your phone.

00:12:54 Because it's up for a second.

00:12:57 How do the...

00:12:59 How important it is?

00:13:03 Is it to stay focused this entire time?

00:13:06 Is it really that much?

00:13:07 I've noticed that the Haram police specifically,

00:13:10 they're extra...

00:13:11 They're extra...

00:13:12 They're watching more during this month.

00:13:14 They're extra observant.

00:13:15 Yeah, extra observant during this month.

00:13:17 Like, you can't do any...

00:13:18 Like, even playing music at the beginning of my stream,

00:13:20 they're very critical of that.

00:13:22 Yeah, because the thing is,

00:13:23 just like rewards are multiplied,

00:13:25 the sins are also more gracious in Ramadan as well. 1.00

00:13:28 So, it's not just that the rewards are multiplied.

00:13:30 Because these are holy month, right?

00:13:32 And it's times of worship, times of being close to Allah,

00:13:37 so committing a sin at Ramadan is not equal to committing a sin outside Ramadan as well.

00:13:41 So, that's why maybe you'll see them like a little bit more observant with you,

00:13:45 you know, on the things that you do and the things you don't do.

00:13:48 But yeah, subhanAllah, the rewards are multiplied.

00:13:50 And you know, some people think about this.

00:13:53 You know, you should never think about the deeds that you do

00:13:56 as like, you know, you're a video game and you're counting the score.

00:14:01 Like, it's XP points.

00:14:02 Yeah, yeah.

00:14:02 You should never think about it this way.

00:14:04 No, I know a lot of Muslims think about it like that.

00:14:06 Like, oh, you go to Mecca, you get to multiply by 12,000.

00:14:08 Juma'ah, you multiply by two.

00:14:09 No, no, no, no.

00:14:10 لا تحصو فيحصو عليكم.

00:14:12 Do not count.

00:14:13 And then Allah Azza wa Jawa will also keep count of what you're doing. 0.94

00:14:16 And trust me, if Allah keeps count of every single thing you're doing,

00:14:18 you're not going to be in a good position, you know.

00:14:20 So, we're not doing these things, you know.

00:14:23 Today, I've recited like, let's say, you know what, 10 pages.

00:14:27 And look, the score is 3,355.

00:14:29 Okay, I prayed.

00:14:31 Do you know why you can never do this anyways?

00:14:33 Even if you wanted to, you can't.

00:14:34 Because a lot of the acts of worship,

00:14:37 Allah doesn't tell you the reward that you get anyways.

00:14:39 So, okay, Allah says that you're rewarded for the prayer.

00:14:41 Okay, how many hasanat?

00:14:42 If you want to do the counting, XP counting, you know, the gaming XP counting.

00:14:46 You cannot count because you do not know the exact reward that you get.

00:14:49 Allah says that He increases or multiplies for the servants.

00:14:54 It doesn't say like 100,000 times in Mecca?

00:14:56 I've heard people say that.

00:14:57 There are specific things for certain acts of worship.

00:15:00 So, this is an example, right?

00:15:01 It says it's equal to the reward of 100,000 prayer.

00:15:05 But why is there a reward of one so you can times 100,000?

00:15:07 It just gives you, like, the motivation to do it.

00:15:12 But you still don't know the reward that you will get for months so you can X 100,000.

00:15:16 So, it's not math.

00:15:17 Yeah, so, exactly.

00:15:18 That's it.

00:15:18 It's not something that you count, okay, Allah today and that.

00:15:21 And therefore, you know, I'm ready now to do this.

00:15:23 It's not how it works.

00:15:24 You do your best.

00:15:25 Be conscious of Allah as much as you can.

00:15:31 This is what Allah commands us as Muslims.

00:15:33 But why do Muslims do better in Ramadan? 0.99

00:15:35 Because it's not 10 XP a month more or something.

00:15:38 No, because the rewards are multiplied.

00:15:40 How many exactly we do not know.

00:15:42 But we know for a fact that the deeds are multiplied.

00:15:45 We know that the rewards are more.

00:15:46 And we know that Allah Azza wa Jal is generous in giving his rewards. 0.92

00:15:50 I was asking Muhammad Aja before in the car over here about your credibility.

00:15:55 And he was saying that you're very respected because...

00:15:57 No, because I'm curious, not to try to judge if you're...

00:16:00 Because we had a conversation before and you're very knowledgeable.

00:16:02 And he basically said that the reason that you're respected is that people know how much reading you've done.

00:16:08 And people...

00:16:09 You have a lot of credibility in terms of Islamic knowledge specifically.

00:16:12 I think he's read more than me, if you want to talk about it.

00:16:16 I was saying to him that the difference is like in...

00:16:20 You have to differentiate between someone who comes through a formal Islamic program.

00:16:26 Like yourself.

00:16:27 I don't know if you've made that public or not, but...

00:16:29 Not really, but yeah.

00:16:30 Not that location is not important, but I've done it.

00:16:33 That's okay.

00:16:34 People know that I've done.

00:16:35 But not in a specific location.

00:16:37 Well, okay.

00:16:37 Well, that's where you should know.

00:16:39 No, no, no, no.

00:16:40 Yeah, please.

00:16:41 So that's it.

00:16:43 I was saying to him, because if you're starting to take knowledge and stuff like that,

00:16:49 Islamic knowledge, in a way, it's like medical knowledge.

00:16:52 Right?

00:16:52 So the Prophet Muhammad SAW said to us,

00:16:55 And he's not actually known to be like a medical doctor.

00:17:11 And then if he injures somebody, then he's responsible for that.

00:17:15 So it's important for someone to know, okay, this guy has gone through a whole process.

00:17:19 He's been examined by teachers and scholars and so on.

00:17:23 And he's passed.

00:17:25 Rather than, okay, this person is just a person on the internet who hasn't done that.

00:17:29 That's true.

00:17:29 So there is a distinction, I would say that someone who's gone through that process deserves the credit for that.

00:17:35 Because otherwise, what's the point of doing all these years of studying?

00:17:38 No, it's true.

00:17:39 It's true.

00:17:39 I agree with you.

00:17:40 And in the same time, like, you know, people use this term, like, which is a Western term in the end, the idea of academia, right?

00:17:48 Or possessing a specific degree.

00:17:50 Okay.

00:17:51 I think what's important is that you do go through a process, right?

00:17:54 Yes.

00:17:54 What's important is that you go through a process.

00:17:56 It does not have to be in a specific institute.

00:17:58 Because these institutes that I've, for example, the one I've been to, I spoke to you maybe before about, like, some of the problems there, right?

00:18:04 So just like as there is good things in these institutes, there are also bad things in these institutes.

00:18:09 And that was not my, like, the only way I received knowledge.

00:18:13 I went and actually sat down with people of knowledge, scholars, et cetera, students of knowledge.

00:18:17 And you sat down and they teach you.

00:18:18 They give you the fundamental principles, this and that.

00:18:20 Because even, you know, generally when you go to university for anything and you spend four years, it's not enough for you to be an expert at that thing.

00:18:28 Whatever it is that you're going to study, you're going to come out, you're not going to come out an expert of every aspect of that thing that you've studied.

00:18:33 That's why they have master's degree, PhD.

00:18:35 The whole point of existence of these things is that there is more studies that you could pursue.

00:18:40 There is more knowledge that you can acquire and attain that you do not do when you go to the four years, right?

00:18:45 The basic degree.

00:18:46 It doesn't have to be through a university.

00:18:47 Yes.

00:18:48 So long as you've gone through any kind of process.

00:18:49 Absolutely.

00:18:50 And that's with anything, like even if you're a martial arts or, I don't know, even if you're a content creator, like, I don't know, you have to go through a process to show your competence or something, I think.

00:19:01 So I was explaining to him that, mashallah, the reason why you probably come with a higher level in terms of quality in terms of your dawah is because you've actually gone through a process like that.

00:19:12 So it's going to be difficult for, I mean, I feel sorry for, I saw one particular video of someone trying to challenge you on Islamic, and he was an uneducated disbeliever. 1.00

00:19:23 And it's true, he was an uneducated disbeliever. 1.00

00:19:28 But that's what it was.

00:19:30 And he was coming out of blunders, but you didn't even need to work hard to point out his errors.

00:19:36 And that is because he doesn't realize what he's going up against.

00:19:39 Yeah.

00:19:39 Yeah, subhanAllah. 0.67

00:19:41 Well, I think it's sad.

00:19:43 It's not just when it comes to Islamic knowledge, but when it comes to people in general and the amount of research and the amount of investigations that they do, you know.

00:19:49 I was just doing a live yesterday with a Christian.

00:19:53 And then he came.

00:19:54 And then he didn't know the development of the Trinity, the history of the church.

00:19:58 They don't know these specific things, for example, right?

00:20:01 And they're too lazy to do research on these issues.

00:20:03 So what happened is I said to him, OK, the Trinity was developed.

00:20:06 You had the Council of Nicaea.

00:20:08 You had, you know, the Arius arguing against Athanasius, etc., all of these things.

00:20:11 Then he didn't know how to spell the name of Athanasius.

00:20:13 And he said, no, no, no, the Trinity is not founded at that time.

00:20:16 And he couldn't spell the name of the church father, one of the main church fathers, the one who decided on the 27 books of the New Testament.

00:20:22 And this is their own religion, right?

00:20:24 So it was, in a way, a Muslim being a teacher to a Christian on his own history, on his own tradition, on his own things.

00:20:31 So I think this is true.

00:20:34 That's why you would find the difference between someone who's done, like, an education.

00:20:38 Like many brothers, alhamdulillah, they have, and they're better than me.

00:20:41 They've done, let's say, an education, a form of other in an institute or outside.

00:20:45 But they've done a form of education and learning.

00:20:48 You can always differentiate easily between them and someone who's just, like, you know, opening books himself or just listening here or there or doing some things.

00:20:56 Because the difference is obvious, I would say.

00:20:58 I'm curious, like, how people who grew up with Islam, like Muhammad Ujab and yourself, how did you get into Dawah?

00:21:05 Because my masjid specifically is like a black masjid where you have, like, the Nation of Islam type of people.

00:21:11 Like, we were slaves for 400 years, like that type of environment.

00:21:16 And you can tell that they were all former Christians who are kind of upset, like, and they think that Christianity is like a white religion, which is not true.

00:21:23 But, you know, some of the ideas and the depictions of Jesus that you could argue that.

00:21:26 But the reason that they are, they're so, they believe in Islam so much is a lot of it is because of the animosity they have towards Christianity and fighting back towards that. 0.87

00:21:34 And also some of the falsehoods and inconsistencies that they saw there.

00:21:37 So they're really passionate about Islam, which is, you know, I wish that I just had a masjid where, you know, you just, it's all about Islamic knowledge.

00:21:45 But how do people that were born with Islam get the same sort of passion to spread the truth? 0.99

00:21:50 You know, you're asking me a lot of questions and he's there as well.

00:21:52 These brothers, you know, they can always, you know, chime in.

00:21:55 Yeah, I'm good.

00:21:56 I'm trying to spark conversation.

00:21:58 You cannot miss him, you know.

00:22:00 The assault.

00:22:03 Hello, man.

00:22:04 I'm going to see you, by the way.

00:22:06 Did you help?

00:22:06 Oh, I can see you.

00:22:07 Okay, so good.

00:22:09 My last name.

00:22:11 That's good.

00:22:11 You can get some tips, you know.

00:22:13 Can you help me?

00:22:15 Can you help me with that?

00:22:16 You know.

00:22:17 Yes, man.

00:22:17 You know, the thing is about, like.

00:22:25 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:22:25 He sent it to me, actually.

00:22:27 You sent it to him?

00:22:29 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:29 I had a talk with him, actually.

00:22:30 You know, it's private talk.

00:22:31 But, you know.

00:22:33 Alhamdulillah, you know.

00:22:35 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:22:37 So, you know, when it comes to the nation, they call themselves the nation of Islam.

00:22:41 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:41 The Malcolm X people.

00:22:42 Yeah, but.

00:22:43 No, no, not Malcolm X.

00:22:44 I know.

00:22:44 It's Elijah Muhammad.

00:22:46 They actually killed him.

00:22:47 Oh, yeah.

00:22:47 So, how would you say they're Malcolm X people when they actually are the ones who killed

00:22:50 them?

00:22:50 Sure.

00:22:50 The thing is this, is that they are, have nothing to, they really have nothing to do with Islam.

00:22:56 Because they have a different prophet that they believe in, called Elijah Muhammad, and

00:22:59 they have different teachings, and they believe.

00:23:00 He's a prophet, Elijah Muhammad? 0.85

00:23:01 Yeah, yeah.

00:23:02 They do believe he's a prophet.

00:23:03 And if you believe in any prophet after prophet Muhammad, this is an action of disbelief, 0.89

00:23:07 right?

00:23:07 Right.

00:23:07 The Quran is explicit about...

00:23:08 I think his listeners, like, they're infamous, but they wouldn't say that Elijah Muhammad is

00:23:12 a prophet.

00:23:13 No, it's not even specifically a nation. 0.90

00:23:15 It's just a lot of the imams and the people that go there are like elderly black men that 0.99

00:23:19 come from that.

00:23:20 And so, you...

00:23:20 That's what I'm saying.

00:23:24 You know, you know, some of the...

00:23:25 It's like revert type of thing, yeah.

00:23:27 You know, something interesting.

00:23:28 Some of the stats...

00:23:29 Suits and they march and stuff. 0.81

00:23:30 Some of these anti-Islam people, like, some of them, especially in the black community, 0.89

00:23:36 who accepts Islam in prison. 0.93

00:23:38 And then sometimes, I believe some of these stats say that, look, a lot of Muslims are in

00:23:42 prison, while in reality, these individuals have accepted Islam during their stay in prison,

00:23:47 right?

00:23:47 So, they can have also some teaching, some learning some things from there, like to do

00:23:52 with the nation of Islam, this and that.

00:23:54 It's an ideology. 1.00

00:23:55 Okay, the white man is a devil. 0.99

00:23:56 And then you've got the Hebrew Israelites, which have a closer ideology to the same. 1.00

00:24:00 Look, it's...

00:24:02 In reality, it's uno-reverse card.

00:24:03 It's counter-racism, you know?

00:24:05 We've had racism happening for this amount of years, so now we're going to do, you know,

00:24:09 a counter-racism movement.

00:24:11 But you were talking about growing up, like, in an Islamic environment, right?

00:24:15 Yeah, subhanAllah, look, if you grow up in... or you live in a Muslim country for an amount 1.00

00:24:23 of time, or you stay in a Muslim country, yeah, the environment is completely different.

00:24:27 Like, how people, even if they're not knowledgeable, they always have this inner respect for Allah,

00:24:34 inner respect for the Prophet, inner respect for their own religion.

00:24:37 Like, if you remind someone, okay, Allah says this, or the Prophet says this, or he's doing 0.87

00:24:41 something wrong in public, they would stop the action that they were doing.

00:24:46 People are actually God-fearing in these...

00:24:48 Here, you can do, say, whatever you want to...

00:24:50 No one cares, right?

00:24:51 Everyone is his own God in the West.

00:24:54 The West is about the individual in the end.

00:24:56 It's not about the collective...

00:24:57 Everyone in...

00:24:57 That's a good statement.

00:24:58 I might steal that as a tweet.

00:24:59 Okay.

00:25:00 Everyone in the West is their own God.

00:25:02 Yeah, that's it.

00:25:03 Because they're self-serving?

00:25:04 Because their determination of right and wrong is their desire.

00:25:08 Their determination of what they...

00:25:09 Who tells you what you can and you can't do?

00:25:11 Who tells you and you and me?

00:25:13 Who tells us what we can do?

00:25:14 Allah.

00:25:14 The Prophet, Allah Allah.

00:25:15 It's not...

00:25:16 I'm a servant of God.

00:25:17 Muslim is a submitter of God, right? 1.00

00:25:19 You cannot say a Muslim is the God of his own self because he's not the one making the decision. 0.70

00:25:23 But if I don't follow any religion, am I not the God of my own self?

00:25:27 That's why Allah, he mentions that in the Quran.

00:25:29 Have you seen the person who took his desire as his own God?

00:25:32 Right?

00:25:32 Have you seen the one who took his desire as his own God?

00:25:35 Because he determines for himself what is morally right, what is morally wrong. 0.98

00:25:39 And look, you've got all of these ridiculous laws in the West that if you think about for a few minutes, you realize how ridiculous they are. 0.98

00:25:44 Right? 0.94

00:25:45 And certain things, like for example, certain things for them, it's a huge problem.

00:25:51 And things which are much bigger, they don't care about.

00:25:53 Like for example, okay, your daughter going in the street barely wearing any clothes.

00:25:57 You know?

00:25:57 Oh yeah, yeah, but come.

00:26:02 Go ahead, I don't want to lose your train of thought.

00:26:04 We've got some surprises for you, man.

00:26:09 Jazakallah khair.

00:26:11 Hey, big shout out to our boy right here, by the way.

00:26:14 Big shout out to our boy.

00:26:14 Hey, thank you, bro.

00:26:15 Thank you, bro.

00:26:16 So much.

00:26:16 Tell us the name of your company.

00:26:17 Inshallah.

00:26:18 I mean, it's a giant sign right behind you.

00:26:21 Okay.

00:26:21 Jazakallah khair, bro.

00:26:22 Just be careful with the HCMI.

00:26:26 I think that's why it's like cutting it out.

00:26:33 Chad, everything good?

00:26:34 Is the connection good?

00:26:35 No, no.

00:26:36 That's it.

00:26:37 That's it.

00:26:38 That's good.

00:26:38 Low bit rate.

00:26:39 You're our guest today.

00:26:40 Come on, bro.

00:26:40 You can't be shy.

00:26:41 Don't worry.

00:26:42 I'm not shy.

00:26:42 I'm not.

00:26:44 Okay.

00:26:47 Can you care for it?

00:26:48 We can do it.

00:26:50 What?

00:26:50 Or you can do it.

00:26:51 Up to you.

00:26:51 No problem.

00:26:53 Just leave it there.

00:26:54 Part of the experience.

00:26:55 Hey, uh, the cheesecake comes with some sauce.

00:26:56 He'll put it for you.

00:26:57 He's going to put it for you.

00:26:58 Some sauce.

00:26:59 Oh, yeah.

00:26:59 Thank you.

00:27:00 Thank you very much.

00:27:00 A little bit.

00:27:01 How would you like it?

00:27:02 Let him know how you like it.

00:27:03 Yeah, just a little bit's good.

00:27:09 Okay.

00:27:10 Yeah, you pull that, please, yeah?

00:27:11 Make sure it's pulled properly, okay?

00:27:16 Can you put it?

00:27:19 Yeah, yeah, he has.

00:27:19 He has.

00:27:21 Thank you, brother.

00:27:23 It's exactly right.

00:27:24 It's better.

00:27:26 Guys, by the way, it's Musa behind the camera.

00:27:27 It's not Needles.

00:27:28 He's not here yet.

00:27:29 But, yeah, you were saying, um...

00:27:32 Yeah, so I was saying there are certain things...

00:27:33 You bring in an analogy.

00:27:34 Yeah, I was saying there are certain things in the West that it's more gracious, it's more problematic to do.

00:27:41 They don't look at it as big of a problem as other things, right?

00:27:45 So, for example, it's okay for you to, like, for your daughter to go outside barely wearing any clothes, you know, in the streets, hanging around with the wrong type of men, you know, developing habits from them.

00:27:56 It's her choice, you know, and she's old enough to do all of these things.

00:27:59 But then you have, you know, you have certain things, like, for example, and let's not talk about this too much, but, for example, you have the idea of the N-word, for example.

00:28:08 Yeah.

00:28:08 Right?

00:28:09 This is, like, one of the... 0.72

00:28:11 Let's put it equal to major sin in Islam. 1.00

00:28:13 It's about...

00:28:14 Yeah, yeah, it's like, it's a major sin in Islam, right? 1.00

00:28:16 For them, this is equivalent to what we call a major sin in Islam. 0.99

00:28:19 For a person to say this about another person, this is like, you've done...

00:28:22 That's a major sin?

00:28:23 No, no, I'm saying this is how the West looks at it.

00:28:24 Okay, okay.

00:28:25 This is what I'm saying.

00:28:26 In Islam, you could say the N-word, right?

00:28:28 Yeah, look...

00:28:29 I was about to say it, but it's Ramadan.

00:28:33 I don't want to...

00:28:34 Look, these are all...

00:28:38 Look, in Islam... 0.97

00:28:39 Is that a yes or no?

00:28:41 I'm going to answer you now.

00:28:41 Okay, okay.

00:28:42 You're trying to make a point, right?

00:28:43 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:28:43 I'm trying to make a complete...

00:28:45 We came to the N-word now, yeah?

00:28:46 Look, look, he won't put me in trouble.

00:28:48 Look.

00:28:48 I don't.

00:28:49 I just want to know.

00:28:50 No, no, it's okay.

00:28:50 Get him cancelled.

00:28:52 Words in Islam... 0.80

00:28:53 Words in Islam are in the N-words.

00:28:56 But if these words do cause harm to a specific group of people or a specific individual,

00:29:00 then it would be recommended from an Islamic point of view not to say it to these specific...

00:29:04 Not to be derogatory towards other people.

00:29:06 In Islam, racism is a complete no-no, right?

00:29:09 Okay.

00:29:09 So if this specific thing is considered a sin, and it would hurt a specific group of people,

00:29:15 then Islam would not allow you to be saying these things, like just here and there whenever 0.52

00:29:18 you want, right?

00:29:19 What about in a friendly way?

00:29:21 This is what I was about to say.

00:29:22 Okay.

00:29:23 I know you just want to say it for some reason, but look.

00:29:25 Let's say for...

00:29:26 Yeah, let's say you are sitting with your friend.

00:29:28 You mentioned that word.

00:29:28 There is nothing in the Quran or Sunnah or Hadith tradition will say to you, okay, now

00:29:33 you have a sin because you mentioned this word.

00:29:35 Right?

00:29:36 Okay.

00:29:37 So this is what I'm telling you.

00:29:39 In the West, how big of a problem would they look at it if you were to say a word like

00:29:43 this?

00:29:43 We've got black people too.

00:29:44 Yeah, yeah.

00:29:45 The brothers, they can say, you know, they can give us...

00:29:47 You know, it's because it's me saying it.

00:29:49 Yeah, so...

00:29:53 Can they give you the pass on a halal way? 0.93

00:29:56 This guy just wants to troll you.

00:29:58 So, the point, the main point is this, is how they would look at it in the West, right?

00:30:04 They look at this as like, as he said, cancelling someone, you know, totally, you know, deleting

00:30:09 someone off social media because he mentioned a word.

00:30:12 Okay, he did it in a racist way.

00:30:13 If he did it in a racist way, we agree that's wrong.

00:30:15 So it's...

00:30:16 You shouldn't be doing it in that way.

00:30:17 But we're talking about the comparison now of what the West places as a priority of

00:30:22 what do and do not do in comparison to things which are not on the same level, but they

00:30:27 would make a whole big problem out of it, right?

00:30:30 So that's what I'm saying in the West, when you think about these things, it becomes very 0.97

00:30:33 ridiculous, okay? 0.92

00:30:34 Saying a word in the end, it's a word. 0.99

00:30:37 It's a word, right?

00:30:38 If I say that word, do you...

00:30:40 Does it harm you directly by losing an arm, a leg or something like that?

00:30:43 It doesn't.

00:30:44 No, no, no.

00:30:44 But letting your daughter being used as a toy or used and abused, you know, in the 0.85

00:30:50 streets as a toy and barely wearing any clothes and then coming to you with a baby that she 1.00

00:30:55 doesn't know who the father is and he ends up in the roads becoming a criminal, you know?

00:31:00 I'm going to listen to his laugh, bro.

00:31:02 Well, how many jobs got a psycho laugh, bro?

00:31:04 Why does he laugh like a serial killer?

00:31:07 He's a real one, you know?

00:31:08 This is him normally, you just don't know.

00:31:11 So, yeah.

00:31:12 You guys don't have to share, dude.

00:31:13 We have four plates.

00:31:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:31:15 You can eat each other.

00:31:19 You want some?

00:31:20 Do you want some?

00:31:21 No, no, I'll have some.

00:31:22 Okay.

00:31:23 Eat up.

00:31:23 Me and me.

00:31:24 You and me.

00:31:24 Eat, eat, eat. 0.98

00:31:26 My nigga. 0.95

00:31:29 Hey, me too, me too. 0.98

00:31:30 You know. 0.97

00:31:31 My nigga, man. 0.99

00:31:32 Yeah, subhanAllah. 0.99

00:31:35 Hey, the French toast?

00:31:36 Hey, this is the one you guys want to eat.

00:31:38 Go ahead.

00:31:40 I've been dying to say that for 30 minutes.

00:31:43 So, just like look at the West and look at what are the biggest problems that you could

00:31:47 do in the West today?

00:31:48 What are the biggest problematic?

00:31:50 Do you mind?

00:31:50 Can you scoot down to that chair?

00:31:52 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:31:52 Yeah, thank you.

00:31:53 You want me to bring this one here?

00:31:55 Yeah, yeah.

00:31:55 If you could sit down there, it would be better for the angle.

00:31:58 So, what do you want me to do?

00:32:00 You want to bring this one this way?

00:32:01 Yeah, just sit right there.

00:32:08 How did we get here?

00:32:11 Yeah, you're asking about growing up in an Islamic environment.

00:32:13 I was talking about the difference between the Islamic environment and the Western environment. 0.99

00:32:18 And these are some of the examples of the difference that are growing in an Islamic environment. 0.99

00:32:21 The things which are important, people are careful of doing.

00:32:25 People are more God conscious.

00:32:27 People would listen to your advice if you give them advice.

00:32:30 People fear God.

00:32:32 There is God consciousness.

00:32:33 This is the difference.

00:32:34 This is literally the difference between the West and these Muslim countries. 1.00

00:32:37 There is God consciousness.

00:32:39 You're fearing God.

00:32:40 You know there's consequences to the actions that you make.

00:32:43 It's not as simple as, you know, I'm doing whatever I want.

00:32:45 I'm the God of my own self.

00:32:47 And the West has become a mockery of the things that they would say.

00:32:51 Like, you know, let's bring another controversial example.

00:32:54 I know his fan base, they like controversial things, you know, which I mentioned to you before probably.

00:33:00 So, the idea of engaging in intercourse with someone from a specific age, right?

00:33:06 Okay.

00:33:07 The age, you know, he already knows there's differences, right?

00:33:11 So, I've mentioned...

00:33:12 Okay.

00:33:16 We'll mention this simple example.

00:33:18 You've got different states.

00:33:20 These different states, they have different ages.

00:33:22 They disagree with one another.

00:33:23 That they would literally label one another to be...

00:33:28 You want to use pedophile, all of these terminology.

00:33:30 The West would label other countries to be pedophiles that they have.

00:33:34 You look at the age of consent.

00:33:36 In some countries, 14.

00:33:38 But the age of marriage is 16, 17, 18.

00:33:39 Okay.

00:33:40 So, the girl can have intercourse at the age of 14. 0.93

00:33:42 But she needs to be married. 0.98

00:33:45 Okay.

00:33:46 Okay.

00:33:46 So, where is this idea coming from?

00:33:49 Where is the rationality behind these teachings that you see, right?

00:33:52 So, yeah.

00:33:53 Just look at the West.

00:33:53 And what they look at as the biggest problematic things versus, like, very small things that

00:33:59 they would look at, it's okay for you to do.

00:34:00 In Islam, it would be the polar opposite. 1.00

00:34:02 And if you're growing in a Muslim community, it would be like this. 0.99

00:34:05 Like, in an Islamic community, a very good example.

00:34:08 Imagine you're living in a Muslim country, and you're on the bus, and a man kisses a woman 0.66

00:34:13 in the bus.

00:34:14 Have you seen this in Egypt?

00:34:17 Have you seen it?

00:34:18 No, but I've seen Tahrrush there. 0.99

00:34:21 Let's bring you something out there.

00:34:22 What is that?

00:34:28 I don't know what that is.

00:34:29 You can't call it.

00:34:30 Oh.

00:34:31 Yeah.

00:34:32 What?

00:34:33 Okay.

00:34:34 No, but that way.

00:34:35 You should ask me.

00:34:36 Oh, man.

00:34:37 I'm going to ask you next time.

00:34:38 I'm going to ask one of you brothers, you know.

00:34:41 Okay.

00:34:42 So.

00:34:43 SubhanAllah.

00:34:43 Yeah.

00:34:44 So.

00:34:45 The thing is this.

00:34:46 If they do this in the bus, people will look at them.

00:34:50 They're different.

00:34:51 There's an element of culture shaming, you can say.

00:34:54 People will look at them in a different way.

00:34:56 People will speak to them.

00:34:57 Why are you doing this?

00:34:58 Even if she's his wife. 0.91

00:35:00 There's a level of public decency.

00:35:02 And subhanAllah.

00:35:02 Some countries, I would say.

00:35:05 Even some non-Muslim countries, but very few like Japan.

00:35:08 You find they have a lot of similar teachings to that.

00:35:11 You know, there's public decency when you are outside, you know, raising your voice, throwing things in the road.

00:35:16 These specific things.

00:35:17 You have more public decency.

00:35:19 But in comparison, if you look at those, it's like it's a complete.

00:35:21 Just not.

00:35:21 Kissing is like a very small thing, if you want to say.

00:35:24 What they would be doing in public places, you know.

00:35:26 So, yeah.

00:35:27 It's a huge difference.

00:35:28 If you grow up in a Muslim environment, then. 1.00

00:35:31 If you grow up in a Muslim. 1.00

00:35:32 Have you seen the carnival in London?

00:35:34 No.

00:35:35 The worst thing I've seen in this country is when I was.

00:35:39 Because you know what we do with Awa.

00:35:41 You've got the pride parade.

00:35:43 You've got the pride parade.

00:35:45 Why are you saying it again?

00:35:49 And I'm saying this with no, I'm not even joking.

00:35:51 I felt that the earth would open and swallow the people. 1.00

00:35:55 Because, you know, I'm speaking seriously of the amount of how the people are dressed.

00:36:00 What the people are doing to their bodies.

00:36:02 Like the guy is making two horns and barely wearing any clothes.

00:36:05 And there is like these metal things all over.

00:36:08 I'm like, what's going on, man?

00:36:10 The cow has less metal things than what this person has on himself.

00:36:15 And, like, honestly.

00:36:16 You're talking about the face piercings?

00:36:18 What are you talking about?

00:36:19 It's a whole body piercing.

00:36:20 The guy was a broken piercing.

00:36:23 Wallahi.

00:36:24 He had two horns.

00:36:25 His hair, he made his hair like two horns.

00:36:28 Right.

00:36:28 Red.

00:36:29 And the guy's a full, he was wearing something which is barely covering his, you know, his body part.

00:36:35 And his whole body is piercings.

00:36:37 Thank you, bro.

00:36:38 Some of the sites I've seen is, I'm never going to forget them, basically.

00:36:45 Are you also one of those people like the West is falling, the West is crumbling, it's satanic?

00:36:49 You also believe that?

00:36:51 In a moral sense, the West has always been quite decadent, in my opinion.

00:36:56 I don't think it's ever been, I mean, obviously there was a time where the Christian tradition

00:37:00 was, you know, was stronger in the West.

00:37:05 Like, if you look demographically, the turning point really was the 19th.

00:37:10 The sexual revolution.

00:37:11 Yeah.

00:37:12 Yeah.

00:37:13 But it's not just the sexual revolution.

00:37:14 There were so many things that happened.

00:37:16 The rise of feminism and the sexual revolution.

00:37:19 Most sociologists, and I've done a small piece on this for the sake of this, on the, I tried to track the time where people became less religious.

00:37:27 And I tried to find out what the reason was, and what do sociologists say about this.

00:37:33 And the 1916 seemed to be the main point in the whole of the West, Western Europe and America, for two main reasons.

00:37:41 Number one, liberalism effectively substituted Christianity as the dominant ethic, the dominant morality.

00:37:49 And number two, parenting.

00:37:51 So sociologically, parents wouldn't teach their children this is right and this is wrong.

00:37:55 But what they would now teach their children is, you go and decide whatever you think is right and wrong.

00:37:59 So this laissez-faire attitude to morality.

00:38:01 And as a result, this laissez-faire attitude to morality would become the new morality.

00:38:06 So, like, people would be like, oh, we don't need to know, let anyone can do whatever they want.

00:38:10 And it became laissez-faire.

00:38:13 Morality became reshaped after, I think, the 60s and 70s in the West, generally speaking.

00:38:19 And in that sense, I mean, there's a very powerful quotation by Arthur Schopenhauer, who's a pessimist.

00:38:27 He was like a philosopher, a pessimist.

00:38:28 He was an atheist, right?

00:38:29 Atheist.

00:38:30 And he said that humanity oscillates between extreme fear and extreme boredom.

00:38:40 Fear, I'm guessing, I'm thinking, that he means by fear, because you're either in a state of war or a state of peace.

00:38:46 When you're in a state of war, you're scared because you're scared for your life.

00:38:51 You're in survival mode.

00:38:53 And when you're in that state of fear, you don't have time to be bored.

00:38:57 That's a general psychological principle.

00:38:59 If you're in a state of fear and survival, you don't have time to be bored.

00:39:03 But if you're no longer in that state of fear, then what happens is you start to become bored.

00:39:09 And when you become bored, what do you do?

00:39:11 You become depressed.

00:39:13 You become depressed, but then you also have a thousand genders now. 1.00

00:39:15 You invent problems.

00:39:18 Yeah, exactly.

00:39:19 You invent new problems.

00:39:20 You invent new realities.

00:39:21 You create something.

00:39:23 You need a new challenge for yourself.

00:39:26 And so I think what we're seeing now is a result of the substitution of morality from Christianity to liberalism.

00:39:34 New parenting methods, which basically gave the child rather than for the parent to take control of the child.

00:39:41 And then you have this issue of boredom.

00:39:43 We're living in the age of boredom.

00:39:45 Social media.

00:39:46 People are bored.

00:39:47 They don't know what to do.

00:39:48 So they're inventing new ideologies, new genders, new this, new that. 0.97

00:39:52 And that's what is causing the West to decline at a more rapid rate.

00:39:56 I mean, it's declining in every single way now.

00:40:00 Economically, it is declining militarily, comparative to its competitors.

00:40:04 Look at China and what it's doing. 0.98

00:40:05 But now it's self-inflicted.

00:40:09 Because the West, what they're doing now is they're doing it to themselves.

00:40:12 If you don't have the warrior instinct, if you don't have a will to be strong, a will to be right and to be wrong,

00:40:18 and these kinds of very solid things, you're going to be overtaken by people that do want to have these things.

00:40:24 And that's why I think that the West is...

00:40:26 Is that why Muslims are conquering London right now? 1.00

00:40:29 They're conquering this place.

00:40:31 They're stomping over it.

00:40:32 I mean, a couple of years ago when it was COVID lockdown, it was all a bunch of like the genderless people walking around. 1.00

00:40:37 But you can look around here and now it looks like Afghanistan.

00:40:39 What do you say?

00:40:41 Londonistan?

00:40:42 Londonistan.

00:40:43 Londonistan.

00:40:44 This place is just...

00:40:45 It's like one in three people, mostly Muslim.

00:40:47 I'm seeing so many Thobes and Izhabis walking around. 1.00

00:40:49 In London, probably about one in five.

00:40:51 You know, it's probably about 20%, let's say 18, 19%.

00:40:54 And a population of what, 10 million?

00:40:55 10 million.

00:40:56 So we've got maybe about 1.5 million Muslims here in London.

00:40:59 But in Birmingham, it's probably one in three now.

00:41:02 Yeah, and in Bradford, it's almost one in two.

00:41:06 Yeah, it's one in two.

00:41:07 It's almost half.

00:41:07 The reason I ask that is because I hear that rhetoric a lot from Muslims. 1.00

00:41:10 Like, you bring that up.

00:41:12 But you guys still live here.

00:41:14 You know, and there's a growing Muslim population.

00:41:16 Like, why do you remain here?

00:41:20 Yeah, but I'm not planning on remaining here long term, nor have I been here long term.

00:41:24 He's born here, for example.

00:41:25 This is his country.

00:41:26 In a way, he's born...

00:41:26 So he's born in Egypt.

00:41:27 No, he's born here.

00:41:28 So it depends on the individual, right?

00:41:31 Some people are actually born here.

00:41:32 There's a second, third generation Muslims that are staying here, right?

00:41:36 And for me, I just came here not too long ago, by the way.

00:41:40 And I'm going to leave very soon, you know?

00:41:43 Since you asked, right?

00:41:44 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:41:44 Very soon.

00:41:44 Do you know where you're going?

00:41:45 Yeah, but I'm not going to say that publicly, right?

00:41:47 But I do know where I'm going, yes.

00:41:49 But this is the thing.

00:41:49 That's all.

00:41:50 Yeah.

00:41:50 And I'm saying this with respect to anyone.

00:41:55 I do not feel serenity, tranquility, and peace if I'm here in comparison to any Muslim country in Dawa.

00:42:02 Just comparing just the feeling, the state of tranquility that I feel as a Muslim,

00:42:07 when I'm going to do Umrah or Hajj or any Muslim country.

00:42:10 Of course, Mecca and Medina have a special feeling, right?

00:42:12 But just any Muslim country in general, hearing the call of prayer, the things that I'm telling you,

00:42:17 just the fact that if I'm just walking here,

00:42:19 wherever you look, there are things that you're still not supposed to look at, you know?

00:42:22 They're all over the place.

00:42:23 If I'm at a Muslim country, whichever that Muslim country is, 0.78

00:42:26 let's see, Morocco or Egypt or Tunisia or whichever country,

00:42:29 most people are not dressed in that way.

00:42:32 It's much easier for you not to have these effects because, okay,

00:42:36 we look at it, okay, I'm just looking at someone.

00:42:38 It's not as simple as just me looking at someone.

00:42:39 There's an effect on the heart.

00:42:41 The sin covers the heart.

00:42:43 Allah Azawajal says in the Quran,

00:42:44 Indeed, you know, their hearts have been covered

00:42:47 because of the sins, because of the evil deeds that we do.

00:42:51 And the more you stay in the West,

00:42:53 the more you become accustomed to these things,

00:42:54 the less you realize their effects on you.

00:42:57 So if you are in a place where you don't have that as much,

00:43:01 you feel the difference when you start facing these type of things.

00:43:05 So if you're not always around like women dressed inappropriately 0.75

00:43:08 all over the place around you,

00:43:10 you are in an environment where you don't have that.

00:43:12 You have women dressed in a very modest, proper manner. 1.00

00:43:15 Where most people are God-fearing.

00:43:17 It does have an effect on your psychology.

00:43:18 It does have an effect on you.

00:43:20 Just me feeling better psychologically.

00:43:23 Literally, just me in that country.

00:43:24 It's a huge difference.

00:43:24 Exactly.

00:43:25 You just staying in the country is better.

00:43:27 But for me here, I'm doing something here, right?

00:43:30 It's very down.

00:43:30 Yeah.

00:43:31 So there's a difference.

00:43:32 Like if I want to invite people to Islam, 0.99

00:43:34 I cannot go invite people.

00:43:35 I'm going to invite people to Islam in Egypt.

00:43:37 People are their majority Muslim, right? 0.96

00:43:39 Or in Morocco.

00:43:40 These are countries where people are majority Muslim.

00:43:42 So if you want to invite people to Islam,

00:43:43 of course you would be in a place in which people are not Muslim.

00:43:46 Which is one of the main reasons I'm here.

00:43:47 Or you can say the main reason why I'm here.

00:43:49 But still, again, for a period of time.

00:43:52 Not for forever.

00:43:53 And yes, I'm not planning on staying here long term.

00:43:56 But this is the thing.

00:43:58 You've got now many of the Westerners, 0.99

00:43:59 especially those rich Westerners,

00:44:01 many of them are going living in Muslim countries,

00:44:03 in the Muslim lands.

00:44:04 Because of the safety there.

00:44:05 Because of all of these aspects.

00:44:07 And they've mentioned that multiple different times.

00:44:09 Going to Dubai or going to this or that, right?

00:44:10 We don't say these are the best places from an Islamic point of view.

00:44:14 But they still have a sense of a Muslim environment.

00:44:17 So the UAE does have.

00:44:18 Dubai is like a YouTube in a sense, right?

00:44:21 But the UAE has Islamic environment.

00:44:23 If you go to Sharjah, for example,

00:44:24 Sharqa, it's a very conservative community and society.

00:44:28 If you go to Qatar, if you go to these countries,

00:44:29 they're well developed from, if you want to say,

00:44:32 from an economic point of view.

00:44:33 And they have this Islamic sense of morality still there.

00:44:37 And you can see people in the West,

00:44:38 like the lay person, this is the truth,

00:44:41 there's a whole difference.

00:44:43 And a lot of people don't notice this,

00:44:45 but there's a whole big difference

00:44:46 between social media and the average person.

00:44:48 Like when you interact with average people

00:44:50 and what you see on social media as the predominant thing,

00:44:53 I don't think they're always correlating, to be honest.

00:44:55 But here's what I would respond to that a little bit.

00:44:57 Because I would say, look, if it's about Islam, right?

00:45:00 I don't know if it's more fitna to be in Dubai

00:45:03 than it is to be in London.

00:45:05 Yeah.

00:45:05 What does fitna mean?

00:45:07 Fitna means it's like...

00:45:08 A trial, a test, or a bad effect on you, etc.

00:45:11 It's now when I go to Dubai,

00:45:12 sometimes I feel it's even more tempting.

00:45:15 It is.

00:45:15 Because, for example,

00:45:17 sorry to be explicit about this,

00:45:18 but since we are...

00:45:20 You shouldn't be.

00:45:21 Stop.

00:45:23 We get it.

00:45:24 We get it.

00:45:26 But even if you go to Dubai,

00:45:27 you'll see everything.

00:45:28 In fact, I...

00:45:29 I've not been there.

00:45:29 Dubai?

00:45:30 Yeah.

00:45:30 Okay.

00:45:31 No, no, but this is what I was saying.

00:45:32 I was saying Dubai is different

00:45:33 from an Islamic point of view, right?

00:45:35 Yeah.

00:45:35 That's why I compared it.

00:45:36 I said Sharjah and other places in the...

00:45:37 They're right next to each other.

00:45:39 So if you live in Sharjah,

00:45:40 you're going to go to Dubai like it's...

00:45:42 Have you been to Sharjah?

00:45:43 Yeah, it's right next...

00:45:44 It's literally right next door.

00:45:46 It's like a one...

00:45:46 It's literally half an hour drive, maybe.

00:45:49 So what I'm saying is that it's...

00:45:51 Even if you look at the demographics,

00:45:54 it's pretty surprising.

00:45:55 I don't know.

00:45:55 Dubai's got maybe about 2 million population or something.

00:45:57 2 and a half million, 3 million, maybe.

00:46:00 And then let's look at the amount of

00:46:01 Muslims to non-Muslim ratio in that town,

00:46:03 in that place.

00:46:05 It's comparable...

00:46:06 I'm not going to say it's comparable

00:46:07 with Bradford or Birmingham,

00:46:09 but it's getting there

00:46:10 in terms of the population.

00:46:12 Non-Muslims to Muslims ratio.

00:46:13 It's getting there, yeah.

00:46:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:46:14 Like, over 90% foreigners 1.00

00:46:16 or something like that.

00:46:16 Yeah, yeah.

00:46:17 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:46:18 In terms of the...

00:46:20 Could you make a case

00:46:20 that it sometimes can be...

00:46:23 I don't know.

00:46:23 Now, the Islamic case, 0.99

00:46:25 you know, the Adhan and stuff,

00:46:26 like, if you go to Morocco

00:46:27 or Pakistan or Egypt,

00:46:28 it's different.

00:46:29 But now the Khaleej 1.00

00:46:30 has become effectively like...

00:46:32 It's like a...

00:46:33 It's comparable with a city in Europe

00:46:35 which has got a lot of Muslims inside of it.

00:46:37 I think Qatar is different, though.

00:46:38 Yeah, Qatar is different.

00:46:39 Qatar is different.

00:46:39 That's why I mentioned Qatar as well.

00:46:41 I think people in Qatar...

00:46:43 Like, I've even had some friends

00:46:44 who went and compared both.

00:46:46 It's way different.

00:46:47 But even simple things,

00:46:48 they mention things like,

00:46:49 for example,

00:46:49 flags of Palestine,

00:46:50 this and that.

00:46:51 They said they didn't see that in the UAE,

00:46:52 but in Qatar it saw everyone

00:46:53 having flags of Palestine

00:46:54 all over the place, right?

00:46:55 So in Qatar, I would say...

00:46:58 For example.

00:46:59 Yes, that's another example.

00:47:01 So I would say the Gulf...

00:47:02 Looking at UAE, 0.98

00:47:04 maybe there's a problem.

00:47:04 But Saudi, Qatar...

00:47:07 These countries do not have

00:47:08 as many of the problems

00:47:10 as some people try to make it

00:47:11 seem in social media.

00:47:12 Like when I was in Riyadh...

00:47:13 But the Dawah, 0.99

00:47:14 you wouldn't be able to do

00:47:15 a lot of the Dawah. 0.78

00:47:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:47:16 Do you know what I mean?

00:47:16 Yeah, absolutely.

00:47:17 So one has to think about

00:47:19 all of the things.

00:47:21 Yeah, yeah, but living is different

00:47:23 than coming here,

00:47:24 visiting for a period of time, right?

00:47:25 You can always balance it in that way.

00:47:26 But he was asking when staying, right?

00:47:28 Sure.

00:47:28 So I'm telling him that

00:47:29 honestly, living in a Muslim... 1.00

00:47:32 For me,

00:47:32 and maybe for many other Muslims as well,

00:47:34 I'm not sure.

00:47:35 But the sense of tranquility and peace,

00:47:37 I don't know if you've experienced that.

00:47:38 No, I agree with you.

00:47:39 Yeah, yeah.

00:47:39 If you stay in a Muslim country, 1.00

00:47:41 I'm not talking about Dubai

00:47:42 because I've not been there,

00:47:43 or UAE,

00:47:44 but I'm talking about a Muslim country

00:47:45 that displays the Islamic values, right?

00:47:47 If you're Dubai, by the way,

00:47:47 there's lots you can do that.

00:47:49 It's fantastic.

00:47:49 I prefer Bouddabi, by the way,

00:47:51 like in terms of the Islamic feel.

00:47:53 I think it's really,

00:47:54 it's a fantastic place to be

00:47:56 in many ways, you know?

00:47:57 Can you explain,

00:47:58 what do you dislike about Dubai

00:47:59 for the people that haven't been there?

00:48:00 It's not that I dislike it.

00:48:01 It's just like,

00:48:02 I think that when we discuss about it,

00:48:05 like in classic terms,

00:48:06 they call it hijrah,

00:48:07 where people go back to a Muslim land 1.00

00:48:09 to be with Muslim people.

00:48:11 I think if we're really going to be honest

00:48:13 and talk about,

00:48:13 okay, well,

00:48:14 let's look at, for example,

00:48:15 London or Birmingham

00:48:16 or whatever it is

00:48:18 versus Dubai,

00:48:19 from an Islamic perspective,

00:48:22 now the situation is similar.

00:48:24 Yeah.

00:48:24 Like,

00:48:25 all the negatives

00:48:26 that you'll find in the West,

00:48:28 or the things we perceive

00:48:29 as Muslim conservatives

00:48:30 to be negative,

00:48:31 seeing women in miniskirts,

00:48:32 prostitution,

00:48:34 I don't know,

00:48:34 drugs,

00:48:34 you'll find it in all these places.

00:48:36 Some of them are even more accessible,

00:48:38 you can say,

00:48:38 in certain parts.

00:48:39 Exactly, yeah.

00:48:39 Yeah.

00:48:40 So,

00:48:40 certain parts

00:48:41 and certain actions

00:48:43 which are not good,

00:48:44 there will be more,

00:48:45 but this is the thing,

00:48:45 because Dubai have been made

00:48:46 for that reason,

00:48:47 to be the YouTube of the person

00:48:48 who's coming,

00:48:49 the Western who's coming, 0.71

00:48:50 so you can enjoy

00:48:50 all of these,

00:48:51 like,

00:48:52 life pleasures,

00:48:54 right?

00:48:54 So that's why

00:48:55 it has these issues

00:48:57 that he mentioned,

00:48:57 right?

00:48:58 Because this is their plan,

00:48:59 right?

00:48:59 Bring all of these people

00:49:00 as investors

00:49:00 with money and this and that.

00:49:02 We're going to make

00:49:02 the YouTube for them.

00:49:03 We're going to give them

00:49:04 safety and then you can

00:49:04 do all of the,

00:49:06 if you're not using

00:49:06 the term hedonism

00:49:07 or whatever term,

00:49:07 you're going to use

00:49:08 the hedonistic acts

00:49:09 that you would like to do,

00:49:09 right?

00:49:10 So that's why Dubai

00:49:11 is not,

00:49:11 absolutely is not a good example.

00:49:13 That's why when I mentioned

00:49:13 that I said Dubai

00:49:14 is probably not a good example,

00:49:15 right?

00:49:16 I thought Shadokha 1.00

00:49:17 would be a lot different,

00:49:18 but you said it's not.

00:49:19 It's too close to Dubai,

00:49:20 so.

00:49:21 So the effects are there.

00:49:22 Yeah, yeah.

00:49:22 I mean,

00:49:23 it's only just dry

00:49:23 for 30 minutes,

00:49:24 20 minutes,

00:49:24 like,

00:49:25 so does the West

00:49:26 really deserve

00:49:26 all that criticism?

00:49:28 From what perspective?

00:49:29 Does the West

00:49:30 deserve all that criticism

00:49:31 of that it's crumbling

00:49:32 and that it,

00:49:33 as if it's the,

00:49:33 that's the only place

00:49:34 where hedonism

00:49:35 and degeneracy exist?

00:49:36 No, I mean,

00:49:36 there's a lot of criticism

00:49:37 we should put

00:49:38 to the Muslim world as well.

00:49:39 Do we?

00:49:39 Yeah.

00:49:40 Yeah, we should put more

00:49:41 because the thing is,

00:49:43 is that the Muslim world 0.97

00:49:44 has failed on so many

00:49:45 different fronts now

00:49:46 in the last 100 years.

00:49:47 We've been very weak

00:49:47 as well as Muslims.

00:49:50 We've got to differentiate

00:49:51 between two different things.

00:49:53 We, as Muslim people,

00:49:54 we believe we have the truth

00:49:55 as an ideology,

00:49:56 okay?

00:49:57 We don't believe

00:49:58 that we are living the truth

00:49:59 fully.

00:49:59 Like, if you go to

00:50:00 the Muslim world,

00:50:01 it's not the best

00:50:02 representation of Islam

00:50:02 at the moment.

00:50:04 I mean, in fact,

00:50:04 we're the weakest

00:50:05 we've ever been,

00:50:06 really and truly.

00:50:08 Like, we've had

00:50:08 an illustrious history

00:50:09 for 1,400 years.

00:50:11 Majority of that time,

00:50:12 we've been either

00:50:13 the superpower

00:50:14 or one of the superpowers.

00:50:15 So, more like

00:50:15 the Ottoman Empire?

00:50:16 The Ottoman Empire,

00:50:17 the Abbasid Empire,

00:50:19 the different Spanish empires,

00:50:21 the Muahidun,

00:50:22 the, you know,

00:50:23 the Murabitun,

00:50:24 all that Muahidun 0.91

00:50:25 is problematic

00:50:25 from my perspective.

00:50:27 But, you've got

00:50:28 the Rashidun,

00:50:29 you know,

00:50:29 different,

00:50:30 the Umawis,

00:50:31 so many different

00:50:32 empires have shown

00:50:35 and demonstrated

00:50:35 Mamluks,

00:50:37 the Mughals 1.00

00:50:38 in India,

00:50:39 you know,

00:50:40 Pakistan,

00:50:40 as well as one place.

00:50:42 So, there were

00:50:42 so many empires

00:50:43 that, in Africa,

00:50:45 you have the Mali Empire, 0.98

00:50:47 you know,

00:50:47 and multiple

00:50:48 different empires there.

00:50:49 Now, we are the weakest

00:50:51 point.

00:50:52 Even though it's

00:50:53 the fastest growing,

00:50:54 that it's probably

00:50:55 the fastest

00:50:56 that Islam has ever grown. 1.00

00:50:57 As it is.

00:50:57 In terms of numbers,

00:50:58 we're doing very well.

00:50:59 Okay.

00:51:00 But the Prophet told us

00:51:01 there will come a time

00:51:01 where your numbers

00:51:02 will be very much,

00:51:03 where your quality

00:51:04 will be very little.

00:51:05 And this is our time.

00:51:06 This is the time.

00:51:07 Yeah.

00:51:07 And he told us why,

00:51:08 as well.

00:51:09 He told us that

00:51:10 the wahan,

00:51:11 the weaknesses

00:51:11 that are going to affect us

00:51:13 is

00:51:13 is effectively loving

00:51:15 the worldly life.

00:51:16 It's hedonism.

00:51:17 It's everything

00:51:17 that we're talking about,

00:51:18 right?

00:51:18 So, like,

00:51:19 bring in the people

00:51:20 from the West,

00:51:21 bring investments,

00:51:22 money,

00:51:22 but on what expense?

00:51:24 On the expense of

00:51:25 Islamic things,

00:51:26 on the expense of

00:51:26 afterlife.

00:51:27 So, when he says

00:51:27 Karahiyatul Mawt,

00:51:29 hating to die,

00:51:30 it's referring to

00:51:31 the afterlife.

00:51:32 It's not focusing

00:51:33 on the afterlife,

00:51:33 from that,

00:51:34 on the consequences

00:51:34 of the decisions

00:51:35 that he made.

00:51:36 So, what is putting us

00:51:36 in weakness is that,

00:51:37 is the majority,

00:51:39 or you have the Muslims 0.97

00:51:40 now making their main focus,

00:51:41 okay, making money,

00:51:42 doing this.

00:51:43 This has become

00:51:44 the focus for the Muslims.

00:51:45 Only expenses of,

00:51:46 you know what,

00:51:47 okay, I'm going to have

00:51:48 a bank,

00:51:48 I'm going to have

00:51:48 a credit card,

00:51:49 no problem,

00:51:49 it's against Islam, 0.99

00:51:50 no, I'm going to do it,

00:51:51 I'm going to take a loan,

00:51:52 I'm going to do this.

00:51:52 The credit card is wrong.

00:51:53 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:51:54 What?

00:51:55 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:51:56 I mean,

00:51:56 there's a different opinion

00:51:57 of, like,

00:51:58 what kind of credit card

00:51:59 and what you're using it for.

00:52:00 A visa. 0.86

00:52:01 I'm not going into it.

00:52:02 Okay, okay.

00:52:04 It's safe to say

00:52:06 there's a difference

00:52:06 of opinion of the matter,

00:52:07 right?

00:52:08 But like you said,

00:52:09 there's a difference

00:52:09 of opinion that it's not around.

00:52:11 The problem with the credit card...

00:52:11 It depends on what

00:52:12 you're doing with it

00:52:13 and there's different

00:52:14 festivals on it.

00:52:14 If you go on Islam QA, 1.00

00:52:15 they allow some credit cards,

00:52:17 I mean.

00:52:17 Okay.

00:52:17 The problem with the credit card,

00:52:19 we're not,

00:52:20 for example,

00:52:20 not talking about exceptions

00:52:21 to do with extreme necessity

00:52:23 and these type of things,

00:52:23 we have no other option

00:52:24 that's not.

00:52:25 Right.

00:52:25 Generally,

00:52:26 what is the problem

00:52:26 with the credit card

00:52:27 when we say it's haram

00:52:28 is the element of interest.

00:52:30 Yeah, exactly.

00:52:30 So if there is

00:52:31 an element of interest,

00:52:32 therefore it's haram.

00:52:34 What they have is like,

00:52:35 you know,

00:52:36 like an American Express

00:52:37 credit card

00:52:37 and they'll get like

00:52:38 the flight miles

00:52:39 and stuff like that.

00:52:40 They won't use the interest.

00:52:41 Do you know what I mean?

00:52:42 So some people

00:52:43 use the credit card

00:52:43 without the interest.

00:52:44 No, no,

00:52:45 but this is another thing,

00:52:46 right?

00:52:46 That a lot of...

00:52:47 Yeah, yeah.

00:52:48 The shart nullifies, 0.78

00:52:50 you can say,

00:52:50 nullifies the contract,

00:52:51 but not only that,

00:52:52 is that you are in a way

00:52:53 saying that I know

00:52:55 I will always be able

00:52:56 to pay in time.

00:52:57 Or I will always,

00:52:58 in the future,

00:52:58 I have knowledge

00:52:59 of the unseen.

00:53:00 I'm never going to be...

00:53:01 And by the way,

00:53:01 just like not too long ago,

00:53:03 I had a friend

00:53:04 who engaged in something

00:53:05 like this.

00:53:06 And it wasn't a credit card.

00:53:07 It was, you know,

00:53:08 some of the cards

00:53:08 you get from

00:53:09 some of the stores here.

00:53:10 And then some money

00:53:12 accumulated on him

00:53:13 and then he was asking

00:53:13 people for money,

00:53:15 you know?

00:53:15 So you think that,

00:53:17 oh, I'm going to be able

00:53:17 to pay.

00:53:18 I'm always in that.

00:53:19 You don't know the future.

00:53:20 You don't know

00:53:20 what's going to happen.

00:53:23 It's a bad condition.

00:53:24 It can nullify the contract,

00:53:25 but not only this idea,

00:53:27 is that you are not sure

00:53:33 that you always have

00:53:34 money to pay in time.

00:53:35 No one knows the future.

00:53:36 You can say,

00:53:37 now I have money

00:53:37 and tomorrow you have

00:53:38 zero money.

00:53:38 No one knows the future?

00:53:40 Except Allah.

00:53:41 Okay.

00:53:41 Yeah, except God.

00:53:42 Aren't a lot of,

00:53:43 like what you were

00:53:44 talking about earlier,

00:53:45 you said that

00:53:45 the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam,

00:53:47 he said that

00:53:47 he prophesized

00:53:48 that there would be a time

00:53:49 where Islam would be 0.92

00:53:50 the fast-going religion,

00:53:51 but people would be

00:53:51 focused on the dunya.

00:53:52 Yeah.

00:53:52 Can we predict the future there?

00:53:54 Yeah, so there's two things there.

00:53:55 There's two things there, right?

00:53:57 First, the absolute knowledge

00:53:58 of the unseen.

00:53:59 This is only for Allah. 0.99

00:54:00 Allah azawajal says in the Quran,

00:54:01 Allah says,

00:54:04 he's the knower of the unseen,

00:54:05 he does not give it to anyone

00:54:07 or show it to anyone, right?

00:54:10 And then Allah says

00:54:10 an exception here,

00:54:11 which is what you're talking about.

00:54:13 إِلَّا مَنِرْتَدَى مِنْ رَسُولِهِ

00:54:14 Except who he pleases

00:54:15 from a messenger.

00:54:16 That messenger can be

00:54:17 either like the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam

00:54:18 or the angel

00:54:19 that is going to bring

00:54:20 the revelation to the Prophet

00:54:22 of that in the future.

00:54:23 But this is not

00:54:23 absolute knowledge of the unseen.

00:54:25 This is restricted knowledge

00:54:26 and it's not that the Prophet

00:54:27 restricted knowledge of the unseen,

00:54:29 but not that the Prophet knows it,

00:54:31 that he stole this information.

00:54:33 The difference between saying

00:54:34 I know the future

00:54:35 and being told from Allah

00:54:38 certain aspects of certain things

00:54:39 that will happen in the future.

00:54:40 I'm trying to answer

00:54:40 what you mean by absolute knowledge.

00:54:42 Yeah, absolute knowledge

00:54:43 of the unseen,

00:54:44 meaning that Allah knows

00:54:45 every single thing

00:54:46 that will happen.

00:54:47 Right.

00:54:47 Every single scenario

00:54:49 that happens in the future

00:54:50 does not even happen.

00:54:51 So the hypothetical scenario,

00:54:52 this is knowledge of Allah azawajal,

00:54:54 even if it's a hypothetical scenario

00:54:55 that does not happen,

00:54:57 Allah knows if it were to happen

00:54:58 how it would play out, basically.

00:55:00 But now when it comes to the Prophet,

00:55:01 it's just certain things

00:55:02 that will happen in the future

00:55:03 that Allah azawajal told us.

00:55:05 That also so we can take

00:55:06 warning from it.

00:55:07 So this is a very good example

00:55:09 of what we mentioned

00:55:09 is that we,

00:55:10 okay, the Prophet told us

00:55:11 the problem,

00:55:12 the weakness that we will have,

00:55:13 which is loving the dunya

00:55:14 and hating to die,

00:55:15 not focusing on the afterlife.

00:55:17 He told us

00:55:17 that this will happen

00:55:18 and it's happening

00:55:19 and he's telling us as well

00:55:20 so we can be aware

00:55:20 not to be those type of people,

00:55:22 to avoid the problem,

00:55:24 to avoid this issue

00:55:25 as much as we can

00:55:26 and try to have a good effect

00:55:27 on the individuals.

00:55:28 So absolute knowledge

00:55:29 or unlimited knowledge,

00:55:31 unrestricted knowledge

00:55:32 of the unseen

00:55:32 is only with Allah.

00:55:34 Some information

00:55:34 can be revealed

00:55:35 to messengers of God, right?

00:55:37 That's why the idea

00:55:39 of prophecy,

00:55:39 Prophet and prophecy,

00:55:41 those prophets and messengers

00:55:42 can be told

00:55:43 some of the things

00:55:43 that will happen in the future.

00:55:44 But it's not predicting.

00:55:46 These are absolute things

00:55:47 that will happen.

00:55:48 Can I ask about the end times?

00:55:51 I'm wondering if we're seeing signs,

00:55:54 I don't know if this is predicting

00:55:54 the future,

00:55:55 but if we're seeing signs

00:55:55 of the end times,

00:55:56 I've been talking with Warner

00:55:57 about the coming of the Jal 1.00

00:56:00 and how there's signs

00:56:01 about what's happening now

00:56:02 with the wars that are going on.

00:56:04 Are we coming close

00:56:05 to seeing the return of the Jal? 0.98

00:56:07 Or the return of Isa

00:56:10 or the coming of the Jal? 0.95

00:56:14 Well, the truth is

00:56:16 the Prophet ﷺ

00:56:17 when he was sent,

00:56:18 he said that his sending

00:56:20 and the end times

00:56:24 are this close, basically, right?

00:56:26 And he brought two fingers together.

00:56:28 So he is saying that

00:56:29 one of the very closeness

00:56:31 of the end times,

00:56:32 sign that the end times

00:56:34 are very close,

00:56:35 is him being sent.

00:56:35 Now, not only that,

00:56:37 we have minor and major signs

00:56:39 in Islam, right?

00:56:41 Minor and major signs.

00:56:42 Once all of these

00:56:43 minor signs have passed,

00:56:45 the major signs

00:56:46 of the Day of Judgment

00:56:46 will start,

00:56:47 will commence.

00:56:48 And these would be like,

00:56:49 you can say,

00:56:49 dominoes in the falling.

00:56:50 They would be very quick.

00:56:51 They would be apocalyptic signs,

00:56:53 if you want to say,

00:56:54 that would influence everyone, right?

00:56:56 So right now,

00:56:57 majority of the minor signs

00:56:59 have passed.

00:57:00 So we are very close to...

00:57:01 So we're close.

00:57:02 We're very close to the end times, yeah.

00:57:03 And is there anything we can do?

00:57:04 We can't prevent

00:57:05 what's already predetermined.

00:57:07 What's going to happen

00:57:08 is going to happen.

00:57:08 What you can do

00:57:09 is not necessarily worrying about,

00:57:13 okay, what will happen

00:57:14 in a hundred years from now

00:57:14 because you're not going to be there.

00:57:16 Is today,

00:57:18 as an individual now,

00:57:19 what good impact can I do?

00:57:21 First on myself,

00:57:22 as Allah Azza Jal says

00:57:23 in the Quran,

00:57:24 protect yourselves,

00:57:25 then your families.

00:57:26 This is the second person,

00:57:27 the closest people around you.

00:57:28 From the five, right?

00:57:29 This is the most important thing

00:57:30 that you think about.

00:57:31 Now the Dajjal, 0.98

00:57:32 for example,

00:57:33 the Prophet ﷺ told us

00:57:33 certain parts of,

00:57:35 for example,

00:57:35 of chapter 18 of the Quran,

00:57:37 first 10 verses,

00:57:37 certain things you read

00:57:38 to seek protection.

00:57:39 When you pray,

00:57:40 you know,

00:57:41 when you pray in the end

00:57:42 of the prayer,

00:57:42 you make a dua,

00:57:43 a supplication to Allah Azza Jal 0.98

00:57:44 to protect you

00:57:45 from the trial of the Dajjal

00:57:47 when the Dajjal comes, right? 1.00

00:57:49 So these are the means

00:57:50 that we do today as Muslims,

00:57:51 since we're not exactly

00:57:52 in these trials

00:57:53 and tests and tribulations,

00:57:55 is that we do these means

00:57:56 that Allah Azza Jal 1.00

00:57:56 and the Prophet told us

00:57:57 to do,

00:57:58 to try to protect ourselves

00:57:59 in the meantime.

00:57:59 But yes,

00:58:01 there is no doubt

00:58:01 that we're close to the end times.

00:58:03 What are the signs

00:58:04 that we can be,

00:58:05 that we're all aware of right now?

00:58:07 How do we know

00:58:07 that we're getting close?

00:58:09 Signs of the Dajjal. 1.00

00:58:10 Yeah, so the minor signs

00:58:11 there are many, many, many.

00:58:12 I can say some,

00:58:13 maybe the press can even say some,

00:58:15 but there are a multitude

00:58:16 of different signs.

00:58:17 And by the way,

00:58:17 these signs now

00:58:18 are evidences

00:58:19 that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

00:58:20 was a prophet of God,

00:58:22 was a messenger of God.

00:58:23 This is something for the people

00:58:24 who might be okay thinking,

00:58:25 okay, how do I know

00:58:25 that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

00:58:27 was a messenger of God?

00:58:28 How do I know

00:58:28 that he was a real prophet?

00:58:30 These things

00:58:31 that he will mention happening,

00:58:32 he said that will happen

00:58:33 in the future,

00:58:34 that are happening today,

00:58:34 exactly the way

00:58:36 he described them

00:58:37 in front of our eyes.

00:58:38 He was a prophet

00:58:40 and a messenger of God.

00:58:40 For example,

00:58:41 the Prophet ﷺ mentioned

00:58:42 that you will see

00:58:43 the barefoot of Bedouin Arabs. 0.98

00:58:45 The Bedouin Arabs.

00:58:46 He said you will see

00:58:47 the barefoot of Bedouin Arabs 1.00

00:58:48 competing in constructing

00:58:49 the tallest buildings.

00:58:50 Where's the tallest building

00:58:51 in the world today?

00:58:53 Dubai.

00:58:53 Yeah, Burj Khalifa.

00:58:54 And then you've got

00:58:55 other countries

00:58:56 like Saudi 1.00

00:58:57 and this country.

00:58:58 All these Bedouin countries 1.00

00:58:59 are competing with each other

00:59:01 and building the tallest building,

00:59:02 right?

00:59:03 So the Prophet ﷺ

00:59:03 he said,

00:59:04 they will compete

00:59:05 with one another

00:59:06 in building tall buildings.

00:59:08 And if you go back

00:59:09 like 50 years ago,

00:59:10 Dubai was a desert,

00:59:10 right?

00:59:11 So because Dubai

00:59:12 was a desert,

00:59:13 they did not have

00:59:14 financial capacity

00:59:15 even if they were not builders.

00:59:16 You know,

00:59:17 they're bringing people

00:59:18 from abroad now

00:59:19 paying them money

00:59:19 to construct buildings,

00:59:20 right?

00:59:21 But in the past,

00:59:21 before the discovery of oil

00:59:23 or the oil being

00:59:24 of the value

00:59:25 that it is today,

00:59:25 you could not have

00:59:26 constructed these buildings.

00:59:27 You could not have

00:59:27 been competing.

00:59:28 So this is something

00:59:29 that Prophet ﷺ

00:59:30 mentioned that

00:59:30 the Bedouin Arabs

00:59:31 would be doing

00:59:32 and he mentioned

00:59:32 something about the earth.

00:59:37 Because that wasn't hard.

00:59:39 That wasn't hard.

00:59:40 pieces of a sliver.

00:59:42 And like gold and silver,

00:59:44 etc.

00:59:44 It will puke treasures. 0.97

00:59:46 And then he also said,

00:59:47 money will become abundant.

00:59:50 Look at all of this money

00:59:51 that has come from oil

00:59:52 and has been sadly wasted

00:59:54 on things which are not

00:59:55 important in many parts,

00:59:57 right?

00:59:58 But these are some of the things

00:59:59 that Prophet ﷺ said.

01:00:00 He said, for example,

01:00:01 about usury and interest.

01:00:03 Because we talked about

01:00:03 usury and interest.

01:00:04 They will become so widespread,

01:00:06 globally,

01:00:07 that if even anyone

01:00:08 tries to avoid it,

01:00:09 most like Muslims, 0.97

01:00:10 they will still be afflicted 0.99

01:00:11 by its dust.

01:00:12 Like for example,

01:00:13 we have to deal with

01:00:13 the banks,

01:00:14 you know,

01:00:15 have a debit card

01:00:16 even if it's a current account.

01:00:17 You're still using a bank

01:00:18 which uses interest.

01:00:19 Every single bank

01:00:19 is using interest, right?

01:00:21 Most of the Haram police 0.96

01:00:22 are still probably involved

01:00:23 in interest in some way

01:00:24 or another.

01:00:24 Yeah, but this is not...

01:00:25 Or like student loans

01:00:26 or credit cards

01:00:27 or something.

01:00:28 Yeah, look,

01:00:29 usually the people

01:00:30 with the loudest voices

01:00:31 of criticism

01:00:31 are projecting.

01:00:33 Most of the time

01:00:34 it's a sad case, right?

01:00:35 But the thing is,

01:00:36 this is not

01:00:37 an involvement of interest

01:00:38 that is haram

01:00:39 from an Islam point of view.

01:00:40 Like that I have,

01:00:41 if you call it an involvement,

01:00:42 because it's not

01:00:42 a direct involvement.

01:00:44 Like if I have

01:00:44 a current account

01:00:46 where I don't take interest,

01:00:47 but I'm forced to do it

01:00:48 because, for example,

01:00:49 this country operates

01:00:50 in which I will need

01:00:51 a credit card.

01:00:52 Sorry,

01:00:52 I will need a debit card, right?

01:00:54 To deal with working,

01:00:55 to do certain things.

01:00:56 I'm not going to be able

01:00:56 to do them

01:00:57 except if I have that card.

01:00:58 You cannot get jobs

01:00:59 in certain places

01:01:00 except if you have it, right?

01:01:02 So that's not

01:01:02 a direct involvement

01:01:03 in interest.

01:01:04 That's something that you do

01:01:05 because you're forced.

01:01:06 So this becomes an exception

01:01:07 and you're not a sinner

01:01:08 for doing that thing

01:01:09 because you have

01:01:09 no other choice, right?

01:01:10 But we're talking about

01:01:11 directly involving.

01:01:12 That's why the Prophet 0.99

01:01:13 said it will still

01:01:14 have effects on us.

01:01:15 And he used the term

01:01:16 of like the dust

01:01:17 of it hitting us.

01:01:18 So there are like effects,

01:01:20 after effects

01:01:21 of user and interest

01:01:23 that are happening

01:01:23 to Muslims.

01:01:24 Even if we're not using it,

01:01:24 we're not happy with it.

01:01:25 But it still happens

01:01:26 and it's still effects

01:01:27 of user and interest, right?

01:01:28 The Prophet

01:01:29 said,

01:01:29 for example,

01:01:30 that the deserts

01:01:31 of Arabia

01:01:31 will become green again.

01:01:33 It will come back

01:01:34 to be in Meduzan rivers.

01:01:36 He said,

01:01:36 the deserts

01:01:39 of the Arabs 0.53

01:01:39 will come back

01:01:40 to be

01:01:41 will be rivers.

01:01:44 And Meduzan rivers.

01:01:45 And today,

01:01:45 look,

01:01:46 there's this

01:01:47 NASA article

01:01:50 that people can check.

01:01:51 Saudi Arabia,

01:01:52 greening of Saudi Arabia,

01:01:53 NASA.

01:01:53 It will show you

01:01:54 pictures of Saudi Arabia

01:01:55 from like 1970s

01:01:57 until today.

01:01:58 Like it comes from

01:01:59 yellow,

01:02:00 you know,

01:02:00 deserts to green.

01:02:01 You know,

01:02:02 it's turning exactly

01:02:02 the way the Prophet 0.79

01:02:03 said.

01:02:04 But he also said

01:02:05 it was in the past

01:02:06 because he said

01:02:06 it will come back

01:02:07 to being.

01:02:08 And today,

01:02:10 we can open

01:02:10 Nature,

01:02:12 Middle East.

01:02:13 They have an article

01:02:14 on the past

01:02:15 of the deserts

01:02:16 of Arabia.

01:02:17 It was all green,

01:02:18 Meduzan rivers.

01:02:18 How do we know?

01:02:19 We have traces

01:02:19 of Asian lakes

01:02:20 that we've observed

01:02:21 using satellites.

01:02:22 We have fossils

01:02:24 of animals

01:02:24 that only live

01:02:25 in rich environment,

01:02:26 water-rich environment.

01:02:28 Like,

01:02:28 you know,

01:02:29 you have an elephant

01:02:29 or this or that.

01:02:30 These fossils

01:02:30 show that this place

01:02:31 was filled

01:02:32 with water

01:02:32 and vegetation,

01:02:33 right?

01:02:34 So the Prophet

01:02:34 is not only

01:02:35 telling you

01:02:35 the future now,

01:02:36 he's also telling you

01:02:36 things that happened

01:02:37 in the past.

01:02:38 That he didn't have

01:02:38 access to satellites.

01:02:39 He didn't have access

01:02:40 to these things

01:02:40 that we have today

01:02:41 which we're able

01:02:42 to discover

01:02:42 and know

01:02:43 these certain things.

01:02:44 So the Prophet

01:02:45 literally named

01:02:48 the countries

01:02:48 that Islam 0.98

01:02:49 was spread to

01:02:49 after his death

01:02:50 which happened

01:02:50 later on.

01:02:52 He said that

01:02:52 Islam will spread 1.00

01:02:53 to Egypt

01:02:53 by name.

01:02:55 And then he said

01:02:55 you can say Levant,

01:02:57 you have Jordan,

01:02:58 you have Yemen, 0.76

01:02:58 you have India, 0.96

01:03:00 Pakistan,

01:03:00 Hind and Sin, 0.82

01:03:01 and then you have

01:03:02 Persia and Rome.

01:03:05 He said Persia and Rome,

01:03:06 right?

01:03:07 Overcoming these empires

01:03:08 which is exactly

01:03:09 what happened.

01:03:10 Overcoming Persia and Rome, 1.00

01:03:11 right?

01:03:12 And then he said

01:03:13 when that king,

01:03:14 the Roman or Persian king

01:03:15 dies in that region

01:03:15 he'll be the last

01:03:16 Roman and Persian king

01:03:17 in that region

01:03:18 and they were the last

01:03:19 Roman and Persian king

01:03:19 in that region.

01:03:20 He named the countries.

01:03:24 Literally.

01:03:25 I told you it was not

01:03:28 a good idea.

01:03:28 These things could

01:03:29 have been false.

01:03:31 How do you

01:03:32 looking at a chicken?

01:03:33 Bro, I'm looking at...

01:03:34 Bro.

01:03:35 You're like...

01:03:36 When we...

01:03:36 We're going to take over

01:03:37 Russia now

01:03:38 and end the war,

01:03:39 you know?

01:03:40 I can make a prediction

01:03:41 but what is the likelihood

01:03:42 of that prediction?

01:03:44 And you know

01:03:44 when the prophet

01:03:45 said about

01:03:47 this prophecy

01:03:49 was made?

01:03:50 There was a battle

01:03:51 the prophet

01:03:52 was fighting

01:03:53 against an army

01:03:53 that is three times

01:03:54 their number.

01:03:55 And they were building

01:03:56 a trench

01:03:57 and there was a big rock

01:03:58 that they couldn't break.

01:04:00 So they called the prophet

01:04:01 to help them break the rock.

01:04:02 So they do not know

01:04:03 if they're living tomorrow or not.

01:04:04 There's an army

01:04:05 three times the number

01:04:05 coming to destroy them.

01:04:07 Bani Khuraida 0.99

01:04:08 which is a Jewish tribe

01:04:09 betrayed them from the back.

01:04:10 And now they are in the middle.

01:04:12 You do not know

01:04:12 if they're going to live tomorrow or not.

01:04:13 And the prophet

01:04:13 breaking the rock

01:04:14 is telling them

01:04:15 that I've been given

01:04:16 the keys to Rome.

01:04:17 I've been given

01:04:17 the keys to Brazil.

01:04:19 He's telling them

01:04:19 this in a scenario

01:04:21 where they don't even know

01:04:22 saying this

01:04:25 you know

01:04:25 when Muslims had 1.00

01:04:26 like armies and power

01:04:27 and you get the point.

01:04:28 Like it's an easy

01:04:29 thing to predict.

01:04:29 Okay we have armies and powers

01:04:31 we're a super power

01:04:31 we're going to take over

01:04:32 this and that.

01:04:32 No.

01:04:33 Prophet ﷺ was talking

01:04:35 about things

01:04:35 which in a situation

01:04:37 in a state

01:04:38 where people didn't even know

01:04:39 that they were going to live

01:04:39 the next day.

01:04:43 Prophecies of the future

01:04:45 from the Prophet ﷺ

01:04:46 and these are just

01:04:46 some of them.

01:04:47 Many, many, many, many

01:04:49 prophecies of the Prophet ﷺ

01:04:51 that we're observing today.

01:04:53 That makes us sure

01:04:54 one of the evidences

01:04:58 by the way

01:04:58 are many, many more

01:04:59 and they can add more maybe.

01:05:01 I don't want to scare

01:05:02 the viewers

01:05:02 if they're

01:05:02 I'm thinking about

01:05:04 if there's new Muslims 1.00

01:05:05 watching

01:05:05 what advice would you

01:05:07 would you have to give

01:05:07 to people

01:05:08 if they're

01:05:08 you know

01:05:09 it's my

01:05:09 first Ramadan

01:05:11 to people

01:05:12 doing their first Ramadan

01:05:14 right now.

01:05:15 How would

01:05:15 should they jump

01:05:16 into it all the way?

01:05:17 Should they slowly

01:05:18 get into it?

01:05:18 How do you first

01:05:19 do it?

01:05:20 Before you say that

01:05:21 it's not about scaring them

01:05:23 it's about giving them

01:05:23 a reality check

01:05:24 nowadays people

01:05:25 they don't get

01:05:26 that reality check

01:05:27 so sometimes

01:05:28 you have to give them

01:05:29 that harsh reality check

01:05:30 and that's what

01:05:30 makes people change

01:05:32 you know

01:05:32 but yeah go ahead

01:05:33 continue

01:05:33 Yeah that's why

01:05:34 you should watch

01:05:34 his videos

01:05:35 you know

01:05:35 he gives them

01:05:35 a proper reality check

01:05:37 yeah yeah exactly

01:05:39 like sometimes

01:05:40 this is a problem

01:05:41 you've been talking

01:05:43 about this yourself

01:05:43 you've been talking

01:05:44 about how the people

01:05:45 have become so fragile

01:05:46 that you cannot tell

01:05:47 them anything anymore

01:05:47 you know

01:05:48 they become so sensitive

01:05:49 but now you're applying

01:05:51 the opposite of

01:05:52 what you preach

01:05:52 because you say

01:05:53 okay people are 0.97

01:05:54 going to be sensitive

01:05:54 we're just telling

01:05:55 them what it's true

01:05:56 why would you

01:05:57 here's the difference

01:05:58 I have to

01:05:59 interject

01:06:00 interject here

01:06:01 because what I would

01:06:03 say is this bro

01:06:03 it's like

01:06:04 the Prophet Muhammad

01:06:05 said in the hadith

01:06:06 he says

01:06:06 in the dina yus

01:06:07 yes

01:06:08 that certainly

01:06:12 the religion is easy 0.91

01:06:13 and no one

01:06:14 over burdens

01:06:15 himself with the

01:06:15 religion except 0.81

01:06:16 that it will

01:06:17 push him away

01:06:18 in a way

01:06:19 it will overcome him

01:06:19 so

01:06:20 I do think

01:06:23 we do have

01:06:24 an advantage

01:06:24 we have to be

01:06:25 honest

01:06:25 our advantage

01:06:27 is that

01:06:27 we're born

01:06:28 and raised

01:06:29 in a Muslim

01:06:29 environment

01:06:30 and when you're

01:06:32 born and raised

01:06:32 in a Muslim

01:06:33 environment

01:06:34 your tolerance

01:06:35 for Islamic

01:06:36 practice goes up

01:06:37 your ability

01:06:39 to restrict yourself

01:06:40 in certain context

01:06:41 is higher

01:06:42 your threshold

01:06:42 is higher

01:06:43 one of the

01:06:44 books that I

01:06:45 was recommending

01:06:46 to the brother

01:06:46 I told him

01:06:48 about Dopamine

01:06:48 Nation

01:06:48 another one

01:06:49 that I

01:06:49 recognized

01:06:49 and I was

01:06:50 speaking to you

01:06:51 about it as

01:06:51 well

01:06:51 you read a lot

01:06:53 you're listening

01:06:54 to books in the

01:06:55 car

01:06:55 I like it

01:06:56 there's one

01:06:58 good book

01:06:59 I honestly

01:07:00 I read it

01:07:03 I listened to it

01:07:04 and then I

01:07:05 started looking

01:07:06 at discussions

01:07:06 it's called

01:07:07 Willpower

01:07:07 by Roy

01:07:09 Baumeister

01:07:09 and basically

01:07:12 he's saying

01:07:13 this

01:07:13 he's saying

01:07:15 that

01:07:15 a human being

01:07:17 has

01:07:17 he called it

01:07:18 the ego

01:07:18 depletion

01:07:19 model

01:07:19 he says

01:07:20 a human being

01:07:20 has

01:07:20 effectively

01:07:22 a limited

01:07:22 level of

01:07:23 willpower

01:07:23 and different

01:07:25 activities

01:07:26 that they do

01:07:27 contribute to

01:07:28 the depletion

01:07:30 of that

01:07:30 willpower

01:07:30 so for example

01:07:32 he done a

01:07:35 study called

01:07:36 the radish

01:07:36 experiment

01:07:36 in his

01:07:37 laboratory

01:07:37 so what he

01:07:38 done is

01:07:39 he got some

01:07:39 people

01:07:39 and he

01:07:41 told them

01:07:41 to fast

01:07:42 funny enough

01:07:43 it's Ramadan

01:07:43 right

01:07:43 and then he

01:07:44 put in front

01:07:45 of them

01:07:45 like a cake

01:07:46 something

01:07:47 a brownie

01:07:47 the caramel

01:07:48 or something

01:07:48 nice

01:07:48 and radish

01:07:49 and radish

01:07:50 and he told

01:07:51 them look

01:07:52 you can have

01:07:53 don't eat the

01:07:54 cake

01:07:54 but have the

01:07:56 radish

01:07:56 some people

01:07:58 ate the cake

01:07:58 some people

01:07:59 ate the radish

01:07:59 because some

01:08:00 of them were

01:08:00 hungry

01:08:00 right

01:08:01 then he gave

01:08:02 them a second

01:08:02 experiment

01:08:03 he gave them

01:08:04 an unsolvable

01:08:05 puzzle

01:08:05 okay

01:08:06 so it's a

01:08:07 puzzle which

01:08:07 is unsolvable

01:08:08 and then he

01:08:09 wanted to see

01:08:10 how long they

01:08:10 would take

01:08:11 before they

01:08:11 gave up on

01:08:12 the unsolvable

01:08:12 puzzle

01:08:13 so the ones

01:08:15 who had

01:08:15 the radish

01:08:16 the ones who

01:08:18 did have the

01:08:18 radish

01:08:19 spend longer on

01:08:19 the puzzle

01:08:20 no they

01:08:21 would in fact

01:08:21 give up quicker

01:08:23 really

01:08:24 the ones who

01:08:24 ate the cake

01:08:25 would spend

01:08:25 more time on

01:08:26 the puzzle

01:08:26 wow

01:08:27 so the point

01:08:28 is this is

01:08:28 because this

01:08:29 is his

01:08:29 theory

01:08:30 his theory

01:08:31 is because

01:08:32 you would think

01:08:32 they have more

01:08:33 willpower they

01:08:33 should be able

01:08:34 to do both

01:08:34 right

01:08:34 his idea

01:08:36 is that

01:08:36 we have a

01:08:37 limited willpower

01:08:38 and they've

01:08:39 already consumed

01:08:39 all their

01:08:40 energy

01:08:40 okay

01:08:41 restricting

01:08:43 themselves for

01:08:43 the radish

01:08:44 experiment

01:08:44 so when they

01:08:45 came to

01:08:45 the answer

01:08:46 well they

01:08:46 had enough

01:08:46 now

01:08:47 they had

01:08:48 enough

01:08:48 so they

01:08:49 don't want

01:08:49 to do

01:08:50 two very

01:08:51 difficult tasks

01:08:52 one after

01:08:52 the other

01:08:52 you see

01:08:53 now why

01:08:54 this is very

01:08:54 important

01:08:55 is because

01:08:55 we're doing

01:09:00 sports

01:09:00 we're doing

01:09:01 religion

01:09:01 we're doing

01:09:02 relationships

01:09:03 and all of

01:09:05 that stuff

01:09:05 actually

01:09:06 takes away

01:09:07 it depletes

01:09:08 from our

01:09:09 willpower

01:09:10 now

01:09:12 if you

01:09:13 if you do

01:09:15 too much

01:09:15 too early

01:09:16 you will give

01:09:16 up

01:09:17 this is the

01:09:18 truth

01:09:18 which is why

01:09:20 I agree with

01:09:20 the sentiment

01:09:21 that with a

01:09:21 reaver or

01:09:22 someone coming

01:09:22 into islam

01:09:23 they should

01:09:24 focus on the

01:09:25 bare basics

01:09:26 so

01:09:27 we're agreeing

01:09:28 absolutely

01:09:29 we're talking

01:09:30 about something

01:09:30 else

01:09:30 yeah

01:09:31 I'm with

01:09:31 you

01:09:31 I'm with

01:09:33 you

01:09:33 but we

01:09:35 didn't

01:09:35 clarify

01:09:36 so it's

01:09:36 good

01:09:36 one thing

01:09:37 that this

01:09:37 guy

01:09:37 he said

01:09:38 as well

01:09:38 which I

01:09:38 find

01:09:39 interesting

01:09:39 he said

01:09:39 that he

01:09:40 was effectively

01:09:41 talking about

01:09:42 willpower

01:09:43 as a muscle

01:09:43 because he

01:09:44 was saying

01:09:45 that willpower

01:09:45 works in a

01:09:46 way that

01:09:47 you can

01:09:48 actually increase

01:09:49 your threshold

01:09:50 for it

01:09:50 so

01:09:52 let me give

01:09:53 an example

01:09:54 people now

01:09:54 have been

01:09:54 doing cold

01:09:55 plunges

01:09:56 jumping onto

01:09:56 the

01:09:56 I don't

01:09:57 know if

01:09:57 you engaged

01:09:57 in that

01:09:58 sneaker

01:09:58 or not

01:09:58 yeah

01:09:58 cold

01:09:59 plunges

01:09:59 yeah

01:10:00 now

01:10:00 some people

01:10:01 are really

01:10:01 into it

01:10:02 they do it

01:10:02 every day

01:10:02 okay

01:10:04 and whatever

01:10:06 you know

01:10:06 they say

01:10:06 I want to

01:10:07 get

01:10:07 you've heard

01:10:07 Joe Rogan

01:10:08 I want to

01:10:09 get into

01:10:09 the first

01:10:10 thing I want

01:10:10 to do

01:10:10 is the hardest

01:10:11 thing of the day

01:10:11 blah blah blah blah blah

01:10:12 but actually

01:10:13 actually on the ego

01:10:13 it's not a good idea

01:10:15 to do it every day

01:10:16 because it's a very

01:10:16 stressful activity

01:10:17 and if you do

01:10:18 a very stressful

01:10:19 activity

01:10:19 you're less likely

01:10:20 to be able to do

01:10:21 more of those

01:10:21 stressful activities

01:10:22 so if you're

01:10:22 going to waste

01:10:23 your credits

01:10:24 on a cold

01:10:25 shower

01:10:26 or a cold

01:10:27 plunge

01:10:28 yeah you might

01:10:28 increase your

01:10:29 tolerance for it

01:10:29 but at the end

01:10:30 of the day

01:10:30 it's a very

01:10:31 stressful activity

01:10:32 right

01:10:32 but at the same

01:10:34 time your

01:10:35 threshold can

01:10:36 increase

01:10:36 so the same

01:10:37 thing can be

01:10:38 said about

01:10:38 religion

01:10:38 fasting is a

01:10:40 very stressful

01:10:41 activity

01:10:41 to put it

01:10:42 bluntly

01:10:43 and it's

01:10:43 meant to be

01:10:43 it's a very

01:10:45 stressful

01:10:45 because you're

01:10:46 meant to

01:10:46 abstain from

01:10:46 food

01:10:47 from drink

01:10:48 from sexual 0.73

01:10:49 intercourse

01:10:49 even the way

01:10:51 you talk

01:10:51 all that kind

01:10:52 of stuff

01:10:52 that's why

01:10:52 when fasting

01:10:53 finishes for a

01:10:54 lot of people

01:10:54 they just

01:10:54 go to the

01:10:56 other extreme

01:10:56 binge eating

01:10:57 binge eating

01:10:58 this one

01:10:58 that one

01:10:59 you see what

01:10:59 happens here

01:11:00 in the UK

01:11:01 because people

01:11:02 they're just

01:11:02 letting go

01:11:03 what Islam

01:11:04 wants to

01:11:05 introduce

01:11:06 I feel

01:11:06 is a kind

01:11:07 of moderation

01:11:07 that's why

01:11:08 when the

01:11:08 Prophet

01:11:09 he was

01:11:09 asked

01:11:10 what's the

01:11:15 best deeds

01:11:16 he says

01:11:16 he said

01:11:19 the most

01:11:19 consistent one

01:11:20 even if it's

01:11:21 small

01:11:21 that's what

01:11:22 the Prophet

01:11:22 replied

01:11:23 now they

01:11:23 self-help

01:11:24 is coming to

01:11:25 the same

01:11:25 conclusion

01:11:26 I recently

01:11:27 read another

01:11:27 book called

01:11:28 Atomic Habits

01:11:29 very famous

01:11:29 one by James

01:11:31 Clear

01:11:31 and he says

01:11:32 the same

01:11:32 thing

01:11:33 consistency

01:11:34 is the

01:11:35 most important

01:11:36 thing

01:11:36 so

01:11:37 the Prophet

01:11:38 told himself

01:11:39 he said

01:11:40 don't do

01:11:41 don't do

01:11:45 what you

01:11:45 cannot handle

01:11:46 so you have

01:11:47 to know

01:11:47 where your

01:11:48 limits are

01:11:48 a little bit

01:11:49 because if

01:11:50 you're trying

01:11:50 to jump

01:11:51 into

01:11:51 it'll be

01:11:53 too much

01:11:53 so there

01:11:55 needs to be

01:11:55 a level

01:11:56 of prioritization

01:11:57 taking things

01:11:58 before I used

01:11:59 to get into

01:11:59 Ramadan

01:12:00 and jump

01:12:00 into it

01:12:00 and I used

01:12:01 to say

01:12:02 I'm going

01:12:02 to read

01:12:02 the Quran

01:12:03 multiple times

01:12:04 and by

01:12:05 mid-Ramadan

01:12:05 I'd be

01:12:06 exhausted

01:12:06 so I've

01:12:07 learned this

01:12:07 time

01:12:08 I'm not

01:12:08 going to

01:12:08 do this

01:12:08 I'm going

01:12:10 to take

01:12:10 it easy

01:12:10 now

01:12:11 one

01:12:12 two

01:12:12 three

01:12:13 maximum

01:12:14 a day

01:12:15 because if I

01:12:16 try and do

01:12:17 too much

01:12:17 too early

01:12:17 I'm going 0.76

01:12:18 to burn

01:12:18 out

01:12:18 how do you

01:12:20 push yourself

01:12:20 near the end

01:12:22 maybe

01:12:22 how do you

01:12:23 improve that

01:12:23 base level

01:12:24 for me

01:12:26 I keep

01:12:27 doing it

01:12:27 but do you

01:12:28 know what I

01:12:29 mean

01:12:29 you can

01:12:30 improve

01:12:31 yourself

01:12:31 there's a

01:12:33 balance

01:12:33 here

01:12:33 but what

01:12:34 I'm trying

01:12:34 to say

01:12:34 is that

01:12:35 you need

01:12:37 to know

01:12:37 your own

01:12:37 limitations

01:12:38 as well

01:12:38 I think

01:12:39 you know

01:12:39 yeah

01:12:39 so what

01:12:40 you're saying

01:12:40 look

01:12:41 we don't

01:12:42 disagree

01:12:42 with what

01:12:43 you're saying

01:12:43 because

01:12:43 what me

01:12:44 and the

01:12:44 owner

01:12:44 are talking

01:12:45 about

01:12:45 is

01:12:45 completely

01:12:45 different

01:12:45 so

01:12:46 me

01:12:46 and the

01:12:46 owner

01:12:46 are more

01:12:47 thinking

01:12:47 from

01:12:48 the idea

01:12:48 of

01:12:49 telling people

01:12:50 about

01:12:50 Islam

01:12:50 this is

01:12:51 what

01:12:51 we're

01:12:51 talking

01:12:51 about

01:12:51 telling

01:12:52 people

01:12:52 the

01:12:52 truth

01:12:52 right

01:12:52 so

01:12:53 his

01:12:53 question

01:12:53 was

01:12:54 about

01:12:54 the

01:12:54 river

01:12:54 which

01:12:54 is

01:12:55 why

01:12:55 you

01:12:55 replied

01:12:56 in

01:12:56 that

01:12:56 sense

01:12:56 which

01:12:56 makes

01:12:57 perfect

01:12:57 sense

01:12:57 right

01:12:57 we

01:12:58 didn't

01:12:58 clarify

01:12:58 what

01:12:58 we

01:12:59 meant

01:12:59 me

01:12:59 and

01:12:59 the

01:12:59 warning

01:12:59 right

01:12:59 because

01:13:00 I was

01:13:00 talking

01:13:00 about

01:13:01 for example

01:13:01 he's

01:13:02 the messenger

01:13:02 of God

01:13:02 etc

01:13:03 so

01:13:03 what me

01:13:04 and the

01:13:04 one

01:13:04 are

01:13:04 referring

01:13:04 to

01:13:05 is

01:13:05 the idea

01:13:06 of

01:13:06 not being

01:13:07 scared

01:13:07 saying

01:13:08 that

01:13:08 being honest

01:13:09 yeah

01:13:09 of saying

01:13:10 the truth

01:13:10 or talking

01:13:11 about the

01:13:11 teachings

01:13:12 of Islam

01:13:12 why is

01:13:13 the truth

01:13:13 why is

01:13:13 it

01:13:13 right

01:13:14 etc

01:13:15 yeah

01:13:16 these

01:13:16 things

01:13:16 but when

01:13:17 it

01:13:17 comes

01:13:17 to

01:13:17 like

01:13:19 a new

01:13:19 Muslim

01:13:19 and how

01:13:20 this was

01:13:20 going to

01:13:20 come to

01:13:21 afterwards

01:13:21 because

01:13:22 it was

01:13:22 like

01:13:23 an interjection

01:13:24 in the middle

01:13:25 when the

01:13:25 owner came

01:13:25 but I knew

01:13:26 what he was

01:13:26 thinking

01:13:27 right

01:13:27 that's why

01:13:27 I was

01:13:27 supporting

01:13:28 him

01:13:28 in that

01:13:28 sense

01:13:29 yes

01:13:29 so what

01:13:29 I was

01:13:30 telling you

01:13:30 not going

01:13:30 against

01:13:30 what you

01:13:31 say

01:13:31 this is

01:13:32 what I

01:13:32 mean

01:13:32 is being

01:13:33 okay

01:13:34 I'm not

01:13:34 going to

01:13:34 tell the

01:13:35 Christians

01:13:35 Islam is

01:13:36 the truth

01:13:36 for example

01:13:37 or I'm

01:13:37 not going

01:13:37 to say

01:13:38 because I'm

01:13:38 afraid

01:13:39 that I'm

01:13:39 going to

01:13:39 push 0.64

01:13:39 them

01:13:39 away

01:13:40 there is

01:13:40 a good

01:13:41 way

01:13:41 a nice

01:13:43 way

01:13:43 a right

01:13:43 way

01:13:44 of doing

01:13:44 that

01:13:44 of saying

01:13:44 Islam is

01:13:45 the truth

01:13:45 given

01:13:45 this is

01:13:46 demonstrating

01:13:46 it

01:13:47 and not

01:13:48 shying

01:13:48 away

01:13:48 just

01:13:49 because

01:13:49 we are

01:13:49 afraid

01:13:50 certain

01:13:50 people

01:13:51 might

01:13:51 be

01:13:51 offended

01:13:52 if we

01:13:52 say

01:13:52 Islam

01:13:52 is

01:13:52 the truth

01:13:53 right

01:13:53 so that's

01:13:53 one thing

01:13:54 now when it

01:13:54 comes to

01:13:55 a new

01:13:55 Muslim

01:13:56 coming into

01:13:56 Islam

01:13:56 now

01:13:57 first

01:13:58 commenting

01:13:59 just a little

01:13:59 bit on what

01:14:00 you said

01:14:00 right

01:14:00 so the idea

01:14:01 of like

01:14:01 this is in

01:14:02 the theory

01:14:03 of an individual

01:14:03 who wrote

01:14:04 a book

01:14:04 his theory

01:14:05 is that

01:14:06 there is a

01:14:06 level of

01:14:07 willpower

01:14:07 and that

01:14:11 in the end

01:14:12 it's a theory

01:14:13 and it has

01:14:14 been challenged

01:14:15 and if you

01:14:17 look at

01:14:17 certain people

01:14:17 I think

01:14:18 not all

01:14:19 people are

01:14:19 the same

01:14:20 this is the

01:14:20 thing

01:14:20 we've got

01:14:20 people like

01:14:21 for example

01:14:21 you mentioned

01:14:22 I don't

01:14:22 follow him

01:14:22 I never

01:14:23 watch a podcast

01:14:24 of him

01:14:24 in my life

01:14:24 but the

01:14:25 thing is

01:14:25 he could

01:14:26 actually be

01:14:26 doing it

01:14:27 every day

01:14:27 right

01:14:27 and doing

01:14:28 other stressful

01:14:28 activities

01:14:29 he could

01:14:29 this idea

01:14:31 of pressure

01:14:32 could be

01:14:33 that you

01:14:33 could build

01:14:33 more

01:14:34 he says

01:14:35 that as well

01:14:35 another theory

01:14:36 for example

01:14:37 you can make

01:14:38 he mentions

01:14:39 that

01:14:39 okay that's

01:14:40 interesting

01:14:41 but from the

01:14:42 outside looking

01:14:42 in as a new

01:14:43 muslim

01:14:43 I gotta say 0.82

01:14:44 if you learn

01:14:44 all the rules

01:14:45 automatically

01:14:46 you're gonna

01:14:47 push people

01:14:48 away

01:14:48 I was in

01:14:49 the majah

01:14:49 the other day

01:14:50 I was just

01:14:50 reading the

01:14:50 quran after 0.92

01:14:51 dohr prayer

01:14:53 and a

01:14:54 Saudi man

01:14:54 came over

01:14:54 to me

01:14:55 full attire

01:14:55 he's sitting

01:14:56 down next

01:14:57 to me

01:14:57 he starts

01:14:58 pointing at

01:14:58 my tattoos

01:14:59 and he starts

01:14:59 talking

01:14:59 not only that

01:15:01 the tattoos

01:15:01 you should

01:15:02 remove it

01:15:02 but he's

01:15:03 showing me

01:15:03 these videos

01:15:04 his friend

01:15:04 is a muslim

01:15:05 influencer

01:15:06 and the

01:15:06 video he's

01:15:07 playing

01:15:07 is talking

01:15:08 about how

01:15:09 if you have

01:15:10 your children

01:15:11 and they're

01:15:11 drawing pictures

01:15:12 of animals

01:15:12 tell them to

01:15:13 not complete

01:15:14 the drawing

01:15:14 of the animal

01:15:15 because it's

01:15:15 haram to draw

01:15:16 an animal

01:15:16 and it's like

01:15:17 imagine telling

01:15:18 somebody who's

01:15:19 interested in

01:15:19 Islam

01:15:19 that you have

01:15:20 to tell your

01:15:21 kids

01:15:21 that it's

01:15:22 haram to draw

01:15:23 an animal

01:15:23 like a five

01:15:24 year old kid

01:15:24 drawing a tiger

01:15:25 and you're

01:15:25 like nope

01:15:26 don't finish

01:15:26 the tiger

01:15:27 like if you

01:15:28 completely

01:15:28 bombard them

01:15:29 with all 0.65

01:15:29 the rules

01:15:29 it's going

01:15:30 to push

01:15:30 people away

01:15:30 before you

01:15:31 that's what

01:15:31 she said

01:15:34 that if

01:15:35 all the rules

01:15:36 had come down

01:15:37 before people

01:15:38 had a good

01:15:38 idea of what

01:15:39 heaven is

01:15:39 and what

01:15:40 hell is

01:15:40 people wouldn't

01:15:41 believe in

01:15:41 you

01:15:42 so there's

01:15:43 one thing

01:15:44 the other

01:15:44 thing is

01:15:45 the David

01:15:49 Goggins

01:15:50 if you like

01:15:51 approached

01:15:51 Islam

01:15:52 you've got

01:15:53 to do it

01:15:53 yeah that's

01:15:55 wrong

01:15:55 that's what

01:15:56 I'm actually

01:15:57 like David

01:15:59 Goggins I like

01:15:59 him I actually

01:16:00 listen to him

01:16:00 sometimes but

01:16:00 I can't listen

01:16:01 to him all

01:16:01 the time

01:16:02 because it's

01:16:03 I'm not sure

01:16:04 you've seen

01:16:04 David Goggins

01:16:05 right

01:16:05 consider this

01:16:10 to be some

01:16:10 kind of light

01:16:11 refutation of

01:16:12 him I like

01:16:12 him by the way

01:16:13 but I think

01:16:14 I was listening

01:16:15 to him one

01:16:15 time I

01:16:16 listened to

01:16:16 his podcast

01:16:17 listened to

01:16:17 him with

01:16:17 Joe Rogan

01:16:18 recently with

01:16:19 Andrew Huberman

01:16:20 and he

01:16:22 said something

01:16:24 interesting

01:16:24 he said like

01:16:25 oh I can't

01:16:25 really read

01:16:26 for that long

01:16:26 oh after

01:16:28 about 20-30

01:16:29 minutes I

01:16:30 find it hard

01:16:30 but I keep

01:16:31 doing it

01:16:31 blah blah blah

01:16:31 now David

01:16:34 Goggins has

01:16:34 got a big

01:16:35 comfort zone

01:16:36 when it comes

01:16:36 to running

01:16:37 when it comes

01:16:37 to triathlon

01:16:38 when it comes

01:16:38 to sprinting

01:16:40 he can do

01:16:41 that we can't

01:16:41 do that

01:16:42 if you try to

01:16:42 go and do

01:16:43 running for

01:16:44 like David

01:16:44 Goggins

01:16:44 I would

01:16:45 collapse

01:16:46 I actually did

01:16:47 a marathon by

01:16:47 the way

01:16:48 because I wanted

01:16:49 to push myself

01:16:49 I said I'm

01:16:50 going to do a

01:16:50 marathon

01:16:50 I actually did

01:16:51 I completed

01:16:52 it and when

01:16:53 I finished

01:16:53 it I dropped

01:16:54 down and all

01:16:55 this kind of

01:16:55 stuff was in

01:16:55 Norway

01:16:55 it was one of

01:16:58 the most

01:16:58 challenging

01:16:58 things I've

01:16:59 done because

01:16:59 I was very

01:16:59 heavy like

01:17:00 you know

01:17:00 250 pounds

01:17:01 you know

01:17:06 what I'm

01:17:06 talking about

01:17:06 so if I

01:17:10 tried to keep

01:17:10 up with Goggins

01:17:11 or someone

01:17:11 like him I

01:17:12 wouldn't be

01:17:12 able to do

01:17:13 it but bring

01:17:14 him to a

01:17:14 library now

01:17:15 and now let's

01:17:16 let him

01:17:17 his comfort

01:17:18 zone is running

01:17:19 that's his

01:17:20 comfort zone

01:17:20 so let me

01:17:21 put you

01:17:22 in a library

01:17:23 for two

01:17:24 hours just

01:17:24 read and

01:17:25 then do this

01:17:25 examination and

01:17:26 you keep

01:17:26 failing you'll

01:17:27 see how

01:17:27 frustrating this

01:17:28 guy gets

01:17:28 or put him

01:17:29 in the MMA

01:17:29 ring I've

01:17:30 never seen

01:17:30 him fight

01:17:30 anybody

01:17:31 sorry

01:17:32 all due

01:17:32 respect to

01:17:33 David Goggins

01:17:34 your comfort zone

01:17:35 is running

01:17:35 and doing

01:17:36 pull-ups

01:17:37 that's your

01:17:38 comfort zone

01:17:38 he cornered

01:17:40 Tony Ferguson

01:17:40 in a fight

01:17:41 that's between

01:17:41 you and him

01:17:42 and the guy

01:17:42 he cornered

01:17:45 him but he

01:17:47 didn't fight

01:17:47 him

01:17:47 he cornered

01:17:48 Tony Ferguson

01:17:48 but he lost

01:17:49 you went against

01:17:51 Sean Strickland

01:17:52 the midway

01:17:52 champion

01:17:52 we haven't seen

01:17:54 him do anything

01:17:55 like this

01:17:55 get tough

01:17:56 get hard

01:17:56 let's see

01:17:56 go into the

01:17:57 ring with

01:17:58 a top guy

01:17:58 take the

01:17:59 punishment

01:17:59 I want to

01:18:00 see how

01:18:00 you handled

01:18:00 it

01:18:01 was he in

01:18:02 the military

01:18:02 or something

01:18:02 like that

01:18:03 maybe

01:18:03 he was in

01:18:04 the military

01:18:05 but I've never

01:18:05 seen him

01:18:06 David Goggins

01:18:08 was struggling

01:18:09 so what I'm

01:18:10 saying is that

01:18:10 willpower is

01:18:11 contextual

01:18:12 if you bring

01:18:13 someone who

01:18:14 have a very

01:18:14 heavy jahiliyyah 0.99

01:18:15 women everyday

01:18:16 this that

01:18:17 smoking weed

01:18:18 blah blah blah

01:18:18 and then you

01:18:19 bring them to

01:18:20 that

01:18:20 and then you

01:18:21 have to

01:18:22 bombard

01:18:22 it doesn't 0.97

01:18:22 matter how

01:18:23 they've been

01:18:23 David Goggins

01:18:24 in other fields

01:18:25 they won't be

01:18:26 able to be

01:18:26 David Goggins

01:18:26 in Islam

01:18:27 and it will

01:18:27 push them

01:18:28 away

01:18:28 so what I

01:18:30 mean is that

01:18:31 we have an

01:18:32 advantage

01:18:33 it's like

01:18:33 someone going

01:18:34 into the

01:18:34 cold plunge

01:18:35 every day

01:18:35 if someone

01:18:37 going into

01:18:38 a cold

01:18:38 plunge

01:18:38 every single

01:18:39 day

01:18:39 their tolerance

01:18:39 for the

01:18:40 cold water

01:18:40 is very

01:18:41 high

01:18:41 minor your

01:18:42 tolerance

01:18:42 for Islamic

01:18:43 teachings

01:18:44 and not

01:18:45 seeing a

01:18:45 woman in

01:18:45 a certain

01:18:46 way

01:18:46 and discussion

01:18:46 and this

01:18:47 and that

01:18:47 is high

01:18:48 because we've

01:18:48 been in a way

01:18:49 we've been

01:18:50 you know

01:18:50 raised on

01:18:51 this

01:18:51 but someone

01:18:52 has just

01:18:53 come in

01:18:53 his tolerance

01:18:55 is low

01:18:56 of all due

01:18:56 respect

01:18:56 and he needs

01:18:57 to be built

01:18:58 up slowly

01:18:58 so the way

01:18:59 I would do

01:18:59 it

01:18:59 I mean I

01:19:00 don't know

01:19:00 because you

01:19:00 get a lot

01:19:01 of

01:19:01 converse

01:19:01 as well

01:19:01 and you

01:19:02 do as

01:19:02 well

01:19:02 in Los

01:19:04 Angeles

01:19:04 and I

01:19:06 know

01:19:06 you

01:19:06 know

01:19:06 this

01:19:06 because

01:19:07 we've

01:19:07 had

01:19:07 this

01:19:07 conversation

01:19:08 already

01:19:08 but

01:19:08 the

01:19:09 first

01:19:10 thing

01:19:10 I

01:19:10 just

01:19:10 let

01:19:10 them

01:19:10 know

01:19:11 the

01:19:11 Quran

01:19:13 says

01:19:13 the

01:19:18 ones

01:19:18 who

01:19:18 leave

01:19:18 off

01:19:18 the

01:19:18 major

01:19:19 sins

01:19:19 and

01:19:20 the

01:19:20 lewd

01:19:21 sins

01:19:21 except

01:19:21 for

01:19:22 the

01:19:22 minor

01:19:22 sins

01:19:22 so the

01:19:23 first

01:19:23 thing

01:19:23 I

01:19:23 say

01:19:24 look

01:19:24 what

01:19:24 are

01:19:24 the

01:19:24 major

01:19:24 sins

01:19:25 that

01:19:26 you're

01:19:26 falling

01:19:27 into

01:19:27 so

01:19:27 what's

01:19:28 a

01:19:28 list

01:19:28 of

01:19:28 the

01:19:28 major

01:19:28 sins

01:19:29 being

01:19:29 bad

01:19:29 to

01:19:30 your

01:19:30 shirk

01:19:30 obviously

01:19:31 the

01:19:31 big

01:19:32 ones

01:19:32 and

01:19:34 then

01:19:34 being

01:19:34 bad

01:19:34 to

01:19:34 your

01:19:34 parents

01:19:35 let's

01:19:37 eliminate

01:19:37 those

01:19:37 ones

01:19:38 all

01:19:38 we're

01:19:39 going to

01:19:39 be

01:19:39 focusing

01:19:39 on

01:19:40 for

01:19:40 the

01:19:40 next

01:19:40 six

01:19:41 months

01:19:41 is

01:19:41 eliminating

01:19:42 the

01:19:42 major

01:19:42 sins

01:19:43 and

01:19:43 the

01:19:43 five

01:19:43 pillars

01:19:43 of

01:19:43 slap 0.97

01:19:43 that's

01:19:45 it

01:19:45 because

01:19:45 it's

01:19:45 not fair

01:19:46 that

01:19:46 you can

01:19:46 do

01:19:47 any

01:19:47 more

01:19:47 next

01:19:48 six

01:19:49 months

01:19:49 we're

01:19:49 still

01:19:50 struggling

01:19:50 on

01:19:50 these

01:19:50 issues

01:19:51 we'll

01:19:51 do

01:19:51 this

01:19:51 same

01:19:52 thing

01:19:52 we'll

01:19:53 work

01:19:53 on

01:19:53 it

01:19:53 for

01:19:53 another

01:19:53 year

01:19:54 now

01:19:54 year

01:19:55 two

01:19:56 your

01:19:56 tolerance

01:19:56 is a

01:19:56 bit

01:19:56 higher

01:19:57 now

01:19:57 so

01:19:58 we

01:19:58 introduce

01:19:59 some

01:19:59 of

01:19:59 the

01:19:59 music

01:20:00 we'll

01:20:01 talk

01:20:01 about

01:20:01 music

01:20:01 now

01:20:02 we'll

01:20:02 start

01:20:02 talking

01:20:02 about

01:20:02 it

01:20:02 in

01:20:02 more

01:20:03 detail

01:20:03 these

01:20:04 are

01:20:04 the

01:20:04 opinions

01:20:04 this

01:20:04 and

01:20:05 that

01:20:05 I

01:20:05 wouldn't

01:20:06 introduce

01:20:06 someone

01:20:06 music

01:20:07 and

01:20:07 drawing

01:20:08 because

01:20:08 it's not one of the major sins

01:20:09 by anyone

01:20:10 do you know what I mean

01:20:11 everyone is right

01:20:11 it's good to warn people and be honest about that

01:20:13 but when an addict gets out of rehab

01:20:15 you don't immediately go cold turkey

01:20:17 you give them methadone

01:20:18 you give them pills to go slowly

01:20:20 whane off from heroin

01:20:21 but one thing I would say is like

01:20:22 from my experience

01:20:23 is the majority of Muslims don't know how to speak to non-Muslims 0.98

01:20:27 that's what I've noticed

01:20:27 there's only specific people that know how to deal with non-Muslims 1.00

01:20:31 so you shouldn't allow those people to deal with them

01:20:34 if you don't know how to deal with non-Muslims 1.00

01:20:36 then why are you trying to deal with non-Muslims 1.00

01:20:37 you're just gonna scare them away

01:20:38 but this is what I wanted to comment on

01:20:40 is like

01:20:40 there are different aspects

01:20:42 like for

01:20:42 absolutely me and him are in agreement

01:20:44 whatever he's saying

01:20:45 to do with the reverse of the conference

01:20:47 because

01:20:48 both of our points is about sharing the truth right

01:20:50 it's not being apologetic when you're sharing the truth

01:20:52 you have to share the truth

01:20:53 say the way that

01:20:54 okay Islam doesn't accept homosexuality

01:20:55 these things that we're talking about right

01:20:56 is that we will talk about these things unapologetically

01:20:59 now when it comes to dealing with you Muslims 1.00

01:21:00 first I want to mention a very

01:21:02 look at what happened to you in a positive manner first

01:21:04 that's what I want to do

01:21:05 because

01:21:06 why did these people do this?

01:21:09 this is the first thing I thought about when you said it

01:21:10 what people?

01:21:11 the people who came to him in the hara

01:21:13 was in the haram?

01:21:13 or sorry

01:21:14 the people who came up to him about the tattoos and this and that

01:21:16 why did they come up to you in the beginning?

01:21:18 this is a positive side that I heard first when he was describing it

01:21:21 is they have a good intention

01:21:22 of course their application is wrong

01:21:24 because you're talking

01:21:25 we're not talking about Islam now

01:21:26 we're talking about Muslims doing specific things

01:21:28 right

01:21:28 their application was wrong

01:21:29 but their intention was pure

01:21:31 I would believe

01:21:31 right

01:21:32 I would have good intention about it

01:21:33 because

01:21:33 what they wanted is

01:21:34 we have something in Islam

01:21:35 which makes this nation

01:21:37 the best nation

01:21:39 as the Quran says

01:21:39 Allah says

01:21:40 you were the best nation

01:21:43 to be brought up to the people

01:21:44 then Allah says

01:21:44 that you

01:21:47 enjoying the good and forbidding

01:21:49 but the issue is

01:21:50 so

01:21:50 I'm going to come to you

01:21:52 I know what you want to say

01:21:53 so I'm saying

01:21:54 where it's coming from

01:21:56 what differentiates

01:21:58 for example

01:21:58 some Muslims

01:21:59 of coming up to you

01:21:59 and telling you this

01:22:00 don't do this

01:22:01 and don't do that

01:22:01 but it ends up

01:22:03 in your situation

01:22:04 doing the opposite

01:22:04 the only issue with that

01:22:06 is like

01:22:07 you're absolutely right

01:22:09 by the way

01:22:09 I don't agree

01:22:10 but

01:22:11 about it being

01:22:12 Munkar in the first place 0.99

01:22:13 because

01:22:13 Munkar is something

01:22:15 this thing

01:22:16 everyone knows is bad

01:22:18 the mess

01:22:19 Munkar is evil

01:22:19 the issue of somebody

01:22:22 having tattoos

01:22:22 from previous life

01:22:23 now having to remove

01:22:25 those tattoos

01:22:26 okay

01:22:26 exactly

01:22:27 so

01:22:28 the point is

01:22:29 that this person

01:22:30 has now identified

01:22:31 something as evil

01:22:32 which the scholars

01:22:33 don't even think is evil

01:22:34 like that

01:22:34 they don't even have

01:22:35 the majority of scholars

01:22:36 don't even say

01:22:36 they have to remove

01:22:37 those things

01:22:37 that's one

01:22:38 that's why I'm saying

01:22:39 I'm saying

01:22:40 they ended up

01:22:41 doing the opposite

01:22:41 and their application

01:22:42 is wrong

01:22:42 so their intention

01:22:43 could be good

01:22:43 yeah

01:22:44 I'm saying

01:22:44 I'm highlighting

01:22:45 a very positive thing

01:22:46 that I think

01:22:46 differentiates Muslims

01:22:48 from a lot of other people

01:22:50 my point is

01:22:50 even if he had

01:22:51 good intentions

01:22:51 I was just there

01:22:53 in the maja

01:22:53 trying to read

01:22:54 the Quran

01:22:54 for a little bit

01:22:55 I was trying to

01:22:55 have some alone time

01:22:56 to read the Quran

01:22:57 and he felt like

01:22:57 because he had good

01:22:58 intentions

01:22:58 sit down

01:22:59 and start talking

01:23:00 and playing videos

01:23:01 I was distracted

01:23:02 I was just trying

01:23:02 to read for a little bit

01:23:03 some alone time

01:23:03 he ended up

01:23:04 doing the opposite

01:23:05 I think he's done

01:23:05 the wrong thing

01:23:06 I think the Munkar 0.94

01:23:08 was what he done

01:23:09 in my opinion

01:23:10 that's correct

01:23:10 because in order

01:23:12 for you to do

01:23:12 what we said

01:23:13 forbidding the evil

01:23:15 and enjoining the good

01:23:16 you need to know

01:23:16 the good and the evil first

01:23:17 not only that

01:23:18 but also the method

01:23:19 of how you convey

01:23:21 what is right and wrong

01:23:22 there are conditions

01:23:23 there are books

01:23:23 written on conditions

01:23:24 so we're agreeing

01:23:26 that what he did

01:23:27 is wrong

01:23:27 and also

01:23:28 there's an issue of

01:23:29 sorry to keep

01:23:30 cutting you off

01:23:30 but the issue of

01:23:32 letting cover

01:23:32 as well

01:23:33 because let's say

01:23:35 for example

01:23:35 let me give you

01:23:36 a crude example

01:23:36 there's a different

01:23:37 opinion among the scholars

01:23:38 as to whether

01:23:41 a woman should wear 1.00

01:23:41 a face covering

01:23:42 or not

01:23:42 okay so

01:23:44 some scholars say

01:23:45 she has to

01:23:45 as well

01:23:45 and a lot of scholars

01:23:48 I'm not going to say

01:23:48 majority of mine

01:23:48 but the three schools

01:23:50 of thought

01:23:50 most probably

01:23:51 that you find

01:23:52 these tattoos

01:23:52 in those

01:23:53 is that

01:23:53 she doesn't need

01:23:54 to do any such thing

01:23:55 right

01:23:55 like she can

01:23:56 show her face

01:23:56 yeah

01:23:58 say that again 0.67

01:23:59 you tell me

01:24:02 that

01:24:03 but the point

01:24:07 is

01:24:07 is that

01:24:07 okay

01:24:08 if a woman 0.96

01:24:08 sees another woman

01:24:09 without her face covered

01:24:10 and it's a very crude

01:24:13 example

01:24:13 but she comes to her

01:24:14 and says

01:24:14 what you're committing

01:24:15 is a sin

01:24:15 okay

01:24:17 she doesn't have

01:24:18 a right to do that

01:24:18 yeah

01:24:19 she doesn't have

01:24:19 the right to do that

01:24:20 because clearly

01:24:21 there's a difference

01:24:22 of opinion

01:24:22 and clearly

01:24:23 some scholars

01:24:24 said this

01:24:24 and this

01:24:25 and that

01:24:25 and leave her alone 1.00

01:24:26 effectively

01:24:27 and I would consider

01:24:28 that to be

01:24:28 a kind of harassment

01:24:29 if a woman does that 1.00

01:24:30 judge mentality

01:24:30 she can say

01:24:32 look

01:24:32 in my opinion

01:24:34 blah blah blah

01:24:35 and here are the evidence

01:24:36 and the woman 0.95

01:24:37 might not want to

01:24:38 entertain that

01:24:38 the one without

01:24:38 the face covering

01:24:40 she might say

01:24:40 we can talk about

01:24:41 this later

01:24:41 but I don't want to

01:24:42 but for her to

01:24:42 move it forward

01:24:43 to a next level

01:24:44 and say

01:24:44 well actually

01:24:45 this is evil

01:24:46 and what you're doing

01:24:47 you're accumulating

01:24:48 sin by doing this

01:24:49 it's not

01:24:50 ijma' 0.99

01:24:51 molten ijma' 0.98

01:24:52 that it's evil

01:24:53 it's not a consensus

01:24:55 true

01:24:55 that it's evil even

01:24:56 there's a difference

01:24:57 between among the scholars

01:24:58 so this kind of

01:24:59 judge mentality

01:25:00 that they're coming with

01:25:02 it can create

01:25:03 unnecessary division

01:25:04 it's repelling

01:25:05 yeah

01:25:06 it can create

01:25:07 yeah

01:25:08 it's like the professor

01:25:09 says you know

01:25:10 yassiru wa la tunafiru

01:25:11 he said

01:25:13 you repel people

01:25:15 from the religion

01:25:16 so I think

01:25:17 all of this is

01:25:18 if someone understands

01:25:19 the idea that

01:25:20 la in kafi

01:25:21 there is no

01:25:22 real blame

01:25:24 on issues of

01:25:25 difference of opinion

01:25:26 then when a river

01:25:28 comes in

01:25:28 and he hears

01:25:29 these differences

01:25:30 of opinion

01:25:30 this person saying

01:25:31 this is definitely

01:25:31 wrong

01:25:32 this person saying

01:25:32 maybe it's not

01:25:33 so long as these

01:25:34 come from the four 0.99

01:25:35 schools

01:25:35 and that they are

01:25:36 it's legitimate

01:25:38 difference of opinion

01:25:39 then the person

01:25:41 should know that

01:25:41 it's okay

01:25:42 for there to be a

01:25:43 difference

01:25:44 and if you follow

01:25:44 the easier opinion

01:25:45 frankly I would

01:25:46 say to the river

01:25:46 and this might

01:25:47 be controversial

01:25:48 I would say to him

01:25:49 follow the easier

01:25:50 one

01:25:50 follow the easier

01:25:52 there's two views

01:25:52 of the scholars

01:25:53 in this

01:25:53 like some of the

01:25:54 scholars view

01:25:54 that you take

01:25:55 the easier

01:25:55 some of the

01:25:56 scholars say

01:25:56 be cautious

01:25:57 these are the

01:25:57 views and they're

01:25:58 both accepted

01:25:58 this is the same

01:25:59 thing that we're

01:25:59 talking about now

01:26:00 for the river

01:26:02 I would say

01:26:02 follow the easier

01:26:03 one

01:26:03 yeah you can

01:26:03 I have a question

01:26:04 and both of you

01:26:05 touched upon

01:26:06 about Don

01:26:06 you've answered it

01:26:07 which is

01:26:08 where do these

01:26:09 issues come from

01:26:10 how can we have

01:26:11 large numbers

01:26:12 of our community

01:26:13 when they

01:26:14 deem something

01:26:14 to be negative

01:26:15 they quickly

01:26:16 interject

01:26:16 without checking

01:26:18 so once that

01:26:19 question is tackled

01:26:20 is it lack of

01:26:22 education

01:26:22 or is it

01:26:23 a particular

01:26:24 type of education

01:26:25 then we can

01:26:26 have a better

01:26:26 understanding

01:26:27 where they're

01:26:27 coming from

01:26:28 and their concerns

01:26:29 and their intention

01:26:30 etc etc

01:26:31 and then

01:26:31 I think we can

01:26:32 provide perhaps

01:26:33 or suggest

01:26:34 certain solutions

01:26:34 by the moment

01:26:35 I think that's

01:26:36 the question

01:26:36 it's coming from

01:26:38 this idea that

01:26:39 I have the

01:26:41 deli

01:26:42 you know

01:26:42 and therefore

01:26:43 my deli

01:26:44 must triumph

01:26:45 every other

01:26:45 what does deli mean?

01:26:46 deli means the evidence

01:26:47 so you find a lot of

01:26:49 people say

01:26:49 well if you have a

01:26:50 hadith

01:26:50 right

01:26:50 this hadith

01:26:51 is the

01:26:52 cutthroat evidence

01:26:53 that's it

01:26:54 it's as simple

01:26:55 as that

01:26:56 right

01:26:56 this is a

01:26:57 something which

01:26:58 came about

01:26:58 so if you

01:26:59 I'm following the

01:27:00 hadith

01:27:00 this person's

01:27:00 not following the

01:27:01 hadith

01:27:01 the problem

01:27:02 with that line

01:27:03 of thinking

01:27:03 is that

01:27:04 Ibn Taymiyat

01:27:05 wrote a whole

01:27:05 book about this

01:27:06 he's a

01:27:07 13th century

01:27:07 he wrote a whole

01:27:09 book and saying

01:27:09 you've got one

01:27:10 hadith

01:27:11 but two different

01:27:11 ways of interpreting

01:27:12 it

01:27:12 so these people

01:27:13 are interpreting

01:27:14 it in this way

01:27:14 these people

01:27:15 are interpreting

01:27:16 it in this way

01:27:16 there's one

01:27:17 hadith

01:27:17 but two

01:27:17 different ways

01:27:18 of interpreting

01:27:18 it

01:27:18 so don't try

01:27:19 and bully

01:27:20 someone with

01:27:20 your interpretation

01:27:21 of the hadith

01:27:21 you know

01:27:22 especially not a

01:27:23 reefer

01:27:23 someone who's

01:27:24 coming here

01:27:24 it doesn't matter

01:27:25 how strong

01:27:25 if David Goggins

01:27:26 became a Muslim

01:27:27 tomorrow 0.96

01:27:28 I would use

01:27:29 this approach

01:27:29 with him

01:27:30 because I don't

01:27:30 care how strong

01:27:31 he is when he's

01:27:32 running

01:27:32 Islam is a 1.00

01:27:33 different thing

01:27:33 do you have a

01:27:34 personal issue

01:27:35 with him

01:27:35 because he's so

01:27:38 tough

01:27:38 but I don't

01:27:39 care how tough

01:27:39 you are

01:27:40 you're a human

01:27:40 being

01:27:40 if you're going

01:27:41 to start a new

01:27:42 language

01:27:42 you learn a new

01:27:43 language

01:27:43 and we'll start

01:27:45 basics

01:27:45 nouns today

01:27:46 verbs tomorrow

01:27:47 it has to be like

01:27:49 that

01:27:49 because if you give

01:27:50 him all in one

01:27:50 go

01:27:51 he's going to

01:27:52 say I tried

01:27:52 and I failed

01:27:53 this makes you

01:27:55 think about a

01:27:55 subject that

01:27:56 brought a lot

01:27:57 of people to

01:27:57 Islam recently

01:27:58 we're talking

01:27:58 about why it's

01:27:59 the fastest growing

01:27:59 religion

01:28:00 it's probably

01:28:00 because of the

01:28:01 Israel-Palestine

01:28:02 conflict a lot

01:28:03 of people are

01:28:03 realizing the

01:28:04 truth about

01:28:04 Islam in the

01:28:05 past two years

01:28:06 or so

01:28:07 how honest

01:28:08 and how

01:28:08 how honest

01:28:10 and open

01:28:11 should we be

01:28:11 about the

01:28:12 Israel-Palestine

01:28:12 conflict

01:28:12 how much

01:28:13 should we

01:28:13 talk about

01:28:14 Zionism 0.99

01:28:14 because if

01:28:15 that's one

01:28:15 of the most

01:28:15 effective ways

01:28:16 to get people

01:28:16 to come to

01:28:17 Islam

01:28:17 how much

01:28:18 should we

01:28:19 balance that

01:28:19 with terms

01:28:19 of scaring

01:28:20 away new 0.92

01:28:21 Muslims

01:28:21 and also

01:28:21 avoiding

01:28:22 censorship

01:28:23 I think

01:28:23 I'll let you

01:28:25 maybe come

01:28:26 on this

01:28:26 if you want

01:28:26 but I think

01:28:27 we didn't

01:28:27 really answer

01:28:28 the question

01:28:28 that you

01:28:29 were making

01:28:29 before

01:28:30 because we

01:28:30 have more

01:28:31 of a

01:28:31 I would say

01:28:32 a higher level

01:28:32 disagreement

01:28:33 for the

01:28:33 audience

01:28:33 maybe

01:28:33 they were

01:28:34 lost

01:28:34 but the

01:28:35 question

01:28:35 that he

01:28:35 was asking

01:28:36 about the

01:28:37 new

01:28:37 Muslims

01:28:37 how should

01:28:38 they approach

01:28:39 Ramadan

01:28:39 I don't

01:28:39 think we

01:28:39 really give

01:28:40 an answer

01:28:41 to that

01:28:41 question

01:28:42 yes

01:28:42 so

01:28:42 the

01:28:43 Prophet

01:28:44 how did

01:28:45 he deal

01:28:45 with new

01:28:46 Muslims

01:28:46 is how we

01:28:46 deal with

01:28:47 new Muslims

01:28:47 because you

01:28:47 were talking

01:28:47 about what

01:28:48 method

01:28:48 do you

01:28:48 take

01:28:49 right

01:28:49 Prophet

01:28:49 what he

01:28:51 did

01:28:51 is he

01:28:52 sent

01:28:52 Muad

01:28:52 his

01:28:53 companion

01:28:53 to

01:28:53 Yemen

01:28:53 he said

01:28:54 to him

01:28:54 the first

01:28:55 thing

01:28:55 that you

01:28:55 call them

01:28:56 to is

01:28:56 Tawheed

01:28:57 which is

01:28:57 monotheism

01:28:58 i.e. teach

01:28:58 them about

01:28:59 the attributes

01:28:59 of Allah

01:29:00 teach them

01:29:00 about the

01:29:00 most important

01:29:01 things about

01:29:01 God

01:29:02 about these

01:29:02 things

01:29:02 right

01:29:02 probably the

01:29:03 best way

01:29:03 to connect

01:29:03 with people

01:29:04 is Tawheed

01:29:04 yeah absolutely

01:29:05 so focus

01:29:06 on that

01:29:06 first

01:29:06 that's the

01:29:07 first thing

01:29:07 then the

01:29:08 Prophet said

01:29:08 once they

01:29:09 agree with

01:29:10 you on

01:29:10 everything

01:29:10 there

01:29:11 they understood

01:29:11 they accepted

01:29:12 it

01:29:12 they learned

01:29:12 it

01:29:13 then teach

01:29:13 him about

01:29:13 the prayer

01:29:14 that Allah

01:29:15 have made

01:29:15 five obligative

01:29:16 prayers

01:29:16 okay how to

01:29:16 pray

01:29:17 this is how

01:29:17 we deal

01:29:18 with new

01:29:18 Muslims

01:29:18 we don't

01:29:19 overwhelm

01:29:19 them with

01:29:19 information

01:29:20 we don't

01:29:20 say to

01:29:20 do this

01:29:21 don't

01:29:21 do that

01:29:21 we say

01:29:21 okay look

01:29:22 this is

01:29:23 the

01:29:23 Tawheed

01:29:24 this is

01:29:24 monotheism

01:29:25 this is

01:29:25 how to

01:29:26 worship

01:29:26 Allah

01:29:26 this is

01:29:27 things to

01:29:27 avoid

01:29:27 this and

01:29:28 that

01:29:28 then okay

01:29:29 this is how

01:29:30 you learn

01:29:30 how to pray

01:29:30 read the Quran

01:29:31 and at the same

01:29:32 time learn how

01:29:32 to pray

01:29:32 that's it

01:29:33 because what

01:29:34 happens is

01:29:35 there's so many

01:29:36 ways of

01:29:37 overburdening

01:29:38 that happens

01:29:38 to the new 0.84

01:29:38 Muslims

01:29:38 one of them

01:29:40 is engaging

01:29:40 with different

01:29:41 Muslims

01:29:41 okay this guy

01:29:42 says this

01:29:42 guy

01:29:42 says this

01:29:42 guy

01:29:43 and then he

01:29:44 is completely

01:29:44 he's lost

01:29:45 another thing

01:29:46 is the overwhelming

01:29:47 sense of

01:29:48 information

01:29:48 it's a completely

01:29:49 new religion

01:29:49 to me

01:29:50 it's 360

01:29:50 degrees

01:29:51 I don't

01:29:51 know

01:29:51 what

01:29:52 is it

01:29:52 it's a lot

01:29:53 especially

01:29:55 as a public

01:29:56 figure like

01:29:57 Sneeko 0.75

01:29:57 now his

01:29:58 issue is

01:29:59 I'm guessing

01:29:59 and I've

01:30:00 seen someone

01:30:01 with myself

01:30:01 he comes

01:30:02 on a

01:30:02 stream

01:30:02 and all

01:30:03 these guys

01:30:03 are attacking

01:30:04 him

01:30:04 on oh

01:30:05 you this

01:30:05 and that

01:30:06 and the

01:30:06 tattoo

01:30:07 and the

01:30:07 music

01:30:07 and that

01:30:08 one

01:30:08 and the

01:30:09 armpit

01:30:09 hair

01:30:09 it's

01:30:10 haram

01:30:10 what

01:30:11 they're

01:30:12 doing

01:30:13 is haram

01:30:13 to him

01:30:14 he

01:30:14 actually

01:30:14 haram

01:30:15 you know

01:30:16 he mentioned

01:30:16 something

01:30:17 important

01:30:17 though

01:30:17 he said

01:30:18 and it's

01:30:18 true

01:30:19 is a lot

01:30:19 of the

01:30:20 people

01:30:20 who comment

01:30:20 are not

01:30:21 necessarily

01:30:21 muslims

01:30:21 a lot

01:30:23 of the

01:30:23 haram

01:30:24 and this

01:30:24 is a very

01:30:24 important thing

01:30:25 and I've

01:30:26 noticed it

01:30:26 on my own

01:30:27 streams

01:30:27 they come

01:30:28 secretly

01:30:28 trying to

01:30:28 send questions

01:30:29 as muslims 0.89

01:30:29 are posing

01:30:30 and then I

01:30:31 noticed how

01:30:31 they phrase

01:30:32 the questions

01:30:32 what they

01:30:32 say

01:30:33 you can

01:30:33 differentiate

01:30:33 between

01:30:33 muslim

01:30:34 and I'm

01:30:34 a muslim

01:30:35 so

01:30:35 when I made

01:30:37 the first

01:30:37 video reaction

01:30:38 to Sneeko

01:30:38 this was the

01:30:38 first point

01:30:39 I made

01:30:40 that was a

01:30:40 while ago

01:30:41 now

01:30:41 I don't know

01:30:41 how many

01:30:42 months

01:30:42 I said

01:30:42 to the

01:30:42 people

01:30:43 that

01:30:43 this is

01:30:43 a new

01:30:43 muslim

01:30:44 your approach

01:30:45 toward him

01:30:45 if you saw

01:30:46 that video

01:30:46 I don't know

01:30:46 I said

01:30:47 your approach

01:30:47 cannot be

01:30:48 the same

01:30:48 with someone

01:30:48 who's been

01:30:49 a muslim

01:30:49 his whole

01:30:49 life

01:30:50 it cannot

01:30:50 be just

01:30:50 following Sneeko

01:30:51 do this

01:30:51 don't do

01:30:52 this

01:30:52 don't do

01:30:53 that

01:30:53 so

01:30:53 I told

01:30:54 him

01:30:54 he should

01:30:54 be

01:30:54 supported

01:30:55 you can

01:30:56 see the

01:30:56 effort

01:30:58 he's

01:30:58 putting

01:30:58 to push

01:30:59 islam

01:30:59 forward

01:30:59 compare him

01:31:00 with other

01:31:00 people

01:31:01 they don't

01:31:02 do as

01:31:02 much

01:31:02 they don't

01:31:02 try doing

01:31:03 da'wah 0.97

01:31:03 spreading

01:31:04 videos

01:31:04 doing

01:31:04 these

01:31:04 things

01:31:05 so

01:31:05 these

01:31:06 are

01:31:06 true

01:31:07 things

01:31:08 that

01:31:08 he's

01:31:08 doing

01:31:08 and he

01:31:08 should

01:31:08 be

01:31:09 supported

01:31:09 for

01:31:09 them

01:31:09 so

01:31:10 yeah

01:31:10 the

01:31:10 new

01:31:10 muslims

01:31:10 have 0.56

01:31:11 to

01:31:11 take

01:31:11 things

01:31:11 up

01:31:12 absolutely

01:31:12 a step

01:31:12 by step

01:31:13 you

01:31:13 cannot

01:31:13 be

01:31:13 as

01:31:13 in

01:31:14 you

01:31:14 became

01:31:14 a muslim

01:31:15 two days

01:31:15 before

01:31:15 ramadan

01:31:15 and now

01:31:16 you start

01:31:16 going to

01:31:16 the quran

01:31:17 you're not

01:31:18 going to be

01:31:18 able to do

01:31:19 that

01:31:19 you're not

01:31:20 going to be

01:31:20 able to

01:31:20 do

01:31:20 that

01:31:20 so

01:31:21 yes

01:31:21 you take

01:31:21 things

01:31:22 gradually

01:31:22 step

01:31:22 by step

01:31:23 you fast

01:31:23 it's

01:31:23 the most

01:31:24 important

01:31:24 thing

01:31:24 you learn

01:31:25 about

01:31:25 important

01:31:26 things

01:31:26 how do

01:31:27 I fast

01:31:27 you read

01:31:28 the quran

01:31:28 and in

01:31:29 the meantime

01:31:29 you're

01:31:29 learning

01:31:30 how to

01:31:30 pray

01:31:30 as a

01:31:31 new

01:31:31 muslim

01:31:31 these

01:31:32 are

01:31:32 the

01:31:32 most

01:31:32 important

01:31:33 things

01:31:33 you learn

01:31:33 about

01:31:33 the

01:31:33 you know

01:31:34 worshipping

01:31:35 Allah

01:31:35 associating

01:31:36 partners

01:31:37 with

01:31:37 then

01:31:37 reading

01:31:38 the

01:31:38 quran 0.85

01:31:38 and

01:31:38 learning

01:31:38 how

01:31:39 to

01:31:39 pray

01:31:39 this

01:31:40 is

01:31:40 what

01:31:40 you should

01:31:40 focus on

01:31:40 as a

01:31:41 new

01:31:41 muslim

01:31:41 don't

01:31:42 over

01:31:42 and don't

01:31:43 be

01:31:44 asking

01:31:44 questions

01:31:44 to

01:31:44 100

01:31:45 different

01:31:45 people

01:31:46 look

01:31:46 for

01:31:46 someone

01:31:47 who

01:31:47 seems

01:31:47 to be

01:31:48 respected

01:31:48 in the

01:31:48 community

01:31:49 ask him

01:31:51 questions

01:31:51 and take

01:31:51 what he

01:31:52 says

01:31:52 to

01:31:52 you

01:31:52 I'm

01:31:53 very

01:31:53 blessed

01:31:53 to be

01:31:53 able

01:31:54 to

01:31:54 speak

01:31:54 to

01:31:54 so

01:31:54 many

01:31:54 people

01:31:55 that

01:31:55 are

01:31:55 knowledgeable

01:31:55 about

01:31:55 Islam

01:31:56 early

01:31:56 on

01:31:56 I've been

01:31:57 able to

01:31:57 skip

01:31:57 a lot

01:31:58 of

01:31:58 these

01:31:58 steps

01:31:58 and if

01:32:00 you do

01:32:01 let's say

01:32:01 for example

01:32:01 this is the

01:32:02 controversial part

01:32:03 I guess

01:32:03 let's say

01:32:04 you go to

01:32:04 person A

01:32:05 and you go to

01:32:06 person B

01:32:07 you ask

01:32:07 them the same

01:32:08 question

01:32:08 because you

01:32:09 don't know

01:32:09 what's going

01:32:10 on here

01:32:10 so you ask

01:32:10 them

01:32:10 but they're

01:32:11 two

01:32:11 respected

01:32:12 scholars

01:32:12 of the

01:32:12 community

01:32:13 now

01:32:14 the

01:32:14 he

01:32:20 wasn't

01:32:21 told

01:32:21 to

01:32:21 choose

01:32:22 between

01:32:22 two

01:32:22 things

01:32:22 except

01:32:23 that

01:32:23 he

01:32:23 chose 0.56

01:32:23 the

01:32:24 easier

01:32:24 of

01:32:24 them

01:32:24 now

01:32:25 as

01:32:25 he

01:32:25 mentioned

01:32:25 there's

01:32:26 different

01:32:26 scholarly

01:32:27 opinions

01:32:27 some

01:32:27 say

01:32:27 you have

01:32:27 to

01:32:28 choose

01:32:28 the

01:32:28 harder

01:32:28 opinion

01:32:28 because

01:32:29 of

01:32:29 I wouldn't

01:32:31 say

01:32:31 even

01:32:31 harder

01:32:31 I see

01:32:32 more

01:32:32 cautious

01:32:32 yeah

01:32:33 because

01:32:34 of

01:32:36 the

01:32:36 hadith

01:32:36 of

01:32:36 the

01:32:36 yeah

01:32:37 no

01:32:37 I

01:32:37 just

01:32:37 wanted

01:32:38 to

01:32:38 say

01:32:38 that

01:32:38 it's

01:32:39 not

01:32:39 really

01:32:39 to

01:32:39 look

01:32:39 at

01:32:40 it

01:32:40 from

01:32:40 hard

01:32:41 and

01:32:41 easy

01:32:41 point

01:32:41 of

01:32:42 view

01:32:42 yeah

01:32:44 like

01:32:44 this

01:32:45 okay

01:32:46 this

01:32:47 is a

01:32:47 hadith

01:32:47 of

01:32:47 the

01:32:47 prophet

01:32:47 this

01:32:50 hadith

01:32:50 of

01:32:50 the

01:32:50 prophet

01:32:50 he

01:32:51 said

01:32:51 if

01:32:51 you

01:32:51 avoid

01:32:52 these

01:32:52 gray

01:32:52 areas

01:32:53 then

01:32:53 you're

01:32:53 safe

01:32:53 so

01:32:54 there's

01:32:54 no doubt

01:32:55 that

01:32:55 the

01:32:55 person

01:32:55 who

01:32:55 takes

01:32:56 the

01:32:56 safest

01:32:56 opinion

01:32:56 is

01:32:57 safer

01:32:57 than

01:32:57 the

01:32:57 other

01:32:57 person

01:32:58 who

01:32:58 takes

01:32:58 the

01:32:59 new

01:33:00 person

01:33:00 to

01:33:01 the

01:33:01 religion

01:33:01 then

01:33:02 the

01:33:02 safety

01:33:02 is

01:33:03 more

01:33:04 because

01:33:04 this

01:33:05 person

01:33:05 now

01:33:05 he

01:33:06 might

01:33:06 overwhelm

01:33:06 himself

01:33:07 also

01:33:07 a

01:33:07 question

01:33:08 with

01:33:08 regards

01:33:08 to

01:33:08 safety

01:33:09 so

01:33:15 there's

01:33:16 no

01:33:16 safety

01:33:16 in that

01:33:16 sense

01:33:16 for

01:33:17 him

01:33:17 he's

01:33:17 done

01:33:17 his

01:33:18 due

01:33:18 diligence

01:33:18 which

01:33:19 he

01:33:19 asked

01:33:19 and

01:33:20 he

01:33:20 goes

01:33:21 with

01:33:21 them

01:33:21 so

01:33:21 there's

01:33:21 no

01:33:22 safety

01:33:22 from

01:33:22 that

01:33:22 safety

01:33:23 is

01:33:23 only

01:33:23 from

01:33:23 the

01:33:24 person

01:33:27 who

01:33:27 look at

01:33:27 different

01:33:27 opinions

01:33:28 that's

01:33:28 what

01:33:28 I was

01:33:29 saying

01:33:29 as

01:33:29 a

01:33:29 new

01:33:29 Muslim 0.94

01:33:30 shouldn't 0.99

01:33:30 be

01:33:30 engaging

01:33:31 with

01:33:31 different

01:33:31 you

01:33:31 just

01:33:32 end

01:33:32 up

01:33:32 confusing

01:33:32 yourself

01:33:33 so

01:33:33 you

01:33:33 should

01:33:33 be

01:33:34 focusing

01:33:34 on

01:33:34 one

01:33:34 person

01:33:34 what

01:33:35 is

01:33:35 this

01:33:35 you

01:33:35 doing

01:33:35 in

01:33:35 the

01:33:36 beginning

01:33:36 once

01:33:36 you

01:33:36 increase

01:33:36 and

01:33:37 learn

01:33:37 you

01:33:37 can

01:33:37 look

01:33:38 at

01:33:38 the

01:33:38 difference

01:33:38 this

01:33:41 is my

01:33:41 personal

01:33:41 advice

01:33:42 to him

01:33:42 if

01:33:44 you

01:33:44 go to

01:33:44 two

01:33:45 or

01:33:45 three

01:33:45 different

01:33:45 people

01:33:45 and

01:33:46 you're

01:33:46 new

01:33:46 to

01:33:47 religion

01:33:47 even

01:33:47 if

01:33:47 you're

01:33:47 new

01:33:47 to

01:33:48 practicing

01:33:48 forget

01:33:49 about

01:33:49 new

01:33:49 to

01:33:49 it

01:33:49 my

01:33:50 view

01:33:50 is

01:33:50 that

01:33:51 so

01:33:51 long

01:33:52 as

01:33:52 there's

01:33:52 two

01:33:52 legitimate

01:33:53 views

01:33:53 in

01:33:53 Islam

01:33:53 legitimate

01:33:54 they're

01:33:55 not

01:33:55 talking

01:33:55 about

01:33:55 the

01:33:56 very

01:33:57 important

01:33:58 point

01:33:58 yeah

01:33:58 two

01:33:59 legitimate

01:33:59 views

01:33:59 which

01:34:00 the

01:34:01 scholars

01:34:01 have

01:34:01 spoken

01:34:02 about

01:34:02 for

01:34:02 hundreds

01:34:03 of

01:34:03 years

01:34:03 and so

01:34:04 on

01:34:04 you

01:34:05 choose

01:34:05 the

01:34:06 easier

01:34:06 one

01:34:06 no

01:34:06 problem

01:34:06 why

01:34:07 because

01:34:07 right

01:34:08 now

01:34:08 we don't

01:34:09 want to

01:34:09 overburden

01:34:09 you

01:34:10 right now

01:34:11 Islam

01:34:11 is not

01:34:11 religion

01:34:11 and there

01:34:12 is precedent

01:34:12 for that

01:34:13 and there

01:34:13 is hadith

01:34:14 about that

01:34:14 and this

01:34:15 is something

01:34:15 the scholars

01:34:16 have spoken

01:34:16 about

01:34:16 so

01:34:17 yes

01:34:18 you shouldn't

01:34:18 be listening

01:34:19 to too

01:34:19 many people

01:34:20 in one

01:34:20 sense

01:34:20 choose one

01:34:21 or two

01:34:21 guys

01:34:21 that you

01:34:22 trust

01:34:22 them

01:34:22 with their

01:34:23 Islamic

01:34:24 knowledge

01:34:24 and if

01:34:25 you feel

01:34:25 like this

01:34:26 person

01:34:26 is saying

01:34:26 something

01:34:27 very

01:34:27 difficult

01:34:31 your opinion

01:34:32 for now

01:34:32 until you

01:34:34 establish

01:34:34 yourself

01:34:35 in a

01:34:35 stronger

01:34:35 position

01:34:36 and then

01:34:36 which case

01:34:37 you can

01:34:37 be more

01:34:37 harsh

01:34:37 on yourself

01:34:38 but you've

01:34:39 got to

01:34:39 build up

01:34:40 I think

01:34:40 that once

01:34:41 again

01:34:41 this idea

01:34:42 of overburdening

01:34:43 because I've

01:34:43 seen it

01:34:43 and it's

01:34:44 very dangerous

01:34:44 especially

01:34:45 in my

01:34:45 opinion

01:34:45 with I

01:34:46 would call

01:34:46 them high

01:34:47 profile people

01:34:47 because if

01:34:48 someone like

01:34:49 with all

01:34:49 due respect

01:34:50 Sneeko 0.75

01:34:51 leaves Islam 1.00

01:34:52 it's more

01:34:52 harmful than

01:34:53 the average

01:34:53 person

01:34:54 leaving Islam 1.00

01:34:54 if that

01:34:55 makes sense

01:34:56 because he's

01:34:56 got people

01:34:57 following him

01:34:57 now

01:34:57 and so

01:34:58 the threat

01:35:00 of him

01:35:00 finding it

01:35:01 overburdened

01:35:01 overburdening

01:35:03 is more

01:35:04 for me

01:35:06 a priority

01:35:07 than somebody

01:35:08 else

01:35:08 I would even

01:35:08 be more

01:35:09 and that's

01:35:10 why same

01:35:10 thing with

01:35:10 Andrew Tate

01:35:11 people are

01:35:12 quite harsh

01:35:12 on him

01:35:13 and stuff

01:35:13 like that

01:35:13 he's living

01:35:14 in Romania

01:35:14 he doesn't

01:35:15 have an

01:35:15 Islamic

01:35:15 group around

01:35:16 him

01:35:16 telling him

01:35:17 this

01:35:17 Miami

01:35:17 there's no

01:35:18 Muslims

01:35:18 at all

01:35:19 so we've

01:35:20 got to

01:35:21 really be

01:35:21 cautious

01:35:22 with people

01:35:22 like this

01:35:23 I don't

01:35:23 think it's

01:35:24 overburdening

01:35:24 I'm not

01:35:24 trying to

01:35:25 victimize

01:35:25 it

01:35:26 I find

01:35:26 some of

01:35:27 it annoying

01:35:28 because I

01:35:28 am the

01:35:29 center of

01:35:29 a lot

01:35:29 of those

01:35:30 and I

01:35:30 think about

01:35:31 how a

01:35:32 new Muslim

01:35:32 or somebody

01:35:32 who's interested

01:35:33 or somebody

01:35:33 watching right

01:35:34 now who's

01:35:35 looking into

01:35:35 Islam and

01:35:36 how they

01:35:36 could be

01:35:36 pushed away

01:35:37 but it's

01:35:37 not just

01:35:37 you

01:35:37 even if

01:35:38 it's not

01:35:39 just

01:35:39 I'm saying

01:35:39 that the

01:35:39 general

01:35:40 methodology

01:35:41 with somebody

01:35:42 who's new

01:35:43 to practicing

01:35:43 or new

01:35:44 to Islam

01:35:45 should be

01:35:46 really

01:35:46 leniency

01:35:47 and a slow

01:35:49 and a gradualist

01:35:50 approach

01:35:50 a real

01:35:52 gradual

01:35:52 incremental

01:35:53 approach

01:35:53 it's like

01:35:54 anything in

01:35:55 the world

01:35:55 so would

01:35:56 you say

01:35:56 that the

01:35:57 shaitan

01:35:57 uses these

01:35:58 people

01:35:59 to

01:36:00 overburden

01:36:01 these

01:36:01 rebirths

01:36:02 to repel

01:36:03 them

01:36:03 thinking that

01:36:04 they're doing

01:36:04 good

01:36:04 yeah

01:36:05 he does

01:36:06 could do

01:36:06 bro

01:36:06 could do

01:36:07 like

01:36:07 you've got to

01:36:08 really think

01:36:09 twice

01:36:09 do I need to

01:36:10 say this

01:36:11 to this person

01:36:11 at this time

01:36:12 is this going to

01:36:13 help him

01:36:14 in his Islam

01:36:15 or is this going to

01:36:16 help me

01:36:16 think I'm

01:36:17 because let's be

01:36:17 honest

01:36:18 it's true that

01:36:18 some people have

01:36:19 good intentions

01:36:19 but let's be

01:36:20 honest some of

01:36:20 them have

01:36:21 actually bad

01:36:22 intentions

01:36:22 that they have

01:36:24 a holier than

01:36:25 thou attitude

01:36:26 and they want to

01:36:27 judge someone

01:36:28 so they'll find

01:36:29 the river

01:36:30 or they'll find 0.98

01:36:31 the new Muslim 0.64

01:36:31 or the newly

01:36:32 practicing person

01:36:32 so they can

01:36:33 practice their

01:36:34 judgmental skills

01:36:35 so they can feel

01:36:35 better about

01:36:36 their lowly

01:36:36 lives

01:36:37 no but it's

01:36:38 true

01:36:38 but good intentions

01:36:39 are not sufficient

01:36:39 when it comes to

01:36:41 the actions

01:36:41 yes yes

01:36:42 so the application

01:36:43 has to be correct

01:36:44 as well

01:36:44 yes

01:36:44 yeah that's true

01:36:45 so leniency

01:36:48 is absolutely

01:36:48 needs to be there

01:36:49 the gradualism

01:36:50 of dealing

01:36:51 with the new

01:36:51 that's why

01:36:51 when we're

01:36:52 talking about

01:36:53 like this is

01:36:54 more of a

01:36:55 that's why

01:36:55 we're saying

01:36:55 it's a high level

01:36:56 discussion

01:36:56 for the people

01:36:56 actually right

01:36:57 I don't want

01:36:58 them to get 0.86

01:36:58 confused

01:36:58 like for example

01:36:59 when me for

01:37:00 example referring

01:37:01 to a general

01:37:03 ruling and then

01:37:04 now talking about

01:37:05 specific things to

01:37:06 do with the

01:37:06 rivers their

01:37:06 application with

01:37:07 them

01:37:07 also the people

01:37:08 watching need to

01:37:09 be careful

01:37:09 like the two

01:37:10 opinions of

01:37:11 taking the

01:37:11 opinion which

01:37:12 is more lenient

01:37:13 versus the 0.55

01:37:13 opinion which

01:37:14 is more cautious

01:37:14 it's not the

01:37:15 same with someone

01:37:16 who's always been

01:37:16 Muslim born

01:37:17 Muslim

01:37:17 with someone 0.88

01:37:17 who's a river

01:37:18 so these

01:37:18 differentiations also

01:37:20 have to be made

01:37:20 and sadly like

01:37:21 I get people who

01:37:23 DM me for example

01:37:23 say brother

01:37:24 like do you need

01:37:25 help with the new

01:37:25 Muslims

01:37:26 I never respond 0.96

01:37:26 to these people

01:37:27 because I don't

01:37:27 know you

01:37:28 I don't know

01:37:29 whether you'll be

01:37:29 able to deal

01:37:30 with them correctly

01:37:30 whether you teach

01:37:31 them right

01:37:31 you have gradualism

01:37:32 with them

01:37:32 you've got a good

01:37:33 intention talking

01:37:34 about the good

01:37:34 intention there

01:37:35 do you want to

01:37:35 help do you want

01:37:36 to support

01:37:36 right

01:37:36 but if I bring

01:37:37 him he ends

01:37:38 up doing the

01:37:38 opposite like

01:37:39 okay the work

01:37:40 that you've done

01:37:40 of like bringing

01:37:41 someone closer to

01:37:42 Islam he's going 1.00

01:37:42 to do the opposite

01:37:43 now pushing

01:37:43 them away right

01:37:44 so you have to be

01:37:45 very careful with

01:37:46 the people that

01:37:46 are dealing with

01:37:47 the new Muslims 1.00

01:37:48 and how they deal

01:37:49 with them right

01:37:49 so it's very

01:37:50 difficult

01:37:50 I have a story

01:37:51 when one guy

01:37:52 became Muslim

01:37:52 the Speaker's Corner

01:37:53 right

01:37:53 and

01:37:54 you took a Shahada

01:37:55 in the park

01:37:56 Shahada in the park

01:37:56 and I took him

01:37:57 to the coffee shop

01:37:59 afterwards

01:37:59 and I said

01:38:00 I had to go to

01:38:01 my mum to do

01:38:02 some errand for her

01:38:03 so I got this guy

01:38:04 he was also

01:38:05 and this was a big

01:38:06 mistake

01:38:06 because he was part

01:38:07 of like

01:38:07 I'm not going to

01:38:07 mention the sect

01:38:08 but a group of

01:38:09 Islam that deals 1.00

01:38:10 with politics

01:38:10 let's say

01:38:10 yeah

01:38:11 okay

01:38:11 so I said

01:38:11 to him

01:38:12 please brother

01:38:12 just do me a favor

01:38:13 just teach him

01:38:13 how to do

01:38:14 sort of fatah

01:38:15 because he's now

01:38:16 at a stage

01:38:16 where you can

01:38:17 teach him

01:38:17 how to pray

01:38:18 I went

01:38:19 and I came back

01:38:19 and he was

01:38:20 talking about

01:38:20 the rulers

01:38:20 and he was

01:38:21 talking about

01:38:21 this one

01:38:23 and we have

01:38:24 to overthrow

01:38:24 that one

01:38:25 do you know

01:38:27 what I mean

01:38:27 it's just like

01:38:28 you know

01:38:28 I want to talk

01:38:29 about this

01:38:29 because it's

01:38:29 a good point

01:38:31 to talk about

01:38:31 but I don't

01:38:32 forget your

01:38:32 question as well

01:38:32 about Palestine

01:38:33 which we should

01:38:33 come back to

01:38:34 as well

01:38:34 so the idea

01:38:36 of this idea

01:38:36 of talking

01:38:37 about the rulers

01:38:37 not talking

01:38:38 negatively or positively

01:38:39 now I think

01:38:41 Muslims need 1.00

01:38:42 to understand

01:38:43 that the people

01:38:44 that have

01:38:44 social media

01:38:45 platforms

01:38:45 like myself

01:38:46 or you

01:38:47 or individuals

01:38:47 who have

01:38:48 like an influence

01:38:48 on the social

01:38:49 public

01:38:49 right

01:38:50 are we really

01:38:51 making an effect

01:38:52 on the ground

01:38:52 talking negatively

01:38:53 or positively

01:38:53 on something

01:38:54 happening in a

01:38:55 complete different

01:38:55 land that we're

01:38:56 not even there

01:38:56 you know

01:38:57 whatever you say

01:38:58 okay this person

01:38:59 is good

01:38:59 this person

01:39:00 is bad

01:39:00 he's doing

01:39:00 this today

01:39:01 he's doing

01:39:01 this in the

01:39:01 mornings

01:39:02 the question

01:39:02 is what is

01:39:03 the positive

01:39:03 effect that you're

01:39:04 making right

01:39:05 as a Muslim

01:39:05 staying in the UK

01:39:06 telling this new

01:39:07 Muslim you know

01:39:07 what the people

01:39:08 in this country

01:39:09 are bad

01:39:09 he doesn't know

01:39:11 the name of the

01:39:11 reader

01:39:11 he doesn't know

01:39:12 what these people

01:39:12 are doing

01:39:14 I think as Muslims

01:39:15 we should concern

01:39:16 ourselves with

01:39:16 things which are

01:39:17 more like important

01:39:18 yes

01:39:19 as Muslims

01:39:20 be keen on

01:39:23 that which

01:39:24 benefits you

01:39:24 this has to be

01:39:25 the state of the

01:39:25 Muslims

01:39:26 not just talking

01:39:26 about this

01:39:27 person did

01:39:27 and Allah

01:39:28 in the hadith

01:39:29 he hated for

01:39:30 us multiple

01:39:30 things

01:39:31 one of them

01:39:31 is

01:39:31 this person

01:39:32 said

01:39:32 this person

01:39:33 said

01:39:33 that person

01:39:33 said

01:39:33 this is not

01:39:34 the behavior 0.77

01:39:35 that a Muslim 0.94

01:39:35 should be

01:39:36 should be

01:39:36 taking

01:39:36 and sadly

01:39:37 there are

01:39:38 people on

01:39:38 social media

01:39:39 sadly that have

01:39:40 a lot of

01:39:40 viewings

01:39:41 they might be

01:39:42 talking about

01:39:43 like for example

01:39:43 this person

01:39:44 that person

01:39:44 this country

01:39:45 this person

01:39:46 that this

01:39:46 this person

01:39:46 did that

01:39:47 today

01:39:47 this person

01:39:48 is doing

01:39:48 this country

01:39:48 is doing

01:39:49 that

01:39:49 okay

01:39:49 are you

01:39:50 making a good

01:39:51 effect in the end

01:39:52 are you affecting

01:39:53 change

01:39:53 let's talk about it

01:39:54 and honestly

01:39:55 I want to say this

01:39:56 I want to hear

01:39:57 your opinion

01:39:57 I think a lot

01:39:59 of the people

01:39:59 that talk about

01:40:01 these issues

01:40:01 it is more

01:40:03 for themselves

01:40:03 I'll tell you why

01:40:05 because this is what

01:40:05 the people want to hear

01:40:06 if I talk about

01:40:08 this is what the majority

01:40:08 of the people love

01:40:09 people want to hear me

01:40:11 saying you know

01:40:11 I'm speaking

01:40:11 this government

01:40:13 this this and that

01:40:14 this country

01:40:14 this and this and that

01:40:15 I'm speaking about them

01:40:17 people end up

01:40:18 praising me

01:40:19 saying look at this

01:40:19 this is the only real person

01:40:21 look at all of the other

01:40:21 fake people

01:40:22 they're not day and night

01:40:23 talking about this person

01:40:24 or that person

01:40:25 or this person

01:40:25 I think

01:40:26 we should all be keen

01:40:27 on that which benefits us

01:40:28 learning about the Quran

01:40:29 learning about the prophetic tradition

01:40:31 learning about these

01:40:32 these things

01:40:32 yes

01:40:33 there is a level of understanding

01:40:34 what is going on

01:40:35 but to be day and night

01:40:36 talking about this specific person

01:40:38 is doing this

01:40:38 specific person

01:40:39 is doing that

01:40:40 is this really affecting

01:40:41 a good change

01:40:42 and using for example

01:40:44 the hadith of the Prophet

01:40:45 that we were just talking about

01:40:47 forbidding the good

01:40:48 and you know

01:40:48 forbidding the evil

01:40:50 and enjoying the good

01:40:51 are you really forbidding

01:40:53 are you talking

01:40:53 the king of this country

01:40:55 is watching your Twitter account

01:40:57 you know

01:40:57 and he's now

01:40:58 you're forbidding the evil

01:40:59 he's reading it

01:40:59 and he's learning

01:41:00 and he's following

01:41:00 what you're doing

01:41:01 or is it the people

01:41:02 that are watching you

01:41:03 or listening to you

01:41:04 that are the ones

01:41:04 that are getting this

01:41:05 you know

01:41:06 oh he's doing

01:41:07 he's saying

01:41:07 and then they're praising you

01:41:08 right

01:41:08 so I think that's

01:41:09 it's an issue

01:41:09 that we have

01:41:10 and sadly

01:41:10 when I say this as well

01:41:11 and I want your input

01:41:13 in this

01:41:13 because I know

01:41:14 you want to say something

01:41:15 I'm sorry

01:41:15 that there are

01:41:17 a sense now

01:41:18 of pushing people

01:41:19 away from the scholars

01:41:19 I think this is an issue

01:41:20 that we have to take

01:41:21 the people have developed

01:41:23 have developed

01:41:24 a detachment

01:41:25 from the scholars

01:41:26 due to the

01:41:27 many of these individuals

01:41:28 talking about countries

01:41:29 and they started now

01:41:30 saying okay

01:41:30 these scholars

01:41:31 look

01:41:31 our person that we follow

01:41:32 speaks the haq 0.83

01:41:33 these ulama

01:41:34 do not speak the truth

01:41:35 therefore now

01:41:36 you are creating

01:41:37 first hatred

01:41:38 from the layman

01:41:39 towards the scholar

01:41:40 number two

01:41:41 detaching the lay public

01:41:43 from the scholars

01:41:43 now what end up

01:41:44 being the source of knowledge

01:41:46 for the people

01:41:46 is that person on YouTube

01:41:47 or me doing research

01:41:48 on Google

01:41:49 or the video that I've seen

01:41:50 on YouTube

01:41:51 and I think that's a very

01:41:52 dangerous thing

01:41:52 the connection

01:41:54 between the ulama

01:41:55 and the lay people

01:41:56 this is one of the most

01:41:57 important foundations

01:41:58 that we have

01:41:59 yeah of course

01:42:00 I totally agree

01:42:02 with everything

01:42:02 you just said there

01:42:03 I mean

01:42:03 we just have to define

01:42:05 who the scholars are

01:42:05 because

01:42:06 sometimes as a new Muslim

01:42:08 let's say

01:42:09 we're a newly

01:42:10 practising Muslim

01:42:11 you'll be told

01:42:11 that the scholars

01:42:12 are only the people

01:42:13 in this country

01:42:13 or this place

01:42:14 oh yeah

01:42:14 that's another problem

01:42:15 yeah

01:42:15 so long as we understand

01:42:16 that the scholars

01:42:17 are in Morocco

01:42:18 they're in Pakistan

01:42:19 they're in India

01:42:20 they're in all of the

01:42:21 Muslim world

01:42:21 there are scholars

01:42:22 everywhere

01:42:22 and that their opinions

01:42:24 are not more

01:42:25 say equally weighted

01:42:26 but these people here

01:42:28 have good opinions

01:42:29 these people here

01:42:30 have this

01:42:30 and so long as we understand

01:42:32 that there's scholars

01:42:32 everywhere

01:42:33 and it's not just

01:42:34 in one place

01:42:35 or one bubble

01:42:35 or you have to follow

01:42:36 this particular one

01:42:37 then what you've said

01:42:37 is absolutely

01:42:38 I agree with it

01:42:38 you know what you're saying

01:42:39 this is the other side

01:42:41 of the coin now

01:42:41 we're both understanding

01:42:42 what we're referring to here

01:42:43 but there's another side

01:42:44 of the coin

01:42:45 which is what you're referring to

01:42:46 is like thinking

01:42:46 you know what

01:42:47 the scholars are

01:42:48 legislators with Allah

01:42:50 in a sense

01:42:50 and not only all the scholars

01:42:52 but the group of the scholars

01:42:53 that I like

01:42:53 these are the only scholars

01:42:55 out there

01:42:55 these are the scholars

01:42:56 that can say

01:42:57 what is permissible

01:42:57 and impermissible

01:42:58 and anyone else

01:42:59 is not a scholar

01:43:00 because they didn't say

01:43:01 he's a scholar yet

01:43:01 so you're of one

01:43:02 they would say

01:43:03 you're of one of two positions

01:43:04 either you're unknown

01:43:05 because our scholars

01:43:06 have not spoken about you yet

01:43:07 and cannot take knowledge

01:43:08 from you

01:43:09 or you're not good

01:43:10 because our scholars

01:43:11 have said bad about you

01:43:12 right

01:43:12 so they have this group

01:43:14 of people that

01:43:14 sadly

01:43:15 it reaches a level of

01:43:16 you can say

01:43:17 ultimate obedience

01:43:18 comparing them with

01:43:18 the rubban

01:43:19 what they do

01:43:20 you know

01:43:20 Allah said about

01:43:21 the yahud

01:43:22 there's a very

01:43:23 strong comparison there

01:43:24 so yes

01:43:24 the scholars

01:43:25 the ulama

01:43:25 and I'll tell you

01:43:26 something

01:43:26 many of these

01:43:27 individuals

01:43:27 I spoke to

01:43:28 you know

01:43:28 I said to them

01:43:29 one thing

01:43:29 one question

01:43:30 I said

01:43:31 name scholars

01:43:32 outside of that country

01:43:33 name them

01:43:35 they couldn't

01:43:35 and the person

01:43:37 then started thinking

01:43:37 and telling me

01:43:38 that's right

01:43:38 why are the only scholars

01:43:40 I know

01:43:40 are in this specific

01:43:41 country

01:43:42 this specific region

01:43:42 or the publicly

01:43:44 always mentioned

01:43:45 type of scholars

01:43:45 that you hear

01:43:46 people talking about

01:43:47 so that's another

01:43:47 sad reality

01:43:48 that yes

01:43:49 as a Muslim

01:43:50 you have to be

01:43:50 in the middle

01:43:50 I think these

01:43:51 are important

01:43:52 issues to clarify

01:43:53 because sadly

01:43:53 they have a major

01:43:54 effect on themselves

01:43:54 I have to go to the bathroom

01:43:55 or something

01:43:56 yeah that's great

01:43:56 you wanted to add a

01:43:57 point

01:43:58 yeah you wanted to say

01:43:59 something

01:43:59 sorry

01:43:59 yeah

01:44:00 I have another

01:44:01 angle which is

01:44:03 we are

01:44:03 products about

01:44:04 environment

01:44:05 so it's

01:44:06 and most human beings

01:44:07 and that

01:44:08 does not exclude

01:44:09 the diet

01:44:10 we are vehicles

01:44:11 for other people's

01:44:12 thoughts

01:44:12 and we add

01:44:14 to the fact

01:44:15 that we are

01:44:15 products about

01:44:16 environments

01:44:16 most people

01:44:17 they speak

01:44:17 about that

01:44:18 which concerns

01:44:20 them

01:44:20 and they see

01:44:21 that as

01:44:21 the number

01:44:22 one priority

01:44:22 so it's not

01:44:23 necessarily

01:44:24 that they want

01:44:25 the attention

01:44:26 or the credit

01:44:26 from

01:44:27 most of us

01:44:29 live in

01:44:30 echo chamber

01:44:30 and that's

01:44:31 the problem

01:44:31 and therefore

01:44:32 it's really hard

01:44:33 for us

01:44:33 to actually

01:44:34 assess

01:44:35 what is

01:44:36 priority

01:44:36 everybody agree

01:44:37 with you

01:44:38 we need to

01:44:38 speak about

01:44:41 that which

01:44:42 benefits us

01:44:42 everybody

01:44:43 will say

01:44:43 it's a

01:44:44 consensus

01:44:44 but the reality

01:44:45 is then

01:44:46 what is

01:44:47 priority

01:44:47 and this

01:44:48 individual

01:44:48 has

01:44:49 in particular

01:44:50 share

01:44:50 or

01:44:51 another

01:44:51 person

01:44:53 has this

01:44:53 and this

01:44:54 seems to be

01:44:55 the

01:44:57 price

01:44:57 of each

01:44:58 individual

01:44:59 sadly speaking

01:45:01 vehicles

01:45:03 for other

01:45:04 people's

01:45:04 thoughts

01:45:04 there's very

01:45:05 little

01:45:05 critical

01:45:06 thinking

01:45:06 there's very

01:45:07 little

01:45:07 engaging

01:45:08 with opposition

01:45:09 everyone

01:45:10 is subject

01:45:10 to their

01:45:10 own

01:45:11 echo

01:45:11 chamber

01:45:11 they get

01:45:12 themselves

01:45:13 a seat

01:45:13 and it's

01:45:14 a rinse

01:45:14 and repeat

01:45:15 that person

01:45:15 that generation 0.76

01:45:16 dies off

01:45:16 and each

01:45:17 generation

01:45:17 is raised

01:45:18 with the

01:45:18 same

01:45:19 problems

01:45:19 it's true

01:45:20 it's true

01:45:20 that most

01:45:21 people

01:45:22 or everyone

01:45:22 is thinking

01:45:23 that their

01:45:23 issue is the

01:45:25 most important

01:45:25 right

01:45:25 my issue is

01:45:26 the most

01:45:26 important

01:45:27 that's why

01:45:27 when I say

01:45:27 speak about

01:45:28 that which

01:45:28 benefits you

01:45:28 you're probably

01:45:29 thinking that

01:45:29 other thing

01:45:30 complete other

01:45:31 thing in their

01:45:31 mind about

01:45:31 that which

01:45:32 benefits you

01:45:32 but our

01:45:33 priorities

01:45:34 this is the

01:45:34 thing

01:45:34 has to be

01:45:35 based on the

01:45:36 text

01:45:36 has to be

01:45:37 based on the

01:45:38 text

01:45:38 because it's

01:45:38 not

01:45:38 it has to be

01:45:39 based on the

01:45:40 text and

01:45:40 based on the

01:45:41 individual and

01:45:41 based on the

01:45:42 location

01:45:42 so sometimes

01:45:44 you know when

01:45:44 I've been doing

01:45:45 these streams

01:45:45 for non-muslims

01:45:45 they're coming

01:45:47 in the backstage

01:45:48 here they're

01:45:48 trying to jump

01:45:49 in the stream

01:45:50 and then I

01:45:50 try to explain

01:45:51 to them

01:45:51 okay now

01:45:51 there's a

01:45:52 priority

01:45:52 priority of

01:45:53 someone who's

01:45:54 not a muslim 1.00

01:45:54 at all

01:45:55 right

01:45:55 he is more

01:45:56 priority

01:45:56 because if

01:45:57 that person

01:45:57 dies

01:45:58 his afterlife

01:45:59 is gone

01:46:00 okay you're a

01:46:00 muslim you have 0.91

01:46:01 an issue

01:46:01 no matter how

01:46:02 big that issue

01:46:02 you're going to

01:46:03 make it

01:46:03 still you're

01:46:03 still a muslim

01:46:04 right

01:46:04 you're not the

01:46:06 priority in this

01:46:07 situation

01:46:07 so be patient

01:46:08 a little bit

01:46:09 right

01:46:09 so it's true

01:46:10 the issue

01:46:11 of what is

01:46:12 the priority

01:46:12 but honestly

01:46:13 the issue

01:46:14 that I was

01:46:14 talking about

01:46:15 to do with

01:46:15 like speaking

01:46:15 about countries

01:46:16 and this and

01:46:16 that sadly

01:46:17 and unfortunately

01:46:18 and sadly

01:46:19 the people who

01:46:20 speak I don't

01:46:21 think these

01:46:22 people believe

01:46:22 this is the

01:46:23 priority

01:46:23 because they

01:46:24 know they're

01:46:24 not influencing

01:46:25 change for

01:46:25 example right

01:46:26 the other side

01:46:27 probably yes

01:46:28 they do believe

01:46:28 that right

01:46:29 so that's why

01:46:29 they will use

01:46:30 islamic text

01:46:31 evidences

01:46:31 but they're

01:46:32 the way they

01:46:34 apply these

01:46:34 things are wrong

01:46:35 and that's why

01:46:35 you know people

01:46:36 ask me all the

01:46:36 time who are

01:46:37 your teachers

01:46:38 and I don't

01:46:39 give them an

01:46:40 answer to

01:46:40 this question

01:46:40 what is your

01:46:41 business with

01:46:42 my teachers

01:46:42 and my teachers

01:46:43 right

01:46:43 I never say

01:46:44 to you come

01:46:44 seek knowledge

01:46:45 from me

01:46:45 right

01:46:45 I never say

01:46:46 to the people

01:46:46 brothers and

01:46:47 sisters come

01:46:47 learn I'm

01:46:48 the scholar

01:46:48 that you should

01:46:49 seek knowledge

01:46:50 from right

01:46:50 if you say

01:46:51 I'm saying

01:46:51 something wrong

01:46:52 bring me the

01:46:52 Quran and

01:46:53 sunnah and

01:46:53 the statement

01:46:54 of that

01:46:55 scholar

01:46:55 and I'll say

01:46:56 okay brother

01:46:57 you're right

01:46:57 let me take

01:46:58 that back

01:46:58 but if you

01:46:59 see what I'm

01:47:00 saying is

01:47:00 correct

01:47:00 I'm using

01:47:01 evidences from

01:47:01 the Quran

01:47:02 and sunnah

01:47:02 it's not

01:47:02 your business

01:47:03 who I learned

01:47:04 from when I

01:47:04 was 20 years

01:47:05 ago

01:47:05 it's not your

01:47:06 business

01:47:07 like where

01:47:07 I was

01:47:07 learning

01:47:07 and what

01:47:08 I was

01:47:08 learning

01:47:08 but the

01:47:09 reason they

01:47:09 ask these

01:47:10 things

01:47:10 is because

01:47:11 they want

01:47:12 to label

01:47:12 you

01:47:12 and if

01:47:14 you're not

01:47:14 from that

01:47:15 group of

01:47:15 specific

01:47:15 individual

01:47:16 for the

01:47:16 specific

01:47:17 scholars

01:47:17 you know

01:47:17 we're saying

01:47:18 these things

01:47:18 they already

01:47:19 know who

01:47:19 we're talking

01:47:20 about

01:47:20 but anyways

01:47:21 they already

01:47:22 know

01:47:22 and look

01:47:23 okay

01:47:23 this person

01:47:24 is your

01:47:25 teacher

01:47:25 therefore right

01:47:27 now you have

01:47:28 to be from

01:47:28 this sect

01:47:28 or this

01:47:29 group

01:47:29 they're not

01:47:30 going to

01:47:30 listen to you

01:47:30 they're not

01:47:31 going to

01:47:31 take knowledge

01:47:31 from you

01:47:31 so these

01:47:32 are sadly

01:47:32 issues that

01:47:33 we're facing

01:47:33 as Muslims

01:47:33 right

01:47:34 and yeah

01:47:35 we need to

01:47:35 focus on the

01:47:36 priority

01:47:36 like the new

01:47:37 Muslims 0.88

01:47:37 they need to 0.67

01:47:38 focus on them

01:47:39 the things

01:47:39 that we said

01:47:40 right

01:47:40 if this is a

01:47:41 new Muslim

01:47:41 watching

01:47:42 or someone

01:47:42 who's interested

01:47:43 in Islam

01:47:43 these are all

01:47:44 things that

01:47:44 really you don't

01:47:45 need to concern

01:47:46 yourself with

01:47:46 right

01:47:46 because these

01:47:47 are some

01:47:47 issues like

01:47:47 some Muslims

01:47:48 are having

01:47:48 here and

01:47:49 there

01:47:49 but they're

01:47:49 not really

01:47:50 going to

01:47:50 influence you

01:47:51 that much

01:47:51 what you

01:47:51 need to

01:47:52 do is to

01:47:52 focus on

01:47:53 is Islam

01:47:54 the truth

01:47:54 or not

01:47:54 is this

01:47:55 message coming

01:47:56 from the

01:47:56 creator

01:47:56 is it

01:47:57 what I'm

01:47:58 supposed to

01:47:58 follow or

01:47:59 is it not

01:47:59 what I'm

01:47:59 supposed to

01:48:00 follow

01:48:00 right

01:48:00 is the

01:48:01 prophet

01:48:01 a messenger

01:48:02 of God

01:48:02 or not

01:48:02 once you

01:48:02 establish that

01:48:03 then okay

01:48:03 you start

01:48:04 implementing it

01:48:05 in your life

01:48:05 gradually as we

01:48:06 were talking

01:48:06 about like

01:48:07 learning

01:48:07 and all of

01:48:08 these things

01:48:08 step by step

01:48:09 but yeah

01:48:10 this is more

01:48:11 of a discussion

01:48:11 you know

01:48:13 a lot of

01:48:16 the things

01:48:16 that we're

01:48:16 talking about

01:48:17 are like

01:48:17 it's a very

01:48:18 niche topics

01:48:20 and perhaps

01:48:21 maybe a bit

01:48:22 more advanced

01:48:22 I don't know

01:48:23 if you want to

01:48:23 touch on what

01:48:23 he said

01:48:24 about Palestine

01:48:24 before we do

01:48:27 that so the

01:48:27 kitchen is going

01:48:28 to be closing

01:48:29 soon

01:48:29 you guys want

01:48:29 any burgers

01:48:30 or anything

01:48:30 like that

01:48:31 you guys sure

01:48:32 you guys haven't

01:48:33 even looked at

01:48:33 the menu

01:48:36 food today

01:48:37 remember

01:48:37 we did

01:48:38 he said you

01:48:38 remember

01:48:39 I definitely

01:48:39 remember

01:48:40 what do you

01:48:41 think of

01:48:41 Somali food

01:48:41 bro

01:48:42 I loved it

01:48:43 I loved it

01:48:44 very nice

01:48:45 you had

01:48:45 Somali food

01:48:46 before bro

01:48:46 I had yeah

01:48:47 I like Somali food

01:48:48 actually I do

01:48:49 there's a specific

01:48:50 shop in Islam

01:48:51 where I eat

01:48:51 sometimes regularly

01:48:52 as well

01:48:53 oh we got

01:48:53 somebody here

01:48:54 kitchen closes

01:48:55 you guys need

01:48:56 anything

01:48:56 thank you

01:48:58 tea

01:48:59 before the

01:49:00 kitchen closes

01:49:01 do you want

01:49:01 any food

01:49:02 no I'm okay

01:49:03 tea

01:49:04 tea

01:49:05 what do we

01:49:06 need

01:49:06 all right

01:49:07 now we're good

01:49:07 tea

01:49:09 tea

01:49:09 yeah just a

01:49:10 bunch of tea

01:49:10 you know you're

01:49:11 fasting tomorrow

01:49:12 so you want to

01:49:12 eat something

01:49:13 for a

01:49:13 Somali food

01:49:15 we'll just

01:49:17 talk about that

01:49:17 you know another

01:49:18 interesting thing

01:49:19 to keep in mind

01:49:20 is that I've

01:49:20 noticed because

01:49:21 you've said like

01:49:21 one extreme

01:49:22 of one person

01:49:23 accepts Islam

01:49:23 a new Muslim

01:49:24 is yes they're

01:49:25 overwhelmed but I

01:49:26 think there's

01:49:26 another extreme as

01:49:27 well is that

01:49:28 people start

01:49:28 thinking everything

01:49:29 is the issue of

01:49:29 disagreement

01:49:30 and I've

01:49:30 encountered

01:49:31 people like

01:49:31 this right

01:49:32 is which

01:49:32 everything you

01:49:33 tell them

01:49:33 you don't

01:49:34 understand that

01:49:35 we have to

01:49:35 come back to

01:49:36 the text

01:49:36 right the

01:49:37 evidence is

01:49:37 that which

01:49:37 establish the

01:49:39 correct position

01:49:39 and not every

01:49:40 disagreement is a

01:49:41 valid disagreement

01:49:42 yeah so I've

01:49:43 seen certain

01:49:43 people okay and

01:49:44 now they pick and

01:49:45 choose now it

01:49:45 becomes a desire

01:49:46 issue sadly of

01:49:47 these individuals

01:49:48 so that's also

01:49:48 another like I

01:49:49 think caveat that

01:49:50 needs to be kept

01:49:51 in mind right

01:49:52 but you had a

01:49:52 question about

01:49:53 Palestine like 0.99

01:49:53 first I wasn't

01:49:55 saying I'm doing

01:49:55 a coke break I

01:49:56 just went to the

01:49:56 bathroom there's

01:49:57 no cocaine but I

01:49:58 noticed like there's

01:50:00 no coke he just

01:50:00 came from

01:50:01 Saudi so that's 0.96

01:50:02 not gonna happen

01:50:03 literally yesterday

01:50:03 I noticed there's

01:50:05 a lot of people

01:50:05 like like Jake

01:50:06 Shields and Owen

01:50:07 Benjamin and

01:50:07 the comedians and

01:50:09 the UFC fighters

01:50:10 people like that

01:50:10 are starting to

01:50:11 realize the truth

01:50:12 about Islam because

01:50:13 they're opening up

01:50:13 to the evils of

01:50:14 Zionism how much 0.99

01:50:16 do you think we

01:50:17 should speak about

01:50:17 that because

01:50:18 obviously that's a

01:50:18 very controversial

01:50:19 subject a lot of

01:50:20 people don't want

01:50:20 to speak about

01:50:21 that maybe you

01:50:21 could push people

01:50:22 away Zionism 0.99

01:50:23 yeah but it

01:50:24 seems like that's

01:50:24 like in my

01:50:25 opinion it seems

01:50:26 like that's an

01:50:26 effective way of

01:50:27 that's an

01:50:28 effective form of

01:50:29 Dawa

01:50:29 well Zionism I

01:50:31 don't know if

01:50:32 it's like a

01:50:32 competitive to

01:50:33 Islam like that 1.00

01:50:34 man Zionism is 1.00

01:50:34 like if you look

01:50:36 at the history of

01:50:36 Zionism right 1.00

01:50:37 the founding fathers

01:50:40 of it like

01:50:40 Herzl and

01:50:41 Weisman

01:50:42 Chaim Weisman

01:50:43 and these guys

01:50:44 they were atheists

01:50:45 they were not even

01:50:45 like religious Jews 1.00

01:50:46 and stuff they

01:50:47 just wanted a

01:50:47 homeland for their

01:50:49 people what is

01:50:50 Zionism is like 1.00

01:50:51 if you believe in a

01:50:52 homeland for the

01:50:53 Jewish people

01:50:53 right now I

01:50:56 don't mind the

01:50:57 Jewish people having 0.98

01:50:57 their homeland so

01:50:58 long as it's not on

01:50:59 someone else's

01:50:59 homeland that's my

01:51:00 issue with Zionism 0.80

01:51:01 you can have your

01:51:02 own homeland but

01:51:03 just don't put it on

01:51:04 someone else's

01:51:04 homeland this is the

01:51:05 issue and so I'm

01:51:07 not sure if you

01:51:08 guys have read or

01:51:09 seen in the

01:51:10 beginning of like

01:51:10 when they were

01:51:12 offered like

01:51:12 Chaim Weisman was

01:51:13 offered a certain

01:51:14 Uganda he said

01:51:15 what do you guys

01:51:16 think of the

01:51:17 British says

01:51:18 Uganda is a 1.00

01:51:19 country you can

01:51:20 sell there as

01:51:20 Jews so we don't 1.00

01:51:21 want anything to 0.99

01:51:22 do with you

01:51:22 Herzl Argentina

01:51:24 yeah Argentina

01:51:25 do you think

01:51:26 about Argentina

01:51:27 so look wherever

01:51:28 they have

01:51:29 established themselves

01:51:30 this idea of a

01:51:31 people displacing

01:51:32 other people to

01:51:32 put themselves there

01:51:33 whether it's an

01:51:34 Argentina or Uganda

01:51:35 or Palestine I

01:51:36 think it's a it's

01:51:37 an abominable idea

01:51:38 and someone could

01:51:40 argue well you guys

01:51:40 believe in expansion

01:51:41 because let's let's

01:51:43 have a higher level

01:51:44 counter now so you

01:51:45 guys talk about

01:51:46 colonialism and

01:51:47 expansionism and

01:51:48 Zionism and its 1.00

01:51:49 problems but you

01:51:50 guys had no problem

01:51:51 with conquest in for

01:51:55 example the conquest

01:51:55 and they'll give you

01:51:56 a map of like yeah

01:51:57 North Africa and

01:51:58 stuff and has been

01:51:59 conquered by the

01:51:59 Muslims two things 1.00

01:52:01 need to be understood

01:52:02 when conquest took

01:52:03 place it wasn't

01:52:05 acceptable islamically

01:52:06 and it wasn't

01:52:07 implemented for the

01:52:08 most part although

01:52:09 there are exceptions

01:52:10 that people would go

01:52:11 into the house of a

01:52:12 Christian or a Jew 0.94

01:52:13 take them out and

01:52:14 live in there

01:52:15 and you're like

01:52:18 Steve they're coming

01:52:22 Steve the blue pill is

01:52:25 coming

01:52:26 his jewelry sounds 0.97

01:52:27 ridiculous 0.99

01:52:28 your jewelry sounds like 1.00

01:52:30 cowbells

01:52:30 Steve

01:52:31 Steve

01:52:32 Steve

01:52:33 Steve

01:52:34 they're coming

01:52:36 why not

01:52:38 so I need one

01:52:39 English teapot

01:52:40 one old grade

01:52:41 two American

01:52:41 good man

01:52:41 I guess a bit more

01:52:42 water actually

01:52:43 more water

01:52:43 do you want the

01:52:44 table to be cleared

01:52:44 as well

01:52:45 why not

01:52:46 is that footy

01:52:47 yeah

01:52:47 but more water

01:52:49 lost connection

01:52:50 no no no

01:52:51 switched on the

01:52:52 battery

01:52:52 oh okay okay

01:52:53 just tell me

01:52:54 so I can tell

01:52:54 the chat

01:52:55 oh is it on again

01:52:57 no we're good

01:52:57 we're good

01:52:57 yeah

01:52:57 should we make

01:53:00 space for Eamon

01:53:01 too he's gonna

01:53:01 be coming early

01:53:02 yeah yeah

01:53:03 when he comes

01:53:03 here we'll

01:53:04 sell it

01:53:05 but what I'm

01:53:06 saying is that

01:53:06 that's the first

01:53:07 thing we don't

01:53:07 believe in someone

01:53:08 coming into

01:53:09 somebody else's

01:53:09 house whether

01:53:10 they're Muslim

01:53:10 Christian or Jew

01:53:11 taking them out

01:53:12 of their house

01:53:12 tell them to go

01:53:14 away and then

01:53:15 I'm gonna live

01:53:15 in your house

01:53:16 that's never the

01:53:18 model of Islamic

01:53:19 expansionism that

01:53:20 was ever acceptable

01:53:21 because someone

01:53:21 would say well

01:53:22 you believed in

01:53:22 Islamic expansionism 0.98

01:53:23 we never believed 0.95

01:53:24 in kicking a Jew 1.00

01:53:25 out of their house 0.67

01:53:25 and overtaking the house

01:53:26 it's his property

01:53:27 nor is it what

01:53:28 happened in history

01:53:29 effectively as well

01:53:29 now obviously

01:53:31 they're gonna find

01:53:31 some exceptions

01:53:32 the Muahidun

01:53:33 and this one

01:53:33 and that one

01:53:34 ISIS

01:53:34 there were some

01:53:35 historical events

01:53:36 that took place

01:53:36 which we condemn

01:53:37 but we condemn it

01:53:38 no problem

01:53:39 that's the first

01:53:40 thing

01:53:40 the second thing

01:53:41 is

01:53:41 Shabir Akhtar

01:53:43 who was part of

01:53:45 the Sapiens Institute

01:53:46 for some time

01:53:47 actually done some

01:53:47 stuff for us

01:53:48 but he was also

01:53:49 a lecturer

01:53:50 at the University

01:53:51 of Oxford

01:53:51 he died recently

01:53:52 Muslim guy

01:53:52 he was one of the

01:53:53 top guys

01:53:54 mashallah

01:53:54 but when I was

01:53:55 having a conversation

01:53:56 with him about this

01:53:57 he said it very

01:53:57 beautifully

01:53:58 he said

01:53:58 he didn't mind

01:53:59 using the term

01:54:00 imperialism

01:54:00 with Islam

01:54:01 he was

01:54:02 unapologetic

01:54:03 like that

01:54:04 he said

01:54:04 Islamic imperialism

01:54:07 wasn't imperialism

01:54:08 he said why

01:54:09 he said because

01:54:10 when Islam

01:54:10 expanded

01:54:11 to different

01:54:12 parts of the world

01:54:13 it wasn't that

01:54:14 the money

01:54:14 and the resources

01:54:15 were being taken

01:54:16 and reshifted

01:54:18 to Mecca

01:54:18 for example

01:54:19 or Baghdad

01:54:19 they were staying

01:54:20 in their own land

01:54:21 whereas European

01:54:23 imperialism

01:54:24 the money

01:54:24 was being

01:54:25 taken from

01:54:25 Africa

01:54:26 and transported

01:54:27 to another part

01:54:28 of the world

01:54:28 like for example

01:54:29 I just came

01:54:30 from Karachi

01:54:30 the guys

01:54:31 were telling me

01:54:32 in Pakistan

01:54:32 Karachi was the 0.99

01:54:33 port

01:54:33 where people

01:54:34 the spices

01:54:35 that were there

01:54:36 were used

01:54:37 they were taken

01:54:38 and gone back

01:54:39 to Manchester

01:54:39 people were drinking

01:54:40 and eating

01:54:41 and enjoying

01:54:41 here in the UK

01:54:42 the spices

01:54:43 of the Indians

01:54:44 but they were not

01:54:45 benefiting from it

01:54:46 that's not

01:54:46 the model of

01:54:47 Islamic

01:54:47 so called

01:54:48 Islamic imperialism

01:54:49 admit fine

01:54:50 Islamic imperialism

01:54:51 but that's not

01:54:51 the model of

01:54:52 Islamic imperialism

01:54:52 that was his view

01:54:53 he said

01:54:54 so number one

01:54:54 there wasn't

01:54:55 a transfer

01:54:55 of resources

01:54:56 like that

01:54:57 so number one

01:54:57 we said

01:54:58 we don't believe

01:54:59 in kicking people

01:55:00 out of their homes

01:55:01 and overtaking them

01:55:02 number two

01:55:03 and overtaking

01:55:04 the homes

01:55:04 like that

01:55:05 en masse

01:55:05 removing people

01:55:07 and coming in

01:55:07 number two

01:55:08 we don't believe

01:55:09 in taking resources

01:55:10 and shifting them

01:55:10 from one place

01:55:11 to another

01:55:11 like that

01:55:12 effectively stealing

01:55:13 this is

01:55:14 kleptocracy

01:55:15 this is called

01:55:16 the kleptocracy

01:55:16 when you're

01:55:17 a thievocracy 1.00

01:55:18 you're a thief 1.00

01:55:20 you're a high 1.00

01:55:21 grade thief 1.00

01:55:22 European colonialism 1.00

01:55:23 you're just thieves 1.00

01:55:24 and the Zionists 1.00

01:55:25 you're a thief 1.00

01:55:26 you're a professional thief 1.00

01:55:28 that's what you are 1.00

01:55:29 my friend

01:55:29 it's not the same

01:55:31 as okay

01:55:31 expansion

01:55:32 so someone will say

01:55:32 well you believed

01:55:33 in conquest

01:55:34 and now you're

01:55:35 calling it occupation

01:55:36 before you called it

01:55:37 conquest

01:55:37 what's the difference

01:55:38 the difference is called

01:55:39 the Geneva Conventions

01:55:40 the difference is called

01:55:41 World War I

01:55:42 and World War II

01:55:43 the way in which

01:55:44 the world worked

01:55:45 before World War I

01:55:46 and World War II

01:55:46 is completely different

01:55:47 conquest was effectively

01:55:49 acceptable

01:55:49 for the most part

01:55:50 of the Middle Ages

01:55:51 it was understandable

01:55:52 look for example

01:55:53 if

01:55:55 Jerusalem itself

01:55:57 had been overtaken

01:55:57 and it was overtaken

01:55:58 it was overtaken

01:56:00 by the Christians

01:56:01 at one point

01:56:02 called the Crusades

01:56:03 we weren't calling it

01:56:04 occupied territory

01:56:05 we call it

01:56:06 conquered territory

01:56:07 and we have to

01:56:08 reconquer it

01:56:08 when the Spanish 0.83

01:56:11 reconquist

01:56:13 they literally

01:56:14 called it

01:56:14 reconquist

01:56:14 so Spain

01:56:16 was conquered

01:56:16 by Muslims

01:56:17 and then it was

01:56:17 reconquered

01:56:18 by Spanish

01:56:20 Christians

01:56:21 we don't call it

01:56:21 occupied

01:56:22 we don't go to Spain

01:56:23 and call it

01:56:23 occupied territory

01:56:24 because we understand

01:56:25 that this happened

01:56:26 in a game of conquest

01:56:27 we lost

01:56:28 we fought

01:56:29 and we lost

01:56:29 the problem

01:56:30 the difference is

01:56:31 before and after

01:56:33 World War I

01:56:34 and II

01:56:34 is

01:56:35 that now we have

01:56:37 agreements

01:56:37 not to take over

01:56:38 each other's lands

01:56:39 the agreement

01:56:40 makes a difference

01:56:41 because now that

01:56:42 we have agreements

01:56:43 agreements are binding

01:56:43 in liberalism

01:56:44 political liberalism

01:56:45 and they're binding

01:56:45 in Islam

01:56:46 they're binding

01:56:47 in both

01:56:47 you're talking

01:56:47 about international

01:56:48 law

01:56:48 yeah

01:56:50 it's not just

01:56:51 so yes

01:56:51 international law

01:56:51 is one of those

01:56:52 things

01:56:52 but we have

01:56:52 agreements

01:56:53 which is that

01:56:53 we're not going

01:56:53 to take

01:56:54 each other's

01:56:54 sovereign land

01:56:55 that's something

01:56:56 we've agreed

01:56:57 you put your

01:56:57 name to this

01:56:58 now

01:56:58 so the thing

01:56:59 with Israel

01:57:00 is

01:57:00 we saw this

01:57:01 in a debate

01:57:01 with this guy 0.99

01:57:02 this muppet 0.96

01:57:03 he calls himself 0.65

01:57:04 Destiny

01:57:05 the bisexual

01:57:07 did it

01:57:11 I don't know

01:57:14 I don't know

01:57:15 I don't know

01:57:16 but this one

01:57:17 she left him

01:57:18 is that true

01:57:19 Wikipedia guy

01:57:23 I don't know

01:57:23 who he is

01:57:23 but if you're talking

01:57:24 about him

01:57:25 he's wasting

01:57:25 our breath

01:57:26 he's not worthy

01:57:27 you fell

01:57:27 that debate

01:57:27 I watch the whole

01:57:28 thing

01:57:28 because anything

01:57:29 with Norman Finkelstein

01:57:29 I watch

01:57:30 because as a matter

01:57:31 of protocol

01:57:32 he's a Jewish

01:57:34 pro-Palestine

01:57:35 yes

01:57:36 he's a Jew too

01:57:37 he's a Jewish

01:57:37 Finkelstein

01:57:38 come on man

01:57:38 no no no

01:57:39 I don't think he's pro-Palestine

01:57:40 Finkelstein's us

01:57:40 with us

01:57:41 they're using him

01:57:42 to pretend

01:57:43 that he's pro-Palestine

01:57:44 no no

01:57:44 Finkelstein's pro-Palestine 0.93

01:57:46 no no no

01:57:46 I'm talking about

01:57:47 are you talking about

01:57:48 Frankenstein

01:57:48 or are you talking about

01:57:49 the other one

01:57:49 no no no

01:57:50 Frankenstein's pro-Palestine 0.98

01:57:54 yeah

01:57:54 he's top scholar

01:57:57 he's only

01:57:58 he is

01:57:59 I was talking about

01:57:59 the other one

01:58:00 but at the end of it

01:58:01 Benny Morris

01:58:02 who was the

01:58:03 the interlocutor

01:58:04 he said

01:58:05 we don't care

01:58:06 about international

01:58:06 effectively he was saying

01:58:07 I don't care

01:58:07 about international law

01:58:08 then

01:58:09 Finkelstein said

01:58:11 well if you don't care

01:58:11 about international law

01:58:12 you shouldn't care

01:58:12 about October 7th

01:58:13 why are you complaining

01:58:13 well there's no problem

01:58:15 with October 7th

01:58:16 and he said

01:58:17 I didn't complain

01:58:18 about October 7th

01:58:18 if you watch it

01:58:19 it's so interesting

01:58:20 that exchange there

01:58:21 was so interesting

01:58:22 because they know

01:58:23 that international law

01:58:24 condemns everything

01:58:25 they're doing

01:58:25 right

01:58:25 and the argument is

01:58:27 that you have

01:58:28 you're trying to play

01:58:29 both games brother

01:58:30 you're trying to say

01:58:32 that we're a sovereign nation

01:58:33 we want to be protected

01:58:34 by the world

01:58:35 we want this or that

01:58:35 we're not going to

01:58:37 occupy land

01:58:37 nor will we be

01:58:38 occupied

01:58:38 all that stuff

01:58:39 but at the same time

01:58:40 you're doing all that stuff

01:58:41 so the issue is

01:58:42 that the reason why

01:58:43 it's now occupation

01:58:45 and not conquest

01:58:45 is because you've

01:58:46 signed an agreement

01:58:47 not to conquer

01:58:48 that's the difference

01:58:50 now we live in a

01:58:51 different age

01:58:52 where you've signed

01:58:53 an agreement

01:58:54 now that agreement

01:58:55 in terms

01:58:55 is binding

01:58:56 if a Muslim state 0.84

01:58:57 does an agreement

01:58:58 with a non-Muslim state 0.97

01:58:59 and they say

01:59:00 we're not going to

01:59:00 conquer each other

01:59:00 and one of them

01:59:02 tries to conquer like this

01:59:03 then this would be

01:59:04 considered to be

01:59:05 a breach of the agreement

01:59:06 it would be

01:59:07 and in Islam

01:59:08 it's not allowed

01:59:08 so that's why

01:59:10 one can say

01:59:11 okay well look

01:59:12 at Islamic expansionism

01:59:13 Islamic conquest 0.98

01:59:14 took place

01:59:14 in the age of conquest

01:59:15 if Islamic conquest 0.92

01:59:17 took place

01:59:18 in this age

01:59:18 we would condemn

01:59:19 if there was

01:59:20 an agreement

01:59:20 we'd condemn it

01:59:21 if there was

01:59:22 an agreement

01:59:23 between a Muslim 1.00

01:59:23 and non-Muslim nation

01:59:24 because Islam

01:59:24 doesn't allow that

01:59:25 there's many verses

01:59:25 in the Quran

01:59:26 that say that

01:59:27 explicitly in fact

01:59:28 so the point I'm making

01:59:30 is that there are

01:59:30 many differences

01:59:31 between what we see

01:59:33 of Zionism 0.86

01:59:33 and what they try

01:59:35 and compare it

01:59:36 with Islamic expansion

01:59:37 in the past

01:59:37 there is no comparison

01:59:38 because number one

01:59:39 with Islam

01:59:41 there was

01:59:42 government change

01:59:43 pardon

01:59:43 it was government change

01:59:44 it wasn't taking over

01:59:46 demographic change

01:59:47 and taking over

01:59:48 people's houses

01:59:48 like this

01:59:49 number two

01:59:49 the resources

01:59:49 were not replaced

01:59:50 like this

01:59:50 nor does it say

01:59:51 it's allowed to be

01:59:52 in this kleptocracy

01:59:53 type way

01:59:54 and number three

01:59:55 there was no agreement

01:59:57 that we're not going

01:59:57 to conquer each other's lands

01:59:58 and like

01:59:59 on top of all of that

02:00:01 the reality is

02:00:02 what they're doing

02:00:03 right now

02:00:04 as a government

02:00:05 they're holding people

02:00:06 this is something

02:00:06 that is unprecedented

02:00:07 in history

02:00:08 so let alone

02:00:09 just taking over

02:00:09 the country

02:00:10 what they're doing

02:00:11 to the humans

02:00:12 that they're not even

02:00:12 treating as humans

02:00:13 putting them without food

02:00:14 without water

02:00:14 killing them

02:00:15 this is now 1.00

02:00:16 go to any Islamic history

02:00:18 any Islamic expansion

02:00:19 show me an example

02:00:21 of something

02:00:21 even remotely similar

02:00:22 to this

02:00:23 so this is like

02:00:24 there's no like

02:00:25 even argument there

02:00:26 if you want to make 1.00

02:00:26 that stupid argument 1.00

02:00:28 about taking a country 1.00

02:00:29 or this or that

02:00:29 but he was saying

02:00:30 something more

02:00:31 about how much

02:00:32 should we keep

02:00:33 that our main focus

02:00:34 and I think

02:00:34 it's very important

02:00:35 because

02:00:35 I think that's a good

02:00:37 response to that argument

02:00:38 like you could just say

02:00:39 that Israel's winning

02:00:40 the war

02:00:40 and that that's

02:00:41 happened in the past

02:00:42 but I was saying

02:00:43 how much should you

02:00:43 speak about that

02:00:45 in order

02:00:45 in terms of Dawa

02:00:46 have you seen that

02:00:48 as an effective way

02:00:49 to why do you think

02:00:50 exactly that's way

02:00:51 making so many people

02:00:52 up to this

02:00:52 I think because of

02:00:53 the resolve of the

02:00:54 Palestinian people

02:00:54 bro

02:00:55 because of the way

02:00:56 they're reacting to this

02:00:57 and we can see that

02:00:59 they're reacting to this

02:00:59 due to faith

02:01:00 so for example

02:01:02 now we're watching 0.92

02:01:02 that they're getting killed 0.69

02:01:03 like 30,000 people

02:01:05 it's too much to watch

02:01:07 to be honest with you

02:01:07 they're fasting in Ramadan

02:01:08 they're fasting in Ramadan

02:01:09 but the resolve

02:01:10 and tawakkur

02:01:11 the reliance they have on God

02:01:12 you look at the women 1.00

02:01:13 how they're reacting

02:01:14 the women and children

02:01:15 they're reacting in a way

02:01:16 it's too

02:01:17 the resolve

02:01:19 and the resilience

02:01:19 and the strength

02:01:20 you know that's not coming

02:01:22 from some materialistic reason

02:01:24 you know that's coming

02:01:24 from a faith based origin

02:01:26 and everyone knows

02:01:27 they want to have that

02:01:28 I think there's a sense of

02:01:31 people are watching that

02:01:32 and thinking

02:01:32 whatever they have

02:01:33 I want to have the same thing

02:01:34 because imagine if they're

02:01:36 going through this much suffering

02:01:38 and they're still able to

02:01:39 have this much sanity

02:01:41 and this much security

02:01:42 optimism

02:01:43 and optimism

02:01:44 and hope and change

02:01:45 imagine us

02:01:46 we're depressed

02:01:46 and anxious

02:01:47 and so on

02:01:48 and we don't even have

02:01:49 that much to be

02:01:50 depressed about

02:01:51 so they start to realise

02:01:54 the levels

02:01:55 between them and us

02:01:57 and they're saying

02:01:58 whatever they have

02:01:59 I want to have the same thing

02:02:00 because imagine if I had it

02:02:01 in my day to day life

02:02:02 here in the west

02:02:02 if I had what they had

02:02:04 in my day to day life

02:02:06 here in the west

02:02:07 how much better

02:02:07 my life would be

02:02:08 it goes back to what

02:02:09 Bruce Lee said

02:02:10 I didn't pray

02:02:11 to have an easy life

02:02:12 I prayed to God

02:02:14 to have the ability

02:02:16 to deal with a difficult one

02:02:17 and I think people

02:02:18 look at the Palestinian people 1.00

02:02:19 and say

02:02:20 I want to have the ability

02:02:21 to deal with a difficult life

02:02:22 I want to be able to have

02:02:23 that resolve and resilience

02:02:23 and what is it causing

02:02:25 they know

02:02:25 what's causing that resolve

02:02:26 and resilience

02:02:27 is Islam

02:02:28 is tawakkul 0.76

02:02:29 you know subhanAllah

02:02:30 even you can check

02:02:31 examples of this

02:02:32 and I've got examples

02:02:32 of this

02:02:33 where people of Islam

02:02:35 a woman accepted Islam

02:02:36 this is what she mentioned

02:02:37 right

02:02:37 what drove her to read

02:02:39 in the Quran

02:02:39 or learning about Islam

02:02:40 was her watching

02:02:41 the videos of the Palestinians

02:02:42 how they reacted

02:02:43 to what happened

02:02:43 right

02:02:44 so that is a very

02:02:45 positive side

02:02:45 of what happened

02:02:47 and now everyone

02:02:48 is talking about it

02:02:49 because obviously

02:02:49 first of Twitter

02:02:50 allowing it to be

02:02:51 published there

02:02:52 and this and that

02:02:52 and it's become

02:02:53 a global thing

02:02:54 right

02:02:55 but I think it's

02:02:56 very important as well

02:02:57 to keep in mind

02:02:57 is like

02:02:58 which is something

02:02:59 that maybe we spoke

02:03:00 about last time

02:03:01 we spoke

02:03:01 it's what is the main

02:03:02 priority of my existence

02:03:03 in life

02:03:04 right

02:03:04 because there are

02:03:05 a group of people now

02:03:06 which they will be

02:03:07 labeled by their

02:03:08 enemies

02:03:09 if you want to say

02:03:10 enemies right

02:03:10 they will be labeled

02:03:11 as conspiracy theories

02:03:12 day and night

02:03:13 day and night

02:03:13 what they do

02:03:14 is to look at

02:03:15 okay this happened

02:03:16 in this part of history

02:03:17 okay this is what happened

02:03:19 what really happened

02:03:20 to the Jews

02:03:21 during this time

02:03:22 okay these people

02:03:22 around this country

02:03:23 okay

02:03:24 what is the positive effect

02:03:26 that you're making

02:03:27 this is a question now

02:03:28 that needs to be asked

02:03:29 okay

02:03:29 many of these people

02:03:30 that you're talking about

02:03:31 okay if you're pushing

02:03:31 positive effect

02:03:32 in the general populace

02:03:34 okay the Muslim people

02:03:34 are being oppressed

02:03:35 etc

02:03:36 that's a good thing

02:03:37 right

02:03:37 but how much energy

02:03:38 should you put

02:03:39 what is the priority

02:03:40 again talking about

02:03:41 priorities

02:03:41 what is the priority

02:03:42 why am I here

02:03:43 in this life

02:03:43 okay

02:03:44 right now I sat down

02:03:45 let's say he didn't know

02:03:46 or you didn't know

02:03:47 before who is controlling

02:03:48 the world

02:03:49 quote and quote

02:03:49 right

02:03:49 and then I said to you

02:03:50 okay these people

02:03:50 control the world

02:03:51 give you the facts

02:03:51 what's next

02:03:52 then what

02:03:55 okay now he knows

02:03:56 who's controlling

02:03:56 okay

02:03:56 am I with him now

02:03:57 going to create a company

02:03:58 and go do something

02:03:59 right

02:03:59 okay

02:04:00 what effect

02:04:01 what is the

02:04:02 in the grand scheme

02:04:03 of things

02:04:03 you're still a human being

02:04:04 you're still a creator

02:04:05 and you're still 0.95

02:04:06 going to die one day 0.96

02:04:06 we need to think about

02:04:08 what is the main

02:04:09 priority to think about

02:04:10 okay

02:04:11 why are we in this life

02:04:12 who plays this here

02:04:12 yes there is

02:04:13 forces of evil

02:04:14 God told us about

02:04:15 forces of evil

02:04:16 he told us about

02:04:17 their ways

02:04:17 what they're trying to do

02:04:18 but how much energy

02:04:19 should I put

02:04:20 is how much of a

02:04:21 priority it is

02:04:22 there is good influence

02:04:23 yes

02:04:24 there is a good effect

02:04:24 good change

02:04:25 so you put some energy

02:04:26 yes

02:04:26 we're not saying

02:04:27 don't put energy

02:04:27 we're saying put energy

02:04:28 talk about it

02:04:28 make videos I've done

02:04:29 he's done

02:04:29 he's done debates

02:04:30 there is

02:04:31 we talk about it

02:04:32 right

02:04:32 but to what extent

02:04:34 is what we're talking about

02:04:34 right

02:04:35 put things in perspective

02:04:36 put things in

02:04:36 priorities and think about

02:04:37 it from that perspective

02:04:38 don't make your whole life

02:04:39 just okay

02:04:40 this person

02:04:40 this conspiracy there

02:04:42 or look

02:04:42 this is the truth

02:04:43 about what happened

02:04:43 in this specific time

02:04:44 okay then what

02:04:45 what is the major impact

02:04:48 that you've really

02:04:49 put forward

02:04:49 and a very important thing

02:04:51 you know

02:04:51 when you mentioned

02:04:51 that Muslims are

02:04:52 taking over London 0.92

02:04:53 this is something

02:04:53 I want to mention

02:04:55 because now

02:04:55 many of these people

02:04:56 that you're talking about

02:04:57 that talk about

02:04:59 all of these

02:05:00 if you don't call them

02:05:00 conspiracies

02:05:01 as I told you before

02:05:02 that it's not necessarily

02:05:03 it is a conspiracy

02:05:03 that's just a shaming word

02:05:05 but the thing is

02:05:05 those people

02:05:06 many of them

02:05:07 think

02:05:07 that ultimate

02:05:09 the ultimate goal

02:05:10 is you know what

02:05:11 we shouldn't have

02:05:12 race mixing

02:05:12 in our country

02:05:13 we need to keep

02:05:13 our country

02:05:14 just for our people

02:05:15 and using a racist

02:05:17 slur on social media

02:05:18 this is absolute

02:05:19 freedom of speech

02:05:20 this is what those people

02:05:21 have started thinking

02:05:22 what reality is

02:05:23 using racist slur

02:05:25 and you know what

02:05:27 bringing back stoning 0.86

02:05:28 this is what they say

02:05:29 these terms right

02:05:30 and removing

02:05:32 all of these

02:05:33 different people

02:05:34 that are coming

02:05:35 taking over our country

02:05:36 this is now

02:05:37 the main purpose

02:05:38 in our life

02:05:39 this has become

02:05:40 their life objective

02:05:42 their life purpose

02:05:42 but since you

02:05:43 everything we've discussed

02:05:44 so far

02:05:45 everything we've talked about

02:05:46 is Islam

02:05:47 a positive thing

02:05:49 from the things

02:05:50 that they want

02:05:51 is it a positive thing

02:05:52 or a negative thing

02:05:53 if it's a positive thing

02:05:54 then why are you

02:05:54 having an issue

02:05:55 with increasing

02:05:55 and people adopting it

02:05:56 it teaches women

02:05:58 to be modest

02:05:58 and you have an issue

02:05:59 now with women being in OF 0.66

02:06:00 and all of these things

02:06:01 selling their bodies

02:06:03 you have an issue

02:06:04 and you keep mocking them

02:06:05 okay Islam is giving you 1.00

02:06:06 an alternative

02:06:06 Islam is saying 0.99

02:06:08 for women to be modest 1.00

02:06:09 right

02:06:09 if you're having issues

02:06:11 with dealing with people

02:06:12 with safety

02:06:12 Islam has laws

02:06:14 to do with safety

02:06:15 you're having issues

02:06:15 with anything

02:06:16 essentially

02:06:17 Islam has a solution 1.00

02:06:18 for it

02:06:18 so should you be worried

02:06:19 about people adopting

02:06:21 Islam in your country 0.93

02:06:21 this is a question

02:06:23 if you actually analyze

02:06:25 why people are upset

02:06:26 with Islam growing 0.98

02:06:27 I think the truth is

02:06:28 that people have

02:06:29 a racial bias with it

02:06:30 a lot of it is like

02:06:32 the white majority

02:06:32 having animosity

02:06:33 to the fact that

02:06:34 there's immigrants

02:06:35 coming into their country 1.00

02:06:35 and that their culture

02:06:36 is changing

02:06:37 not for the actual rules

02:06:38 and what people are following

02:06:39 with the religion itself

02:06:41 and you know

02:06:41 look at Dubai

02:06:42 we've said this

02:06:43 over 90% for us

02:06:44 do people

02:06:45 the people who live in Dubai

02:06:47 or born in Dubai

02:06:48 the people in this country

02:06:49 who have passports

02:06:49 do they go and tell them

02:06:50 you know what

02:06:51 we have an issue

02:06:51 start making videos

02:06:52 you know what

02:06:53 we're going to remove

02:06:53 these people

02:06:54 we don't think about it

02:06:55 this way

02:06:55 you're coming

02:06:56 if you're coming

02:06:56 behaving

02:06:57 following the laws

02:06:57 you have a positive impact

02:06:59 rather than a negative impact

02:07:00 then you're welcome

02:07:01 you're welcome

02:07:02 in any country

02:07:02 that's not a good point

02:07:03 I think you know

02:07:03 it's definitely like

02:07:05 we see a difference

02:07:06 towards Europeans 0.85

02:07:08 in the east

02:07:10 versus easterners

02:07:11 in the west

02:07:11 like Dubai

02:07:13 is a very good example

02:07:14 I've spoken to many people

02:07:16 who are Emiratis

02:07:17 I've not sensed

02:07:18 that kind of

02:07:19 oh we need these guys

02:07:20 out of our country

02:07:20 I've never actually

02:07:21 heard that at all

02:07:22 in any country

02:07:23 any country

02:07:23 go to any Muslim country 0.99

02:07:24 you're not going to find

02:07:25 you'll find people living there

02:07:26 happy living

02:07:26 in fact

02:07:28 it's not only

02:07:28 that there's no discrimination

02:07:29 it's the exact opposite

02:07:30 they're treated specially

02:07:31 they're treated in a special way

02:07:33 they're invited to the homes

02:07:34 because of your

02:07:34 hospitality

02:07:36 welcome indoors

02:07:37 so it's the exact opposite

02:07:39 of what we see

02:07:40 being displayed

02:07:40 in the west

02:07:41 the hospitality

02:07:41 you'll see that everywhere

02:07:43 in Muslim culture

02:07:44 and the bias

02:07:45 is from 20 years

02:07:45 of programming

02:07:46 after 9-11

02:07:47 people thinking that

02:07:48 having false ideas

02:07:49 about this

02:07:49 but you're right

02:07:50 I think the reason

02:07:51 that a lot of people

02:07:51 are coming to Islam 0.99

02:07:52 I've seen it

02:07:53 is people

02:07:54 having this sort of despair

02:07:55 about who controls the world

02:07:57 and what's going on

02:07:58 and seeing the evil

02:07:59 that goes on

02:08:00 and then finding

02:08:00 some sort of solace

02:08:01 and finding peace

02:08:02 in this religion

02:08:03 I noticed it

02:08:04 earlier when we met

02:08:05 that Palestinian 0.84

02:08:06 just the energy

02:08:07 from these Palestinians 1.00

02:08:08 he had a giant

02:08:09 Palestinian flag

02:08:10 and everything like that

02:08:10 he was immediately

02:08:11 more vibrant

02:08:12 than we saw

02:08:13 almost anybody that day

02:08:14 and you could tell

02:08:15 that he was probably

02:08:15 something was

02:08:16 maybe happening

02:08:18 with his family

02:08:18 or something like that

02:08:19 but he was just so

02:08:20 happy to just be

02:08:21 in that moment

02:08:22 right there

02:08:23 like that little moment

02:08:24 just talking to people

02:08:25 was that more enthusiasm

02:08:27 than I've had

02:08:29 in weeks

02:08:30 and a lot of people

02:08:31 are resonating with that

02:08:32 and want that

02:08:33 it's something

02:08:34 that you can't get

02:08:34 from dopamine

02:08:35 or from drugs

02:08:36 or from anything else

02:08:37 100% bro

02:08:37 yeah

02:08:38 because they see it

02:08:39 as just like

02:08:40 when we do stuff for them

02:08:41 I mean

02:08:42 they see us as really

02:08:43 supporting their cause bro

02:08:44 and

02:08:46 right now

02:08:47 they're the flag

02:08:48 where it's bomber

02:08:48 it's beyond

02:08:49 what they're doing

02:08:51 what they're going through

02:08:52 like everyone

02:08:52 has sympathy for them

02:08:53 even the non-Muslims 0.97

02:08:55 have sympathy for them

02:08:56 even the Israelis

02:08:57 and Zionists 0.99

02:08:58 have sympathy

02:08:58 yeah

02:08:59 well unfortunately

02:09:00 I'll be honest

02:09:01 I looked at the polls

02:09:02 right

02:09:02 and one of the most

02:09:03 sad things

02:09:04 about this whole conflict

02:09:05 bro

02:09:05 is that the majority

02:09:07 of Israeli people

02:09:10 yeah

02:09:11 Jews in Israel

02:09:12 want this thing

02:09:14 to continue

02:09:14 really

02:09:15 yes bro

02:09:16 I'm not surprised

02:09:18 and I'll say

02:09:19 why I'm not surprised

02:09:20 because the Quran

02:09:21 has something to do with that

02:09:22 you'll see the people

02:09:25 with the most hatred

02:09:26 and enmity

02:09:26 towards the believers 0.96

02:09:27 Allah said

02:09:28 that the people

02:09:29 who say we are Jews

02:09:30 are the polytheists

02:09:31 who India and

02:09:33 Israel

02:09:34 and Israel

02:09:34 don't go to me

02:09:35 it's true

02:09:35 yeah

02:09:35 it's a fact

02:09:36 it's a reality

02:09:37 yes there are exceptions

02:09:38 there are like

02:09:39 we talk about orthodox

02:09:39 but isn't it interesting

02:09:40 it's like

02:09:42 in the future tense

02:09:42 as well isn't it

02:09:43 it's like a prophecy

02:09:43 this is like

02:09:46 you will

02:09:46 I'm known for

02:09:47 Tawqeed again 1.00

02:09:47 like two times

02:09:48 you will find

02:09:50 this is a fact

02:09:51 you will find

02:09:52 the people with most

02:09:53 enmity and hatred

02:09:54 you will find that

02:09:55 so I'm not surprised

02:09:56 and they are growing up

02:09:58 being brainwashed

02:09:59 to believe this

02:10:00 they're growing up

02:10:01 okay this is the enemy

02:10:02 there is something

02:10:03 that we need

02:10:04 it's an elephant

02:10:04 in the room brother

02:10:05 and I'm going to mention it

02:10:07 it's controversial

02:10:08 but I'll mention

02:10:09 which is that

02:10:10 I think we need

02:10:12 to face the fact

02:10:14 it's not just Zionism

02:10:14 it's Judaism as well

02:10:16 and when I say Judaism

02:10:18 I'm not talking about

02:10:19 I'm talking about

02:10:20 Jewish theology

02:10:21 because the thing is

02:10:22 with Jewish theology

02:10:23 if you consider the fact

02:10:25 the Talmud

02:10:27 let's dial it back

02:10:32 because he doesn't want

02:10:33 to keep it too controversial

02:10:34 let's dial it back

02:10:36 he doesn't want to keep it

02:10:36 too controversial

02:10:38 these subjects

02:10:40 we will continue this

02:10:41 let me come on 0.62

02:10:53 let me show some love

02:10:55 are you okay

02:10:56 Jesse you out

02:10:58 we'll see you

02:10:58 I know what's up

02:10:59 you want water

02:11:00 you want

02:11:01 how do you want

02:11:02 how do you want

02:11:03 how do you want

02:12:05 I'm not sure.

02:12:06 I'm not sure.

02:12:10 I'm not sure.

02:12:12 I agree, though, right?

02:12:13 Yeah.

02:12:14 I'm not sure.

02:12:16 I'm not sure.

02:12:18 I'm not sure.

02:12:19 You want me to...

02:12:20 I'm not sure.

02:12:21 I'm not sure.

02:12:23 I'm concerned, guys.

02:12:25 Still.

02:12:26 No, is that something up right now?

02:12:39 Yeah.

02:12:40 What are you doing with your phone, man?

02:12:41 What are you doing with your phone with your life?

02:12:43 My watch, too.

02:12:44 Huh?

02:12:45 My watch?

02:12:46 Oh, my God.

02:12:47 You're stealing it.

02:12:48 No, no, I don't.

02:12:49 I don't know.

02:12:50 I promise.

02:12:51 Huh?

02:12:52 Sorry, brother.

02:12:55 You're right there.

02:12:56 Okay.

02:12:57 How are you doing with your phone?

02:12:58 You want some tea?

02:12:59 You want some tea?

02:13:01 Oh, no.

02:13:02 I forgot your name.

02:13:03 What?

02:13:04 Where is it?

02:13:05 Where is it?

02:13:06 Yeah, where is it?

02:13:07 Yeah, where is it?

02:13:08 How are you doing with your phone?

02:13:09 How are you doing with your phone?

02:13:10 There now, yeah.

02:13:12 He's got the Moroccan of the habit now. 1.00

02:13:14 MashaAllah.

02:13:15 MashaAllah.

02:13:16 Abu Sufiya.

02:13:17 Abu Sufiya.

02:13:18 Thank you.

02:13:19 As-salamu alaykum.

02:13:20 Hakeem, how are you, bro?

02:13:21 We are gathered here today.

02:13:23 I just had two talks.

02:13:24 SubhanAllah.

02:13:25 Come from...

02:13:26 Yes.

02:13:27 I went to Lewin.

02:13:28 Allahumma barik.

02:13:29 Amazing.

02:13:30 And then from Lewin, I went all the way to Sutton.

02:13:32 So it was like the opposite.

02:13:33 So from Lewin to Sutton.

02:13:34 Long day.

02:13:35 Alhamdulillah.

02:13:36 How have you been on a sequel, man?

02:13:37 I'm good, man.

02:13:38 What were the talks about?

02:13:39 Can you catch us up?

02:13:40 Knife crimes and...

02:13:42 We are definitely not free from this.

02:13:43 I'll tell you that, yeah.

02:13:44 But that has to do with...

02:13:45 Look, the youth are hungry for a voice.

02:13:47 They want to be heard.

02:13:49 And no imam, no father, no uncle, no certain community leaders trying to give that to them.

02:13:57 So I'm glad me as a layman, I'd like to come in, Ayman the Layman.

02:14:13 You know what I'm saying?

02:14:14 I like to come in and just resonate.

02:14:15 I'd like to come in and just resonate.

02:14:21 A shout out to the Maalis that gave me that name.

02:14:24 A shout out to the Maalis that gave me that name.

02:14:25 A shout out to the Maalis that gave me that name.

02:14:27 A shout out to the Maalis that gave me that name.

02:14:35 They got some creative weapons here.

02:14:38 They got like big flashlights.

02:14:39 They got walking sticks.

02:14:41 Everybody here.

02:14:41 You're talking about more.

02:14:43 You haven't seen nothing yet.

02:14:45 I don't even know what to see.

02:14:47 In Florida we keep it simple.

02:14:48 But here they have like sticks and wands.

02:14:51 A toolbox full of like hands.

02:14:55 Because we're live here, I'm going to hold my mouth.

02:14:57 But there's a lot of ideas still that you haven't seen yet.

02:14:59 What are you broomsticks? 0.92

02:15:01 Why are you a witch? 0.93

02:15:06 You want to appreciate all of these tickets now. 0.63

02:15:09 I won't give it all away.

02:15:11 I won't give it all away.

02:15:13 Hey man Asif, how you been, bro?

02:15:15 I'm good, I'm good, bro.

02:15:16 I'm good, I'm good.

02:15:17 You're staying safe out here.

02:15:18 Mind yourself, Sneak-o, man. 0.85

02:15:20 Shall I steal my mouth's drink?

02:15:21 Oh, my fine, man.

02:15:22 It's a joke, Sneak-o, man.

02:15:23 Okay, okay.

02:15:24 Be comfortable, my friend.

02:15:25 I'm comfortable, I'm comfortable.

02:15:26 You got me on edge, though.

02:15:27 You're talking about knife crime.

02:15:28 He's got you energetic now.

02:15:29 Look, yesterday we, without trying to tone it down a bit, yesterday, subhanAllah, we had

02:15:36 a brother that straight after Salatul Jum'a, he was on his way home, and a car clipped

02:15:41 him on the tail, and then he spun out of control and just, he lost his life, bro.

02:15:46 The guy's in his early twenties, by, on the 8, 4, 6, so it's just like, it's life is

02:15:52 early twenties, and on Yuma Jum'a as well, on the day of Friday, it's a blessing, bro.

02:16:00 But we just ask Allah that he didn't suffer as he went, Allahumma Ameen, but what can I

02:16:05 do?

02:16:05 So that's why I speak to you, bro.

02:16:06 So, we resonate with the youth, and the youth want to be heard, but no one's giving them

02:16:11 that platform and that opportunity, then, call your local who.

02:16:17 What do you think that the youth wants, what do you think that they want to get out there

02:16:20 that's not getting out there?

02:16:22 Do you know what it is, bro?

02:16:22 It's their voices that are being respected and heard inside the household and the community,

02:16:28 so therefore they find it in the nearest person that could be like a father figure, but

02:16:35 it's not a father figure, so the man on the block, the trap guy, so it's a form of grooming

02:16:40 them, so I'll give you a prime example, I can give you $100 today, and then I'll come

02:16:45 back the next week, and I'll give you another $100, and then the week after that, I'll take

02:16:49 you shopping and say, yo, you want some Jordans, or, so now, now that I've done all of these

02:16:54 things to you, I'll be like, yo, I want something in return.

02:16:56 Listen, listen.

02:16:57 You feel me?

02:16:58 Don't tell them about my strategy with my wife, please, yeah?

02:17:05 Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I am free from this.

02:17:17 But I'm trying to get to LA, man.

02:17:22 What do you want to do now?

02:17:24 I want to conquer.

02:17:25 I'm not there to take over.

02:17:27 Taking over takes time.

02:17:28 Conquering is by force.

02:17:29 That's Warner's territory.

02:17:31 Huh?

02:17:32 Come, come with me.

02:17:33 Come, come with me, bro.

02:17:34 We're on the same team, man.

02:17:35 How long have you been to LA before?

02:17:37 I don't even think I'm not even a lad in the country.

02:17:40 No, no, you're not banned, but it's just, now they've made it harder for you to get in.

02:17:43 For anyone to get in.

02:17:46 Yeah, for the U.S., yes.

02:17:47 No, it's difficult for anyone.

02:17:48 Even a layman.

02:17:49 Even a man layman.

02:17:54 Let me know.

02:17:55 The London youth is very clearly different than the American youth. 0.79

02:18:01 I think the LA youth, their voices are heard.

02:18:04 We're more on social media, it seems like, than these people here.

02:18:07 What do you think the main difference is?

02:18:09 I'm going to be honest with you.

02:18:11 Londoners, I'm going to say UK, forget London.

02:18:13 UK has got more heart than the U.S.

02:18:16 Okay.

02:18:16 When it comes to bravery, when it comes... 1.00

02:18:19 No, no, no, fuck, no, no, no. 1.00

02:18:20 I'm being rude. 1.00

02:18:21 I'm being rude.

02:18:22 I bow.

02:18:23 Let me tell you something.

02:18:24 I just can go.

02:18:25 Go for it, man.

02:18:31 No, no, no, look.

02:18:32 UK, they've been smoking a different type of joint, bro.

02:18:36 Their bravery has come out of nowhere.

02:18:37 You can't compare them to the U.S. 1.00

02:18:40 But my crackhead will kill you in the U.K. 1.00

02:18:42 I crackhead in America now. 1.00

02:18:45 That man is doing the mannequin challenge for me.

02:18:50 They've been known.

02:18:51 But now the bravery is tremendous.

02:18:53 And, look, if we had guns the way you men have guns...

02:18:56 This place would be...

02:18:57 Game overruled.

02:18:59 The purge will be the U.K.

02:19:02 If guns could be as easy as...

02:19:04 No, but it could be argued the opposite.

02:19:06 Let me explain.

02:19:07 If you look at the U.S.

02:19:09 I know what you're thinking.

02:19:11 And it's a difficult one.

02:19:13 If you look at the U.S., there's different gun rules in it.

02:19:15 And you guys will tell me.

02:19:17 Warner, we need you here, man.

02:19:18 Yeah, I'm going to use the restaurant.

02:19:19 All right, so there's different gun rules, yeah?

02:19:23 You know what a concealed carry and an open carry and different ones, yeah?

02:19:27 If it was true that the more access you have to guns

02:19:29 and the more accessibility and opportunity you have with them,

02:19:33 the more violence would occur,

02:19:35 then Texas should be the most violent state.

02:19:38 It's not, though.

02:19:38 It's a good point.

02:19:39 Yeah, so Chicago's...

02:19:40 Because if you know of a woman... 1.00

02:19:41 Think about it, bro.

02:19:43 Knife crime...

02:19:44 If I'm walking in the street right now

02:19:46 and there's a 14-year-old with a big Rambo knife,

02:19:50 he sees me and he might think to himself,

02:19:52 this guy's not carrying anything or whatever.

02:19:55 And therefore, I've got a chance against him.

02:19:57 Maybe you'll think, oh, he's a bit big,

02:19:58 so I won't go for him.

02:19:59 I'll go for a smaller person.

02:20:00 Maybe you'll think that.

02:20:00 Me, me.

02:20:02 No, but it's the difference.

02:20:03 What makes these guys break with knives is

02:20:06 the asymmetry in the equation.

02:20:08 But if he knows that this guy probably has a Glock in his pocket

02:20:11 and he might use it.

02:20:13 Bro, if you're in Texas, yeah,

02:20:15 if you're in Texas and you know that the old woman

02:20:18 has a gun in her pocket, bro, in her pocket,

02:20:20 you're not going to want to rob her that much.

02:20:22 So it could be argued that part of the problem

02:20:26 why we have an issue with knife crime in the UK, London,

02:20:28 is because of the asymmetry in opportunity.

02:20:31 Right.

02:20:31 You're not allowed to carry, like in the UK,

02:20:33 you're not allowed to carry more than two, three-inch knives.

02:20:35 If everyone was allowed to carry 10-inch knives,

02:20:38 you're not allowed to carry more than two, three-inch knives.

02:20:40 No, but if ever...

02:20:41 You could make an argument.

02:20:42 I'm not saying it's the case.

02:20:43 Sometimes the smaller the better still.

02:20:48 No, no, I'm not allowed to carry more than two.

02:20:49 No, no, because you've got more reach.

02:20:52 What I'm saying is that if you're allowed to carry that,

02:20:54 people would maybe think twice about using it

02:20:56 because now we're in a fight.

02:20:58 The thing is, you're more likely to use it

02:21:00 if you think you're not going to get it back.

02:21:02 But if everyone's got 10-inch knives

02:21:05 and they're walking with it freely,

02:21:06 it could even be argued that the crime will go down.

02:21:09 It could be argued.

02:21:10 If everyone's carrying a gun,

02:21:12 it could be argued that this could reduce.

02:21:15 You know what I mean?

02:21:16 So I'm not saying for sure.

02:21:17 It's a good point.

02:21:18 So legalized counterintent.

02:21:19 No, because not necessarily guns,

02:21:21 but it could be argued that way.

02:21:23 Because there's a cultural difference here.

02:21:25 Yeah.

02:21:26 In the US, it's like constitutional right.

02:21:28 Second Amendment.

02:21:28 In the UK, it's so like, you cannot reach it.

02:21:31 It spills it to our blood and our culture.

02:21:33 Whereas in the UK, it's not.

02:21:34 Guns are DNA.

02:21:35 But then the problem of knife crime arises

02:21:37 when you have asymmetry and access to weaponry.

02:21:40 This guy, who's a, let's be honest,

02:21:42 why is crime happening with these certain groups?

02:21:46 It's happening because it's a high-risk, high-reward situation.

02:21:50 Like you said, this guy might be getting money from it.

02:21:53 This guy has got limited things to lose.

02:21:56 He's not going to make it into university in his mind.

02:21:59 He might as well shot rocks in the blocks to get rocks.

02:22:01 He might as well do this kind of thing.

02:22:03 Do you know what I'm saying?

02:22:04 It's actually a rational decision for them. 0.99

02:22:06 They're not just being dumb and impulsive. 0.99

02:22:08 They're thinking about it. 0.99

02:22:09 They're thinking, okay, I can make 60 grand a year

02:22:12 or 80 grand or 100 grand selling a certain thing,

02:22:14 but I need to be armed because I have to be armed.

02:22:17 You know?

02:22:18 So in that situation, it becomes rational for them.

02:22:22 If the state said everyone can have 10-inch knives,

02:22:24 maybe it could argue, I'm not saying this for sure,

02:22:27 maybe we have to look into this,

02:22:28 it will reduce knife crime.

02:22:30 I don't know for sure, but imagine,

02:22:34 imagine like you're on the road, yeah?

02:22:36 Like, let me ask you,

02:22:38 if you knew everyone was carrying a knife

02:22:42 and if everyone knew that everyone else was carrying a knife,

02:22:46 what would you think?

02:22:47 How would that change the psychology?

02:22:49 No, you'd think twice.

02:22:50 You'd think three times.

02:22:51 You wouldn't, wouldn't it?

02:22:51 A hundred percent.

02:22:52 But if you knew they weren't and you were?

02:22:53 It's just joking.

02:22:54 Ah, ah, ah, the devil's coming out.

02:22:56 Yeah, exactly.

02:22:57 No, no, real talk.

02:22:58 So it's a very good point.

02:23:00 But because you guys are so...

02:23:01 Bro, I'm seeing guys,

02:23:04 I watched a documentary years ago

02:23:06 of a guy in the back of a van

02:23:07 selling a Glock for like $200.

02:23:10 I'm like, what the?

02:23:12 Bro, do you know if we got this in this country

02:23:14 for $150?

02:23:16 Ah, bro?

02:23:16 I told you it would be the purge.

02:23:19 The UK would be like the purge.

02:23:21 Where does the anger come from?

02:23:25 I'm going to speak on my behalf, yeah?

02:23:26 I'm going to speak based on...

02:23:27 The lack of sunlight.

02:23:28 No, I'm just going to go ahead.

02:23:30 Could be, could be.

02:23:31 What are they doing in LA?

02:23:32 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

02:23:35 No, Allah might have forgiven you

02:23:37 and now you're going to come back and say no more.

02:23:40 Well, to be honest,

02:23:41 I'm going to speak from what happens

02:23:43 when I speak to the youth.

02:23:44 Bro, they're not being hurt.

02:23:47 And the districts...

02:23:48 Look, a lot of the youth also,

02:23:50 they come from a very abusive background

02:23:52 where their father's being abusive

02:23:55 towards their mother

02:23:55 and they can't release the anger on the father

02:23:58 because they get turned over

02:23:59 so they're going to release it out on someone.

02:24:01 So that's not all cases.

02:24:04 But bro, it's a lot of the cases, bro.

02:24:06 It's a lot of the cases.

02:24:08 Sometimes it's being left out as well.

02:24:09 You see other people prospering in life

02:24:12 and you feel miserable

02:24:13 and like you feel down with yourself

02:24:15 and you feel like you don't have a vision.

02:24:17 But the reality is, bro,

02:24:18 if you're teaching the youth,

02:24:19 because we're all Muslims here,

02:24:20 alhamdulillah,

02:24:21 if you're teaching the youth,

02:24:23 my guy,

02:24:24 the prophet,

02:24:25 peace be upon him,

02:24:26 was Paul.

02:24:27 And he remained Paul.

02:24:29 Like,

02:24:30 Allah could have given him the world

02:24:31 and the gold

02:24:32 and the land itself.

02:24:35 But he chose to remain a humble servant.

02:24:38 So,

02:24:39 and guess what?

02:24:39 Every single prophet was a shepherd as well.

02:24:42 So don't come to me with your,

02:24:43 oh,

02:24:43 I can't do a nine to five

02:24:44 because I'm trapping

02:24:45 and I'm making five grand a day.

02:24:48 What are you talking about, bro?

02:24:49 So they,

02:24:51 they're so,

02:24:53 how can I say this, bro?

02:24:54 They're addicted to this fast life

02:24:56 and fast money.

02:24:57 But the reality is,

02:24:59 I'll give you a prime example.

02:25:00 There's one guy that I know,

02:25:02 but he,

02:25:02 for him just to drop

02:25:03 his bin bags into the rubbish,

02:25:06 the rubbish section in his flat

02:25:08 or whatever it may be,

02:25:09 yeah,

02:25:09 he has to carry a gun

02:25:11 in the UK.

02:25:12 But he would say to him,

02:25:14 bro,

02:25:14 what are you on that?

02:25:15 You got a family and you,

02:25:16 he's a,

02:25:16 bro,

02:25:17 I've already told my family,

02:25:19 if I were to gun,

02:25:20 if I were to get into a shootout

02:25:21 with police,

02:25:24 forget enemies,

02:25:24 but with police,

02:25:26 I'm not going back to prison,

02:25:27 bro, 1.00

02:25:27 they got to kill me. 0.98

02:25:30 Do you understand? 0.88

02:25:30 This is the mindset they have.

02:25:32 They can't.

02:25:33 And look at the issues,

02:25:34 that's happening,

02:25:34 East London's become

02:25:35 one of the worst areas,

02:25:36 bro,

02:25:36 where we are right now. 1.00

02:25:38 Muslims killing Muslims. 1.00

02:25:39 Wait, right here? 1.00

02:25:40 Yeah, bro.

02:25:41 Why are we here?

02:25:42 What?

02:25:43 You guys didn't tell me that

02:25:44 before you see who we see, bro.

02:25:46 Yo,

02:25:46 man,

02:25:47 do you have a gun or something?

02:25:48 No,

02:25:48 we got our beers,

02:25:50 bro.

02:25:50 We have a gun.

02:25:52 We have a lot.

02:25:53 Go,

02:25:54 you want that.

02:25:54 You know what?

02:25:56 To death and beyond,

02:25:57 we're not like these

02:25:58 English people

02:26:00 where they get married

02:26:01 or to death, 0.93

02:26:02 do us part.

02:26:02 No, bro.

02:26:03 As Muslims, 1.00

02:26:04 to death and beyond. 0.98

02:26:05 Remember that.

02:26:07 And get that tattooed 0.91

02:26:08 on your chest.

02:26:08 No, no, no.

02:26:09 Stop it.

02:26:10 No more tattoos for me. 0.99

02:26:11 I don't want to get my shit back. 0.99

02:26:13 Wallahi, 0.99

02:26:13 alhamdulillah,

02:26:14 I've never tasted alcohol as well.

02:26:17 I'm so happy.

02:26:18 Like,

02:26:18 I'm proud of this.

02:26:20 And I didn't have

02:26:20 no tattoo.

02:26:22 It's surprising me

02:26:23 to hear from the outside

02:26:24 looking in

02:26:24 because the way

02:26:25 we talk about Islam

02:26:26 in America

02:26:26 is like,

02:26:27 it's a way

02:26:27 away from all the violence

02:26:29 and from these problems

02:26:30 and then you come here

02:26:31 and it's,

02:26:32 I have to admit

02:26:33 most of the knife crime

02:26:34 and the violent crime

02:26:35 is probably from 0.99

02:26:36 a lot of the Muslim brothers,

02:26:37 unfortunately.

02:26:38 A lot of those, yeah.

02:26:39 Yeah, but how does the dean

02:26:40 and of course

02:26:42 like the work that you do,

02:26:43 it pushes people away from that

02:26:45 and it gets them on their dean.

02:26:46 What's a lack of knowledge, bro?

02:26:47 Right.

02:26:48 I'm trying to push them

02:26:49 to the knowledge.

02:26:50 Bro,

02:26:50 you know when you came

02:26:51 into the shop,

02:26:52 you see the carpet outside,

02:26:54 you know when you

02:26:54 dust off your trainers

02:26:55 because you might have

02:26:56 some dirt on the outside,

02:26:57 I'm that carpet.

02:26:59 Use me

02:27:00 as to be that carpet

02:27:01 before getting further

02:27:03 into the religion

02:27:04 and seeking knowledge

02:27:04 from people of knowledge

02:27:06 and your local imams

02:27:07 and so on and so forth.

02:27:08 So,

02:27:09 what I tend to do now, bro,

02:27:10 is that if I'm drawing

02:27:11 the youth in,

02:27:13 I have someone

02:27:13 of knowledge with me.

02:27:14 So,

02:27:15 the someone of knowledge

02:27:16 will say,

02:27:17 See how you guys do it.

02:27:18 I don't know why you do it.

02:27:20 That's right.

02:27:23 MashaAllah.

02:27:24 MashaAllah.

02:27:25 But,

02:27:26 bring someone of knowledge,

02:27:28 let them speak

02:27:28 about the religion

02:27:29 and then after that,

02:27:31 let me resonate with you.

02:27:33 And,

02:27:33 what the youth want,

02:27:34 they want you to be

02:27:35 vulnerable like them.

02:27:36 So,

02:27:37 when I'm speaking

02:27:38 about certain aspects

02:27:39 of my life

02:27:39 and certain aspects

02:27:41 of the road,

02:27:42 I'm opening up

02:27:44 myself to the boat.

02:27:45 I'm a waste man. 0.93

02:27:46 I'm a waste man

02:27:47 because I disobeyed

02:27:51 my parents.

02:27:51 Right.

02:27:52 This makes you

02:27:52 in a

02:27:54 sperm boat.

02:27:55 For Americans, 0.80

02:27:56 what is a waste man?

02:27:57 What is that?

02:27:58 A waste man 1.00

02:27:58 is a coward. 1.00

02:27:59 A waste man 1.00

02:28:01 a waste man?

02:28:08 It's funny.

02:28:09 I don't even know

02:28:09 it's funny.

02:28:10 It's funny.

02:28:11 I don't know.

02:28:12 Why is that funny?

02:28:14 This is,

02:28:14 this is a hijab. 0.95

02:28:16 I'm a waste man. 0.99

02:28:17 I'm a waste man. 0.65

02:28:18 I'm a waste man. 0.99

02:28:19 It's equivalent to your cowardness. 0.92

02:28:20 Still.

02:28:21 In America.

02:28:22 Now, a waste man is someone...

02:28:23 That's good.

02:28:24 Indirectly.

02:28:25 You're talking about proud bravery.

02:28:28 You say, oh, we're so brave, and then you say, I'm a waste man.

02:28:31 And then you say, what's a waste man? 0.99

02:28:32 I'm a coward. 0.99

02:28:33 Basically, you're putting yourself a coward again. 0.99

02:28:35 I'm learning the road man language. 0.98

02:28:37 In the beauty sense.

02:28:39 A waste man is like a waste of space, right?

02:28:41 A waste of space. 0.55

02:28:42 Someone that doesn't benefit the society.

02:28:44 He doesn't benefit his family. 0.98

02:28:46 A bum, basically. 0.98

02:28:47 Yeah, a bum.

02:28:48 That's the best word for a bum. 1.00

02:28:50 Someone that doesn't benefit anyone and anything around him. 0.99

02:28:53 That's a waste man.

02:28:55 So, when I say I'm a waste man, it's not to humble myself, but in a sense where like,

02:29:01 it's that I could do more, bro.

02:29:04 You could do more.

02:29:06 You could seek more knowledge.

02:29:08 You could do more prayers.

02:29:09 You could do more for the youth.

02:29:11 You see, I don't like all of this talking.

02:29:13 You've seen, you've probably seen some of my talk.

02:29:15 So, you're doing a reaction to it.

02:29:16 Yeah.

02:29:17 Oh, man.

02:29:18 Man.

02:29:19 Which one?

02:29:20 There was a talk I done.

02:29:22 Sneaker was doing a reaction.

02:29:23 This was before he was Muslim. 1.00

02:29:24 So, I can say what I want to say now.

02:29:26 Oh, man.

02:29:27 What was it?

02:29:28 I don't remember what I said.

02:29:29 He wanted to get choked up.

02:29:31 They needed to...

02:29:32 You were referring to him?

02:29:33 No, no, no.

02:29:34 I was just talking.

02:29:35 What did that say?

02:29:36 Something bad?

02:29:37 Yeah.

02:29:38 Yeah.

02:29:39 And then Sneaker was like...

02:29:40 He was doing a reaction to a video of mine talking about the roads.

02:29:44 And then I was like, people are dying.

02:29:46 Yeah.

02:29:47 Like, look at the recent what happened with the guy in the Lamborghini in the post office.

02:29:50 The postman, sorry.

02:29:51 And so on.

02:29:52 And then Sneaker was like, I like the way they talk in London.

02:29:56 And they tried to give like an English accent.

02:29:59 Yeah, yeah.

02:30:00 Yeah, bro.

02:30:01 Yeah, yeah.

02:30:02 I said, yeah?

02:30:03 Alhamdulillah, Allah guides you before I go to you still.

02:30:06 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:30:07 I don't even remember that.

02:30:09 Allah is a love for you still.

02:30:10 That sounds like...

02:30:11 No, I'll bring it up.

02:30:12 I'll bring it up.

02:30:13 Okay.

02:30:14 But...

02:30:15 Bro, what...

02:30:16 From someone that's on social media yourself, what do you feel like is missing from just

02:30:22 your comment section and from people approaching you face to face and speaking to you?

02:30:27 In terms of the deen?

02:30:29 In terms of the youngsters, the youth.

02:30:31 Muslim or no Muslim? 1.00

02:30:33 What is missing?

02:30:34 Yeah.

02:30:35 I think what you and what Warner are doing, I think that that's good.

02:30:40 Like being...

02:30:41 People that connect to non-Muslims and...

02:30:43 Because a lot of sheikhs, they come off with this idea that you're not supposed to confess 1.00

02:30:48 their sins.

02:30:49 And you're supposed to be perfect.

02:30:50 A lot of them are afraid to like smoke shisha on camera or blood off camera.

02:30:53 They might.

02:30:54 I haven't seen that, but that's an example of what I'm talking about.

02:30:56 I think the relatability.

02:30:57 People that talk like them, that act like them.

02:31:00 I think the reason that someone like Sheikh Usman is really effective is because he talks

02:31:03 about his past.

02:31:04 He talks about how he stayed away from the deen and his history with gang violence and

02:31:09 how he came back to them and how it changed his life.

02:31:11 Relatability, bro.

02:31:12 Yeah.

02:31:13 Relatability is a big part.

02:31:14 It's a huge part.

02:31:15 Yeah.

02:31:16 Yeah.

02:31:17 But you get it.

02:31:18 It's a lot.

02:31:19 But you see every single person that actually resonates with the youth all have the same

02:31:23 gift.

02:31:24 And the gift is you have to show them that you're vulnerable just like them.

02:31:29 Do you understand?

02:31:30 Show them that you're vulnerable, bro.

02:31:33 They need to understand what it means, bro.

02:31:34 Yeah, Muhammad. 0.97

02:31:35 You have to show vulnerability.

02:31:36 Yeah.

02:31:37 A hundred percent.

02:31:38 Do you have another offer?

02:31:39 No, no.

02:31:40 I'm okay.

02:31:41 That was nice, but that's enough.

02:31:42 Absolutely.

02:31:43 That's not alcohol, by the way.

02:31:44 Yeah, it's nice.

02:31:45 Blue Lagoon.

02:31:46 Blue Lagoon.

02:31:47 Really?

02:31:48 You want it?

02:31:49 No.

02:31:50 Oh, it's really good.

02:31:51 Try one.

02:31:52 Really?

02:31:53 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:54 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:55 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:56 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:57 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:58 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:31:59 Muhammad, try it. 0.93

02:32:00 What is that?

02:32:01 Blue Lagoon.

02:32:02 You want to try some?

02:32:03 Blue Lagoon.

02:32:04 It's called a mocktail.

02:32:05 Mocktail.

02:32:06 Banyan.

02:32:07 That's right.

02:32:08 He lives a good life already.

02:32:11 It's like drinking from the swimming pool.

02:32:14 This is like, for him, it's below average.

02:32:16 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:32:17 Well, Aki, let me ask you.

02:32:18 What do you think that Muslim influencers could improve on? 0.51

02:32:21 I hate that term, Muslim influencers.

02:32:23 Right. 0.91

02:32:24 What else would you say?

02:32:25 Lehman.

02:32:26 Lehman.

02:32:27 Lehman.

02:32:28 I guess just, you know, Muslims that talk in front of the camera all day long because 1.00

02:32:33 it's very difficult.

02:32:34 You know, in that world, it's just you're signing up to be in the world of shaitan. 0.98

02:32:39 Okay.

02:32:40 So, how could we do a better job and how do you think we misrepresent Islam?

02:32:43 What do you think that we could do better going forward?

02:32:45 You see, someone that's around me that's very, very close to me said this to me, yeah?

02:32:49 Yeah.

02:32:50 The more you are in the public eye, the more you need to do in secret between you and Allah.

02:32:55 Mm-hmm.

02:32:56 Do you understand?

02:32:57 Mm-hmm.

02:32:58 If the things that you're doing in the public eye wouldn't mean nothing, Paul.

02:33:01 Mm-hmm.

02:33:02 If your relationship with Allah is at a minimum.

02:33:04 You understand?

02:33:05 Sure.

02:33:06 There's, there's, there's, you wanna, you wanna work on the, you wanna work on your relationship

02:33:10 with the creation and not the creator.

02:33:12 So, that itself kind of exposes your intentions.

02:33:15 As Umar and Khattab would say, we could judge by what is apparent.

02:33:18 And from what was apparent, actually, everyone is a cloud chaser.

02:33:22 Mm-hmm.

02:33:23 And, even in the Muslims, everyone was good for you until you become better than them. 1.00

02:33:29 Mm-hmm.

02:33:30 Mm-hmm.

02:33:31 Ah, boy, they will support you, they do that, they, yeah, yeah.

02:33:33 The moment they see you surpassed them, nah, boy, that's when this slander and the backbiting

02:33:37 comes in.

02:33:38 Ask every single one of us here, but everyone can tell you this.

02:33:42 That's true, bro.

02:33:43 Look, I mean, the thing is, it's like, it's, you're dealing with, uh, resentment and, uh,

02:33:47 jealousy a lot of the time.

02:33:48 Allahu Akbar.

02:33:49 And we don't know, like, a lot of people would desire fame in it.

02:33:52 Mm-hmm.

02:33:53 So, they'll see people that got it, and a lot of us in this room.

02:33:56 So, Yusuf.

02:33:57 And they'll say, like, okay, well, they'll start attacking you.

02:33:59 And the reason why they're doing it, the motivation they're doing it, is because they

02:34:02 want to be famous.

02:34:03 And you've got what they want.

02:34:04 So, they have to find a reason to attack you.

02:34:07 It's a cheap, but superficial reality.

02:34:10 Mm-hmm.

02:34:11 How do you, how do you, I want to ask all of you that, how do you deal with that?

02:34:14 Because desiring and chasing fame is a form of shirk, I think, in a way, because you

02:34:19 want to be worshipped like, like a God, like God is worshipped.

02:34:22 You know, wanting to be that famous person.

02:34:24 Like, sometimes, you know, that's happened before I've seen it.

02:34:26 People, like, will bow down.

02:34:27 Like, they'll literally perform Suju like in front of you, like you're an idol.

02:34:31 Mm-hmm.

02:34:32 How do you balance that?

02:34:33 Because it's a very fine line, and it's not something that Muslims had to deal with for 0.78

02:34:36 centuries, is this issue of fame.

02:34:40 Well, do you know, it's a very difficult question because, you know, like, you, I think people

02:34:47 are like this, yeah?

02:34:48 And this is in the, usually in the self-help books and stuff.

02:34:50 They say, think win-win, which is the following.

02:34:54 You always ask yourself the question, if you make more money in life, or you get more fame,

02:34:59 or you have more power, those three things in particular.

02:35:03 If you're a strategist about how you kind of distribute those resources, and you want

02:35:09 people to be on your side, whether they're on your team or not, like Muslims and stuff,

02:35:13 you have to share it, and you have to be of benefit to them.

02:35:16 Mm-hmm.

02:35:17 So, how do you do that?

02:35:18 So, for example, with money, right?

02:35:19 If you're making more money, you have to start sharing this money.

02:35:23 Because if you don't share it...

02:35:24 Yeah, breaking bread.

02:35:25 Let me explain what I mean by that.

02:35:27 So, for example, like, let's say you're making 30,000 pounds a year or whatever, and

02:35:30 then you start making 80,000.

02:35:32 Now, people start realizing that you're making more money.

02:35:34 They will...

02:35:35 It's just a natural thing for them to be jealous about that.

02:35:39 Okay?

02:35:40 Now, you have to understand human nature.

02:35:42 That's how human nature works.

02:35:43 They're going to feel that certain way that...

02:35:45 So, they might want to harm you.

02:35:46 They might want to speak bad about you.

02:35:48 They might want to take what you have.

02:35:50 They might want to even remove what you have, whatever it may be.

02:35:53 Unless you make your success their success.

02:35:57 So, for example, if they're a close person to you, if they're your cousin, if they're your

02:36:01 brother, if they're your friend, you bring them in.

02:36:04 You say, listen, this is what's happening, and we're all going to succeed together.

02:36:11 So, it's win-win.

02:36:12 So, now, when you're winning, they're winning.

02:36:14 So, they're less likely to feel jealous and resentful.

02:36:16 Now, that's easy to do with your inner circle, because you can easily just bring them in to financial things.

02:36:22 But what about with the wider community?

02:36:24 You have to provide benefit to the wider community.

02:36:27 So, that if you actually provide real benefit to the wider community, they may say, we don't

02:36:31 like this guy.

02:36:32 We don't like his mannerisms.

02:36:34 I'm pretty sure everybody on this table...

02:36:36 I think he was going to say something funny.

02:36:38 No, with the exception of maybe yourself, because you're less controversial, but everybody

02:36:43 like, you know, who's been famous.

02:36:46 We don't like how he approaches this.

02:36:47 We don't like his mannerisms, whatever, blah, blah, blah.

02:36:49 But, if there's a redeeming quality, which is that, however, he's procuring this benefit

02:36:56 for our community.

02:36:57 So, all of the negatives end up being a positive.

02:36:59 Because he's bringing people to Islam, or because he's relating to the youth.

02:37:03 There's this redeeming quality.

02:37:05 Then, I think they will tolerate us.

02:37:07 If you don't have a redeeming quality, they won't tolerate you.

02:37:10 You're intolerable to the community.

02:37:12 So, I think you have to think win-win.

02:37:14 If you're becoming more successful, don't just think, oh, well, these guys have to work

02:37:17 on their diseases of the hearts, and so on.

02:37:20 That's one way of approaching it.

02:37:21 But you're not going to quash the issue of that.

02:37:23 You have to think win-win.

02:37:24 How do I bring these people?

02:37:25 How do I give them benefit, so that they don't act in such a jealous manner towards

02:37:30 me?

02:37:31 Right.

02:37:32 Whether it's with power, share the power.

02:37:34 Whether it's with money, share the money.

02:37:35 Whether it's with fame, use your fame for a benefit that everyone can accept.

02:37:40 Whether it's raising money for charity.

02:37:42 Because everyone accepts that, if you're using your fame to raise funds for charity,

02:37:47 for example, that okay, this guy's using it and he's at least doing this redeeming

02:37:50 quality.

02:37:51 Or this guy's using it for this purposes.

02:37:52 Do you know what I mean?

02:37:53 Right.

02:37:54 I want to ask all of you about this, but that just reminded me.

02:37:55 I forgot to mention this.

02:37:56 You guys can go to projectiftar.org slash Nico right now for every $2.

02:38:01 Oh, okay.

02:38:02 No, no, no.

02:38:03 That's real.

02:38:04 What we're doing is like, I forgot.

02:38:05 Oh, it's a real one, yeah?

02:38:06 Yeah, no, it's real.

02:38:07 Seriously.

02:38:08 It's not about that.

02:38:09 It's not about that.

02:38:11 I'm being serious.

02:38:12 I forgot to mention it.

02:38:13 He was exactly doing what you were saying.

02:38:15 Yeah, yeah.

02:38:16 I forgot to mention that this whole stream.

02:38:18 Projectiftar.org.

02:38:19 Let him know that he gives back.

02:38:20 Yeah, yeah.

02:38:21 I need to mention that now before we continue.

02:38:23 But we had a long conversation about that, about how to deal with fame.

02:38:26 It doesn't seem like you deal with as many of those issues as maybe we do.

02:38:31 So, the truth is like, for me, I think it depends on the person.

02:38:35 For me, honestly, I despise fame.

02:38:37 But look, there are harmful effects of fame that I'm going to mention now, which I would

02:38:42 struggle with, that everyone would struggle with.

02:38:44 But the side of wanting the people to recognize me when I walk into the room, that's the opposite

02:38:48 of what I want because I'm a very private person.

02:38:50 That's why I don't, people don't know my background, don't know what I said.

02:38:52 I said, I like privacy, right?

02:38:54 I don't like someone I do not know.

02:38:55 Okay, he knows me through social media.

02:38:57 He loves me and all of that, okay?

02:38:59 And love in Islam is important.

02:39:01 But he comes up to you, he already knows you, you don't know them.

02:39:04 But he's approaching you in a way that he already knows you, right?

02:39:06 That's what fame does, right?

02:39:07 He wants to hug you and all of that.

02:39:09 And look, you don't know the brother.

02:39:10 Of course, you have to be humbly humble yourself because you know why they recognize you,

02:39:14 because you're doing something, right?

02:39:15 But for me, I am a very private person.

02:39:17 That's why I never wanted to be there.

02:39:19 Let me ask you a question, bro.

02:39:20 Yeah.

02:39:21 Let me challenge you a little bit.

02:39:22 Go ahead.

02:39:23 If you could press a button that will delete all your social media,

02:39:28 and that it can transfer, like AI can be generated,

02:39:32 your voice changes, your face changes on all of your videos,

02:39:36 you can still have the same benefit, but it's a different person.

02:39:39 Would you press that button?

02:39:40 That's a good question.

02:39:41 Yes.

02:39:42 Would you, yeah?

02:39:43 I would press that button.

02:39:44 Before being on social media,

02:39:50 like if you know some of the brothers who go to the corner,

02:39:53 you can't even speak to them on this.

02:39:54 I didn't want to make a channel.

02:39:56 Because as I said, I don't, I like privacy.

02:39:59 This is true.

02:40:00 This is on you before the interview.

02:40:01 I couldn't find anything about you.

02:40:03 I don't know what to ask you.

02:40:04 I don't even know who you are.

02:40:08 Who is this guy?

02:40:09 How did he get here?

02:40:10 He didn't care.

02:40:11 He didn't care.

02:40:12 He didn't care.

02:40:13 He didn't care.

02:40:14 We did extensive research.

02:40:15 Like what?

02:40:16 Nothing.

02:40:17 Nothing.

02:40:18 There's nothing about you.

02:40:19 That's why there's no reconvenience.

02:40:20 That's why there's no reconvenience.

02:40:21 That's why there's no reconvenience.

02:40:22 That's why there's no reconvenience.

02:40:23 That's why there's no reconvenience.

02:40:24 There's like two speakers on each side of you right now.

02:40:26 So this is because when I say I'm a private person, I mean it.

02:40:29 Oh yeah, you are.

02:40:30 You are

02:40:30 A lot of people don't mean it

02:40:31 But I do actually mean it

02:40:32 Right

02:40:32 So this is

02:40:33 I don't struggle from that aspect

02:40:35 Of wanting people to recognize you

02:40:36 But there are other harmful aspects

02:40:37 The aspects of the control

02:40:39 Sorry

02:40:40 The power you get

02:40:41 With you speaking

02:40:41 People listen to you now

02:40:42 Yeah

02:40:43 So you start thinking

02:40:44 That no

02:40:44 You're a person of authority now

02:40:46 Who are you to disagree with me

02:40:48 Like

02:40:49 Someone comes on

02:40:50 Live stream

02:40:50 Brother

02:40:51 You said this is wrong

02:40:52 Who are you to disagree with me

02:40:53 What did you do in your life

02:40:55 You start

02:40:55 Building

02:40:56 Ego

02:40:57 Ego

02:40:58 You start building

02:40:59 This is the biggest harmful aspect

02:41:00 I would say

02:41:01 The aspect of faith

02:41:02 It's a good point 0.91

02:41:02 Is you trying to

02:41:04 You know have

02:41:04 Like self-adorment

02:41:06 Loving yourself

02:41:07 Thinking you are

02:41:08 Above other people

02:41:09 Which then

02:41:10 You would demean the other people

02:41:11 Like for example

02:41:12 And I've said this

02:41:13 And I would say this publicly

02:41:14 I never have any problem

02:41:17 With any Muslim 0.99

02:41:18 On any social media platform

02:41:20 To make a video

02:41:21 Correcting me

02:41:22 On something that I said

02:41:22 That was wrong

02:41:23 As long as he knows

02:41:25 This is publicly

02:41:25 He doesn't have to

02:41:26 Message me

02:41:27 He doesn't have to

02:41:28 And I'm saying it here

02:41:28 For everyone

02:41:29 A lie for people to know

02:41:30 I don't care

02:41:31 Because look

02:41:32 Okay

02:41:32 If he's doing it

02:41:33 Either way

02:41:34 It's a win-win situation

02:41:35 For me

02:41:35 If he is doing it

02:41:36 Out of jealousy

02:41:37 I will have my right

02:41:38 On the day of judgment

02:41:39 Right

02:41:39 If he's doing it

02:41:40 Out of goodness

02:41:41 Then he's correcting me

02:41:42 He's benefiting me

02:41:42 I'll come back

02:41:43 I'll say

02:41:43 His brother corrected me

02:41:44 He's wrong

02:41:44 I want my safety

02:41:45 On the day of judgment

02:41:46 Right

02:41:46 So I don't have issue

02:41:47 With this happening

02:41:48 The problem is

02:41:50 As I said

02:41:50 This is the harmful aspect

02:41:51 Of fame

02:41:52 That I noticed

02:41:53 Is that you start having

02:41:54 You know what

02:41:55 Comments

02:41:55 You go on my channel

02:41:57 Maybe other brothers

02:41:58 Channels as well

02:41:59 99.9%

02:42:00 Of people praising you

02:42:01 Right

02:42:01 Sometimes people

02:42:02 Over praising you

02:42:03 And that can have

02:42:04 A huge effect

02:42:05 On your heart

02:42:06 Because

02:42:06 Okay

02:42:07 We are human beings

02:42:08 In the end

02:42:08 People continue to praise you

02:42:09 Continue to praise you

02:42:10 Continue to praise you

02:42:11 Don't say you will not

02:42:11 Have an effect on me

02:42:12 Like I don't have

02:42:13 Who are you

02:42:13 You're a human being

02:42:14 Right

02:42:15 So this is

02:42:15 I think

02:42:16 Is the biggest

02:42:16 The harmful effect

02:42:17 Then you start

02:42:18 Doing things

02:42:18 Yeah

02:42:19 Wanting also people

02:42:20 To praise the actions

02:42:21 That you're doing

02:42:21 Not necessarily recognize you

02:42:23 So it's not this aspect

02:42:24 Of fame

02:42:24 But to always be right

02:42:26 Always to be the correct person

02:42:28 Always

02:42:28 No one is going to refute me

02:42:30 No one is going to be above me

02:42:31 You're going to listen to me

02:42:32 Because I know what I'm talking about

02:42:33 Right

02:42:33 These aspects

02:42:34 I find the most problematic aspects

02:42:36 And this is what I've noticed

02:42:37 Right

02:42:37 The brothers for example

02:42:39 Like here

02:42:39 In the UK 0.52

02:42:40 And I've noticed

02:42:41 With them personally

02:42:42 Right

02:42:42 When I sat down

02:42:43 One to one level

02:42:44 And brought evidences

02:42:45 Like brother

02:42:46 You've done this

02:42:46 Which is wrong

02:42:47 And I did it privately

02:42:48 And the brother

02:42:49 You know

02:42:50 He says

02:42:50 Yes this is wrong

02:42:51 Okay I'm going to remove it

02:42:52 When I'm home

02:42:52 Then the thing is still there

02:42:53 In fact someone disagreed with me

02:42:56 To the extent

02:42:56 One time

02:42:57 I'm not going to mention

02:42:58 Who this person is

02:42:58 There was something he mentioned

02:43:01 He said

02:43:01 About one

02:43:03 I don't even want to mention it

02:43:04 Because I don't want him

02:43:05 To recognize the exact thing

02:43:06 But

02:43:06 He said something

02:43:07 He said

02:43:07 Prophet X didn't do X

02:43:09 And I said

02:43:10 Brother this is

02:43:11 Not correct

02:43:11 Because he said

02:43:12 You Christians have this

02:43:13 We don't have it

02:43:13 But we do have that same thing

02:43:15 That you were criticizing

02:43:16 Right

02:43:16 So you have to be careful

02:43:17 About what you're criticizing

02:43:18 Then I provided to him

02:43:20 He kept arguing

02:43:20 Arguing

02:43:20 Until I sent him

02:43:21 A verse of the Quran

02:43:22 Where it explicitly

02:43:23 Opposes what he's saying

02:43:24 Literally

02:43:25 Word for word

02:43:26 Then he started saying

02:43:27 Ah

02:43:27 Okay

02:43:28 Okay

02:43:28 And then he didn't

02:43:29 Clarify

02:43:30 He didn't remove the video

02:43:31 He didn't do anything

02:43:31 So then it becomes

02:43:32 This problem

02:43:33 Right

02:43:33 Because I'm engaging

02:43:34 With non-Muslims a lot 1.00

02:43:35 I'm always

02:43:36 I have the truth

02:43:37 So I'm winning the argument

02:43:38 So I start thinking

02:43:39 Now that I win

02:43:40 Every argument out there

02:43:41 No one can correct me now

02:43:42 You know

02:43:42 Now I have the truth

02:43:43 I'm correcting everything

02:43:44 That I say

02:43:44 What I say

02:43:45 Is the absolute truth

02:43:46 This becomes

02:43:47 The biggest issue

02:43:48 I say

02:43:48 This is the issue

02:43:49 Of ego

02:43:49 And the jealousy

02:43:50 Is there

02:43:51 There are groups

02:43:51 And I've left

02:43:52 Many of these groups

02:43:53 Before

02:43:53 Certain people

02:43:54 The brothers

02:43:55 Doing da'a 0.90

02:43:56 Or this or that

02:43:56 And they would be

02:43:57 Criticizing other da'a

02:43:58 Or other people

02:44:00 In that group

02:44:01 Okay

02:44:01 A group of 60 people

02:44:02 That person is not there

02:44:03 And you're talking

02:44:03 About him behind his back

02:44:05 For what reason

02:44:05 And he would do

02:44:07 Something good

02:44:08 Right

02:44:08 He would do something good

02:44:09 They're not going to

02:44:10 Mention the good

02:44:10 They would look at

02:44:11 The .1 second

02:44:12 Of whatever bad thing

02:44:14 Was in the video

02:44:14 And all of them

02:44:15 In the group

02:44:15 Would be

02:44:15 Oh

02:44:15 This is very harmful

02:44:16 This is very bad

02:44:17 Yeah

02:44:17 How could he do this

02:44:18 This and that

02:44:19 And they would be

02:44:19 Talking about it

02:44:20 And this is a sad

02:44:21 Sad reality

02:44:21 Honestly

02:44:22 It is a sad reality

02:44:23 That yeah

02:44:24 With fame

02:44:24 You need to understand

02:44:25 You are still

02:44:26 A person who came 1.00

02:44:27 From a sperm drop 0.58

02:44:28 If it left 0.98

02:44:29 It will start to stink

02:44:30 This is the truth

02:44:31 This is what you are

02:44:32 As a human being

02:44:32 Where do you come from

02:44:33 Really sperms

02:44:34 Yeah

02:44:34 It's a way to start stinking

02:44:36 I'll tell you that 0.81

02:44:36 So

02:44:38 Okay

02:44:39 You're saying

02:44:40 That's a good point

02:44:41 What were you thinking

02:44:41 No look

02:44:42 I agree with you

02:44:43 Fully

02:44:43 Wholeheartedly

02:44:44 And I feel like

02:44:45 If anybody

02:44:46 You see

02:44:47 We live in a time

02:44:47 And age

02:44:48 Where everybody wants

02:44:49 Their voices

02:44:50 To be heard

02:44:51 But it depends

02:44:52 On what type of

02:44:53 Audience

02:44:54 Are hearing that voice

02:44:55 So I'll give you

02:44:56 A prime example

02:44:57 If I make mistakes

02:44:59 I would love to be

02:44:59 Corrected

02:45:00 That's according to

02:45:01 The Quran

02:45:01 And the Sunnah

02:45:02 I'm more than happy to

02:45:04 I'm a layman

02:45:06 At the end of the day

02:45:06 Not an imam

02:45:07 Not a scholar 1.00

02:45:09 I'm just that guy

02:45:11 I make mistakes

02:45:12 A waste man

02:45:13 No no no 0.57

02:45:14 No no

02:45:16 Wait wait

02:45:18 Wait wait

02:45:19 Wait wait

02:45:21 Wait wait

02:45:21 I'm the only best

02:45:26 I'm learning the lingo

02:45:29 My brother

02:45:29 No no

02:45:30 A layman

02:45:31 A layman

02:45:32 Yeah

02:45:32 But like what you said

02:45:35 Your question was

02:45:36 Nico

02:45:37 How do you deal with it

02:45:38 When you're the one

02:45:39 That's like

02:45:39 Being attacked

02:45:40 And being criticized

02:45:41 But the best form

02:45:43 Of way to deal

02:45:44 With it

02:45:44 Is silence

02:45:45 Just so

02:45:46 Oh they made a video

02:45:49 Well I haven't even

02:45:50 Come across it

02:45:51 Don't care about it

02:45:52 This is something

02:45:52 I got told by

02:45:53 A very very good

02:45:54 Friend of mine

02:45:55 Just ignore it bro

02:45:57 Sometimes I do feel

02:45:58 Like I need to say something

02:46:00 I need to

02:46:01 Yeah

02:46:01 To be honest bro

02:46:03 I know this is going to sound

02:46:05 A bit weird

02:46:05 I've been doing this

02:46:07 They call it shadow work

02:46:10 In psychotherapy

02:46:13 Where you

02:46:14 So I've become

02:46:15 Very critical of myself

02:46:17 And I'll be honest with you

02:46:18 So you say crippled

02:46:19 Cricket

02:46:20 Oh but

02:46:20 So like

02:46:21 If I were to speak to myself

02:46:22 Like if I was somebody else

02:46:24 And go deep into my psyche

02:46:26 And ask to what extent

02:46:27 Do you actually care about fame

02:46:28 I would not ever say

02:46:30 That I don't care about it at all

02:46:31 Even though I know

02:46:33 That there's some negative parts of it

02:46:34 But I think that would be a lie

02:46:35 I want to be honest with myself

02:46:36 Because when I press that button

02:46:39 I wouldn't have that button

02:46:40 Oh trust me

02:46:41 I'll put the one

02:46:42 The button

02:46:43 So there's aspects of fame

02:46:46 I don't like

02:46:47 But there's aspects of it

02:46:48 Which I do like

02:46:49 Just like money

02:46:50 There's aspects of it

02:46:51 Which I don't like

02:46:51 And there's aspects of it

02:46:52 Which I do like

02:46:52 Just like power

02:46:53 If I were to remove all fame

02:46:55 All money

02:46:55 All power

02:46:56 I would become

02:46:56 Because I would have no power

02:46:59 I would have nothing

02:46:59 And Ghazali mentions that actually

02:47:01 In Akhir Al-Muddin 0.94

02:47:02 Very interesting

02:47:03 He said it's not right

02:47:04 To think that money is not good

02:47:05 For example

02:47:06 He's saying anything

02:47:08 Which is rivalability

02:47:09 Is something which is naturally

02:47:11 Going to be something

02:47:12 Human beings like

02:47:13 So you have to be

02:47:14 Like for me

02:47:15 I would say look

02:47:15 When it comes to fame

02:47:18 In particular

02:47:19 My relationship with it

02:47:19 Is as follows

02:47:20 Right

02:47:20 I acknowledge my weakness

02:47:24 To want to be known

02:47:26 To some extent

02:47:27 But I have to tame it

02:47:29 And I also acknowledge

02:47:30 My weakness

02:47:31 To want to correct myself

02:47:32 For my own weakness

02:47:33 Or you can call it

02:47:35 A neutral feeling

02:47:36 This one

02:47:36 Which is that

02:47:37 I love myself

02:47:39 So if someone attacks me

02:47:40 Makes a video about me

02:47:42 And it gets a million views

02:47:44 Sorry to say

02:47:45 And he's attacking me

02:47:47 I'm going to feel

02:47:48 More strongly about that

02:47:49 Than if someone makes

02:47:49 A video about you

02:47:50 Sorry to say

02:47:52 Yeah yeah yeah

02:47:52 Of course

02:47:53 I'm just being told

02:47:54 You're honest

02:47:54 No no that's the truth

02:47:55 You're self first

02:47:55 I will be

02:47:56 Like let's say for example

02:47:57 On a scale of 1 to 10

02:47:59 If someone made a video

02:48:00 About attacking me

02:48:01 I might be irritated to that

02:48:03 If you got a million views

02:48:04 If you get 10,000

02:48:05 I won't even look at it

02:48:05 Honestly if you get

02:48:06 Certain numbers

02:48:07 I don't even look at them

02:48:08 Yeah

02:48:08 Because I need

02:48:09 A higher threshold now

02:48:10 Of criticism

02:48:11 Before 10,000

02:48:12 Was a big number for me

02:48:14 But now

02:48:15 I need maybe

02:48:15 Like 50,000

02:48:17 100,000

02:48:17 And I start looking

02:48:18 At the video

02:48:18 I'm being seriously

02:48:19 Nice one up

02:48:23 You know

02:48:27 No but I'm saying

02:48:28 The threshold of criticism

02:48:29 Has increased

02:48:30 Right right right

02:48:30 But if you made

02:48:31 The same video about you

02:48:32 I'm saying like

02:48:33 I would

02:48:33 If I'm being totally honest

02:48:34 I would care more

02:48:35 Because I love me

02:48:35 More than I love you

02:48:36 Right as simple as

02:48:37 I love me

02:48:39 More than I love you

02:48:39 Really

02:48:39 However if someone

02:48:41 Made a video about you

02:48:42 I might be irritated

02:48:43 And if it's completely oppressive

02:48:44 I might be irritated

02:48:44 Like 30%

02:48:46 40%

02:48:46 If you made it about me

02:48:48 I'll be irritated

02:48:49 80 or 90%

02:48:50 That's a big difference

02:48:51 Now

02:48:52 What do I do as a human being

02:48:54 How do I respond to that

02:48:55 Firstly I say

02:48:56 How much has this irritated me

02:48:57 How much has this affected the public

02:48:59 For my own

02:49:01 Mental health sake 0.96

02:49:02 I would say

02:49:03 If it irritated me so much

02:49:05 Let me respond

02:49:05 Sorry to say

02:49:06 Because why should I

02:49:08 Why should I have all this resentment

02:49:09 Inside me

02:49:10 Let me respond

02:49:10 And then I feel better about myself

02:49:12 After I respond

02:49:12 And this might sound

02:49:14 Completely un-Islamic 1.00

02:49:15 But I'm doing it for me

02:49:17 I might not even be doing it

02:49:19 For the Islam

02:49:20 And as bad as that might sound

02:49:22 I'm doing this

02:49:24 Particular action

02:49:25 To defend myself

02:49:26 So I can feel better

02:49:28 But Mohammed as a Muslim 0.97

02:49:29 You should defend your own

02:49:31 You should defend your image

02:49:33 Let's just say

02:49:34 Someone said to me

02:49:35 This person

02:49:36 Committed this and that

02:49:38 Thing

02:49:38 And it's false

02:49:39 What they said about me

02:49:40 Let's say this person

02:49:42 He

02:49:43 Some scans say

02:49:45 That you know

02:49:45 Unfortunately

02:49:47 He done this and that

02:49:48 Or the other

02:49:48 Sneak

02:49:49 Or whatever

02:49:50 It really doesn't benefit

02:49:52 You could argue

02:49:52 You might decide

02:49:56 You know what

02:49:56 This is hurting me

02:49:57 And this is

02:49:58 I want to

02:49:59 Because I love myself

02:50:00 Because if I didn't love myself

02:50:02 I wouldn't feel the pain

02:50:02 So I would actually respond

02:50:05 Just because

02:50:06 I feel like

02:50:06 You know

02:50:06 My honour is worth protecting

02:50:08 For me

02:50:08 For my own sake

02:50:09 So

02:50:10 That's the relationship

02:50:11 I'm trying to be as honest as possible

02:50:13 With myself

02:50:14 On these matters

02:50:15 Because I don't want to be fake

02:50:17 You know

02:50:18 It's true that sometimes

02:50:20 If I cared so much

02:50:23 About everything that affects Islam

02:50:25 I'd be looking at all the videos

02:50:27 That talk about Prophet Muhammad 1.00

02:50:29 And talk about Allah

02:50:30 And respond to those

02:50:32 I wouldn't even look at the videos

02:50:33 That talk about Muhammad 1.00

02:50:33 This is a bit extreme though

02:50:35 So the thing

02:50:36 The thing is this

02:50:37 Right

02:50:37 The question is

02:50:39 Let's say from an Islamic point of view

02:50:40 Right

02:50:41 Is it the right thing

02:50:42 For it to be me first

02:50:44 Responding

02:50:45 Because the thing is

02:50:45 When you say

02:50:46 Someone made a video about you as well

02:50:47 There are many

02:50:48 Many things to be looked at

02:50:49 First

02:50:49 The content they're making

02:50:50 Is it actually

02:50:52 Correct or incorrect

02:50:53 Because you know 1.00

02:50:53 A lot of people are ignorant 1.00

02:50:54 They incorrectly correct you 1.00

02:50:56 You know

02:50:56 So this is

02:50:57 Jahl Murekkah 0.99

02:50:57 Compounded ignorance

02:50:58 And then you have

02:51:00 The mannerisms

02:51:01 In which they corrected you

02:51:02 Right

02:51:03 The okay

02:51:03 Like

02:51:04 The Sunna way of correcting you 0.89

02:51:06 Okay

02:51:06 Saying this person has benefits

02:51:07 Mentioning his benefits

02:51:08 Saying that this brother

02:51:09 This is a very small thing

02:51:11 For example

02:51:11 In a right

02:51:11 Correct way

02:51:12 Manorful way

02:51:13 Or someone who comes out

02:51:14 Okay 1.00

02:51:14 This ignorant guy 1.00

02:51:15 He doesn't know 1.00

02:51:16 He's talking about

02:51:16 Look what

02:51:16 These people

02:51:17 Okay

02:51:18 This is a different way

02:51:19 Different way

02:51:20 Which would increase

02:51:20 Your kind of want

02:51:21 To respond as well

02:51:22 Right

02:51:22 Of the way

02:51:23 They have to do it

02:51:23 But the thing is

02:51:24 If they make a video

02:51:25 And what the content is correct

02:51:28 Meaning what they're correcting you

02:51:29 Upon is correct

02:51:29 Yeah

02:51:30 Then it's just

02:51:30 You buy the bullet

02:51:31 I was going back and forth

02:51:33 With a particular group

02:51:34 I don't want to mention today

02:51:35 Because I don't want to get

02:51:35 In trouble

02:51:36 They produce a PDF

02:51:37 Catch me

02:51:37 I'm sorry

02:51:38 And this guy

02:51:40 He produced 600 pages on me

02:51:41 Right

02:51:42 Yeah

02:51:42 600 pages

02:51:43 Refutation

02:51:44 Humiliation

02:51:45 You guys know who it is

02:51:46 And

02:51:47 And unfortunately

02:51:48 I looked through

02:51:49 Some of those pages

02:51:50 600

02:51:50 Yeah

02:51:51 600 pages

02:51:52 The same size of Quran 0.97

02:51:53 Quran is 600 pages

02:51:54 Anyway

02:51:56 So I was looking through them

02:51:57 And some of the things

02:51:59 That this guy was saying

02:51:59 Was true 1.00

02:52:00 Like some of the

02:52:02 Corrections

02:52:02 They looked at my

02:52:04 Speakers Corner videos

02:52:05 And they got the timestamps

02:52:06 And I made mistakes

02:52:07 About Aqeedah

02:52:08 About Hadithah

02:52:09 And they found them

02:52:10 And like

02:52:11 In a way I was thinking

02:52:12 I was feeling two ways about it

02:52:14 I didn't like it

02:52:15 From my perspective

02:52:15 But in a way

02:52:16 It's like

02:52:16 I would pay someone

02:52:17 To do this

02:52:18 Because I would like

02:52:18 Someone to fix my mistake

02:52:19 I had to come out

02:52:21 And say

02:52:21 Okay well you know

02:52:22 He was right

02:52:22 It was very embarrassing

02:52:23 Because I was going

02:52:24 It was really heated

02:52:25 Back and forth

02:52:25 Like we were humiliating

02:52:27 Each other bro

02:52:27 Like I was humiliating him

02:52:29 He was humiliating me

02:52:30 And then I had to come out

02:52:31 And say well you know

02:52:31 He was right about this and that

02:52:32 Let's continue now

02:52:34 It's bad

02:52:35 I've noticed one thing

02:52:36 Right

02:52:37 I've had this

02:52:38 Before

02:52:38 One Christian

02:52:40 Who came

02:52:40 Without mentioning name

02:52:41 Who came on my live stream

02:52:42 This and that

02:52:43 He tried to do something

02:52:44 Then it didn't work out

02:52:46 But I didn't want to give him

02:52:47 The recognition

02:52:48 Which is another problem

02:52:49 If you remind me of

02:52:50 Giving recognitions 1.00

02:52:51 To the nonsensical idiot 1.00

02:52:53 Disbelievers 1.00

02:52:54 If you remind me 0.96

02:52:55 You'll come back to that

02:52:55 Because it's a very important point

02:52:57 Which made an issue

02:52:58 Right

02:52:58 The individual

02:52:59 He joined

02:52:59 Okay I just responded

02:53:01 To his questions

02:53:01 Like done

02:53:02 Conversations over

02:53:03 Removed him from the stream

02:53:04 Continued my dawah

02:53:05 Stream's done

02:53:06 Right

02:53:07 He tried to take the clip

02:53:08 And upload it

02:53:09 Of course

02:53:10 Copyrighted him

02:53:11 You're not going to get

02:53:11 Famous of me

02:53:12 Right

02:53:12 I'm going to use my name

02:53:13 With the title

02:53:13 Right

02:53:14 Or express it

02:53:15 Right

02:53:16 And then try

02:53:18 And then try

02:53:19 To get fame

02:53:20 Using my name

02:53:20 Right

02:53:20 It's not going to happen

02:53:21 Trying to get

02:53:22 Muslim audience

02:53:22 To your Christian channel

02:53:23 Right 1.00

02:53:23 It's idiotic 1.00

02:53:26 Right 1.00

02:53:26 But the thing is

02:53:26 I want to talk about

02:53:27 Is this

02:53:28 Is I ignored him

02:53:29 He made three or four streams

02:53:30 About me later on

02:53:31 Talking about the thing

02:53:32 He uploaded another video

02:53:34 And he reacted to

02:53:34 I also cooperated

02:53:35 He got more angry

02:53:36 Right

02:53:36 Then he made four streams

02:53:38 Talking about me

02:53:39 And the thing is

02:53:40 What ended up happening

02:53:40 Tactically

02:53:41 He introduced me

02:53:42 To his Christian audience

02:53:43 Oh wow

02:53:44 And none of my Muslim audience 1.00

02:53:46 Went to his channel

02:53:47 And we ended up winning

02:53:49 Right

02:53:49 But the thing I want to mention

02:53:51 Is this

02:53:51 Is 0.88

02:53:51 Like what he said

02:53:52 What he said about

02:53:54 Not responding

02:53:55 That's why

02:53:58 You know the poet

02:53:58 Like

02:53:59 But this is

02:53:59 Not Imam Shafi'i 0.96

02:54:01 Right

02:54:01 The poet

02:54:02 He said 1.00

02:54:02 That the ignorant person 1.00

02:54:07 He speaks to me 0.99

02:54:08 Very rudely

02:54:08 Is that

02:54:09 Different Shafi'i 1.00

02:54:10 Yeah

02:54:11 There's one

02:54:11 Who's a poet

02:54:12 He has a diwan 0.67

02:54:13 So not the Imam 0.99

02:54:15 But the Imam 0.96

02:54:16 Had the diwan 0.99

02:54:16 As well

02:54:17 No that's a different Shafi'i

02:54:18 There's two

02:54:18 One which is a poet

02:54:19 And the Imam 0.53

02:54:20 That's the case

02:54:21 Oh wow

02:54:21 Good that you talk with him

02:54:22 Yeah

02:54:22 So he says 0.99

02:54:23 The ignorant person 0.99

02:54:27 Speaks to me 1.00

02:54:28 Very rudely

02:54:28 Then I hate to respond to him

02:54:30 He increases 0.98

02:54:35 In his ignorance

02:54:36 And I increase

02:54:36 In forbearance

02:54:37 But like the poet

02:54:38 Also said

02:54:38 Yes

02:54:39 But let me finish it first

02:54:40 Let me finish it

02:54:44 Because the last part

02:54:45 He says 0.99

02:54:49 If the ignorant person speaks 1.00

02:54:53 Do not respond to him 1.00

02:54:54 It's better than you respond to him

02:54:57 That you remain silent

02:54:58 If you speak

02:55:01 You've given him what he wanted

02:55:02 If you leave him 1.00

02:55:05 He'll die 0.99

02:55:06 In suffocation 0.97

02:55:07 He is trying

02:55:08 To get some sort of a reaction

02:55:10 He wants ascension

02:55:11 Yeah

02:55:11 He wants 600 pages about you

02:55:13 That's a love letter

02:55:14 Exactly

02:55:14 And now there's a back and forth

02:55:16 Shakespeare

02:55:17 And now there's a back and forth

02:55:19 Not only there's a back and forth

02:55:19 You've got to see who it is though

02:55:20 Strategically

02:55:21 If the person

02:55:22 Let's say for example

02:55:23 Let's say Joe Rogan

02:55:24 Attacks Nico

02:55:25 Copiously

02:55:27 It's different

02:55:27 Yeah absolutely

02:55:28 Now it makes sense

02:55:29 For Nico to respond

02:55:30 Because he wins

02:55:30 From that interaction

02:55:32 Exactly

02:55:32 That's an important point

02:55:33 That's why that person

02:55:34 Had like

02:55:35 60,000

02:55:36 70

02:55:36 Nobody basically

02:55:38 They're looking

02:55:39 From a social media

02:55:39 It's better to just ignore that

02:55:40 Exactly

02:55:41 So the thing is

02:55:42 If I respond

02:55:44 This is what ends up to happen

02:55:45 Now what you said

02:55:47 Is the key point

02:55:47 It becomes a battle of the ego

02:55:49 Because you said

02:55:50 It's about me

02:55:51 And he will say

02:55:52 It's about me

02:55:53 So he will make a video

02:55:54 Responding to you

02:55:54 You will make a video

02:55:55 And this is happening

02:55:55 In the Muslim world now 1.00

02:55:56 I don't know if you know

02:55:57 Now we

02:55:58 They're doing some bugabars

02:55:59 I've done bugabars

02:56:00 Oh you're part of that

02:56:01 Okay

02:56:02 Did you not see that

02:56:03 No no no

02:56:03 I don't keep

02:56:05 I don't keep

02:56:06 It was a very fine

02:56:07 Response

02:56:08 I know I didn't keep

02:56:09 But there is

02:56:10 This is my point

02:56:12 There's so many

02:56:13 There's so many

02:56:13 It becomes a battle of ego

02:56:15 Right

02:56:15 This person keeps making a video

02:56:16 With that one

02:56:17 Okay

02:56:18 I actually have

02:56:19 Yeah but

02:56:23 You see the point

02:56:25 And then what happens

02:56:26 You end up

02:56:29 Leaving you

02:56:29 Right

02:56:33 And we end up

02:56:34 Confusing the general masses

02:56:35 Look

02:56:35 Brother

02:56:36 You said something about me

02:56:37 Right

02:56:37 I'm not in

02:56:39 Controversy

02:56:40 I've been in the space

02:56:41 For like what

02:56:42 Two three years now

02:56:43 Or four years

02:56:44 Whatever

02:56:44 How many years

02:56:44 Yeah

02:56:45 I'm not into controversy

02:56:46 But what I end up doing

02:56:47 By the way

02:56:47 When I was in two three years

02:56:48 I wasn't into controversy

02:56:49 Now you're going to

02:56:51 Cross the bridge

02:56:52 No no wait

02:56:52 It's bad

02:56:53 It's bad

02:56:54 When you reach

02:56:56 A certain threshold

02:56:56 The controversy follows you

02:56:57 No no

02:56:57 I want to say something

02:56:59 I want to say something

02:56:59 Something that's important

02:57:00 I was mentioning

02:57:01 About this idea

02:57:02 Is I end up dealing

02:57:03 With the aftermath

02:57:04 Because the people

02:57:06 Don't put me

02:57:06 On either side

02:57:07 So they end up

02:57:08 Coming to me

02:57:08 Should I take

02:57:09 The position of person X

02:57:10 Or should I take

02:57:11 The position of person Z

02:57:12 And both answers are wrong

02:57:13 Because in most cases

02:57:14 Sadly

02:57:15 Both of the positions are wrong

02:57:16 And there is a middle opinion

02:57:17 That you should take 0.76

02:57:18 As a Muslim

02:57:18 Right

02:57:19 So sadly

02:57:20 There's a lot of people

02:57:20 Who are outside of this

02:57:22 Issues

02:57:22 They end up dealing

02:57:23 With the aftermath

02:57:24 And they affect

02:57:25 The harm

02:57:26 That happens to the layman

02:57:27 A lot of the people

02:57:28 Who do these responses

02:57:28 Don't notice

02:57:29 Because I deal with the people

02:57:30 On the street a lot more

02:57:31 I deal with the lay public 0.98

02:57:32 A lot more

02:57:33 I do a lot more streams

02:57:34 So I see the effect

02:57:35 They end up getting confused

02:57:36 Hot

02:57:37 Like proper confused

02:57:38 Right

02:57:38 You're right about that

02:57:39 And the issues

02:57:40 Where people disagree

02:57:41 Usually it's a very

02:57:42 Intricate detailed issue

02:57:44 So they don't know

02:57:44 What's going on

02:57:45 Why is this person

02:57:46 Refuting this person

02:57:46 But they end up

02:57:47 Becoming cheerleaders

02:57:48 I love this person

02:57:50 I'm his follower

02:57:50 So I agree with him

02:57:52 On whatever he says

02:57:53 And the other person

02:57:54 Was following the other person

02:57:55 I love this person

02:57:55 He's my role model

02:57:56 Whatever he says

02:57:57 I don't understand what you say

02:57:58 I'm going to support them

02:57:59 Because I love them

02:58:00 And he ends up becoming Muslims 0.99

02:58:02 Fighting each other

02:58:03 Battles

02:58:03 Cursing mother and father

02:58:04 Collecting mistakes

02:58:05 So you see

02:58:06 Why am I talking about

02:58:08 Like this remaining quiet

02:58:10 Because one of my main teachers

02:58:11 Or one of my teachers

02:58:12 In Egypt

02:58:13 He was attacked by that group

02:58:15 That we were talking about before

02:58:16 I'm sure he was

02:58:17 For almost like

02:58:18 For almost 20 years

02:58:19 Subhanallah

02:58:20 And he never made a single response

02:58:21 To them by name

02:58:22 Subhanallah

02:58:25 Do you know what happens

02:58:25 This in the sheikh 0.98

02:58:27 I'm talking about

02:58:28 Every single person

02:58:29 Of the lay public in Egypt

02:58:30 Loves him

02:58:31 No one knows about

02:58:33 All of this

02:58:33 Refutation of this

02:58:35 Go to the lay public

02:58:36 They will say to you

02:58:37 He's like a father too

02:58:38 Right

02:58:39 Especially the people

02:58:39 In the past right

02:58:40 Because now he's

02:58:41 Very old in age

02:58:42 May Allah preserve him

02:58:43 Right

02:58:43 So this is the thing

02:58:45 We don't need to mention names

02:58:48 Don't get us in trouble please

02:58:50 So the thing is this

02:58:52 Why did he have that

02:58:54 Because the lay public

02:58:55 They look at you

02:58:57 Especially if they respect you

02:58:59 They look at you

02:59:00 And they look at that

02:59:01 As petty behavior

02:59:01 This person I respect

02:59:03 Why is he going back and forth

02:59:04 With another Muslim 1.00

02:59:04 They're not going to look 0.52

02:59:06 At the details

02:59:06 He's right

02:59:07 He's wrong

02:59:07 They don't understand

02:59:08 Most of them

02:59:08 They just look

02:59:09 Okay these are two Muslims

02:59:10 They're supposed to be

02:59:11 I respect them

02:59:12 Because they're pushing

02:59:12 Islam forward

02:59:13 You know they don't

02:59:14 They don't know the real us

02:59:15 You know what Allah knows about us

02:59:16 They think that we're very good

02:59:17 And this is what they think

02:59:18 Right

02:59:18 So okay this person

02:59:20 That I respect

02:59:21 And he's supposed to be

02:59:22 Supporting Islam

02:59:24 And brotherhood

02:59:24 And this and that

02:59:25 He's talking about

02:59:26 This other person

02:59:26 All of these people

02:59:27 Let me ignore all of them

02:59:28 And I heard this a lot

02:59:29 I've stopped listening

02:59:30 To all of these people

02:59:31 Because of this petty

02:59:33 Back and forth

02:59:34 That he's thinking

02:59:34 So I think

02:59:36 The childish aspect

02:59:37 Is not only

02:59:38 So is your policy

02:59:38 Not to engage with anyone

02:59:39 By name

02:59:40 If someone

02:59:41 My policy

02:59:42 Or my channel

02:59:42 I don't mention usually

02:59:43 People by name

02:59:44 But assuming someone

02:59:46 Makes a video about me

02:59:46 It's one of two things

02:59:48 The person made

02:59:49 His point was correct 0.87

02:59:50 Yeah

02:59:51 His point was correct 0.87

02:59:52 And then I would say

02:59:53 Yeah this person is right

02:59:54 I'll say

02:59:55 Jazakallah khair

02:59:56 For correcting me

02:59:56 Sure

02:59:57 Even if he said it badly

02:59:58 Jazakallah khair

02:59:58 Have you ever had to make

02:59:59 Any retractions

03:00:00 Not yet

03:00:01 But if it happens

03:00:03 If it happens

03:00:05 Only I remember

03:00:06 Only one time

03:00:07 Oh you already know

03:00:08 Inshallah

03:00:09 I remember only one

03:00:11 But it was not about

03:00:11 Islam was about 0.97

03:00:12 Something to do with the book

03:00:13 Brother Farid corrected

03:00:14 To mention him

03:00:15 By name as well

03:00:16 He first he spoke

03:00:17 To some of the brothers

03:00:18 And then

03:00:18 Yeah and then

03:00:19 Some of the brothers

03:00:20 They connected him

03:00:21 With me this and that

03:00:21 And then he corrected me

03:00:23 On something to do

03:00:23 With manuscripts

03:00:25 Right

03:00:25 Oh he's very good at that

03:00:26 Yeah yeah

03:00:26 Because this is his field 0.90

03:00:27 Like his speciality

03:00:28 So I mentioned some manuscripts

03:00:29 Which were not necessarily available

03:00:31 To do with hadith etc

03:00:32 So he corrected me

03:00:33 So I removed that

03:00:33 From the video

03:00:34 And corrected it

03:00:35 Right

03:00:35 So there is one time

03:00:36 I remember this happening

03:00:37 From the brothers

03:00:38 But generally

03:00:38 Another time as well

03:00:40 Yeah I had another brother

03:00:41 But he

03:00:41 But it was

03:00:42 He remembers

03:00:42 Yeah but this other time

03:00:46 You have to make it

03:00:46 Your fair share

03:00:47 With your

03:00:48 Retraction as well

03:00:49 Isn't it

03:00:50 Sometimes it's on my feed

03:00:52 You're apologizing

03:00:53 I don't even know

03:00:53 What you're apologizing for

03:00:54 This other person

03:00:55 That made

03:00:56 The other person

03:00:58 That made the video

03:01:00 More that he

03:01:01 He thought that

03:01:02 I should not have engaged

03:01:03 It's not about

03:01:04 Islamic knowledge

03:01:05 It's about

03:01:05 How that specific

03:01:06 Non-Muslim 1.00

03:01:07 But later on

03:01:08 When I explain to him

03:01:08 The context

03:01:09 This person has

03:01:09 A non-Muslim channel 0.98

03:01:10 Career Islamophobe

03:01:12 Has videos refuting Islam 0.81

03:01:13 Then he actually

03:01:14 He said you're correct

03:01:15 Right

03:01:15 So he came back

03:01:16 On what he was advising on

03:01:18 Right

03:01:18 So that's not

03:01:19 That's the benefit

03:01:20 Of sticking just

03:01:21 To the Quran

03:01:22 And what you're talking about

03:01:22 Exactly

03:01:22 Like a public figure

03:01:24 You're an influencer

03:01:25 I know you hate that term

03:01:26 Like your

03:01:27 Your character will be

03:01:28 What's the type

03:01:29 People will come at you

03:01:30 I'm sure that happens

03:01:30 To you after you

03:01:31 I've heard some things

03:01:32 About you

03:01:33 Canceled for saying

03:01:35 I don't know

03:01:35 I love it

03:01:36 For nonsense

03:01:37 I love it

03:01:37 But people come at me

03:01:39 And this is why

03:01:39 It's good to

03:01:40 Do collaborations

03:01:41 With guys like you

03:01:42 Because

03:01:43 I don't have a YouTube channel

03:01:44 So people will make

03:01:45 Documentaries

03:01:46 They'll make a 600 page

03:01:47 600 minute long

03:01:50 It probably made more

03:01:51 Yeah

03:01:51 And I can't respond

03:01:52 Like I'm not even

03:01:53 On the website

03:01:54 To be able to

03:01:54 Defend myself

03:01:55 But I notice

03:01:56 A lot of these people

03:01:56 They just

03:01:56 They kind of want

03:01:57 The best for you

03:01:58 Like in a hateful way

03:01:59 Because in my world

03:02:00 It's more of a game

03:02:01 Of

03:02:01 No no no

03:02:02 I disagree still

03:02:03 They want the best for you

03:02:04 In a hateful way

03:02:05 Nah

03:02:06 Sneakhole

03:02:06 I told him before

03:02:10 He's too nice

03:02:10 He's very nice

03:02:11 I have to have

03:02:13 A good outlook on it

03:02:13 Because they try

03:02:14 To ruin my life

03:02:16 What

03:02:16 If I got angry

03:02:19 They would win

03:02:20 So the only thing

03:02:21 I can't do

03:02:22 Is to stay on my dean

03:02:23 And try to give

03:02:23 The best message possible

03:02:24 If I didn't

03:02:25 If I played their game

03:02:26 I'm fighting a losing battle

03:02:28 They're attacking me

03:02:29 On a website

03:02:29 That I'm not allowed on

03:02:30 So all I have to do

03:02:31 Is see the best in it

03:02:32 And think that these people

03:02:33 Like they're taking advantage

03:02:34 Of the attention system

03:02:35 The fact that my name

03:02:36 Generates views

03:02:37 And they can generate

03:02:37 Views off of my name

03:02:39 And more likely

03:02:40 Like with the internet

03:02:42 You're going to get more views

03:02:43 By canceling someone

03:02:44 By saying something negative

03:02:45 So they just

03:02:46 Really deep down

03:02:47 I think in their hearts

03:02:48 They do want the best for you

03:02:49 They want to push you

03:02:50 To be better

03:02:50 And they're just attacking

03:02:51 Your weak points

03:02:52 Because the internet

03:02:53 Does not reward you

03:02:54 Speaking positively

03:02:54 About somebody

03:02:55 At all

03:02:56 And the thing

03:02:58 That you're asking me

03:02:58 What you would do

03:02:59 Is if they're doing

03:03:00 Something correct

03:03:01 Then I'll just admit

03:03:02 Okay this specific thing

03:03:04 Is correct 0.95

03:03:04 Thank you for correcting me

03:03:05 But if they're saying

03:03:06 Something incorrect

03:03:07 All they do is lie about it

03:03:08 Yeah yeah

03:03:09 Then I would look

03:03:10 On different aspects

03:03:11 I would look first

03:03:11 How much impact

03:03:12 Is it making

03:03:13 Exactly yeah

03:03:13 How much impact

03:03:14 Is it making

03:03:14 Because that can also correlate

03:03:17 With the people

03:03:17 Benefiting from the content

03:03:18 I do

03:03:19 So there is an Islamic angle

03:03:20 There that I'm looking at

03:03:21 Right

03:03:21 There's also a personal angle

03:03:23 Yeah but this is the difference

03:03:24 Now on how you will

03:03:25 Correct yourself

03:03:26 Right

03:03:26 Which is the most important

03:03:27 Thing later on

03:03:28 Okay they made a video

03:03:29 Which is incorrect

03:03:30 How would I respond

03:03:31 The same way that my teacher

03:03:33 That I was talking about

03:03:34 One of my teachers did

03:03:35 He made a video

03:03:36 Clarifying the issue

03:03:39 So they made a claim

03:03:40 He didn't mention

03:03:41 Who attacked him

03:03:42 He didn't mention

03:03:42 Anything about him

03:03:43 He made a video

03:03:44 In his channel

03:03:44 He said look

03:03:45 Some people said

03:03:46 That I've said this

03:03:47 And then that

03:03:47 This is the correct

03:03:48 This is the evidence

03:03:48 This is the Quran

03:03:49 The video is done

03:03:50 Now my audience

03:03:51 Know the truth

03:03:52 About this issue

03:03:52 If any of them

03:03:54 Hears any of the stuff

03:03:55 They say no

03:03:56 That's not actually correct

03:03:57 This is a video

03:03:57 Where he clarified this issue

03:03:58 Done

03:03:59 I have no

03:04:00 I don't have to

03:04:01 Give them attention

03:04:01 I don't have to

03:04:02 Get back and forth

03:04:03 Make hundred visions

03:04:04 About me

03:04:04 I don't care

03:04:04 It doesn't matter

03:04:05 If you're wrong

03:04:06 I'll clarify to my audience

03:04:07 That this specific person

03:04:08 Was wrong in this issue

03:04:09 So don't worry about that

03:04:10 If you heard it

03:04:11 If it has a major impact

03:04:12 If it doesn't

03:04:13 I'm going to ignore it

03:04:14 And if it's correct

03:04:15 You admit

03:04:15 Okay

03:04:16 Jazakallah khair

03:04:17 For correcting me

03:04:18 I think people also

03:04:19 Respect

03:04:20 When people correct themselves

03:04:22 Bro

03:04:23 Yeah

03:04:23 Absolutely

03:04:23 Like because

03:04:24 You were talking about

03:04:25 Vulnerability

03:04:25 There's nobody

03:04:27 Like if you

03:04:28 Are a person

03:04:29 Who's been public

03:04:30 For a very long time

03:04:31 And you haven't actually

03:04:31 Corrected yourself

03:04:32 At least once

03:04:33 Either you're

03:04:34 Deluded

03:04:35 Because you think

03:04:36 Everything you do is right

03:04:37 Or

03:04:38 You don't know

03:04:40 How to self-analyze

03:04:41 Or self-account

03:04:42 And that's the real problem

03:04:43 You know there's something

03:04:43 Why can't you just

03:04:44 Self-analyze

03:04:45 But not in front of them

03:04:46 You know

03:04:48 You've done something

03:04:49 Public

03:04:49 No no but

03:04:50 He's making a very good point

03:04:53 Which I try to do

03:04:54 With almost all

03:04:55 Of my video right

03:04:55 For example

03:04:56 If I'm doing a live content

03:04:57 I don't keep the live

03:04:58 I upload it later on

03:05:00 And I always review

03:05:01 My own content

03:05:02 Before it goes on the channel

03:05:03 Oh really

03:05:03 Yeah

03:05:03 I always review my own

03:05:04 Oh I see what you mean

03:05:05 Yeah

03:05:05 So if there is anything

03:05:07 That I know

03:05:07 It's not only wrong

03:05:08 But

03:05:09 I go to extra levels

03:05:11 For example

03:05:11 It's not only wrong

03:05:12 It's not only doubtful

03:05:13 But people could

03:05:15 Perceive negatively

03:05:16 Even though I know

03:05:17 It's not negative necessarily

03:05:18 But it could

03:05:19 People could push them away

03:05:20 Or make them feel

03:05:20 A certain way

03:05:21 Even that I would correct

03:05:22 Right

03:05:23 Yeah sure

03:05:23 And sometimes

03:05:24 You might have issues

03:05:25 No problem

03:05:25 It's always an editing button

03:05:26 On YouTube

03:05:27 If you came across something

03:05:28 It's like

03:05:28 You can edit that specific part

03:05:30 Like there's no issues

03:05:31 Right

03:05:31 If it's not something wrong

03:05:32 Okay

03:05:33 Edit it

03:05:33 Remove it

03:05:34 If it's making people

03:05:35 Feel a certain way

03:05:35 Even though it's correct

03:05:36 Right

03:05:36 So trying to cause

03:05:37 Less

03:05:38 Disturbance

03:05:40 Among the laymen

03:05:41 As possible

03:05:42 This is what I want

03:05:42 Right

03:05:43 Don't people fighting

03:05:43 This person back and forth

03:05:45 This and that

03:05:45 So I think reviewing

03:05:46 What he's saying

03:05:47 In a way

03:05:47 If you film your content

03:05:48 Yes

03:05:49 And if you have

03:05:50 Review it

03:05:51 And if you come across

03:05:52 Something you didn't know

03:05:53 Someone else know

03:05:53 Was correct 0.98

03:05:54 It was correct 0.94

03:05:55 To come out

03:05:55 And say it's right

03:05:56 But it's true 0.90

03:05:56 They would respect you

03:05:57 And also

03:05:58 If you're a public figure

03:05:59 And obviously

03:06:00 A public figure

03:06:01 And you're giving power

03:06:03 You know

03:06:03 To the religion

03:06:04 And you're giving

03:06:05 You know

03:06:06 Viewership to the religion

03:06:09 And you just 0.99

03:06:11 Damn I completely lost track 0.99

03:06:13 Of what I was trying to say 0.99

03:06:14 Go ahead

03:06:14 Continue

03:06:14 What did you disagree with

03:06:18 About that good hearted nature

03:06:19 Bro

03:06:20 I'm not going to lie to you

03:06:21 We live in a day and age

03:06:22 Bro

03:06:22 Having a good heart 1.00

03:06:25 Is going to get you killed 1.00

03:06:26 Bro 1.00

03:06:26 It's going to get you 0.97

03:06:28 Buried quicker than 0.87

03:06:30 And I'm not talking about

03:06:31 Buried six foot under

03:06:32 You're going to get buried 1.00

03:06:34 In your own misery 0.99

03:06:35 And your fault process 0.66

03:06:38 Yeah

03:06:38 Like I'll give you

03:06:39 A prime example

03:06:39 I know a guy

03:06:40 That's worked in

03:06:41 Organizations and charities

03:06:43 And so on and so forth

03:06:44 Bro

03:06:45 He's been walked over

03:06:47 He's been walked over

03:06:47 So much

03:06:48 They had to pay out

03:06:49 Of his own money

03:06:49 For so long

03:06:50 That everybody

03:06:52 Fooled that

03:06:52 Whatever he's doing

03:06:53 Is just normal

03:06:54 But the reality is

03:06:55 He was too shy

03:06:56 To open his mouth

03:06:57 So is that really

03:06:58 A good heart thing

03:06:59 And everybody

03:07:00 Like to use this term

03:07:01 I don't know

03:07:03 If you've used it

03:07:03 No

03:07:03 For the sake of Allah

03:07:05 For the sake of Allah

03:07:06 Yo sneaker

03:07:07 Give me a shout out

03:07:08 Bro

03:07:08 For the sake of Allah 0.92

03:07:09 What kind of foolishness 0.97

03:07:11 Is this bro 0.99

03:07:11 So this term

03:07:14 For the sake of Allah

03:07:15 Has only become

03:07:17 A term

03:07:18 I'm talking about

03:07:19 I'm talking about

03:07:19 Certain sectors

03:07:20 Mohammed correct me on this 1.00

03:07:21 And Sheikh Allah 0.64

03:07:22 Mubarak

03:07:22 We go way back

03:07:40 Is using you

03:07:41 And by they're telling you

03:07:42 Yo do something

03:07:43 For the sake of Allah

03:07:44 But in reality

03:07:45 They're benefiting

03:07:46 Financially

03:07:47 That's for the sake of that

03:07:48 Thank you

03:07:49 Make it make sense

03:07:50 Don't use that term

03:07:51 With me bro

03:07:51 For the sake of Allah

03:07:52 Should only come from yourself

03:07:54 So you can turn around

03:07:55 And say

03:07:56 You know what

03:07:56 For the sake of Allah

03:07:57 We've come to this restaurant

03:08:09 It's mixed up with

03:08:10 The way the warner

03:08:12 Says it

03:08:12 It's basically

03:08:13 My friend

03:08:14 I can't remember

03:08:15 The time

03:08:16 So when the warner

03:08:18 Called me

03:08:31 I'm sacrificing

03:08:32 My time

03:08:33 For my wife

03:08:34 For my kids

03:08:35 To gain absolutely

03:08:37 Nothing from me

03:08:38 But yo

03:08:39 Shut your mouth 0.99

03:08:40 No I'm done 0.99

03:08:42 For the sake of Allah

03:08:44 For the sake of Allah

03:08:45 Bro

03:08:46 Bro

03:08:47 And that window

03:08:49 Better be bulletproof

03:08:51 So how do you deal

03:08:52 With the online feedback

03:08:54 The online hate

03:08:55 Or hate in general

03:08:56 Look

03:08:57 So when a video comes out

03:08:58 The thing about my videos

03:08:59 Bro

03:09:00 I don't do what you guys do

03:09:02 I don't record my content

03:09:04 Not at all

03:09:04 Don't record it at all

03:09:06 You let the people do it

03:09:07 No

03:09:07 Bro

03:09:08 I go to a talk

03:09:09 Oh yes say what not

03:09:11 I go to a talk

03:09:11 Instagram though

03:09:12 I go to Instagram

03:09:13 That's my Instagram

03:09:13 Yeah

03:09:14 So

03:09:14 Did you do that one

03:09:16 That was myself

03:09:17 Obviously

03:09:17 I'm there like

03:09:18 What

03:09:18 Some gin recording me

03:09:20 Or something

03:09:20 No

03:09:20 That was it myself

03:09:25 But I'm doing it

03:09:26 In the masjid

03:09:27 I've never recorded myself

03:09:29 I think today was the first time

03:09:31 So I actually got somewhere

03:09:32 Why do you just do masjid talks

03:09:33 I'll tell you why

03:09:34 I think we should do more like

03:09:35 What these guys are doing

03:09:36 A little bit as well

03:09:37 Speaking to the public

03:09:37 My bro

03:09:38 I'm more of a footwork

03:09:41 I'm more of a foot soldier

03:09:42 Mohammed

03:09:43 Go on

03:09:43 I like footwork bro

03:09:45 I like to go to the blocks

03:09:46 Talking to gang members

03:09:47 Why don't you do that

03:09:48 Why don't you do that

03:09:48 I have been

03:09:49 But actually

03:09:50 This is where we have

03:09:51 We live in a society

03:09:53 I think you can definitely agree on this

03:09:55 Because I know you go to different places

03:09:56 And record yourself

03:09:57 And speaking to people

03:09:58 We live in a society

03:10:00 Where if you were to do that

03:10:02 With a good heart

03:10:03 They'd be like

03:10:04 You're not sincere

03:10:04 Because we can see

03:10:05 Why do you need to record yourself

03:10:06 Going to the block

03:10:07 Or praying with the gang members

03:10:08 Or doing this

03:10:09 Or getting rid of drugs

03:10:10 Getting rid of guns

03:10:11 Actually I've been at talks

03:10:13 Where people come to me

03:10:14 They're wearing a

03:10:15 You know the crossover bag

03:10:16 But there's drugs in the bag

03:10:18 Or there's bullets in the bag

03:10:19 They're like

03:10:19 Boy I don't want to do this no more

03:10:21 Like a boy

03:10:22 A few days ago

03:10:22 I went to a mosque

03:10:23 During Ramadan

03:10:26 One guy wants to go and rob

03:10:27 Shoes

03:10:28 Not just any shoes

03:10:29 The shoes that belongs to someone

03:10:31 That is doing something

03:10:32 For the community

03:10:33 Like in

03:10:34 Food

03:10:35 They question your intentions

03:10:50 Thank you

03:10:52 Because you're doing everything

03:10:53 In the camera

03:10:54 In the lamp

03:10:54 Why don't you just keep it

03:10:55 Between yourself and Allah 0.99

03:10:57 Because this is why

03:10:59 Bro

03:10:59 He can bounce from me

03:11:01 I get you bro

03:11:02 But my Dawah

03:11:03 Ain't public

03:11:03 My Dawah

03:11:04 Is behind closed doors

03:11:05 Which is a mosque 0.98

03:11:07 Whoever decides to come there

03:11:09 With their dead tripod

03:11:10 To record me

03:11:11 That's their problem bro

03:11:13 But now I've become more

03:11:14 Strict

03:11:15 But I don't want you to record

03:11:17 Just listen up

03:11:18 Really why?

03:11:19 Well as in that

03:11:19 People are taking my

03:11:21 Videos out of content

03:11:23 Cropping it out

03:11:24 You should be in control

03:11:25 Of your own creative

03:11:26 Thing man

03:11:27 Don't you think?

03:11:28 But this is why

03:11:28 I've got a team around me now

03:11:29 That have that power

03:11:31 To do so

03:11:31 So why don't you just make

03:11:32 A YouTube channel?

03:11:34 I've got one

03:11:35 I just don't upload

03:11:36 Oh

03:11:37 No upload

03:11:37 Yeah man

03:11:38 If you're doing it for Instagram

03:11:40 It's the same thing

03:11:40 Yeah if you say

03:11:41 If you say

03:11:42 As you said

03:11:42 You want to take over

03:11:43 Like if you want to reach

03:11:45 I want to conquer

03:11:46 Yeah conquer

03:11:46 Yeah if you're not

03:11:47 Conquer

03:11:47 LA

03:11:48 LA

03:11:49 If you want to conquer

03:11:51 Then obviously

03:11:52 Having that content online

03:11:54 Would reach a lot more people

03:11:55 Right?

03:11:55 And the youth are

03:11:56 Where are they?

03:11:57 Most of the time

03:11:57 Are on social media

03:11:58 Are on these apps

03:11:59 Right?

03:11:59 So you need

03:12:00 You need to have a presence

03:12:01 On the road as well

03:12:01 Like go to Leicester Square

03:12:02 With Muslim Lantern 0.71

03:12:03 I'm okay still

03:12:07 Speak this over bro

03:12:08 It'd be interesting

03:12:09 I would

03:12:10 I hate that area

03:12:12 You don't like to go

03:12:14 To Speaker's Corner?

03:12:15 I don't want you to go bro

03:12:17 No I shouldn't go

03:12:18 Why are you going?

03:12:19 What?

03:12:21 Huh?

03:12:21 They want me to go

03:12:22 Streaming Speaker's Corner tomorrow

03:12:23 They've been begging me

03:12:24 To go stream there

03:12:25 For a year

03:12:26 Saying Speaker's Corner

03:12:27 Don't go?

03:12:28 Bro

03:12:28 Speaker's Corner

03:12:29 It's not like going to Paris

03:12:30 And seeing the Eiffel Tower

03:12:32 No

03:12:32 Let me make it clear bro

03:12:33 I'm aware

03:12:33 You're going to see

03:12:35 Men

03:12:35 Definitely while they're fasting

03:12:37 Yeah

03:12:37 For those Muslims that are there 0.93

03:12:39 Bare breath kicking

03:12:40 That's number one

03:12:41 Oh

03:12:41 Number

03:12:42 Stop from 0.63

03:12:43 Number

03:12:43 Number two

03:12:46 Bare coves

03:12:46 That don't know how to wash themselves

03:12:48 Oh no

03:12:49 Why would you want to be in that environment?

03:12:51 Yeah

03:12:51 Look

03:12:51 He's right

03:12:54 He's right

03:12:54 Because the thing is

03:12:55 He used to go in there

03:12:56 Well it's for content

03:12:57 Yeah

03:12:58 But this is something

03:12:58 Which is

03:12:59 I'll get out

03:12:59 So you can go

03:13:00 Building an online

03:13:01 Come

03:13:02 Portfolio

03:13:02 Using it

03:13:03 Was the best way to be an online

03:13:05 Now you got a big boy here

03:13:06 Right

03:13:06 To get

03:13:06 It's my guy

03:13:07 You got him to

03:13:08 I got one

03:13:09 Let's go

03:13:09 You still

03:13:09 So building an online portfolio

03:13:11 If you want to do that as a Muslim 1.00

03:13:12 This is a tactical place

03:13:14 For you to do it in the beginning

03:13:15 Once you've got that content

03:13:16 You don't need to be there anymore

03:13:17 Right

03:13:18 But the thing is

03:13:18 If he's going

03:13:20 A lot

03:13:21 This is what you need to

03:13:21 I would recommend

03:13:22 You don't go as well as he says

03:13:23 I should have said that

03:13:24 Yeah

03:13:25 But if you were to go

03:13:26 Because now

03:13:26 We're telling you not

03:13:28 I'm not going

03:13:29 Good

03:13:29 So because like

03:13:30 This is what happens

03:13:31 It will even happen more

03:13:32 Which has come back to the point

03:13:33 That I was mentioning before

03:13:35 Certain non-Muslims there 0.71

03:13:37 Will try to use you

03:13:38 To give views

03:13:39 To get traffic

03:13:40 Exactly 0.72

03:13:41 To propagate more of their nonsense

03:13:43 I get enough of that online already

03:13:44 Yeah

03:13:45 So you will get

03:13:45 You will get happening in real life

03:13:47 With cameras

03:13:47 Everyone surrounding you

03:13:48 That's why I don't go

03:13:49 I'll show up like 1.00

03:13:49 Gay in a black mask 1.00

03:13:50 Or something 0.99

03:13:51 You know the funny thing is

03:13:52 They now come big

03:13:53 On certain live streams

03:13:55 I'm doing

03:13:55 These specific individuals

03:13:56 I have

03:13:56 They come big

03:13:57 Oh bring me in

03:13:58 And I don't bring

03:13:59 I just ban them

03:13:59 And leave them 0.81

03:14:00 You're irrelevant

03:14:01 Why do we give you relevancy

03:14:02 Something which is very important

03:14:03 Yeah ignore them

03:14:04 And sadly in the past

03:14:05 A lot of the Muslims

03:14:06 They gave a lot of

03:14:08 Relevance and importance

03:14:09 And you know

03:14:11 Recognition to these

03:14:12 Type of nobodies

03:14:13 And then they were

03:14:14 Recognized later on

03:14:15 Because of that

03:14:16 Because if there is no Muslim 1.00

03:14:17 Who is engaging 0.54

03:14:18 No one will watch the video

03:14:20 In the end

03:14:22 This woman

03:14:22 High tunes

03:14:23 Or whatever it is

03:14:23 That has high tunes

03:14:24 And you know

03:14:24 Speaking of high tunes

03:14:25 The speaker's corner

03:14:26 Or

03:14:26 Another guy shouting

03:14:28 Screaming bible verses

03:14:29 Who is going to listen to this?

03:14:30 Bo, do we need to be honest with you?

03:14:31 Yeah

03:14:31 Do we need to be honest with you?

03:14:32 Yeah

03:14:33 Mohammed you have something about speaker's corner 1.00

03:14:34 Yeah?

03:14:35 No, no bro

03:14:35 So I'm going to tell you

03:14:36 Huh?

03:14:36 You don't go anymore?

03:14:37 I'm going for like what?

03:14:38 He's

03:14:40 I go irregularly

03:14:42 So let me be honest with you

03:14:45 If every Muslim 1.00

03:14:47 Every Muslim 0.89

03:14:48 Doesn't go to the speaker's corner

03:14:51 I'm talking about those

03:14:52 That I actually preach

03:14:53 If you don't go to speaker's corner

03:14:54 For one month

03:14:55 The kufs over there 1.00

03:14:58 Will have nothing else to talk about

03:15:00 Except for attacking themselves

03:15:01 Right

03:15:02 You see I believe

03:15:03 We live

03:15:04 We live

03:15:05 We have such a blessed religion

03:15:06 We don't need to

03:15:09 To engage in our way

03:15:09 To defend it

03:15:10 Right

03:15:10 To that level

03:15:11 Where we are in a

03:15:12 Bo, one of the reasons 0.89

03:15:13 Why I can't go to speaker's corner

03:15:14 Because I can't stand there

03:15:16 And you're

03:15:17 Abusing

03:15:18 The

03:15:18 The honour of my prophet

03:15:20 I'm breaking your jaw 0.54

03:15:21 I can't stand there

03:15:23 No, no I can't

03:15:24 Be real

03:15:25 I don't have the patience

03:15:26 To stand there

03:15:27 And you're

03:15:29 Dissing

03:15:29 My God

03:15:30 Or dissing

03:15:31 My prophet 0.99

03:15:32 I'm going to break your jaw 0.99

03:15:34 No 0.98

03:15:35 You can't

03:15:36 So the people that

03:15:37 Oh Bob

03:15:37 Don't put yourself in that situation

03:15:41 That's right

03:15:41 Don't go there

03:15:42 Do you understand what I'm coming from

03:15:43 Can I ask you

03:15:44 The chat they're begging me

03:15:45 To ask you about Modine

03:15:46 I didn't know that

03:15:47 Are you friends with them

03:15:48 I met him a couple times

03:15:49 So look Bob

03:15:49 He's a great guy Modine

03:15:51 Did you go to school with him

03:15:52 No so

03:15:53 Huh

03:15:53 Did you go to school with him

03:15:55 But I'm from South London

03:15:56 He's from North West

03:15:56 You know him too

03:15:57 Yeah yeah yeah

03:15:58 I know each other

03:15:58 Good friends

03:15:59 Oh yeah

03:15:59 Yeah

03:16:00 Good friends

03:16:00 He's from

03:16:01 He's from

03:16:02 He's from

03:16:03 Are you from South London?

03:16:04 I thought you lived in West London

03:16:04 You lived in West London

03:16:05 I thought you lived in West London

03:16:07 No

03:16:08 I thought you were from

03:16:08 You

03:16:09 No

03:16:09 Is this your first time meeting?

03:16:14 No

03:16:15 Okay

03:16:15 I don't want to mention his name for camera reasons

03:16:19 He's very wanted right now

03:16:21 But his wife for being so laid out 0.94

03:16:24 It makes sense

03:16:25 So look

03:16:27 Modine

03:16:27 He's been following me for a very long time

03:16:30 He's got a very genuine heart

03:16:33 But I don't like

03:16:34 I don't like certain stances that he has

03:16:36 But muta

03:16:37 Yeah

03:16:37 None of the certain stances we disagree

03:16:39 Let's be honest

03:16:40 We can revive this sunnah

03:16:42 I'm free from this

03:16:46 I'm sugar free from this still

03:16:51 So let me

03:16:51 So he came

03:16:52 So there was a boy

03:16:54 There was a friend of mine

03:16:55 That was with me

03:16:55 He goes

03:16:56 Yo

03:16:56 Modine's about

03:16:57 And it's Yomah Arafah

03:16:58 When people are fasting

03:17:00 But it's also his birthday

03:17:02 I said

03:17:03 You know what Bo

03:17:03 If he's in the area

03:17:04 Let me sit down with him

03:17:06 And try to reason with him

03:17:08 Right

03:17:08 That's how I'm trying to reason with him

03:17:09 Birthdays are haram aren't they?

03:17:11 Yeah of course

03:17:11 Yeah

03:17:12 We don't celebrate these pagans

03:17:13 There's not something

03:17:14 The Prophet did not 0.99

03:17:15 His companion

03:17:15 Not from Islam 1.00

03:17:16 We're not out here to blow no candles

03:17:18 It's a pagan mutual

03:17:21 Yeah bro

03:17:21 So you met Modine

03:17:23 What happened?

03:17:23 So I met Modine

03:17:24 I invited him for some Somali food

03:17:26 And we spoke

03:17:27 And you know behind closed

03:17:29 I told him

03:17:29 Bro

03:17:29 If I

03:17:30 Do you curse the companions?

03:17:33 Do you curse our mother?

03:17:34 I was saying these

03:17:34 And me and him spoke

03:17:37 And reasoned properly

03:17:38 My brother

03:17:39 He

03:17:41 He needs

03:17:42 He needs help still bro

03:17:44 But he needs people

03:17:45 No no no no no

03:17:46 No no no no no

03:17:47 No no no no no

03:17:48 No no no no no

03:17:49 Not in a jokey way bro

03:17:51 The brother actually needs

03:17:53 Guidance

03:17:54 He just needs someone

03:17:55 To guide him bro

03:17:56 He's got a very genuine heart

03:17:58 Really?

03:17:58 But he has no guidance bro

03:17:59 Do you understand?

03:18:00 Really?

03:18:00 He needs people to hold his hand

03:18:02 And say

03:18:02 Bro this is the truth

03:18:04 Bro this is

03:18:05 This is what you need to do

03:18:06 This is what you don't need to do

03:18:07 You can't speak about this

03:18:08 You can't do this

03:18:09 You can't do that

03:18:10 But in reality

03:18:11 If someone

03:18:12 Such as myself

03:18:13 That he respects

03:18:14 I've sat down with him

03:18:15 And gave him the opportunity bro

03:18:16 And I'm not trying to

03:18:18 Like off camera

03:18:19 I'm going to tell you

03:18:19 My guy

03:18:20 We were

03:18:21 We were vulnerable

03:18:22 Towards one another

03:18:23 That we ended up

03:18:25 Understanding one another

03:18:25 To such a level

03:18:26 I felt sorry for him

03:18:27 Vulnerable yeah

03:18:28 How are you vulnerable to him?

03:18:30 Tell me that one

03:18:30 How are you vulnerable to him?

03:18:32 What did you say to him?

03:18:33 You know

03:18:33 You know the thing is

03:18:34 I met him one time by the way

03:18:35 He's the key

03:18:36 But that's a while

03:18:37 A long time

03:18:37 Bombastic side 0.98

03:18:38 And I want to comment on what you said

03:18:42 But there's an issue of what you said

03:18:43 Right?

03:18:44 When I had a very brief discussion

03:18:45 I didn't talk to him too long

03:18:47 That was a while ago as well

03:18:47 Three years ago or something

03:18:48 The thing is

03:18:49 He already has that person

03:18:51 But in the wrong way

03:18:52 So when we discussed with him

03:18:54 And we were refuting some of what he has as positions

03:18:56 He started calling

03:18:57 I'm going to call this person

03:18:58 With my this and this

03:18:59 Then that person said to him

03:19:01 Leave them

03:19:01 Don't listen to them

03:19:02 Thank you

03:19:03 So he already has

03:19:05 He needs guidance

03:19:05 But he has the wrong type of guidance

03:19:07 Is what I'm saying right now

03:19:08 Because of

03:19:08 No boy

03:19:09 You blame his company

03:19:10 Yeah

03:19:10 You blame his company

03:19:11 Look bro

03:19:12 I would never put myself in an argument

03:19:14 Knowing

03:19:15 That if you were to give me a question

03:19:17 I don't have an answer

03:19:18 You can't embarrass me bro

03:19:21 Regardless if it's on camera or not

03:19:23 I wouldn't put myself in that position

03:19:25 You're asking me a question

03:19:26 Especially when it comes to certain aspects of the religion

03:19:29 I ain't got knowledge of bro

03:19:31 I keep my mouth shut

03:19:32 I'm listening to you from behind

03:19:34 Like

03:19:34 From the back seat

03:19:35 I'm just listening to you guys

03:19:36 There's more knowledgeable people in the room with me

03:19:39 Let them do their part

03:19:40 I don't need to get involved

03:19:41 That's one of the traits of a narcissist

03:19:43 Where

03:19:43 They

03:19:44 They get themselves involved

03:19:46 To be the center of attention

03:19:47 But you

03:19:49 But you don't benefit the room

03:19:50 Or nothing in the room

03:19:51 So therefore

03:19:52 You just want to be the voice

03:19:53 That be heard

03:19:54 And so on and so forth

03:19:55 So therefore

03:19:55 I'll keep my mouth shut bro

03:19:57 There's people of knowledge around me

03:19:58 If there were discussion

03:19:59 Let them be

03:20:00 But the reality is about

03:20:01 Moadim bro 0.99

03:20:02 I genuinely believe

03:20:03 He

03:20:04 He says he's from Mosul

03:20:06 I'm from Mosul

03:20:08 Oh really?

03:20:09 There's no shi is in Mosul 1.00

03:20:11 It's a Sunni state bro

03:20:13 It's a Sunni city

03:20:14 So to me

03:20:16 There was some personal physics

03:20:18 You're Kurdish man?

03:20:19 Kurdish Iraqi

03:20:19 Yeah

03:20:20 Yeah

03:20:20 So obviously

03:20:21 From the bloodline of Salah ad-Din 0.99

03:20:22 What are you

03:20:24 What's the tribe

03:20:25 What's the thing called

03:20:26 Salmani

03:20:29 Salmani

03:20:30 Yeah

03:20:30 Wait a minute

03:20:32 I'll be in the bathroom

03:20:33 A rock

03:20:34 I'm from all the tea

03:20:36 I want to ask you something actually

03:20:38 And by the way

03:20:39 You know because

03:20:39 You get some people

03:20:40 You have this idea today

03:20:42 If you sit down with someone

03:20:43 Or have a talk with someone

03:20:44 Or have a picture with someone

03:20:45 You're instantly labeled to be

03:20:47 Careful

03:20:47 Yeah

03:20:48 Exactly

03:20:49 The exact same view

03:20:51 Or believe with that individual

03:20:52 And to be honest

03:20:54 I didn't even know

03:20:54 Hijab is here today

03:20:55 Or

03:20:56 Akhi Ayman

03:20:57 Anyways

03:20:57 I was not told

03:20:58 But I'm here sitting down

03:20:59 And I'm not saying this

03:21:00 Because I want to go and leave

03:21:01 And this and that

03:21:02 You want to go and leave

03:21:03 Yeah yeah

03:21:04 Because I could

03:21:04 Okay I've seen Hijab 0.99

03:21:06 Okay you know what

03:21:06 I follow these people

03:21:07 Let me leave

03:21:08 You know 0.98

03:21:08 This is ridiculous 0.96

03:21:10 Do you want the water 0.98

03:21:11 To open the door for you?

03:21:12 No

03:21:12 So I want to mention

03:21:15 One thing on this

03:21:16 First

03:21:16 Is that I don't think

03:21:19 You're going to find

03:21:19 A single scholar

03:21:20 Yeah

03:21:21 That you follow

03:21:22 Whoever these people follow

03:21:23 That does not have a picture

03:21:24 With that individual

03:21:25 That would be labeled

03:21:26 As an innovator

03:21:26 You're not going to

03:21:27 You will always find a picture

03:21:29 What matters is the context

03:21:30 First

03:21:31 Do I know this person

03:21:33 Is an innovator?

03:21:33 Do I know this person?

03:21:34 I don't

03:21:34 I didn't make it for the first time

03:21:35 I've ever seen it

03:21:36 I don't watch his videos

03:21:37 Right?

03:21:37 But you are labeling me

03:21:38 Based on me sitting down with him

03:21:39 I don't know him

03:21:40 Can I ask you a question on this?

03:21:41 Yeah

03:21:41 This has always confused me

03:21:44 Why is the Sunnah so weak?

03:21:45 I'll give you an example

03:21:45 You've got Sunni 1.00

03:21:47 Let's say here

03:21:48 And you've got a

03:21:48 Non-Sunni

03:21:49 It's Muhtadir 0.93

03:21:51 They sit together

03:21:53 Why is it that the Sunni 1.00

03:21:55 It comes Muhtadir 0.84

03:21:56 And not Muhtadir

03:21:58 In the gathering you mean?

03:21:59 Yeah in the gathering

03:21:59 How come it's never the other way around?

03:22:01 How come Muhtadir

03:22:02 Then it comes Sunni 1.00

03:22:03 Why is the Sunnah so weak?

03:22:04 That it's like

03:22:05 It gets taken away so quickly

03:22:06 I'll come to you with this

03:22:08 Let me learn

03:22:09 You're not playing bro

03:22:10 What are you going to say?

03:22:11 Nothing

03:22:11 No no but I get what you're saying

03:22:14 I get what you're saying 1.00

03:22:14 It's a pathetic 0.99

03:22:15 No no it's true 0.94

03:22:17 There's a lot of settings

03:22:19 And this is

03:22:19 He's actually right

03:22:22 This needs to be corrected

03:22:23 I push forward more

03:22:24 If you sit down

03:22:25 You need to at least mention something

03:22:27 But still

03:22:27 What I was mentioning

03:22:29 Is responding to that

03:22:30 What if I don't know?

03:22:31 So I'm coming

03:22:33 But they're already labelled

03:22:34 Yeah but these guys

03:22:35 Already have

03:22:36 The desire to label you

03:22:38 Exactly

03:22:38 So this is just a

03:22:39 Excuse me

03:22:40 Excuse me

03:22:41 I have no point in that

03:22:41 Yeah yeah

03:22:42 So I'm trying to

03:22:43 For the layman

03:22:44 Looking good bro

03:22:45 I'm trying for the layman

03:22:46 And the people who follow these things

03:22:48 To get more understanding

03:22:49 Give them different views

03:22:50 Right?

03:22:51 So I could not know

03:22:52 With this person

03:22:52 What they believe

03:22:53 I could be sitting with him

03:22:53 To advise him

03:22:54 But you don't know

03:22:55 I'm advising him

03:22:55 Thank you

03:22:56 And the cameras come

03:22:57 How do you know

03:22:58 What I was sitting down

03:22:58 Doing with this brother?

03:22:59 You don't know

03:23:00 It could be a sporadic

03:23:01 Exactly

03:23:01 This picture

03:23:02 You know

03:23:02 I was advising him

03:23:03 Someone came to the picture

03:23:04 We both smile

03:23:04 Don't lie

03:23:06 I was actually

03:23:07 Agreed to advise him

03:23:08 To sit down with him

03:23:10 And then actually

03:23:10 You know

03:23:10 People are like

03:23:11 Oh yeah

03:23:12 This guy

03:23:12 Let me do that

03:23:14 I'll come back to you

03:23:15 One second

03:23:15 I know you want to

03:23:17 You want to comment on this

03:23:18 Right?

03:23:19 So these could be

03:23:20 All possibilities

03:23:21 But also

03:23:22 There is a very extreme

03:23:24 Side of

03:23:25 Who you label

03:23:26 As a mutfi' 1.00

03:23:27 And who you don't

03:23:28 And this is even

03:23:28 A bigger issue

03:23:29 I would say

03:23:29 Because I think

03:23:30 A lot of these people

03:23:31 Who say this person

03:23:32 Is an innovator

03:23:32 Do not understand

03:23:33 What the righteous predecessors

03:23:34 Would label an individual

03:23:36 To be an innovator

03:23:37 Right?

03:23:38 The issues

03:23:38 Disagreements in the usul

03:23:39 This person in his usul

03:23:41 In the usul of the religion 0.95

03:23:42 Opposes the usul

03:23:43 That you believe

03:23:43 This would be

03:23:45 This would be a person

03:23:45 Who's labelled as that

03:23:46 And he knows

03:23:47 And he's knowingly

03:23:47 He's been advised

03:23:48 All of these issues

03:23:49 Right?

03:23:50 So

03:23:50 I want to ask you this

03:23:52 Because I know you get

03:23:53 A lot of criticism

03:23:53 You're telling me

03:23:55 His brother is also getting

03:23:55 Criticism

03:23:56 I don't know

03:23:56 This is the thing

03:23:58 I do not know

03:23:58 I actually enjoy it

03:24:00 I genuinely enjoy it

03:24:02 So I want to mention

03:24:02 But I enjoy it

03:24:03 In a way where

03:24:04 I don't watch the videos

03:24:05 I just get

03:24:06 I just

03:24:07 I'm like

03:24:08 Cool

03:24:08 Okay

03:24:08 So

03:24:09 About you

03:24:10 For example

03:24:12 Do you notice sometimes

03:24:13 That you would be mentioning

03:24:15 Or giving them materials

03:24:16 I don't know if you do it

03:24:18 Intentionally or not intentionally

03:24:19 But do you notice sometimes

03:24:20 You might be intentionally

03:24:21 Maybe how you speak

03:24:22 Maybe how you refer

03:24:23 To certain individuals

03:24:24 I know these people

03:24:25 Would have extremes

03:24:25 And certain beliefs

03:24:26 So you could be tackling them

03:24:27 But in a way

03:24:29 I feel sometimes

03:24:30 You might be giving them content

03:24:31 Would you agree with me on that?

03:24:32 Yeah

03:24:32 I mean look

03:24:33 The thing is

03:24:33 In the beginning

03:24:34 When I first went into Dawah

03:24:35 Let me give you a bit of a thing

03:24:36 Yeah

03:24:36 I got into the Dawah 1.00

03:24:38 In 2015

03:24:39 Okay

03:24:40 And how old are you?

03:24:42 32

03:24:42 There

03:24:43 How old are you?

03:24:44 31

03:24:45 Oh is it?

03:24:45 Same kind of

03:24:46 I said green

03:24:46 I said green child

03:24:47 He said he's got that one there as well

03:24:50 There

03:24:51 So I got

03:24:54 I got into Dawah 2015

03:24:56 In the beginning

03:24:57 I was a little bit like

03:24:58 Muslim Lantern

03:24:59 I was like

03:24:59 You know

03:25:00 Doing the things

03:25:00 Up until 2018

03:25:02 When I had the David Wood debate

03:25:03 Everything blew up

03:25:04 Then I'll start

03:25:05 After that

03:25:05 But for three years

03:25:07 I was relatively

03:25:08 Uncontroversial

03:25:08 You'd be surprised

03:25:09 You know

03:25:10 If you look at my videos

03:25:11 From 2015

03:25:12 2018

03:25:13 Even those

03:25:14 Even those groups

03:25:15 Of Muslims

03:25:15 And stuff like

03:25:16 These

03:25:16 It was all knowledge

03:25:19 It was all information

03:25:20 Of cults and stuff

03:25:21 They weren't attacking me

03:25:22 They weren't attacking me

03:25:24 At all

03:25:24 It really went

03:25:25 I grew to a certain level

03:25:27 And they said

03:25:28 Okay

03:25:29 This person needs to be 0.90

03:25:30 Attacked now 0.98

03:25:30 Okay

03:25:31 They decided to attack me

03:25:32 So

03:25:32 In the beginning

03:25:33 I was a bit tentative

03:25:34 So I was a bit like

03:25:36 You know

03:25:37 In a sense

03:25:39 Apprehensive

03:25:40 Okay

03:25:40 I don't want to be

03:25:41 Too badly

03:25:42 In their bad books

03:25:43 Because if they're

03:25:44 Too badly

03:25:44 In their bad books

03:25:45 Then they're gonna

03:25:46 Ruble my life

03:25:47 Blah blah blah

03:25:48 Then after I realised

03:25:49 That they were going for it

03:25:51 I started thinking to myself

03:25:53 You know what

03:25:54 I've got the wrong idea

03:25:56 Of this

03:25:56 Yeah

03:25:57 And I adopted a policy

03:25:59 Which

03:25:59 It's a little bit different

03:26:01 My policy I adopted was

03:26:03 Why do I always have to fear

03:26:06 The consequences

03:26:07 Of people

03:26:08 Why can't I make myself

03:26:10 The consequence

03:26:11 For people

03:26:12 But you know

03:26:14 I get what you're saying

03:26:15 So on this point

03:26:16 What happened was

03:26:17 When I found that

03:26:18 They were going a bit

03:26:19 Too hard on it

03:26:20 These groups

03:26:21 And other groups

03:26:22 I said okay

03:26:22 Fine 0.85

03:26:23 You're gonna throw missiles 0.94

03:26:24 In my territory 0.95

03:26:25 I'm gonna have to throw

03:26:26 Missiles in yours

03:26:26 So when the missiles

03:26:28 Started landing

03:26:29 I said okay

03:26:29 I'm gonna have a

03:26:31 Designated program

03:26:32 For disseminating

03:26:33 Or producing missiles

03:26:35 And it's gonna go

03:26:36 To your territory

03:26:36 When I did that

03:26:38 I'll tell you my

03:26:38 I'll hold out here

03:26:40 These words I've made to

03:26:42 She won't free from this

03:26:43 So what happened was

03:26:46 That in 2018-19

03:26:48 When we started

03:26:49 From the missiles

03:26:49 I started realising

03:26:51 That they were responding

03:26:51 To me in an insecure way

03:26:53 That they started

03:26:54 Responding to me

03:26:55 Being like worried

03:26:56 Clarifying

03:26:57 This and that

03:26:58 So justifying

03:26:59 When I started

03:27:00 Seeing that insecure tone

03:27:01 I realised

03:27:02 Now we're

03:27:03 Now on a level

03:27:04 Playing field

03:27:04 So I

03:27:06 At this point

03:27:08 In my life

03:27:09 I refuse

03:27:10 To have an

03:27:11 Asymmetrical relationship

03:27:12 With the people

03:27:14 That think that

03:27:15 They can label me

03:27:15 And I have to justify

03:27:16 I'm gonna make it

03:27:17 Symmetrical

03:27:18 How am I gonna make it

03:27:19 Symmetrical

03:27:19 You're a human being

03:27:21 Just like I am

03:27:22 If you can find my mistakes

03:27:23 I can find yours

03:27:24 I have to give you

03:27:25 A taste of your own medicine

03:27:26 If you go too far

03:27:28 It's like any other person

03:27:29 In the world

03:27:29 And I'm only telling you

03:27:31 This now because

03:27:32 You're like

03:27:32 You're at the precipice

03:27:33 At this point

03:27:34 You're at a precipice

03:27:35 You don't

03:27:36 You might not have

03:27:37 Felt it yet

03:27:38 And this advice

03:27:40 Might be

03:27:40 Useful to you

03:27:42 When you're

03:27:43 You're at the edge

03:27:45 So which means

03:27:47 That right now

03:27:47 You're going at

03:27:48 A certain level

03:27:49 Okay

03:27:50 In the Islamic world 0.99

03:27:52 Where

03:27:52 At this point

03:27:53 There's a threshold

03:27:54 There's a critical mass

03:27:54 There's gonna be

03:27:55 New attacks

03:27:56 My policy

03:27:57 With dealing with attacks

03:27:58 Is there's three

03:27:59 Different things

03:28:00 Silence is one of them

03:28:02 But also response

03:28:03 Is one of them

03:28:04 You have to have both

03:28:06 You have to be able

03:28:06 To be silent sometimes

03:28:07 And you have to be

03:28:08 Responding sometimes

03:28:09 You know

03:28:10 Because if you don't

03:28:11 If you're always gonna

03:28:11 Let them feel

03:28:12 That it's easy me

03:28:13 It's like getting slapped

03:28:15 All the time

03:28:16 And you're not responding

03:28:16 You know

03:28:17 I'm not disagreeing with you

03:28:18 That's what I was saying

03:28:19 I would respond

03:28:19 But it depends

03:28:20 Remember

03:28:20 I was giving

03:28:21 So for me

03:28:21 They

03:28:22 Okay

03:28:22 So if a Muslim 0.99

03:28:23 Is gonna come

03:28:24 With labels

03:28:24 With me

03:28:25 I'm gonna produce labels

03:28:26 For them

03:28:27 Now this is what

03:28:27 I wanna comment on you

03:28:29 Allah says

03:28:31 Yes

03:28:31 Is this true

03:28:37 But at the beginning

03:28:38 Of the ayah 0.99

03:28:39 Is the recompense

03:28:40 Of the sin

03:28:40 Is a sin like it

03:28:41 Which means

03:28:42 Surah to Shura

03:28:42 It means that

03:28:43 If someone attacks you

03:28:44 In a certain way

03:28:45 You're allowed

03:28:45 To attack them back

03:28:46 In fact

03:28:47 The ayah 0.91

03:28:47 It's even towards a Muslim 1.00

03:28:48 Muslim

03:28:48 This is for Muslims

03:28:49 In fact

03:28:50 Allah says

03:28:51 In the same

03:28:51 Surah

03:28:52 In the same

03:28:52 Safah

03:28:52 In the same

03:28:53 Page

03:28:53 He mentions

03:28:55 In the same

03:28:56 Page

03:28:56 He says

03:29:00 So the one who goes

03:29:18 He seeks retribution

03:29:21 After he's been attacked

03:29:22 There's no

03:29:23 There's no

03:29:24 Blame on them

03:29:24 Which means that

03:29:25 If you attack me

03:29:26 If you attack my honor

03:29:28 If you attack me physically

03:29:29 They will be 1.00

03:29:30 I don't care if you're Muslim 1.00

03:29:31 I'm sorry to say 0.98

03:29:32 If you attack me

03:29:33 I'm gonna definitely

03:29:34 Give it back

03:29:35 100%

03:29:36 What you're saying

03:29:36 Is not wrong 1.00

03:29:36 But so long as

03:29:37 Your attack

03:29:39 Is hurtful enough

03:29:40 Now if a child

03:29:40 Let me give you an example

03:29:41 If I walk out of this place

03:29:42 Now and a child

03:29:43 Hits me

03:29:44 Allah will move on 1.00

03:29:45 If a grown man

03:29:46 Hits me

03:29:47 I'm not gonna say

03:29:47 Oh give me the other cheek

03:29:48 I'm gonna give you

03:29:49 I'll show them

03:29:53 So the same thing

03:29:55 The same

03:29:56 Application with social media

03:29:58 If

03:29:59 If it's hurtful enough

03:30:01 I'm gonna respond

03:30:02 I get what you're saying

03:30:03 If it's hurtful

03:30:03 You don't turn the other cheek

03:30:05 Yeah

03:30:05 So if they label me

03:30:07 I'm gonna label you

03:30:08 What you're saying

03:30:08 Has other evidences

03:30:09 In the Quran

03:30:09 Allah will give you 0.99

03:30:12 Allah will give you 0.99

03:30:13 From the word

03:30:13 If you don't give you

03:30:14 Which is on the same

03:30:15 This is

03:30:15 If someone speaks badly

03:30:16 You can speak badly as well

03:30:18 Probably say this person

03:30:19 Done injustice towards me

03:30:20 This is one of the explanations

03:30:22 So I agree with that

03:30:23 But

03:30:23 Now let's compare

03:30:25 A person whose social media

03:30:27 Has a following

03:30:27 Remember

03:30:28 Coming back to what I was saying

03:30:29 To a person

03:30:30 Me and him

03:30:31 You mentioned this before

03:30:33 So I'll respond

03:30:33 Actually the thing is

03:30:34 If you leave certain groups

03:30:35 To keep talking

03:30:36 Keep talking

03:30:37 What happens in the minds

03:30:38 Of the masses

03:30:39 Is that confidence

03:30:40 Translates into their right 1.00

03:30:42 Let me give an example

03:30:43 No no no

03:30:44 I disagree

03:30:44 No no no

03:30:46 I'll tell you

03:30:47 Because the same group

03:30:48 That we can't

03:30:49 Have issues with bro

03:30:51 Akhi people 0.66

03:30:52 With sincerity

03:30:54 Will come out

03:30:56 And correct them

03:30:56 And make them look

03:30:57 Sometimes 1.00

03:30:58 Stupid 1.00

03:30:58 But akhi 1.00

03:30:58 Let me tell you

03:30:59 Let me tell you

03:31:00 Allah defends the believers

03:31:02 Allah azza wa jala defends the believers

03:31:04 Sometimes

03:31:04 But let me explain

03:31:05 Let me explain

03:31:06 Sometimes

03:31:06 50-50

03:31:07 Sometimes

03:31:08 If you let them

03:31:08 They will continue

03:31:09 They will continue

03:31:11 Akhi

03:31:11 So if there's no

03:31:12 Response

03:31:13 But this is where

03:31:15 The jaw breaking

03:31:15 Is involved

03:31:16 No no

03:31:16 There was

03:31:17 There was

03:31:17 No no no

03:31:18 Akhi

03:31:18 I don't condone

03:31:19 Violence bro

03:31:20 But some people

03:31:20 Need to get

03:31:21 Let me

03:31:22 Let me

03:31:23 See the responses

03:31:24 Do you see this point

03:31:26 Akhi

03:31:26 The back and forth

03:31:27 Let me be direct

03:31:29 Someone will come

03:31:30 And say

03:31:31 Akhi

03:31:31 Amen

03:31:31 Where has he studied

03:31:32 Yeah

03:31:33 Why is he even

03:31:35 Talking about deen

03:31:35 Yes

03:31:36 Okay

03:31:36 Very good questions

03:31:37 He comes back

03:31:38 He says

03:31:38 I'm akhi

03:31:39 Amen

03:31:39 Layman

03:31:39 Yeah

03:31:39 No problem

03:31:40 But okay

03:31:41 He leaves it as that

03:31:42 Okay

03:31:42 So the layman

03:31:43 Now is listening

03:31:44 Okay

03:31:44 Well he's being humble

03:31:45 But these guys

03:31:46 Have raised some

03:31:47 Interesting concerns

03:31:48 Where has he studied

03:31:49 Why is he talking

03:31:50 Okay

03:31:51 What's a good response

03:31:52 Akhi

03:31:52 No problem

03:31:53 Where have I studied

03:31:53 Where have you studied

03:31:54 Because the same person

03:31:56 Who's asking that question

03:31:57 No no no

03:31:58 But hold on

03:32:00 What's your level

03:32:02 Of training

03:32:03 Where have you studied

03:32:05 Who has given you

03:32:05 Ijazah

03:32:06 Even from your own

03:32:07 Scholars that you mentioned

03:32:08 This one and that one

03:32:09 I want to know

03:32:10 Where's your Tazkiyah 1.00

03:32:10 Can I see it

03:32:11 Because I asked

03:32:12 For these people's Tazkiyah 1.00

03:32:12 By the way

03:32:13 From their own scholars

03:32:13 I already asked that question

03:32:16 I said

03:32:17 Can I see your Tazkiyah 0.99

03:32:19 So I was on

03:32:21 Tele links

03:32:21 I was on

03:32:22 Zoom calls

03:32:23 And stuff like that

03:32:23 And I studied

03:32:24 From this person

03:32:24 I said

03:32:25 No problem

03:32:25 I said

03:32:26 So why are you

03:32:26 Attacking this other layman

03:32:27 When you're a layman yourself

03:32:28 So why are you

03:32:30 Attacking

03:32:30 Why are you

03:32:30 Making yourself

03:32:31 Into judge

03:32:32 During execution

03:32:32 You're labelling him

03:32:34 As Mubtada

03:32:34 You have no right

03:32:35 To label anybody

03:32:36 As Mubtada

03:32:36 Who are you

03:32:38 Mubtada

03:32:39 Mubtada

03:32:39 Innovator

03:32:40 So someone will say

03:32:40 This person is not on the Sunnah

03:32:41 Yeah

03:32:42 Did you say a Shia

03:32:43 He's not following the tradition

03:32:44 You can say that a Shia 0.99

03:32:45 Has moved to that

03:32:46 According to the majority of Sunnis

03:32:47 The 12 verse

03:32:48 The Japanese 0.51

03:32:48 Yeah

03:32:48 But in general

03:32:50 When we talk about

03:32:50 The lay people 0.52

03:32:51 Lay Muslim people

03:32:52 We don't

03:32:53 It's not our job

03:32:54 To deliver these rulings

03:32:55 Do you get it

03:32:56 Leave people alone

03:32:57 But if you're going to

03:32:58 Label them like that

03:32:59 Then let them label

03:33:00 You're a jahil 1.00

03:33:01 I agree with what you're saying

03:33:03 The way they deal with the situation

03:33:08 Like my bro

03:33:09 You're making videos

03:33:10 And then guess what

03:33:11 Like there was a man

03:33:12 That was mocking me

03:33:13 About getting stabbed

03:33:14 I figure to myself

03:33:16 Brother

03:33:17 Like

03:33:18 I've contacted you

03:33:19 Not by video

03:33:20 But by text message

03:33:21 I still got a message

03:33:22 Bro

03:33:23 I looked up to you

03:33:24 Like oh the brother

03:33:25 This and this and that

03:33:27 You had my number

03:33:27 If I made any mistakes

03:33:28 No that stuff ain't going to work for you bro

03:33:30 Huh

03:33:30 It's not how you deal with them

03:33:31 No no

03:33:32 But this approach

03:33:33 I take

03:33:34 You know why

03:33:34 You should

03:33:35 One extreme to another

03:33:36 Employ the same approach

03:33:38 As you did in the hunt

03:33:38 No no no no

03:33:39 That's a better approach

03:33:40 No no no no 1.00

03:33:43 Shit 1.00

03:33:44 Bro 1.00

03:33:45 For me it's one extreme or the other

03:33:47 I made a really nice

03:33:48 And approach

03:33:48 What made you say this

03:33:50 What made you do that

03:33:50 I had no choice

03:33:52 There was mistakes

03:33:53 But I corrected those mistakes

03:33:55 Bro he's not looking for

03:33:56 No no no

03:33:57 But I understand

03:33:57 You'll put yourself

03:33:58 I think he's doing a good point

03:33:59 For the people listening

03:34:01 For the people listening

03:34:02 So I approach you

03:34:03 And the response is

03:34:04 It shows the intention

03:34:05 Behind the actions

03:34:06 Thank you

03:34:07 So I approach you

03:34:07 You'll be naive with this guy

03:34:10 No no no

03:34:11 I get you

03:34:12 Just the fact that you're

03:34:13 Explaining yourself to them

03:34:14 No no I get you

03:34:15 No no but I didn't explain it to him

03:34:16 Go on

03:34:16 He's asking why

03:34:17 You had my number

03:34:18 You could have approached me

03:34:20 Out of command

03:34:21 And actually did what

03:34:22 I would have corrected myself

03:34:24 And at the same time

03:34:26 This is the original video

03:34:27 This is what I said

03:34:29 Why has it been cropped up

03:34:31 From your side

03:34:32 Your side cropped it out

03:34:34 This is the original

03:34:35 Do you know what I'm saying to you

03:34:36 I agree with you

03:34:38 I agree with you

03:34:39 I want to say something

03:34:40 The three of us can say here

03:34:41 Right

03:34:41 Which should be a very important

03:34:43 As a rule

03:34:44 If you guys agree with me

03:34:45 Everyone else sitting down as well

03:34:46 If you follow

03:34:47 Whoever you follow on social media

03:34:49 And you see there are videos

03:34:50 Between Muslims 1.00

03:34:51 Back and forth 0.97

03:34:52 Don't watch them

03:34:53 The facts

03:34:54 Don't watch them

03:34:54 From any side

03:34:55 From any side

03:34:56 From any side

03:34:57 Look look

03:34:58 This is for the layman

03:34:59 Because look

03:35:00 My issue

03:35:00 Speaking to you right now

03:35:01 About the back

03:35:01 Or you giving them

03:35:02 Like material to respond

03:35:04 And talk

03:35:04 Back and forth

03:35:05 And this and that

03:35:05 Which increases it

03:35:06 And it continues to happen

03:35:07 My point is

03:35:08 My worry only

03:35:09 Is the layman

03:35:10 Because I told you

03:35:11 I've seen the aftermath of it

03:35:13 I see when people come

03:35:14 Their confusion

03:35:15 Not understanding

03:35:15 Who's on the right side

03:35:16 Who's the brother

03:35:17 Who should I follow

03:35:18 This person doesn't

03:35:19 The thing is

03:35:20 If we all say to the Muslim 1.00

03:35:21 Layman

03:35:22 Take this as a point of advice

03:35:23 Anyone watching

03:35:24 Take this as a point of advice

03:35:26 You see back and forth

03:35:27 You won't watch the brother

03:35:28 Watch him

03:35:28 But in the back and forth

03:35:29 Don't watch

03:35:30 Don't watch

03:35:30 Don't like

03:35:31 Don't go on the other person's 0.92

03:35:32 Comment section

03:35:33 Cursing the other Muslim 1.00

03:35:34 And this Muslim 0.99

03:35:34 Going cursing the other Muslim 1.00

03:35:35 If it is between 0.99

03:35:36 Hijab 0.93

03:35:37 And whoever it is

03:35:38 Human nature is that

03:35:39 They're going to do it anyway

03:35:39 No but you can advise otherwise

03:35:41 You can advise otherwise

03:35:42 At least you take yourself outside

03:35:44 You take yourself outside

03:35:45 Of responsibility

03:35:46 Right

03:35:46 So my issue

03:35:48 I know just one more thing

03:35:48 It's like

03:35:49 This might sound controversial

03:35:50 But this back and forth

03:35:51 I'm not involved

03:35:52 This

03:35:52 No no

03:35:54 This

03:35:54 This stuff

03:35:55 We were talking about social media

03:35:57 I think people have this rosy picture

03:35:59 Of human nature

03:36:00 And oh

03:36:01 You know

03:36:02 Why don't you guys

03:36:02 Conduct yourself

03:36:05 Of decorum

03:36:05 Why don't you do this and that

03:36:06 If you see some of the harshest

03:36:08 And the most

03:36:09 Pernicious

03:36:10 Back and forth

03:36:11 That have ever happened

03:36:12 It's between Muslim scholars 1.00

03:36:14 Classical period

03:36:15 They're attacking each other

03:36:16 In a way

03:36:17 Which is very bad

03:36:17 Like Ali Lahwazi 1.00

03:36:18 For example

03:36:20 But these are exceptions

03:36:24 But these are exceptions

03:36:26 It's an important thing

03:36:27 You know

03:36:29 You agree the people

03:36:31 Do you agree the people watching this?

03:36:32 Mama! 1.00

03:36:34 Do you agree the people watching this?

03:36:37 In the history

03:36:39 When we look at these things

03:36:41 Like as Muslims 0.75

03:36:42 We look at these things

03:36:43 That happened perhaps

03:36:43 Between certain scholars

03:36:44 We don't look at it

03:36:45 In a positive light

03:36:46 Something important to keep in mind

03:36:48 We don't say

03:36:49 Okay this was a positive thing

03:36:50 That Islam teaches 0.99

03:36:51 That we should do

03:36:51 So it does happen

03:36:53 But it doesn't mean

03:36:54 That we should replicate it

03:36:54 Because we agree

03:36:55 That this is not the correct thing

03:36:56 To take place

03:36:57 So what we're saying is

03:36:58 There are people who follow you

03:37:01 There are thousands

03:37:02 Of millions of people

03:37:03 Who follow you

03:37:03 Those people

03:37:05 Take you as an example

03:37:06 Like it or not

03:37:06 Even if you tell them

03:37:07 Again human nature

03:37:08 If you tell them

03:37:08 Don't do it

03:37:09 They will still do it

03:37:09 So the behaviour that we do

03:37:12 How we conduct ourselves

03:37:12 How we engage people

03:37:13 Let's use an extreme example

03:37:15 Because I think right now

03:37:16 At the back of the room

03:37:16 No, no, no

03:37:17 But you said something extreme

03:37:18 I'll tell you what

03:37:19 You said to me

03:37:21 That the best way

03:37:22 That you could deal with them

03:37:23 Is by how I used to deal

03:37:25 With them on the road

03:37:26 My brother

03:37:27 But let me explain that

03:37:28 Let me explain that

03:37:29 We're not trying to shed

03:37:30 The blood of a Muslim 1.00

03:37:31 Correct?

03:37:31 Sometimes you can

03:37:32 Let me explain

03:37:33 Let me explain

03:37:34 Hey

03:37:35 Hey

03:37:36 Give me a second

03:37:38 I'm free from that side of the gym

03:37:39 I'm like

03:37:41 He's going to clarify

03:37:42 Can I interrupt real quick

03:37:43 Before we continue this conversation

03:37:44 I want to say thank you

03:37:45 For keeping the restaurant open this late

03:37:46 Thank you so much

03:37:47 Can you give a quick shout out

03:37:50 To this restaurant please

03:37:51 Thank you so much

03:37:55 I appreciate it

03:37:56 IG

03:37:56 Guys make sure you guys follow up

03:38:00 I just talked to Asgweru al-Musallim bro

03:38:03 So let me tell you

03:38:05 What I meant by that

03:38:06 Okay

03:38:06 He needs to clarify

03:38:09 That if two groups of Muslims 1.00

03:38:18 Are fighting each other

03:38:19 Two groups of Muslims 0.90

03:38:20 Are fighting each other

03:38:21 What does Allah say

03:38:23 The first thing is what

03:38:24 Try and create reconciliation

03:38:26 Between the two

03:38:27 If one of them is oppressing the other

03:38:31 Fight one who is oppressing

03:38:34 Did you get me

03:38:36 So there is even Quranic permission

03:38:38 To fight Muslims 1.00

03:38:39 Shed blood of Muslims 1.00

03:38:41 In certain cases 0.56

03:38:42 Now

03:38:42 If you have two groups of people

03:38:46 You have to explain

03:38:47 So from a higher perspective

03:38:51 You can say this

03:38:52 If that's the case

03:38:54 If that is the case

03:38:55 That in some case in Sharia

03:38:57 That you're allowed to fight another Muslim 1.00

03:38:59 I think it's rosy and idealist thinking

03:39:01 To think

03:39:01 Well you know

03:39:02 Let's just leave them to

03:39:03 If there's one person

03:39:05 Who's attacking somebody else

03:39:06 And is clearly oppressive

03:39:07 So for example

03:39:08 There's a group of people

03:39:09 That are calling you muhtada 1.00

03:39:09 I consider that to be oppression

03:39:11 Sorry to say

03:39:11 I agree

03:39:12 Because what right do they have to say that

03:39:14 They're taking your rights away

03:39:16 As a Muslim

03:39:16 So what I do then

03:39:18 But there's a new one now

03:39:19 Aki Illuminati 0.94

03:39:20 No no but

03:39:21 So

03:39:21 Allah's a new one still 1.00

03:39:23 So the point is this

03:39:25 Is that

03:39:25 We've already advised this group

03:39:27 We said listen

03:39:27 Can you stop

03:39:28 Because you're not qualified

03:39:29 You're not this

03:39:30 You're not that

03:39:30 Stop

03:39:31 We try to do Islam

03:39:32 No but they have this argument

03:39:33 Mohammed

03:39:33 Where you've said something publicly

03:39:35 We're going to address you publicly

03:39:37 No I get it

03:39:38 We have this argument as well

03:39:39 We've advised you

03:39:40 Remember you're always thinking

03:39:42 About this Eamon bro

03:39:42 In an age

03:39:43 You're the judge

03:39:44 And you're the defendant

03:39:45 But we have to think of this

03:39:47 As a symmetrical way

03:39:48 We are judging them

03:39:49 As much as they are judging us

03:39:50 On the fighting

03:39:52 So on this point

03:39:54 We started off by saying

03:39:56 We tried your approach

03:39:59 We started with your approach

03:40:00 Which is the approach of

03:40:02 Brother why don't you come and contact me

03:40:03 Yeah

03:40:04 Now which is what

03:40:06 But guess what you said to that

03:40:07 Hold on

03:40:07 Because we said to my brother

03:40:09 His reply was

03:40:11 If I made any

03:40:13 By coming out with a video

03:40:15 In other words

03:40:16 Mocking you 0.96

03:40:17 Getting stabbed 0.88

03:40:18 Yeah

03:40:18 My brother

03:40:19 Correct me publicly

03:40:20 I said brother

03:40:21 I'm a big man

03:40:22 I don't need to do this

03:40:23 Internet back on forward to

03:40:24 When I see you

03:40:25 I see you

03:40:26 None of us

03:40:27 None of us

03:40:28 You can't see that

03:40:29 Isn't that baiting

03:40:33 No no no

03:40:34 That's baiting

03:40:37 They want that

03:40:39 No no no

03:40:39 Don't call me

03:40:41 Respond

03:40:42 Thank you

03:40:43 That's me

03:40:44 What I'm saying

03:40:48 Is this

03:40:48 At this point

03:40:50 You have a group

03:40:50 Of the ummah

03:40:51 They're a group

03:40:52 Of the ummah

03:40:53 The muslim people 0.98

03:40:53 That are attacking 0.99

03:40:54 Everyone except for their own 0.63

03:40:56 Yeah

03:40:56 So do the

03:40:57 That

03:40:59 Are they

03:41:00 Deservant

03:41:01 Of this

03:41:03 Title

03:41:03 That

03:41:04 They are now

03:41:05 The

03:41:05 They are now

03:41:07 The transgressors

03:41:08 Of the other people 0.99

03:41:08 I think yes

03:41:09 I think yes

03:41:10 So now

03:41:11 I think that

03:41:12 We're not going to fight them physically

03:41:13 Because they're not fighting us physically

03:41:15 But we will fight them

03:41:17 With the tongue

03:41:17 Just as they're fighting everyone else

03:41:18 With the tongue

03:41:19 So now

03:41:20 My view of these kind of groups

03:41:21 Yeah

03:41:22 That come out

03:41:22 Like ISIS for example

03:41:23 Everyone was condemning them

03:41:24 Why was

03:41:25 I'm from Muslim

03:41:26 Please relax

03:41:27 I'm from Iraq

03:41:28 Please don't mention this

03:41:30 Nevertheless

03:41:30 ISIS everyone was condemning them

03:41:33 Okay

03:41:33 So why ISIS

03:41:34 Everyone condemns them

03:41:35 What this other group

03:41:36 The Madhali for example

03:41:37 This group

03:41:38 Or the S-Pubs

03:41:39 What you want to call them

03:41:40 This particular group

03:41:41 No one wants to condemn them

03:41:42 In the same way

03:41:42 They're both doing the same

03:41:44 Kind of thing

03:41:44 Which is they're doing

03:41:45 They're doing transgression

03:41:46 Over the rest of the Ummah 0.91

03:41:47 Of course

03:41:48 But it's only because

03:41:48 It's only because ISIS

03:41:49 Have been cross

03:41:50 Red crossed

03:41:51 By the

03:41:52 By the western governments

03:41:53 That's why you need to

03:41:54 Do barat of them

03:41:56 For legal reasons

03:41:56 Okay

03:41:57 Well why don't you do barat

03:41:58 Of these guys

03:41:58 For Islamic reasons 1.00

03:42:00 Are you a coward? 1.00

03:42:01 So look 1.00

03:42:01 I get your position

03:42:03 So my position is this

03:42:04 Is that

03:42:04 If they're attacking

03:42:05 Your brother

03:42:06 Don't wait for them

03:42:07 To attack you

03:42:08 In order to respond to them

03:42:09 Yeah okay

03:42:10 They're already attacking you

03:42:11 You know

03:42:11 Attack them back

03:42:12 I understand your position

03:42:13 You know the position

03:42:14 His position

03:42:15 Hijab's position 0.79

03:42:16 Is 0.88

03:42:17 What happened to my situation

03:42:18 Yeah

03:42:19 Your situation is this

03:42:21 No no no Abel

03:42:21 Everyone defended me

03:42:23 Which I didn't even know

03:42:23 I don't know your situation

03:42:25 Some people

03:42:25 Can you tell me your story?

03:42:28 Some guys

03:42:29 I'm not sure you've heard of these guys

03:42:31 No names

03:42:32 No names

03:42:33 No names

03:42:34 No names

03:42:35 Blair that teeth 1.00

03:42:36 Wow it's out there

03:42:37 No names

03:42:38 These guys attacked him

03:42:39 Because look

03:42:40 This just fuels

03:42:41 This is the issue

03:42:41 Look

03:42:42 I'm gonna tell you

03:42:42 Versily or physically

03:42:44 No no

03:42:44 I wish physically

03:42:46 I wish 0.98

03:42:47 They attacked him

03:42:50 They attacked his honor

03:42:51 For no reason

03:42:52 So in my opinion

03:42:53 As a Muslim

03:42:53 I say I'll defend him

03:42:54 Okay

03:42:54 If I saw someone

03:42:56 Get slapped in the street

03:42:57 I'll defend him 0.99

03:42:57 I look as a woman

03:42:59 So I don't care

03:43:00 Hijab has a position 1.00

03:43:01 I understand your position

03:43:02 Your position is

03:43:03 Look

03:43:03 These people

03:43:04 If you leave them

03:43:05 You cannot leave them

03:43:05 You have to also use

03:43:06 The same weapon against them

03:43:08 The one they're using against you

03:43:09 Right

03:43:09 I understand that is your position

03:43:10 I disagree with you

03:43:11 On the position

03:43:11 We can disagree on things

03:43:12 Right

03:43:13 The reason I disagree

03:43:14 Is two things

03:43:15 The first thing is

03:43:16 I see that

03:43:18 As still things happen

03:43:19 Between me and that person

03:43:20 And when I look

03:43:21 Is that coffee in there

03:43:23 The reason

03:43:27 The reason I would disagree

03:43:28 Is I see

03:43:29 The effect of the lame

03:43:31 Because I'm looking at it

03:43:32 All of what is going on

03:43:33 Right now

03:43:33 I agree

03:43:34 Why

03:43:35 The effect

03:43:35 Is taking

03:43:38 We're not going to be able to recognize

03:43:42 We're not going to be able to recognize

03:43:44 Who's right and who's wrong

03:43:45 These matters are above the pay grade

03:43:46 But if everyone comes out

03:43:47 And condemns that one group

03:43:48 Everyone will recognize it

03:43:49 But that's not going to happen

03:43:50 Why not

03:43:50 It's not going to happen

03:43:51 Because not everyone

03:43:52 Necessarily angry

03:43:53 We don't need more disunity

03:43:54 No no no

03:43:55 Let me ask you a question

03:43:57 You agree

03:43:58 No I don't agree

03:43:59 But I want to say

03:43:59 Let me explain

03:44:00 Let me ask you a question

03:44:01 Let me ask you a question

03:44:02 Do you have the same policy

03:44:04 What do you mean

03:44:06 With ISIS

03:44:06 Do you have the same policy

03:44:07 Of like

03:44:08 Let's not condemn them

03:44:08 Let's keep quiet

03:44:09 Because the lame man 0.59

03:44:10 Is going to stay quiet

03:44:11 The lame man is going to get confused

03:44:12 I do not speak about 0.84

03:44:13 I'm going to respond

03:44:14 I do not give them a lie

03:44:16 Unless someone mentions them

03:44:17 If there's a need to mention

03:44:18 There's a need to talk about them

03:44:19 I don't make videos about them

03:44:21 There's no need

03:44:21 You're ISIS

03:44:22 Yeah I don't need to

03:44:23 But if someone asks me

03:44:24 Yes

03:44:24 If someone asks me

03:44:25 What is your position

03:44:26 I'll say

03:44:26 This is what I say

03:44:27 These people

03:44:28 The behaviors

03:44:29 The actions of these two

03:44:29 Are not from Islam 1.00

03:44:30 Yeah

03:44:31 Right

03:44:31 And we therefore

03:44:33 Consider them

03:44:33 We therefore

03:44:34 Consider them as an oppressive group

03:44:36 Because not only

03:44:37 Because the problem

03:44:38 The damage they're doing

03:44:38 Yeah

03:44:39 Is not to an individual

03:44:40 To the whole image of Islam 1.00

03:44:41 Yeah same with Madkhal

03:44:42 No no

03:44:43 But there's a bit of a difference there

03:44:44 In the back and forth

03:44:45 In the back and forth

03:44:46 It becomes personal

03:44:47 Do you agree with this idea

03:44:48 It still becomes personal

03:44:49 But with ISIS

03:44:50 I have to do this

03:44:52 Why

03:44:52 I'm responding

03:44:53 Because the Western media

03:44:55 Is using ISIS 0.77

03:44:56 As this is the image of Islam 0.95

03:44:57 No but so what if the Western media

03:44:58 Why is that a tabit

03:44:59 No no

03:45:00 Why is that the

03:45:01 I said that the tabit

03:45:03 This is what I'm saying

03:45:03 Look I'm not disagreeing with you

03:45:05 I said you have an approach

03:45:06 And I have an approach

03:45:06 I understand your approach

03:45:07 Your approach is

03:45:08 Like if there is baghi

03:45:09 Let's do this

03:45:10 But there's something

03:45:10 Also you need to consider

03:45:12 The Ummah agrees 1.00

03:45:12 That this is a

03:45:13 Yes yes

03:45:13 But that's not the case

03:45:15 Do you agree

03:45:18 There are people

03:45:18 Who I would say

03:45:19 For example

03:45:19 The majority of them

03:45:20 No no

03:45:20 Just like ISIS 0.97

03:45:21 No no do you agree

03:45:22 There would be many people

03:45:23 Who I would say

03:45:24 Personally

03:45:24 I'm not from that group

03:45:25 There are people

03:45:26 Who are not from that group

03:45:29 Who would think

03:45:30 That you've transgressed 0.96

03:45:31 In certain things

03:45:31 That you've done

03:45:32 That is a very fair

03:45:33 Fair point to make

03:45:34 So in order

03:45:35 For what you're saying

03:45:36 To happen

03:45:37 In order for what you're saying

03:45:39 In order for what you're saying

03:45:41 To happen

03:45:41 People have to first agree

03:45:43 That you are oppressed

03:45:44 Right

03:45:45 In this situation

03:45:46 First have to also

03:45:47 All agree

03:45:47 Okay there's oppression

03:45:48 Happening from one side

03:45:49 There's baghi 0.94

03:45:49 Taking place

03:45:50 And for that to happen

03:45:52 This is what I'm saying

03:45:52 This is what you're saying

03:45:53 Is everyone coming out

03:45:54 And doing this

03:45:55 It's not going to happen

03:45:55 Because not necessarily

03:45:56 Everyone agrees

03:45:57 That there is baghi

03:45:57 Taking place

03:45:58 But

03:45:58 No no

03:46:00 He's saying

03:46:00 That if everyone agrees

03:46:02 They will come out

03:46:03 The only way they will come out

03:46:04 Is that they have to accept

03:46:05 Because he's saying

03:46:06 If everyone comes out

03:46:07 Like it is with ISIS

03:46:08 That's not going to happen

03:46:09 Unless they all agree

03:46:10 That there is baghi

03:46:11 Do you get the point

03:46:11 I'm trying to make

03:46:12 So I'm telling him

03:46:12 In reality

03:46:13 It's never going to take place

03:46:14 Unless everyone agrees

03:46:16 That Mohammed Hijab 1.00

03:46:17 Is the one who's being

03:46:18 In this situation

03:46:19 Right

03:46:19 He's the one who's being oppressed

03:46:20 And there's baghi against him 0.99

03:46:21 So we all come out

03:46:22 But what happens is

03:46:23 There is always

03:46:24 Things in between

03:46:25 They look okay

03:46:26 Maybe some parts here

03:46:27 He's maybe wrong

03:46:28 Some parts here

03:46:28 And that's why

03:46:29 Let me ask you a question

03:46:30 The question of

03:46:31 Let's save the layman

03:46:32 From the confusion

03:46:33 Why is that a greater priority

03:46:36 Than to stop the baghi 1.00

03:46:38 Of a taifa baghi

03:46:39 Okay

03:46:40 What is the effect

03:46:41 The real

03:46:42 How much effect

03:46:43 Is it taking place

03:46:44 From this taifa baghi

03:46:44 You know you mentioned

03:46:45 Taifa baghi

03:46:46 I'm going to come

03:46:47 I wanted to respond

03:46:48 To that mentioning

03:46:49 In some text

03:46:49 From the Quran

03:46:50 If the two muslims 1.00

03:46:57 Meet with their swords 1.00

03:46:58 The killer and the person

03:47:00 Who's died

03:47:00 Both of them are in here

03:47:01 You cannot just go

03:47:02 And like you know

03:47:03 Have a knife 1.00

03:47:03 On your muslim brother 1.00

03:47:04 And Uthman

03:47:05 What happened to him

03:47:06 In the fitna

03:47:06 You're telling him

03:47:07 These people are becoming loud

03:47:09 Yeah

03:47:11 So it's

03:47:11 It's all

03:47:12 Weighing the

03:47:14 So

03:47:15 What happened is

03:47:17 Uthman

03:47:18 He quoted this hadith as well

03:47:20 Right

03:47:20 When Ali came to him

03:47:22 Right

03:47:22 So

03:47:23 What I'm saying

03:47:25 For me

03:47:26 The reason I take

03:47:27 A different approach

03:47:28 To what you're saying

03:47:28 Right

03:47:29 I understand you take

03:47:30 Your approach

03:47:30 Right

03:47:30 Have they refuted you yet

03:47:32 Not that I know

03:47:34 Here's the question

03:47:35 When they refute you

03:47:36 They prove you right 0.95

03:47:37 No but would you

03:47:38 This video is an example

03:47:39 If they start to do it

03:47:41 They prove you right 0.95

03:47:42 If they refute you

03:47:43 Would you then

03:47:44 Refute them

03:47:45 Would you retaliate

03:47:45 No

03:47:46 I said one of two

03:47:48 Remember my way

03:47:49 My ways always be the same

03:47:50 This way

03:47:50 If they're right about something

03:47:51 I'll come on

03:47:52 I'll say okay

03:47:52 What would there be a response

03:47:53 From you

03:47:53 This is what I said

03:47:54 If someone comes out

03:47:55 And corrects me on something

03:47:57 Which they're right about

03:47:58 Right

03:47:59 That I see

03:48:00 What's wrong about

03:48:00 What is bugging

03:48:00 No but give me a second

03:48:01 To just

03:48:02 You're a bit like

03:48:04 In the back

03:48:05 Can we leave out one more

03:48:07 Back and forth

03:48:07 Point on this subject

03:48:08 And then can we go

03:48:09 I want to talk about more

03:48:10 Yeah sorry

03:48:11 This is not extreme

03:48:11 This is Dawah

03:48:12 Like really high level

03:48:13 That's some kind of stuff

03:48:14 His audience are like

03:48:17 Majority non-Muslims 0.99

03:48:18 So they have no idea

03:48:19 What you guys are talking about

03:48:20 Boom

03:48:21 Oh okay yeah

03:48:21 He forgot we're streaming

03:48:24 I mentioned it

03:48:27 A couple of times before

03:48:27 Because I know

03:48:28 I mentioned it

03:48:30 But it's very relevant

03:48:31 For a lot of Muslims

03:48:31 In the west to be honest

03:48:32 That's why we're talking about it

03:48:34 But yeah

03:48:34 Your audience

03:48:35 Yeah it's your stream

03:48:35 And then you know

03:48:36 You're inviting us

03:48:37 But you know

03:48:38 It's Ramadan

03:48:40 So I want to speak about

03:48:40 Some positive things

03:48:41 He's right

03:48:43 He's got us there

03:48:44 Can I ask you

03:48:47 If we can go around it

03:48:48 Just a simple question

03:48:50 To make everything

03:48:51 Less argumentative

03:48:52 Can I ask you

03:48:52 What's your favorite thing

03:48:53 About Islam

03:48:54 I just want to

03:48:56 Say one thing

03:48:56 Very simple

03:48:57 One thing before

03:48:57 This is not really

03:48:58 Like any

03:48:59 This is just us

03:49:00 Discussing

03:49:01 No it's a disagreement

03:49:01 Because we don't want

03:49:02 Anyone to think

03:49:03 That this is a fight

03:49:04 Or argumentation

03:49:04 We just discuss it

03:49:06 This is just us

03:49:10 Discussing certain issues

03:49:11 That we might have

03:49:12 It's an important

03:49:13 It's an important subject

03:49:13 And next I do want

03:49:14 To ask you about

03:49:15 The favorite thing

03:49:15 About Islam you said

03:49:16 I'll let him say

03:49:16 Afterwards I want to ask

03:49:18 There's many Christians

03:49:19 Watching so I want to ask

03:49:20 The truth about Jesus

03:49:22 And the Quran

03:49:22 And we can speak about that

03:49:23 I think that'd be good

03:49:24 But first thing

03:49:25 If we go around

03:49:26 I'm actually very curious

03:49:27 About that

03:49:27 What's your favorite thing

03:49:28 About Islam

03:49:29 During the month of Ramadan

03:49:30 Let's start with Warner

03:49:33 How about that

03:49:34 Warner you haven't

03:49:34 Been speaking much

03:49:35 My favorite thing

03:49:36 About Islam is

03:49:37 It's the truth

03:49:37 That's it

03:49:39 Simple as that

03:49:40 It's the truth

03:49:40 It's the ultimate truth

03:49:42 And

03:49:42 Yeah

03:49:43 That's it

03:49:44 It's the ultimate truth

03:49:45 That's my favorite part

03:49:46 About it

03:49:46 We're just

03:49:47 We can't be defeated

03:49:49 Because we have the truth

03:49:50 If you have the truth

03:49:51 You're always going to win

03:49:52 No matter what

03:49:52 So

03:49:53 That's what I love about it

03:49:54 We're fighting a battle

03:49:57 That we can't lose

03:49:57 We die

03:49:58 We win

03:49:59 We don't die

03:50:00 We still win

03:50:01 You know what I mean

03:50:02 So it's like

03:50:02 You're on the winning team

03:50:03 So if you want W's

03:50:04 Join Islam 1.00

03:50:05 If you want to be a loser 1.00

03:50:06 Don't join 1.00

03:50:08 Go to hell 1.00

03:50:09 Yeah go to hell 1.00

03:50:10 Basically 0.99

03:50:12 You know what I mean

03:50:13 Okay let me

03:50:15 Can I ask you the same question

03:50:16 What do I love about Islam

03:50:17 You said

03:50:18 Look

03:50:18 You asked two questions

03:50:20 What do you love about Islam 1.00

03:50:23 In Ramadan

03:50:24 Yeah

03:50:24 Right

03:50:24 Yeah

03:50:25 So what do I love about Islam 0.98

03:50:27 Knowing that

03:50:28 I have a Lord

03:50:29 That is merciful

03:50:31 Yeah

03:50:32 To his servants

03:50:33 And he gives them opportunities

03:50:35 To repent

03:50:35 Whenever

03:50:37 You yourself

03:50:38 As a servant

03:50:39 Sees fit

03:50:40 So the hadith mentions

03:50:42 Obviously hadith is a saying

03:50:44 Of the prophet

03:50:44 Peace be upon him

03:50:45 He says

03:50:46 My doors of mercy

03:50:48 He says

03:50:48 Allah's doors of mercy

03:50:49 Is open

03:50:51 For as long

03:50:52 As you don't hear

03:50:54 The rattle of the soul

03:50:55 At your throat

03:50:56 Like for me

03:50:59 That stood out a lot bro

03:51:01 As if you will always have a chance

03:51:03 To repent

03:51:04 And having a Lord

03:51:05 That's merciful

03:51:06 You can't beat that

03:51:07 Like

03:51:07 Yes Allah is my Lord

03:51:09 And the prophet

03:51:10 Peace be upon him

03:51:11 You know

03:51:11 The prophet

03:51:12 And so on

03:51:12 No bro

03:51:13 We need to go to Allah directly 1.00

03:51:15 My guy

03:51:16 He's merciful

03:51:18 That's what I love

03:51:20 The fact that we have

03:51:20 A merciful God

03:51:21 What other religion

03:51:23 Gives you that

03:51:24 None

03:51:25 None

03:51:27 So

03:51:28 And he doesn't need to

03:51:28 Sacrifice

03:51:29 Any innocent human being 0.93

03:51:30 To forgive you

03:51:31 Yeah bro

03:51:32 And guess what

03:51:34 What I love about this

03:51:35 As well yeah

03:51:35 Is that you would

03:51:36 And because of his mercy

03:51:38 That outweighs so much

03:51:40 You would never enter

03:51:42 The paradise

03:51:43 Unless it's for his mercy

03:51:44 It's not even to do

03:51:45 With your worship

03:51:46 You would only enter

03:51:47 Paradise through mercy

03:51:48 It's nothing to do

03:51:49 With your worship

03:51:50 Nothing to do

03:51:50 With your five day prayers

03:51:51 This is just like bonuses

03:51:53 I think

03:51:53 This is for yourself

03:51:54 But the reality

03:51:55 Just imagine

03:51:57 Entering paradise

03:51:58 And Allah tells you

03:51:59 Entering through my mercy

03:52:00 Because I chose

03:52:01 In other words

03:52:02 He chose to give you mercy

03:52:04 Because he doesn't need to

03:52:05 Imagine you could have

03:52:06 Worshipped him for so many years

03:52:07 And your intentions were

03:52:09 In the wrong place

03:52:09 And he wasn't a grateful servant

03:52:11 And so on and so forth

03:52:12 You're so lucky

03:52:17 But yeah man

03:52:18 Having a merciful God

03:52:20 Is what I love about Islam

03:52:21 Alhamdulillah

03:52:22 Alhamdulillah

03:52:23 Muhammad Ali

03:52:24 Can I ask you the same question?

03:52:25 It's a difficult question honestly

03:52:27 Because

03:52:27 Yeah

03:52:28 There are so many

03:52:29 Beautiful things

03:52:31 But I would say that

03:52:31 Islam gives you 1.00

03:52:33 The understanding

03:52:34 Of everything

03:52:35 Like it literally

03:52:37 Gives you an understanding

03:52:37 Of what you're doing here

03:52:38 Right

03:52:39 It gives you an understanding

03:52:40 Of where you're gonna go

03:52:41 Like you don't end up

03:52:43 Being confused

03:52:43 And what this made me

03:52:45 Like appreciate

03:52:46 What made me appreciate

03:52:47 This so much more

03:52:47 Is that

03:52:48 Is I've seen

03:52:49 The amount of confusion

03:52:50 Confusion people

03:52:51 I've seen how it is

03:52:53 To live without guidance

03:52:54 To live in a state

03:52:55 Of misguidance

03:52:56 Not knowing

03:52:57 Like what is right and wrong

03:52:58 Making up things

03:52:58 As you go

03:52:59 You would never want

03:53:01 To be in a state like this

03:53:02 So the fact that Islam 0.98

03:53:04 There isn't anything

03:53:05 Like the companion

03:53:07 Of the Prophet

03:53:07 Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

03:53:07 Said

03:53:08 Yeah

03:53:08 There isn't anything in Islam 1.00

03:53:10 Even that bird flopping

03:53:11 In a swing

03:53:11 Except the Prophet 0.62

03:53:12 Told us about

03:53:12 Some knowledge about

03:53:13 Everything

03:53:15 That is around you

03:53:17 Everything

03:53:17 There is guidance

03:53:18 Like what to do here

03:53:19 What to

03:53:19 You never have to ask

03:53:20 What should I do

03:53:21 In this situation

03:53:22 Because there's always an answer

03:53:23 Islam always says 1.00

03:53:25 Do this or don't do that

03:53:25 And you will never

03:53:26 Find this in any other faith 0.93

03:53:27 Look

03:53:29 Compare this to any faith

03:53:30 You will find certain

03:53:31 Asks

03:53:31 They're not gonna give you

03:53:31 Like for example

03:53:32 Societal laws

03:53:33 They're not gonna give you

03:53:33 Governmental laws

03:53:34 They're not gonna give you

03:53:35 Dealings

03:53:35 They're not gonna give you

03:53:35 The things that

03:53:37 Certain people will claim

03:53:38 To be basic

03:53:38 But they themselves don't do it

03:53:40 Like something as simple

03:53:40 As basic as a Muslim 1.00

03:53:41 Going to the washroom

03:53:42 We wash ourselves

03:53:43 Right

03:53:44 People will say

03:53:45 People will say

03:53:46 Something simple

03:53:47 But the other people

03:53:47 Are not doing

03:53:48 Not Muslims are not doing 1.00

03:53:49 Washing yourself 0.53

03:53:50 After finishing

03:53:51 Using water

03:53:51 Because if I throw up

03:53:53 On this arm

03:53:53 And I wipe it with a tissue

03:53:55 It's not clean now

03:53:56 Is it

03:53:56 I have to use

03:53:57 Some sort of a liquid

03:53:58 To clean it

03:53:59 So when you go to

03:54:00 This is something

03:54:00 People will say

03:54:01 It's small

03:54:02 But no

03:54:02 This purification

03:54:03 Form of purification

03:54:05 People say

03:54:06 Oh simple this and that

03:54:07 Look at the prophet

03:54:08 Teaching you this

03:54:08 But you're not doing it

03:54:09 This is a very simple thing

03:54:11 That you want to talk about

03:54:12 So guidance to the

03:54:13 Very simple aspects

03:54:15 The anything

03:54:15 How to sleep

03:54:16 Where to sleep

03:54:17 What to sleep

03:54:17 Before you sleep

03:54:18 Which side to sleep on

03:54:19 It gives you an understanding

03:54:21 Of everything

03:54:21 And yeah

03:54:22 This is

03:54:22 I would say

03:54:23 This is the best thing

03:54:24 What about you mate

03:54:25 Muhammad Azal

03:54:26 Do you have something in mind

03:54:27 Your favorite aspect

03:54:29 Of Islam

03:54:30 And maybe that comes to mind

03:54:31 During the month of Ramadan

03:54:32 Favorite aspect

03:54:34 That's a very interesting question

03:54:35 Like

03:54:36 Do you know like

03:54:38 The main thing about Islam 0.94

03:54:40 Is the worship of God

03:54:41 And the submission to Allah 0.62

03:54:44 And that is

03:54:46 Effectively realizing

03:54:47 The basic human function

03:54:49 So if

03:54:50 If someone hasn't realized that

03:54:53 Then they're effectively aimless

03:54:55 And so it gives

03:54:56 It's about purpose I think

03:54:58 It's the way

03:54:59 The question of

03:55:00 What is the purpose in life

03:55:01 That is the most fundamental question

03:55:03 Any human being can ask

03:55:04 What am I doing here

03:55:05 Islam offers an explanation for that 1.00

03:55:07 And so

03:55:09 If you don't have an explanation for that

03:55:11 Everything else falls apart in your life

03:55:12 You won't be able to live a meaningful life

03:55:14 Right

03:55:15 You can't

03:55:15 You can try your best

03:55:17 To find your own purpose

03:55:18 Quote on quote

03:55:18 But it's not

03:55:19 It's not objective

03:55:20 It's not a solid purpose

03:55:21 So if

03:55:22 If you have

03:55:23 Iman

03:55:24 True faith

03:55:24 In the fact that you've got

03:55:26 A creator

03:55:28 That created the universe

03:55:29 The three most important questions

03:55:31 Where did I come from

03:55:32 What am I doing here

03:55:34 And where am I going

03:55:35 These are the three most important questions

03:55:36 Islam answers all those three questions 0.90

03:55:38 You will not find another religion 0.99

03:55:41 Which satisfactorily

03:55:43 Answers those three questions

03:55:44 In a way which is impervious to irrationalism

03:55:47 It's these three questions

03:55:49 Where did I come from

03:55:50 Atheism

03:55:51 For example

03:55:52 Let's take that as an example

03:55:53 How is it

03:55:53 Atheism doesn't offer any answer for that

03:55:56 For example

03:55:56 Agnosticism offers no answer

03:55:58 Christianity has a modelled answer 0.99

03:56:00 They don't even know like

03:56:02 The Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit

03:56:03 Which one is it that

03:56:04 It got us to be

03:56:05 It's a confused answer

03:56:06 Judaism is an exclusive 1.00

03:56:08 It starts

03:56:09 For Jewish people

03:56:11 It's not really

03:56:12 A proselytizing religion 0.90

03:56:14 So

03:56:14 Where did I come from

03:56:15 What am I doing here

03:56:17 You're here

03:56:17 To obey the laws of God

03:56:19 That's what you're here to do

03:56:20 For no other reason than

03:56:21 Because God deserves it

03:56:23 Exactly

03:56:24 That's the main reason

03:56:25 I want to bring up

03:56:26 Something that I heard

03:56:27 Kanye West

03:56:27 He goes by Yeh obviously

03:56:29 He was saying today

03:56:30 That he started to lose

03:56:31 Faith in Jesus

03:56:33 Because

03:56:33 He's not getting

03:56:35 What he asked for

03:56:36 From Jesus

03:56:37 And I think

03:56:38 That's what I noticed

03:56:38 From a lot of Christians 0.99

03:56:39 And when I was a Christian

03:56:40 Is that

03:56:41 You think that prayer

03:56:42 That you're supposed to get something

03:56:44 Specifically out of prayer

03:56:45 You don't pray because

03:56:46 You're supposed to

03:56:46 Because out of submission

03:56:47 To the one God

03:56:49 You pray because

03:56:50 You're looking for something

03:56:50 Transaction

03:56:51 You're looking

03:56:52 You want to see direct results

03:56:53 Yeah

03:56:54 How do people that are new to Islam

03:56:56 How do you get rid of that sort of

03:56:58 There's a hadith on that actually

03:57:00 A very interesting hadith

03:57:00 Which says that

03:57:02 There's different ways

03:57:04 In which a prayer is responded to

03:57:05 Either Allah

03:57:05 Will respond to it directly

03:57:07 Or that he will postpone it

03:57:09 Or that he will make it

03:57:11 Some kind of reward

03:57:12 For somebody in the hereafter

03:57:13 But not every prayer

03:57:15 Needs to be answered

03:57:15 God is not your butler

03:57:16 Effectively

03:57:17 Do you know what I mean

03:57:19 It's like we have this relationship

03:57:20 Entitled

03:57:20 Narcissism you're talking about

03:57:21 It's this entitlement

03:57:22 Like God has to serve me

03:57:23 I've been praying to God

03:57:25 For all this time

03:57:25 This life is a test

03:57:28 We're God's butler

03:57:29 We're here to serve him

03:57:30 Exactly

03:57:31 This life is a test

03:57:33 It's to see

03:57:34 Where you stand

03:57:35 That's what this life is about

03:57:36 This life is not about

03:57:37 Trying to get the best out of it

03:57:39 And God should give me this

03:57:40 And all my sexual needs

03:57:42 All my psychological needs

03:57:43 All this

03:57:43 Because if you

03:57:44 If you think

03:57:45 That you deserve

03:57:46 Everything that you get

03:57:47 And that you deserve

03:57:48 All these things

03:57:48 What about those people

03:57:50 With disabilities

03:57:50 What about those people

03:57:51 That are being killed

03:57:52 And stuff like that

03:57:52 Are you better than them

03:57:53 Like is that what

03:57:54 Is that effectively what is

03:57:55 In Christianity

03:57:56 They have this strand

03:57:57 Called prosperity gospel

03:57:58 I'm not sure you've ever heard of it

03:58:00 When I went to Nigeria

03:58:01 It's very apparent in that place

03:58:03 Prosperity gospel

03:58:04 They believe that

03:58:06 The more close you are to God

03:58:08 The more money you'll have

03:58:09 Effectively

03:58:10 And so these pastors and stuff

03:58:12 They have these massive castles

03:58:13 And stuff

03:58:14 There's a place in Kedja

03:58:15 It's very Jewish mentality 1.00

03:58:16 Banana Island

03:58:17 Effectively

03:58:17 It is a massive building

03:58:19 This and that

03:58:20 And oh that's the pastor's building

03:58:21 Do you get me

03:58:21 Because

03:58:22 Prosperity Bible

03:58:23 And he's asking for all these donations

03:58:25 And he lives in this massive place

03:58:26 And the private jet

03:58:27 And all this kind of thing

03:58:28 Do you know what I mean

03:58:29 But the point I'm making is that

03:58:30 It doesn't necessarily work like that

03:58:32 In Islam

03:58:33 Islam is that 0.97

03:58:33 God is Al-Hakim 0.99

03:58:34 He's the wise

03:58:35 Which means that

03:58:37 He will give you exactly

03:58:38 What you need

03:58:38 When you need it

03:58:39 If you need a bit of pain

03:58:41 He'll give you pain

03:58:42 Because pain can be good for you

03:58:44 It's not always that

03:58:45 There are pain and bad things

03:58:47 You have to have convenience

03:58:48 All the time

03:58:49 And pleasure

03:58:49 And stuff like that

03:58:50 Pain can be good for you sometimes

03:58:51 You know

03:58:52 Sometimes a bad thing

03:58:53 Can be good for you

03:58:54 Effectively

03:58:55 So Allah is Al-Hakim 0.99

03:58:56 He's all wise

03:58:57 So Islam answers the question about purpose 0.99

03:59:00 That's the

03:59:00 To answer your question

03:59:02 Because these are called

03:59:04 The ultimate questions of life

03:59:05 Karl Popper

03:59:06 One of the

03:59:07 Big 94

03:59:08 Who was one of the

03:59:10 Pioneers

03:59:11 Of the scientific method

03:59:12 He said it's called

03:59:13 The ultimate questions

03:59:15 And the ultimate questions

03:59:16 Are the why questions in life

03:59:18 So why

03:59:19 How did I get here

03:59:20 First of all

03:59:21 Okay

03:59:21 There was a creator

03:59:22 That created you

03:59:23 And put you in this place

03:59:24 What am I doing here

03:59:25 What you're doing here is

03:59:27 You are meant to submit

03:59:29 To God

03:59:30 Simple

03:59:31 Simple as that

03:59:32 And this is a test

03:59:33 This is

03:59:34 This world is a test

03:59:36 If I can bring something up

03:59:37 There's one

03:59:38 I think Christianity

03:59:39 Is the closest religion

03:59:40 To the truth

03:59:41 But the main difference

03:59:41 Is I remember

03:59:42 When Islam Makachev 0.99

03:59:43 He lost a fight in 2015

03:59:45 He got knocked out

03:59:46 And immediately

03:59:46 He prayed sujood

03:59:47 In the middle of the octagon

03:59:48 And in his speech afterwards

03:59:50 He said win or loss

03:59:51 Alhamdulillah for everything

03:59:52 So even though

03:59:53 We're grateful for the fact

03:59:54 That we have to go through

03:59:55 Difficulties

03:59:56 Because it's all part of

03:59:57 This test of life

03:59:58 And Aki Eman

03:59:59 I want to ask you

04:00:00 Specifically about this

04:00:01 What do you have to say

04:00:01 To people that come up to you

04:00:03 With a similar ideology

04:00:04 When I heard Ye speak about

04:00:06 Being dissatisfied

04:00:08 With the fact that

04:00:09 Jesus is not giving him

04:00:10 Everything that he's praying for

04:00:11 In this world

04:00:11 You know the fact that

04:00:12 He's giving tests

04:00:13 When I hear that

04:00:14 I think that he should be

04:00:15 Grateful for the fact

04:00:16 That he's tested

04:00:16 Because that's going to

04:00:17 Make him a better person

04:00:18 And a better servant for Allah

04:00:20 What would you say

04:00:21 To somebody like Ye 1.00

04:00:22 Who feels dissatisfied

04:00:23 With how God

04:00:26 Is answering his prayers

04:00:26 I'm not going to lie to you

04:00:27 I love the fact

04:00:29 That I'm being tested

04:00:30 And like you said

04:00:31 I think the more

04:00:32 You're being tested

04:00:33 The better

04:00:34 The more that Allah

04:00:35 Subhanahu wa ta'ala

04:00:36 Is actually thinking of you

04:00:37 And he wants you to shine

04:00:39 He wants you to redeem yourself

04:00:40 I was just saying

04:00:41 In my talk earlier

04:00:42 For the past 11 months

04:00:43 We've been doing

04:00:44 Nothing but sinning

04:00:46 And displeasing Allah 0.89

04:00:47 Displeasing our parents

04:00:48 Displeasing our body

04:00:50 That has been given

04:00:51 Out to us

04:00:52 As a rent

04:00:53 Because it belongs to Allah

04:00:55 How have we displeased

04:00:56 This rented body

04:00:58 That we've given

04:00:58 By eating haram

04:01:00 Drinking haram

04:01:01 So on and so forth

04:01:03 You name it

04:01:04 Me personally

04:01:04 I don't like to speak

04:01:05 About this a lot

04:01:06 Because I don't want to be

04:01:07 This narcissist

04:01:08 And what not

04:01:08 But the way I'm being

04:01:10 To bang on my stomach

04:01:11 It's here

04:01:12 Yeah

04:01:12 Like I have a

04:01:14 Basically

04:01:15 I can't go for

04:01:16 Number two

04:01:17 So on my stomach

04:01:19 And constantly having

04:01:20 Nerve damage

04:01:20 On my body

04:01:21 It makes me

04:01:23 Like Alhamdulillah 1.00

04:01:23 Allah is thinking about me

04:01:25 To such a level

04:01:26 Where I'm being tested

04:01:28 24-7 of the day

04:01:30 Sometimes I can't even

04:01:32 Sleep because

04:01:33 I can't put a blanket

04:01:34 On the left side of my body

04:01:35 Because it's so sensitive

04:01:36 And it just makes me think

04:01:37 Bro that

04:01:38 What religion do you know

04:01:40 That even if you're 0.95

04:01:42 Getting killed

04:01:42 You will say to yourself 0.98

04:01:44 Alhamdulillah

04:01:45 If you are

04:01:45 You know the hadith as well

04:01:48 It's like

04:01:48 There's a beautiful hadith

04:01:49 It's effectively

04:01:50 My favorite hadith bro

04:01:51 It goes

04:01:52 You know

04:01:53 Wondrous is the affair

04:01:54 Of the believer

04:01:55 That all of his affair

04:01:58 Is good

04:01:58 This is not the case

04:02:02 For anyone

04:02:03 Except for the believer 0.98

04:02:04 In Asabatu

04:02:04 Sarra

04:02:06 Shakar

04:02:07 If good things

04:02:08 Happen to him

04:02:08 He's very thankful

04:02:09 And if bad things

04:02:10 Happen to him

04:02:11 He is

04:02:12 Also

04:02:13 Thankful

04:02:14 And patient

04:02:15 So it's

04:02:16 There's a guy called

04:02:18 John Hoover

04:02:18 Who's a non-believer 0.98

04:02:20 But he actually

04:02:20 Comments on

04:02:21 Imitamia

04:02:22 Yeah

04:02:22 And he refers to this

04:02:24 As perpetual optimism

04:02:26 Our religion

04:02:27 And he has a book

04:02:28 On that title

04:02:29 Our religion

04:02:30 Is a religion

04:02:31 Of perpetual optimism

04:02:32 We're always optimistic

04:02:33 Everything

04:02:34 Effectively we believe

04:02:36 There's good in everything

04:02:37 And that is the

04:02:39 I personally believe

04:02:40 And there's psychological evidence

04:02:41 To show this

04:02:42 That that is the most

04:02:44 Powerful thing

04:02:45 You can have in dunya

04:02:46 Where you think

04:02:47 That every little thing

04:02:48 That is happening to you

04:02:49 Is specialised

04:02:50 Customised for you

04:02:51 And number two

04:02:52 Is purposeful

04:02:53 It's meaningful

04:02:54 And number three

04:02:55 Is good

04:02:56 It's effectively

04:02:57 Good

04:02:58 Bad that happens to you

04:02:59 Everything that happens to you

04:03:00 Is good

04:03:00 Even if it's so bad

04:03:02 Even the martyrs

04:03:03 That are being killed

04:03:03 In Palestine

04:03:04 They have this mentality

04:03:05 And it's that mindset

04:03:06 It's putting them

04:03:07 On another level

04:03:07 But you know

04:03:09 It's one person

04:03:10 SubhanAllah

04:03:11 In the battle of Uhud

04:03:12 Yeah

04:03:13 He was killed

04:03:15 By the enemy

04:03:15 As soon as the dagger

04:03:17 Went into his heart

04:03:18 He said

04:03:20 I have been successful 0.75

04:03:21 I've been killed now 0.57

04:03:24 I'm a martyr now

04:03:26 That's a different level

04:03:28 Of like

04:03:28 Operation

04:03:30 If we have that

04:03:31 Effectively

04:03:32 Like you're talking

04:03:32 About the bag 1.00

04:03:33 Imagine someone killing you 0.94

04:03:34 You're dying now 0.93

04:03:35 And you're thinking

04:03:36 I'm successful

04:03:37 That mindset is golden

04:03:40 Yeah

04:03:40 Fact

04:03:41 There's nothing

04:03:41 There's no money

04:03:42 That you could

04:03:43 Someone could give you

04:03:44 To get that mindset

04:03:45 I'm sorry to say

04:03:46 Do you know

04:03:47 Do you know you

04:03:47 Mohammed

04:03:47 You know you're saying this here

04:03:49 Someone asked me

04:03:50 If you were to go

04:03:51 Like go out

04:03:52 Of the world

04:03:53 As in that

04:03:54 Yeah

04:03:55 Like you're going

04:03:55 To meet your lord

04:03:56 How would you want to go

04:03:57 You see the first thing

04:03:59 That came to mind

04:04:00 Yeah

04:04:00 Is I want to go

04:04:01 Like Malcolm X

04:04:02 You know why

04:04:04 While giving a speech

04:04:06 Not just any speech

04:04:07 The speech of truth

04:04:08 Speech of heart

04:04:09 What you believe

04:04:10 Have you read his autobiography

04:04:11 Ah

04:04:12 Beautiful

04:04:12 That's what brought me to Islam 0.90

04:04:14 Really

04:04:15 The Malcolm X autobiography

04:04:16 So for me

04:04:17 That's why

04:04:18 If you read the last two chapters

04:04:20 Of that autobiography

04:04:21 Unbelievable

04:04:22 My guy

04:04:23 You know what I'm saying

04:04:23 I didn't expect that

04:04:25 And when he went to Hajj

04:04:27 That's where he changed his mind

04:04:29 He stopped being racist

04:04:30 After that

04:04:30 He saw the peace

04:04:31 That's why I keep going there

04:04:33 You know since we're talking about

04:04:35 You know

04:04:36 Life being a test

04:04:37 Since we're talking about

04:04:39 Life being a test

04:04:39 We should actually highlight

04:04:40 The verses of the Quran

04:04:41 That actually speak about this

04:04:43 So if you guys don't mind

04:04:44 I would love to recite

04:04:45 A few of the verses

04:04:46 That talk about

04:04:47 Life being a test

04:04:48 He's got a beautiful voice

04:04:49 Have you heard it?

04:04:49 I am bold

04:04:50 I am fake bold

04:04:52 Have you heard it before?

04:04:53 I am to this day

04:04:54 On video only

04:04:55 None of your life

04:04:55 We're listening

04:04:56 Nah nah nah

04:04:56 Allahu abadi

04:04:57 A'udhu billahi minash shaytanir rajim

04:05:04 Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

04:05:15 Wa huwa ala kulli shay'in qadeer

04:05:24 Liabluwakum 0.99

04:05:26 Liabluwakum ayyukum ahsanu amala

04:05:31 Wa huwa al-azeezu al-ghafoor

04:05:36 Blessed is the one

04:05:39 In whose hands

04:05:41 Rest all authority

04:05:41 And he is the most capable

04:05:43 Of everything

04:05:44 He is the one

04:05:45 Who created death

04:05:46 And life

04:05:47 In order to test

04:05:48 Which one of you

04:05:49 Are best in deeds

04:05:50 And he is the almighty

04:05:51 He is the most forgiving

04:05:53 Allahu shay'Allah 0.55

04:05:54 This is our Lord

04:05:55 This is our Lord

04:05:56 This is the one that we worship

04:05:57 And this is the one

04:05:58 That we're going to die for

04:05:59 In shay'Allah 0.96

04:06:02 He's got a good voice

04:06:03 Hey bro

04:06:03 In real life

04:06:06 It's a hundred times better

04:06:07 Oh hey

04:06:09 You know every time

04:06:10 I was going to talk

04:06:11 And he's in the UK

04:06:12 He's in the front seat

04:06:13 I'm a driver

04:06:14 I just like driving

04:06:15 I don't know

04:06:15 I just love driving

04:06:16 So we were doing

04:06:17 Like what

04:06:18 Four or five hour driving

04:06:19 He's in the front

04:06:20 By the time we get

04:06:21 Closer to the venue

04:06:22 He starts reciting something

04:06:24 And bam

04:06:25 Just blows it all over us

04:06:26 I was like

04:06:26 Take some of my friends

04:06:28 Yeah

04:06:29 A blow

04:06:29 Which is a whole

04:06:30 Different feeling

04:06:30 Yeah

04:06:31 That's what I'm saying man

04:06:32 The book of Allah

04:06:33 Is different

04:06:33 And this is the month

04:06:35 For you to redeem yourself

04:06:36 For how neglectful

04:06:38 You've been

04:06:39 Towards this book

04:06:40 Right

04:06:41 That's why I love it

04:06:42 What's the hardest part

04:06:43 About Ramadan

04:06:44 Like fasting

04:06:46 So this is my first Ramadan

04:06:50 Fasting

04:06:50 Come on

04:06:51 Wallahi

04:06:52 Ever since I go

04:06:53 So since 2014

04:06:55 I go to Allah

04:06:57 I fast due to my condition

04:06:58 So this year

04:06:59 I said to myself

04:06:59 Look I make the intentions

04:07:00 To fast the whole Ramadan 1.00

04:07:02 And Alhamdulillah

04:07:03 Allah has made it easy 1.00

04:07:04 For the past five days

04:07:05 Now it's been

04:07:06 I've just

04:07:07 Allah has made it easy 1.00

04:07:08 Me travelling

04:07:09 Staying up to a federal

04:07:11 Reading

04:07:11 Then going to see

04:07:13 Waking up at midday

04:07:14 Then going to a different city

04:07:16 Doing a talk

04:07:16 And Allah has made it easy 1.00

04:07:18 For me

04:07:19 Because I'm not allowed

04:07:20 To fast due to this condition

04:07:21 My body constantly

04:07:22 Needs liquid

04:07:23 If I don't

04:07:25 I'll get constipated

04:07:26 Due to scar tissue

04:07:27 And scar tissue

04:07:28 Leads to what?

04:07:29 Operation

04:07:29 So they say

04:07:31 Yeah you can't fast

04:07:32 It's beautiful

04:07:33 So Alhamdulillah

04:07:34 It's my first Ramadan so far

04:07:35 So me and you

04:07:36 Together mate

04:07:45 For us as it is for him

04:07:46 He's still fasting

04:07:47 Right

04:07:47 I see certain people

04:08:21 Jordan Peterson

04:08:22 Said something

04:08:23 That I really resonate with

04:08:24 He was saying

04:08:25 That he struggles

04:08:26 Believing in God

04:08:27 And I was the same way

04:08:28 As you Andrew

04:08:28 I was an atheist

04:08:29 For a long time

04:08:30 I grew up in the church

04:08:31 And then I rejected it

04:08:32 For a long time

04:08:32 I didn't believe in God

04:08:33 And I think I found God

04:08:34 From seeing all the

04:09:10 A source of guidance

04:09:11 For many people

04:09:12 Do you have a better connection

04:09:14 With your Muslim brothers

04:09:14 One reason that I felt

04:09:16 I felt the calling

04:09:17 To go to Mecca again

04:09:18 When Allah gives you the call

04:09:19 You have to answer

04:09:19 Something about

04:09:21 The connection with Muslim brothers

04:09:22 Is different than I have

04:09:23 With anybody

04:09:24 Even if I meet somebody

04:09:25 For the first time

04:09:25 You know how blessed you are

04:09:26 To go to the house of Allah 0.99

04:09:28 Twice

04:09:28 And since I reverted into you

04:09:29 Twice

04:09:30 I'm very blessed

04:09:30 There's people

04:09:31 Wallahi

04:09:32 That I know

04:09:33 That have done

04:09:35 Forget

04:09:36 Forget the card of all this

04:09:37 Nico

04:09:37 They've tried

04:09:38 Every single year

04:09:40 For the past 20 years

04:09:41 To go

04:09:42 There's a visa issue

04:09:43 There's a passport issue

04:09:44 Allah doesn't want you 1.00

04:09:45 To come to his house

04:09:46 Bro

04:09:46 It's an invitation

04:09:49 It's not to do

04:09:50 Nothing with visa 0.65

04:09:50 Bro

04:09:51 It's an invitation

04:09:52 Bro

04:09:52 If something was to go wrong

04:09:54 Understand Allah 1.00

04:09:55 Doesn't want you

04:09:56 In his house

04:09:57 Actually you know

04:09:58 My passport

04:09:58 Did fail

04:09:59 I had visa issues

04:10:00 I had all those issues

04:10:01 Before Warren and I

04:10:02 Were talking about it

04:10:03 He's like

04:10:03 It's a test

04:10:04 It's a test

04:10:04 Allah is telling you 0.99

04:10:06 To be patient

04:10:06 In the month of Ramadan

04:10:07 Let's say Allah 0.95

04:10:08 Does he want you

04:10:10 In this time

04:10:11 Inshallah

04:10:11 He would

04:10:11 Inshallah

04:10:12 He'll bring you

04:10:13 In the future

04:10:13 Inshallah

04:10:13 Because

04:10:14 Subhanallah

04:10:15 There was this woman 0.61

04:10:16 I think there's a virus

04:10:17 Story

04:10:17 I don't know

04:10:17 This woman

04:10:18 That didn't have any money

04:10:20 And she

04:10:20 Collected plastic bags

04:10:22 For like 15 to 20 years

04:10:23 Wow

04:10:24 Until she had enough money

04:10:25 To do hajan

04:10:26 Then she did

04:10:27 Plastic bags

04:10:28 Plastic bags

04:10:28 She went to the Benz

04:10:30 Collecting plastic

04:10:31 She had no money 0.99

04:10:31 Recycling

04:10:32 Collecting money

04:10:33 Saving up

04:10:34 15 to 20 years

04:10:35 And for some of us

04:10:37 You know any day

04:10:37 You can

04:10:37 Tomorrow you can be there

04:10:39 Have you been

04:10:40 You've been twice

04:10:42 Twice in a year

04:10:42 I've been a Muslim

04:10:43 In my life

04:10:44 I've only been once

04:10:44 You've been twice

04:10:46 And you just became

04:10:46 A Muslim

04:10:47 Allahu Akbar

04:10:48 Allahu Akbar

04:10:49 Warren and I

04:10:51 Were talking about this

04:10:51 Does Allah have favorites 0.99

04:10:53 Does he have

04:10:53 I never really believed in that

04:10:54 I always believed that

04:10:55 We're all created equal

04:10:56 But does he have

04:10:58 Because some people

04:10:58 Are just destined

04:10:59 To go to hell

04:11:01 And to never make it 1.00

04:11:01 I'll let you answer this too

04:11:02 Then I'll give my opinion

04:11:04 Does Allah have favorites 0.99

04:11:05 Does he have ones

04:11:06 That he loves more than others

04:11:08 The Prophet

04:11:08 He told us

04:11:09 In his last ceremony

04:11:10 That he gave

04:11:11 Over 100,000 companions

04:11:13 He said

04:11:14 That there is no superiority

04:11:15 For black

04:11:15 Over white

04:11:16 Over black

04:11:17 For Arab 0.67

04:11:18 Over non-Arab 1.00

04:11:18 Except with one thing

04:11:21 Except with God

04:11:23 Consciousness and piety

04:11:24 So that means

04:11:25 You can become

04:11:26 You can become

04:11:27 One of God's favorites

04:11:29 If you are

04:11:31 More mindful

04:11:32 More following

04:11:33 Of teachings

04:11:34 More God conscious

04:11:35 More closer to Allah

04:11:37 And someone else

04:11:37 What gives the prophets

04:11:39 And the messengers

04:11:40 A higher status

04:11:41 Is because of that

04:11:42 They're more

04:11:43 They have more taqwa than us 1.00

04:11:44 They're more mindful of Allah

04:11:46 They're more conscious

04:11:47 They're closer to Allah

04:11:47 They're more worshipping 0.99

04:11:49 Allah

04:11:49 So what makes you

04:11:52 Favorite

04:11:53 If you want to put that

04:11:54 Or closer to Allah 0.68

04:11:55 Is a better way to put it

04:11:56 Because favorite

04:11:57 Seems like favoritism

04:11:58 You know I like these people

04:11:59 No no no

04:11:59 You

04:12:00 Your mindfulness

04:12:01 Your closeness

04:12:02 To Allah

04:12:03 The amount of good deeds

04:12:05 That you do

04:12:05 That is what will elevate you

04:12:07 Over other people

04:12:07 What elevated certain companions

04:12:09 Of the Prophet

04:12:09 Some of them

04:12:10 Used to be slaves

04:12:11 Before Islam 1.00

04:12:11 What elevated them

04:12:13 To some of the companions

04:12:15 Calling them their masters

04:12:16 Like about Bilal

04:12:17 Saying Sayyiduna 0.97

04:12:18 He's our master

04:12:18 Was Islam

04:12:19 What elevated their status

04:12:21 Is not you know

04:12:22 Like certain

04:12:23 Countries

04:12:24 A caste system 0.83

04:12:25 You know

04:12:25 Where you're this and that

04:12:26 Or some people were born

04:12:27 As the chosen people

04:12:27 No such thing

04:12:28 If you're closer to Allah

04:12:30 If you do as best as you can

04:12:32 Then you get closer to Allah 0.92

04:12:34 Azajil

04:12:34 Then Allah loves you more

04:12:35 So this is

04:12:36 This would be like

04:12:37 Kind of

04:12:37 Yeah

04:12:38 You wanted to say something

04:12:39 As well

04:12:39 No no no

04:12:40 Allah

04:12:40 Me personally

04:12:41 I believe there is

04:12:43 People

04:12:44 That Allah

04:12:45 Subhanahu wa ta'ala

04:12:46 Favours

04:12:46 Right

04:12:47 And these are people

04:12:48 That wake up

04:12:49 In the third part of the night

04:12:50 These are people

04:12:51 That are

04:12:52 Secret in their worship

04:12:53 These are people

04:12:54 That are secret

04:12:55 In their

04:12:56 Giving

04:12:56 Charity

04:12:57 Yeah yeah

04:12:59 Bro

04:12:59 Allah favours them

04:13:00 To such a level

04:13:01 Akhi

04:13:02 You would not

04:13:04 And I'm going to say this again

04:13:07 I believe my mother

04:13:08 Was one of those people still

04:13:09 Because

04:13:11 May Allah have mercy on her

04:13:12 She passed away

04:13:13 Two years ago

04:13:13 And

04:13:14 I mean

04:13:16 And

04:13:16 One of the things

04:13:17 That stood out to me

04:13:18 When it came

04:13:19 To my mother

04:13:20 Is 0.88

04:13:21 At any time

04:13:22 She would finish the Quran 1.00

04:13:24 Every two days

04:13:25 Without felt

04:13:26 But she would make sure

04:13:27 That there's food on the table

04:13:28 She would make sure

04:13:29 That she's cooking

04:13:30 Like she does this

04:13:31 And you don't even know

04:13:32 I'm a married man

04:13:33 When I come to the house

04:13:34 I'm not allowed to lift a finger

04:13:35 No you're my son

04:13:36 You're my guest

04:13:37 I'm like

04:13:37 What are you talking about

04:13:38 She won't allow me to wash up

04:13:40 And so on and so forth

04:13:41 And

04:13:41 During the night

04:13:42 I would go to sleep

04:13:43 Then I wake up

04:13:44 Random

04:13:44 In the morning

04:13:45 Hearing some

04:13:47 Words

04:13:48 Outside my window

04:13:49 May Allah have mercy on her

04:13:51 May Allah have mercy on her

04:13:51 It's midnight

04:13:52 I said

04:13:53 Mom what are you doing

04:13:53 She's in the garden

04:13:54 Saying you know what

04:13:55 I don't want no barrier 0.97

04:13:58 Between myself and Allah

04:13:59 So

04:14:00 She doesn't want 1.00

04:14:01 No man made thing

04:14:02 In between herself and Allah 0.98

04:14:04 As she would just be

04:14:06 In her ibadah

04:14:07 Her night prayers

04:14:08 Out in the garden

04:14:09 I said

04:14:10 Yeah man

04:14:10 This woman is different 1.00

04:14:11 Subhanallah

04:14:12 You have this concept in Islam

04:14:14 That's being favorite

04:14:15 You have this concept in Islam

04:14:17 Called the concept of wali

04:14:18 People who are like

04:14:20 You can say

04:14:21 Allies to Allah

04:14:22 Friends to Allah

04:14:22 Close to Allah

04:14:23 And there's a hadith about that

04:14:25 Where Allah says

04:14:26 Who opposes or goes against

04:14:30 One of my

04:14:30 Those awliya of mine

04:14:32 Then there's war

04:14:34 Let him prepare for war with me 0.99

04:14:35 You go to war with Allah 1.00

04:14:36 If you're opposing these people

04:14:38 So this concept of wali

04:14:40 If you want to use that term

04:14:41 For favoritism

04:14:42 This idea of wali

04:14:43 This is what he was saying

04:14:44 It is the taqwa 0.91

04:14:46 Because for you to become a wali 1.00

04:14:48 Of Allah

04:14:48 You have to have taqwa in the heart 1.00

04:14:50 And this taqwa shows in these actions 0.99

04:14:52 The secret actions between you

04:14:53 Allah

04:14:53 In the night

04:14:54 You pray no one sees you

04:14:55 But this is what I say to you

04:14:56 Sneeko bro

04:14:57 You're so out there

04:14:59 In the limelight

04:14:59 This is a reminder to all of us

04:15:01 When you're out there

04:15:02 In the limelight

04:15:03 Whether you like or not

04:15:05 Allah allows you to get 0.97

04:15:06 To that position

04:15:06 For a reason

04:15:07 But it's what you do in secret

04:15:09 It's what you do in secret

04:15:12 The things that only Allah sees 0.99

04:15:14 Only between you and Allah 1.00

04:15:16 That's it

04:15:17 Isn't that why fasting is so special

04:15:21 Is because

04:15:21 It's between you and Allah 1.00

04:15:23 Like if you fasted for your parents

04:15:25 As soon as your parents are looking

04:15:27 You know

04:15:28 You can never hide from Allah 0.77

04:15:31 I thought that earlier

04:15:32 When you left the room

04:15:33 And I had the chocolates

04:15:34 On the table in the hotel

04:15:35 I was like no one's looking

04:15:35 One is not getting in here

04:15:37 Thank you right now

04:15:39 But I remember

04:15:40 Allah's watching me 0.99

04:15:41 So

04:15:41 Alhamdulillah

04:15:43 I'm curious about

04:15:44 Muhammad Ujala

04:15:45 What your relationship is

04:15:46 With the Christians 1.00

04:15:47 That watch your videos

04:15:47 I'm sure there's many of them

04:15:48 I mean I have many of them

04:15:49 Because

04:15:50 I've been reading the Quran more

04:15:52 And it says that

04:15:53 That the Jews and Christians

04:15:54 Although they're close

04:15:55 They are going to go

04:15:56 To the hellfire

04:15:57 Which

04:15:57 You know

04:15:58 I'm having trouble

04:15:59 Grasping that belief

04:15:59 I know that

04:16:00 The Quran is the ultimate truth

04:16:01 But what is your relationship

04:16:03 With them

04:16:03 Do you think that they're

04:16:04 Confused

04:16:05 How do you guide Christians

04:16:06 How do you speak to them

04:16:07 And why do you think

04:16:08 That they resonate with your videos

04:16:09 I mean the thing is

04:16:10 When it comes to the hellfire

04:16:12 It's all to do with the exposure

04:16:13 They have to the message

04:16:15 So you can have

04:16:16 An atheist 1.00

04:16:17 Or a Hindu 1.00

04:16:18 Or a Christian 1.00

04:16:18 Who dies upon

04:16:19 Their belief

04:16:20 We can be sure

04:16:22 That they're going to hellfire

04:16:23 Because we don't know

04:16:24 To what extent

04:16:25 Have they had exposure

04:16:26 To Islam 0.94

04:16:26 To the evidence of Islam 1.00

04:16:28 Have they understood

04:16:29 The true meaning of Islam 0.90

04:16:30 For example

04:16:31 Look at America

04:16:32 For instance

04:16:33 Like the Bible Belt region 0.97

04:16:34 A lot of people

04:16:35 If you ask them

04:16:36 Write down what Islam 1.00

04:16:37 Is about

04:16:38 They'll have some kind of

04:16:40 Terrorists

04:16:41 We don't want to say 0.99

04:16:43 These people are going to go to hellfire

04:16:44 In fact the Quran says

04:16:46 We're not going to punish people

04:16:49 Until we send them

04:16:50 A messenger

04:16:51 A warner

04:16:52 A warner

04:16:53 It's the people

04:16:55 Sorry to interrupt you

04:16:56 It's the people

04:16:57 People make up 0.64

04:16:58 The hellfire

04:16:59 Majority of them

04:17:00 Are people that have seen

04:17:01 Signs of truth

04:17:02 And they ignore the signs

04:17:03 Exactly

04:17:03 So it's not a matter of

04:17:05 Our belief is not

04:17:06 All Christians

04:17:07 That's not our belief

04:17:09 Our belief are

04:17:10 Those Christians 1.00

04:17:10 Who have been exposed

04:17:11 To the evidences

04:17:12 And they reject them

04:17:13 Conscientiously

04:17:13 Those ones are the ones

04:17:15 Who

04:17:15 They classify it

04:17:17 So the ones that speak

04:17:19 Is cornerback

04:17:19 So the more exposure

04:17:22 They have

04:17:23 The more dangerous

04:17:23 It is for them

04:17:24 So that's the first thing

04:17:26 My personal relationship

04:17:28 Look Christians 0.98

04:17:29 The Quran mentions

04:17:30 He mentioned the ayah

04:17:32 You know

04:17:32 That you will see

04:17:33 That the closest to them

04:17:35 That you will find

04:17:42 That the people

04:17:43 Who are closest to Muslims 0.98

04:17:44 Are those who say

04:17:45 We are Christians

04:17:46 Because

04:17:52 Among them

04:17:57 There are people

04:17:58 Who are

04:17:59 True aesthetics

04:18:00 There are true monks

04:18:01 Or

04:18:02 You know

04:18:02 But they

04:18:03 The key thing

04:18:04 About Christianity

04:18:04 They don't have arrogance

04:18:08 Like if

04:18:09 If you know about

04:18:10 Christian theology

04:18:10 You'll know that

04:18:11 They do have a big

04:18:13 Emphasis on humility

04:18:14 Right

04:18:15 About love and humility

04:18:16 These two

04:18:16 They're themes in Christianity

04:18:18 And so

04:18:19 When people

04:18:19 When people exude

04:18:21 Love and humility

04:18:22 It's

04:18:23 They become more

04:18:24 Easy to get along with

04:18:25 Which

04:18:26 Quite frankly

04:18:27 Is different to

04:18:28 Jewish theology

04:18:29 Because Jewish theology 0.59

04:18:31 Is more

04:18:32 Exclusivist

04:18:34 That we are the chosen

04:18:35 Chosen ones

04:18:36 Yeah

04:18:36 And it's an ethnic

04:18:37 Superiority

04:18:39 Right

04:18:39 So the Quran 0.80

04:18:41 Criticizes that

04:18:42 From that perspective

04:18:42 And in fact

04:18:43 Right before this verse

04:18:45 Allah mentions

04:18:46 You mentioned it before

04:18:47 He mentions the

04:18:48 Politeists 0.96

04:18:49 The pure politiists

04:18:50 Who are not Christian 1.00

04:18:51 And he mentions the Jews

04:18:53 And he says that

04:18:54 You'll find that

04:18:54 They are the most

04:18:55 They have the most

04:18:57 Animosity to Muslims 1.00

04:18:58 Okay

04:18:59 And if you consider

04:19:01 The reasons why

04:19:02 It's not a genetic reason

04:19:03 Or a biological reason

04:19:04 It's simply a theological reason

04:19:05 And Jewish

04:19:06 A person who believes

04:19:08 In Jewish theology

04:19:09 This is the point

04:19:10 I wanted to make before

04:19:11 They believe

04:19:13 Many of them believe

04:19:15 Many of them actually believe

04:19:16 That they are

04:19:16 Superior to you

04:19:18 On the basis of

04:19:19 Biology

04:19:20 Of existing

04:19:21 Yeah

04:19:21 Because they are

04:19:22 A different blood to you

04:19:23 Right

04:19:24 They are better than you

04:19:25 But the children of Adam

04:19:26 Yeah

04:19:26 The children of Isaac

04:19:28 Or the children of Israel 0.90

04:19:30 Isn't that the Lucifer complex?

04:19:31 That's exactly

04:19:32 So the Quran 0.80

04:19:33 Actually vehemently

04:19:35 Opposes this

04:19:35 And it challenges Jews 1.00

04:19:37 On this point

04:19:38 For example

04:19:39 It says that

04:19:40 If you really believe

04:19:41 That you are

04:19:42 The chosen people

04:19:43 Apart from God

04:19:45 Then why don't you 0.99

04:19:45 Why don't you prefer death? 0.99

04:19:47 Why are you 0.96

04:19:47 And they will never prefer death

04:19:49 Why does it say that?

04:19:50 Because why are you here

04:19:51 In this hard life

04:19:52 When you could be with God

04:19:53 And you don't need to be tested

04:19:54 Basically

04:19:55 You believe you are above the test

04:19:56 So

04:19:57 There is

04:19:58 There is a lot

04:19:59 In Christian theology

04:20:00 In the Christian religion

04:20:02 Okay

04:20:02 Which is very good

04:20:03 Which is commensurate

04:20:05 With what we believe

04:20:06 Which is

04:20:08 The correct etiquette

04:20:10 The correct focus points

04:20:11 Like for example

04:20:12 Humility

04:20:13 And love

04:20:13 And all these kind of things

04:20:14 That's why

04:20:15 It's easy for me

04:20:16 To get along with

04:20:17 A lot of Christians

04:20:17 Now

04:20:19 A lot of Jews are the same 0.99

04:20:20 Actually

04:20:20 They are very good

04:20:21 Easy to get along with

04:20:21 But the Zionist supremacists 0.95

04:20:23 Or Jewish supremacists

04:20:25 It's very difficult 0.97

04:20:25 To get along with them

04:20:26 When you know

04:20:27 They believe

04:20:28 That they are better than you

04:20:28 On the basis

04:20:29 Of race

04:20:30 And that they are saved

04:20:31 On the basis of race

04:20:32 Or ethnicity

04:20:32 They believe that

04:20:33 So

04:20:34 If you make a comparison

04:20:36 I would say

04:20:37 Yes

04:20:37 My relationship with them

04:20:38 Is good

04:20:39 You'd be surprised

04:20:41 I've done the David Wood debate

04:20:42 I've done it

04:20:42 There's respect

04:20:44 Because they know

04:20:44 Where I stand

04:20:45 And really truly

04:20:46 Like

04:20:46 On certain values

04:20:48 And stuff like that

04:20:48 We share the same

04:20:50 A lot of the same values

04:20:51 Conservative values

04:20:52 Family

04:20:53 In fact

04:20:53 We are more staunch

04:20:54 Than them

04:20:54 On the values

04:20:55 That they claim

04:20:56 On modesty

04:20:57 We go further

04:20:57 Than they do

04:20:58 On family

04:20:59 We go further

04:20:59 Than they do

04:21:00 You know

04:21:01 There are some differences

04:21:02 But frankly

04:21:02 You know

04:21:04 I think that

04:21:04 There's a good relationship

04:21:05 We should probably

04:21:08 We should probably

04:21:08 Get going

04:21:09 You guys need to

04:21:10 Get out

04:21:10 Thank you again

04:21:11 For staying

04:21:12 This late

04:21:13 I appreciate everyone

04:21:14 Thank you

04:21:16 Thank you so much

04:21:17 Brother

04:21:18 Sneak out

04:21:19 We have to do a stream

04:21:21 Going around the ends

04:21:22 Come on

04:21:23 I'm down

04:21:25 I'm down

04:21:25 Okay let's do it

04:21:26 I want to go to the ends

04:21:27 I'm going to take you

04:21:28 Right there

04:21:28 Come on

04:21:29 Let's go to the end

04:21:29 Oh yeah

04:21:30 Thank you

04:21:33 Great to meet you

04:21:34 What do we

04:21:38 Took over the stream

04:21:40 No this is great

04:21:43 Forgive us for that

04:21:43 We need to

04:21:45 We need to

04:21:45 Thanks so much

04:21:47 This is the sign

04:21:48 Of us for brotherhood

04:21:49 I met all the three of you

04:21:50 Today for the first time

04:21:51 We were able to talk

04:21:52 For four hours straight

04:21:53 It's true brotherhood

04:21:56 He's my brother

04:21:58 Like the brotherhood

04:22:00 Who's

04:22:00 From my mother

04:22:01 And my father

04:22:02 All of them

04:22:02 Sitting down

04:22:03 This is how we look

04:22:05 At each other

04:22:05 If he's about

04:22:06 Something is about

04:22:06 I will defend him

04:22:07 If something is going

04:22:08 To happen to him

04:22:08 If it's going to happen

04:22:09 This is true about Islam 1.00

04:22:11 But if you try

04:22:12 Look

04:22:12 Probably he'll defend me

04:22:15 In this case

04:22:15 Right

04:22:16 Maybe

04:22:17 But if

04:22:18 If you look at other faiths 0.99

04:22:21 You're not going to see this

04:22:22 And you'll see a lot of people

04:22:23 Who accepted Islam 1.00

04:22:23 They said that

04:22:24 They know this is the difference

04:22:25 Right

04:22:25 If you're setting out

04:22:26 It's actually

04:22:26 This is my brother

04:22:27 You know

04:22:28 It's not just we're saying

04:22:29 This is my brother

04:22:29 No, no

04:22:30 It's actually

04:22:30 Allah says

04:22:31 Verily the believers are brothers

04:22:33 These are all my brothers

04:22:35 You know

04:22:36 Imagine being united

04:22:38 Upon believing

04:22:39 That Allah is your lord

04:22:40 Islam is your religion

04:22:43 And the prophet

04:22:44 Peace be upon him

04:22:45 It's not just a messenger

04:22:46 But it's a vision

04:22:48 It's a way of life

04:22:50 For the whole of mankind

04:22:51 What more do you want

04:22:52 It made me almost

04:22:56 Depressed

04:22:58 After seeing Mecca 0.70

04:22:58 For the first time

04:22:59 Like the realization

04:23:00 Seeing the peace

04:23:01 For there

04:23:01 For thousands and thousands

04:23:02 Of people

04:23:02 All going in and out

04:23:03 Nobody fighting

04:23:04 Nobody arguing

04:23:05 Barely any police

04:23:05 Is that

04:23:06 If everybody

04:23:07 Became Muslim 0.65

04:23:09 The world would know

04:23:10 True peace

04:23:10 And then that

04:23:11 Realization

04:23:13 That will never happen

04:23:14 That if everybody

04:23:15 Had submission

04:23:16 To the one creator

04:23:17 And followed the rules

04:23:18 Of the Quran 0.78

04:23:18 There could be peace

04:23:19 On earth

04:23:19 But you could see that

04:23:21 In Mecca

04:23:22 And I encourage everybody

04:23:23 To go see it

04:23:23 For your own eyes

04:23:24 Because that's the only place

04:23:25 On earth

04:23:26 I think that you'll see

04:23:26 That many people crowded

04:23:27 Shoulder to shoulder

04:23:28 Stepping on each other's feet

04:23:30 Even a lady on a wheelchair 1.00

04:23:31 Rolled over Warner's feet

04:23:32 And he didn't get angry

04:23:33 And that's the only place

04:23:34 In the world

04:23:35 That that will happen

04:23:35 Yeah

04:23:36 I didn't feed him

04:23:36 It's the only place

04:23:41 But

04:23:41 But first you gotta be Muslim 1.00

04:23:43 To do that 0.82

04:23:44 Remember
