00:00:00.000 What do you admire about him the most?
00:00:02.680 Everything.
00:00:03.840 Please unpack that.
00:00:05.020 Okay.
00:00:06.960 The Muhammad that the West has been introduced to is not our Muhammad, the Muhammad of the Quran.
00:00:16.180 Very important.
00:00:17.660 And please, Patrick, ask me any question.
00:00:21.180 And if you feel I haven't answered you, please go back and make sure that you're satisfied with my answer.
00:00:27.660 I'm not here to evade anything, so please.
00:00:32.780 Just so you know, you don't give me that vibe at all.
00:00:34.460 Okay.
00:00:34.800 You don't even have to explain yourself.
00:00:36.240 Thank you.
00:00:36.680 Thank you.
00:00:38.960 Arabia needed monotheism.
00:00:42.900 This was a society that was worshipping dates and stones and burying their daughters alive, worshipping idols.
00:00:50.940 The tradition of Abraham was corrupted in Arabia.
00:00:54.780 We call this the time of ignorance, Zaman al-Jahiliyyah.
00:00:59.840 God sent a man, we believe, in the same way he sent Moses and Jesus.
00:01:04.860 His name is Muhammad.
00:01:06.860 He sent him to Arabia, not to start a new religion, but to continue the religion of previous prophets.
00:01:14.740 Moses being, you know, the final Jewish prophet and Jesus being the messenger for the Christians.
00:01:26.280 Now, you may believe him to be the son of God.
00:01:29.700 I see him as a prophet of God.
00:01:32.440 But what we agree upon is that he was a messenger of God.
00:01:36.400 What he came with came from God, came from the, you call him the father, I call him Allah.
00:01:43.920 The prophet Muhammad, you may read the Quran that he came down with.
00:01:49.000 And we say he came with, but it was revealed to him.
00:01:53.020 So it did not come down as a tablet.
00:01:55.620 It came down as verse by verse or certain verses together.
00:01:59.240 His focus in Arabia was monotheism.
00:02:03.640 Who is God?
00:02:05.100 Who is our creator and our responsibility towards him?
00:02:08.580 That's it.
00:02:09.540 That is the main fundamental pillar of the message of the prophet.
00:02:13.820 Do not worship idols.
00:02:15.460 Do not worship idols that you create with your own hands.
00:02:18.220 And when you get hungry, you eat them out of dates and so on.
00:02:22.120 Do not have sexual relations with your parents.
00:02:26.680 Do not kill your parents.
00:02:28.120 Do not murder the innocent, for example.
00:02:31.900 Respect the basic Noahide laws.
00:02:35.000 This is exactly what our prophet advocated for.
00:02:38.180 Then there is a development of a religion.
00:02:41.500 That is where it gets more interesting.
00:02:44.340 Because it all goes back to those people following the prophet Muhammad.
00:02:50.700 The prophet Muhammad was born in 570.
00:02:54.760 He passed away in 632.
00:02:58.120 He was a prophet for 23 years.
00:03:01.820 In 23 years, all of his battles were defensive.
00:03:06.580 And you can look this up as I'm speaking.
00:03:08.180 They were all defensive.
00:03:10.540 And we can speak about treatment of Christians, of Jews, of any group.
00:03:15.160 Ask me any question.
00:03:16.560 I'll tell you this.
00:03:17.300 But before we do so, I want to just point to a book that I think is valuable just for context.
00:03:23.840 By John Tolan.
00:03:25.720 The Faces of Muhammad.
00:03:30.640 Right.
00:03:31.120 So, this book shows you that the West itself.
00:03:37.580 In this book, the author, Mr. Tolan, speaks about the faces of Muhammad in the West.
00:03:45.240 Muhammad during the medieval era.
00:03:47.220 How did the Western world view him?
00:03:49.180 Muhammad during the Reformation era.
00:03:51.640 Muhammad during the Enlightenment era.
00:03:53.340 So, when you ask me about my prophet, this question is coming from the developments and events happening in our time.
00:04:06.120 Muhammad was never looked at in a single way by the West.
00:04:09.360 He was looked at as Muhammad the businessman.
00:04:12.480 Muhammad the poet.
00:04:14.380 Muhammad the warrior.
00:04:15.940 Muhammad the father.
00:04:17.100 The father of orphans.
00:04:18.320 Muhammad the statesman.
00:04:20.040 Right.
00:04:20.880 So, when I speak about the prophet Muhammad, I'll tell you this.
00:04:25.640 He was a man sent by God to Arabia to guide them towards monotheism and ethics.
00:04:33.120 That's it.
00:04:34.640 That is who he was.
00:04:36.040 That's what his mission was.
00:04:37.860 And that is exactly what the Quran focuses on.
00:04:41.680 But, yes, it's a book that speaks to a developing community.
00:04:46.360 There's going to be conflict.
00:04:47.880 There's going to be war.
00:04:48.820 And there's going to be peace.
00:04:50.460 There's going to be a lot of difficult conversations to be had.
00:04:53.520 And we should not shy away from them.
00:04:56.100 What's the most difficult part of the Quran that you had to accept?
00:05:00.780 No, I accepted all with no difficulty.
00:05:02.740 None of it?
00:05:03.220 No, because there's no question you can ask me that I do not have a rational answer for.
00:05:06.760 The most basic one I'll go to that you've probably been asked a million times that you know of.
00:05:11.300 So, Aisha, how do you process that?
00:05:13.220 Aisha was not married to the prophet at a young age.
00:05:16.980 She was an adult.
00:05:18.600 And I've heard you say this before.
00:05:20.140 She was an adult.
00:05:20.740 Do you know how many people who are Islam, Muslim scholars, who do the complete opposite, who don't even debate it?
00:05:31.160 Right.
00:05:31.340 But you debate it.
00:05:31.960 They're preachers.
00:05:32.940 They're not imams.
00:05:34.180 They are preachers.
00:05:35.700 The son of an imam is not an imam.
00:05:37.360 Just because your dad has a mosque and leads prayers and gives you the microphone to speak, it does not make you a theologian.
00:05:44.420 If the average person goes and checks to see, by the way, let's do this.
00:05:48.500 Let me ask the question in a different way.
00:05:50.060 Right.
00:05:50.520 If he did marry Aisha at six, if he did consummate at nine, would you still be a Muslim?
00:05:56.480 The thing is, he would never do that.
00:05:58.120 No, but here's a different question I'm asking.
00:05:59.740 Right.
00:06:00.040 He would never do that.
00:06:00.980 I'm not asking that question.
00:06:02.540 If your prophet, if, this is an if, it's a key word, if he did marry a six-year-old, if he did consummate, which means, you know, have sex with somebody at nine, that some people would, you know, define that as rape.
00:06:17.160 They wouldn't even consider that as sex.
00:06:19.600 If he did, would you still be a Muslim?
00:06:21.900 Would you still see yourself as a Muslim yourself?
00:06:24.340 Patrick, I'm not running away from the question.
00:06:27.060 I swear on my life and on my mother's life.
00:06:30.740 I'm telling you, when you say prophet, to me, it means an infallible being that does not make a mistake or make error.
00:06:38.420 It doesn't make sense.
00:06:39.680 Then let me ask the question in a different way, okay?
00:06:45.640 You're born into a family that is non-religious at all.
00:06:52.780 You have to find your own way.
00:06:54.640 It's not third-generation imam.
00:06:57.060 They're not Muslim, but it's not atheists.
00:06:59.660 Maybe it's agnostic.
00:07:01.380 You go pick and choose and find your own.
00:07:03.760 Not Christian, not Presbyterian, not Jehovah, not nothing, right?
00:07:07.940 I would eventually end up as Muslim.
00:07:10.120 You say that.
00:07:11.020 You say that.
00:07:11.760 You say that now.
00:07:12.840 And, you know, I understand saying that.
00:07:16.820 You know, I would also say I would end up being a Christian myself.
00:07:20.720 And I would say that.
00:07:22.280 But neither one of us know that for a fact.
00:07:24.200 We can play that and say yes, but I get the positioning of you having faith in what you're saying.
00:07:29.540 If we put something on a board, facts of each religion out there, let's name one of them the religion of whatever.
00:07:40.900 But the founder of that religion, who was admired by a couple billion people.
00:07:46.620 If it was factually proven that he married someone at six and they had sex at nine, would you ever consider that religion?
00:07:55.880 If, I didn't say Muslim.
00:07:57.920 I said, if it was proven that the founder had done that, would you ever accept that religion?
00:08:01.880 No, of course not.
00:08:02.720 You wouldn't?
00:08:03.280 No.
00:08:03.580 Okay, beautiful.
00:08:04.600 But, again, the prophet for us, when you say Muhammad, you know what I process?
00:08:10.720 An infallible human being that does not make mistakes at all or any error.
00:08:15.580 So, it's impossible that he would make such a decision.
00:08:19.660 And, plus, the issue of Aisha, you have to weigh it against the society and the dates around her.
00:08:28.520 She was born after her sister Asma and she died before Asma.
00:08:33.020 And, I have it in a study which I can definitely send you.
00:08:36.380 She was either 18, from 18 to 21 years old.
00:08:41.500 There is no Muslim consensus that Aisha was three or six or nine or 15.
00:08:47.180 There are more popular opinions because there is a state behind the publications promoting them.
00:08:55.960 Yes, that I accept.
00:08:57.720 But, again, with all due respect, if you put a book in front of me, a history book,
00:09:02.960 and you tell me this book was authored by a very respected man, you know what I'll tell you?
00:09:08.340 I'll tell you with all due respect, Brother Patrick, I know you gave me a book.
00:09:12.760 You put a book in front of me.
00:09:14.080 But, God gave me a brain, and I can do mathematics, and I can understand exactly when she was born, where she was.
00:09:21.840 It's not hard to work it out.
00:09:24.120 Well...
00:09:24.620 18 to 21.
00:09:25.940 Okay.
00:09:26.340 Final verdict.
00:09:27.200 According to your opinion, it's 18 to 21, right?
00:09:30.840 According to your opinion.
00:09:31.680 But, I have Islamic sources for it.
00:09:33.740 But, those are also sources.
00:09:35.280 But, they are...
00:09:36.080 So, the two sources are debating each other.
00:09:37.800 Again, a source is measured and is judged based on the author, and based on the credibility of the source.
00:09:48.020 So, when you're telling me that she was...
00:09:50.740 It's narrated that she's 6 or 9, I understand where that comes from.
00:09:54.520 And, I can also tell you that book is banned in certain countries.
00:09:57.640 So, that's the same book for...
00:09:58.960 And, I don't want to mention...
00:10:00.780 I don't want to offend X percent of Muslims by saying this.
00:10:06.100 But, I'll tell you this.
00:10:07.820 If a book is rejected because it was relied upon by ISIS, it should also be rejected if it tells you that Aisha was 6 and that my prophet was a rapist.
