00:00:00 --> 00:00:05
			My name is Sheik Ibrahim Gabriels.
I am the former president of the
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:10
			Muslim Judicial Council, similar
in the name of God Almighty, most
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:14
			Gracious, most Merciful. I would
love to believe that coronavirus
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:18
			is not a curse from God Almighty.
It's not a punishment, but it's a
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			mercy. It is a time for South
Africans to reflect, not only
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			South Africans, but people of the
world. And in the context of South
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:29
			Africa, we have got one of the
most beautiful countries in the
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:34
			world, and we were always united.
And so this is a time for us to
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:39
			reflect and to work together and
take South Africa to another
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:44
			level. I'm as a captainian, born
and bred captainian, I can still
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:49
			tell about how we can could have
put the bottle of milk outside
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			with the money in, and the milky
man comes and he put the milk and
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			nobody will take it. South
Africa's chains. There's too much
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:59
			corruption, there's too much
crime. So this is the time for us
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:03
			to stand together. I, as a
Capetonian, can tell that my
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			mother, Christmas time would make
biryani and Ruth and curry for all
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:12
			the Christian neighbors in the
world. I would go on our Eid and
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:16
			Christmas time with my Christian
friends. So we lived together as
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:20
			Christians, Jews and Hindus and
everybody. And this is a time for
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:25
			us to come back to that state and
build up South Africa, and so that
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			we can have a crime free South
Africa and a freak of corruption.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			And may God Almighty bless all
South Africans. You.
