Friends and companions and all of those that will follow Him and Him
until the end of time, we beseech Our Allah, subhana wa Taala to
guide and protect us and grant us success. Amin ya rapa, Lamin, we
are it's Monday,
actually it's Tuesday. Subhanallah,
Tuesday the first of June. We are in Hanover Park at the Hanover
Park Day Hospital for the vaccination rollout, And
Alhamdulillah Gabriel's Hafiz Allah will be having his
vaccination done today inshallah. And we pray and may God Allah
grants him
good health and strength. Inshallah. We pray that Allah,
subhana wa Taala grants him to let the vaccine be to his benefit
Inshallah, and we may glad that Allah guys in politics, our our
healthcare workers, Allah guys in politics, our doctors, our nurses
and all of our sick Allah granting Shiva and Shah. So we are going to
move now into a vaccination area with our scheme Gabriels,
Inshallah, we are in the in the covid session of the Hospital,
where they go the vaccines,
receiving what vaccine defies the vaccine, Alhamdulillah. It's two
doses.
Alhamdulillah. So prior to this, we the doctors, had explained to
all of the patients, am I correct? Yes, what? With regards to the
entire procedure, two doses, as Chef had said, one now and then
another in six weeks. Inshallah.
How are you feeling? Are you healthy? Are you strong? Are you
feeling comfortable? I'm feeling very healthy. I'm now 65 but I
feel like 4535
okay,
and I think it's important for us Asian,
because it is needed. It's not only for
my protection, but also the protection of my wife, my
children, my family around
me, because even protection for the community also. And then
secondly, there's so much negativity about this vaccination,
the MGC has made
a clear department of discussion
that it is permissible, but it is
encouraged that people must take
the vaccine, and because there are some negativities out there around
messages and confused messages go out. And we just want to motivate
our people in this hospital, now over 60, that they should come to
the hospitals which is now available. It's like when the
table to take the vaccination of
the
reason why we think it is because the land of
so the same with the vaccine
coronavirus. So like now viewers, what we find is that government is
rolling out the vaccine to those who are 60 and older.
Alhamdulillah, you're looking very good for 65 Alhamdulillah, may
Allah keep you for water so many years inshaAllah. So right now,
all those who are 60 and always getting the vaccine. How does the
process works? If the registration and all of those, yeah, you need
to register online, so,
and then they will take your
it's a simple process. It's a very easy process.
So after the registration, then what happens after registration?
Come to the hospital, you stand in the lines, and then it takes about
three to five minutes. Can anyone just go to the hospital? Or do
they let you know? No, they let you know. Okay, online, that's
important,
right? So I register online, they send me an SMS or a message. You
must come on such and such a day at this time through your
whichever the hospital it is, and then obviously, Chef, we are in
ANOVA park, but she serves in Mitchell's play.
Is there a reason why chef came to ANOVA park, or is it that
government actually tells you it No, no.
I could have gone through limited here.
My youngest daughter, she said, this is also
here I used
to teach when I graduated from the
first place. Oh,
vaccine is
available, and
it is. It's a
principle of Islam that you must protect your life. Life is very
sacred. Life is very, very sacred. Muhammad
expect this greatness and the sacredness of the Kaaba, but then
he said that the life of a human being is more sacred.
So it's all about, you know, preserving and safeguarding and
protecting our lives and
the
deed
of Islam. So this is a cure for coronavirus Inshallah, and
that is
not as how the hadith of Rasulullah, sallAllahu Sallam says
you tie your camel and one day after you place your question
Allah. And this reminds me Sheik that at the Battle of rasulallah
did not wear an arm. You wear double layered on my meaning.
So the people that say that I don't need to wear a mask, the
people that say social distancing and all of these things, this is
just another layer when getting the vaccination, it is just
another layer of protection that I am adding to all the other layers
of protection that I already have Inshallah, I think Doctor Talib
wanted to speak to us Inshallah, so let me just move over.
Yes, we are
having this covid vaccination Inshallah, which is the Kaiser one
with us is Doctor.
About
you. How has our community been responding to covid 19, number
one, and we took covid 19. In relation to the
covid 19, the pandemic has been really
careful.
Everybody. Especially so that's why we started with this. Once we
did the healthy wellness, we've started now with the 16 laps,
because we really want to get things
and try to agree a third way, because we've been here for the
first wave the second wave, and we're really trying to avoid a
third wave and flatten the curve. So, yeah, inshallah. So, so we've
had a good response from the Muslim community. Obviously,
they're anxious. They don't know what to say, but so far, everyone
that's been vaccinated said they didn't have much side effects.
It's all maybe the next day, some miles
further than that, nothing, nothing major,
and
only the helpline, okay, so if
anyone shows any any adverse like extreme adversary, anaphylaxis, or
whatever it might be, it's not that you're giving the people the
vaccine and then you're just leaving them
support. You're saying that is the apprehension to the vaccine there
is. But I think that's normal. I know, even as this healthcare
workers,
um, especially it doesn't help with fake news and the
misinformation that's out there. So how damning was the fake news?
You know, people are really, I don't know how why it is, but
people are so quick to to believe all these things without checking
the source.
So what I want encourage people
to do?
Yeah, so just encourage people, please, don't send things on that
you don't know the source. Make sure it's coming safe from
Department of Health, something reliable before you send things
out, because you really just put a lot of fear and anxiety, which
so much anxiety really in the community.
And you know, the sooner we can get people vaccinated.
Yeah. So.
You know, I don't think people understand the ludicrity they are
right. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Yeah, but I
mean, you have doctors that are vaccinating people, and the very
same doctor that is giving you your hypertension medication or
your insulin for your diabetes, the exact same doctor that is
advising you. I'm advising you to take the vaccine. Why am I
accepting the diabetes medication or hypertension medication, or any
of those medications? But when it comes to the vaccine, do you feel
it is because people don't trust it? Do you feel it is just the
transparency theory and on account of that, or is there valid reasons
why people off
your phone, you have
vaccines, have developed these anti Vax,
and it's a very big anti science lobby.
But you know, as you speak, we
have to trust in our
I mean, where is this vaccine coming from? You know? Yeah,
if the illness and
prevention is it's better than cure No. So, so let's, let's
discuss in the process. Okay, have you been vaccinated? Yes, I have
four hours when it first came out, and I got that SMS, and I was so
relieved. And so just take that level of anxiety, or what you just
feel. And I mean, even I was nervous. You know,
last question, does
the vaccine stop you from getting cold? Okay, so there's no vaccine,
okay? Um,
different vaccines have different efficacies. This wonderful.
So it means that you can still get covid, but if you get covid, it
will be a mild co worker, so you won't end up in hospital and you
won't die.
No,
no. Soon as possible, then we can move on to the
immunity.
I know it has been available a year. Last year, it was crazy,
unprecedented.
No one has ever had to deal with the pandemic or anything like
that. And psychological lost, how
healthcare workers,
even at this facility, we lost one of our nursing then it was very
tough. And you think you tired of, you know, how we feel, and we
really don't know, you know, there's this uncertainty about the
third wave. But this, we've been really intrigued. You know, it's a
privilege for us to
Allah, bless you.
So yeah, they were had Doctor Talib that
did an interview explaining the importance of the
vaccination.
But we are going
to be gone under 60. So those over 60, please make sure that you
reach us online and take And then
always
single voices don't
speak to long at silent. So
that's the main reason why we get out, so that the voices of the
truth
and of confidence can come out, so that you shower the wisdom kick
and make a great success of care of people. So once again, I want
to encourage
Thank
you. Gave a.
For those are just tuning in Chicago's live, and
I know about the hospital about to have this vaccination and
Inshallah,
and
very
important,
compared to the results all over the world. You're not talking all
about Western people all over the world. The success rate is over
80% over 90% but any vaccination or any medication for that,
there's no 100% guarantee. I mean, lot of people take other
medications and the doctor tell you there might be scientific,
yeah, listen, but it's not scientific for all the people,
when you take, for example, any medication for flu or for any
other sickness. So, so, so if there is no 100% of any other
medication, why do we seek 100%
coronavirus vaccination?
It's not reasonable.
So I'm quite confident. I mean, many of my colleagues and many of
my families have already taken the vaccination. My eldest sister is
now 73, years old. She's been vaccination like my other brother,
younger than
me.
So most of the people around me, that one cousin,
but hungry left you understand, and we, especially we as Muslims,
we are believers that know. So if we do something, we put out so we
don't just
take the vaccination. When we take
the vaccination.
So I'm quite confident answer that question, that
chef I just spoke to Doctor, Doctor talila, and she was saying,
you know that you coming out here, and you know, encouraging our
people, the doctors are just how many has come for the vaccine.
There is still a lot of people that,
on account of she mentioned a voice note that
she mentioned
that had come out, shared advices for people
sitting with the MGC mufti, mostly who
is currently in hospital. We also community, please,
inshallah
has truly led our community for the whole of 2020, and covid 19,
giving us guidance as to how we as a Muslim community, must approach
covid 19 and all of these things, guidance from the Quran on the
Hadith, Alhamdulillah. Please encourage our viewers with regards
to this vaccine, you are a man of the community, serving this
community for so many years, and the doctor was just indicating
that there are some people that that are spreading these things
without verifying it from a person that's about to have a chair,
please give our people something
else regarding that important question, because that is actually
the main reason why I came here today. That's not only about
myself. I could have done this secretly and privately, but I
think especially to motivate our people and to tell them that what
we are doing is based on the Quran and the words of our beloved Nabi
Muhammad. We, as Muslim religious leaders, we won't do something out
of the fault of Islam or out of or contrary to the Quran and contrary
to the Sunnah of the NABI Muhammad is Muslim. So Allah, for example,
says, first ask the people with the with the expertise. So the
people of the expertise, we, as Allah man, we are not medical
expertise. So we need to ask people for the expertise about
about this virus, and based on what, what, what their advice, and
based on what the Quran and the Sunnah para Suri, when you put it
together. So the MGC fatwa department came to the decision
that it is permissible. And I want to repeat myself, it is
permissible to take the vaccination. It is not haram to
take the vaccination. And in fact, the MGC doesn't say only
permissible. It is encouraged,
highly encouraged for people to take the vaccination. So please,
people, there's nothing wrong to take the vaccination. I swear by
Allah Subhana. Is nothing wrong in the deen of Islam, and it is not
haram to take the vaccination. And I want to remind again and again
we have taken so many vaccinations when we go.
Into Wakan Medina, we take the vaccination for yellow people,
meditators and so many others. In fact, our babies, in the first
year, they received so many vaccinations and injections. So
there's nothing wrong with the vaccination, although, once again,
we'll take the
opportunity and take the vaccination some questions, some
statements, some comments. Let's just have a look through it.
Inshallah,
one person speaking about Assalamu
alaikum. I have a 84 year old father. Where can he go? So sister
Amina
Sheik was explaining earlier, you need to register your dad. After
registering your dad, what will happen is the Health Department
will send an SMS
with the date and time that you need to take your father to the
day hospital, whichever hospital the SMS,
and then you all need to take your ID, your dad's ID, along, right?
Just another thing to note, it was, it was a very process. It
wasn't a very long thing. You shifting
in the they collected the IDs. They moved shift into the next
area, and now we are, I think, I think the longest thing here
is the interview. So I'm coming in now.
Is and safely.
Now we are inside of
so they verifying that the person that is receiving the vaccine is
the person on the ID. I think it's probably to make sure that all
checks and balances are in place. So you have, when they take in
your ID,
you have a corresponding sticker that they give you and they put it
on your clothing. They get me also one, even though I'm not the 60
plus. But yeah, so you'll get a sticker, and then they will verify
that the person on the ID is the person that's going to get the
vaccines. And then I assume after that, the job is going to happen.
So Inshallah, in a few minutes time, our beloved and esteem
will be will be receiving his vaccination. Throughout the
process, you have medical workers, medical staff that is asking you,
are you feeling well? Do you have a cough? Do you have a flu?
Another important thing that was not mentioned is that there is a
limitation on the flu vaccine. So two weeks prior or two weeks
after, depending on which vaccine you are getting, you are not
allowed to take the flu vaccine, so please be aware of that.
Inshallah. So yeah, as I was saying throughout your from the
various stages, from the time that you get to the day hospital,
people are asking you, are you feeling well? Have you been in
contact with anyone that had covid 19 in the last few days, these are
all the shoes that are being asked all of you for the for your entire
duration, for your entire time that You are
receiving, until you receive your actual vaccine.
Hello. Right?
First, you have no right to say what you said. Secondly, how to
support your technique, talking about this regarding the vaccine.
But how many people?
Yeah, look personally. I Doctor rightly, sir, but we did speak to
a doctor, and she did advise us, Alhamdulillah,
so yeah, we will flip the camera and have us see Brahimi receiving
his vaccine. To all
of the viewers. I remind that the MGC is Mufti is currently in
hospital, and we pray that Allah subhana wa Taala grant Inshallah,
on
that side?
Excuse me.
Yeah,
Okay,
sorry.
Really,
thank
please and
for inviting me to the special day hospital,
and once again, I want to encourage all our People from all
over, kicked out, coming to the different hospitals and take the
vaccination. And I'm
feeling very well. Vaccination is finished, and I'm still well. And
I'm sure I need to be well for a long, long time. And my next
appointment is the 13th of July, about 14 days before my my
birthday, between the eighth of July before I'm going to be 66 so
once again, thank you for
inviting us. I think this is very important for us as
a leadership
because there's a lot of negativity outside the
negative
messages.
And so once again,
for the
virus
recovery. And then we ask to protect all of us. And then soon,
God Almighty Allah must take away coronavirus completely from not
only from South Africa,
but from the whole world, from
the from
the voice of our intern, and I'm sure that the message will be
delivered, and that is the purpose, why especially came
today, because
we need to to raise our voices, because we for too long, we allow
The negative voices to be the voice out there. So more, more and
more leaders from the Muslim community, from the Christian
community and the Jewish community and the Hindu community, the
leaders must come out and and put it on, on the media, so that
people can know that it's nothing wrong. It's nothing wrong to take
a vaccination. And so once again, sukran is a once again, Gabriel's
Allah, may Allah preserve him and grant him long life. He had just
taken his vaccination, the Pfizer vaccination, at the
I know about the hospital. Alhamdulillah, I must say, it is a
pleasant, pleasant experience to come to the hospital. You're in
Hanover Park. The staff is very pleasant, greeting you with a
smile, making you feel comfortable. They didn't offer any
coffee, but maybe next time when we come, they'll give us some
coffee. Inshallah, but yeah, he gave it us. Has just received his
vaccine. Alhamdulillah, we pray that Allah grants him to be with
the community of Qatar for many more years to come. Inshallah,
being in service of the community with ALLAH SubhanA wa taala.
Before we end off, we make dua and we pray to ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala
that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala grants all of our disease the high place
in Jannah, that Allah subhana wa Taala grants all of our Sikh and
Kamila, especially for our beloved mufti, Muhammad, Allah
subhanahu wa restored back to his health inshaAllah, that Allah
subhana wa Taala grants Mawlana to return to his family, and that
ALLAH SubhanA WA Salla grants him Shiva completely cured from all
ailments and all things and sufferings on the towns of covid
19 on the east currently in hospital, and we pray that Allah
grants me must be returned back to his family, and he sold back to
better health. And before.
Here for for all of our viewers that
have tuned in Allah.
