00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			have to be connected to God because He
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:30
			sent me signs I see them daily, daily,
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:35
			daily I always ask myself this question If
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:38
			I was in Gaza now, how would I
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:38
			be?
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:42
			So now we put ourselves in their shoes
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:46
			I can do things they can't do, I
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			can do it now So you actually went
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			to Gaza in the last 10 days of
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			Ramadan Praise be to God, He honoured me
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			How was the situation in those days?
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			Glory be to God, I went there as
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:06
			a doctor The health situation and medicine, don't
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			ask about it But they are people who
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:15
			do nothing As doctors, we came from America
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:21
			We have everything medicine needs and more I
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:25
			was born in Caesarea 10% of what
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:27
			we have in America You were born in
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			Caesarea in Gaza?
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:33
			Yes, I was born in Gaza When we
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:35
			do a surgery, it's called a tray It's
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:39
			like a device that is placed on a
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42
			certain thing And it's sanitized So you memorize
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			it, you know it When I entered the
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:51
			operating room 10% of the equipment we
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			use For example, there is something very important
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:59
			It's called cuttery It's not clean, but when
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:01
			you bleed a little You stop it easily
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			with this There is no such thing So
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:05
			I tell them, how?
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			There is no such thing For example, we
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:12
			have gloves We have sanitized gloves Of course,
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:14
			the size of your hand When you enter
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:17
			a surgery in America The first question is
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			If they recognize you, you have a card
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:25
			You don't need it I told them my
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:28
			hand size is 5.5 We only have
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			7 There is no such thing I did
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:33
			the surgery with 7 Glory to God Under
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:36
			the patient, there is always something Like a
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:39
			tray, you put things And the patient There
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:42
			are international things everywhere There is no such
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:47
			thing You don't have it Glory to God
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:51
			When we finished the surgery They told us
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:52
			that there is a patient who is bleeding
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:55
			She was out of the surgery So we
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			went there The doctor was my colleague We
		
00:09:57 --> 00:10:00
			went there In America, when this happens Even
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:04
			here The patient is connected to a device
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:07
			Like this screen in front of us You
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			don't look at the patient You look at
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:12
			the numbers The pulse, the pressure, the speech
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			The vital signs There is no such thing
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			There is no such thing I only looked
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:19
			at the patient's face And exactly what we
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			used to see in the past You hold
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			her hand Thank God, she has a pulse
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:27
			Thank God, the woman spoke to me Then
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29
			they gave me 1, 2, 3 I don't
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			have 1, 2, 3 This thing works And
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:35
			really by the power of God By the
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			power of the One who has no god
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:39
			but Him Glory to God I am talking
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:41
			to you about his birth The colleagues who
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			were with me May God reward them all
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46
			the best They were surgeons and hand surgeons
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:50
			The stories they saw in the operating room
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:54
			We write books about them In the material
		
00:10:54 --> 00:11:00
			things Things are difficult It is not right
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:03
			to call it an operating room There is
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			nothing For example, let's say you cook You
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:09
			need 1, 2, 3, 4 This is medicine,
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			especially in operations You enter and you have
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:15
			only one For example Or this one you
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:18
			have to use Usually you use it for
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19
			the patient You have to use this one
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			for 3 or 4 So you take care
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:24
			of yourself And Glory to God, this is
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:25
			the mercy of God And the power of
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			God The patient does it And then their
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:31
			doctors, Glory to God Because it is years,
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:35
			not now Years of siege So they have
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:39
			the ability To do things without things Something
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:42
			strange Glory to God How much was the
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:45
			efficiency of the doctor in the operation Inside
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:47
			the hospital More than the efficiency I saw
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:52
			You do not depend As if you have
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			an old car But you know how to
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:55
			operate it And you have a new car
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:04
			All buttons You do not learn It is
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:06
			difficult to drive an old car Because he
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:09
			does not know Or what we say Automatic
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:14
			or normal They have the ability Most doctors
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:17
			Memorized the Qur'an Or the Qur'an
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:19
			is part of them The Qur'an in
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:23
			Gaza Like what I have and you have
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:26
			This is for everyone You see children 10
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			or 12 years You do not ask him
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			You memorize the Qur'an No, this is
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			an insult You ask how much you have
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:37
			of the Qur'an Glory to God I
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:40
			did not hear it I saw it and
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:43
			asked Especially there was a boy Glory to
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:49
			God For reading Their reading is beautiful For
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			the people of the Qur'an They have
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			their lives We are in the pride of
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:57
			bombing For drones For us I was in
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:02
			Al-Aqsa In Deir Al-Balah In Ramadan
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:06
			We pray Tarawih For drones Then you hear
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:09
			the sound of bombing And the Imam reads
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:14
			The series continues And the reading is beautiful
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:18
			It gives you stability The Qur'an gives
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:21
			you stability I was asking Mahmoud He is
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:24
			not an Imam He is a refugee He
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:28
			came to the hospital A normal person 23
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:33
			years old I said to him Your reading
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:37
			is beautiful You are a Hafidh Doctor, I
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:38
			am not a Hafidh I am from Ahl
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			Al-Safwa I do not know what Ahl
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			Al-Safwa means Who is Ahl Al-Safwa
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:47
			Ahl Al-Safwa After you finish memorizing the
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:51
			Qur'an Your sheikh tests you Then When
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:54
			you are ready He sends you To read
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:59
			the whole Qur'an In one sitting They
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:03
			are Ahl Al-Safwa I said to him
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:06
			Who is Ahl Al-Safwa He said Give
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:09
			me 6 hours But I need 8 hours
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:12
			Because there is something I need to repeat
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:15
			8 hours means the whole Qur'an Yes
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:18
			This is very important This is very famous
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:21
			in Gaza Very famous The last day We
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:27
			went to Rafah The night was in Rafah
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:29
			There was no electricity We were in the
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			hospital There was no electricity in the tent
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:36
			There was only one tent I said This
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:40
			is the tent of the Qur'an It
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:43
			is still The tent of the Qur'an
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:44
			The Qur'an is a part of them
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:50
			Glory be to Allah From my vision A
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			big part of their stability Is the Qur
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:54
			'an in their hearts Glory be to Allah
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:58
			Doctor We are not in Gaza We are
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:01
			talking about people Who are depressed What is
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:03
			happening in Gaza Did the people of Gaza
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			themselves Become depressed?
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:09
			From what I saw From what I saw
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:11
			I was in the last month of Ramadan
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:16
			I went out stronger We learned from them
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:20
			We became stronger I met a woman She
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:23
			was with her son The woman was displaced
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:27
			She was displaced from the north Three houses
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			In the north They took her husband and
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:33

00:15:35 --> 00:15:38

00:15:38 --> 00:15:43
			I started talking to her I asked her
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:48
			What do you tell me To be strong
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:50
			Do you understand me?
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52
			You are displaced You are in a war

00:16:04 --> 00:16:08
			First, this world is temporary This world Is
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			for a few days They bring the words
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			from the Quran Glory be to Allah The
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:19
			life of the hereafter Is an animal The
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:22

00:16:22 --> 00:16:25
			sustenance is halal We eat halal They have
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:28
			a source of sustenance Even you and I
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			When we see all these things We are
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:37
			humans We suffer I remember them A boy
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:40
			8 years old For 10 days I see
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:43
			him in the hospital We call it scrubs
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46
			Why is he so young?
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:49
			The last day I go out I have
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:52
			to talk to him I stopped him He
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:58

00:16:58 --> 00:17:03
			be a bone surgeon He told me He
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:07
