We need to be honest, because really, what
light is very embarrassing. You know, some of
the messages I received, do white British people
behave like this all the time? I this
is a message to our imams and our
leaders. We should always display that we are
strong.
Even if someone were to interpret those verses
like this, we say, look at the overall
message of the Quran. The overall message of
the Quran is a message of empowerment.
It is a message of strength. White people
are not like this.
Let us not think of the We've got,
you know, these riots, these lootings, shops
being smashed. We've got these riots, these lootings,
shops being smashed.
How do you read the situation?
Yeah.
I am sure that you are referring to
the recent riots that
we are witnessing
Muharram,
by the way,
and beginning of Safar 1446.
To be honest with you, it, for so
many people,
it was a shock for so many, and
for some others, it was
expected.
Now,
we can
combine between both. Why it was a shock?
Because so many people, especially people from abroad,
they contacted me, and they were at a
shock,
for what they have seen,
you know, looting the stores and
behaving in a very,
savage way,
barbaric way,
as if they were coming from,
jungle
or jungles and
behaving in this way. And
the the many people were asking,
do
white British people behave like this
all the time?
Because, remember, when media
is presenting certain,
you know, images, video clips
about something that is happening in a country,
people think that this is happening everywhere in
every single corner of the country. That is
the
the
natural natural
perception and reaction.
So I was telling people, no,
this is not the case.
These riots are taking place in
certain
places. They are not everywhere.
White people are not like this.
Non Muslims are not like this. We have
seen so many,
although I don't like to use this term,
white indigenous
people
marching, supporting
our causes as Muslims. In fact, there were
reports
of so many white people who are
defending the mosques,
yeah,
these days, during these riots.
And someone told me that some of them
even were making
some money to fix, you know, the shops
and and
the mosques. So
this doesn't give
a correct
accurate image about the white non Muslim
community.
Now from the other side, was this expected?
If someone were to analyze the situation
carefully,
he would expect something
like this to take place. Why? How? Yes.
How is that? If you look at
the media rhetoric and
key politicians'
language
that has been used. In fact, to be
honest with you, the whole atmosphere,
since
the the war on terror. Yeah. Yeah. The
2000 Muslims using Muslims as a political football.
Exactly.
And, you know, stereotyping,
okay, of Muslims,
accusations of Muslims. And even even, you know,
when they talk about,
for example,
the the the
quote, unquote Pakistani
Muslim gang
that was grooming girls in Bradford,
etcetera. They were focusing on their what their
ethnic background.
They were focusing on their religious or Islamic
identity, Pakistanis
or Muslims
who are, you know, forming these,
these gangs to groom our girls, etcetera.
So this language
by some politicians
and as well
by,
many media outlets. Yeah. This language
charged
some people.
Yeah?
And add to this the social political
situation and maybe the deprivation
of certain segments of the wider society
and maybe other elements such as the educational
system
that might not help
in, in
in in,
fostering
a culture of tolerance, a true culture of
tolerance.
Yeah, and accepting
others,
etcetera. So there were number of factors that
contributed
in building
Yeah.
This,
this attitude. Some of them are not saying
this attitude and charging people,
and people were waiting for something to ignite,
their,
this reaction.
And this
is exactly what has happened.
It's like some of those these are ancient.
There's an author called Jonathan Lyons. He's written
a book called Islam Through Western Eyes, something
like this, and he charts the same discourse,
the same kind of recurring motifs
from the Crusades all the way to the
war on terror.
You know, that this is almost, as though,
you know, many people have written that
when when Western Europe came to start to
define itself, it was in contradiction to Islam.
Yeah. To using Islam as the other to
define itself. Yeah. And there are certain recurring
things like the invaders, the the taking over,
the taking of women, this kind of stuff.
And it's it's repeated throughout history. And in
in recent history, like you were the Trojan
hoax Yeah. Kind of scandal Yeah. You know,
falsified documents and and just Yeah. People like,
Michael Gove kind of
piggybacking and hijacking these these kind of touch
points
that are already kind of latent in the
imagination. Yes. Yes. And just kind of using
them as a as a quick kind of
political football for Yeah. Or whatever thing. I
mean, I mean, because lots of people
are disillusioned. They have rubbish lives. They have
no meaning in their life. They have, you
know, even financially financial issues or communal issues,
family breakdown, and stuff like that. Yeah. And
here you have politicians
Yeah. For
years, instead of doing something about it or
actually coming clean, like, you know what? These
are political decisions we made, austerity Yeah. Liberalism,
neoliberalism, whatever. They'll just say, oh, actually, it's
the it's the it's the immigrants' fault. It's
the Muslims' fault. It's the Yeah. Those are
your Actually, Yani, if I may summarize what
you have mentioned, because this is quite important
and deep. Two points you mentioned.
The first point, which is, you know,
which is an identity
crisis.
Mhmm. Yeah? And
this crisis is manifested when you, as you
said, in,
and, you summarize the book of Jonathan
that when you
identify
yourself,
yeah, in comparison to others Mhmm. Whether it
is a positive comparison or negative comparison, it
means that
your existence
is,
dependent on others, positivity or negativity. This is
an identity
crisis,
and this is what we have been saying
that
Europe is
suffering from this identity crisis for a long
time.
What is Europe? And that's why when we
say European Muslims, is it geography that is
identifying
Muslims,
or is it history,
or is it religion? Is it culture?
Religion? Of course, it is not because
there is now a shift to transformation.
I remember the Czech Republic, I think, a
few years ago, they identified themselves as,
as a non Christian country. They used to
identify themselves as Christian country, but with the
rise of atheism, etcetera. So they they removed
that from their constitution.
Something like this. This is according to some
brothers from them. So is it religion that
identifies Europe? Is it what is it? A
culture? Is it Europe? Is it white, a
white continent?
No. So when you have this crisis, you
start
attacking others to what? To build an identity
for yourself, which means that you are unable
to
have your own
identity with your, you know, own ideology. And
this is a a big crisis
Europe is facing. This is one thing.
The the the second thing is
when you start,
you know,
labeling others and attacking others, yeah, in order
to claim,
exclusively,
goodness
to yourself.
This is again
a problem because it means that you are
unable
to
coexist
with others in a in a peaceful way,
not just only in a peaceful way, in
a fruitful way that will benefit
the the society at large.
So the
the, and that's why even when multiculturalism
was attacked,
there was no alternative.
Yeah. In fact, you know, when they were
attacking multiculturalism,
they are telling
people like the far right, those who are
committing this, you know, the the making these
riots and committing these crimes that,
see,
you have to force others
to be
the way you want
to be like you. And this leads me
to another crucial point,
which is, you know, in any society,
if there is
polarization,
yeah, that,
that will be, that paves the way to
the destruction of the society.
Yeah. Because
hegemony
and,
and and and,
fruitful
coexistence
despite
diversity
cannot
exist.
Yeah.
There will be polarization,
us
versus others,
the others. Mhmm. And that
will be like,
the fuel
that will
provide
sectarianism,
racism Yeah.
Civil by powers. Exactly. Civil
disruption,
and it might lead actually
to civil wars. If you look at civil
wars with the in Arab countries, in Lebanon,
long time ago in in the eighties or
before the eighties, or some other civil wars
in some other,
African countries,
it was mainly
there was
a level of polarization.
And when they
the moment came for,
the exploitation
took place, then there was a civil war
between,
others,
between,
between them. Now
we have to be careful.
Yeah.
And this is a message for all,
the authorities, the wise people from
all communities, including Muslims.
We need to be careful,
yeah,
not to this not to allow this polarization
to take place in our country,
because it will destroy us all. It will
not destroy just
a particular segment from,
of the society.
And we should
the government in particular,
the people in authority and empowered, the decision
makers,
they should find a formula
to use this diversity
in favor
of the flourishment of other country, not to
exploit
on this
diversity.
Otherwise,
the country
wouldn't suffer. But, I mean, unfortunately,
divide and rule
Yeah.
Yeah. You know, the
divide and conquer. And these are, like, staples
of power. Yeah. Yeah. And at the time,
something about the genius of of Islam, the
sharia, I've noticed,
was that,
you know,
normally,
powerful
rulers or whatever, they want to separate people.
Yeah. But the the prophet, salallahu alaihi wa
sallam, when he entered Medina, the first thing
he said is the first address. The part
of it was Yes. Afshul Salaam.
Are you Hanat?
Yes.
Exactly.
Join the ties of kinship of your tribe,
of your family, extended family. Yes. This is
like the opposite of what
emperors and even modern states try to do.
They try to fragment society. Yes. They try
to atomize. Yes. Hannah Arend, the political theorist
family, she said
atomization is a precursor for totalitarianism.
Yes. You break up the bonds within the
thing. But the prophet is
going out of his way Yep.
To
say, no. Build those things. Almost as though
you're building something that's gonna be a potential
threat to the ruler himself. Power up to
the power. Yeah. He's saying he knows
that I might be the the just ruler
today, but you need to build your society
from the ground up so that tomorrow in
a 100 is a 1000 years, someone who's
not
so merciful
might be in charge, then what you're gonna
do? You you won't have your
You you know this hadith is so deep.
Mhmm. Okay. Maybe No. You wrote a paper.
Yeah. I wrote a paper about it. It
is so deep. Even the first statement, Apsu
Salam. Apsu Salam spread salaam
for everyone.
Okay? For everyone. So this The basic need
of, exactly. Which is peace. Not only just
peace.
Yeah. Because this is you know, when they
talk about Abraham Maslow in 1960 something, when
he came up with the hierarchy of needs
and everywhere was celebrating that, we came up
with
the true hierarchy of needs,
more than 1,400
years ago, and, and which is, first of
all, peace,
security within the society. But the prophet salallahu
alayhi wasalam
added
one more dimension, which is what? Which is,
not only peace, but also
knowing each other. Because the salaam, spreading salaam
helps each other
helps
ourselves to know each others. Okay? Yeah. And
along with
means feed.
Okay.
Feed. Provide food for everyone.
Yeah. This also builds
a very strong
society, not just community, but society. Because the
prophet
said,
and he knows that the people in Medina
Medina is a multi faith, multicultural
society multicultural society at that time. So the
prophet want
or wanted
everyone to practice this, Muslims,
Jewish people,
Christians, and there were atheists as well in
in in, in Medina. So, this is this
is so significant, and that's why we, Muslims,
we need to
find a way. Maybe there are
some elements within the government decision makers,
the authority.
They are in favor of divide and rule.
We, as Muslims, are facing this bigger challenge
not to allow this to be a policy
that governs our country.
We should find
and think out of the box of finding
some ways
to to stop this or to eliminate it
if it is there, yeah, and to replace
it with another formula
that is as close as to Islam. And
here, by the way, you know, I know
this is a big
it is a big challenge because,
you know, fighting racism,
you know, and the, you know, the problem
of minorities in any country is a big
problem. And in social politics, they consider this
as one of the big challenges that is
facing any any system,
minorities, and how to deal with minor minorities.
Because minorities, by nature, they like to be
clustered. They like to, you know, be insular
to a certain degree in order to protect
themselves.
Yeah. And this is an example. You know,
these riots,
okay, we we don't want to go through
the conspiracy
road
by saying that they want to be they
want us to be ancillary. They want us
to,
be
isolated.
I don't think so. Yeah. And even if
that was an agenda, we should not allow
this to happen.
Yeah. So what I was saying is that,
the treating minorities
in any society is a challenge for the
society, for the system.
And
most countries, you know, when they talk about
secularism, secularism
in many countries failed in India, which is
the big secular slash democratic
country failed miserably in many situations and many
other.
And in America even, you know, sometimes
we see looting and we see riots. Here
in Britain, we see segments of the society
are doing that. Yeah. So,
the absence of the Islamic
system, the absence
of the Islamic even spirit Or ethos. Or
ethos,
yeah, or adopting some Islamic solutions,
is not there. The adaptation of Islamic solutions,
is not there. So that's why we, as
Muslims, should expect this to happen. And this
is my other point, that we as Muslims
should expect this to happen,
regularly,
frequently,
and we should,
put we should really think about solutions
for dealing with this problem. No. And at
the end of the the the during the
election time, I was thinking, you know,
maybe this hadith, hadith of salam Yeah. Could
be, like, the the the basis for, a
political theory for Muslims in in the in
the west. It it is. It is. It
is. It is. Yeah. It is it is
a foundation of our political philosophy.
What do what do we want
for ourselves, for society? Because also people because
of the
the the lens of suspicion,
the,
the problem at the pathologization
of the Muslim mind with things like prevent
and counterterrorism and extremism and
Islamophobia and racism and stuff. Yeah. There's lots
of people who are kind of uneasy about
Muslims. What do they want? Yeah. They're growing.
They have so many kids there. The Muslim
vote campaign, all this fear mongering and stuff
Yeah. Which obviously, it it feeds into these
the the the these eruptions of violence. I
agree. So that could be one of the
things that we say, hey, we present here.
Here is our
manifestos,
so to speak. This is what we want.
We want
security, safety,
economic prosperity
across For everyone. People. For everyone.
We want to,
you know,
join ties of kinship Yeah. Join ties
of community Yeah. And provide a space for
Yeah. For and for. Exactly. This is this
is actually these are the elements,
on which,
the Islamic
civilization
is built on.
These are the main requirements for, quote unquote,
Islamic state. Yeah. And by the way, I
mentioned, anyway, we don't want to be, you
know, that rest here. I mentioned that the
brothers, you know,
you know, the young brothers when we're they
were chanting, Sharia, Sharia, Sharia. I said to
them, brothers, you need to understand what does
Sharia mean. Look at the hadith of the
prophet
and what were the first requirements,
his manifesto to establish
the first Islamic state of Medina. He did
not say, and I
I will apply
the hudood and, you know, the the prohibition
of reba, etcetera,
just from the beginning
because
Sharia is wider than this. This is actually
Sharia. Yeah? And these elements, we are not
denying them that they are part of Sharia,
but they are maybe a small segment of
Sharia, and they have their own place. Anyway
but back to,
you know, what
you are saying. I would like also to,
you know,
present or forward an advice for the Muslim
community.
Never ever, even if we are targeted,
don't feel victimized.
Yeah. Don't feel victimized.
If you live with this mentality that you
are
victims,
you are targeted,
you are weak, you are
a minority,
etcetera,
you will never flourish.
And look That goes to one of the
questions that came in. We were we were
asking for one of the questions that you
wanna put to Sheikh Islam the Masha'ik about
what's happening. Yeah. And one is, should we
hide our Muslimness in public? Should we stay
at home? Should we Yeah. Yeah. We should
do not,
you know, under any circumstance, behave like this.
Maybe
individual cases maybe can have different rulings,
okay, but that should not be As a
general policy. Exactly. Yeah. That should not be
the rule
or the norm.
And look, even Muslims when they were prosecuted
in Mecca, they did not behave like this.
Even when
Khabab, Ibn al Arab came to the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam, the very famous hadith in
Sayyid Abu Khali, and he said, yeah, Rasulullah,
look at what they are doing to us.
You know, they are prosecuting us. They are
torturing us, etcetera, etcetera. The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam
did
not sympathize
with the companions
despite,
you know, he knows that,
Somalia was killed and
Khabab al Munawla Arak is tortured, and he
witnessed,
Bilal when he was tortured. He tried to
defend them of solutions,
but he did not use this as a
basis
for the mindset or building the mindset of
the Muslim community.
In fact, the prophet
showed them the vision
that Gave them a victorious
Mindset.
Mindset.
Yeah. Victorious narrative that will build the right
9
mindset. And that's why the Quran
yeah. The Quran never
spoke about Muslims
when they are in a situation
of
weakness
in a way to accept that.
The the Quran doesn't want,
Muslims to accept that they are a minority
and weak.
That's why So it does does mention stories
of minorities of Muslims that were killed or
tortured. No? Yeah.
Those who cannot, they don't have any other
evidence. Or like the the people of the
the ditch
or.
Yeah. But
but yeah. So the way the Quran spoke
about them is not that the, Quran accepting
their weaknesses, and they have to live with
it.
Live. Okay. This is my point. To live
as a minority, to live as a a
subjugated
community. The Quran never accepted that. Yeah. In
fact,
even if someone were to interpret
those verses like this, we say look at
the overall message of the Quran.
The overall message of the Quran is a
message of empowerment.
It is a message of strength.
Don't be saddened. Don't show weaknesses
because you are superior as far as you
are Muslim.
And
my point here, the Muslim community and the
imams
should make sure that this is the message
that we have.
This leads me to another point, which is,
you know, just because of time. You know?
We should always display that we are strong.
Yeah.
However, we need to
act in a civilized way.
So there is now we need to maintain
that balance.
We are strong. We are not coward. We
are not subjugated. We don't accept to be
subjugated.
Yes.
On
the mean in the in the mean in
the meantime,
we
are
behaving in a civilized way.
We don't want to break the law because
breaking the law has many consequences.
You know, in the riots during the Bradford
riots and in 2001,
2, 3,
many brothers, innocent brothers, they were done for
10, 15 years in prison.
Yeah, which is which was a disaster. This
is this is a disaster, but the other
thing is we are so keen to maintain
peace in any society
we live in, in any country we live
in. Yeah? Because this is just the basic
requirement, as we said, for all human beings.
So we should strike that balance.
Yes?
And we say to our brothers, masha'Allah, those
who came to defend themselves and displaying kind
of strength,
do it, but in a civilized way. And
don't do it
in a way that people will,
use this to label you as savage people,
barbaric people, and maybe,
like some newspapers,
they put some of the images of those
brothers when they were wearing mask and chanting
Allahu Akbar with some of the ISIS images.
Yeah. We don't want this false association. We
don't want the word Allahu Akbar to be
misused
and to be a slogan for
for So that was another one of the
questions came in. Should Muslims defend themselves
and their communities and So, yeah. What's your
advice? First of all, we need, as I
said, we need to display strength and power
and resilience, and we are not coward.
We need to be smart how to display
this.
And in the meantime, we need to show
our
superiority
in akhlaq.
Yeah. This is so important that we are,
okay, ethical people. We behave in a very
civilized way. This is stereotyping about Muslims,
the negative stereotyping
about Muslims, that they behave in this reckless
way, etcetera etcetera.
We should,
replace it with the opposite
image, which is the true image. Now in
some circumstances,
Muslims,
when they were, if they are attacked, they
should defend themselves, and I think the law
even allows
this. But they, again, they should be smart
the way they defend themselves.
And
I want to add one point, which is,
let us
not
think
of,
the defensive mode all the time.
Okay. Let us come
with initiatives.
Yeah. That,
that do not put us in the defensive
box.
Initiatives
maybe in engaging with so many of those
people. Yeah.
The the far right or other people,
Because remember,
some of them, they are sincere. They want
to defend them, their children, and they were
maybe brainwashed by some media outlet, social media,
wrong,
you know, wrong information, etcetera.
So we need to be to engage
with them, and,
you know, engaging
with them in this
shows,
bravery,
shows
confidence.
Yeah? And, it in fact, it empowers us.
And that's why we need to change the
a bit of,
strength and confidence to do, though, because otherwise,
people will see that. And if they don't
have that that comfort in their skin as
Muslims,
they will feel why why are you, you
know, letting them
to the masjid? Why are you selling out?
Why are you, you know, inviting them in?
And they'll feel like, you know, you've taken
a weak position. Yeah. I I agree. That's
why we need to do it in a
clever way not to be seen like
this, either by Muslims or non Muslims. Mhmm.
Yep. Mhmm. Yeah. So what what else is
your advice to the the Muslim community then?
Yeah. So so we need,
to defend themselves. Defending themselves within the law.
Yes.
Don't don't hide your Muslimness. Don't be less
visible as Muslim apart from, obviously, if there's
a specific case here there. Yeah. Generally speaking
as a policy Yeah. Don't try and don't
be less visible to try and Exactly. Try
and use this opportunity to give.
Mhmm. Yeah? To the wider society by our
behavior, by your behavior as a Muslim that
you are not
acting in this reckless,
you know,
savage way.
Yeah. So use this opportunity
to give dawah. And maybe
maybe in some other areas, Muslims can
display
themselves,
okay, in a civilized way, and maybe they
can,
help the situation.
And that's why I always say that wherever
whenever or wherever we reside as Muslims,
we should provide some activities for the whole
society.
From, you know, I was talking to a
brother
just today after Fajr about the cleanliness of
our area, that we need to do something
to clean
our area and to provide some other services.
We need to come out.
We should not
live in a comfort zone or a bubble.
That
is not conducive for our flourishment
as,
as a Muslim community. Hashem, all of these
things, don't they
require
Muslims to be
more organized and have some strategic direction from
imagine a young person listening.
He wants to be he wants to defend
his community. He wants to defend his street,
whatever. Yeah. Some far right thugs or whatever
are burning down a library or Yeah. A
police station. He wants to do something. Yeah.
But
where are the Muslim leaders giving authority? This
is true. This is true. So that's why
this is a message to our imams and
our leaders to maybe
use this content, and I know that some
other,
some other statements were produced
by, you know, different imams and and different,
you know, groups of imams and organizations.
And although
many of them, they did not focus on
the proactive
measures. They
focused on very active measures. Okay. But let
us focus on the proactive measures. And
as imams, we should give our community
some ideas
of what they can
do. Yeah. Instead of focusing
the the language in,
I prayed in 2 mosques or 3 mosques.
The language that has been fostered
so far is, okay, sisters, be vigilant.
Okay. Scaremongering.
Mhmm. You know, messages.
Sisters. Okay? And lots of people are sending
around messages. Be careful of the this area,
that area. They're coming here. They're coming here.
We we we I I don't think we
should, you know,
circulate those messages. I'm going for a walk
the other day, and my wife was saying,
you know, take my take your son with
you, take your son, you know. So he
has few people. Yeah. I was like, what
are you talking about? I'm just going to
a park. She's like, no. No. Take care
of them.
And then I saw, like, just
like, hijabi sisters walking around pushing their push
chairs in the back. Yes. Yeah. You know?
I don't know if they didn't see the
deal. So we we should not We sometimes
we kind of all Internalize.
Internal yeah. We kind of, Yeah. Yeah. And
and and and, you know, creating
by ourselves
an an utmost
fear of fear.
We we really need to be careful about
that.
Yeah. So Muslims should come out and should
use this opportunity
to give dawah.
They
should which is a key point, which we
should use this opportunity
to present some intellectual
solutions for
the problems we are facing in the UK.
Okay? Whether the the racism problem, whether the
multi multiculturalism,
issue or question
poverty,
and education,
etcetera etcetera. And
we should present that. We should also take
this as an opportunity
to say that,
look, whenever
we are,
whenever some Muslims commit a crime,
immediately we condemn.
And then you start or the government,
they start attacking our madrassas, the Islamic educational
system, the masajid,
that these are the places that foster
and that radicalize
those people. We didn't see,
I was following the news,
and there was no
as far as I have read, there was
no question of,
who radicalized
those people.
Yeah? Because the people are would that would
answer the question would be pointing at themselves.
Exactly. Yes. Okay. It is the system
or maybe elements of the system or fact
of a fractions of their system.
Who radicalized
those people? What are their we need to
be honest.
Okay. Because really, well, it is very embarrassing.
You know, some of the messages I received
from my brothers abroad and and some other
friends.
They they were, you know, sending me some
video clips,
and, well, why it's very embarrassing to say
that this is our, you know, country,
and this is our, you know, people are
doing this. Yeah? And even some of them,
they said, I was considering coming to the
