00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			All praises to Allah.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			All praises to Allah.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			All praises to Allah who guided us to
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			this,
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			who guided us to this Mubarak house and
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			this Mubarak hour and this Mubarak day, and
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			we were not to be guided. Was it
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			not that Allah had guided us?
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			Oh, Allah. To use praise as his commensurate
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			with the majesty of your countenance and the
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			greatness of your authority.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			Oh, Allah. We do not live in you
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			with any praise. We can come up with
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			our selves rather we admit that you are
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			the only one
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			who knows the true extent of your praise
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			worthiness.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			May the peace and blessings of Allah be
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			upon his servants and messenger,
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			our master Sayidina Muhammad
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			may the peace and blessings of Allah be
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			upon him and upon his
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			noble companions
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			and upon his pure wives
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			and upon his Mubarak and blessed family and
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			progeny and upon all of those who follow
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			all of their way until the day of
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:20
			judgment.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			Brothers and sisters,
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:30
			as of
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			the last check,
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			and the numbers have undoubtedly increased since then.
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			The total number of civilian
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:43
			deaths
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			that are verified,
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			the innocent people of Gaza
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			has exceeded
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			7,000,
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			of which over 3,000 are children.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			This does not include
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			tens of thousands of
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			people wounded
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			and severely injured.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			Many of them complain
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			of burden
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			that not only burns the skin, but goes
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			all the way into the bone.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			That is untreatable
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			with the type of munition
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			that they haven't seen before.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:31
			And this is the place where munitions manufactured
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			in this America
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:33
			go
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			subsidized by your tax dollars
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			in order to be tested on the innocent
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			people of Hassan.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			They complained about birds
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			that they cannot treat because they go in
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			all the way to the bone in injuries
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			that they haven't seen before.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			At this point, the hospitals are out of
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			anesthesia.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			So surgeries are happening.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			Stitches are being put in,
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:01
			all
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			in the weakened state.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			All with the patients wincing and grimacing at
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			the pain of being operated on.
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			The fuel has run out.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			And so babies
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			who are in incubators
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24
			are not dying because there's not even enough
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			energy, enough power to power those hospitals that
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			haven't been bombed out yet.
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			Over 30 have
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:37
			been destroyed. Got it.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			People are praying. They create this. They
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			create this.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			They pray their daily prayers in rubble.
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			Not 1, not
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			2, over 30 Masaja,
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			including a resident in Jeneen
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			in the West Bay, which ostensibly has nothing
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			to do with
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			any of this.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			The oldest church
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			in Gaza.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09
			The 3rd oldest church in the entire world.
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:12
			The church of Saint
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			Porphyrios,
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			in which hundreds of people had crowded in
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			order to take refuge from the
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			incessant aerial bombing.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			Was this week, it was bombed.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			Destroying
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			and damaging
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:31
			a part of the patrimony
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:32
			of humanity,
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			of all of mankind.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:39
			If you don't know who Saint Porphyrios is,
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:43
			look it up. He's the 5th century bishop
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			of.
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			5th century means what?
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:50
			Means 200 years before the messenger of Allah
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:51
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:53
			Therefore,
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:56
			destroying and desecrating
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			the resting place, the place of worship,
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			a a man of god who may as
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			well have been a Muslim as well.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			And Allah knows the secrets that are in
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			the hearts of people.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			But in midland time, he was our guy.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			They claimed him. We claimed him at the
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			same time.
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:19
			And Allah knows that the secret that's in
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			people's hearts.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			From amongst those who were killed in that
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:27
			bombing,
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31
			are several relatives of a sitting member
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:32
			of congress,
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			Justin
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			Amash,
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:39
			the 3rd district representative in
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			the US Congress
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:41
			for Michigan.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			Members of his family several members of his
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			family were killed.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:51
			Yet,
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:54
			amongst Muslims,
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			amongst non Muslims,
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:56
			amongst
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:00
			the media, amongst the political elites, amongst the
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			legacy media,
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			still not a word of condemnation for any
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:04
			of these.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			A combination of duplicity and powerlessness,
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			Not a word of condemnation for any of
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			these things.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17
			Look. I'm not a fan myself of bringing
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			politics into the message.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			And I tell you right now, this is
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			not a political issue. I have no agenda.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			I have no horse in the race.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			I don't care about Democrats and Republicans.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			I don't care.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			If you registered to vote, good for you.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			If you did it, good for you.
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			It's a separate discussion. It's not supposed to
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			be had in this sacred
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			place, in this sacred hour of the sacred
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			day.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			However, I tell you this is an issue
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:46
			of the deen of Allah.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			That the people are being killed. They're innocent
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			civilians. Not even all of them are Muslims.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:56
			So many Christians are being killed as well.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:01
			So many UN workers who are in Gaza
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:03
			and couldn't get out and still can't get
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			out are being killed as well.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			The hypocrisy of those people who say that
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			we're evangelical Christians. What does what does evangelicalism
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:11
			mean?
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			The evangelist, the good news, to bring the
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			good news to the gospel of Christ.
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			Enduring, all of us are in favor of
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			that.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26
			What good news is there? Genocide?
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			What good news there in genocide
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			for anyone?
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:38
			If you claim that god is god of
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:38
			love,
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:40
			what love is there in being children?
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:53
			When we met the,
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			the the idolaters, the pagans of Quraish,
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:01
			who would commit fa'aish indecent acts.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:03
			And they'd say,
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			when confronted about their indecency,
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:08
			that this is how we found our forefathers
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			behaving before us.
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			And God commanded us to it.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:16
			Which is literally the same thing, the same
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			thing evangelicals,
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:19
			and the same thing
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:19
			fundamentalist
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:20
			Zionist
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:25
			Jews say with regard to their killing of
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			innocent civilians.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:29
			Quoting at times the Torah and at times
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:29
			the Talmud.
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:31
			Allah
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			commands the prophet
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			to respond to such people.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:39
			Say, Allah doesn't come out to indecency.
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:46
			This is a religious issue for this reason.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			So I'm not telling you who to vote
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			for, who not to vote for, but what
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			I am telling you is this,
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			if you believe the rasalla of the sacred
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam,
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			there is a necessity.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:00
			There is an obligation
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:03
			for you to speak to people whoever will
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:04
			listen to you.
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			If you're afraid you're gonna get fired from
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			your job or kicked out of your school
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:10
			or kicked out of this country or whatever,
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:13
			Don't put up a post on your LinkedIn
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:14
			page.
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:17
			Talk to whoever you could talk to. But
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			this is something we cannot be silent about.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			Our president, as a statement of fact, whether
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:24
			you like it or not,
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			got up in front of
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:29
			the congress
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:32
			and asked for over $100,000,000,000
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:35
			to fund foreign wars.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			I tell you as a Muslim,
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			funding endless wars in which innocent people are
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:44
			killed
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			is antithetical to the teachings of anyone who
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			believes in Allah.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			They're definitely not sanctioned by our religion,
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:57
			and we're not pacifists.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00
			But this is not sanctioned by our religion.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			It doesn't matter if it's Muslims getting killed
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:04
			or anyone else getting killed.
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:08
			This is not sanctioned by our religion.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			This is a slam dunk. This is low
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			hanging fruit.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			$100,000,000,000.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:18
			I think our generation hasn't already seen
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			endless land wars in Eurasia
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:25
			that come to no conclusion whatsoever and cost
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			1,000,000,000,000 of dollars that as fools we have
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:30
			to as Americans and Muslims, we want to
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33
			rush into another one again? As if somehow
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:34
			or another, we'll do the exact same thing
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:37
			we've been doing for the last 25 years
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:39
			and there's going to be a different outcome?
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			As it did come time, we also
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			we're in Texas. We talked to our fellow
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:48
			Texans.
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:52
			I have love for them. I have great
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:55
			hope that they can see common sense things
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:57
			as they've demonstrated the ability to do
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			in many other culture war issues.
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:04
			Is it worth getting into another multitrillion dollar
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:05
			land war
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:07
			that pulls in several countries
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:08
			overseas
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			in order to kill 1,000, tens of 1,000,
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:16
			100 of 1,000 of people
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			in a place we all agree is sacred?
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:22
			Is it something that you would rather spend
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:23
			your money on that than be able to
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:24
			pay rent
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			than to be able to buy medicine, than
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:28
			to be able to send your children to
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:28
			college?
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:34
			The money we send to Israel, the free
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			munitions we send to Israel, Israel has universal
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:37
			health care for free for everybody.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			You and me as Texans on the other
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:42
			time?
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:47
			We get to choose if we cut our
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:49
			fingers off which one we wanna have sewn
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:50
			back because we don't have the money to
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			pay for all of them.
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:57
			It's apparently cheaper to get your ring finger
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:59
			reattached after cutting it off than your pinky
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			because people have to make this choice.
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			Is it worth it? Is this what you
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			wanna pay your money for?
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			This state itself has a number of laws,
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:15
			as a matter of fact,
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:19
			that prohibits speech against
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:21
			Israel and in favor of
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			boycott, divest,
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:27
			sanctions against the apartheid
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			system that the occupation runs in Palestine.
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			Literally like Nazis.
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:36
			Like the Nazis used to make Jews wear
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			a patch to identify them openly.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			Palestinians have a different color license plate than
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			Israeli Jews do.
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:46
			But if you speak against it in Florida,
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:49
			if you speak against it in Texas,
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			you're subject to a constitutionally
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:52
			untested.
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:58
			Constitutionally
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			untested.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:02
			Set up consequences
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:03
			from the
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			state.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:05
			Already in Florida
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:07
			already in Florida,
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:11
			the student group, students for justice in Palestine.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			It's already been disbanded by state order through
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:18
			the state university system just a couple of
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			days ago.
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:23
			This is political speech on the university campus
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:26
			that is being banned by the government. This
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:27
			is not the behavior of Americans.
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:30
			Definitely not the behavior of Muslims.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			This is the behavior of communist party bosses.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:42
			It's happening right in front of your eyes.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:43
			It's happening right in front of our eyes.
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:46
			Hasn't it time come time for us to
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47
			speak with our fellow Texans
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:50
			that this same law that Florida is using
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			today and Texas is going to use tomorrow
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:55
			is going to be used by New York
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:56
			and California
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:00
			next week
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:04
			in order to ban, in order to silence,
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:06
			in order to penalize, in order to criminalize,
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			that person who writes a written statement saying
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:12
			I believe there's only 2 genders,
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			or did you forget about that?
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:18
			Did you forget about the point of the
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:20
			first amendment? Did you forget about the sanctity
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:23
			of the constitution for which your forefathers fought?
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			Did you forget about
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			the sanctity of freedom for which your forefathers
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			fought and died?
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			Only in order to sacrifice it at the
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			altar of genocide and mania.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			Look. I get the fact that there are
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:40
			some people from our friends and neighbors who
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			believe somehow or another that bite.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:44
			Mindlessly
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			abetting genocide overseas.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			That they are going to somehow hasten the
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:51
			return
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:53
			of Christ to the messiah,
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:58
			and who would not wish to meet him,
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:01
			including us, the messenger of Allah.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:06
			He gave the to this that he will
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			come back as
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:08
			a just ruler.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			He will be the one who slays the
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			Dajjal, the antichrist.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:14
			Say it now. He would be the one
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			who slays the Dajjal, the antichrist. Say it
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			now. He would meet a young man.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:18
			Imagine the prophet
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			instilled the joy and the love of meeting
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:23
			him so much. And the People of the
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			ummah and the companions of the Allah, may
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:28
			Allah be pleased with them. Let's say that,
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:30
			Abu Huraira, when he would meet a young
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:32
			man, he would ask and say to him,
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			tell him
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:44
			my
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:46
			salaam.
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			But did any of the companions of the
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			messenger of Allah
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:51
			say,
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:55
			go and give financial aid to the Dajjal,
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:58
			to the antichrist so that that day could
		
00:15:58 --> 00:15:58
			come earlier?
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:01
			You people are people
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:04
			of faith. You're not Muslims. We know that.
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:06
			We disagree with many of your beliefs, and
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			you disagree with many of ours.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			And according to the US Constitution, that's okay.
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:14
			But for the sake of the Lord,
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:17
			your critical faculties, your intellects are not that
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:18
			impaired.
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:21
			That somehow remember that you can say in
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:23
			front of God on the day of judgment
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:23
			that the love of Christ has
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:25
			caused you
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			to kill children,
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			to rain white phosphorus on
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:32
			civilian population,
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			to starve them, to cut off their water,
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			to cut off their fuel.
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			That somehow or another person who accepts Jesus
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			Christ as their lord and savior and claims
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:45
			that god has audacity to claim that god
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:46
			lives inside of them.
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:48
			That such a person will now
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:51
			validate lying,
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:54
			validate cheating,
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:55
			validate
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			the wanton spilling of blood.
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			Why? Because of the love of Christ?
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:06
			He has nothing to do with such people.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:08
			He has nothing to do with such criminals.
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:10
			Rather, the good news of this gospel is
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			there to give hope for those people who
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:12
			are downtrodden
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14
			by such
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:15
			sick thinking,
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			such maniacal thinking,
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			and we don't say our friends and neighbors
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			are maniacal. What do we say? We say
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:24
			you've been lied to.
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:25
			You've been cheated.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:28
			You've been incentivized not to put 2 and
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:30
			2 together. This is where your job comes
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32
			in and where my job comes in. The
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:33
			messenger
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			of
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			Allah That's sin being true, not just telling
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:42
			the truth because there are many lawyers who
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:43
			are talented
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:45
			at being able to sit through a deposition
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			and not say one lie, but they're not
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:48
			being true, are they?
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:51
			No. Being true with one another.
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			This is a sickness also has cracked into
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			many Muslims that are
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			closer to current culture than they are to.
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:02
			The sunnah, the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:04
			wa sallam, that we think that deception,
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:04
			lying,
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			being true faced is somehow some sort of
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:10
			strategy or some sort of sharp wittedness. And
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:11
			it's not.
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:13
			It's not. We lie. It's not.
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:15
			The messenger of the prophet said
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:20
			what? Sin be true. It guides to Bil
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:22
			to piety and piety
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			guides to Jannah, to paradise.
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:27
			Whereas lying,
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:29
			it guides to
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:30
			Fujor,
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:33
			to profligate even mischief.
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:36
			And mischief will guide a person to the
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:36
			hellfire.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			And, subhanallah, look at our Muslim American
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:43
			community.
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:48
			Not every pious person has a turban or
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:49
			a beard. In fact, now we see there
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:52
			are many villains that do the shalid,
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:54
			like wolves in sheep's clothing,
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:57
			holding their tongue back and speaking the haqq.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			What it is what is
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			demanded by Allah and his messenger
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:06
			for the sake of themselves, their own salvation,
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:09
			their people, the and for all of mankind.
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:13
			We have UFC fighters.
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:17
			Can you imagine how crazy it would be
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:18
			to get into the octagon
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			and have a match against somebody like
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			Alexander Volkanovski?
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:30
			Were like savage people who described themselves as
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:30
			savages.
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:33
			Kumar Osman was a Muslim brother, but the
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:35
			guy is scary to get into the ring
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:36
			with. Imagine.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			And then when the magic's over, the first
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:44
			thing, still out of breath, still sweating.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			The first thing to praise Allah to Allah
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:49
			and say I'm concerned for my brothers and
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:50
			sisters in Palestine.
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:55
			I open Instagram every day,
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			and I see dead children. And that's hard.
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			In the moment of exuberance and exaltation,
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:08
			do you think that doesn't have an effect
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:08
			on people?
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			Dave Chappelle,
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:14
			a comedian.
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:16
			A man
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:18
			goes out of his way, not to mention
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			that he's Muslim, out of fear of
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:23
			some of the indecency of his comedy causing
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:26
			a stain on the honor of Islam.
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:30
			A man who gave up all of his
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			career, all of his deals with corporate media
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			in order to be able to say what
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:35
			it is that he wanted to say.
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:38
			He gave up money in order to what?
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:40
			Keep his integrity. Not as a scholar.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:44
			The standard for the is so much higher.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:46
			Not as the righteous person. The standard for
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			the sali hing is so much higher as
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:49
			a
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:50
			comedian.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:53
			His said what it saved him because he
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:56
			was able to what? Twice in the last
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			week say in front of an entire audience
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:00
			that the occupation isn't right.
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:02
			That I don't agree with the killing of
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:03
			innocent
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:07
			Israeli civilians, but the occupation isn't right.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			And when Hekler
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:11
			cursed at him, he cursed at that person
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:13
			back and said, what? Don't ask me for
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:15
			money to fund your wars
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:18
			when you're gonna cut off water, food, electricity,
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:20
			medicine, communications
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24
			with innocent populations.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:25
			This is what?
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29
			What does the Ummah need from you? What
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			is Allah asking you for? What is the
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:34
			messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam asking
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:34
			you for?
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:37
			What are they commanding you to? What do
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:39
			the people in Texas need from you right
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:40
			now?
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:42
			This Texas that made a life for you,
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:44
			that gave you a place to live and
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			water to drink and food to eat, that
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:47
			we should be thankful.
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:50
			What does it mean? It means your sick
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			right now.
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			That you speak with anyone who's going to
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:54
			listen to you.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			Like Moana, Rumi said in the opening lines
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:57
			of the mess that is
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:06
			I am the one this sad story I
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:07
			have in my heart.
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:08
			I cried
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:10
			this sad tale
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:13
			in every gathering I go to. Whether it's
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:15
			a gathering of the minds or it's a
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			gathering of people in the bad state, I
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:17
			still cry and tell them my
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:20
			story. This story is the story of the
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:22
			love of Allah, mister Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wa
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:24
			Salam. In this moment,
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			that story overlaps with what? With the story
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:29
			of the killing of innocent people right now.
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:31
			And this country
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:34
			sacrificed its soul at the altar of satanic
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:35
			bloodletting.
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:38
			That masking of shaykhan is going to do
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:40
			something. Isn't he gonna come and tell everybody,
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:42
			look, this is what god wants? Or does
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:44
			Shayban change his lotus operandi?
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:46
			Someone says, how can I tell the difference?
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:48
			It's because what Allah commands to is good.
		
00:22:50 --> 00:22:52
			And what Shaybon commands to is whatever you're
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:54
			seeing right now. Killing, murder.
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:56
			If violence was able to solve the
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:59
			for the last 70 years?
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:01
			Wouldn't I have solved it in the last
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:04
			set up? Bombing civilians? Wouldn't I solve it
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:06
			in Iraq? Wouldn't have solved it in Afghanistan?
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			No, brothers and sisters.
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			Violence is not going to solve this problem.
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			It is not going to solve this problem.
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:16
			It's time that we also muster our instead
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:18
			of thinking that we're gonna put our hats
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			down and get through this, you're not. You're
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			not. Look at everyone who made it in
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			politics, everyone who made it in media. The
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:26
			kings, princes, presidents,
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:29
			governors in America and around the world.
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:32
			The famous people, influencers in America, around the
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:32
			world.
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:36
			Rich people in America, around the world, all
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			of them are tongue tied
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:40
			at the murder of children. Is that what
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:41
			you wanna be?
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:43
			This dunya is not all it's cracked up
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			to be. Your actual wealth isn't something else.
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:47
			If you cannot enjoy your money, if you
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:49
			cannot enjoy your fame
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:51
			while still being a human being and while
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:53
			still having your salvation intact in the next
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:55
			world, it's not worth it. It's not wealth,
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:57
			it's a type of poverty. Curse on that
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:00
			poverty. The lahat of Allah ta'ala on that
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:00
			poverty.
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:03
			The land of Allah on people who cut
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:04
			off food and water
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07
			from innocent children, who let the blood of
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:10
			civilians. God's curse on such people.
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:12
			May the blood of the innocents not go
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:14
			uneventually in this world or the hereafter.
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:17
			Not out of anger,
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:19
			but what out of honor and pride for
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:22
			those downtrodden people because of which Allah sent
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:25
			his prophets in order that they should be
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:27
			protected and protected, that they should be honored,
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:31
			that Allah created mankind on the greatest of
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:34
			forms and figures, on the most honorable forms
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:36
			and figures. Why? Because of them.
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:39
			May
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:42
			Allah raise the honor of the person who
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:43
			can speak a word in their name.
