			Sur Shuman.
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			He's a journalist who was in Gaza, and
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:06
			he, is now out. May Allah protect his
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			family, all of Gaza, and
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			he has shared stories of actual instances of,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			you know, miracles of martyrdom or miracles of
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			the angels and witnessing
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			them. And the more and more that we
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			see these,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			miracles, you know, one of the things that
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			he talked about is that the the air
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			in Chassa feels different. And I have heard
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			the same from people in Chassa, that the
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			air in Chassa feels different,
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			that the that the sky in Khalsa feels
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			different, that you feel this overwhelming presence of
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:35
			angels.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			And you can imagine that we have these
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			descriptions in the Quran of the angels that
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			come, and they are this
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			army, this unseen army
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala brings down to
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:46
			the believers
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			and brings down to the innocent because, as
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			we know, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala does not
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			support the oppressors. Those oppressors are sometimes Muslims.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			The greatest people of Kiyanah sometimes in this
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			time are Muslims.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			And so when we see that Allah Subhanahu
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			Wa Ta'ala is with the oppressed,
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			even the hadith of there's no, you know,
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			veil between the person who's oppressed making dua
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, it doesn't specify
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			a person who's a Muslim making dua. I
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			mean, people may not know who Allah is,
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			but they will call out to Allah. Allah
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is with the oppressed. Now,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			of course, when we are Muslims, we have
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:17
			the responsibility
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			of calling out to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			and helping other people see the beauty and
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			the the the the truth of Islam.
