Look at what Allah has used you for,
brothers and sisters, in the last 6 months.
Just because it's the easiest example, there is
a very famous Israeli historian. His parents are
survivors of the holocaust. His name is Norman
Finkelstein. Many of you have may see his
content circulating.
This man
says, I have been an advocate for this
cause. I gave it my life, the last
50 years of my life, I've dedicated to
the cause of a free Palestine.
I didn't get married. I didn't have kids.
I don't have savings.
I know my books won't sell because they're
politically incorrect.
And if you were to tell me
6 months ago
that the protest would continue surging
and the individuals
boycotting would become entire universities
and countries divesting their investments from the apart,
I would never believe you. If you told
me the youth would still be in the
streets and the numbers are only increasing, I
would never have believed you.
You know why? Because the past 50 years,
the last half a century, he has seen
people wake up and get all loud and
go to sleep 2, 3 days later.
So now when someone asks why does it
have to be so gut wrenching?
Why does it have to be so raw?
Why does it have to take this long?
The genocide,
maybe it is because
this is what it's going to take for
us to finally liberate Palestine. Brothers and sisters,
may we see it in our lifetime.
May we see it in our lifetime.
Allah has already shown us
that by his permission, we can make a
difference.
It it is already at a point of
no return
How long it will take? A big part
of that is for us to recognize
that Allah has chosen us to make a
significant difference.
May Allah accelerate the unity of this and
accelerate the liberation of Palestine
and all of the Muslims subjugated in all
over the world. May Allah accelerate the collapse
of the apartheid regime. May Allah
continue to blind the strategies of the Zionists.
May Allah
allow us to never sell ourselves short.
And if I were to give you one
action item, you may have seen it circulating,
and I will continue to push it wherever
I can.
The majority of Muslim organizations in this country
nationally
have signed on to a strike for Gaza
until there is a ceasefire.
No life as usual.
This Monday,
no school,
no work, no spending.
I would lend my voice to that call.
Every single one of you, I highly encourage
you to take part. We're not gonna sleep.
We will not get tired. We will not
get disillusioned especially after Allah has shown us
what he has shown us in the last
6 months. We're gonna keep pushing. We're gonna
max out like never before
We're going to sustain and we're going to
persevere, and we're going to liberate the lands
of Al Quds
