			Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us to whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah
were built in a similar house in Jannah. And we know the great reward that will not only be gained
but rather will fill your grave after your death. Whenever someone prays that whenever someone gives
shahada in the masjid whenever someone learns something in the masjid, yes, that will be something
that you will have on your scale
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:49
			as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato. Welcome back. Welcome back to the couch. Welcome back.
Welcome back to the place where we humiliate where we expose where we roast,
		
00:00:50 --> 00:01:31
			where we explicate where we intellectually decapitate intellect, intellectually discombobulate, and
the shovel our opponents, and today, the main feature will be none other than Ben Shapiro. Let's
take a look at the video and come back and respond in kind. We've been seeing these massive marches
all over the United States in favor of Hamas, if that doesn't scare the * out of Jews, I'm not
sure exactly what will these campuses, which are supposed places of safety and an openness and
diversity, well, when it comes to Jewish students feeling, you know, just a little threatened by
people who are now defending mass murder of Jews. And then of course, there's nothing to be done, or
		
00:01:31 --> 00:02:05
			these people who, who are marching in favor of Hamas that you would want working for your company. I
know, I know, you are in your dorm, and you're ensconced there, and you feel so comfortable with all
your friends who tell you that you're just a great person. And all your beliefs are exactly right,
toughen up sweetheart. Bottom line is that it's time for you to learn that there are lots of
differing opinions, discussion is good for you. It makes your views stronger. It is that exchange of
ideas that actually makes an intellectual community worth having. If you're not willing to engage in
that intellectual community, you're in the wrong place. Now, a video like this doesn't actually
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:40
			require much elaboration because it's pretty much self explanatory. What we're seeing with Ben
Shapiro, is that he's a man who can give it but unfortunately, cannot take it. He's a man who can
punch but see cannot take a punch. I don't think in physical terms, he can do either. But at least
in intellectual terms, maybe you can just do one of those things. You see, when it's talking about
the left wing,
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:45
			the left wing, the lefties, the liberals with a small L.
		
00:02:47 --> 00:03:03
			He is mocking. He is trying to humiliate. He's trying to deprecate and diminish some of the concerns
and some of the common things that are said by people. But then when it comes to this issue,
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:44
			where it's the Palestine Zionist issue, he effectively adopts word for word, the same parlance,
attitudes and behaviors as those who he criticizes. And this is absolutely apparent. And this is
actually career ending, frankly, I mean, this level of hypocrisy, double standard, and moral
cowardice. I cannot see how anybody from the right wing or the alt right, or from the center rights,
or from any part of the political spectrum in the Western world, can look at this and in any way.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:59
			exonerate this man, absolve this man, excuse this man, justify for this man, or anything else, this
man has ended his own career.
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:12
			But what I did find quite interesting was that recently, this man actually debated one of the youths
debated myself, Alex, atheist Alex,
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:33
			in the University of Oxford, I'm sure this is very surprising, but he actually graduated. So he's
not an undergrad. He recently graduated, if he's not an undergrad. So this is I think, the first
actual debate. He's done with a graduate in his life. And unfortunately for him, he lost the debate.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:56
			He didn't even do will within an atheist Alex, actually done better than him. And I'm going to play
one clip, which links to the previous theme of the previous of the previous video that we just
watched, in which I think atheist, Alex delivers to
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			Ben Shapiro
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:19
			for at least a knockout or knockdown blow for the round. Let's take a look at this particular clip.
It's not permitting me permitting my Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg,
Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg to do something immoral to do something to be immoral, that in the time
was not considered immoral. It wasn't considered immoral. Was it immoral, not bound
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:31
			by the Judeo Christian tradition, sure, but it by today's standards developed under the Judeo
Christian tradition, immoral. So you're, you're living off that you're, again, not to get back to
the island argument. You're living off the remains of this. I mean, where's your
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:41
			you see, this is actually a very big mistake from Ben Shapiro. And it actually exposes to us
something bigger, which is that the
		
00:05:43 --> 00:06:15
			Ben Shapiro does not have his epistemology in order. Ben Shapiro does not have his EPIs his moral
epistemology in order. You see, the argument that he was effectively making was that since culture
has changed, and he attributes the change of culture to Judeo Christian values, that such a
different take, for example, on the punitive laws, or any kind of prescriptive injunction that may
exist within the traditional Jewish corpus
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:56
			must be reinterpreted. This is effectively the argument now atheist, Alex does a good job in
teaching him or who look who's the moral relativist now, because a moral relativist is someone who
believes that morals changed as cultures do. And there is a fine distinction between I mean, some
ethicist distinguish between the moral relativist and this objectivist and all these kinds of
things. But that's a different question from a different type. The point to be noted is what
atheists Alec should have pushed and said is actually, why are you attributing the change in
morality or an ethics in the West only to Jewish or Judeo Christian values. In fact, we know that
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:37
			there's there was a renaissance and there was something called the Enlightenment period, which I'm
sure Shapiro is well aware of, in the Enlightenment period, many of the great philosophers of that
time especially the ethicist or those who engaged and indulged with ethics, like Immanuel Kant, no
less, actually attempted to establish morality without, without a reference to religion. That was
the entire project. That's why he had the hypothetical imperative in the categorical imperative.
People like him, people like John Stuart Mill, yes, some early liberals, and that's liberal with
this small l here, did in fact, invoke religious teachings, people like John Locke and others. But
		
00:07:37 --> 00:08:05
			in the Enlightenment period, you find you find people that effectively stripped themselves of
religion, some of them are atheists, and still contributed to the moral landscape that we're finding
today. People like Nietzsche, who is a compatriot and colleague of Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson,
quotes very, very often, in his books, who happens to be effectively the father of post modernism.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:34
			Although in somehow Peterson and the daily wire team and all of them, they criticize post modernism,
but they celebrate their founding fathers. It's a it's a juxtaposition, or an irony of pathetic
proportions. However, the point to be noted is, it cannot be said decisively or definitively or in
fact, at all, that the Enlightenment period, the Enlightenment period, consisted only of
		
00:08:35 --> 00:09:15
			the Judeo Christian referential point that people are looking at the Judeo Christian values, that in
fact, many of the great ethicists and philosophers were looking at ways to establish ethics and
philosophy, whether it's utilitarian philosophy of Jeremy Bentham, and then obviously, John Stuart
Mill, or categorical imperatives of Immanuel Kant or whatever it may be even the postmodernist
school of thought, without reference to religion. That's the first point. The second point is this.
And that, if you really want to see the scope of jurisprudential interpretation
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:29
			in the Jewish faith in particular, then what you have to do is you have to refer number one to the
Torah, or the Hebrew Bible. And then you have to refer to the halakhic tradition,
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:59
			which you can see in the, for example, Palestinian Talmud, very conveniently named I should say,
this is a Jewish Book, the Palestinian Talmud, and the Babylonian Talmud. You look at that, you look
at the Midrashim, which is the exegetical framework of, for example, Genesis, they have something
called Genesis Rabbah. You will see that the interpretive scope is unlike that which Ben Shapiro is
espousing, that the majority of rabbis that were executing the Old Testament will do
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:53
			So, looking at the prescriptive, the prescriptive and the halakhic, meaning the jurisprudential
versus more on primer fishy value, metaphor, isolation or spiritualization of the text didn't reach
that level, that Ben Shapiro, supposing that it did. And in fact, many, if not most, especially of
the medieval sages, he misrepresents my Modi's previously would maintain that position. So in other
words, you cannot attribute the liberalization with a small l here liberalism to Judeo Christian
called Judeo Christian values. In fact, the liberalization of the small L of the West was despite
mostly these values. Having said all of this, it seems to me that these people, I want to say these
		
00:10:53 --> 00:11:36
			people I'm talking about an atheist addicts, Ben Shapiro, and all of these people don't actually
have a static objective morality, all of them are in the same boat. Someone like atheists, Alex
would actually agree to that maybe he would say fine, and he has in the past, but I would say people
like Peterson and Ben Shapiro, are being disingenuous with you because effectively they they adopt a
very similar, similar framework, a very similar, atheistic, almost framework, secular framework, but
they just don't have the guts to admit it to you. What I find surprising in this whole thing is that
he actually put himself through that Ben Shapiro. But then he debated one of the youths that I
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:46
			debated some years ago in the University of Oxford. The Oxford forum was a atheist, Alex, but he
can't put himself to debate someone like myself.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:12:30
			And what does that say? He's picking his opponents. Maybe he's trying to build his confidence. But
Ben Shapiro, I think you should surrender. Since you can't debate. Since you can't I think you
should surrender. Yes, you should surrender all intellectual pursuits. You should surrender, trying
to defend the Zionist project designers entity, Israel, you should surrender in every way, because
you're not built for this kind of thing. You are not built intellectually, or disposition really,
for these kinds of conflicts or confrontations. So I want to see the white flag, I no longer want to
debate you. You're not interesting for me as you used to be. I'm not going to ask you for the 100th
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:37
			time to debate. I know you need to build your confidence before you face someone like myself, it
might take us some years.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:13:22
			What I want you to do, I think which is more reasonable and more aligned with your temperament is to
wit to say I formally surrender. I surrender in all ways. And that I want to see happen very
quickly. Salaam Alaikum wa Rahmatullah. How are you? Are you wasting your time on social media
again, your brothers and sisters in Islam, Nat from Norway are establishing a masjid a Dawa center.
Establishing a masjid to convey the message of Islam is one of the best deeds a Muslim can do.
There's a huge need for an annoying you know this and I know this, so that makes the room even
greater. So give generously and Allah azza wa jal give you even more
