The recent terrorist attack on the UK was described as a "monster attack" by the segment on the importance of acknowledging the lack of support for Muslims and the need for people of all faith to express their support. The segment also touches on the closure of a school and the media's stance on racism and extremism, as well as the media's efforts to stop hateful media ads and their actions leading to confusion and chaos among Muslims. The speaker also discusses the need for unity against extremist hate and the need for unity against those who claim to be Muslims.

00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			One day after the horrible incident that happened
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:11
			in Finsbury Park, where this crazed lunatic
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18
			human being this individual is terrorist came and attempted to kill
		
00:00:20 --> 00:01:01
			using a very similar if not exactly the same tactic as the other terrorists and Westerners to use to
kill his victim. So here, what we're doing is we're walking around seeing what the community needs.
seeing what's really happening here, we're realizing very quickly is that actually, people of
different faiths and different backgrounds are coming in solidarity To be fair, and they're all
coming, espousing the same very message, which is that of peace and solidarity in times of distress
here in London. But having said that, it's very important for us to realize the few that are not not
doing that you are not doing that. The extremists on both sides and who, in particular, we're
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:31
			talking about right wing, far right extremists like EDL. And Tommy Robinson, him, we're going to
show you some clippings of some of his, some of his fans, you can see some of his friends, it's
going to be on the screen here, you can see some of their comments, as you can see on the screen,
here is some clear incitement to death and killing. So these individuals who are following this guy,
Tommy Robinson, and others, like him, are inspired by him in such a way as we make this thing.
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			Instead of reporting these individuals, as he should do,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:02:20
			reporting these individuals, as he's asked us to do, and he's pressured us to do, Tommy Robinson has
said, has acquiesced and allowed this kind of expressions of these kinds of expressions to be to be
promoted on his social media account. Now, here, it's not a surprise that this has happened. It's
not the first time it's happened when it comes to right wing or right wing extremists. Now, what
we're not saying is that this is representative of, let's say, white people, or let's say, even the
white wing, people who express sentiments of, let's say, right wing, saying is completely
representative of that. But what we are saying is this, this is an accumulation of,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:31
			of promotion of certain sentiments against Muslims, and it graduates to the extent whereby allows
for someone to actually take it upon themselves to kill someone.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			Or in this case, it's to try and kill as many people as possible.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:42
			So we have to really ask ourselves the question, is this going to be is this going to be
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:49
			condemned by the far right, is Tony Robinson and others like him going to say something to condemn
this?
		
00:02:50 --> 00:03:18
			how long they've opened it, they've opened it here, probably because the underground station and
things like that needs to be used, obviously, was a very important London, Seven Sisters road, which
has been closed off most of it or a big part of a big chunk of has been closed off today. And the
reason why it's been closed off, is because it's a student of tics, expressions, and what he's done.
And so it's the stuff the economic progress, and obviously, here, the message of the handler that
has opened up.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:42
			And by the way, this is an important point I want to make right now, this must adhere to Muslim
welfare, trust, or Muslim welfare house. This particular mention here is where the where the closest
Mr to the scene of the crime. Now, you'll find in the Daily Mail reporting, that the Daily Mail
people are here to show their support, Daily Mail, and other
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:51
			and other newspapers. They attribute to what happened to the other message over there, which is a
three part mosque, which isn't the message
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			that we're talking about. And the reason why they did that is because they wanted to stress
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:31
			the connection with Abu Hamza, radical preacher that was preaching in that particular mosque. That's
not the mosque he was preaching. This is not the mosque he was preaching it said different Masjid.
So this is not where Abu Hamza was actually preaching at all. He was preaching at the other mosque
there. But this was the reporting that was going on why to divert our attention away from the the
unjust actions of this man against Muslims, to injustice done by the Muslims. But here To be fair,
there's lots of people from different backgrounds coming to show solidarity to
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:59
			and this shows you that To be fair, the majority of people in this country, and majority of people,
especially in this city, are not people of racism and a lot of extremism. And they don't even
sympathize with this or feel like it's an eye for an Iowa or something like that. They are
completely against what happened. I've never seen as many non Muslims going into a mosque as this
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:08
			Hopefully we will get more and more of that happening for a lot of fun to our team. Here we are at
Finsbury Park.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:17
			You know, the scene of the incident is down there. This is where the police had blocked the road,
you can see flowers.
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:25
			The generous British people come out to express their solidarity with the Muslim community
		
00:05:27 --> 00:06:09
			in London, this barbaric, vicious terrorist attack against Muslim Muslims in this country. And we
have been very disturbed by this attack. And we have been asking for the last 24 hours as to why it
took so long for the mainstream media to come out and call it what it was a terrorist attack, a
vicious, barbaric, unacceptable, inhumane terrorist attack, just like the one that happened on
London Bridge is like the one what happened in Manchester, this was no different because the guy
drove into innocent people. So terrorists don't specifically have a religion Rather, they do things
in similar ways because they want to kill people unjustly. Okay, so
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:43
			we are very glad that the media has come out and called it what it was. It took a while it took
nearly seven to eight hours for the media to realize that it was a terrorist attack, although he was
very clear from the thought that the man was shouting that I want to kill all Muslims. I want to
kill Muslims. And I'll do it again. And when he was putting the police van, he was waving at Muslims
as if he was wanting them again, or taking the you know what we call it taking the Mickey language.
So I'm trying to basically figure out as to why it took so long but
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:49
			you know, better late than never. The Prime Minister has come out and condemned it.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			Thankfully,
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:30
			we thank Jeremy Corbyn for coming out and expressing his solidarity. We saw some Sikh gentleman here
today, distributing food. There were there were people from the Jewish community who had come out to
express their solidarity. So we're very glad to see the quilt is coming together to stand with the
Muslim community. Now we will ask a question as to what the government is going to do about those
extremists, those bigots, those hate preachers, who are no different to ISIS, or people who are
reaching hatred to cause havoc and chaos in societies, people like Tommy Robinson, people like Paul
Golding, people like
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:48
			Katie Hopkins, LBC news, radio station LBC radio station is deliberately pumping hatred in the minds
of people. When it comes to Islam and Muslims. What is the government going to do about these right
wing?
		
00:07:50 --> 00:08:08
			You know, * activists, what is going to happen? Of course, they deny Tommy Robinson denies
that he is a white right wing activist, Paul Golding. They come across as if they are representing
the British people in attacking Islamic extremism, it is actually not
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:44
			Islamic extremism they are against they are against Islam. How do we know that quoting verses from
the Quran, and telling the Muslim that your book is barbaric? And if we started to quote the Bible,
they would they wouldn't know what to do? They wouldn't, they wouldn't know what to do about it. So
if the Bible has violent verses in it, do we tell the Jewish people not to read it anymore? Do we
tell the Christian not to read it anymore? So why are they picking and choosing verse from the Quran
out of context, and quoting them like that? So they have a problem with Islam. These people are hate
preachers against Muslims. That's why they need to be stopped by the government. The government has
		
00:08:44 --> 00:09:13
			to take this very seriously. This is not a joke anymore. There are people losing their lives, there
are people innocent people dying around this country, because the government has failed to do
something about white supremacist, extremist, hateful propaganda against the Muslim community.
Something has to be done about this. And the media has left already. We hope that this incident is
not forgotten. It is not forgotten, among other incidents, and it is remembered
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:19
			for the coming years so that these things are not repeated again. Thank you very much.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			The prophet SAW Selim said that 100 plus four
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:38
			is not painful to Allah, the One who doesn't thank the people. So firstly, we should thank the
people who showed their solidarity to the Muslim community in the in London.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:59
			They came, they left their comfort zone to come to help Muslims and that's something we saw but it
came from different backgrounds, from Jews, for example, from Jewish community from South Korea,
different people from different backgrounds, who came Muslims and scan inside Muslims and helping
them and that's why we should be Oh,
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:41
			as Muslims, we should be thankful to those people who came and helped help Muslims in the in that
situation as well. We need as well from the community as well stand together against all terrible
either from the customer it doesn't have. It doesn't have religion actually, the main factor which
you like alternate, alternate alternate This is that they are against the people against the
innocent people, they are always against the unity amongst the people. And that's why we should
always as a community as for example, one of the people who lives in a blessing, they should come
together to condemn this act, especially either from you know, people who claim who claims to they
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:59
			say the Muslim, Muslim, or someone who say in the name of British values or someone who called
themselves the the defender of British values. So we should we should condemn those ones who go
against the you know the laws and don't try to harm the innocent people and try to attack them.
