00:00:24 --> 00:01:03
			Salam Alikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh How are you guys doing? I'm here in Oslo in Norway. And
we've just been doing some pro Palestinian activism. I'm fact. I'm here in the Islam net Center,
which you helped build. MashAllah fantastic, excellent people, you are excellent people, you should
be proud of yourself. And also someone else's, you should be proud of himself as this guy, one of
the loyalists, one of the patrons on the compatriots, Mohsen, who was there with us in the
demonstrations, let's take a look at his interaction with the Prime Minister of Norway and come back
and react in kind
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			tissue to somebody
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			called Lisa, hello.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:15
			Set aside
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			the list of
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			boycott these
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			three policies.
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:55
			So one of the things which is a theme in the in the protests was a call for boycott. You can see I
really liked how mustard actually lost in the first question. And then the Prime Minister responded,
okay, it wasn't too bad of a response with trying to, but then he understood the game you see most
understood the game. And this is from the training and probably I don't know if you've seen some of
the videos on the trading. Certainly he was in the process. And I really respect him. Because he
said, No, but what are you going to do about it? And how is it going to be?
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:20
			Are you going to boycott them or not. And that's when you can see the Prime Minister's on the
backfoot. Tell us more about the strategy that you're employing here in Norway, have a push to
sanctions and boycotts. So today is actually the day they are voting in the parliament. Whether or
not they should sanction Israel. Unfortunately, unfortunately, the Labour Party
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:56
			that the Prime Minister is part of representing they have decided not to sanction Israel. And that's
why it's not been met without consequence. You see, I mean, this guy is not accepting it. There are
people outside there's a tent that is positioned right outside of Parliament. Yeah. Which I went
into that tent and saw it every day, they're cooling this guy's name, that 1000s of people gathering
the pro Palestinian activism is so vibrant Haven, as long as I think it's very important that we
held our leaders in the western world accountable, yes, for the genocide, but
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:33
			we confront them, and we demand them, we need to demand from them that they they take a cloth clear
stance, and at least boycott the genocide. You're right about that. And I'll tell you what I've been
to in this kind of wave of pro Palestinian activism. I've been to so many different countries. I've
been to Canada to Germany, obviously, as the UK, I'm here, Norway, different countries. And it's all
during the conflict. And if I were to compare, right, I mean, some of these things that have been
put to parliament's for example, about should we boycott? Should we sanction? Yes, in Norway? It
wouldn't even be a question Germany, for example, it wouldn't even be a question. That would be
		
00:03:33 --> 00:04:08
			considered to be an anti semitic thing to do. Yeah, of course. So what I'm saying is that this shows
you the importance, okay. It shows you the importance of strong leadership, it shows you the
importance of strong organizations. And it shows you the importance of establishing organizations
which do work like this, because if you have people like I mentioned before, that will wake up in
the morning, every morning, you know, six o'clock in the morning, and you've got the the Prime
Minister, they're making noise outside of his house, they've literally put their have a tent, I went
and saw the tent itself, pro Palestine, 10, outside, demonstrations, all these kinds of things. It
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:48
			does put pressure, and they are forced to another position. And I think if we push it even more here
in Scandinavia, we'll get better results. So tell us more about what you're planning to do in terms
of the Muslim Civil Rights Movement here in Norway. So first and foremost, I'd like to take this
opportunity to praise the brother and I think that was a very honorable and courageous thing to do.
I love the fact that he didn't take no for an answer. He wasn't taking a lie. I think that's that's
praiseworthy when someone can stand up against the leader of a country when such injustice is
happening, and really set out clearly that this is wrong. We need to really care for those. And what
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:59
			was what was clever about his strategy, Mohsen was that he offered him a way for the Prime Minister
of the country to relieve his guilty conscience, which is
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:46
			I imposed sanctions you because I think I actually think the prime minister of this country does
have a guilty you can see from his face. And by the way, he seemed like you know, what we do want to
help the children we've seen. Honestly, I do think that I don't think he is any pro Israel person. I
don't think that the the Prime Minister actually supports the genocide. But it's just the lack of
any response. And I think that these people can move and take different stances if we as a Muslim
community, we keep on Yanni encouraging, putting pressure and do our activism. And that's why I say
that it is the center centers like Islam, that and, and other Islamic centers across the globe, who
		
00:05:46 --> 00:06:23
			are active in the field of inspiring the Muslims, inspiring people to come closer to Allah. And not
only focusing upon the Ibadat, which is a must, obviously, but also being activists and also Yanni
making the change instead of just sitting there and relaxing in the sofa. And, and then watching the
news, we need to actually encourage the Muslim communities to come forth. Yes, and you only take
action, just like the Prophet sallallahu. If you see a monk or change it with your hands, if you're
not able to then with your tongue, if you're not able to the hate.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:07:06
			The weakness of it weakest of a man is true. We're not at that level, and we cannot accept to be at
that level a lie alone. If we can't change that with our hands, then we need to at least do it with
our tongues. And if we don't speak out against injustice, yes, that there's a problem with our Eman
and we need to really encourage every single Muslim to do that. And those Islamic institutions who
are active in building, building people, men building men who are able to stand up for for the
religion of Islam, I think we need to support them. And here in Norway, you know who those people
are mistreated. And it's you and you know what I have to say to you, look, guys, I mean, we're
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:38
			talking about doing something with your hands. And I think we should do something with the hands
right now, which is the following. I think you should go to the link below and continue funding this
institution. They've done brilliant work with Alkaff. Now I've seen that they've you guys have
bought properties, self funded this organization. They're doing great Muslims of rights work,
they're getting new messages across the country, this is the place to invest. This is the place to
invest just because the pressure invest. Click the link below right now honestly, it's something we
can all do, not only for the pro Palestinian cause for the Muslim civil rights movement for the
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:45
			dollar in general. For the Muslims in general. This is the place to invest is the place to donate.
Do it now. We'll set up our
		
00:07:46 --> 00:08:29
			brothers and sisters. Let me introduce you to Norway. This is a European country where the vast
majority of people have become religious, or 200,000. Muslims have a population of about 5 million.
And also these 200,000 Muslims have no idea how to explain Islam to their non Muslim friends and
neighbors. But that means to change a law son his messenger to call people to eternal success. And
that is why Muslims in Norway are now establishing a masjid and our center to enhance the Norwegian
Dawa. What they cannot do this alone we need to support them. If you donate to this cause you will
insha Allah reap the rewards. 1000s of Muslims coming back to Islam and many of those who become
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:41
			diet and invite slum you will share in the reward for all those shareholders and good deeds to come
in sha Allah. So click the link and donate now and share the video for extra route
