Hey. Assalamu alaikum, guys. Okay. So this is

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

my first time doing this, and I don't

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

know how it's gonna come up. But, here

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

I am. I'm reacting

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

This video has caused a lot of controversy.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

It's one of the most popular videos on

00:00:22 --> 00:00:23

my YouTube

00:00:24 --> 00:00:26

for interesting reasons, but

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

it was in 2019.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

A lot has happened, a lot has changed

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

since then.

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

So I thought that it would make sense

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

for me to react to myself,

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

2 years later to see

00:00:40 --> 00:00:41

what still holds true,

00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

what I no longer believe,

00:00:44 --> 00:00:44

how

00:00:45 --> 00:00:49

I think the conversation has moved since then.

00:00:49 --> 00:00:50

So,

00:00:51 --> 00:00:52

yeah,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:53

let's let's get it.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

Nigeria.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

And it is a huge telling a story.

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

Conference. About this conference. And I'm one of

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

the few sisters who are on the panel.

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

Other people on the panel, there's some really

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

big sheikhs there. One of them is Mufti

00:01:08 --> 00:01:08

Menck.

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

The names of the others escaped me but

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

they were they were like, you know, very

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

well respected shiur.

00:01:17 --> 00:01:20

So everybody everyone had a chance to take

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

the mic and do their thing

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

and then at the end,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

they did a q and a for the

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

audience and it was huge, thousands of people

00:01:27 --> 00:01:27

there.

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

So, you know, after some back and forth,

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

they invited me to to come and sit

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

on the the stage,

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

and take part in the in the q

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

and a with the sheikh. She says that

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

she she she thinks she watched it. Yeah.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:41

So, anyway,

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

what I wanted to to kind of, you

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

know, talk about was one of the questions

00:01:46 --> 00:01:47

that came up was about widows

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

and what we should tell, you know, widows

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

in in our society.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

So we're gonna get in there, guys.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58

I think I can figure out this live

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

stream situation,

00:02:00 --> 00:02:02

So I will be doing a proper reaction.

00:02:02 --> 00:02:04

That was just like a little hint.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

That was a very long story. I don't

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

think I'm gonna be responding to that story.

00:02:08 --> 00:02:08

However,

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11

if you would like to see me react

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

to

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

my own videos in which I talked about

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

single mothers and divorcees and having standards,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

then let me know in the comments and,

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

I will definitely prioritize it inshallah because I

00:02:23 --> 00:02:25

think that there are a lot of misconceptions

00:02:25 --> 00:02:28

that are floating around. And like I said,

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

I've been on a journey and I have

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

changed in some respects.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:35

So please leave a comment below. Let me

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

know if you'd like to see that video,

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

and, of course, subscribe to the channel so

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

that you get the updates.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

And, may Allah accept our actions

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

and our efforts and forgive us our shortcomings.
