00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			I wanna start.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			Okay. Bismillah, I think we're live.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			It always works out. Anyway,
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			why are we here, Tariq? Let the audience
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			know.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			We are here tonight, brothers and sisters,
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			to support Islam
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			21 c and you are privileged on this
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			night. There could be day little card that
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			could be the odd night of Ramadan in
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			these last 10 days. You have the opportunity
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			to support Islam 21
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			c and one of its core campaigns,
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			Palestine truth. Inshallah.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			We'll be talking a lot more about that
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			Inshallah. Saman's got some juicy information, some stats,
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			some figures, a bit more about the campaign
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:43
			Inshallah.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			But about those discussions we're gonna be having
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			tonight inshallah, we'll have some special guests coming
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			for you very soon as well.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			But the idea is for you to learn,
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			understand, and be ready to act to make
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			a difference. And we are calling on you
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			tonight to act, to support this cause,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			to support Islam 21 c in their campaign
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			Palestine truth inshallah. We all know what's going
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			on around the world. This is
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			unprecedented.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			We haven't seen
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			a catastrophe like this in a long time.
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			And even if there's something that's been of
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			a similar scale, a similar magnitude,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			the narrative that has been brought forward around
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			this, that is definitely unprecedented.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			It's changing mindsets,
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			paradigm shifts. So, Alhamdulill, we got a lot
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			to talk about tonight, Insha'Allah,
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			and we'd love to get your support as
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			well. Gonna be joining my chef, doctor Sajid
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			Omar as well. Inshallah, he's and if you
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			might be wondering where is he,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			we're just, because he wanted to do these
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			streams in a
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:37
			with
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			as little,
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			interruption to people's airbags as possible. We're squeezing
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			it in between Tarawee and, you know, PM.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			Yeah, man. So, he's just finishing up his
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			Tarawee in his local machine and heading back
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:51
			to his home now. He'll be with us,
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			at some point soon.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:54
			Insha'Allah.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56
			Insha'Allah. Fantastic.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:59
			Well, brothers and sisters, tonight is a special
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			night. I'm sure some of you, are maybe
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			hanging around the Masjid, maybe on your phones,
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			maybe you've just come home after Tawawir.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			And you know, I
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			read a quote tonight and it said that
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			it was a quote by 1 a big
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:14
			Sheikh and, his name eludes me, but the
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:15
			point is very powerful. That does not elude
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			me. He said, don't just search
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21
			for the lay little Qadr in between the
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:22
			pillars of the masjid.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			And he mentions he goes on to list
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			a bunch of different ways that you can
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			search for.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			He mentions
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31
			to clothe the poor, to feed the hungry,
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			to help the Ummah. And he goes on
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			and on listing these things. So
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			this point is very pertinent tonight, brothers and
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			sisters. You know, sometimes
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			we are
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			almost deceived to think that
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			is just for us and our own personal
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:44
			Ibada.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:46
			But the prophet Muhammad alaihi wa sallam said
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			to me profound. And
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			as someone being in this sector,
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			you know, working with charities for many years,
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			I've always had to look for inspiration and
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			this is that one hadith that kept me
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57
			going and it says
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			the prophet Muhammad
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			said, it is more beloved to me
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			to help my brother in his time of
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			need than to spend the whole month in
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			it to in my Masjid and he's referring
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:09
			of course to where
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13
			the deeds are a 1000 times more awardable.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			So if this was the sacrifice the prophet
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			Muhammad was willing to wake, make for himself
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			and his own Ibadah,
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			but for the greater good of helping a
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			Muslim,
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			because they're going through difficulties, they're going through
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:25
			hardship,
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			then what can we say for
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			the opportunity to invest in an organization like
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			Islam 21 c, who is defending the rights
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			of Muslims, who is protecting their identity,
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:36
			who is trying to bring them out of
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			the depths of darkness into light.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			So we understand Islam deeper. We understand
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			Islam in a more meaningful way. And you
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			have the opportunity tonight not just to do
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:46
			your own
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:51
			you know, Quran, Dua, Athkar, all these beautiful
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			things that bring us close to Allah.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56
			But maybe maybe tonight's the night that by
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			supporting an organization like Islam 21 C,
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			the deeds you'll get from that will will
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:04
			maybe Allah knows best outshadow the other personal
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:07
			deeds you did for yourself because the impact
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:09
			is so much greater. So inshallah,
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			very simple for you to donate. You just
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:12
			go to slam 21c.comforward/live.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			That's where you can watch us. You can
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			also find donation links there. We'd also love
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			to hear from people. You can call in
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			now on 0
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:22
			7769-433-414.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			Let's see who gets the call first, me
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:26
			or someone.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			Yeah? So brothers and sisters, we are looking
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:29
			for
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:33
			an a number of special people to donate
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			special amounts.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			Let's start with a £100. Okay?
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			We're looking for
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			50 people
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:41
			to donate £100.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:45
			50 people to donate £100, and that will
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			help us to reach our target tonight of
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:47
			£5,000.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			Personally, I think we can do it. And
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:51
			if you're ever gonna say we can do
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			it on a night, this is the night
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			to say
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			it. So
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			brothers and sisters,
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			for those who are out there suffering
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			and they're sick, maybe we should give on
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			their behalf.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			For those who are out there going through
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			hardship
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:10
			and they're looking to push the calamity away
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			from them, then maybe they should give and
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			that calamity will be worn off as a
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			result. For those who have got loved ones
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:19
			who've passed away, they're no longer with us,
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			then maybe we can invest in that inshallah
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			and give them the opportunity
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			to have deeds come to the grave because
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			you, a son or a daughter invested inshallah.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			So please tonight support us love 21 C.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			So let's talk a little bit about the
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			campaign.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:37
			What is Palestine truth? Why did it come
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			to fruition?
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			What's the objective? What are you trying to
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			achieve from it? Let's talk a bit about
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:43
			that inshallah.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			Well, we have a, we have a little
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			presentation actually. Should we bring that up on
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			the screen? Let's go for it.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			Let's see what happens when
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:55
			hopefully, nothing will, start melting into,
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:56
			blame. Okay. Wicked.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			So, yes,
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:59
			campaign we have,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:01
			because sometimes
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:04
			we've been around for almost 20 years. We
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			were saying the other day on the first
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			live from Shafei.
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:10
			And, the best of that longevity is that
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			sometimes things might be a bit cantankerous. We
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:13
			don't have the agility for us as a
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:15
			same agility as a small,
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:18
			new organization, but you do have those processes
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			and and and
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			and, structures in place, alhamdulillah. One of them
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			is these campaign
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:28
			initiation documents and these campaign plans and process
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			and stuff like that. So similar we like
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			we done for the oil campaign, Sanford,
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			the in the issues campaign. We've got a
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:37
			few campaigns that we're planning to get to
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			a point doing a few a year. And
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:42
			this Palestine truth campaign, obviously, it came out
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			of, the genocide on Gaza.
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			And it's,
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:48
			it's it's there to do basically what it
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			says on screen. So,
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			tackling some of the misinformation,
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:54
			tackling the disinformation,
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			tackling the lies and so forth,
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			in a robust way using different types of
		
00:07:59 --> 00:07:59
			multimedia.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03
			There's so much stuff out there already,
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:03
			but,
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			some people might get kind of, almost
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			inhibited by the the scale and the magnitude
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:09
			of,
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			the information like an overload.
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			But Alhamdulillah, we've been working,
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:18
			in the background with specialists, with people. We
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			had also a book published, alhamdulillah, in our
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:21
			annual dinner,
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			by, Hamza Tortoise, who will be joining us
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:25
			in a few days, inshallah, for these live
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			streams,
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			on specific kind of key,
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31
			disinformation points to to set the narrative,
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			straight using high quality
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			multimedia, you know,
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:39
			products and so forth to, you know, so
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:43
			education, promoting awareness, busting myths, you know, boycott
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:46
			guidance, FAQs, Palestinian sharing Palestinian voices,
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			and things like that. So a very,
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			kind of
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			concise coordinated campaign
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			on
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:59
			addressing the misinformation about the Palestinian cause. Because
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:01
			at the end of the day, this is
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			a this is a battle of narratives and
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			discourse. You know? Shafaeta was saying the other
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			day that this is, you know, where the
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:09
			the main
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			lots of people are saying this is where
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			the main kind of, battle is now, you
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			know, between truth and falsehood. It's not simply,
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			you know, physical warfare like maybe used to
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			be back in the day, but it's actual,
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:23
			you know, propaganda, fighting propaganda,
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			with truth, you know. And, this this is
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			this is you know, what what it boils
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:31
			down to. It was similar. It was like
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:33
			this. It's always been like this to some
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34
			degree. You know?
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			I don't know if we, depending on your
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			masjid, what how what just you're reading,
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:42
			in the, for example, but today or yesterday
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:44
			or tomorrow, you would have come across Surah
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			Fusilat, you know, and I was just listening
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:46
			that,
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			you know, they say
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says, Waqalalazin
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:50
			kafrullahatisma'ulihadil
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			Quran.
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:55
			These disbelievers, the people in Mecca, they they
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:58
			would say don't listen to this Quran
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			and make noise during it.
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			Yeah. So other people can't listen.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			Yeah so there's a causal relationship here. Don't
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:13
			listen to this Quran, make noise during its
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:13
			recitation
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:15
			so that you may
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:16
			be victorious.
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:19
			Right? So the victory of, of falsehood,
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			even in a physical sense is linked
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:24
			to hiding the truth, stopping people, listening to
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			the truth,
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:28
			and and and so forth. So this is
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			something that's a kind of common thread throughout
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:32
			history, you know, in Musa alayhis salam and
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			Firaun, we see and and Sheikh Al Sajid
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:35
			when he comes we're gonna talk about this
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			in a bit more detail and share examples
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:37
			of
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:41
			disinformation encountering misinformation propaganda.
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:42
			Musa alayhi salaam,
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:45
			he his story in the Quran, you know,
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			it's there's no there's no
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			a coincidence that he's he's the most oft
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:50
			quoted,
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:52
			prophet and and the his story is the
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			most oft quoted story in the Quran.
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:57
			It's full of lessons for us swadda and
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:00
			he he was subjected to probably all the
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:00
			same
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			categories of misinformation and propaganda
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			that we see today still You know, Firaun
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:08
			he said to him what he said,
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:10
			you know, weren't you the one who
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			we looked after as a child? You know,
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:13
			trying to
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			impute some kind of sense of,
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			sense of duty or sense of having, you
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:22
			know, other people owing you something. We see
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:22
			this
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:23
			today.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			Didn't you kill someone and you did this
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:28
			and you did that and then you ran
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:28
			away
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			trying to change the subject,
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:34
			attack the attack the person, ad hominem attacks,
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			for example. We see that all the time,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:38
			ignoring context.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:50
			Mala his chiefs you know the the chief
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			propagandists
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			included
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			is saying what are these people this Musa
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			and Harun they're just here to come to
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			drive you out of your
		
00:11:58 --> 00:11:59
			land
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			and you know do away with your exemplary
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:04
			superior you know values and so forth.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:07
			There's national security threat basically you know. So
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			we see this right from the beginning and
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:11
			all this type of misinformation disinformation
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			and it's being used against our Palestinian brothers
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:15
			and sisters as well. And
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:16
			there's there's
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			unfortunately
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:22
			it's unfortunate that we don't have a proper
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:22
			functioning
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:26
			independent press that holds power to account
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:28
			in pretty much all around the western world,
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:30
			in terms of a mainstream press.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			So we have to rely on
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:35
			alternative voices now you know and Alhamdulillah as
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37
			soon as he was blessed to be one
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:39
			of those alternative voices. There's so many others
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			and those alternative voices are getting
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:43
			more and more
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:46
			louder and louder and until there's too loud
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			to ignore you know. You know even even
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:48
			in the
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:50
			international court of justice we were saying the
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:52
			other day they're showing clips from
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:56
			outlets like Middle East Eye for example. So
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:56
			alternate
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:00
			media channels
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:01
			that are
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:02
			kind of bypassing
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			the mainstream,
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			media kind of bubble and putting stuff out
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:08
			there directly.
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:10
			Like Chris said the other many people have
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:12
			been saying in this whole genocide Israel has
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:14
			been telling you what's happened
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:16
			with the Palestinians have been showing you what's
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:17
			happening.
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:19
			You know so we have we have a
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			duty to be their voice and to
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:23
			amplify their voice
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:25
			when it comes to these, you know,
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:26
			our
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			our media outlets and so forth. And so
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			media is extremely, extremely important. This is where
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			this is what makes or breaks you know
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:35
			uh-uh
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:38
			state's ability to carry out genocide with impunity
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			you know as has been happening hitherto.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			The the louder and louder we get, we
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:45
			can get to a point where we're too
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:46
			loud to ignore.
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			And that's that's the idea, but we need,
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:51
			you know so I'm saying, Hamza was saying
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:52
			actually,
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:55
			some some,
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			Zionist businessmen got together and they raised, think
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:00
			you said it. They raised, like, 50,000,000
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			in just one kind of fund. Yeah. To,
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:05
			what was that? Tell us about that. Yeah.
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:07
			So that that's an interesting so what people
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:08
			don't realize
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			is that while
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			we scrape together
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:15
			our fundraisers for humanitarian projects and we scrape
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			together our fundraisers for,
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19
			you know, all these different,
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			causes that we're trying to champion.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:25
			We have these different groups. For example, facts
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			for peace. They're a media group
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:28
			based in America.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:30
			And it was started by a multi billionaire,
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:32
			not even millionaire, multi billionaire,
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			guy, and he was actually targeting other Zionist
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:38
			sympathizer billionaires
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:41
			to raise more than 50,000,000 to try and
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:44
			combat the PR battle that Israel is
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:47
			obviously losing by creating more false and counter
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:51
			narratives Mhmm. To to their, you know, to
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:51
			to the
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:52
			the
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			to what you we're seeing, you know, as
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			as it unfolds in front of us. And
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			and this is what people need to realize
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			that,
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			you know,
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			Allah has enabled us. Allah has given us
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:03
			wealth.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:06
			To be honest, the more and more I
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			experience
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:11
			engagements with different charities, different, you know, high
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:13
			net worth individuals. And the more I come
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:15
			to realize the great
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			amount of philanthropy that's taking place in the
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:18
			UK and worldwide.
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			I'm convinced we're not short of funds.
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			It's just sometimes
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			we're not being strategic enough with those funds
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:26
			that we have.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:28
			And, you know,
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:30
			sometimes we hold back on those funds,
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:33
			thinking that
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:35
			ourselves and our families and our priorities. But,
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			you know, Allah says in the Quran,
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44
			all you who believe spent from that which
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			we have given you. And I was having
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			a conversation with my brothers the other day
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:49
			and we were talking about you know we
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:51
			think our lives are are are owned. We
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			think
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			everything we've done, everything we've accumulated is is
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:56
			sometimes as a result of our own
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:59
			successes, our own hard work. But we don't
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:01
			even own our own eyes. We don't own
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			our own mouth. We don't own our our
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:06
			hands, our limbs, and these are things that
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			will testify for or against us.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:12
			Allah's question how we used our body. Allah's
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			gonna take that body back the same way
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			he'll take our soul back and he's gonna
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:16
			ask us
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			how did we live our lives? Or how
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:20
			do we use the blessings of legs and
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:21
			sight and intellect?
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:23
			You know, and the wealth as well that
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:25
			Allah has given us. That's why Allah mentions
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			that all you who believe give from that
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:29
			which we have provided you.
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			Meaning it's not ours. You can't claim ownership
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:32
			over something
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			we were unable to do without Allah's assistance,
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			Allah's help. And Allah then goes on to
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			continue. He says, do that before a day
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:42
			comes, before there's no bargaining, there's no intercession,
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:43
			and there's no help.
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:46
			So Allah's, you know, it's like a Allah's
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:48
			giving us a heads up if you will,
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:49
			that the time
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:52
			and be prepared for it. I'm warning you
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:55
			now, invest, spend in my course. And you
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			know when Allah tells you to do something
		
00:16:58 --> 00:16:59
			or I find I invite you to do
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:02
			something, or if Allah attaches a reward to
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:03
			something, then you know,
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:05
			1 it will please our Lord if we
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:08
			do it. But 2 there's a massive reward.
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11
			Like Allah's Allah's out of his mercy.
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			When Allah tells us to do something it's
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			good for us, right? For our mental,
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			financial,
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:18
			economical,
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:19
			social well-being.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			But it's also rewardable for us as well.
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			So Allah's saying,
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:25
			this is not your money, it's my money.
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:27
			Spending my cause before day comes and you'll
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			be reckoned. Oh, and by the way, do
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:31
			that. Even though it's a command, do it.
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:34
			But, hey, I'm a I'm the rich one.
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			I'll reward you. I'll give you more than
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			you could ever imagine, more than your wildest
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:39
			dreams could ever
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:41
			conceive will be possible. I'll give that to
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			you. I'll return it to you. Come to
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:45
			business with me. So this is how we
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:48
			need to see our world. This is the
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:50
			perspective we should look at, the lens to
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:51
			which we should look at, that we need
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:52
			to see that
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:54
			Islam is more than just ourselves. It's more
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:57
			than just our family. The priority should always
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:57
			be the deen.
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:00
			How do we elevate the deen? How do
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:00
			we do
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:03
			of Allah? How do we glorify Allah?
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:06
			And a lot of time it's by investing
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:07
			and supporting an institutions.
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:11
			Right? That are corners of our pillars of
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:11
			our society
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			that are fighting the battles that we're unable
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			to fight individually and Islam 21 C without
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			a doubt is one of those so these
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:19
			big
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:21
			you know groups we're not aware of them.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:23
			This is only one fact for peace. There's
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			dozens and dozens if not 100 of these.
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:27
			We know the Jewish lobby groups are the
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			largest lobby groups in the world. They're the
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:31
			most well funded in the world. We know
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:32
			that even,
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:35
			in the UK, many of the conservative parties,
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:38
			majority of conservative party members are affiliated with
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:41
			them. They do that to further their aims,
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:43
			their objectives, their careers. You know? So Unfortunately,
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:47
			I think professor David Miller is saying since,
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:49
			like, the forties or fifties, they've they've they've
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			been Zionist. They've been taken over by Zionist
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			Jews,
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:53
			and even non Jews,
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:55
			who are you know pro Zionist. So we
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:56
			have like 2,000
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:58
			Zionist organizations
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:00
			not the lobbies
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			other than outside the lobbies. He said this
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:04
			he, you know, he he and his colleagues
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:05
			did research,
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:08
			at the University of Exeter, I think.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:10
			I've had or Bristol,
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:11
			2,000,
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:15
			you know, different Zionist, groups pushing out a
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:17
			Zionist kind of, interest and so forth. And
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:20
			it's funded. They they're funded. You know? That's
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			what we need to kind of, look at.
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:25
			You know, when you you we're mentioning, Allah
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			everything we belongs to Allah. Emmanuel, Sheikh Haydham
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:29
			said something
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:31
			really kind of hit us hard the other
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:32
			day. He said,
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			basically paraphrasing, he said Allah's
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:38
			more generous than you.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:42
			Don't think, you're going to spend something for
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:43
			the sake of Allah,
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			whether it's your wealth, you know, spend some
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:48
			time maybe, you know, spending an hour, for
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:51
			example, worshiping Allah or spending a few £100,
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:53
			whatever you know for the sake of Allah,
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:56
			don't think that Allah is not gonna pay
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			you back in dustonia.
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			Yeah I don't think he's gonna pay you
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:01
			back the same amount.
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:02
			You
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:04
			know he's gonna increase you
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:07
			many fold in that thing that you actually
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:08
			you
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			know gave up for His sake and also
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:13
			in the barakah and in the productivity
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:15
			your time for example imagine if you spend
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:17
			an hour worshiping Allah or 2 hours in
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:18
			tarawee or whatever.
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			Don't think that that's gonna take away from
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:23
			your productivity in your day.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:25
			That's only going to increase
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:27
			your productivity, it's only going to increase the
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:29
			barakah in your time. It's earning you know
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			that that wealth that you give away for
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			the sake of Allah. You know just just
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:35
			I thought need to just remember that all
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:37
			the time Allah is more generous than us
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:40
			and he's not like counting but he gave
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:43
			£5 I'm going to give him £5 back.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:45
			No. No. And he he owns everything anyway.
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			Because no no depletion. That's a beautiful point.
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			And then, you know, it's not just that
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:53
			obviously when you think about these things you
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:55
			reflect on them and it makes total sense
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			but you're not someone think about
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:01
			when I think about the different topics of
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:03
			Islam. You know, firk, or Hajj,
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			or salah, or, you know, standing for the
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:07
			rights of Muslims.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			In fact, I I think of all these
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:10
			different areas of Islam.
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:14
			When I think of all the narratives, and
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			I always look for these narratives,
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:18
			these motivations, these anecdotes
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			around,
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:22
			around giving, around
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:23
			sacrificing.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:26
			I'm not I I I can't say this.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:28
			I'm not well read enough for this, but
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:30
			I would almost argue that
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:33
			there is more narratives
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:35
			or encouragement
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:38
			or a hadith or I you know,
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:39
			definitely
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:42
			about the the idea of sadaqah and giving
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:44
			and sacrifice, and it is about
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:47
			many, many, many other topics in Islam.
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:49
			And I feel like,
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:51
			you know, the early generations, they understood this
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			so much better than us. You know, like,
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:56
			they they I mean, think about, you know,
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:57
			we I'm sure we all know the the
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:00
			story of Aisha and her when she would
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:00
			give.
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:04
			She would perfume the put perfume on it.
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:06
			Yeah. I mean, that's You know, I remember
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:08
			that when there's a charity shop near my
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:09
			house, and I get so vexed when I
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:10
			see, like, just bin bags
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:13
			strewn across the street right in front of
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:15
			it. And people just like throwing it as
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			rubbish. Remember Aisha
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:17
			she used to
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:20
			cherish on her sadaqah and
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:23
			you know she said because this is going
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:25
			to be accepted in in the right hand
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:25
			of Allah,
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:27
			before he gives it to the poor.
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:31
			Yeah. Yeah. And then it's Don't litter outside
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:32
			charity shops.
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:35
			Yeah. It's true. It's true. I think I've
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:37
			fallen victim to that myself, to be honest.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:40
			At least, you know, slow down the car
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:41
			in it. Yeah.
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			You know, it's someone,
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:47
			further reading on that, narration,
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:49
			Ibn Al Qayyum Rahimullah.
		
00:22:50 --> 00:22:52
			He said something really beautiful. And sometimes it's
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:54
			the simplest things that are most beautiful. He
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:57
			said he said if people knew that the
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:59
			went through the hand of Allah, they would
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:01
			enjoy giving more. They would find, you know,
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:02
			comfort, joy,
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:05
			you know, they they would enjoy the the
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:07
			notion, the idea that
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			they have a direct connection with Allah
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			in the sense that they give something, it
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			goes through the hands of Allah and then
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:15
			it goes on to the needy person. It's
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:17
			a deep point, you know, very, very deep.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:18
			And I think
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			so, however, they understood this, that Habibi, they
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:21
			understood this.
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			Alimani understand this very well. Even when Alimani
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:25
			would give
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:28
			sadaqa, they would they would physically put their
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:30
			hands beneath the person receiving it to demonstrate
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:32
			that they, the person giving that sadaqa
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35
			are way more in need of of giving
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:37
			it than the person is receiving it. It's
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:39
			like I think said once, you know, you
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:41
			might be fixing it, but they're fixing your.
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:44
			So just a little encouragement brothers and sisters.
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:46
			I think, yeah, might have said it but
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:48
			Imam Shaffer, you said it before him. Oh,
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:49
			did he? Did he?
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:53
			No disrespect to Mufti Islam.
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:55
			Of course, of course. I didn't know that.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:56
			So
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:59
			brothers and sisters look. Islam 21 c, we
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:02
			are your organization. We're established to fight
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:03
			your rights,
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:04
			fight for your
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07
			your your belief, your identity.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:08
			We're
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:09
			Sorry. Let me ask you a question. Sorry
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:13
			to interrupt. Yeah. You you you you've you've
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:15
			been in the charity sector for donkey's years.
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:18
			You do kind of financial fundraising all the
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:18
			time.
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:21
			It's harder to fundraise something like some of
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			the season it because
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:25
			what you explained, it's easy when you can
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:26
			see a direct
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:30
			kind of, you know, hungry person, and we
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:31
			must obviously feed that person.
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:34
			Somebody who's, you know, in an acute
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			distress, we have to have to have to,
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:41
			you know, alleviate that distress. But the problem
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			is
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:45
			the proactive things that require long term institution
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:48
			building, they're much harder to
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:50
			fundraise for,
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:52
			wouldn't you say? Because you've been trying to
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:53
			do fundraising for some sort of many years
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:55
			as well. Yeah. I I
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			there's a bit of a conundrum.
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:01
			Yeah. It's it's really it's really difficult to
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:02
			to navigate around this topic.
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:05
			And I say that because I I'm trying
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:06
			to do it so much, but
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:09
			but it it sometimes it feels like an
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:10
			uphill struggle if I'm being honest.
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:12
			And the conundrum is that
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:15
			it's very hard when you see a suffering
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:16
			person.
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:19
			It's very hard when you see someone starving,
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:20
			and you
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:23
			you get those emotions straight away. You're connected.
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:25
			You feel the pain. You feel the grief,
		
00:25:25 --> 00:25:28
			and you feel compelled to give. And so
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:30
			you should. Yeah. And do give. No one's
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:33
			saying don't give. Right? It's important. It's a
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:35
			it's it's the most basic human emotion
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:38
			that when you see someone suffering, you want
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:39
			to do something about it.
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:42
			But I would say that
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:45
			there's a disproportionate
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:47
			representation
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:50
			amongst the organizations
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:52
			that we see in the UK and worldwide
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:54
			When it comes to humanitarianism
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:58
			and the work that is building
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:02
			and and and fixing the the long term
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:04
			solutions that have probably created some of these
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:05
			things.
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:08
			We've got a donation that's just come through.
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:10
			We've, we we've been we've been we got
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:12
			locked in a conversation. I forgot to
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:16
			actually remind people how to donate but they
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:18
			they they they're donating. We're getting, messages.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:21
			And from that, we have a donation from,
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:22
			Hani Radi.
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:24
			Radi. Donated.
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			Abu Bakr. Let's just donated.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:29
			Okay. Fantastic.
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:31
			Okay. So let's just jump
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:33
			as anyone.
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:35
			So, we're gonna be going to some conversations.
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:37
			We'll continue our point in a second, but
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:38
			it's really, really important to mention
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:41
			that as well as these, you know, the
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:43
			the these moments that we have in between
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:43
			your
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:45
			and your prayers.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:48
			You know, we have to also utilize some
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			of the time that we have to serve
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:52
			the Ummah and not just make this Ibada
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:52
			for ourselves.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:53
			Okay?
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			Prophet was willing to give up his own
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:57
			to walk with his brother in his time
		
00:26:57 --> 00:26:59
			of need and help and support him and
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:01
			we also should be willing to make sure
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:03
			that our nights don't pass and we've just
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:03
			benefited
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:06
			ourselves, you know? This is
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:09
			this is a it's this is a calamity
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			in of itself brothers and sisters that if
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:12
			if we haven't taken time out to serve
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:14
			the Ummah, the prophet Muhammad said the best
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:16
			to you those will bring the most benefit
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:16
			to mankind.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:19
			And whatever you do tonight, it's better than
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:21
			a 1000 months, it's better than
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:24
			83 years, and it's better than
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:24
			30000.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:26
			I think 30,295
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			days.
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:30
			Whatever you whatever you Could be if it
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:31
			if it's laser cutter.
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34
			Let's assume it is. Why wouldn't you assume
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			it is? Right? Because you have to search
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:37
			for it. Yeah. And and and, you know,
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:39
			we treat each night as if it is.
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:39
			So
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			let let's act like that brothers and sisters.
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:43
			Let's let's assume it is and look for
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			it. And when the next one comes, you
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:47
			do the same all over again. So look
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:49
			we're here tonight inshallah. We want you to
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:50
			donate. Go to Islam 21c.comforward/live.
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			You can call us in. Make a pledge.
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:56
			Maybe you're gonna raise that money number down,
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:57
			or maybe you'd like to tell us what
		
00:27:57 --> 00:27:57
			you're gonna donate.
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:00
			So the number to call here is o
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:02
			I've got 2 numbers here. I've got 0203-880
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:05
			2981.
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			I've also got 077-694-3414.
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:14
			Yep. So the first number is to donate,
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:16
			And the second number I believe is to
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:17
			give us a call if you wanna have
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:20
			a chat coming through to the studio so
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:21
			to speak. That's it. And what we're looking
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:23
			for tonight, brother, is we are looking for
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:25
			50 people to give £100.
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:27
			We get you 50 people,
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:29
			our jobs done tonight, then we can just
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:30
			enjoy the conversation,
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:32
			have some chat and chat, but it shall
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:33
			it would benefit
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:37
			talking about how we can strategize and and
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:39
			make the the world more
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:42
			more beneficial for the Muslims. So we mentioned
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			strategy. Let's go back. Oh, we got another
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:46
			we got another donation. I'll tell you what,
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:47
			let's get the top tier started, someone. Let's
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:48
			get the top tier.
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:52
			Beard.
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:56
			Donated.
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:59
			One of the brothers who gave £100
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:01
			increase you all in your wealth
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:03
			and, accept it.
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:05
			I'll tell you what, let's get we've got,
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:06
			our brother in
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:07
			the background.
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:11
			Tarek, keep us updated, please, with a tally.
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:13
			We would like to know how many of
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:15
			those 100 we've got coming in, how many
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			of those fifties we've got coming in. Right?
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:20
			So we got Haniradi. We got Abu Bakr,
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:22
			Baban. We got Faisal Hayat.
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:24
			Keep them coming, brother. Share with your family.
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:25
			Share with your friends.
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:26
			Please,
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:29
			you know, you've done your bit and maybe
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			we can multiply those rewards by getting some
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:32
			other brothers and friends and families to do
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:33
			the same.
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:34
			Yeah.
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:37
			And also let us know in the comments.
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:39
			One thing I forgot to do was actually,
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:42
			ask the brothers and sisters watching if you
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:43
			can actually hear us.
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:45
			That is good. Should've done that right at
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:47
			the beginning, but let us know you can
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:49
			hear us. Hopefully, you can hear us. Well,
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:50
			we need we need someone to we need
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:52
			someone to write. Yeah. We I don't think
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			we've had any comments yet. Have we?
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:56
			Yeah. It says on the thing, there's,
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:59
			almost a 100 people watching live across different
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:02
			platforms. Fantastic. So, let's let's see if you,
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:03
			if you're real people.
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:06
			Or are they bots? We're gonna we're gonna
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:07
			talk about bots a little bit later. Remind
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:08
			me, someone.
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:11
			Alohaqbar. Naheed Shah donated £500.
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:16
			Hey. We got some I love the confetti.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:18
			We've got a, like, little,
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:20
			dopamine hijacking,
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:23
			loop compulsion loop here. Little,
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:26
			little, what do you call it? Graphic or
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:29
			GIF or something whenever you, whenever someone donates.
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:30
			It's not a GIF. It's a GIF. Come
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:32
			on, someone. I say GIF, bro. Come Why
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:33
			Because of giraffes.
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:37
			Who says GIF? Yeah. Come on, man. Don't
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:39
			call. It's because you're on GIF Gaff, bro.
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:41
			You made it in last week to get
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:43
			to a normal 02 and 02 is not
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:45
			doing me justice. Anyway, let's not promote other
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:46
			brands, we're here to promote
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:48
			San Antonio with C in the work. Simone,
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:50
			you asked me a question just a minute
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:50
			ago,
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:54
			about how it's harder to sell an organization
		
00:30:54 --> 00:30:56
			or get people to buy into slump 21
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:58
			c. Like I mentioned, it is a conundrum.
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:00
			It's easy for us to stand here and
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:02
			hold pictures of babies that are starving.
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:04
			And I think I think if I'm being
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:05
			honest, I think
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:08
			Shaytan has tricked us a little bit.
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:10
			Right? I mentioned to my son the other
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:12
			day while we're driving around, I said Shaytan,
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:14
			it was, you know, Iblis, there's not a
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:15
			place that he didn't do such on the
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:17
			earth. He's been around, he knows the tricks.
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			He knows how to, you know,
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:21
			make us do things that necessarily
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:24
			are good and praiseworthy, but at the cost
		
00:31:24 --> 00:31:25
			of doing other things that we should be
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:27
			doing that are greater reward.
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:29
			And I I I think the issue is
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:31
			not that we give so much of our
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:32
			money to humanitarian
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:32
			causes.
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:35
			They are there are needs, and there are
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:38
			massive, massive immense rewards for honoring,
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:40
			our brothers and sisters, for helping them, for
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:43
			supporting them. But the challenge is that we've
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:43
			neglected
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:47
			the strategic moves that we need to make
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:49
			in supporting other institutions
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:51
			and the pillars of society
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:53
			that will actually further aim,
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:55
			further aim to develop
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:57
			our communities.
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:59
			Mhmm. I was at a fundraiser tonight.
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:00
			I went to Kingston,
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:04
			great youth organization called Kingston Muslim Youth. You
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:06
			know the brother used to be involved in
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:08
			Used to be our news editor for like
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:10
			5 years, inshallah. That's right. And he's doing
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:12
			amazing work, Masha'Allah. You know, they've got a
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:14
			great youth center down there. And they're they're
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:15
			literally,
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:18
			you know, making real impact. And I said
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:20
			to the community there, I said brothers, sisters,
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:22
			if I was to stand here and show
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:25
			you a a dying starving baby, you'd all
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:27
			give. I said, what we're looking for you
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:28
			to do tonight is we're asking you to
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:29
			invest in this organization
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:31
			so we can build the leaders.
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:35
			Okay? And the change makers
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:36
			that will
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:37
			create
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:40
			social change within the fabric of our society
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:41
			Mhmm. Will
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:42
			strategically
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:45
			solve some of these problems long term. Why
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:47
			is it that when we look across the
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:50
			world, we see that the largest
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:52
			populous of refugees in the world are predominantly
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:53
			from Muslim countries.
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:57
			Think about all of the major man made
		
00:32:57 --> 00:32:59
			catastrophes in the last 10 years.
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:01
			Look at Syria. Look at Yemen. Look at
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:02
			the Rohingya Muslims.
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:04
			Look at the the the Uighurs.
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:07
			Look at Gaza. Okay? The Iraq war, you
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:09
			know, set off a illegal war, set off
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:11
			a chain of events that led to the
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:12
			probably the biggest humanitarian,
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:15
			refugee crisis
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:18
			ongoing refugee crisis in modern history. Yeah. And
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:20
			it it can't I mean, yes, there's the
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:23
			there's Russia and Ukraine situation going on. Of
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:25
			course. And all of those things, they're built
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:27
			upon discourse and narratives.
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:31
			Right? That's how these these policies, these wars,
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:33
			these genocides are sold to,
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:34
			people.
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:35
			Yeah.
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:38
			And and given cover given narrative cover.
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:41
			You know, one thing I wanna mention, right,
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:43
			so we understand the gravity because someone touched
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:45
			on a point. If we could summarize or
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:47
			if I could summarize what I think we're
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			doing tonight, I think that we're dealing with
		
00:33:49 --> 00:33:51
			the the battle of ideological,
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:52
			values.
		
00:33:53 --> 00:33:53
			Okay?
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:56
			There there's a ideological war taking place every
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:58
			single day. It's in our schools. It's in
		
00:33:58 --> 00:33:59
			our classrooms. It's in universities.
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:02
			It's in our homes. It's on the ipads.
		
00:34:02 --> 00:34:03
			It's on the phones. It's in workplaces.
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:06
			It's everywhere you go and these ideological battles
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:10
			they're pushing secularism, liberalism, LGBT agendas.
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:11
			They're pushing transgenderism,
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:12
			fornication,
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:15
			the breakdown of the family unit.
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:17
			All of these things that
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:20
			we'll tolerate as a community
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:22
			if other people practice them, but we will
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:24
			not allow them to infringe on our values
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:26
			and what we believe as Muslims.
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:30
			And the issue is that these things have
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:32
			been broken down even through media, through
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:35
			through, you know, sitcoms and stuff like that,
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:36
			adverts, TV shows.
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:39
			And it is it is slowly slowly breaking
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:41
			down the very fabric of our
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:43
			society and our Muslim identity.
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:47
			Islam It's it's funny that you mentioned that
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:49
			because the some of the campaigns that we
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:52
			have the initiation documents when the planning's,
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:53
			gone into for,
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:56
			just about that. We have the guarding innocence
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:57
			about
		
00:34:58 --> 00:35:01
			sexualization of children in schools and and and
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:02
			indoctrination of certain,
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:03
			ideologies.
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:05
			We have,
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:07
			a really, really important
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:10
			campaign that's close to my heart, power of
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:12
			a Muslim woman. You know, a group not
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:14
			because I'm a Muslim identify as a Muslim
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:14
			woman, but because
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:17
			A powerful Muslim woman. Yeah. The it's the
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:19
			it's it's,
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:21
			what can I say? It's a group of
		
00:35:21 --> 00:35:24
			sisters that have been through our Tarbia programs
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:27
			in Sabeel and Sahab 6 6 years. They've
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			been, you know, delivering
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:31
			stuff in the local communities, talking to sisters
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:33
			on the ground, learning about their issues.
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:34
			And,
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:38
			they're doing a campaign through a sign 20
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:39
			OC with high quality
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:42
			media assets, you know, regular podcasts,
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:44
			articles, and new websites have been,
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:47
			designed in the in the testing stages. And
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:48
			SubhanAllah,
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:51
			It's actually from the perspective of a confident
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:52
			Muslim
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:56
			women or of confident Muslim women not pandering
		
00:35:56 --> 00:35:56
			to
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:00
			obviously kind of liberalism and feminism and so
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:01
			forth but at the same time
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:03
			not a blind reaction
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:05
			to secularism liberalism
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:07
			Right? Because when a community
		
00:36:08 --> 00:36:09
			feels weak
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:10
			and embattled and,
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12
			beleaguered,
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:15
			There's a there's a tendency to just
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:17
			still
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:20
			use the oppressor or use the
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:21
			dominant narrative
		
00:36:21 --> 00:36:23
			as your yardstick and just do be anything
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:25
			anti that. You know this is what the
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:27
			liberals are saying we're going to be anti
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:28
			liberal. This is what the feminists say we're
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:29
			going to be anti feminist
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:33
			but it it what assumption tries to do
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:36
			is to create something based on our own
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:38
			standpoint, our own Islamic
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:41
			epistemology, our own values, our own metaphysics, our
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:41
			own,
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:43
			ethics and morality
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:46
			from the Quran, sunnah, from the the the
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:47
			heritage
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:49
			of our Ummah for the last 1400 years
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:51
			to make something generally from our,
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			perspective. And those things are are re most
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:57
			campaigns in particular, I'm really excited about.
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:00
			Those his sister are doing great work. And
		
00:37:00 --> 00:37:03
			obviously, you know, he's been pivotal in the
		
00:37:03 --> 00:37:05
			guarding innocence campaign, none other than none other
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:06
			than our brother Youssef Patel,
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:09
			of the
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:11
			formerly known as SRE Islamic,
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:15
			rebounded to the Muslim family institute I think.
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:19
			So, excellent brother and, you know, we work
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:20
			together to build,
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:22
			that thing as well. So it's not just
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:24
			one man show, but, you know, with all
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:26
			of our resources and all of our,
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:28
			masha'a and expertise kind of,
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:31
			going towards those issues as well. So we
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:32
			have a another donation,
		
00:37:34 --> 00:37:34
			donated
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:35
			a £100.
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:48
			Some on? Don't be stingy with these things.
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			That's it. We like to We we have
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:52
			to be careful not to allow any haduk
		
00:37:52 --> 00:37:54
			in inflation as well. So I have to
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:56
			I have to balance these different Okay.
		
00:37:58 --> 00:37:59
			Well, look. We got lots of viewers. Okay,
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:01
			They're pretty interested to see
		
00:38:02 --> 00:38:03
			what kind of sounds and effects we can
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:04
			give them, but we have to entice them.
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:07
			Can we give them a little, a little
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:08
			demo, please? What else have we got on
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:09
			this,
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:10
			someone?
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:15
			Smart, our services. I'll use that on me.
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:17
			I'll feel emasculated if you do that.
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:20
			Does that does that bring up the
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:23
			I feel like there's something missing in the
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:24
			test. Test run.
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:27
			What else?
		
00:38:33 --> 00:38:35
			You don't hear that a lot. I feel
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:36
			like I'm good.
		
00:38:36 --> 00:38:38
			Forget like, us for Dean. She has for
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:38
			Dean on the,
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:41
			can we call him up just to do
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			that sound?
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43
			Can you do that?
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:45
			Hey, Asif.
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:48
			What's ET short for? Because you got small
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:49
			legs.
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:53
			Alright, brothers and sisters.
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:55
			Let's get some of those. I tell you
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:56
			what, let's get someone. We need some callers.
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:57
			We have to be careful. We have to
		
00:38:57 --> 00:38:59
			be it could be a little cutler. You
		
00:38:59 --> 00:38:59
			don't wanna
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:02
			have a joke that's, you know, multiplied
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:04
			a bad joke that's multiplied over a 1000
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:08
			months. Better protect us. Better protect us. Right.
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:09
			I I think it's time to get someone
		
00:39:09 --> 00:39:11
			in, in the studio. We need someone to
		
00:39:11 --> 00:39:14
			call in. So Asen, Nahid, Faisal, Abu Bakr,
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:15
			Hani,
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:17
			which is a couple of others there as
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:18
			well. We need one of you
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:21
			to call us in. Share with us why
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:22
			you've donated
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:25
			and inspire others Insha'Allah. Okay. Don't be shy.
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:29
			Okay. This imagine brothers, sisters watching out there,
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:31
			your call, because me and Saman, we're just,
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:33
			hopefully, we're saying stuff of quality.
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:36
			But it could be that, you know, we're
		
00:39:36 --> 00:39:37
			here to to
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:39
			inspire, present,
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:42
			motivate you. But we're we're here to do
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:43
			that, so we're expected to be able to
		
00:39:43 --> 00:39:45
			do that. But we wanna hear from you,
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:48
			the supporters. Why do you believe? I mean,
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:48
			look, we've got
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:50
			Nahid gave £500.
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:51
			That's,
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:53
			you know, I mean, maybe that's easy for
		
00:39:53 --> 00:39:55
			him. Maybe he's Allah's blessing with wealth. I
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:57
			believe Nahid is his sister.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:58
			Is that apologies.
		
00:39:59 --> 00:40:01
			Nahid. I just assume her gender.
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:04
			Right. But may maybe maybe sister Nahid
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:06
			has I think I think it is. If
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:07
			it's Nahid I'm thinking of,
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:10
			If it's not if your brother called Nahid
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:11
			sorry, bro.
		
00:40:12 --> 00:40:15
			That's not is. Yeah. I I think what's
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:16
			important is the hearts. We're looking at the
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:18
			hearts of people. May Allah bless you all.
		
00:40:18 --> 00:40:19
			Okay?
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:21
			So ex excuse our ignorance if we don't
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:23
			know all the names that are out there.
		
00:40:23 --> 00:40:25
			But the point is the point is for
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:27
			some people that 500 is easy for someone's
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:29
			hard. But either way to pick up the
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:31
			phone or to go online and make that
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:31
			donation.
		
00:40:32 --> 00:40:33
			You know Allah's bless you. You've been guided
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:34
			to us some goodness.
		
00:40:35 --> 00:40:36
			Give us a call and tell us why
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:38
			why did you do it? Okay? There's many
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:38
			organizations.
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:40
			Look at your phones tonight, brothers and sisters.
		
00:40:40 --> 00:40:42
			How many messages have you got from different
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:43
			organizations?
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:45
			You know, say, oh, it's an odd night.
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:46
			Give to this project, that project.
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:49
			What motivated you inspired to give to this
		
00:40:49 --> 00:40:51
			one? So call in 077-694-33414.
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:55
			If you wanna donate straight away, just go
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:56
			to 0203-880-2981.
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:01
			And of course, the easiest probably for many
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:02
			of you is Islam 21c.comforward/life.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:06
			This is like the situation at Tesco's where
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:07
			it's like,
		
00:41:07 --> 00:41:09
			do I go to the lady who's serving
		
00:41:09 --> 00:41:11
			me or do I go to the, self-service
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:13
			tool? Right? If I go to the self-service,
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:15
			right, with with Londoners especially,
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:17
			they just they don't wanna engage with you,
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:19
			you know? Up north, they're like,
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:21
			no, Northern is I love Northern is they
		
00:41:21 --> 00:41:22
			just want a bit of banter sometimes, you
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:23
			know?
		
00:41:23 --> 00:41:25
			Not tonight, though. It's a lot like focus
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:26
			problems.
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:29
			But, oh, Mohammed Musa has given £50.
		
00:41:32 --> 00:41:34
			We need to get a duck beard kind
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:36
			of sound effect. Yeah. I'm really ashamed that
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:38
			I don't have one. Sakkra, all these all
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:41
			these video ones you got. That's from the
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:42
			that's from COVID podcast.
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:44
			Probably like a
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:46
			or something like that. The most let me
		
00:41:46 --> 00:41:47
			those No. I'm gonna work,
		
00:41:48 --> 00:41:49
			on getting acquiring such
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:52
			in the background. Yes, please. In the meantime,
		
00:41:53 --> 00:41:55
			you, you speak to the people. So Are
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:57
			you doing it now? Have someone donate.
		
00:41:57 --> 00:41:58
			We'll get a nice
		
00:42:00 --> 00:42:02
			Right. So brothers and sisters, we are here
		
00:42:02 --> 00:42:02
			tonight.
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:03
			Islam
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:06
			21 c is inviting you
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:07
			to fight
		
00:42:08 --> 00:42:10
			the battle with us. This is a digital
		
00:42:10 --> 00:42:11
			war that's taking place online.
		
00:42:12 --> 00:42:14
			We are up against it. Organizations,
		
00:42:14 --> 00:42:15
			media organizations
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:19
			out there are spending 1,000,000. They're spending 1,000,000,000.
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:20
			Let me give an example.
		
00:42:20 --> 00:42:22
			We're talking about
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:25
			the rights of the Palestinians tonight. We've we're
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:28
			launching this campaign, Palestine truth, where you get
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:30
			to understand what's really going on behind the
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:32
			scenes. We try to inspire, empower you with
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:34
			the reality on the ground. But let me
		
00:42:34 --> 00:42:36
			give an example of what we're up against.
		
00:42:37 --> 00:42:38
			After the onslaught
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:41
			that came after the 7th October,
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:44
			we found that the
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:45
			media coverage
		
00:42:45 --> 00:42:47
			on social media was showing what was really
		
00:42:47 --> 00:42:49
			going on on the ground.
		
00:42:49 --> 00:42:50
			Right?
		
00:42:50 --> 00:42:52
			And as a result of the losing,
		
00:42:54 --> 00:42:54
			the losing,
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:58
			what we call it, campaign. Right? The the
		
00:42:58 --> 00:42:59
			PR campaign
		
00:43:00 --> 00:43:00
			of
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:03
			Israel and the the government there as well
		
00:43:03 --> 00:43:05
			as the IDF, they were so worried about
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:05
			the,
		
00:43:06 --> 00:43:08
			you know, losing public opinion
		
00:43:08 --> 00:43:11
			that the Israeli government actually spent £7,100,000,000.
		
00:43:13 --> 00:43:14
			Where did they spend it? Was it on
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:18
			billboards and Facebook and YouTube and print media
		
00:43:18 --> 00:43:19
			across multifaceted
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:20
			media campaigns?
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:23
			No. That 7,100,000,000
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:25
			was only spent
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:27
			on YouTube ads.
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:30
			Anyone in the digital marketing industry or even
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:32
			just some insights into social media know that
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:35
			to put that much money into one focused
		
00:43:35 --> 00:43:37
			effort is gonna yield a massive impact.
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:39
			So that 7,100,000
		
00:43:41 --> 00:43:43
			YouTube ads, that's translated into
		
00:43:43 --> 00:43:44
			nearly 1,000,000,000
		
00:43:44 --> 00:43:45
			video impressions.
		
00:43:46 --> 00:43:49
			Right? Imagine the the graphic images, the videos
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:51
			they're showing people, trying to show themselves
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:54
			as the victim. And by the way, never
		
00:43:54 --> 00:43:56
			in the history of any occupation
		
00:43:56 --> 00:43:57
			has the occupier
		
00:43:58 --> 00:44:00
			claimed to be the victim, yet they're doing
		
00:44:00 --> 00:44:02
			it. And this is how much they're spending
		
00:44:02 --> 00:44:03
			try to spew
		
00:44:03 --> 00:44:04
			their false narrative.
		
00:44:05 --> 00:44:06
			So this is what we're up against, brothers
		
00:44:06 --> 00:44:07
			and sisters.
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:10
			Islam 21 c is fighting and battling that
		
00:44:10 --> 00:44:12
			narrative, and it takes money, it takes investment.
		
00:44:12 --> 00:44:13
			What we're up against is monumental.
		
00:44:14 --> 00:44:15
			However,
		
00:44:16 --> 00:44:16
			right,
		
00:44:17 --> 00:44:18
			we can do it
		
00:44:18 --> 00:44:20
			And as as great as difficult as it
		
00:44:20 --> 00:44:23
			seems, I wanna remind you brothers and sisters
		
00:44:23 --> 00:44:24
			of the story
		
00:44:25 --> 00:44:28
			of David and Goliath. Right? Dawud and Jalut.
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:30
			So picture this.
		
00:44:31 --> 00:44:33
			Right? Dawud Alaihi Salam, he's not even a
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:35
			prophet yet. Okay? He's a young man. He's
		
00:44:35 --> 00:44:37
			still growing. He's not known to be a
		
00:44:37 --> 00:44:39
			large man in stature either physically. He doesn't
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:41
			he's got a massive physical presence.
		
00:44:42 --> 00:44:45
			He hasn't been bestow with knowledge of prophethood
		
00:44:45 --> 00:44:46
			or the wisdom of prophethood.
		
00:44:47 --> 00:44:49
			So he is an average man at the
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:50
			time.
		
00:44:50 --> 00:44:53
			And he is with his king. And the
		
00:44:53 --> 00:44:54
			king, Talut,
		
00:44:54 --> 00:44:56
			has got all of his army in front
		
00:44:56 --> 00:44:57
			of him.
		
00:44:57 --> 00:44:59
			That would be part of the army, and
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:00
			they are opposing
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:02
			they're about to go into battle with the
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:02
			opposition.
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:05
			And who is sent forward from the opposition?
		
00:45:05 --> 00:45:08
			None other than Goliath. Jalut is sent forward.
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:11
			So Jalut is sent forward and Talut, the
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:13
			king says to his soldiers, says to his
		
00:45:13 --> 00:45:15
			people, a very small amount of people it
		
00:45:15 --> 00:45:17
			was. It's also narrated as 313
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:19
			of them, similar to.
		
00:45:19 --> 00:45:21
			And Talut says to his men, he says,
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:23
			who will come forward and and fight this
		
00:45:23 --> 00:45:24
			Goliath?
		
00:45:25 --> 00:45:27
			So they're all looking around, waiting who's gonna
		
00:45:27 --> 00:45:29
			step forward and, you know, was it the
		
00:45:29 --> 00:45:31
			biggest one that stepped forward? No.
		
00:45:31 --> 00:45:32
			Was it the most,
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:33
			you know,
		
00:45:34 --> 00:45:36
			tough and hardy one of them to step
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:38
			forward? No. It wasn't. Who was it that
		
00:45:38 --> 00:45:40
			stepped forward? None other than
		
00:45:42 --> 00:45:44
			Picture the scene, brothers and sisters.
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:47
			Right? Faced against this monstrosity,
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:49
			this Goliath
		
00:45:50 --> 00:45:52
			of an enemy in front of them. He
		
00:45:52 --> 00:45:55
			must have been scared, worried, you know, how
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:56
			can I do this? But he didn't back
		
00:45:56 --> 00:45:58
			down, brothers and sisters. Sisters. He knew there
		
00:45:58 --> 00:46:00
			was a massive challenge ahead of him. He
		
00:46:00 --> 00:46:01
			put his trust in Allah.
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:03
			He grabs his slingshot,
		
00:46:03 --> 00:46:05
			stone in it, and he starts to spin
		
00:46:05 --> 00:46:06
			that slingshot.
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:10
			And with 1 mighty pelt he he flings
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:10
			that slingshot
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:13
			and that stone is penetrating through the air
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:15
			and with 1 almighty
		
00:46:16 --> 00:46:17
			knock it hits Goliath.
		
00:46:18 --> 00:46:20
			It hits Goliath on his head, and in
		
00:46:20 --> 00:46:21
			an unimaginable
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:22
			spectacle,
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:26
			Goliath drops to the floor, and is victorious.
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:28
			A victory that no one ever expected.
		
00:46:29 --> 00:46:30
			A victory that no one ever thought would
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:31
			come.
		
00:46:32 --> 00:46:34
			This is the same as today, brothers and
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:36
			sisters. We may be up against the media
		
00:46:37 --> 00:46:40
			giants of the world, these global multinational institutions.
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:44
			And Islam 21 c may seem like
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:46
			it's not capable of defeating this giant. But
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:47
			brothers and sisters,
		
00:46:48 --> 00:46:51
			we are one of the important cogs. We
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			are one of the important links in the
		
00:46:52 --> 00:46:55
			chain that will be the chain that pulls
		
00:46:55 --> 00:46:56
			victory forward.
		
00:46:56 --> 00:46:58
			And we have to act. We have to
		
00:46:58 --> 00:46:59
			step forward
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:01
			to bring about this change, to bring about
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:04
			this victory because it could be from one
		
00:47:04 --> 00:47:06
			campaign. It could be from one article
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:09
			that might change a community, change an individual
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:11
			who will bring about real change in the
		
00:47:11 --> 00:47:12
			future. So never
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:13
			never underestimate
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:15
			the impact. Never underestimate the value
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:17
			that your intention that your
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:20
			your donation that your support can have
		
00:47:20 --> 00:47:22
			and tonight is just like that. So
		
00:47:23 --> 00:47:23
			to
		
00:47:24 --> 00:47:24
			Asmara,
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:28
			which just donated £10
		
00:47:29 --> 00:47:31
			Do we have a nadir takabeer ready for
		
00:47:31 --> 00:47:33
			that? We do indeed. Are you ready? I'm
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:34
			ready. Let's
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:39
			go.
		
00:47:40 --> 00:47:42
			That is not what I was after.
		
00:47:43 --> 00:47:45
			Oh my god. Let's make that the first
		
00:47:45 --> 00:47:47
			and last time we do that, mister Mark.
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:50
			Oh my god. Oh my god. Is there
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:52
			anything I could find, bro? That didn't have
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:55
			any, I I apologize. Channel closing connotations in
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:56
			the background.
		
00:47:57 --> 00:47:58
			How about what about the the,
		
00:48:00 --> 00:48:02
			what's that? What do you think, brother and
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:03
			sister? Do do do you like that?
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:07
			I know they can hear us. That's why
		
00:48:07 --> 00:48:08
			I'm smiling in the background. What are you
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:10
			talking? You're giving us a kind of a
		
00:48:10 --> 00:48:10
			serious
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:13
			lesson and I was figuring away.
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:16
			Okay. I tell you what, let's, let's get,
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:18
			let's get Masha'Allah, brava. Let's get that one
		
00:48:18 --> 00:48:21
			from the place. Nice. Masha'Allah. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:22
			Exactly.
		
00:48:22 --> 00:48:23
			To Asmara
		
00:48:23 --> 00:48:24
			Nazid. Masha'Allah.
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:26
			I really, really appreciate
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:29
			any any donation, any new house. Remember the
		
00:48:29 --> 00:48:29
			prophet said,
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:32
			Sabaqa Dhirhami Ata Alf. 1 dirham
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:34
			beat a 100,000.
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:36
			You know? I know you as a Tarak
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:37
			as a fundraiser, you know which one you'd
		
00:48:37 --> 00:48:39
			like. When it comes to the barakah, when
		
00:48:39 --> 00:48:41
			it comes to the how beloved is to
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:41
			Allah
		
00:48:43 --> 00:48:45
			you know, a person who has 2 dirhams
		
00:48:45 --> 00:48:47
			giving giving away 1 is more beloved to
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:49
			Allah than a millionaire grabbing a 100,000 giving
		
00:48:49 --> 00:48:51
			that away as a prophet
		
00:48:51 --> 00:48:54
			said. So that is, that's what it's all
		
00:48:54 --> 00:48:56
			about because it all belongs to Allah anyway.
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:58
			You know? And, we're really really I'm really
		
00:48:58 --> 00:48:59
			appreciative of anyone.
		
00:49:01 --> 00:49:04
			I'm always it's always heartening to see that
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:04
			people,
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:06
			you know, they they they value the work
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:08
			of San Francisco and it's humbling,
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:10
			Spana. We have another one. Abdul
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:12
			Salim.
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:14
			Donated £50.
		
00:49:15 --> 00:49:16
			You ready?
		
00:49:16 --> 00:49:17
			Don't do it.
		
00:49:23 --> 00:49:25
			Okay. I'm gonna find the mushroom, brother.
		
00:49:27 --> 00:49:29
			You do that. Brothers and sisters,
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:31
			I would never normally be eating on a
		
00:49:31 --> 00:49:33
			live appeal, but I feel that Ramadan is
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:33
			justified.
		
00:49:34 --> 00:49:35
			Right? I can have a little snack. Is
		
00:49:35 --> 00:49:37
			that okay, someone? Can I have a little
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:39
			snack? How could I stay mad at you?
		
00:49:40 --> 00:49:41
			May I bless you, bro? I'm having dark
		
00:49:41 --> 00:49:42
			chocolate. I'm keeping it healthy.
		
00:49:43 --> 00:49:44
			Good for your heart.
		
00:49:44 --> 00:49:48
			90 90% of of that. Maybe it's not
		
00:49:48 --> 00:49:49
			as bad for your heart.
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:51
			Maybe not. Maybe not. Inshallah. So look, brothers
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:53
			and sisters, we're gonna have,
		
00:49:53 --> 00:49:54
			doctor Sheikh
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:56
			well, Sajid Umit, inshallah, is gonna be joining
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:58
			us very soon, inshallah.
		
00:49:58 --> 00:50:00
			And And he's gonna be talking about some
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:01
			important topics, which we'd love for you to
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:02
			benefit from.
		
00:50:03 --> 00:50:04
			But in the meantime, we need to get
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:06
			a call in the in the studio.
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:08
			Call us now. 07769-433-3414.
		
00:50:10 --> 00:50:11
			The lines are empty.
		
00:50:12 --> 00:50:14
			Right? So we have options.
		
00:50:14 --> 00:50:16
			What we want you to support
		
00:50:17 --> 00:50:19
			Islam 21 C tonight Inshallah. What could we
		
00:50:19 --> 00:50:20
			lay it to other?
		
00:50:20 --> 00:50:22
			It's a point to remember the prophecy was
		
00:50:22 --> 00:50:24
			described as Ramadan will come, he would give
		
00:50:24 --> 00:50:25
			like the wind
		
00:50:26 --> 00:50:28
			that's constantly blowing constantly giving
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:29
			in the same way.
		
00:50:30 --> 00:50:32
			Actually, I remember someone explaining this to me.
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:34
			They said, the reason why, it's an interesting
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:36
			analogy about the wind because the wind is
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:38
			when the wind blows,
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:41
			it's bringing so much with it. It's bringing,
		
00:50:41 --> 00:50:43
			you know, it's it's it's,
		
00:50:43 --> 00:50:45
			it's bringing a lot of
		
00:50:47 --> 00:50:48
			what is the wind does? Someone help me
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:49
			out here. I'm trying to remember the wind.
		
00:50:49 --> 00:50:51
			It it it has a lot of effect
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:52
			environmentally and,
		
00:50:52 --> 00:50:54
			on the on the agriculture.
		
00:50:55 --> 00:50:58
			Yeah. Disperses seeds. There you go. Disperses seeds.
		
00:50:58 --> 00:50:59
			What else does it do?
		
00:50:59 --> 00:51:01
			It, it's it's indiscriminate.
		
00:51:03 --> 00:51:05
			It gives gives anyone the benefit. And you
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:07
			can imagine a a desert dwelling people
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:10
			and the harsh heat, a cool breeze is
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:12
			something, you know, out of this world.
		
00:51:13 --> 00:51:13
			It's fun.
		
00:51:14 --> 00:51:15
			And and when you think about it as
		
00:51:15 --> 00:51:16
			well,
		
00:51:17 --> 00:51:18
			so many of us know that the process
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:20
			needs to give out the wind, but what
		
00:51:20 --> 00:51:22
			we don't know many of us and III
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:24
			was really pleased to hear this is that.
		
00:51:25 --> 00:51:27
			Himself descends from the heavens in Ramadan
		
00:51:28 --> 00:51:31
			to encourage the prophet Muhammad to give
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:34
			and if the prophet had happened to forget,
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			would descend to remind him.
		
00:51:38 --> 00:51:40
			Right? To remind him to give this is
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:42
			profound brothers and sisters. If you think about
		
00:51:42 --> 00:51:43
			it. Right? We we
		
00:51:44 --> 00:51:47
			we associate Jibril Islam with with mighty
		
00:51:47 --> 00:51:48
			tasks.
		
00:51:48 --> 00:51:50
			Yeah the greatest tasks of all the angels
		
00:51:51 --> 00:51:53
			to bring down Wahi, to bring down revelation,
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:04
			to give sadaqa.
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:06
			So,
		
00:52:06 --> 00:52:09
			you know, obviously the prophet is gone, but
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:11
			the legacy and these gems
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:12
			that teach us how
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:15
			to interact with our lord. They're there for
		
00:52:15 --> 00:52:17
			us. They're available. So let's focus on those
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:19
			on this blessed night of what could be
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:21
			later to other these last 10 nights.
		
00:52:22 --> 00:52:24
			What is an odd night inshallah? Let's support.
		
00:52:24 --> 00:52:25
			We are looking for
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:28
			50 people to give £100. We've already had,
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:31
			I think we've had let's see. We've got
		
00:52:31 --> 00:52:33
			1, 2.
		
00:52:34 --> 00:52:36
			We've got at least 2 people who've given
		
00:52:36 --> 00:52:37
			a £100. We've got one who's given a
		
00:52:37 --> 00:52:38
			500.
		
00:52:38 --> 00:52:40
			We've got an 87 in there, a 50
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:41
			in there, another 50.
		
00:52:42 --> 00:52:43
			So by my calculation,
		
00:52:44 --> 00:52:47
			7, 8, 9, I'd say we're coming close,
		
00:52:47 --> 00:52:48
			very close to a 1,000.
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:50
			We're about a 5th of the way through
		
00:52:50 --> 00:52:52
			our target, which is good.
		
00:52:53 --> 00:52:55
			Let's have let's have some confetti. I feel
		
00:52:55 --> 00:52:56
			I'm in a confetti kinda mood.
		
00:52:57 --> 00:52:59
			Let's press the button. Come on guys. Let's
		
00:52:59 --> 00:53:02
			celebrate. That's a celebration. I have I have
		
00:53:02 --> 00:53:02
			no
		
00:53:03 --> 00:53:05
			no power of the confetti as somebody else's
		
00:53:05 --> 00:53:05
			department.
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:07
			Oh, there you go. There you go. They
		
00:53:07 --> 00:53:09
			have we haven't called and they have answered,
		
00:53:10 --> 00:53:11
			to the admin team in the back, yeah,
		
00:53:11 --> 00:53:13
			our brother, if you could give us an
		
00:53:13 --> 00:53:15
			update on how much we're actually on, I
		
00:53:15 --> 00:53:16
			count just under a1000.
		
00:53:17 --> 00:53:19
			So brothers and sisters, we're looking for
		
00:53:19 --> 00:53:21
			another group of people. We're looking for 40
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:23
			people to come forward and give a £100.
		
00:53:24 --> 00:53:26
			Right? Forty more people to give
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:29
			a £100 to get us to the 5,000
		
00:53:29 --> 00:53:31
			target for tonight inshallah. I know we can
		
00:53:31 --> 00:53:32
			do it. I know we're gonna do it.
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:34
			We've only been here for less than an
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:37
			hour. Right? We've got another hour left.
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:39
			And inshallah, as we get closer to the
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:40
			last 3rd
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:43
			of the night when Allah descends to see
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:45
			which of my slaves is calling on me,
		
00:53:45 --> 00:53:46
			which of my slaves is asking for forgiveness.
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:49
			Allah's there, brothers and sisters. So give this
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:49
			sadaqa,
		
00:53:50 --> 00:53:53
			and it'll be a witness for you. And
		
00:53:53 --> 00:53:55
			sisters. So we are we are Islam 21
		
00:53:55 --> 00:53:58
			c. We're here live with, doctor Sajid Umar
		
00:53:58 --> 00:54:00
			coming on very shortly. And we are here
		
00:54:00 --> 00:54:01
			to talk to you a bit about
		
00:54:02 --> 00:54:06
			the Palestine Truth Campaign. So, Samad, what's been
		
00:54:06 --> 00:54:08
			the impact of the Palestine Truth Campaign so
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:09
			far?
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:13
			We haven't actually launched that specific campaign,
		
00:54:14 --> 00:54:16
			yet. Right? We've had,
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:19
			it's it's the planning. It's gone in, gone
		
00:54:19 --> 00:54:20
			in the background, alhamdulillah.
		
00:54:21 --> 00:54:24
			But, as the I think, Tarek sent you
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:27
			a PowerPoint with going through all of this
		
00:54:27 --> 00:54:29
			stuff. But, in terms of our Palestine con
		
00:54:29 --> 00:54:31
			content, you know, we've been blasting,
		
00:54:32 --> 00:54:35
			since, you know, the obviously, before 7th October,
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:37
			but since the, the the the genocide stepped
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:38
			up again,
		
00:54:39 --> 00:54:41
			you know, with the last permission, we've been
		
00:54:41 --> 00:54:42
			we've been,
		
00:54:42 --> 00:54:44
			blasting all kinds of, important,
		
00:54:45 --> 00:54:46
			you know, narratives and,
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:48
			interviews, podcasts,
		
00:54:50 --> 00:54:51
			graphic series,
		
00:54:52 --> 00:54:53
			daily video series,
		
00:54:54 --> 00:54:55
			in in Amazon as well.
		
00:54:56 --> 00:54:58
			I beg your pardon. So, yeah,
		
00:54:58 --> 00:55:00
			there's been a lot of, content
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:03
			articles as well. Who can forget our bread
		
00:55:03 --> 00:55:03
			and
		
00:55:03 --> 00:55:05
			butter. So, yeah,
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:07
			the the the Palestine truth campaign,
		
00:55:08 --> 00:55:10
			it's more specific, more
		
00:55:13 --> 00:55:14
			kind of concise,
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:15
			attacking
		
00:55:16 --> 00:55:16
			certain,
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:19
			you know, misinformation
		
00:55:20 --> 00:55:20
			and
		
00:55:21 --> 00:55:24
			correcting narratives about the Palestinian cause.
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:25
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:55:25 --> 00:55:26
			Something you know
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:31
			dear to all of our hearts. Let's see
		
00:55:31 --> 00:55:34
			if we can get a a
		
00:55:35 --> 00:55:37
			oh, it's right. £950. So, brothers and sisters,
		
00:55:37 --> 00:55:39
			the next 2 minutes, we need someone to
		
00:55:39 --> 00:55:42
			call in or someone to go online or
		
00:55:42 --> 00:55:43
			someone to call the donation line and do
		
00:55:43 --> 00:55:46
			that £50 to get us up to
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:47
			£1,000.
		
00:55:48 --> 00:55:50
			Okay? If you can do more, do more,
		
00:55:50 --> 00:55:51
			but let's get that 952,
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:54
			2000. It is 1226
		
00:55:55 --> 00:55:55
			by 1228,
		
00:55:56 --> 00:55:57
			1229 latest.
		
00:55:58 --> 00:56:00
			We need to go be past that 1,000
		
00:56:00 --> 00:56:00
			mark inshallah.
		
00:56:01 --> 00:56:03
			So who's gonna take us there? Who's gonna
		
00:56:03 --> 00:56:05
			who's gonna In the meantime, I'm gonna show
		
00:56:05 --> 00:56:06
			some comments.
		
00:56:06 --> 00:56:07
			I have this very,
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:09
			important comment
		
00:56:10 --> 00:56:12
			from SC. Can hear you both.
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:16
			And asked if he wrote Pakistani.
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:20
			That was, 19 past, so What did we
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:21
			say? What did we say for him today?
		
00:56:21 --> 00:56:23
			It was the, I think it was maybe
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:26
			the the Takbir. No Takbir. Asen, if you're
		
00:56:26 --> 00:56:26
			still listening,
		
00:56:27 --> 00:56:29
			let us know what you're referring to. I
		
00:56:29 --> 00:56:30
			think it's the
		
00:56:30 --> 00:56:33
			the, the notest opinion. Ethnicity. Maybe that's what
		
00:56:33 --> 00:56:34
			it is.
		
00:56:39 --> 00:56:42
			So let's get that next person together. £50
		
00:56:42 --> 00:56:44
			to get us past the £1,000 mark.
		
00:56:45 --> 00:56:45
			We need
		
00:56:46 --> 00:56:47
			40 people.
		
00:56:48 --> 00:56:49
			So just 40, we've got more than a
		
00:56:49 --> 00:56:52
			100 watching, I believe. Oh, that's correct, Asan.
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:53
			So if you're not there.
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:56
			Not a problem. I think, Asan, I think
		
00:56:56 --> 00:56:58
			it was very notable whether you're Pakistani or
		
00:56:58 --> 00:57:00
			not that that was a Pakistani clip.
		
00:57:01 --> 00:57:01
			Yeah?
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:05
			That was, it's ex, special points for, anyone
		
00:57:05 --> 00:57:07
			who knows where it's from.
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:08
			Oh,
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:09
			it's some,
		
00:57:10 --> 00:57:12
			it was some Bollywood movie or something, is
		
00:57:12 --> 00:57:13
			it? No.
		
00:57:14 --> 00:57:14
			No?
		
00:57:14 --> 00:57:15
			Masha'Allah.
		
00:57:15 --> 00:57:17
			He's doing it again.
		
00:57:20 --> 00:57:20
			Are you ready?
		
00:57:21 --> 00:57:22
			Let's go. I think he wants the takmir,
		
00:57:22 --> 00:57:23
			bro.
		
00:57:23 --> 00:57:25
			That's what it is.
		
00:57:26 --> 00:57:27
			If he does it,
		
00:57:28 --> 00:57:30
			I don't know. Let's go. I can't believe
		
00:57:30 --> 00:57:32

00:57:32 --> 00:57:33
			sorry. I'm sorry.

00:57:45 --> 00:57:46
			That's the one.
		
00:57:47 --> 00:57:49
			Was it loud enough? That that Didn't feel
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:51
			that loud? It could be a bit louder,
		
00:57:51 --> 00:57:52
			but it was good.
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:57
			I like it. Brother.

			We're asking 40 people to give a £100.
		
00:58:16 --> 00:58:18
			Maybe you can only give 10. Why not
		
00:58:18 --> 00:58:20
			get 9 other people to give another 10
		
00:58:20 --> 00:58:21

00:58:35 --> 00:58:38
			I'm getting more, I'm getting more evidence now
		
00:58:38 --> 00:58:40
			from the audience that, the Taqvir is a
		
00:58:40 --> 00:58:40
			hit.

			Right. I think we have got. Adi Patel

00:58:59 --> 00:59:01
			can get this guy at least attend that
		
00:59:01 --> 00:59:03
			sound effect. Let
		
00:59:04 --> 00:59:05
			me go online and complain. I think that's
		
00:59:05 --> 00:59:06
			all.
		
00:59:06 --> 00:59:08
			Who who is this guy?
		
00:59:08 --> 00:59:10
			So brothers and sisters if you've just joined
		
00:59:11 --> 00:59:13
			us. 21c we're live here. It should be
		
00:59:13 --> 00:59:15
			an hour into the show. We've got an
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:16
			hour left.
		
00:59:16 --> 00:59:18
			We are here to get your support on
		
00:59:18 --> 00:59:21
			this blessed night, the odd nights, the last
		
00:59:21 --> 00:59:23
			10 nights. You know, what could be, we're
		
00:59:23 --> 00:59:24
			here to ask for your support
		
00:59:25 --> 00:59:27
			in helping us fight the digital war. It's
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:30
			the ideological attack that's taking place worldwide globally
		
00:59:31 --> 00:59:33
			on men, women, on our children. They're attacking
		
00:59:33 --> 00:59:35
			our values, attacking our way of life.
		
00:59:35 --> 00:59:37
			It's a real situation,
		
00:59:37 --> 00:59:38
			and, unfortunately,
		
00:59:38 --> 00:59:39
			we have prioritized
		
00:59:40 --> 00:59:42
			other things that need our support, of course,
		
00:59:42 --> 00:59:44
			are worthy of giving, but we've neglected
		
00:59:44 --> 00:59:47
			organizations like Islam 21 c.
		
00:59:48 --> 00:59:51
			And to be honest, like I heard, our
		
00:59:51 --> 00:59:51
			brother,
		
00:59:52 --> 00:59:53
			Hamzah Zawtas, who'll be on in a couple
		
00:59:53 --> 00:59:55
			of days. I I heard him say it
		
00:59:55 --> 00:59:58
			about another very similar organization to to Islam
		
00:59:58 --> 01:00:00
			21 c. He said about 5 pillars. The
		
01:00:01 --> 01:00:02
			Organization doing great work as well.
		
01:00:03 --> 01:00:05
			And he said it's a shame, and the
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:07
			same applies for Islam 21 c. He said
		
01:00:07 --> 01:00:10
			it's a shame that this organization is not
		
01:00:10 --> 01:00:12
			30, 40, 50 times the size that it
		
01:00:12 --> 01:00:13
			should be.
		
01:00:14 --> 01:00:16
			Because that's the need first thing on the
		
01:00:16 --> 01:00:18
			ground. That's the response we have to have.
		
01:00:18 --> 01:00:19
			We have to make these
		
01:00:19 --> 01:00:21
			movements, these institutions,
		
01:00:21 --> 01:00:24
			you know, a part of the foundation or
		
01:00:24 --> 01:00:25
			and and the fabric of what we do
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:26
			in our society.
		
01:00:27 --> 01:00:29
			So we have to grow them. We have
		
01:00:29 --> 01:00:29
			to support them.
		
01:00:30 --> 01:00:32
			And if we do that, we'll see that
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:34
			the narrative will slowly start to shift. We'll
		
01:00:34 --> 01:00:35
			start to counter
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:37
			the Islamophobia.
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:38
			We'll start to normalize
		
01:00:38 --> 01:00:41
			Islam more, create more positive discourse,
		
01:00:41 --> 01:00:43
			and and present Islam in a compelling and
		
01:00:43 --> 01:00:46
			compassionate way to those others who don't understand
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:48
			it and bring benefit.
		
01:00:48 --> 01:00:49
			So
		
01:00:49 --> 01:00:50
			great.
		
01:00:50 --> 01:00:52
			I'm hearing myself. Is that normal, someone? There's
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:54
			others who don't understand it. As long as,
		
01:00:55 --> 01:00:57
			your voice isn't telling you to do anything
		
01:00:57 --> 01:00:58
			dangerous, then it's fine. Okay.
		
01:01:02 --> 01:01:03
			Okay. I'll I'll keep that in mind. I'll
		
01:01:03 --> 01:01:05
			let you know if I need any help.
		
01:01:06 --> 01:01:07
			Right, brothers and sisters. Let's get some calls,
		
01:01:07 --> 01:01:10
			and we got some good generous donations. So
		
01:01:10 --> 01:01:11
			let's say a big call, a big shout
		
01:01:11 --> 01:01:13
			to Adil, to Farhan,
		
01:01:13 --> 01:01:14
			to Nahid,
		
01:01:14 --> 01:01:17
			to Abdul Salib, to Asmara, Mohammed Musa,
		
01:01:18 --> 01:01:19
			Asan,
		
01:01:19 --> 01:01:20
			Latif,
		
01:01:21 --> 01:01:24
			Nahid Shah, Faisal Hayat, Abu Bakr, Hani.
		
01:01:24 --> 01:01:26
			We got lots of generous people out there
		
01:01:27 --> 01:01:29
			and the dua requires more brothers and sisters.
		
01:01:30 --> 01:01:32
			So let's give let's support the cause in
		
01:01:32 --> 01:01:34
			sha Allah. Islam 21 c is here. Simon,
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:35
			do we have an update
		
01:01:36 --> 01:01:38
			on our beloved Sheikh Sajid? Will he be
		
01:01:38 --> 01:01:39
			joining us anytime soon?
		
01:01:40 --> 01:01:42
			Yeah. He said no. He'll get he gets
		
01:01:42 --> 01:01:43
			back from, Tarawee
		
01:01:44 --> 01:01:45
			after midnight.
		
01:01:45 --> 01:01:48
			So Okay. Barik is, calling in the background
		
01:01:48 --> 01:01:49
			to schedule things
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:52
			Right. So brothers and sisters, stay tuned. Hopefully,
		
01:01:52 --> 01:01:54
			we'll have chef Sajid joining us very shortly.
		
01:01:55 --> 01:01:57
			Inshallah. I'm sure you're sitting there. I'm sure
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:58
			many people are actually sitting there with this
		
01:01:58 --> 01:02:00
			on while they read some Quran, while they
		
01:02:00 --> 01:02:01
			do some.
		
01:02:02 --> 01:02:03
			So as you're doing that, maybe just grab
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:05
			this link, share it with some friends and
		
01:02:05 --> 01:02:07
			families, ask them to join in,
		
01:02:07 --> 01:02:08
			ask them to make a commitment.
		
01:02:09 --> 01:02:10
			The more we can do it together, Inshallah,
		
01:02:10 --> 01:02:12
			the more impact we can have. We are
		
01:02:12 --> 01:02:13
			currently on
		
01:02:15 --> 01:02:15
			£1,060
		
01:02:17 --> 01:02:19
			which is just over a 5th way
		
01:02:19 --> 01:02:21
			of our 5,000 target, the Charlotte Brothers and
		
01:02:21 --> 01:02:22
			Sisters.
		
01:02:22 --> 01:02:25
			So The the software is telling us there's
		
01:02:25 --> 01:02:27
			99 people watching. It went down to 97.
		
01:02:28 --> 01:02:28
			98.
		
01:02:29 --> 01:02:31
			Okay. That's good.
		
01:02:31 --> 01:02:33
			Try to send send it around to more
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:34
			and more people. Get over a 100 people
		
01:02:34 --> 01:02:36
			watching at the same time. Let's do it.
		
01:02:36 --> 01:02:38
			You know 99 is a good number for
		
01:02:38 --> 01:02:39
			an online stream,
		
01:02:39 --> 01:02:40
			and
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:42
			what we need is it's not really the
		
01:02:42 --> 01:02:44
			numbers that matter. It's the quality of people
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:45
			watching.
		
01:02:45 --> 01:02:47
			So brothers and sisters I think we're gonna
		
01:02:47 --> 01:02:48
			have some beef now.
		
01:02:49 --> 01:02:51
			Oh, I'm gonna oh, I think is this
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:52
			the same? Oh, Ahmed.
		
01:02:53 --> 01:02:55
			I think people might donate if you promise
		
01:02:55 --> 01:02:56
			to not do that.
		
01:02:57 --> 01:02:59
			I agree with Ahmed. Ahmed, you're a smart
		
01:02:59 --> 01:03:00
			guy.
		
01:03:00 --> 01:03:03
			See, he's not that psychological background. We're getting
		
01:03:03 --> 01:03:05
			we're getting conflicting reports. I'm getting WhatsApp that
		
01:03:05 --> 01:03:06
			message is
		
01:03:06 --> 01:03:08
			saying, keep the takbir.
		
01:03:08 --> 01:03:11
			Listen. Listen. Nothing in life is free. If
		
01:03:11 --> 01:03:12
			they want that takbir,
		
01:03:12 --> 01:03:14
			right, they're gonna have to pay for it.
		
01:03:14 --> 01:03:16
			Okay? And those who don't want it, they
		
01:03:16 --> 01:03:18
			also have to pay. Not my intentions.
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:21
			Right.
		
01:03:21 --> 01:03:23
			Ahmed, I agree with you. I'm I'm with
		
01:03:23 --> 01:03:25
			you, Ahmed. Let's let's get let's get some
		
01:03:25 --> 01:03:27
			movement on this Inshallah.
		
01:03:27 --> 01:03:29
			Ahmed, I think if you donate £50, we're
		
01:03:29 --> 01:03:31
			in a good chance of applying some pressure
		
01:03:31 --> 01:03:33
			that £50 came through to not Okay. If
		
01:03:33 --> 01:03:36
			Ahmed donates £50, then I'll promise not to
		
01:03:36 --> 01:03:37
			do the.
		
01:03:39 --> 01:03:39
			Yeah.
		
01:03:40 --> 01:03:41
			And if not, what are you gonna do?
		
01:03:42 --> 01:03:43
			We just hit a 100 people and went
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:45
			down to 99 again. So maybe somebody you
		
01:03:45 --> 01:03:48
			see, somebody left when I promised not to
		
01:03:48 --> 01:03:49
			do the top video.
		
01:03:49 --> 01:03:50
			Can you see that?
		
01:03:50 --> 01:03:52
			We had hit a 100 people watching live.
		
01:03:53 --> 01:03:55
			Some of them. Thanks, Hassan. Ahmed,
		
01:03:55 --> 01:03:58
			you have 3 minutes. Okay? You have 3
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:00
			minutes for starting from now,
		
01:04:01 --> 01:04:03
			okay, to make a donation of £50.
		
01:04:04 --> 01:04:06
			Otherwise, he's going to do the Nanak ada
		
01:04:06 --> 01:04:08
			beard. Yeah. I'm I'm not even sure if
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:11
			it's if it's appropriate. If is is it,
		
01:04:11 --> 01:04:13
			you know I just thought I don't feel
		
01:04:13 --> 01:04:15
			comfortable with this narrative. It's been a shock,
		
01:04:16 --> 01:04:16
			Islamic,
		
01:04:17 --> 01:04:19
			head of Islamic thought. Yeah.
		
01:04:20 --> 01:04:22
			Now we're in trouble. Now we're in trouble.
		
01:04:22 --> 01:04:25
			Right. We are, Ahmed, you've got 2 and
		
01:04:25 --> 01:04:26
			a half minutes inshallah. We've got a comment
		
01:04:26 --> 01:04:27
			come through.
		
01:04:27 --> 01:04:30
			Okay. I'll do that until someone pays. I
		
01:04:30 --> 01:04:31
			want you to do it again.
		
01:04:33 --> 01:04:36
			Okay. I think we've we've stumbled across something
		
01:04:36 --> 01:04:37
			here. I'll do that until
		
01:04:38 --> 01:04:40
			someone pays 100 to do it again.
		
01:04:40 --> 01:04:42
			Alright. Let's do that. Okay. So does that
		
01:04:42 --> 01:04:44
			mean we have a is that a deal?
		
01:04:44 --> 01:04:46
			So it's a Ahmed is saying that he's
		
01:04:46 --> 01:04:48
			gonna donate £50 now,
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:50
			and we're not going to do the until
		
01:04:51 --> 01:04:53
			someone donates a £100.
		
01:04:54 --> 01:04:56
			That's simply for the knowledge to be.
		
01:04:57 --> 01:04:58
			Yeah. I think so.
		
01:04:59 --> 01:05:00
			And and then we'd have to get the
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:02
			next person to pay a 150 to not
		
01:05:02 --> 01:05:04
			do it. So we'll work by that. Yeah.
		
01:05:05 --> 01:05:07
			Okay. So is that a deal? Yes. We
		
01:05:07 --> 01:05:09
			have a deal. I think we have a
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:11
			deal, brothers. We got a deal. That like
		
01:05:11 --> 01:05:12
			it. Okay. So
		
01:05:12 --> 01:05:13
			so of those 99
		
01:05:14 --> 01:05:15
			people approximately
		
01:05:16 --> 01:05:16
			Brother.
		
01:05:17 --> 01:05:18
			Oh, that's nice and loud.
		
01:05:19 --> 01:05:21
			I don't know what happened, but I'm sure
		
01:05:21 --> 01:05:22
			my husband's left.
		
01:05:22 --> 01:05:23
			Right.
		
01:05:24 --> 01:05:25
			For those nights that I'm watching, what we
		
01:05:25 --> 01:05:26
			would like to have is we'd like to
		
01:05:26 --> 01:05:28
			have someone call in the studio. Oh, it's
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:30
			9. I wonder how it is.
		
01:05:30 --> 01:05:33
			Doing this. This is the third one,
		
01:05:33 --> 01:05:34
			the 4th one.
		
01:05:35 --> 01:05:37
			What what which is what? I'm talking
		
01:05:37 --> 01:05:38

01:05:40 --> 01:05:42
			or 4th when we've had it? The second
		
01:05:42 --> 01:05:42
			row.
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:45
			2nd. Okay. Has anyone called in in the
		
01:05:45 --> 01:05:48
			previous one? The, tuned in, didn't you?

01:05:54 --> 01:05:55
			Have we had someone called in previously?
		
01:05:56 --> 01:05:58
			Where's the link? The link is The link
		
01:05:58 --> 01:06:00
			is on the screen, my brother. It's not

01:06:13 --> 01:06:14
			So Asim, did you call in? That's the
		
01:06:14 --> 01:06:15
			question.
		
01:06:16 --> 01:06:18
			Did Asim call in the last one?
		
01:06:19 --> 01:06:21
			I was the last one.
		
01:06:21 --> 01:06:22
			I was in the last one.
		
01:06:23 --> 01:06:24
			Yeah.
		
01:06:27 --> 01:06:27

01:06:28 --> 01:06:29
			Did he call in, Saman? This is the
		
01:06:29 --> 01:06:30
			question. No. He didn't.

			Okay. Asad, I'm inviting you to some good
		
01:06:33 --> 01:06:35

01:06:51 --> 01:06:54
			Why? What's motivated? What you inspired you?

			bots,
		
01:08:36 --> 01:08:36
			robots.
		
01:08:37 --> 01:08:37
			Mhmm.
		
01:08:37 --> 01:08:38
			You know, we
		
01:08:39 --> 01:08:41
			how how many articles does Islam 21 c
		
01:08:41 --> 01:08:42
			produce
		
01:08:42 --> 01:08:44
			on average per week, per month? Give us
		
01:08:44 --> 01:08:46
			some stats. Do you know what the top
		
01:08:46 --> 01:08:46
			of your head?
		
01:08:47 --> 01:08:48
			I've
		
01:08:49 --> 01:08:50
			got a figure in my head of, like,
		
01:08:50 --> 01:08:51
			500 a year.
		
01:08:52 --> 01:08:53
			500 a year? That's,
		
01:08:54 --> 01:08:56
			because we have these annual meetings and,
		
01:08:57 --> 01:08:59
			every 300 to 500 a year.
		
01:09:00 --> 01:09:00
			Okay.
		
01:09:01 --> 01:09:03
			So that's interesting. And then couple that with
		
01:09:03 --> 01:09:05
			all the videos we produce,
		
01:09:06 --> 01:09:07
			There's a podcast.
		
01:09:08 --> 01:09:09
			There's a news feed.
		
01:09:10 --> 01:09:12
			There's lots of different clips of putting your
		
01:09:12 --> 01:09:13
			notes on ebook.
		
01:09:14 --> 01:09:15
			Picture this, brothers and sisters.
		
01:09:17 --> 01:09:18
			One of the last
		
01:09:19 --> 01:09:21
			political events in the world
		
01:09:22 --> 01:09:25
			is the American presidential elections.
		
01:09:26 --> 01:09:28
			And when this is happening, it's the most
		
01:09:28 --> 01:09:30
			talked about topic in the world.
		
01:09:30 --> 01:09:33
			You have places like India, Russia reporting on
		
01:09:33 --> 01:09:34
			it.
		
01:09:34 --> 01:09:35
			So what happened was
		
01:09:36 --> 01:09:39
			in a 2016 presidential election,
		
01:09:40 --> 01:09:42
			would you believe that as much as 20%
		
01:09:43 --> 01:09:46
			of all political discussion on social media,
		
01:09:47 --> 01:09:48
			it was generated by what?
		
01:09:49 --> 01:09:52
			It was generated by bots. It was generated
		
01:09:52 --> 01:09:53
			by about 400,000
		
01:09:55 --> 01:09:57
			social media bots.
		
01:09:57 --> 01:09:59
			Why do I mention that? Look. What is
		
01:09:59 --> 01:10:01
			a bot? A bot is basically a program,
		
01:10:01 --> 01:10:02
			right, that's run
		
01:10:03 --> 01:10:05
			to take a narrative,
		
01:10:06 --> 01:10:09
			manipulate it, change the word, change the style,
		
01:10:09 --> 01:10:10
			but the meaning is the same.
		
01:10:11 --> 01:10:13
			And those bots, they produce these narratives, they're
		
01:10:13 --> 01:10:15
			responding to comments online,
		
01:10:16 --> 01:10:18
			they're they're they're posting stuff everywhere.
		
01:10:19 --> 01:10:20
			There's fake accounts,
		
01:10:21 --> 01:10:24
			and they're just creating a a an account
		
01:10:24 --> 01:10:24
			narrative.
		
01:10:24 --> 01:10:26
			So if you wanna get someone in power,
		
01:10:26 --> 01:10:29
			you wanna elect someone, whatever it is, right,
		
01:10:30 --> 01:10:33
			It's these narratives that are putting presidents
		
01:10:33 --> 01:10:35
			into positions. It's electing presidents.
		
01:10:35 --> 01:10:37
			So imagine, 20%
		
01:10:37 --> 01:10:38
			of all online discourse
		
01:10:39 --> 01:10:40
			was created by 400,000
		
01:10:41 --> 01:10:42
			bots.
		
01:10:42 --> 01:10:43
			Robots, programs,
		
01:10:44 --> 01:10:47
			typing away. So all the articles were created
		
01:10:47 --> 01:10:48
			no matter how many we put out per
		
01:10:48 --> 01:10:50
			week, per month, per year.
		
01:10:50 --> 01:10:52
			It doesn't compare, brothers and sisters. This is
		
01:10:52 --> 01:10:54
			what we're up against. Now
		
01:10:54 --> 01:10:56
			in the future, we're not,
		
01:10:57 --> 01:10:58
			you know, this doesn't have to be a
		
01:10:58 --> 01:11:01
			technology that we're not at, we're not paying.
		
01:11:02 --> 01:11:03
			You know, we can do we can do
		
01:11:03 --> 01:11:06
			amazing things as well. It's like Ahmed just
		
01:11:06 --> 01:11:07
			did. He just gave £50.
		
01:11:08 --> 01:11:09
			Let's get let's get a sound effect.
		
01:11:13 --> 01:11:15
			So we can't get the Narita. There's someone
		
01:11:15 --> 01:11:17
			who likes the Narita bead pays more. It
		
01:11:17 --> 01:11:19
			shouldn't be played. Okay. There you have it,
		
01:11:19 --> 01:11:21
			brothers and sisters. The gun has been thrown.
		
01:11:22 --> 01:11:22
			Who's gonna
		
01:11:24 --> 01:11:27
			drop some Nartic bid? So Ahmed has saved
		
01:11:27 --> 01:11:28
			me. Hold her.
		
01:11:29 --> 01:11:31
			Cash. Yeah. Again. I mean, up to 99
		
01:11:31 --> 01:11:32
			people. Mentioned the
		
01:11:33 --> 01:11:35
			and it just jumped up more viewers watching.
		
01:11:36 --> 01:11:38
			I think there's a there's a correlation here.
		
01:11:39 --> 01:11:40
			Let's see what the comments are saying. Are
		
01:11:40 --> 01:11:42
			people happy that it's not there?
		
01:11:44 --> 01:11:46
			We need a we need a sound effect
		
01:11:46 --> 01:11:46
			for,
		
01:11:47 --> 01:11:49
			for Ahmed's donation. Are you ready?
		
01:11:50 --> 01:11:51
			Hold on. Who's a
		
01:11:52 --> 01:11:53
			Brother.
		
01:11:53 --> 01:11:55
			That's it. There you go. AKF, play the.
		
01:11:56 --> 01:11:58
			Let's see if I like it. My brother,
		
01:11:58 --> 01:12:00
			we have set a challenge, and we have
		
01:12:00 --> 01:12:01
			said
		
01:12:01 --> 01:12:03
			that if you want the Nadi tuck beard,
		
01:12:03 --> 01:12:04
			you have to donate a 100.
		
01:12:05 --> 01:12:08
			Okay? So Ahmed said he'll give 50. It's
		
01:12:08 --> 01:12:10
			worth it. It's worth it, bro. Yeah.
		
01:12:12 --> 01:12:14
			Ahmed said he'll pay 50 to 10. Also
		
01:12:14 --> 01:12:15
			put this,
		
01:12:16 --> 01:12:18
			this important thing. Put that number in the
		
01:12:18 --> 01:12:20
			chat or description to make it easy to
		
01:12:20 --> 01:12:21
			call. That's a good idea. I put it
		
01:12:21 --> 01:12:21
			on the,
		
01:12:22 --> 01:12:23
			chat
		
01:12:23 --> 01:12:26
			in the on the YouTube, but then we're
		
01:12:26 --> 01:12:28
			streaming in on multiple different platforms. So,
		
01:12:30 --> 01:12:32
			yeah, my screen is probably easier.
		
01:12:34 --> 01:12:36
			Alright. So if you wanna hear the beer,
		
01:12:36 --> 01:12:38
			you have to make a donation of £100
		
01:12:39 --> 01:12:40
			now.
		
01:12:40 --> 01:12:42
			Ahmed paid 50 to block it.
		
01:12:43 --> 01:12:45
			Now you need to pay a 100 if
		
01:12:45 --> 01:12:47
			you wanna hear it. It's worth someone thinks
		
01:12:47 --> 01:12:48
			it's worth it.
		
01:12:49 --> 01:12:49
			I,
		
01:12:50 --> 01:12:52
			I definitely disagree, but I want I want
		
01:12:52 --> 01:12:53
			a only he's done a 100 quid, so
		
01:12:53 --> 01:12:56
			I'm gonna agree with him. So, it is
		
01:12:56 --> 01:12:58
			worth it. So he you answered the question,
		
01:12:58 --> 01:13:00
			I just trust someone. The answer is yes.
		
01:13:01 --> 01:13:03
			Woah. Woah. Woah. That's a that's a different
		
01:13:03 --> 01:13:05
			question. Yeah. I'm I'm gonna say yes.
		
01:13:06 --> 01:13:09
			You're paying for, the Agile brother
		
01:13:09 --> 01:13:11
			slash sister, whoever you are, AKF.
		
01:13:12 --> 01:13:14
			What do you think AKF is?
		
01:13:18 --> 01:13:19
			Abdul Karhard Farooq.
		
01:13:21 --> 01:13:22
			Don't know if that is. I just made
		
01:13:22 --> 01:13:23
			that name up.
		
01:13:25 --> 01:13:25
			Right.
		
01:13:26 --> 01:13:27
			Sounds pious.
		
01:13:27 --> 01:13:29
			Well, I'm sure I'm sure he's a pious
		
01:13:29 --> 01:13:30
			brother.
		
01:13:32 --> 01:13:33
			Well, did you know? Okay. We hear a
		
01:13:33 --> 01:13:35
			100 100 live views, apparently, according to the
		
01:13:35 --> 01:13:37
			software. Oh, nice.
		
01:13:37 --> 01:13:39
			So I have a question for you. Do
		
01:13:39 --> 01:13:40
			you know what Very, very quiet.
		
01:13:41 --> 01:13:43
			So I do know what shadow banning is?
		
01:13:43 --> 01:13:46
			Yes. I've been shadow banned many times.
		
01:13:47 --> 01:13:48
			What is what shadow banning?
		
01:13:49 --> 01:13:51
			So shadow banning, we we have this, we've
		
01:13:51 --> 01:13:52
			had this a lot. You know, you maybe
		
01:13:52 --> 01:13:53
			you're getting a few 100,000
		
01:13:54 --> 01:13:55
			views on
		
01:13:55 --> 01:13:58
			something, usually on platforms that are algorithmically controlled,
		
01:13:58 --> 01:13:59
			Facebook,
		
01:13:59 --> 01:14:00
			Twitter,
		
01:14:01 --> 01:14:01
			Instagram,
		
01:14:03 --> 01:14:04
			TikTok, YouTube.
		
01:14:04 --> 01:14:06
			And all of a sudden you get, like,
		
01:14:06 --> 01:14:08
			just a few handful of, kind of views
		
01:14:08 --> 01:14:10
			and stuff like that in engagement,
		
01:14:10 --> 01:14:12
			Mostly on unfortunately on meta.
		
01:14:13 --> 01:14:15
			Instagram is not as bad, but Facebook is
		
01:14:15 --> 01:14:18
			very, very bad for this. We noticed, you
		
01:14:18 --> 01:14:18
			know,
		
01:14:19 --> 01:14:21
			put a picture of the camera up on
		
01:14:21 --> 01:14:23
			some of our channels, you get a 100000
		
01:14:23 --> 01:14:26
			views or whatever. You put something about Palestine
		
01:14:27 --> 01:14:27
			and it's
		
01:14:29 --> 01:14:29
			you know?
		
01:14:30 --> 01:14:33
			So, yeah, that's, that's that's one of the
		
01:14:33 --> 01:14:36
			reasons why we focus much more on,
		
01:14:36 --> 01:14:38
			we we, obviously, we we still put stuff
		
01:14:38 --> 01:14:40
			out on those platforms.
		
01:14:40 --> 01:14:41
			But we focused,
		
01:14:43 --> 01:14:44
			I would say primarily
		
01:14:44 --> 01:14:47
			long term focus is on our own platform.
		
01:14:49 --> 01:14:51
			One of the, in one of the podcasts
		
01:14:51 --> 01:14:53
			we did on brother, a YouTube, a mama
		
01:14:53 --> 01:14:55
			Hijab YouTuber. He said,
		
01:14:57 --> 01:14:57
			he said
		
01:14:58 --> 01:14:59
			they turned, they closed down
		
01:15:00 --> 01:15:02
			Russia today, RT
		
01:15:02 --> 01:15:05
			RT, the new channel. So that's that belongs
		
01:15:05 --> 01:15:07
			to a country. That's like a huge, you
		
01:15:07 --> 01:15:08
			know, thing. And they could just switch it
		
01:15:08 --> 01:15:11
			off after the Ukraine war began or something.
		
01:15:12 --> 01:15:14
			So no one else has got a chance
		
01:15:14 --> 01:15:15
			in terms of, you know,
		
01:15:17 --> 01:15:19
			having freedom to play,
		
01:15:19 --> 01:15:21
			to not play. Let me having free freedom
		
01:15:21 --> 01:15:23
			to say whatever they want. So that's why
		
01:15:23 --> 01:15:24
			our own platform, soundtrissy.com,
		
01:15:25 --> 01:15:28
			make sure you're there. Obviously, our mailing list,
		
01:15:28 --> 01:15:30
			so forth, we have, you know, as a
		
01:15:30 --> 01:15:30
			dedicated
		
01:15:31 --> 01:15:31
			views
		
01:15:32 --> 01:15:34
			the dedicated content on our mailing list.
		
01:15:36 --> 01:15:38
			That's very important for us too, and we're
		
01:15:38 --> 01:15:39
			building an app as well to have direct,
		
01:15:39 --> 01:15:41
			you know, contact with our audience.
		
01:15:41 --> 01:15:42
			And,
		
01:15:42 --> 01:15:44
			got a call coming in before I've got
		
01:15:44 --> 01:15:45
			a I've got a juicy,
		
01:15:47 --> 01:15:49
			something to say at the end of the
		
01:15:49 --> 01:15:51
			after the call, but guess who it is?
		
01:15:51 --> 01:15:53
			Could it be our beloved Sheikh?
		
01:15:53 --> 01:15:54
			Hello.
		
01:15:57 --> 01:15:58
			Assalamu alaikum.
		
01:16:00 --> 01:16:01
			Sorry.
		
01:16:02 --> 01:16:04
			I can't hear anyone. Can you hear me?
		
01:16:05 --> 01:16:06
			Now I can hear you.
		
01:16:16 --> 01:16:17
			I had no choice but to call.
		
01:16:20 --> 01:16:22
			You can hear. Right? We did this test
		
01:16:22 --> 01:16:23
			before. Yeah. Yeah.
		
01:16:24 --> 01:16:25
			Can you hear, Asan?
		
01:16:26 --> 01:16:30
			I, unfortunately, I can't, hear Tarik. Why? Oh,
		
01:16:30 --> 01:16:32
			it's such a big loss. I'm so sorry.
		
01:16:32 --> 01:16:34
			I'm so sorry for him. Such a major
		
01:16:34 --> 01:16:35
			loss.
		
01:16:36 --> 01:16:37
			Did you hear that?
		
01:16:38 --> 01:16:40
			Yeah. Yeah. So I think sorry. We were
		
01:16:40 --> 01:16:42
			kind of praising you or something, but, still
		
01:16:42 --> 01:16:43
			I could look at that.
		
01:16:44 --> 01:16:45
			Praising my own voice, actually.
		
01:16:46 --> 01:16:47
			May Allah bless you as well,
		
01:16:48 --> 01:16:49
			So, Asumai,
		
01:16:50 --> 01:16:52
			you you're interested in hearing this Nade Takbeard.
		
01:16:52 --> 01:16:53
			Is that why you've called in?
		
01:16:58 --> 01:17:01
			Not really. But but that's not a Takbir
		
01:17:01 --> 01:17:03
			is is quite funny, though. So it just
		
01:17:03 --> 01:17:05
			fire spices up the whole thing.
		
01:17:08 --> 01:17:10
			Do you sorry. I think you can hear
		
01:17:10 --> 01:17:12
			Tariq now. So, Tarek, go ahead. Do you
		
01:17:12 --> 01:17:13
			have any I understand. Do you have any
		
01:17:13 --> 01:17:16
			questions as well? Actually Tarek Wayer actually had,
		
01:17:16 --> 01:17:17
			had a question as to, you know, why
		
01:17:17 --> 01:17:19
			I've sort of, joined twice.
		
01:17:20 --> 01:17:21
			So that was the question that was posed
		
01:17:21 --> 01:17:23
			to me, while I was listening to you.
		
01:17:24 --> 01:17:24
			Yeah.
		
01:17:26 --> 01:17:28
			So, probably, the only reason is, basically, I
		
01:17:28 --> 01:17:30
			think if, if you know the people who
		
01:17:30 --> 01:17:33
			are doing anything which is, on the face
		
01:17:33 --> 01:17:35
			of it, good, and it's being done with
		
01:17:35 --> 01:17:37
			the class, from your perspective, then we should
		
01:17:37 --> 01:17:41
			support it. Simple as that. Alhamdulillah lives, I've
		
01:17:41 --> 01:17:42
			known, the people who are running at sound
		
01:17:42 --> 01:17:45
			21 c for, for over a decade.
		
01:17:45 --> 01:17:47
			And I'll I'll never get a chance to
		
01:17:47 --> 01:17:48
			support them and try and do that. And
		
01:17:48 --> 01:17:49
			I think just
		
01:17:50 --> 01:17:52
			donation is just one thing. But the fact
		
01:17:52 --> 01:17:54
			you dial in and you be there and,
		
01:17:54 --> 01:17:56
			parts within some way, direct or indirect, I
		
01:17:56 --> 01:17:58
			think they all have. So that's why I've
		
01:17:58 --> 01:17:59
			been, sort of parts within.
		
01:18:00 --> 01:18:00
			Very,
		
01:18:01 --> 01:18:02
			appreciate a lot.
		
01:18:03 --> 01:18:04
			Can I mention,
		
01:18:04 --> 01:18:06
			that you're also one of our,
		
01:18:08 --> 01:18:08
			writers?
		
01:18:11 --> 01:18:13
			Should I not mention that?
		
01:18:13 --> 01:18:16
			Yeah. Yeah. Entirely up to you, but I
		
01:18:16 --> 01:18:17
			haven't I haven't been writing for some time,
		
01:18:17 --> 01:18:19
			so I don't know. No. No. He's one
		
01:18:19 --> 01:18:20
			of our
		
01:18:20 --> 01:18:22
			beloved, contributors and writers,
		
01:18:24 --> 01:18:27
			writing on I won't mention, exactly what just
		
01:18:27 --> 01:18:29
			in case I'll get you in trouble, but
		
01:18:30 --> 01:18:32
			is a very, very,
		
01:18:33 --> 01:18:35
			a talented writer, and and he brings a
		
01:18:35 --> 01:18:36
			lot of,
		
01:18:36 --> 01:18:37
			benefit
		
01:18:37 --> 01:18:39
			for brothers and sisters to read on his
		
01:18:39 --> 01:18:40
			area of expertise.
		
01:18:42 --> 01:18:43
			We appreciate your help.
		
01:18:45 --> 01:18:46
			Thank you very much. Okay.
		
01:18:47 --> 01:18:47
			So
		
01:18:48 --> 01:18:50
			Do you have anything to say to the
		
01:18:50 --> 01:18:52
			brothers and sisters listening? It says telling us
		
01:18:52 --> 01:18:54
			there's a 102 people listening.
		
01:18:55 --> 01:18:57
			So Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if that's,
		
01:18:57 --> 01:18:59
			how accurate it is. Yeah. All all that
		
01:18:59 --> 01:19:01
			I can say really is, basically, I'm in
		
01:19:01 --> 01:19:02
			I'm in no position to say this, but
		
01:19:02 --> 01:19:04
			still since you're asking me to, which is
		
01:19:04 --> 01:19:06
			basically what Tarikai was saying initially. I mean,
		
01:19:06 --> 01:19:08
			it is so I also sort of fully
		
01:19:08 --> 01:19:10
			understand how difficult it is for these,
		
01:19:11 --> 01:19:11
			institutions,
		
01:19:12 --> 01:19:14
			which are not directly linked with feeding the
		
01:19:14 --> 01:19:17
			poor or or the oppressed. How difficult it
		
01:19:17 --> 01:19:19
			is for them to raise funding.
		
01:19:20 --> 01:19:22
			It's it's a huge challenge. And I think
		
01:19:22 --> 01:19:23
			we all need to understand this,
		
01:19:24 --> 01:19:24
			That there's,
		
01:19:25 --> 01:19:27
			there's going to be, there's a lag between
		
01:19:27 --> 01:19:29
			what we donate and how it's going to
		
01:19:29 --> 01:19:30
			come out in terms of its roots. But
		
01:19:30 --> 01:19:33
			there is a direct connection there between what
		
01:19:33 --> 01:19:34
			we're doing and the hair that will it
		
01:19:34 --> 01:19:36
			will that it will eventually,
		
01:19:36 --> 01:19:37
			bring.
		
01:19:38 --> 01:19:39
			We all need to understand this, and, hopefully,
		
01:19:39 --> 01:19:41
			I understand that too much better.
		
01:19:42 --> 01:19:43
			Allow me. I would like to do a
		
01:19:43 --> 01:19:45
			lot more, but, that's all I could do
		
01:19:45 --> 01:19:47
			right now. I mean I mean I mean,
		
01:19:49 --> 01:19:51
			in your time, and your wealth, and your
		
01:19:51 --> 01:19:52
			health, your family,
		
01:19:53 --> 01:19:55
			and all the brothers and sisters listening as
		
01:19:55 --> 01:19:55
			well.
		
01:19:58 --> 01:20:01
			I'm gonna let you go now. Thank you.
		
01:20:01 --> 01:20:02
			We pressurize you enough.
		
01:20:04 --> 01:20:05
			Alright. Thank you.
		
01:20:07 --> 01:20:07
			I
		
01:20:08 --> 01:20:09
			wonder if,
		
01:20:09 --> 01:20:12
			I wonder if Ahmed Tama is still listening.
		
01:20:13 --> 01:20:14
			I feel like
		
01:20:14 --> 01:20:15
			a
		
01:20:15 --> 01:20:17
			we're going getting another call.
		
01:20:25 --> 01:20:25
			Hello?
		
01:20:28 --> 01:20:29
			It says connecting.
		
01:20:32 --> 01:20:34
			This one is coming via WhatsApp Business,
		
01:20:35 --> 01:20:37
			which I downloaded just the other day.
		
01:20:38 --> 01:20:40
			Let's give the business a shout out, shall
		
01:20:40 --> 01:20:40
			we?
		
01:20:43 --> 01:20:45
			There you go. Honey, if try and call
		
01:20:45 --> 01:20:46
			in again.
		
01:20:47 --> 01:20:48
			I've got the app open now. I think
		
01:20:48 --> 01:20:50
			I have to open the app or something.
		
01:20:52 --> 01:20:53
			Excuse me.
		
01:20:53 --> 01:20:54
			So, yeah, I was
		
01:20:55 --> 01:20:56
			oh, Masha'Allah.
		
01:20:58 --> 01:20:59
			A pleasant surprise.
		
01:21:02 --> 01:21:04
			Assalamu alaikum. Can you hear me?
		
01:21:06 --> 01:21:07
			Loud and clear.
		
01:21:07 --> 01:21:09
			Allah bless you. How are you brothers?
		
01:21:10 --> 01:21:10
			Alhamdulillah.
		
01:21:12 --> 01:21:13
			How's your evening been?
		
01:21:14 --> 01:21:16
			Allah's most kind. Allah's most kind. Subhanallah.
		
01:21:19 --> 01:21:21
			Allah is most kind. May if it's
		
01:21:21 --> 01:21:23
			may Allah assist us in,
		
01:21:24 --> 01:21:25
			in having caught the night in Arab.
		
01:21:27 --> 01:21:29
			How you guys been? Sheikh Sajid
		
01:21:29 --> 01:21:31
			He was doing he was in Tarawee. He
		
01:21:31 --> 01:21:33
			was giving lectures, and he's just kinda rushing
		
01:21:33 --> 01:21:35
			around from appointment to appointment.
		
01:21:36 --> 01:21:38
			I literally I literally just got out. We
		
01:21:38 --> 01:21:40
			finished at 12:30
		
01:21:41 --> 01:21:42
			ish, 12:35 ish.
		
01:21:43 --> 01:21:43
			No.
		
01:21:43 --> 01:21:47
			And, then I saw, masha'Allah, a bunch of
		
01:21:47 --> 01:21:48
			calls and, obviously,
		
01:21:49 --> 01:21:52
			I thought, subhanAllah, what's going on? And, alhamdulillah.
		
01:21:52 --> 01:21:53
			You guys are still live and I made
		
01:21:53 --> 01:21:54
			it.
		
01:21:57 --> 01:21:58
			How are you doing, Tarek?
		
01:21:58 --> 01:22:01
			Nice to meet you. It's my pleasure, Sheikh.
		
01:22:01 --> 01:22:02
			It's been a while, but, we
		
01:22:03 --> 01:22:05
			saw each other so much in December and
		
01:22:05 --> 01:22:07
			I think January. So We did. We did.
		
01:22:07 --> 01:22:08
			We did. Indeed. I hope you guys can
		
01:22:08 --> 01:22:11
			see me clearly. I'm makeshift because I'm I'm
		
01:22:11 --> 01:22:12
			not, I'd like
		
01:22:12 --> 01:22:14
			like I said to Tariq, I am
		
01:22:15 --> 01:22:17
			joining this on the fly as they say.
		
01:22:18 --> 01:22:21
			Yeah. You're getting the real authentic Sheikh Sheikh
		
01:22:21 --> 01:22:22
			Sajid experience.
		
01:22:23 --> 01:22:26
			No studio. No special fancy lights.
		
01:22:26 --> 01:22:29
			No front lights. No, Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
		
01:22:29 --> 01:22:30
			Yeah. I mean, that's that's
		
01:22:30 --> 01:22:32
			I don't have a setup like you, doctor
		
01:22:32 --> 01:22:33
			Salman, but
		
01:22:35 --> 01:22:36
			I I was I was telling the the
		
01:22:36 --> 01:22:38
			team before we started, we should all have
		
01:22:38 --> 01:22:39
			been sent a different color
		
01:22:40 --> 01:22:42
			background strobe light. Right? Shit. I could have
		
01:22:42 --> 01:22:43
			had like a violet one, you could have
		
01:22:43 --> 01:22:45
			had a amber one, would have been like
		
01:22:45 --> 01:22:47
			We're very strict on our new branding, bro.
		
01:22:47 --> 01:22:50
			This is a very strict hue, a 170
		
01:22:50 --> 01:22:53
			degrees, this this green, and also another another
		
01:22:53 --> 01:22:55
			color. So we have a strict color palette,
		
01:22:55 --> 01:22:57
			but, yeah, we could, we could do that.
		
01:22:57 --> 01:22:59
			Can you get some flashing lights for us,
		
01:22:59 --> 01:23:01
			someone make it feel a bit more festive
		
01:23:01 --> 01:23:01
			tonight?
		
01:23:02 --> 01:23:04
			You know what? If somebody done it,
		
01:23:06 --> 01:23:08
			we'll get the back,
		
01:23:09 --> 01:23:11
			and we can get a a lights into
		
01:23:11 --> 01:23:11
			Tarek's house for
		
01:23:12 --> 01:23:15
			Chef Chef, firstly, before he starts talking about
		
01:23:16 --> 01:23:18
			we have a dilemma on our situation. Before
		
01:23:18 --> 01:23:20
			we get to the real important stuff, we
		
01:23:20 --> 01:23:22
			need you to clarify an issue for us.
		
01:23:22 --> 01:23:25
			Right? So we we'll be looking for more
		
01:23:25 --> 01:23:26
			sound effects.
		
01:23:26 --> 01:23:28
			We found 2 new sound effects,
		
01:23:29 --> 01:23:29
			and
		
01:23:29 --> 01:23:31
			we're trying to get decide with the viewers
		
01:23:31 --> 01:23:33
			watching in between ourselves,
		
01:23:33 --> 01:23:34
			which is
		
01:23:35 --> 01:23:37
			which is a more praiseworthy one. Okay?
		
01:23:37 --> 01:23:40
			So so I chose 1. Samant chose 1.
		
01:23:40 --> 01:23:42
			So Samant chose 1 for chef, we'll let
		
01:23:42 --> 01:23:43
			sheikh Hamid listen.
		
01:23:44 --> 01:23:45
			Actually, we had a deal with Ahmed Tumal
		
01:23:45 --> 01:23:48
			that we can't play it. No. But, brother
		
01:23:48 --> 01:23:50
			Ascent called up. He made a donation, I
		
01:23:50 --> 01:23:52
			think. I think that was before Ascent,
		
01:23:53 --> 01:23:53
			Ahmed's,
		
01:23:55 --> 01:23:57
			can we okay. Can this can be like
		
01:23:57 --> 01:23:59
			has for you. Okay. Okay.
		
01:24:00 --> 01:24:01
			Well, this is a problem. We're gonna have
		
01:24:01 --> 01:24:02
			to get someone has to donate a £100
		
01:24:02 --> 01:24:04
			now. Otherwise, chef will never be able to
		
01:24:04 --> 01:24:05
			answer this question.
		
01:24:06 --> 01:24:08
			The will not have the knowledge they need
		
01:24:08 --> 01:24:08
			to pursue
		
01:24:09 --> 01:24:10
			pursue their life goals.
		
01:24:11 --> 01:24:13
			So brothers and sisters watching, if you just
		
01:24:13 --> 01:24:16
			joined in, sislam 21 c, we're live with
		
01:24:16 --> 01:24:16
			you,
		
01:24:17 --> 01:24:19
			and we are here to support the cause
		
01:24:21 --> 01:24:24
			of protecting the Muslim identity. Islam 21 c
		
01:24:24 --> 01:24:26
			is there fighting the battles. It's fighting the
		
01:24:26 --> 01:24:28
			digital war. It's fighting the digital war
		
01:24:29 --> 01:24:29
			that is
		
01:24:30 --> 01:24:30
			challenging
		
01:24:31 --> 01:24:33
			the narratives that are trying to break down
		
01:24:33 --> 01:24:35
			the family unit. They're trying to break down
		
01:24:35 --> 01:24:38
			the Muslim identity. We're challenging secularism, liberalism,
		
01:24:39 --> 01:24:40
			LGBT movement, transgenderism.
		
01:24:41 --> 01:24:43
			We're trying to empower people to come closer
		
01:24:43 --> 01:24:45
			to Allah, to find more spirituality,
		
01:24:45 --> 01:24:46
			to understand how
		
01:24:47 --> 01:24:48
			to navigate the trials and tribulations
		
01:24:49 --> 01:24:50
			of
		
01:24:50 --> 01:24:52
			the world and all the problems that it
		
01:24:52 --> 01:24:54
			presents us in a 21st century context of
		
01:24:54 --> 01:24:57
			Islam. So you can support this project tonight
		
01:24:57 --> 01:24:58
			Go to Islam 21c.com
		
01:25:00 --> 01:25:02
			forward slash live. You can call us in
		
01:25:02 --> 01:25:03
			the studio on 077-694-3414.
		
01:25:06 --> 01:25:08
			Or if you'd like to donate on,
		
01:25:08 --> 01:25:10
			via phone, right, maybe a bit alone, you
		
01:25:10 --> 01:25:12
			wanna call up, have a chat with someone
		
01:25:13 --> 01:25:15
			in zero two zero three eight eight zero
		
01:25:15 --> 01:25:17
			two nine eight one. But we've got a
		
01:25:17 --> 01:25:18
			dilemma, my brothers and sisters.
		
01:25:19 --> 01:25:20
			We're trying to get to £5,000.
		
01:25:21 --> 01:25:22
			We've surpassed the £1,000
		
01:25:23 --> 01:25:25
			mark. We'll get an update very soon exactly
		
01:25:25 --> 01:25:26
			how much over.
		
01:25:26 --> 01:25:28
			But we had Ahmed Tomar who called in
		
01:25:28 --> 01:25:31
			and said I will pay or invest and
		
01:25:31 --> 01:25:33
			donate £50 if you do not do this
		
01:25:33 --> 01:25:34
			sound effect.
		
01:25:34 --> 01:25:36
			Okay? Oh, hold on. Hold on. We've got
		
01:25:36 --> 01:25:37
			an update
		
01:25:37 --> 01:25:38
			here. Right?
		
01:25:38 --> 01:25:41
			The the How many is that move? So
		
01:25:41 --> 01:25:43
			Ahmed said, you'll give £50 if we don't
		
01:25:43 --> 01:25:45
			play the Naretak beard. Okay?
		
01:25:47 --> 01:25:48
			But then but then we can only play
		
01:25:48 --> 01:25:50
			the Naretak beard after that if we get
		
01:25:50 --> 01:25:51
			a £100
		
01:25:52 --> 01:25:52
			donation.
		
01:25:53 --> 01:25:54
			But now the Sheikh is here to answer
		
01:25:54 --> 01:25:55
			this
		
01:25:55 --> 01:25:59
			this fitna we're having. Right? Which sound effect
		
01:25:59 --> 01:26:00
			should take more priority.
		
01:26:00 --> 01:26:03
			So we've been given permission by the donor,
		
01:26:03 --> 01:26:03
			Ahmed.
		
01:26:04 --> 01:26:06
			So let's find out now. Saman, which we
		
01:26:06 --> 01:26:07
			which should we start with?
		
01:26:08 --> 01:26:09
			Up to
		
01:26:09 --> 01:26:10
			you.
		
01:26:11 --> 01:26:13
			I can see I can see he has
		
01:26:13 --> 01:26:14
			his hand on the button. His hands on
		
01:26:14 --> 01:26:16
			the pulse. Which would you like? On the
		
01:26:16 --> 01:26:19
			pulse. I'll tell you what, Asimhan, wherever your
		
01:26:19 --> 01:26:20
			finger is, go for that one.
		
01:26:21 --> 01:26:22
			Alright. That that was the wrong one.
		
01:26:25 --> 01:26:25
			Wait a minute.
		
01:26:26 --> 01:26:28
			I've forgotten, actually.
		
01:26:44 --> 01:26:46
			Here's my one. Here's my one.
		
01:26:50 --> 01:26:51
			Is that your one?
		
01:26:51 --> 01:26:53
			It's not me. It's not me, but it's
		
01:26:53 --> 01:26:54
			the one I chose.
		
01:26:55 --> 01:26:56
			Yeah. Yeah. I think, you know yeah. I
		
01:26:56 --> 01:26:57
			mean, firstly,
		
01:26:58 --> 01:26:58
			Salman,
		
01:26:59 --> 01:27:02
			May Allah forgive you for polluting my, my
		
01:27:02 --> 01:27:04
			beautiful 23rd night. SubhanAllah.
		
01:27:04 --> 01:27:05
			I would this,
		
01:27:06 --> 01:27:08
			but alhamdulillah, good comeback with the second,
		
01:27:10 --> 01:27:10
			masha'Allah,
		
01:27:13 --> 01:27:15
			that we had. I I'm I'm with Tariq
		
01:27:15 --> 01:27:15
			on this one.
		
01:27:16 --> 01:27:17
			Okay. Time for AK,
		
01:27:18 --> 01:27:19
			f to put his money where his mouth
		
01:27:19 --> 01:27:21
			is. You heard it now. You got the
		
01:27:21 --> 01:27:23
			permission from, Tariq.
		
01:27:23 --> 01:27:25
			If we get a £100, then, you know,
		
01:27:25 --> 01:27:27
			it's back on the table. But before that,
		
01:27:27 --> 01:27:30
			let's not, let's not get carried away too
		
01:27:30 --> 01:27:31
			much.
		
01:27:32 --> 01:27:35
			We want to get some, obviously, some gems
		
01:27:35 --> 01:27:36
			from the the sheikh.
		
01:27:37 --> 01:27:39
			You know, we we're gonna be talking about,
		
01:27:40 --> 01:27:41
			truth versus deception.
		
01:27:42 --> 01:27:43
			But, oh,
		
01:27:44 --> 01:27:47
			Nahid, masha'Allah, has donated another £100. Already gave
		
01:27:47 --> 01:27:49
			50, now a 100, masha'Allah. You gave 500.
		
01:27:50 --> 01:27:51
			God bless. I love that.
		
01:27:55 --> 01:27:55
			Masha'Allah. Allah bless him.
		
01:27:56 --> 01:27:58
			Sheikh coming, the smile, lighting up the room.
		
01:27:59 --> 01:28:01
			Allah bless him on this blessed night.
		
01:28:03 --> 01:28:05
			Allah bless you on this blessed night, Yarov.
		
01:28:05 --> 01:28:07
			I mean I mean I mean I'll accept
		
01:28:07 --> 01:28:08
			all these donations from everybody.
		
01:28:09 --> 01:28:10
			You I mean I mean,
		
01:28:11 --> 01:28:12
			Jeff, while we while we're here, while we
		
01:28:12 --> 01:28:14
			have you, we wanna make use of your
		
01:28:14 --> 01:28:16
			time. We wanna take benefit from you,
		
01:28:17 --> 01:28:19
			and we want to offer,
		
01:28:19 --> 01:28:21
			some insights for our viewers
		
01:28:22 --> 01:28:23
			on the importance
		
01:28:23 --> 01:28:25
			of the work that Islam 21 c is
		
01:28:25 --> 01:28:26
			doing.
		
01:28:26 --> 01:28:28
			Can you help us to understand, Sheikh? Maybe
		
01:28:29 --> 01:28:30
			give us a little,
		
01:28:31 --> 01:28:33
			some knowledge. Maybe we can discuss it a
		
01:28:33 --> 01:28:35
			little bit. We can ask some questions. But
		
01:28:35 --> 01:28:37
			we wanna understand what is the importance
		
01:28:38 --> 01:28:40
			of countering misinformation. And the world is so
		
01:28:40 --> 01:28:43
			prevalent with it these days. But why is
		
01:28:43 --> 01:28:45
			it so important to to challenge these narratives,
		
01:28:45 --> 01:28:49
			to offer counter narrative against all the propaganda
		
01:28:49 --> 01:28:51
			that's taking place in a world that really
		
01:28:52 --> 01:28:53
			it's hard to know what's really true and
		
01:28:53 --> 01:28:54
			what's falsehood?
		
01:28:55 --> 01:28:58
			Well, it's important because it's a duty. That's
		
01:28:58 --> 01:29:00
			just a reality. It's a duty upon us.
		
01:29:00 --> 01:29:02
			Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
01:29:03 --> 01:29:06
			has placed upon our collective shoulders
		
01:29:07 --> 01:29:08
			the work of the
		
01:29:09 --> 01:29:11
			the prophets and messengers would be doing this.
		
01:29:11 --> 01:29:13
			That's exactly what they came to do. They
		
01:29:13 --> 01:29:14
			came to counter false narratives.
		
01:29:15 --> 01:29:16
			They came to
		
01:29:18 --> 01:29:20
			stand as adversaries against falsehood, and they were
		
01:29:20 --> 01:29:21
			advocates
		
01:29:22 --> 01:29:24
			for everything that was righteousness
		
01:29:24 --> 01:29:25
			and and and,
		
01:29:26 --> 01:29:27
			part of justice,
		
01:29:27 --> 01:29:28
			and,
		
01:29:29 --> 01:29:30
			they stood with the truth.
		
01:29:31 --> 01:29:34
			In in in a world where no messengers
		
01:29:34 --> 01:29:35
			to come,
		
01:29:37 --> 01:29:38
			the Ummah of Muhammad
		
01:29:39 --> 01:29:40
			assumes that role.
		
01:29:41 --> 01:29:43
			Rasallat said, We're the best of all nations.
		
01:29:43 --> 01:29:44
			We're the best of all nations for a
		
01:29:44 --> 01:29:45
			reason.
		
01:29:46 --> 01:29:47
			They're not just the best of all nations
		
01:29:47 --> 01:29:49
			as an honorific, It's not just a title
		
01:29:49 --> 01:29:51
			void of responsibility. Right?
		
01:29:52 --> 01:29:54
			So it's important. The work of Islam 21
		
01:29:54 --> 01:29:56
			c is important because
		
01:29:56 --> 01:29:58
			it's actually taking care
		
01:29:58 --> 01:29:59
			of
		
01:29:59 --> 01:30:00
			a responsibility.
		
01:30:02 --> 01:30:03
			You could even say an obligation,
		
01:30:03 --> 01:30:04
			really.
		
01:30:04 --> 01:30:06
			And, for those who can't
		
01:30:07 --> 01:30:08
			stand against
		
01:30:08 --> 01:30:11
			or can't be an adversary against certain forms
		
01:30:11 --> 01:30:12
			of,
		
01:30:13 --> 01:30:13
			misguidance,
		
01:30:14 --> 01:30:15
			then they should support,
		
01:30:16 --> 01:30:17
			institutions,
		
01:30:18 --> 01:30:18
			that are.
		
01:30:19 --> 01:30:21
			The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said that
		
01:30:23 --> 01:30:23
			the one who,
		
01:30:24 --> 01:30:25
			armors and
		
01:30:25 --> 01:30:26
			funds
		
01:30:26 --> 01:30:28
			the soldier, then he also is in the
		
01:30:28 --> 01:30:29
			path of Allah even though he might not
		
01:30:29 --> 01:30:32
			go out in the path of Allah. So,
		
01:30:32 --> 01:30:33
			if we have
		
01:30:34 --> 01:30:36
			institutions on the front lines, and Islam 21
		
01:30:36 --> 01:30:37
			c is one of them,
		
01:30:38 --> 01:30:41
			that is standing for the truth and supporting
		
01:30:41 --> 01:30:42
			the truth
		
01:30:43 --> 01:30:43
			being
		
01:30:44 --> 01:30:46
			an adversary against,
		
01:30:47 --> 01:30:48
			the false
		
01:30:48 --> 01:30:49
			narratives,
		
01:30:50 --> 01:30:52
			then it should be supported.
		
01:30:52 --> 01:30:54
			It should be supported. And in our support
		
01:30:54 --> 01:30:56
			of the program, will we take care of
		
01:30:56 --> 01:30:59
			the responsibility that's on our shoulders? Because Allah
		
01:30:59 --> 01:31:00
			will ask us as well. We will be
		
01:31:00 --> 01:31:02
			asked what did we do.
		
01:31:02 --> 01:31:03
			So, but, Alhamdulillah,
		
01:31:04 --> 01:31:05
			Allah is merciful.
		
01:31:06 --> 01:31:07
			Islam is merciful.
		
01:31:07 --> 01:31:09
			Islam didn't tell us that, you know, you
		
01:31:09 --> 01:31:11
			have to do this, but it can only
		
01:31:11 --> 01:31:14
			happen this way. Islam told us that it
		
01:31:14 --> 01:31:15
			can happen in a manner that is,
		
01:31:17 --> 01:31:18
			conducive to your circumstance.
		
01:31:19 --> 01:31:21
			So if you can't do it yourself, support
		
01:31:21 --> 01:31:22
			someone who can.
		
01:31:23 --> 01:31:25
			And and and you will get the reward.
		
01:31:25 --> 01:31:26
			They will get the rewards, and you will
		
01:31:26 --> 01:31:28
			get the rewards because we are an Ummah
		
01:31:28 --> 01:31:31
			of Ata'awun alalbiriwat taqwah. So Allah has set
		
01:31:31 --> 01:31:32
			us as interdependent
		
01:31:33 --> 01:31:33
			beings.
		
01:31:34 --> 01:31:36
			That is by design. That's a universal principle.
		
01:31:37 --> 01:31:38
			We are interdependent
		
01:31:38 --> 01:31:40
			by design. And Allah,
		
01:31:41 --> 01:31:42
			sets a principle
		
01:31:43 --> 01:31:44
			that we can,
		
01:31:45 --> 01:31:45
			truly
		
01:31:46 --> 01:31:46
			experience,
		
01:31:47 --> 01:31:49
			each other's potential if we leverage off each
		
01:31:49 --> 01:31:52
			other's strengths. And that is the idea of
		
01:31:52 --> 01:31:53
			tawen, that we cooperate
		
01:31:54 --> 01:31:55
			upon,
		
01:31:55 --> 01:31:57
			that which is righteous and that which is
		
01:31:57 --> 01:31:59
			beloved to Allah So,
		
01:32:00 --> 01:32:02
			you know, a lot of the narratives require
		
01:32:02 --> 01:32:04
			a level of study, a level of reading,
		
01:32:04 --> 01:32:05
			a level of thought.
		
01:32:05 --> 01:32:07
			Not all of us have time to,
		
01:32:08 --> 01:32:09
			engage academia.
		
01:32:10 --> 01:32:11
			But, alhamdulillah, if you have an institution that's
		
01:32:11 --> 01:32:13
			dedicated to it, then all that's left is
		
01:32:13 --> 01:32:16
			for us to support it with and support
		
01:32:16 --> 01:32:17
			doesn't just mean funding.
		
01:32:17 --> 01:32:19
			Support it with dua.
		
01:32:19 --> 01:32:20
			Support it with,
		
01:32:20 --> 01:32:22
			dua is one of the most strongest forms
		
01:32:22 --> 01:32:23
			of support
		
01:32:23 --> 01:32:25
			that we can give to our institutions.
		
01:32:26 --> 01:32:27
			Du'a,
		
01:32:27 --> 01:32:28
			and then also,
		
01:32:29 --> 01:32:31
			supporting it with expertise
		
01:32:31 --> 01:32:33
			that you might not be able to
		
01:32:34 --> 01:32:36
			assist the institution,
		
01:32:37 --> 01:32:39
			in terms of the frontline operation.
		
01:32:40 --> 01:32:42
			But the back end operation, you have expertise.
		
01:32:42 --> 01:32:45
			It could be user interface expertise. It could
		
01:32:45 --> 01:32:46
			be
		
01:32:46 --> 01:32:48
			tech expertise. It could be,
		
01:32:48 --> 01:32:49
			anything
		
01:32:49 --> 01:32:51
			that you, you know, legal
		
01:32:52 --> 01:32:52
			support,
		
01:32:54 --> 01:32:55
			and then, you know,
		
01:32:56 --> 01:32:59
			financial support, no doubt, because we live in
		
01:32:59 --> 01:33:00
			a world that,
		
01:33:01 --> 01:33:02
			has wealth
		
01:33:02 --> 01:33:04
			as a form of oxygen in terms of
		
01:33:04 --> 01:33:04
			driving,
		
01:33:05 --> 01:33:07
			institutions. It's just a necessary requirement.
		
01:33:08 --> 01:33:10
			It's not that these institutions are set up
		
01:33:10 --> 01:33:12
			for the sake of gathering funds,
		
01:33:12 --> 01:33:14
			but it's just a matter of necessity.
		
01:33:14 --> 01:33:15
			That's it. So,
		
01:33:16 --> 01:33:19
			and, you know, these organizations are not asking
		
01:33:19 --> 01:33:20
			for themselves.
		
01:33:21 --> 01:33:23
			They are and they're not asking you for
		
01:33:23 --> 01:33:25
			them. They're asking you for you. This is
		
01:33:25 --> 01:33:26
			the reality,
		
01:33:26 --> 01:33:27
			brothers and sisters in Islam.
		
01:33:28 --> 01:33:29
			Sometimes,
		
01:33:30 --> 01:33:31
			you know, people who are in the fundraising
		
01:33:31 --> 01:33:32
			space, they do,
		
01:33:33 --> 01:33:34
			speak to me and say, Sheikh, it's tough.
		
01:33:34 --> 01:33:37
			You know, you're constantly asking, asking, asking. The
		
01:33:37 --> 01:33:38
			causes are many.
		
01:33:39 --> 01:33:42
			Financial difficulty is in play. And, you know,
		
01:33:42 --> 01:33:44
			donor fatigue is actually a thing that's being,
		
01:33:45 --> 01:33:47
			discussed. And I say to my brothers, I
		
01:33:47 --> 01:33:48
			said, listen, guys.
		
01:33:48 --> 01:33:50
			You're asking for them. You're not asking for
		
01:33:50 --> 01:33:51
			you. You're asking
		
01:33:52 --> 01:33:54
			for them and for the sake of Allah.
		
01:33:54 --> 01:33:57
			Never ever ever be shy to ask this
		
01:33:57 --> 01:33:57
			way.
		
01:33:58 --> 01:34:00
			You know, asking for yourself is something that
		
01:34:00 --> 01:34:02
			should make you shy. But asking for Allah,
		
01:34:03 --> 01:34:06
			for a means that benefits the person who,
		
01:34:06 --> 01:34:06
			you
		
01:34:08 --> 01:34:10
			know, who is the hand that gives. Never
		
01:34:10 --> 01:34:11
			feel shy about that because at the end
		
01:34:11 --> 01:34:12
			of the day,
		
01:34:17 --> 01:34:18
			The one who is guided,
		
01:34:19 --> 01:34:21
			then they are guided in the in in
		
01:34:21 --> 01:34:22
			in the manner
		
01:34:22 --> 01:34:24
			of only benefiting themselves. It's it's not that,
		
01:34:24 --> 01:34:26
			you know, Allah needs them to be guided
		
01:34:26 --> 01:34:28
			for Allah's majesty to be great. Allah is
		
01:34:28 --> 01:34:30
			perfect from ever, and he's perfect forever.
		
01:34:30 --> 01:34:31
			And,
		
01:34:33 --> 01:34:34
			Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
01:34:35 --> 01:34:38
			you know, he's he's he has complete sovereignty,
		
01:34:39 --> 01:34:40
			over his decree
		
01:34:40 --> 01:34:43
			and, his way. It is us really who
		
01:34:43 --> 01:34:44
			are.
		
01:34:45 --> 01:34:48
			We are impoverished in need of the forgiveness
		
01:34:48 --> 01:34:50
			of our Lord, and it's only us putting
		
01:34:50 --> 01:34:52
			up our hand and saying, you Allah choose
		
01:34:52 --> 01:34:53
			us to be a means
		
01:34:54 --> 01:34:55
			for your decree
		
01:34:56 --> 01:34:59
			that is under your complete sovereignty that will
		
01:34:59 --> 01:35:02
			be in its being. Use us as a
		
01:35:02 --> 01:35:04
			means so that we are honored, really,
		
01:35:04 --> 01:35:06
			to be part and parcel of the process.
		
01:35:06 --> 01:35:08
			So this is this is the reality, brothers
		
01:35:08 --> 01:35:11
			and sisters in Islam. Why is the is
		
01:35:11 --> 01:35:13
			the work of Islam 21 c important? I
		
01:35:13 --> 01:35:14
			think I've highlighted that and why we should
		
01:35:14 --> 01:35:16
			be a part of it. Then from the
		
01:35:16 --> 01:35:18
			perspective of the work, I've shared,
		
01:35:19 --> 01:35:21
			some ideas and also from the perspective of
		
01:35:21 --> 01:35:21
			ourselves,
		
01:35:22 --> 01:35:23
			from the perspective,
		
01:35:24 --> 01:35:25
			of ourselves. So,
		
01:35:26 --> 01:35:29
			yes, everyone who donated, I I echo, what,
		
01:35:29 --> 01:35:31
			doctor Salman and and Barik, you know, what
		
01:35:31 --> 01:35:34
			they were saying. Allah except from everyone who,
		
01:35:35 --> 01:35:36
			traded with Allah
		
01:35:36 --> 01:35:39
			this evening, And I don't doubt that Allah
		
01:35:39 --> 01:35:41
			will invest your your
		
01:35:41 --> 01:35:42
			your trade 7000%,
		
01:35:43 --> 01:35:45
			then you will see the returns. You will
		
01:35:45 --> 01:35:46
			see the returns, alhamdulillah.
		
01:35:47 --> 01:35:50
			SubhanAllah SubhanAllah. Shaikhina, when you when when we
		
01:35:50 --> 01:35:51
			when we put this,
		
01:35:52 --> 01:35:53
			the plan together for these streams and and
		
01:35:53 --> 01:35:55
			this topic in particular as well,
		
01:35:57 --> 01:35:59
			so the importance of the media, the media
		
01:35:59 --> 01:36:00
			battlefield,
		
01:36:01 --> 01:36:02
			miss misinformation
		
01:36:02 --> 01:36:04
			tackling misinformation and propaganda.
		
01:36:05 --> 01:36:07
			I was just thinking even during,
		
01:36:08 --> 01:36:10
			you know, I just you you're looking you're
		
01:36:10 --> 01:36:13
			listening to those ayaat, and you're you're thinking
		
01:36:13 --> 01:36:14
			and you're reflecting over them from a
		
01:36:15 --> 01:36:17
			angle, you know, from the perspective of making
		
01:36:17 --> 01:36:19
			to the on the notion of the media
		
01:36:19 --> 01:36:22
			and and propaganda and truth and falsehood and
		
01:36:22 --> 01:36:24
			so forth. It'd be good to just get
		
01:36:24 --> 01:36:26
			some reflections from me if you if you
		
01:36:26 --> 01:36:27
			came across anything like that. I mean, I
		
01:36:27 --> 01:36:29
			don't know. We were discussing before you joined.
		
01:36:30 --> 01:36:32
			You know, depending on where you are, how
		
01:36:32 --> 01:36:34
			how fast your goes through the must have.
		
01:36:35 --> 01:36:35
			Yeah.
		
01:36:35 --> 01:36:37
			People are going through
		
01:36:37 --> 01:36:39
			around about this time sort of fusilat. We're
		
01:36:39 --> 01:36:41
			just referring to the ayah.
		
01:36:53 --> 01:36:54
			We're going through the the 24th,
		
01:36:55 --> 01:36:55
			Jews.
		
01:36:56 --> 01:36:58
			We completed Surah Zumr today, then,
		
01:36:59 --> 01:37:01
			we embarked on, Surah Al Khafir, and then
		
01:37:01 --> 01:37:03
			Surah Al Fusilat. Surah Al Khafir,
		
01:37:05 --> 01:37:06
			is the first of the Hawamim.
		
01:37:07 --> 01:37:08
			Hawamim. The,
		
01:37:08 --> 01:37:10
			surahs that begin with hamim
		
01:37:10 --> 01:37:12
			and the 7 of them.
		
01:37:12 --> 01:37:14
			And they are in the order that we
		
01:37:14 --> 01:37:15
			have them in the Quran, starting with Surah
		
01:37:15 --> 01:37:16
			Gafir.
		
01:37:16 --> 01:37:18
			And Abdullah ibn Abbas
		
01:37:18 --> 01:37:21
			he he states that these 7 Suras were
		
01:37:21 --> 01:37:22
			revealed in order after
		
01:37:23 --> 01:37:23
			Surah Zumr.
		
01:37:24 --> 01:37:26
			And I was just telling our brothers and
		
01:37:26 --> 01:37:27
			sisters today in the Masjid that,
		
01:37:29 --> 01:37:30
			you know,
		
01:37:32 --> 01:37:33
			being hit
		
01:37:34 --> 01:37:34
			with
		
01:37:41 --> 01:37:43
			is potent in building Yimat,
		
01:37:44 --> 01:37:46
			really. Mhmm. And if you ponder over,
		
01:37:48 --> 01:37:50
			that the, you know, the reality of the
		
01:37:50 --> 01:37:52
			verses that were recited today in the 24th
		
01:37:52 --> 01:37:54
			June, you can actually appreciate that this was
		
01:37:54 --> 01:37:56
			at a, you know, at a severe time
		
01:37:56 --> 01:37:59
			during the Makkan phase of the prophetic mission.
		
01:37:59 --> 01:38:01
			But these ayat are coming over time,
		
01:38:03 --> 01:38:05
			and we have 7, the Hawami, Adi, one
		
01:38:05 --> 01:38:07
			after the other, all dealing with Makkah narratives,
		
01:38:07 --> 01:38:10
			establishing Allah is Allah and his oneness in
		
01:38:10 --> 01:38:12
			his lordship, his oneness in his worship, his
		
01:38:12 --> 01:38:14
			oneness in his names and attributes,
		
01:38:14 --> 01:38:17
			establishing the messenger as the messenger, establishing the
		
01:38:17 --> 01:38:18
			Quran as god sent,
		
01:38:18 --> 01:38:20
			establishing life after death in the day of
		
01:38:20 --> 01:38:21
			Qiyamah.
		
01:38:22 --> 01:38:22
			And
		
01:38:23 --> 01:38:24
			these are the genres of knowledge that we
		
01:38:24 --> 01:38:25
			find in the Meccan verses.
		
01:38:26 --> 01:38:28
			So it's all iman building, really.
		
01:38:29 --> 01:38:30
			And as the Tarawi was going on, I'm
		
01:38:30 --> 01:38:31
			thinking to myself,
		
01:38:32 --> 01:38:34
			the Quraysh are listening to these verses coming
		
01:38:34 --> 01:38:34
			down.
		
01:38:35 --> 01:38:36
			Actually, this predominantly,
		
01:38:37 --> 01:38:37
			the
		
01:38:38 --> 01:38:41
			the the arrogant disbelievers, the idolators,
		
01:38:41 --> 01:38:44
			who are fighting the messenger, sanctioning him, and
		
01:38:44 --> 01:38:47
			doing everything to avert people joining him,
		
01:38:48 --> 01:38:50
			persecuting those who are with him. They are
		
01:38:50 --> 01:38:52
			receiving these verses in a language that they
		
01:38:52 --> 01:38:54
			understand upon a level of eloquence that is
		
01:38:54 --> 01:38:55
			unmatched.
		
01:38:56 --> 01:38:58
			How must it be for them?
		
01:38:59 --> 01:39:01
			That surely, deep down, they know that this
		
01:39:01 --> 01:39:03
			person is speaking the truth, and it's just
		
01:39:03 --> 01:39:04
			utter arrogance
		
01:39:05 --> 01:39:05
			and,
		
01:39:07 --> 01:39:10
			you know, false affiliation to customs
		
01:39:10 --> 01:39:11
			of your forefathers
		
01:39:12 --> 01:39:14
			that's causing you to deny
		
01:39:14 --> 01:39:15
			a message
		
01:39:15 --> 01:39:17
			that even if you didn't have verses worth
		
01:39:17 --> 01:39:19
			it, is absolutely rational.
		
01:39:20 --> 01:39:22
			And we see these surahs affirming these realities,
		
01:39:22 --> 01:39:24
			not only in the narrative context, but also
		
01:39:24 --> 01:39:27
			in the form of stories, which is amazing.
		
01:39:27 --> 01:39:29
			So this consolidation process happens with the story.
		
01:39:29 --> 01:39:30
			I mean, take,
		
01:39:31 --> 01:39:33
			Surah Hafiz, for example. Allah chooses
		
01:39:34 --> 01:39:37
			again the story of Musa. So we see
		
01:39:37 --> 01:39:38
			Musa featuring
		
01:39:38 --> 01:39:41
			before Hijra and Musa featuring after Hijra. I
		
01:39:41 --> 01:39:43
			mean, Banu Israel is discussed in Surat Al
		
01:39:43 --> 01:39:44
			Baqarah, which is revealed
		
01:39:45 --> 01:39:47
			for most of the medallion period.
		
01:39:48 --> 01:39:49
			But in the Meccan Surahs as well, we
		
01:39:49 --> 01:39:51
			see Musa as if the prophet
		
01:39:52 --> 01:39:53
			is being taught
		
01:39:53 --> 01:39:55
			that the story
		
01:39:56 --> 01:39:57
			is
		
01:39:57 --> 01:39:58
			really similar
		
01:39:59 --> 01:40:00
			or even the same. It's just the actors
		
01:40:00 --> 01:40:01
			are different.
		
01:40:01 --> 01:40:03
			And what you're going through, if we just
		
01:40:03 --> 01:40:04
			rewind back,
		
01:40:05 --> 01:40:07
			same situation, but this time there's Musa
		
01:40:08 --> 01:40:09
			and there's Biraun.
		
01:40:09 --> 01:40:11
			And not just Biraun, but he had Karun
		
01:40:11 --> 01:40:13
			and he had Haman. And there was this
		
01:40:13 --> 01:40:14
			ridicule taking
		
01:40:14 --> 01:40:17
			place. And he Firaun telling Haman,
		
01:40:17 --> 01:40:19
			build me a tower so I can go
		
01:40:19 --> 01:40:20
			into the heavens. I can enter the pathways
		
01:40:20 --> 01:40:22
			towards heaven. Have a look at this deity
		
01:40:22 --> 01:40:23
			that,
		
01:40:23 --> 01:40:25
			Musa is calling to me. This is absolute
		
01:40:25 --> 01:40:26
			ridicule.
		
01:40:26 --> 01:40:27
			Absolute ridicule.
		
01:40:27 --> 01:40:28
			But also,
		
01:40:30 --> 01:40:32
			within the story, scholars of some of the
		
01:40:32 --> 01:40:35
			scholars of tafsir have deduced that their own
		
01:40:35 --> 01:40:36
			deep down knew
		
01:40:37 --> 01:40:38
			that he's preaching
		
01:40:39 --> 01:40:40
			a false narrative.
		
01:40:41 --> 01:40:41
			Because
		
01:40:42 --> 01:40:42
			when
		
01:40:45 --> 01:40:47
			his close people in Haman and Qarun are
		
01:40:47 --> 01:40:49
			saying, let's kill the people who are with
		
01:40:49 --> 01:40:52
			him, and and let's enslave the women.
		
01:40:52 --> 01:40:53
			Firaun says,
		
01:40:54 --> 01:40:55
			let's kill Musa.
		
01:40:56 --> 01:40:58
			Let's kill Musa. He goes a step further.
		
01:40:58 --> 01:41:00
			Forget about killing his people, let's kill Musa,
		
01:41:00 --> 01:41:02
			because deep down there's something.
		
01:41:02 --> 01:41:03
			And,
		
01:41:04 --> 01:41:06
			he's being reminded to the Ahazab.
		
01:41:06 --> 01:41:09
			The Ahazab, meaning the groups before, the people
		
01:41:09 --> 01:41:11
			of 'Ad, and Tamut, and Nuh, and what
		
01:41:11 --> 01:41:12
			happened to them. So
		
01:41:13 --> 01:41:15
			as you travel through the Mecca and verses,
		
01:41:15 --> 01:41:18
			you see it's full of false narratives being
		
01:41:18 --> 01:41:18
			propagated.
		
01:41:19 --> 01:41:21
			And not only with regards to the message,
		
01:41:22 --> 01:41:23
			but also with regards to the messenger, this
		
01:41:23 --> 01:41:24
			character assassination,
		
01:41:25 --> 01:41:27
			that he's a magician, that he's a sorcerer,
		
01:41:27 --> 01:41:29
			that, you know, he's come only to disunite,
		
01:41:29 --> 01:41:31
			and so on and so forth. It's it's
		
01:41:31 --> 01:41:34
			it's like a constant throughout the Meccan verses.
		
01:41:35 --> 01:41:38
			It's this false narrative, and the Quran is
		
01:41:38 --> 01:41:39
			at the forefront.
		
01:41:40 --> 01:41:42
			Right? It's it's on the front lines,
		
01:41:43 --> 01:41:45
			pushing back the false narrative.
		
01:41:45 --> 01:41:48
			And in it, subhanAllah, the prophet of Allah
		
01:41:48 --> 01:41:51
			is establishing the Messenger and settling his own
		
01:41:51 --> 01:41:54
			human nature. Because imagine year after year, month
		
01:41:54 --> 01:41:56
			after month, it's a long period of time,
		
01:41:56 --> 01:41:58
			you're constantly hearing this narrative against you.
		
01:41:59 --> 01:42:01
			Right? It can happen that Shaytan
		
01:42:02 --> 01:42:04
			uses it as a tool, and Shaytan's running
		
01:42:04 --> 01:42:06
			his attacks as well. A time comes when
		
01:42:06 --> 01:42:08
			you sit back and you start doubting, thinking
		
01:42:08 --> 01:42:10
			that, SubhanAllah, where am I going with this?
		
01:42:10 --> 01:42:12
			Right? And Allah is revealing what happened to
		
01:42:12 --> 01:42:14
			Musa and the time that it took, and
		
01:42:14 --> 01:42:17
			everything has a plan. And Allah is, all
		
01:42:17 --> 01:42:18
			able,
		
01:42:19 --> 01:42:22
			upon all able, and everything will be when
		
01:42:22 --> 01:42:24
			Allah decrees them to be, and everything has
		
01:42:24 --> 01:42:26
			its appointed time. You look at Surat al
		
01:42:26 --> 01:42:28
			Zumr, you know, all this is happening, and
		
01:42:28 --> 01:42:29
			at the end, Allah
		
01:42:30 --> 01:42:30
			says,
		
01:42:32 --> 01:42:33
			And now Allah takes us all the way
		
01:42:33 --> 01:42:35
			to the day of Qiyamah, and they'll be
		
01:42:35 --> 01:42:37
			driven in groups to the hellfire. And when
		
01:42:37 --> 01:42:39
			they get there, the gatekeepers will say, but
		
01:42:39 --> 01:42:41
			didn't the messengers come to you with the
		
01:42:41 --> 01:42:42
			message?
		
01:42:42 --> 01:42:44
			Didn't the right narrative come to you?
		
01:42:45 --> 01:42:47
			But it'll be too late. They'll say, bala,
		
01:42:47 --> 01:42:48
			but it's too late.
		
01:42:49 --> 01:42:50
			Right?
		
01:42:50 --> 01:42:51
			Because
		
01:42:52 --> 01:42:54
			when the right narrative came, you pushed it
		
01:42:54 --> 01:42:55
			back with the 4th narrative, or you tried
		
01:42:55 --> 01:42:57
			to. You attempted to. That's what you spend
		
01:42:57 --> 01:42:58
			your time doing. But as with the people
		
01:42:58 --> 01:42:59
			of Jannah,
		
01:43:00 --> 01:43:03
			the people who adopted the right narrative, who
		
01:43:03 --> 01:43:05
			supported the right narrative, who were patient in
		
01:43:05 --> 01:43:07
			light of the false narrative being spread,
		
01:43:07 --> 01:43:09
			what does what does Allah say? They will
		
01:43:09 --> 01:43:11
			be driven to paradise in groups.
		
01:43:12 --> 01:43:12
			And, subhanAllah,
		
01:43:14 --> 01:43:16
			there's a subtlety, because Allah says,
		
01:43:16 --> 01:43:18
			about the people of Jannam,
		
01:43:18 --> 01:43:20
			that they will be driven in groups to
		
01:43:20 --> 01:43:22
			the doors of Jannam and find it shut.
		
01:43:22 --> 01:43:25
			I imagine when you're driven with such ferociousness,
		
01:43:27 --> 01:43:28
			right? And
		
01:43:28 --> 01:43:30
			you're filled with fear because you've just also
		
01:43:30 --> 01:43:32
			finished your standing in front of Allah, and
		
01:43:32 --> 01:43:34
			the driving is fear. It's ferocious.
		
01:43:35 --> 01:43:37
			And then you know what's to what's to
		
01:43:37 --> 01:43:39
			come is severe. When you get there, the
		
01:43:39 --> 01:43:40
			doors are shut.
		
01:43:41 --> 01:43:42
			It's not one of those things where you
		
01:43:42 --> 01:43:44
			just you know, it just happens before you
		
01:43:44 --> 01:43:44
			can even
		
01:43:45 --> 01:43:48
			contemplate what's going on. You're in it. No.
		
01:43:48 --> 01:43:50
			You get a moment where you're stuck,
		
01:43:50 --> 01:43:52
			and now you can anticipate what's to come.
		
01:43:52 --> 01:43:54
			Muhammad. Interpretation. Yes. When it comes to the
		
01:43:54 --> 01:43:57
			people of Jannah, subhanallah, Allah adds wow. Just
		
01:43:57 --> 01:43:58
			one
		
01:43:58 --> 01:43:58
			letter.
		
01:43:59 --> 01:44:01
			Wow. Just wow. One letter, Subhanallah. And that
		
01:44:01 --> 01:44:03
			creates a world of difference in the meaning
		
01:44:03 --> 01:44:06
			that Allah will honor the people who support
		
01:44:06 --> 01:44:07
			the right narrative
		
01:44:08 --> 01:44:10
			by experiencing Jannah before Jannah.
		
01:44:12 --> 01:44:13
			That you will be driven to Jannah,
		
01:44:14 --> 01:44:17
			and you won't even have to get there
		
01:44:17 --> 01:44:19
			and say, ah, subhanAllah, the doors are closed.
		
01:44:19 --> 01:44:21
			When is it gonna open? That you will
		
01:44:21 --> 01:44:23
			experience Jannah before Jannah. Jannah. You will get
		
01:44:23 --> 01:44:24
			there, and Jannah will welcome you. It will
		
01:44:24 --> 01:44:26
			be all ready for you, SubhanAllah.
		
01:44:27 --> 01:44:29
			So no doubt, this is the discourse,
		
01:44:30 --> 01:44:32
			you know, the Qur'anic discourse
		
01:44:32 --> 01:44:36
			teaching us about mankind since ever. It's always
		
01:44:36 --> 01:44:39
			been a false narrative versus a true narrative.
		
01:44:39 --> 01:44:42
			And at times, the false narrative was louder
		
01:44:42 --> 01:44:44
			than the true narrative. But
		
01:44:44 --> 01:44:46
			all the time, with consistency,
		
01:44:47 --> 01:44:48
			the true narrative
		
01:44:48 --> 01:44:50
			overcame the false narrative.
		
01:44:50 --> 01:44:52
			So as we move into different eras, it's
		
01:44:52 --> 01:44:54
			the same story, just different actors.
		
01:44:55 --> 01:44:58
			Mhmm. In terms of even the Quran,
		
01:44:58 --> 01:44:59
			talking about the Hawamim.
		
01:45:00 --> 01:45:02
			I can't remember who it was. 1 of
		
01:45:02 --> 01:45:03
			the Mushrikeen, the leaders of the Mushrikeen,
		
01:45:04 --> 01:45:06
			he was, you know, sent to the prophet
		
01:45:07 --> 01:45:09
			Abu Wali, there was a Wa'ilah.
		
01:45:11 --> 01:45:12
			The name escapes me.
		
01:45:13 --> 01:45:14
			And he was being, you know, he was
		
01:45:14 --> 01:45:16
			interrogating the prophet being kind of rude, and
		
01:45:16 --> 01:45:18
			they were you know, his his team was
		
01:45:18 --> 01:45:21
			kind of, like, you know, egging him on.
		
01:45:21 --> 01:45:22
			And then they saw him,
		
01:45:22 --> 01:45:25
			you know, his whole demeanor change. They couldn't
		
01:45:25 --> 01:45:27
			hear what the prophet was saying to him.
		
01:45:27 --> 01:45:28
			Yeah. And,
		
01:45:29 --> 01:45:31
			it turns out he was reciting just simple
		
01:45:31 --> 01:45:34
			his response was simply reciting the first 13
		
01:45:34 --> 01:45:35
			ayat of Surah Fosilat.
		
01:45:35 --> 01:45:38
			Yes. Yes. I think it's a Akbar. Okay.
		
01:45:39 --> 01:45:40
			Abouwidd?
		
01:45:41 --> 01:45:43
			I am yeah. I know I know the
		
01:45:43 --> 01:45:45
			the the the context that you're sharing. And,
		
01:45:45 --> 01:45:47
			also, when he went back to the Quraysh,
		
01:45:49 --> 01:45:51
			he claimed that I didn't understand if anything
		
01:45:51 --> 01:45:53
			that he was saying except the part of
		
01:45:53 --> 01:45:56
			the punishment that will come. Saika. That there's
		
01:45:56 --> 01:45:57
			gonna be the Saika.
		
01:45:58 --> 01:45:59
			Right? There's gonna be the to to to
		
01:45:59 --> 01:46:00
			cover the mouth of the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
		
01:46:00 --> 01:46:00
			wa sallam.
		
01:46:02 --> 01:46:04
			Like, you know, he said that that's enough.
		
01:46:04 --> 01:46:06
			That's enough. No. Don't recite anymore. Yeah. So
		
01:46:06 --> 01:46:08
			so, you know, that that's the lesson. Right?
		
01:46:08 --> 01:46:09
			Same same,
		
01:46:10 --> 01:46:10
			message,
		
01:46:11 --> 01:46:13
			same story, different actors, and the lesson's the
		
01:46:13 --> 01:46:14
			same,
		
01:46:14 --> 01:46:15
			that
		
01:46:16 --> 01:46:18
			across all eras, even those who stand on
		
01:46:18 --> 01:46:21
			the side of the false narrative, deep down,
		
01:46:21 --> 01:46:22
			they know
		
01:46:22 --> 01:46:24
			that it's false. Deep deep down, they have
		
01:46:24 --> 01:46:26
			moments. If they don't know, at least they've
		
01:46:26 --> 01:46:26
			had moments,
		
01:46:27 --> 01:46:28
			but they choose to
		
01:46:29 --> 01:46:31
			use arrogance to treat that moment
		
01:46:32 --> 01:46:33
			as opposed to being objective.
		
01:46:33 --> 01:46:34
			So,
		
01:46:35 --> 01:46:37
			there's no profit to come. This has to
		
01:46:37 --> 01:46:38
			keep on reminding,
		
01:46:39 --> 01:46:40
			keep on standing,
		
01:46:40 --> 01:46:41
			keep on delivering,
		
01:46:41 --> 01:46:42
			keep on
		
01:46:42 --> 01:46:44
			pushing, keep on, you know,
		
01:46:45 --> 01:46:47
			being in that space because there's no solution
		
01:46:47 --> 01:46:49
			for humanity except the collective effort of the
		
01:46:49 --> 01:46:50
			Ummah Muhammad
		
01:46:51 --> 01:46:52
			So just, you know, if we can circle
		
01:46:52 --> 01:46:54
			it back to the question that Tariq asked,
		
01:46:54 --> 01:46:56
			why is the work of,
		
01:46:56 --> 01:46:57
			Islam 21 c,
		
01:46:58 --> 01:47:00
			important it's important for for for for many
		
01:47:00 --> 01:47:01
			reasons for many reasons.
		
01:47:02 --> 01:47:03
			The prophet,
		
01:47:05 --> 01:47:06
			he
		
01:47:06 --> 01:47:07
			did this work,
		
01:47:08 --> 01:47:09
			and that's how we really have to see
		
01:47:09 --> 01:47:10
			it. Yes. Okay. We might be doing it
		
01:47:10 --> 01:47:12
			a different way, but he actually did this
		
01:47:12 --> 01:47:13
			work,
		
01:47:14 --> 01:47:16
			just as he helped the poor and the
		
01:47:16 --> 01:47:18
			needy, and he supported the destitute, and he
		
01:47:18 --> 01:47:19
			stood with the widows,
		
01:47:20 --> 01:47:22
			and he preached Islam. He did dua, and
		
01:47:22 --> 01:47:24
			he taught the new Muslims. So all the
		
01:47:24 --> 01:47:25
			work of the prophet
		
01:47:25 --> 01:47:27
			all these projects that we have
		
01:47:28 --> 01:47:31
			that we call charitable projects that have been
		
01:47:31 --> 01:47:32
			established as institutions.
		
01:47:34 --> 01:47:37
			Right? They really are established to do the
		
01:47:37 --> 01:47:38
			work of the prophet
		
01:47:39 --> 01:47:40
			anyone sees from
		
01:47:41 --> 01:47:43
			there. Shaikh, you reminded me of when when
		
01:47:43 --> 01:47:45
			we did when we're doing, one of our
		
01:47:45 --> 01:47:46
			tours with you,
		
01:47:47 --> 01:47:48
			we're driving around the country
		
01:47:49 --> 01:47:51
			with Sheikh Sajid Omar on, I think part
		
01:47:51 --> 01:47:52
			of the, the oil campaign.
		
01:47:53 --> 01:47:54
			Yeah. So I I remember mentioning.
		
01:47:57 --> 01:47:57
			No. No.
		
01:47:58 --> 01:48:00
			What's what's the fruit? What's the consequences of
		
01:48:00 --> 01:48:03
			Hatmih Nabuwad? We all talk about Hatmih Nabuwad
		
01:48:03 --> 01:48:05
			that the prophet is the final messenger.
		
01:48:05 --> 01:48:07
			And the penny dropped. It's something we all
		
01:48:07 --> 01:48:09
			know intuitively but when you mention it once
		
01:48:09 --> 01:48:11
			and then I had the benefit of hearing
		
01:48:11 --> 01:48:12
			it like 10 times because we're on the
		
01:48:12 --> 01:48:13
			same tour.
		
01:48:14 --> 01:48:16
			It really kind of drummed into me that
		
01:48:16 --> 01:48:19
			you you know the point of the prophet
		
01:48:19 --> 01:48:21
			being the last and final messenger isn't just
		
01:48:21 --> 01:48:23
			a theoretical thing that you can debate about.
		
01:48:24 --> 01:48:25
			The fruit of it is,
		
01:48:26 --> 01:48:28
			hey, guess what? There's no more profits coming.
		
01:48:29 --> 01:48:32
			This job is inherited by this entire Ummah
		
01:48:32 --> 01:48:32
			now.
		
01:48:33 --> 01:48:35
			And that really kind of stuck in my
		
01:48:35 --> 01:48:36
			head. I always repeat that to brothers and
		
01:48:36 --> 01:48:39
			sisters that 100%. 100%. Everyone needs to feel
		
01:48:40 --> 01:48:41
			deployed
		
01:48:41 --> 01:48:43
			by the Lord of the Wells. Everyone.
		
01:48:45 --> 01:48:46
			Irrespective of your ability.
		
01:48:47 --> 01:48:50
			Right? So but you have to feel deployed.
		
01:48:50 --> 01:48:53
			And everyone who's deployed has to return back
		
01:48:53 --> 01:48:55
			to base. When you get back to base,
		
01:48:55 --> 01:48:56
			you will be questioned.
		
01:48:57 --> 01:48:59
			That's the reality. It's it comes with the
		
01:48:59 --> 01:49:01
			stripes. So we're all deployed.
		
01:49:01 --> 01:49:03
			Yeah. I mean, and we've been stationed.
		
01:49:03 --> 01:49:06
			And Islam shouldn't be attacked from our station.
		
01:49:06 --> 01:49:09
			So we need to feel that responsibility. That's
		
01:49:09 --> 01:49:10
			what it is. You know, you we have
		
01:49:10 --> 01:49:12
			to feel it. We have to feel it.
		
01:49:13 --> 01:49:15
			And, even this whole idea of Islam and
		
01:49:15 --> 01:49:18
			spreading Islam and its making its mercy and
		
01:49:18 --> 01:49:20
			its justice and its wisdom and its transformative
		
01:49:20 --> 01:49:22
			benefit be felt by the wider,
		
01:49:23 --> 01:49:26
			globe, the wider communities of the globe.
		
01:49:26 --> 01:49:29
			It can't be just, you know,
		
01:49:30 --> 01:49:32
			words that we string together.
		
01:49:32 --> 01:49:34
			It can't be an idea that makes us
		
01:49:34 --> 01:49:37
			feel good and something that's at the back
		
01:49:37 --> 01:49:39
			of our mind. And, you know, I have
		
01:49:39 --> 01:49:41
			thousands of things to do.
		
01:49:41 --> 01:49:42
			Yeah, when I'm done with that, then there's
		
01:49:42 --> 01:49:44
			this no. No. No. No. It's it's then
		
01:49:44 --> 01:49:48
			wishful thinking. It's wishful thinking. You know, if
		
01:49:48 --> 01:49:49
			if we really want this
		
01:49:50 --> 01:49:51
			izzah
		
01:49:51 --> 01:49:53
			to come to the ummah,
		
01:49:54 --> 01:49:55
			then it has to be at the forefront
		
01:49:55 --> 01:49:57
			of our minds and our hearts and our
		
01:49:57 --> 01:49:57
			thoughts.
		
01:49:58 --> 01:50:00
			We wake up thinking about it. We go
		
01:50:00 --> 01:50:01
			to sleep thinking about it. That is the
		
01:50:01 --> 01:50:03
			mandate. But if we're gonna live our lives
		
01:50:03 --> 01:50:07
			about me, myself, I, my kids, my bills,
		
01:50:07 --> 01:50:08
			their schools, which school they're gonna go to,
		
01:50:08 --> 01:50:10
			the house I wanna buy,
		
01:50:10 --> 01:50:12
			and you know, my job, my promotion.
		
01:50:12 --> 01:50:15
			And then after all of that, and oh
		
01:50:15 --> 01:50:17
			yes, You know, Islam and Islam, they're spreading.
		
01:50:18 --> 01:50:20
			Then this is wishful thinking. We're not gonna
		
01:50:20 --> 01:50:21
			we're not gonna do we we know
		
01:50:22 --> 01:50:23
			we're not serious,
		
01:50:24 --> 01:50:25
			about this.
		
01:50:26 --> 01:50:26
			You know?
		
01:50:27 --> 01:50:29
			When you when you, you know, when you
		
01:50:29 --> 01:50:29
			travel
		
01:50:29 --> 01:50:31
			and you sit in this big plane, 4
		
01:50:31 --> 01:50:33
			engines, and it's on the runway,
		
01:50:34 --> 01:50:35
			it it screams,
		
01:50:37 --> 01:50:40
			right, to get it into the air. And
		
01:50:40 --> 01:50:40
			it's screaming
		
01:50:41 --> 01:50:44
			as it gets to 40,000 feet. When it
		
01:50:44 --> 01:50:46
			gets to 40,000 feet, it's settled. You can
		
01:50:46 --> 01:50:48
			even switch off 2 engines. You hardly hear
		
01:50:48 --> 01:50:50
			the engines. It's moving.
		
01:50:50 --> 01:50:51
			Right? So this is the same thing. If
		
01:50:51 --> 01:50:54
			you wanna get this idea off the ground,
		
01:50:54 --> 01:50:57
			you know, of Islam and Rizah and turning
		
01:50:57 --> 01:50:58
			on and and and, you know, the the
		
01:50:58 --> 01:51:00
			the honor of Islam being felt by the
		
01:51:00 --> 01:51:02
			people of the wider globe, then we need
		
01:51:02 --> 01:51:03
			screaming engines.
		
01:51:04 --> 01:51:05
			People need to we we don't need to
		
01:51:05 --> 01:51:07
			be asking. People need to be coming forth
		
01:51:08 --> 01:51:10
			and saying, listen, guys. You're doing a great
		
01:51:10 --> 01:51:12
			job. This is something that you can do,
		
01:51:12 --> 01:51:13
			I cannot do, but I want to support
		
01:51:13 --> 01:51:15
			you doing it. Keep at it, and here
		
01:51:15 --> 01:51:17
			you go. That's the idea. That we trade
		
01:51:17 --> 01:51:19
			with Allah. We show Allah that in the
		
01:51:19 --> 01:51:22
			front of our minds and hearts, we are
		
01:51:22 --> 01:51:23
			true
		
01:51:23 --> 01:51:26
			to our la ilaha illa Muhammadu Rasoolallah covenant
		
01:51:26 --> 01:51:28
			with Him. That we understand we deployed,
		
01:51:28 --> 01:51:29
			and we haven't forgotten.
		
01:51:31 --> 01:51:33
			So if anything, you know, these projects, they're
		
01:51:33 --> 01:51:35
			a mercy to the community because,
		
01:51:36 --> 01:51:38
			it's just easier. Right? Just donate,
		
01:51:39 --> 01:51:41
			and, don't think of it as a donation.
		
01:51:41 --> 01:51:42
			Think of it as an investment. I always
		
01:51:42 --> 01:51:44
			say this, guys, because donate has a negative
		
01:51:44 --> 01:51:44
			consequence.
		
01:51:45 --> 01:51:46
			Mhmm. We feel like, you know, we've given
		
01:51:46 --> 01:51:49
			up a piece of ourselves. No. You're investing.
		
01:51:49 --> 01:51:51
			Go trade with Allah. Go trade with Allah.
		
01:51:51 --> 01:51:53
			And no amount is small, alhamdulillah.
		
01:51:53 --> 01:51:55
			As long as the project's reputable, the people
		
01:51:55 --> 01:51:56
			are reputable.
		
01:51:57 --> 01:51:58
			And this trust extended
		
01:51:59 --> 01:52:00
			that you're not throwing your money down a
		
01:52:00 --> 01:52:02
			pit, but you actually it's gonna create an
		
01:52:02 --> 01:52:03
			impact.
		
01:52:05 --> 01:52:07
			Trade with Allah through the project.
		
01:52:07 --> 01:52:09
			And feel free to ask the project for
		
01:52:09 --> 01:52:10
			an impact report. And I know it's not
		
01:52:10 --> 01:52:13
			21. See, every, 12 months, they release an
		
01:52:13 --> 01:52:15
			impact report to show, you know, what impact
		
01:52:15 --> 01:52:17
			has been created, how the needle has sort
		
01:52:17 --> 01:52:20
			of moved up in terms of the mission
		
01:52:20 --> 01:52:21
			of the project,
		
01:52:21 --> 01:52:22
			and,
		
01:52:22 --> 01:52:23
			what
		
01:52:24 --> 01:52:24
			contribution,
		
01:52:25 --> 01:52:28
			a person's investment had towards that need needle
		
01:52:28 --> 01:52:29
			going up.
		
01:52:31 --> 01:52:33
			Mhmm. Are you okay?
		
01:52:33 --> 01:52:35
			If you look like you've been really impacted
		
01:52:35 --> 01:52:37
			by what the sheikh is saying. No.
		
01:52:38 --> 01:52:40
			It's very beneficial. And, Sheik, one of the
		
01:52:40 --> 01:52:42
			things when you mention these things that I
		
01:52:42 --> 01:52:42
			always think about
		
01:52:43 --> 01:52:45
			is, you know, being involved in different organizations,
		
01:52:45 --> 01:52:48
			you come to realize that there are literally
		
01:52:48 --> 01:52:50
			100, if not thousands, of organizations out there
		
01:52:50 --> 01:52:51
			doing
		
01:52:51 --> 01:52:55
			phenomenal work. But but primarily humanitarian work seems
		
01:52:55 --> 01:52:57
			to be to be what what we're most
		
01:52:57 --> 01:52:58
			attracted to as a community.
		
01:52:59 --> 01:52:59
			And,
		
01:53:00 --> 01:53:02
			one of the conversations we were having earlier,
		
01:53:02 --> 01:53:04
			myself and Saman, was this idea that if
		
01:53:04 --> 01:53:05
			we were to take, then we call it
		
01:53:05 --> 01:53:06
			the crime baby effect. If you were to
		
01:53:06 --> 01:53:08
			show a starving baby suffering,
		
01:53:09 --> 01:53:10
			that naturally would predisposition
		
01:53:11 --> 01:53:11
			to,
		
01:53:12 --> 01:53:14
			you know, when you see suffering, there's something
		
01:53:14 --> 01:53:16
			inside you that wants to respond. But as
		
01:53:16 --> 01:53:17
			a community,
		
01:53:17 --> 01:53:20
			we need to see more, you know, more
		
01:53:21 --> 01:53:23
			more balance between supporting
		
01:53:24 --> 01:53:27
			the the urgent versus supporting
		
01:53:27 --> 01:53:28
			the the important.
		
01:53:29 --> 01:53:31
			And there's always gonna be urgent needs. There's
		
01:53:31 --> 01:53:32
			always gonna be humanitarian crises.
		
01:53:33 --> 01:53:35
			There's always gonna be, you know, a flood
		
01:53:35 --> 01:53:38
			here, a catastrophe there, and we need to
		
01:53:38 --> 01:53:39
			respond and help as much as we can.
		
01:53:39 --> 01:53:42
			But there is a disproportionate amount of institutes
		
01:53:43 --> 01:53:45
			like Islam 21c and others
		
01:53:46 --> 01:53:47
			that are are fighting
		
01:53:48 --> 01:53:50
			what some might say is is the greater
		
01:53:50 --> 01:53:52
			battle, the more strategic battle, the more long
		
01:53:52 --> 01:53:54
			term battle. Mhmm. And I just wanted to
		
01:53:54 --> 01:53:57
			get your thoughts on this. Yeah. Absolutely. Look.
		
01:53:57 --> 01:53:59
			You always gonna have proactive
		
01:54:00 --> 01:54:01
			institutions,
		
01:54:02 --> 01:54:03
			but you need proactive institutions
		
01:54:04 --> 01:54:04
			as well.
		
01:54:09 --> 01:54:11
			That's just the the reality. And if we're
		
01:54:11 --> 01:54:13
			always gonna focus on reaction, reaction, reaction, then
		
01:54:13 --> 01:54:15
			we're putting ourselves in a vortex because,
		
01:54:19 --> 01:54:20
			reacting to things is expensive.
		
01:54:21 --> 01:54:23
			It's it's it's resource intensive,
		
01:54:23 --> 01:54:25
			and it's also expensive.
		
01:54:25 --> 01:54:27
			So time needs to come when equilibrium
		
01:54:27 --> 01:54:29
			sort of is felt. It might take a
		
01:54:29 --> 01:54:30
			century for it to happen, but we need
		
01:54:30 --> 01:54:33
			start. That process needs to start. The process
		
01:54:33 --> 01:54:34
			needs to start. So we need to have
		
01:54:34 --> 01:54:36
			a vision with our our charitable
		
01:54:36 --> 01:54:37
			endeavors as well.
		
01:54:38 --> 01:54:39
			Now it should be,
		
01:54:40 --> 01:54:42
			that, you know, we spend our money for
		
01:54:42 --> 01:54:43
			the sake of Allah
		
01:54:43 --> 01:54:44
			with a vision,
		
01:54:45 --> 01:54:47
			and we're not driven purely by emotion.
		
01:54:47 --> 01:54:49
			We're understanding the landscape.
		
01:54:49 --> 01:54:50
			We're understanding
		
01:54:51 --> 01:54:53
			our duty, the things we spoke about just
		
01:54:53 --> 01:54:56
			now, and what's important. And make sure that
		
01:54:56 --> 01:54:58
			we as we diversify
		
01:54:58 --> 01:54:59
			our wealthy investment
		
01:55:00 --> 01:55:03
			by spreading our money across a basket
		
01:55:04 --> 01:55:05
			of business opportunity.
		
01:55:06 --> 01:55:07
			We do the same
		
01:55:08 --> 01:55:10
			when we invest with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
		
01:55:11 --> 01:55:13
			So we have portions for reaction reactive projects,
		
01:55:13 --> 01:55:15
			and we have portion for the proactive,
		
01:55:16 --> 01:55:17
			projects.
		
01:55:17 --> 01:55:18
			Yeah.
		
01:55:18 --> 01:55:20
			Yeah. Exactly. Well, brothers and sisters, you had
		
01:55:20 --> 01:55:21
			it there from Sheikh Sajid,
		
01:55:22 --> 01:55:25
			himself. So according on you to a portion
		
01:55:25 --> 01:55:26
			some of those
		
01:55:27 --> 01:55:28
			some of those means
		
01:55:28 --> 01:55:30
			that you have available to you towards Islam
		
01:55:30 --> 01:55:33
			21 c. Our target tonight is 5,000. We'll
		
01:55:33 --> 01:55:34
			get an update shortly. I know we went
		
01:55:34 --> 01:55:36
			past the 1,000 mark quite a while
		
01:55:36 --> 01:55:39
			ago. But we are coming towards an end
		
01:55:39 --> 01:55:39
			of
		
01:55:40 --> 01:55:42
			our of our presentation, of our webinar.
		
01:55:42 --> 01:55:45
			But we're We've got some, takmils outstanding.
		
01:55:46 --> 01:55:48
			Oh, we'll get to those inshallah. But
		
01:55:48 --> 01:55:50
			the the ones that Sheikh has approved of
		
01:55:50 --> 01:55:51
			course, right?
		
01:55:51 --> 01:55:53
			But brothers and sisters, inshallah, for those still
		
01:55:53 --> 01:55:55
			watching, for those who are listening, remember we
		
01:55:55 --> 01:55:58
			are calling on 50 people, right,
		
01:55:58 --> 01:56:01
			to give a £100 each up. We we
		
01:56:01 --> 01:56:03
			got to 10 of those. We're on 40
		
01:56:03 --> 01:56:05
			last. We'll get a quick update
		
01:56:05 --> 01:56:07
			to find out how many more of those
		
01:56:07 --> 01:56:08
			that we need.
		
01:56:09 --> 01:56:09
			We've had £500
		
01:56:10 --> 01:56:12
			donations, £100 donations, £50 donations,
		
01:56:13 --> 01:56:16
			and this blessed month Ramadan with the days
		
01:56:16 --> 01:56:18
			that are very quickly departing, we are in
		
01:56:18 --> 01:56:19
			a odd night where we still have an
		
01:56:19 --> 01:56:20
			opportunity inshallah.
		
01:56:22 --> 01:56:23
			We are currently at
		
01:56:24 --> 01:56:24
			1,100
		
01:56:25 --> 01:56:28
			of our 5,000 target. So we've slowed down
		
01:56:28 --> 01:56:29
			a little bit, brothers and sisters, in the
		
01:56:29 --> 01:56:30
			last 30 minutes.

01:58:51 --> 01:58:53
			We got a call going on. Let's go
		
01:58:53 --> 01:58:54

01:58:56 --> 01:58:58
			bit. Inshallah. How many people do we have
		
01:58:58 --> 01:58:59

01:59:03 --> 01:59:05
			people watching. Well, that's peak. What's the peak?
		
01:59:06 --> 01:59:07
			Live at the moment.
		
01:59:10 --> 01:59:12
			So, hey, brothers and sisters. Let's see who
		
01:59:12 --> 01:59:14
			we'd call them. Someone's messaging saying, they were
		
01:59:14 --> 01:59:17
			calling, but, couldn't answer because sheikh was speaking.
		
01:59:18 --> 01:59:19
			So they're just saying I'm doing I'm making
		
01:59:19 --> 01:59:20

02:01:45 --> 02:01:46
			Okay.
		
02:01:47 --> 02:01:50
			Fair enough. Just just just find something better
		
02:01:50 --> 02:01:51
			for tomorrow. Yes? Okay.
		
02:01:52 --> 02:01:54
			That's gonna be able to has contribution as
		
02:01:54 --> 02:01:56
			well. A 100 pound plus Yeah.
		
02:01:57 --> 02:01:59
			£100 plus a new sound effect.
		
02:02:00 --> 02:02:00
			Yeah.
		
02:02:02 --> 02:02:04
			No. Let me tell you something. Yeah. Yeah.
		
02:02:04 --> 02:02:04
			Let me tell you something.
		
02:02:06 --> 02:02:08
			You know, I'm actually fundraising for. Yeah. Everything
		
02:02:08 --> 02:02:10
			else. No. This is only for Raza, and
		
02:02:10 --> 02:02:11
			that's it. Yeah.
		
02:02:12 --> 02:02:13
			But then I thought, you know what it
		
02:02:13 --> 02:02:14
			is?
		
02:02:15 --> 02:02:17
			Raza and the Philistines don't only need
		
02:02:26 --> 02:02:28
			for 6 months because they've been going to
		
02:02:28 --> 02:02:30
			onshore all the time. But for this to
		
02:02:30 --> 02:02:32
			sustain for 6 months on, there has to
		
02:02:32 --> 02:02:33
			be
		
02:02:34 --> 02:02:38
			a a united effort across multiple fronts, across
		
02:02:38 --> 02:02:39
			multiple media and Muslim organizations
		
02:02:40 --> 02:02:42
			that are keeping this cause alive. Otherwise,
		
02:02:43 --> 02:02:45
			for 2 weeks, headline news, and it's gonna
		
02:02:45 --> 02:02:47
			go. That's where everyone put. Yeah? Why is
		
02:02:47 --> 02:02:48
			it still alive?
		
02:02:48 --> 02:02:50
			Is organizations like keeping
		
02:02:50 --> 02:02:52
			it as well? Like, The work might seem
		
02:02:52 --> 02:02:54
			like, oh, you know, they just this small
		
02:02:54 --> 02:02:56
			website, whatever it may be, relatively speaking, compared
		
02:02:56 --> 02:02:58
			to BBC or CNN. Yeah? It's not mainstream
		
02:02:58 --> 02:03:00
			media. Yeah? But what do we need to
		
02:03:00 --> 02:03:02
			case together to mainstream media so that the
		
02:03:02 --> 02:03:04
			narrative stays alive, so the Dawah stays alive?
		
02:03:04 --> 02:03:05
			Yeah? Yeah.
		
02:03:06 --> 02:03:08
			Because you see, we are a dean of
		
02:03:08 --> 02:03:11
			believers, not just followers. Yeah? We need believers.
		
02:03:11 --> 02:03:13
			That means we need a lot of narratives
		
02:03:13 --> 02:03:15
			that needs to go out. Yeah? So I
		
02:03:15 --> 02:03:16
			thought, you know what it is? It's not
		
02:03:16 --> 02:03:18
			only going to be Raza. This is what
		
02:03:18 --> 02:03:20
			Gaza needs to do right now from us.
		
02:03:21 --> 02:03:23
			Gaza has told us as well. Gaza's,
		
02:03:24 --> 02:03:27
			2,000,000 people have ignited 2,000,000,000 people
		
02:03:27 --> 02:03:29
			you know, in Gaza. Yeah. Subhanallah.
		
02:03:30 --> 02:03:32
			No. I would say they've ignited the world.
		
02:03:32 --> 02:03:34
			Exactly. Exactly. And the reason why
		
02:03:35 --> 02:03:37
			the narrative is different this year this time,
		
02:03:37 --> 02:03:39
			they've been they've been, you know, mowing the
		
02:03:39 --> 02:03:40
			lawn, so to speak.
		
02:03:41 --> 02:03:43
			Every few years they go in and attack,
		
02:03:43 --> 02:03:43
			Gaza.
		
02:03:44 --> 02:03:44
			But
		
02:03:45 --> 02:03:47
			there are so many people,
		
02:03:47 --> 02:03:49
			millions, if not billions of people
		
02:03:49 --> 02:03:51
			just sick and tired and and and fighting
		
02:03:51 --> 02:03:53
			back when it comes to the the media
		
02:03:53 --> 02:03:55
			and when it comes to the narratives. We
		
02:03:55 --> 02:03:57
			have numbers, brothers and sisters, and put something
		
02:03:57 --> 02:03:59
			out about Gaza. We have the ability.
		
02:04:00 --> 02:04:03
			We don't have the the big, institutions yet,
		
02:04:03 --> 02:04:05
			but we have manpower. We have millions and
		
02:04:05 --> 02:04:07
			millions of brothers and sisters and friends, non
		
02:04:07 --> 02:04:09
			Muslim friends, that when they see the truth,
		
02:04:09 --> 02:04:11
			they share it. When they see the falsehood
		
02:04:12 --> 02:04:14
			you know, normally, I say don't focus on
		
02:04:15 --> 02:04:17
			propaganda. Don't look at it online because it
		
02:04:17 --> 02:04:19
			will get shown to more people. But now
		
02:04:19 --> 02:04:21
			when you see any, any piece of from,
		
02:04:22 --> 02:04:25
			you know, Israeli spokespeople or whatever, you see
		
02:04:25 --> 02:04:27
			underneath them, 100 of people
		
02:04:27 --> 02:04:29
			taking them out, 100 of people taking them,
		
02:04:29 --> 02:04:31
			make out of them, 100 of people,
		
02:04:32 --> 02:04:35
			fact checking. Even x now has these community,
		
02:04:35 --> 02:04:36
			what they call,
		
02:04:36 --> 02:04:39
			community something, current when when people are correcting
		
02:04:40 --> 02:04:42
			the all the false, notions. So
		
02:04:42 --> 02:04:44
			we have we have we have the ability
		
02:04:44 --> 02:04:46
			as a community, as as everyone,
		
02:04:47 --> 02:04:49
			to chip in and make something too loud
		
02:04:49 --> 02:04:49
			to ignore.
		
02:04:56 --> 02:04:56
			Still there?
		
02:04:58 --> 02:05:00
			So I'm just trying to me. I'm here.
		
02:05:03 --> 02:05:03
			Yeah.
		
02:05:07 --> 02:05:08
			So, yeah, you know what it is. You
		
02:05:08 --> 02:05:10
			know what it is, You know,
		
02:05:10 --> 02:05:11
			I was just thinking,
		
02:05:13 --> 02:05:14
			no. In fact, I completely lost my hair.
		
02:05:19 --> 02:05:20
			Yeah.
		
02:05:20 --> 02:05:22
			I am. Because I'm just trying to get
		
02:05:22 --> 02:05:23
			to the next scheme because this place is
		
02:05:23 --> 02:05:25
			already full supply. You know? The Ummah is
		
02:05:25 --> 02:05:28
			so alive. Yeah? Here, in East London, we
		
02:05:28 --> 02:05:30
			have about 7 masais at 8 PM at
		
02:05:30 --> 02:05:31
			different times. Yeah?
		
02:05:32 --> 02:05:32
			And
		
02:05:33 --> 02:05:34
			all the masars are packed.
		
02:05:37 --> 02:05:39
			Mhmm. Hopefully, you can you'll probably get 2,
		
02:05:39 --> 02:05:41
			3 rows. But now it's packed. I don't
		
02:05:41 --> 02:05:43
			know if it's a that was gonna affect.
		
02:05:43 --> 02:05:44
			I don't know what it is. This is
		
02:05:44 --> 02:05:46
			packed call. Okay.
		
02:05:46 --> 02:05:49
			And everybody is doing it. They're making duas
		
02:05:49 --> 02:05:49
			for us
		
02:05:50 --> 02:05:51
			in the PM.
		
02:05:52 --> 02:05:53
			That's, that's Of course.
		
02:05:54 --> 02:05:56
			Love it, ma'am. Of course.
		
02:05:56 --> 02:05:58
			Yeah. They they all are. They all are.
		
02:05:58 --> 02:06:00
			And before they used to shout, someone used
		
02:06:00 --> 02:06:01
			to shout away. Yeah?
		
02:06:02 --> 02:06:03
			But now
		
02:06:04 --> 02:06:06
			every other masjid, yeah, is boldly, openly just
		
02:06:06 --> 02:06:08
			making as well.
		
02:06:10 --> 02:06:11
			Yeah.
		
02:06:11 --> 02:06:13
			Give him victory in this order the next.
		
02:06:13 --> 02:06:15
			You know what I mean? Well, see, this
		
02:06:15 --> 02:06:17
			this this is what Shafaetim was mentioning at
		
02:06:17 --> 02:06:19
			one of the, events we we did recently.
		
02:06:20 --> 02:06:21
			He said that,
		
02:06:21 --> 02:06:23
			you know, we're we're looking around and we're
		
02:06:23 --> 02:06:25
			seeing all this devastation and hardship and persecution
		
02:06:25 --> 02:06:28
			and horrible stuff going on. He says that,
		
02:06:29 --> 02:06:29
			you
		
02:06:30 --> 02:06:33
			know, Allah Allah is using these events worldwide,
		
02:06:33 --> 02:06:33
			these these
		
02:06:34 --> 02:06:37
			global events to show the Muslims
		
02:06:38 --> 02:06:39
			that they need to wake up. There needs
		
02:06:39 --> 02:06:41
			to be an an inner
		
02:06:41 --> 02:06:44
			revival individually and as an Ummah.
		
02:06:44 --> 02:06:46
			And that Allah is preparing us.
		
02:06:47 --> 02:06:50
			Right? Allah is using these events to prepare
		
02:06:50 --> 02:06:53
			us, to revive us, to reinvigorate us so
		
02:06:53 --> 02:06:55
			we we wake up as Muslims and realize
		
02:06:56 --> 02:06:59
			and showcase what Islam really is and showcase
		
02:06:59 --> 02:07:01
			to the world because now is the prime
		
02:07:01 --> 02:07:01
			time
		
02:07:02 --> 02:07:04
			for us to take Islam out there, show
		
02:07:04 --> 02:07:06
			Islam what show show the world what Islam
		
02:07:06 --> 02:07:08
			is because people are looking for answers.
		
02:07:08 --> 02:07:09
			You know? If you work with any dua
		
02:07:09 --> 02:07:11
			organizations, we're involved in Iyra,
		
02:07:11 --> 02:07:14
			and the difference between 10 years ago giving
		
02:07:14 --> 02:07:15
			dua and giving 10 10 years later giving
		
02:07:15 --> 02:07:17
			dua, these people are so much more receptive.
		
02:07:17 --> 02:07:20
			They're willing to take Quran. They wanna they
		
02:07:20 --> 02:07:22
			wanna read. They wanna they they they they're
		
02:07:22 --> 02:07:24
			happy. They're, you know, have sitting on a
		
02:07:24 --> 02:07:26
			table and hanging out Qurans before was a
		
02:07:26 --> 02:07:28
			you have to build up to it and
		
02:07:28 --> 02:07:30
			explain and explain now. People come up to,
		
02:07:30 --> 02:07:32
			like, really Quran free? And and they they
		
02:07:32 --> 02:07:34
			want to read it. You know, even on
		
02:07:34 --> 02:07:35
			TikTok, there was a,
		
02:07:35 --> 02:07:37
			the the hashtag Quran
		
02:07:37 --> 02:07:38
			was trending,
		
02:07:38 --> 02:07:40
			in You know what? You know what? It
		
02:07:40 --> 02:07:42
			was trending yesterday. So funny.
		
02:07:42 --> 02:07:44
			It's the phrase may Allah.
		
02:07:45 --> 02:07:47
			Oh, really? I don't know who I what
		
02:07:47 --> 02:07:50
			the logic is, how they how they, you
		
02:07:50 --> 02:07:52
			know, trend make stuff trending. I see people
		
02:07:52 --> 02:07:54
			are making so many That many people are
		
02:07:54 --> 02:07:56
			making dots. That many people are writing.
		
02:07:56 --> 02:07:58
			So may Allah people are saying may Allah
		
02:07:59 --> 02:08:00
			whatever they were saying. And then so the
		
02:08:00 --> 02:08:02
			phrase may Allah was trending.
		
02:08:03 --> 02:08:04
			Hamdulillah.
		
02:08:05 --> 02:08:06
			That's good, man.
		
02:08:07 --> 02:08:08
			Do we have, do we have any more
		
02:08:08 --> 02:08:09
			soundbites?
		
02:08:11 --> 02:08:13
			Multitasking. I know you are somebody this soundbite
		
02:08:13 --> 02:08:14
			or somebody,
		
02:08:15 --> 02:08:15
			somebody
		
02:08:23 --> 02:08:24
			can we get the
		
02:08:24 --> 02:08:27
			can we get the emotional damage sound by
		
02:08:27 --> 02:08:29
			on Salman's audio list? We'll we'll we'll try
		
02:08:29 --> 02:08:30
			and get that for tomorrow,
		
02:08:31 --> 02:08:33
			brothers and sisters. But we're gonna need some
		
02:08:33 --> 02:08:36
			serious donations for that. Shall we, shall we
		
02:08:36 --> 02:08:38
			wrap up? It says a 131 people. I
		
02:08:38 --> 02:08:40
			feel bad wrapping up now. A lot more
		
02:08:40 --> 02:08:42
			people than joining in live. But Look. I
		
02:08:42 --> 02:08:42
			I think we
		
02:08:43 --> 02:08:45
			line. Let let let's wrap up. But what
		
02:08:45 --> 02:08:46
			we can do is before we wrap up,
		
02:08:46 --> 02:08:48
			let's just get everyone. Okay?
		
02:08:48 --> 02:08:51
			130 something odd people. You know what? If
		
02:08:51 --> 02:08:54
			we can get everyone, we're asking for 100,
		
02:08:54 --> 02:08:56
			we're off asking for fifties.
		
02:08:56 --> 02:08:58
			And look, we we do want those 100
		
02:08:58 --> 02:08:59
			to come in from those 100 and odd
		
02:08:59 --> 02:09:02
			people calling, those 100 odd people watching.
		
02:09:02 --> 02:09:04
			So if you're able to do that, if
		
02:09:04 --> 02:09:06
			Allah has blessed you with the means, then
		
02:09:06 --> 02:09:08
			don't wait till the 27th night. There's an
		
02:09:08 --> 02:09:10
			odd night here. This this could be your
		
02:09:10 --> 02:09:12
			day, it's Al Qadr. So invest that £100
		
02:09:12 --> 02:09:15
			Insha'Allah. For those that don't have the capacity,
		
02:09:15 --> 02:09:18
			okay, I would say out of the 130
		
02:09:18 --> 02:09:20
			odd people, let's say 30 can give a
		
02:09:20 --> 02:09:21
			100. Okay?
		
02:09:21 --> 02:09:24
			30 can give a 100, that's 3,000 reached.
		
02:09:25 --> 02:09:26
			Okay? And if we can get the other
		
02:09:26 --> 02:09:28
			100 people to give £10,
		
02:09:29 --> 02:09:29
			okay,
		
02:09:30 --> 02:09:30
			£10,
		
02:09:31 --> 02:09:32
			that's another 1,000.
		
02:09:32 --> 02:09:34
			Yeah? That's another £1,000.
		
02:09:35 --> 02:09:37
			So if we can get everyone right now
		
02:09:37 --> 02:09:39
			as we end this call to go on
		
02:09:39 --> 02:09:40
			and just make the donation, Don't think about
		
02:09:40 --> 02:09:42
			it. I know you probably give it to
		
02:09:42 --> 02:09:44
			other places tonight and rightly so.
		
02:09:44 --> 02:09:46
			But if we can create a little movement,
		
02:09:46 --> 02:09:49
			a nice little nice little, you know, tidal
		
02:09:49 --> 02:09:50
			wave of donations towards the end of this
		
02:09:50 --> 02:09:51
			call, Insha'Allah.
		
02:09:52 --> 02:09:54
			So brothers and sisters, think that Ramadan is
		
02:09:54 --> 02:09:55
			here for you now.
		
02:09:56 --> 02:09:58
			Blessed always says to us that life's short.
		
02:09:59 --> 02:10:00
			You don't know when you're gonna die, and
		
02:10:00 --> 02:10:02
			your objective, your duty,
		
02:10:02 --> 02:10:04
			your vision should be to do as many
		
02:10:04 --> 02:10:06
			good deed in as much possible time as
		
02:10:06 --> 02:10:08
			you can. This is one of those moments,
		
02:10:08 --> 02:10:10
			brothers and sisters, where you can take the
		
02:10:10 --> 02:10:10
			opportunity
		
02:10:11 --> 02:10:14
			and give, donate, invest as Sheikh Sajid was
		
02:10:14 --> 02:10:14
			saying
		
02:10:15 --> 02:10:15
			to
		
02:10:16 --> 02:10:18
			an organization that's really, really making a big
		
02:10:18 --> 02:10:20
			difference around the world. You know, if we
		
02:10:20 --> 02:10:22
			had more time, I'd love to talk to
		
02:10:22 --> 02:10:24
			you about some of the stories I've heard
		
02:10:24 --> 02:10:25
			of how some of these articles
		
02:10:26 --> 02:10:29
			all around the world have benefited policy makers,
		
02:10:29 --> 02:10:30
			politicians,
		
02:10:30 --> 02:10:32
			you know, and as it was once said
		
02:10:32 --> 02:10:33
			to me by one of the seniors in
		
02:10:33 --> 02:10:34
			the organization,
		
02:10:34 --> 02:10:36
			in the Dao one, should I say,
		
02:10:36 --> 02:10:39
			that there's not a mover or there's maker
		
02:10:39 --> 02:10:40
			in the Daoist scene,
		
02:10:40 --> 02:10:43
			Right? Except that they are utilizing the resources
		
02:10:43 --> 02:10:45
			that Islam 21 c are putting out. So
		
02:10:45 --> 02:10:47
			brothers and sisters, support this organization,
		
02:10:48 --> 02:10:49
			support the dua, support
		
02:10:50 --> 02:10:51
			Islam 21c's
		
02:10:52 --> 02:10:53
			efforts
		
02:10:53 --> 02:10:56
			to uplift Ummah from darkness into light Insha
		
02:10:56 --> 02:10:57
			Allah.
		
02:10:57 --> 02:11:00
			Let's see, Tarek, Razi, if you can give
		
02:11:00 --> 02:11:02
			us some final updates inshallah,
		
02:11:02 --> 02:11:03
			how much we're on,
		
02:11:04 --> 02:11:06
			and okay, no more donations.
		
02:11:07 --> 02:11:08
			So, you know, someone something funny has been
		
02:11:08 --> 02:11:10
			happening to me this Ramadan.
		
02:11:10 --> 02:11:12
			I'll go to an event. I'll do a
		
02:11:12 --> 02:11:12
			fundraiser.
		
02:11:13 --> 02:11:16
			Barely hand any hands go up. Okay? And
		
02:11:16 --> 02:11:18
			it's not because they're not giving. It's just
		
02:11:18 --> 02:11:19
			that they're not putting their hands up, but
		
02:11:19 --> 02:11:20
			they're they're giving.
		
02:11:20 --> 02:11:21
			Tonight,
		
02:11:21 --> 02:11:22
			we raised
		
02:11:23 --> 02:11:26
			another organization for Kingston Muslim Youth about £29,000,
		
02:11:29 --> 02:11:29
			£29.
		
02:11:31 --> 02:11:33
			Right? So people did not many people put
		
02:11:33 --> 02:11:35
			their hands up. I would have estimated around
		
02:11:35 --> 02:11:36
			8 or 9,000.
		
02:11:37 --> 02:11:38
			So brothers and sisters,
		
02:11:38 --> 02:11:39
			we know that hold on.
		
02:11:40 --> 02:11:41
			£1,300
		
02:11:42 --> 02:11:42
			in total.
		
02:11:43 --> 02:11:45
			Right? So that was that's a total so
		
02:11:45 --> 02:11:47
			far as we end the show. We had
		
02:11:47 --> 02:11:48
			a target of 5,000.
		
02:11:49 --> 02:11:51
			Brothers and sisters, even if we're offline,
		
02:11:51 --> 02:11:53
			the website is still live. You can still
		
02:11:53 --> 02:11:54
			go on that live link.
		
02:11:55 --> 02:11:56
			So, Man, I think we should put the
		
02:11:56 --> 02:11:57
			show back on from the start and do
		
02:11:57 --> 02:11:58
			a little loop.
		
02:11:59 --> 02:12:01
			Yeah. Yeah. Why not?
		
02:12:02 --> 02:12:04
			Keep keep the the audio rolling Insha'Allah.
		
02:12:06 --> 02:12:08
			So, brother, sisters, someone, any final words from
		
02:12:08 --> 02:12:11
			you? Just to remember, brother and sisters, when
		
02:12:11 --> 02:12:13
			reason why we cut up these live streams,
		
02:12:15 --> 02:12:17
			spread them across 10 nights, made them quite
		
02:12:17 --> 02:12:18
			short compared
		
02:12:18 --> 02:12:20
			to maybe other live streams or in in
		
02:12:20 --> 02:12:22
			the in the past It's so we can
		
02:12:22 --> 02:12:25
			all make use of all these moments of
		
02:12:25 --> 02:12:27
			these last final few nights of Ramadan. So
		
02:12:27 --> 02:12:29
			make sure you've done your now.
		
02:12:31 --> 02:12:33
			Pray some more. If you're at home or
		
02:12:33 --> 02:12:34
			doing family masjid,
		
02:12:35 --> 02:12:37
			recite in Quran. Remember the dua of the
		
02:12:37 --> 02:12:39
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam encourages to make
		
02:12:40 --> 02:12:40
			and
		
02:12:44 --> 02:12:46
			and and keep keep,
		
02:12:47 --> 02:12:49
			you know, making, the most of
		
02:12:50 --> 02:12:53
			these, precious few, moments that we have left
		
02:12:53 --> 02:12:55
			over the last, 10 nights of Ramadan.
		
02:12:56 --> 02:12:57
			With one of the reason why we're doing
		
02:12:57 --> 02:13:00
			these short short streams is so we
		
02:13:00 --> 02:13:02
			can diversify our.
		
02:13:02 --> 02:13:04
			Do the do the masjid. Do the ishar.
		
02:13:04 --> 02:13:05
			Do the,
		
02:13:05 --> 02:13:07
			do the do the,
		
02:13:08 --> 02:13:09
			you know, do the
		
02:13:10 --> 02:13:12
			do the Quran, and do the supporting the
		
02:13:12 --> 02:13:15
			Ummah as well. And, and, standing up for
		
02:13:15 --> 02:13:16
			our brothers and sisters,
		
02:13:17 --> 02:13:19
			in in Gaza and wherever they're suffering.
		
02:13:19 --> 02:13:21
			So, brothers and sisters.
		
02:13:21 --> 02:13:23
			That's it for me. And,
		
02:13:24 --> 02:13:26
			I'll let Tariq wrap up, and we'll be
		
02:13:26 --> 02:13:28
			back here in 2 nights time, inshallah,
		
02:13:29 --> 02:13:32
			with Usad Yusha Evans, inshallah, if I'm not
		
02:13:32 --> 02:13:32
			mistaken.
		
02:13:33 --> 02:13:33
