Every one is now waking up to reality of Zionism now. Yeah.
Right. Everyone's waking up to that. That's one huge lesson is
coming out of this total, right? They've lost the PR war. They've
lost it now and Israeli thing to and came out and admitted, they
said that of all the protests going around the world 95% of pro
Palestine, wow. 95% of profiles, right? So they've lost, they've
lost that you can see also with his un votes, how when they do so
in the General Assembly, it's like 140 or, and 50 countries. It's
Israel and us on the other side, and a few other countries, even a
lot of like, vassal states of the US like Britain and the EU.
They're abstaining.
They're losing that. Right. So that's coming to the fore, but
something even greater than that's happening. And I think I think
you've talked to some of our guests about this, which is that
people aren't, people aren't only waking up to the reality of
Israel, but they're also waking up to the reality of Palestinians.
And they're saying what is it that keeps these people going?
Right, like they've gone through so much they've there's there's
people who've lost everything, they lost their homes, they lost
her family, they have nothing.
But they're smiling and they're single handedly low sugar Lillard
right there. How is that possible? They don't get so what is that now
doing? So now they think, Okay, well, they're Muslims. Okay. So
and then they're going and they're trying to read a translation
report and they're trying to
put the pieces together. And it's, it's happening like I think, I
think it was just a My friend has and he's my co author from
depression anxiety, like he sent me he sent me a video of
a lady from America is not a Muslim, right blonde, who heard
that lady, not a Muslim. And she's reading she's reading a
translation of the Koran, right? I'm assuming is a pretty decent
one. previous conversation, right? I'll see what okay, what.
But she put a little video saying the Quran is helping me with my
anxiety. I have I have I have anxious I have anxiety problems.
And she read. I think reading is it's subtle.
Paula.
Me talking about Yeah. Jello Maharaja.
Yeah, Tessa, wherever fears Allah log him away out. vibrations in
the sun. So she's quoting this idea that you close my eyes and
super Rockman.
And she's almost tearing up. Like, she's not even a Muslim. She's
She's almost tearing up. And she's saying, you know, with with
anxiety, she's saying with anxiety. You know, people always
telling people I was telling you, okay, that you have to learn to
let go, you have to learn to let go. And don't Don't fret over that
thing. And then she said, But I reading these reading these verses
and realizing
how can I let go of something that I never really had in the first
place? SubhanAllah? How can I let go, when a lot has been holding
all along?
Right? How do I do? How do I let go, and she said so. So then I
realized, and then I realized, wait a second, I'm actually part
of a larger system, a much larger part or like a larger, you know,
apparatus or framework. And all I can really do is act. That's all I
can do. Because Allah is in control. And she says, This isn't
what I was taught, I always taught that. It's down to you. It's
always down to you, right? So if you're successful, because it's
because of you and your hard work. If you're not successful. It's
because you're lazy. You're stupid. You're this and that. It's
like, no, no, it's all in the laws hands. So she said she said that,
that just that just gave me so much. Just relief. Yeah. Just just
just to see that. So I think I think to put all of that together,
I think I think for Muslims who are getting really really anxious
and depressed situation of us a look at the bigger picture, look
at the bigger picture, see what's really happening. And then look at
these people aren't even Muslim who are now coming back to or not
coming to a lot and now reading your book.
And just seeing I mean,
they're seeing things that a lot of muscle just haven't seen,
right. So something we all see is bad in our world, but Allah has
has a hidden blessing in that and one of them, you mentioned is
people Americans waking up to the Quran. So waking up to Islam, look
asking, how are these Palestinians keep going? I'm looking here at a
Guardian article. Young Americans are picking up the Quran to
understand the resilience of Muslim Palestinians. Then it has
here a woman who who started a book club on Discord and she
posted reviews on Tik Tok. Right. And she chit chats about a book on
Tik Tok. That's it and she's out of Chicago. She's 34 years old.
Then when this crisis happened that she has a big platform on Tik
Tok, start talking about Palestine.
And then she started noticing that picture that video of the brother
whose daughter died.
This is a he was you know, a Palestinian man religious man, I
think is from the web Gemma of Palestine and he
his daughter was brought to meet us she has the two poufs like this
was brought to him and he was just kissing her face. She passed away.
He's about to marry her. She said, Yeah, that video once got so many
people wondering how is he doing this? How was he not like yelling,
screaming and yelling Crazy, right? So they started to pick up
the Quran. Here one lady says I wanted to talk about the faith of
Palestinian people how it's so strong, they still find room to
make it a priority to thank God even when they have everything
taken away from them. She said in an interview this lady her name is
Megan B rice.
She keeps posting these videos. One thing Lex leads to the next
eventually she ends up all Muslim and she posts it.
Somebody Allah subhanaw taala took someone that you the last person
that you would ever even think of. And this person has been a means
of hundreds upon 1000s if not millions, to discover the Quran,
right? And really view the Quran in a positive light. Okay, because
we have enough of bad press, but she has amazing you know, good
press
