00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

Salam aleikum everyone we have an announcement hamdulillah thanks to

00:00:25 --> 00:00:29

the help of a lot of people we were able to get my Twitter handle

00:00:29 --> 00:00:33

back. I had prayed to Allah to stop arguing on Twitter, Allah

00:00:33 --> 00:00:37

took away my Twitter handle for a month. How much was it? How long

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

was it maybe a month or so? I'm telling you, it felt great not to

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

argue with people on Twitter. So I'm going to try to stick to that

00:00:43 --> 00:00:47

commitment. Let's see how long it lasts. But the Twitter handle is

00:00:47 --> 00:00:51

back. And this video is to make that official so that if you're

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

nobody should now be getting any other messages from my Twitter

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

handle. I don't even know. My inbox didn't even have messages

00:00:59 --> 00:01:02

outgoing. So I don't even know what the purpose was of the this

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

hack. Maybe just a bot got in there.

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

But doesn't seem like there was any bad activity. So it

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

hamdulillah it is back. And I'll be checking it regularly. No.

00:01:12 --> 00:01:17

All right. So I just recorded that video. We'll put it up there soon.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:22

But that's the first piece of of news for for for the day for

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

whoever it's relevant for. I guess it's relevant to me but

00:01:26 --> 00:01:31

today's subject is the affairs of the OMA Okay.

00:01:33 --> 00:01:36

the affairs of the OMA is today's subject, and the affairs of the

00:01:36 --> 00:01:39

OMA is something that prophets Isom said he's not one of us who,

00:01:40 --> 00:01:45

who ever does not care about the affairs of the OMA. Okay. The

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

exact wording is

00:01:49 --> 00:01:54

Ali Imam, the Prophet used that word. Okay, man, lemmya tembi muda

00:01:54 --> 00:01:58

and Muslim in Felisa and Amina, you're not fulfilling your role as

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

a Muslim correctly, if you're,

00:02:03 --> 00:02:08

if you're not concerned with the affairs of the Muslims, and it is

00:02:08 --> 00:02:14

an affair of the Muslims. So we do have a situation here with two

00:02:14 --> 00:02:22

countries, that massive, massive countries. And I would say, peep

00:02:23 --> 00:02:27

people who Pakistan is a country that has done so much for the

00:02:27 --> 00:02:32

English speaking world, that any Muslim in the

00:02:33 --> 00:02:34

English speaking world

00:02:35 --> 00:02:39

is going to have a lot of connection to the people of

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

Pakistan. Okay, so

00:02:43 --> 00:02:46

we're going to begin with Imran Khan first, and then we're going

00:02:46 --> 00:02:50

to go to Erdogan. Okay.

00:02:51 --> 00:02:55

I know people who heard Aragon so much that I tell them, please,

00:02:55 --> 00:03:00

you're overdoing this. Right Turks. They hate him so much that

00:03:00 --> 00:03:07

they've they hate the whole Islamist politics that they

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

really, to me it sounds like they're overdoing it. It's like

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12

you can't hate that much.

00:03:14 --> 00:03:19

Especially when someone is in the fold of Islam, there has to be

00:03:19 --> 00:03:22

limits on these things. All right. So the first article

00:03:26 --> 00:03:29

submitted ahead of Monday, Raheem, let's see if I'm logged in for

00:03:29 --> 00:03:34

this. Yes, I am. Let's go to the New York Times. All right.

00:03:36 --> 00:03:40

Basics, assuming nobody knows anything. I have no political

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

slant here.

00:03:42 --> 00:03:44

I'm BronyCon New York Times

00:03:46 --> 00:03:52

authored by Christina gold Baum. And Matt big. That's his name,

00:03:52 --> 00:03:53

Matt. Big

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

guy sounds like a football coaches. Imran Khan, who was

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

arrested on corruption charges on Tuesday was elected as prime

00:04:01 --> 00:04:06

minister in 2018. Again, this is just the news for people who don't

00:04:06 --> 00:04:10

know anything about this. Okay. And there's not going to be much

00:04:10 --> 00:04:15

analysis. All right. When he ran as a nationalist promising to

00:04:15 --> 00:04:20

fight corruption, he reviving the country's economy maintaining an

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

independent foreign policy, and he distanced himself from the United

00:04:24 --> 00:04:28

States. His arrest significantly escalated a political crisis in

00:04:28 --> 00:04:34

the country, raising the prospects of mass unrest by his supporters.

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

All right, let's take a look at his background. He's born to a

00:04:37 --> 00:04:41

rich family in Lahore, Pakistan. educated at Oxford University,

00:04:41 --> 00:04:46

he's now 70 years old that dude 70 Well, he looks like he's like 58

00:04:46 --> 00:04:50

or something. 56 It's must be the athlete in him that's keeping

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

physically fit. Okay, so he rose to international promise

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

prominence in the 70s

00:05:00 --> 00:05:05

As cricket star, then he married a British heiress, Jemima Goldsmith.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:12

A year later, he tried to parlay his popularity from Cricket. And

00:05:12 --> 00:05:17

he led Pakistan to win the only world cup of cricket that it's

00:05:17 --> 00:05:21

ever won. Do you know the year? 1992? Good. All right, did cricket

00:05:21 --> 00:05:24

is a sport that I had not that they must have explained it to me

00:05:24 --> 00:05:29

like four times. In England when I was in England. I couldn't really

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

wrap my head around it, right.

00:05:33 --> 00:05:36

But it's British baseball essentially. That's what it is.

00:05:37 --> 00:05:42

He then now parlayed that into a political career. Where does all

00:05:42 --> 00:05:46

this gambling language, parlay, you only hear it in the gambling

00:05:46 --> 00:05:47

commercials, right.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:52

He established his own party, Pakistan to headache Insaaf

00:05:52 --> 00:05:56

movement for justice. As a politician, he portrayed himself

00:05:56 --> 00:06:00

as a reformer, offering an alternative to Pakistan's

00:06:00 --> 00:06:05

entrenched political dynasties. For a decade, he struggled to make

00:06:05 --> 00:06:09

political inroads and was mocked for his ambitions. Oh, you can't

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11

stop guys like this. He knows that all you have to do is keep

00:06:11 --> 00:06:15

packing. You keep pecking you're gonna get there. Same thing, like

00:06:15 --> 00:06:18

you're studying Arabic. You don't even need to be smart. You don't

00:06:18 --> 00:06:23

even have to have anything except a nonstop you just keep pecking at

00:06:23 --> 00:06:26

it. You keep pecking you keep pecking no matter what happens?

00:06:27 --> 00:06:32

irrationally, right. You're gonna get to the your goals. And that's

00:06:32 --> 00:06:35

what he did. So they made fun of them. They laughed at him. They

00:06:35 --> 00:06:40

shoot him off. Well, look, he ended up as a president. By 2011.

00:06:40 --> 00:06:43

He started to get momentum, hundreds of 1000s were attending

00:06:43 --> 00:06:48

his rallies. He was a great speaker. Okay. populist, anti

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

corruption anti American.

00:06:51 --> 00:06:55

By then Mr. Khan had embraced a pious form of Islam, and he sought

00:06:55 --> 00:07:00

to transform his personal image, a sought to transform maybe he was

00:07:00 --> 00:07:05

transforming just right. In 2018, he married a third time Bushido

00:07:05 --> 00:07:07

Bibi, yet.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:11

He had married Jemima Goldsmith.

00:07:13 --> 00:07:17

And this had ended in a divorce and he was previous briefly

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

married to a broadcast journalist, but he ham.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:22

Hello, who's this?

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

Hello? No, I can't talk right now.

00:07:30 --> 00:07:33

After winning the backing of military leaders, Mr. Khan became

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

prime minister in 2018.

00:07:36 --> 00:07:39

Okay, you got to get those military leaders behind your back

00:07:39 --> 00:07:42

who has the biggest guns? That's essentially

00:07:43 --> 00:07:43

it.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

Alright.

00:07:49 --> 00:07:50

That's essentially the whole thing.

00:07:51 --> 00:07:54

I'm just reading you the articles? No, I'm not making any conclusions

00:07:54 --> 00:07:57

because I'm, I'm not up for upsetting anybody. Just given

00:07:57 --> 00:08:01

general Muslims out there who have no clue about Pakistan. You need

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

to know about Pakistan. Because if you're in the Western Hemisphere,

00:08:05 --> 00:08:09

guaranteed your life as a Muslim will intersect with people,

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12

whoever it what is important to another Muslim, but at least we

00:08:12 --> 00:08:15

have to give it something right. And it's a big issue in the OMA

00:08:15 --> 00:08:19

it's a worldwide news, global news. So he got the backing of

00:08:19 --> 00:08:20

military leaders.

00:08:22 --> 00:08:25

And he became the prime minister in 2018. Many of his rivals

00:08:25 --> 00:08:28

accused military of manipulating the election in his favor.

00:08:30 --> 00:08:34

He ushered in a new foreign policy moving away from the US closer to

00:08:34 --> 00:08:35

Russia and China.

00:08:36 --> 00:08:38

Now, why was he arrested? Oh, by the way, Russia and China. And

00:08:38 --> 00:08:41

that's some innocent people either, just like anti American is

00:08:41 --> 00:08:45

like the big deal, or we love anti American, we'll be careful who

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

you're replacing them with.

00:08:47 --> 00:08:53

I'm telling you, Guantanamo. There were people is one of the worst

00:08:53 --> 00:08:58

crimes that the US has done right? Over 700 people there for decades,

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

without a charge against them.

00:09:02 --> 00:09:05

You know that that number is a fraction of what all these other

00:09:05 --> 00:09:05

countries do.

00:09:06 --> 00:09:09

Alright, you're lucky you're not dead and disappeared with no

00:09:09 --> 00:09:13

documentation. We in the United States. Let's compare our crimes

00:09:14 --> 00:09:17

with the crimes of these other nations not just hating on

00:09:17 --> 00:09:19

America, just because it's the power right now. There's our worst

00:09:19 --> 00:09:23

powers out there. Like the British, the British when they

00:09:23 --> 00:09:26

colonized the people. That country was livable.

00:09:28 --> 00:09:31

It was livable under British now look when the Americans go in

00:09:31 --> 00:09:32

Iraq,

00:09:33 --> 00:09:34

Libya.

00:09:35 --> 00:09:38

Now it's Sudan. Well, it's not really Americans fault Sudan guy,

00:09:38 --> 00:09:39

but I'm sure they're involved.

00:09:41 --> 00:09:44

Afghanistan, they live in Rebels. The Americans are far worse when

00:09:44 --> 00:09:48

they go and colonize and don't say colonization doesn't exist. It's a

00:09:48 --> 00:09:52

different form. It's a more efficient form. Only we need to

00:09:52 --> 00:09:55

rule you people will just take your resources and leave. Right

00:09:56 --> 00:10:00

and then put in our puppet and let you deal with your rub.

00:10:00 --> 00:10:03

and your mess. Okay. So

00:10:05 --> 00:10:08

just to keep some like level headed thing about the anti

00:10:08 --> 00:10:11

Americanism as much as everyone's, I guess, anti American in some

00:10:11 --> 00:10:15

way, shape and form because of the wars that they did. But just keep

00:10:15 --> 00:10:20

in mind, you have to be practical. And oftentimes all of our life is

00:10:20 --> 00:10:23

choosing between two different evils. You want to be colonized

00:10:23 --> 00:10:27

and ruled and oppressed by Americans or by the Chinese. No,

00:10:27 --> 00:10:30

I'm gonna go with the Americans. There is still some, if I'm going

00:10:30 --> 00:10:32

to be oppressed, let's say hypothetically, right? There's

00:10:32 --> 00:10:38

still some humanity. Chinese. I remember one guy got arrested in

00:10:38 --> 00:10:42

Egypt. Okay. This was to have a religion so as to have some

00:10:42 --> 00:10:47

humanity. He's an American, he got arrested. He said, he contact he

00:10:47 --> 00:10:52

said, Hey, to the jailers, I need to call my lawyers. What are you

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

so naive? There's no rights. This is not the United States. You have

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57

no rights in Egypt.

00:10:58 --> 00:11:01

God people didn't know where he was for months on end. And he's an

00:11:01 --> 00:11:05

American citizen, Egyptian American citizen. Okay, so

00:11:07 --> 00:11:10

Mr. Khan's relatively stable tenure. I hope the CIA liked that

00:11:10 --> 00:11:13

little clip right there. So they watch it. So you know, take me off

00:11:13 --> 00:11:17

the list. I'm saying good things about you guys. Your like humane

00:11:17 --> 00:11:22

oppressors, Mr. Khan's relatively stable tenure began to unwind in

00:11:22 --> 00:11:26

2021. Dissatisfaction with how he handled the economy came to a head

00:11:27 --> 00:11:30

and a dispute over with the military over its leadership.

00:11:30 --> 00:11:34

That's what cost him his support. That's the thing. Okay, that's

00:11:34 --> 00:11:36

what cost you you can't you can't mess around with the guys with the

00:11:36 --> 00:11:39

guns. It's a common sense. It's very simple in these old

00:11:39 --> 00:11:44

countries, right? We got the guns. I remember Bob mugabi. You ever

00:11:44 --> 00:11:50

hear about mugabi? Okay. He is the president of Zimbabwe. Okay.

00:11:51 --> 00:11:53

This guy got

00:11:55 --> 00:11:59

this guy by Mugabe has been the dictator of Zimbabwe. Of course,

00:11:59 --> 00:12:02

he's dead now a long time ago, been dictator, Zimbabwe for like

00:12:02 --> 00:12:05

30 years, one of those old dictators.

00:12:06 --> 00:12:09

And he goes,

00:12:10 --> 00:12:14

the US comes in and says, hey, you need some aid? Yeah, I need tons

00:12:14 --> 00:12:17

of money. He said aren't but we need we got we got our own

00:12:17 --> 00:12:21

reputation. You gotta gotta go with free and fair elections. So I

00:12:21 --> 00:12:24

said, Alright, fine. We'll do for these these stupid election. He's

00:12:24 --> 00:12:27

never done an election before. What he loses the election. Right?

00:12:29 --> 00:12:32

So some young guy, naive thought that he's gonna get away with this

00:12:32 --> 00:12:37

goes and wins the election. Now it's time to admit that you lost

00:12:37 --> 00:12:43

gone TV. Alright, my opponent, one guy refused to make the call. All

00:12:43 --> 00:12:45

right. And the guy said, Alright, let's transfer the power. He's

00:12:45 --> 00:12:49

like, how would I transfer the power? I got the gun. You got a

00:12:49 --> 00:12:53

pen? Right? You guys checked off the winner with a pen? I got the

00:12:53 --> 00:12:56

guns. Why would I transfer power to you? And they never transferred

00:12:56 --> 00:12:59

any power. It's okay. You got an election, you won the election.

00:12:59 --> 00:13:03

That's it. There is no mention of transferring power. So he said,

00:13:03 --> 00:13:08

How can append defeat a gun? That was his logic. That's the logic of

00:13:08 --> 00:13:11

that world over there. It's the old world. Right? So

00:13:12 --> 00:13:13

he then

00:13:14 --> 00:13:16

has a dispute with the military.

00:13:17 --> 00:13:21

Why did that happen? I would like to ask him like, you're, you're

00:13:21 --> 00:13:22

you're a smart guy.

00:13:23 --> 00:13:27

Why would you mess with them, you are going to stay in power to the

00:13:27 --> 00:13:32

degree that you keep them happy. So anyway, that's just my take on

00:13:32 --> 00:13:35

it. If you want to stay in power in the first place, you know, I'm

00:13:35 --> 00:13:36

not in the realm of politics. So

00:13:37 --> 00:13:40

tensions further mounted, when he was wounded,

00:13:41 --> 00:13:45

after a man opened fire at a political rally.

00:13:46 --> 00:13:50

aides called it an assassination attempt. You know, of course, his

00:13:50 --> 00:13:52

rivals, you know what they said? They said it was a fake

00:13:52 --> 00:13:55

assassination attempt to gain sympathy when his numbers are

00:13:55 --> 00:13:59

going down. Since being removed from office, he faced a series of

00:13:59 --> 00:14:03

charges including terrorism and corrupt terrorism. Oh, please. I

00:14:03 --> 00:14:05

mean, that's like, how is this guy a terrorist

00:14:07 --> 00:14:10

and he has repeatedly faced threats of arrest after failing to

00:14:10 --> 00:14:11

appear in court.

00:14:12 --> 00:14:15

He has also openly challenged the government in the military,

00:14:16 --> 00:14:19

accusing them of conspiring against him. Mr. Khan was wrapped

00:14:19 --> 00:14:23

arrested on corruption charges on Tuesday connected to his case

00:14:23 --> 00:14:29

involving the transfer of land for Al kodjia University. Abdulkadir

00:14:30 --> 00:14:32

abduct class should be

00:14:33 --> 00:14:38

Mr. Khan has been accused of granting favors to a real estate

00:14:38 --> 00:14:42

tycoon with the university getting land and donations in return.

00:14:44 --> 00:14:44

Okay.

00:14:46 --> 00:14:46

Okay.

00:14:49 --> 00:14:50

Are ready the comments are coming in

00:14:54 --> 00:14:54

right

00:14:59 --> 00:14:59

there

00:15:00 --> 00:15:04

is a guy who's a really good guy on Twitter. He despises Imran

00:15:04 --> 00:15:07

Khan. I can't remember his name, but like what he's always

00:15:07 --> 00:15:10

supporting me and when I'm having some debate with some

00:15:11 --> 00:15:13

xindi key type, but

00:15:15 --> 00:15:17

he's hatred Markham so

00:15:18 --> 00:15:21

all of our guys here in the community they love Imran Khan.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:23

Okay, next article.

00:15:24 --> 00:15:25

Pakistan

00:15:27 --> 00:15:31

official gives con 24 hours to handover riot suspects.

00:15:32 --> 00:15:36

How is he going to hand over right suspects? That's a good question.

00:15:37 --> 00:15:40

This is now we shifted from New York Times general article New

00:15:40 --> 00:15:45

York Times to now at zero with mantequilla Yes, you got it. It's

00:15:45 --> 00:15:49

Shahab is a brother named Shahab. Very smart guy helps me

00:15:50 --> 00:15:54

argue against these innovators, right? Innovative groups, these

00:15:54 --> 00:15:55

deviant groups

00:15:58 --> 00:16:01

doesn't like Imran Khan is putting it really,

00:16:03 --> 00:16:07

really mild. He despises Imran Khan,

00:16:08 --> 00:16:10

political opinions, whatever.

00:16:11 --> 00:16:14

I'm in the realm of what God said. And His Prophet said that's my

00:16:14 --> 00:16:19

allegiance. So political opinions, I guess. go both ways. Go.

00:16:21 --> 00:16:23

What is this green thing and where now? Why am I wearing it? First of

00:16:23 --> 00:16:27

all, because the stream each stream thumbnail has to look

00:16:27 --> 00:16:29

different. I can't wear the same clothes every day. Right? So I got

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

to find some way to different and it didn't feel like ironing a new

00:16:33 --> 00:16:38

shawl today. So this was that's the reason is fine. Anything to

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

make it look different. That's it but this is called the habla. And

00:16:41 --> 00:16:45

people in Yemen where they don't have a lot of chairs. They, when

00:16:45 --> 00:16:49

they sit on the floor, they pull their knees up, they put this

00:16:49 --> 00:16:52

around themselves. It's like a rubber band that holds you

00:16:52 --> 00:16:55

together. That's really literally it's like a big rubber band. And

00:16:55 --> 00:16:59

you could sit there and you don't have to hold your arms up your

00:16:59 --> 00:17:02

knees up with your arms. It's called the head we'll

00:17:05 --> 00:17:07

never have back jacks. They don't have chairs. It's called the

00:17:07 --> 00:17:11

Hubble. Alright, so when they don't use it, they just put it on

00:17:11 --> 00:17:15

like a chess sash like this or a shawl like that.

00:17:18 --> 00:17:21

A vaccine official has accused former Prime Minister Imran Khan

00:17:21 --> 00:17:25

of sheltering aids and supporters wanted over it attacks on the

00:17:25 --> 00:17:26

army.

00:17:27 --> 00:17:28

Citizens attack the army.

00:17:30 --> 00:17:33

And they said he have 24 hours to hand them over. What is you want

00:17:33 --> 00:17:38

to going to do run around in a car and pick up these people. We have

00:17:38 --> 00:17:41

intelligence at some 30 to 40 terrorists, terrorists who are

00:17:41 --> 00:17:45

involved in attacking our armies building and installations or

00:17:45 --> 00:17:49

hiding at Ximen Park. Hey, listen, this is not good for the army. You

00:17:49 --> 00:17:53

are the army of a nation. And you're saying 30 to 40 people

00:17:53 --> 00:17:55

bombed us and they're hiding in the park and you go get them,

00:17:55 --> 00:18:00

aren't you the army? Soon as you'd be rolling out tanks, right? Like

00:18:00 --> 00:18:03

this is a weak statement for PR wise, right? Remember when we had

00:18:03 --> 00:18:07

I don't know if you're here. But the Taliban released that

00:18:07 --> 00:18:09

statement one time, and it was all sorts filled with some weak

00:18:09 --> 00:18:12

language. And I'm like, who wrote this thing? Right? But

00:18:13 --> 00:18:17

you have the intel that these people Why are you releasing a

00:18:17 --> 00:18:21

statement? Go get them then. All right. Am I right or wrong? This

00:18:21 --> 00:18:25

That, to me just doesn't make any sense. Of course, that's what the

00:18:25 --> 00:18:26

caveat that

00:18:27 --> 00:18:30

everything that we read here on these papers, you take it with a

00:18:30 --> 00:18:34

grain of salt, who knows what's happening what's being said, but

00:18:35 --> 00:18:39

if I'm an Army, okay, if I'm an Army, I'm not releasing a

00:18:39 --> 00:18:43

statement like this. Oh, we were attacked. I know you're hiding in

00:18:43 --> 00:18:44

the park and you go get them.

00:18:46 --> 00:18:47

Where's your

00:18:49 --> 00:18:53

Alright, here we go. We are giving an ultimatum that these terrorists

00:18:53 --> 00:18:55

should be turned over to the police.

00:18:57 --> 00:19:02

Mayor Sadiq Khan had 24 hours to surrender the sub suspects. Were

00:19:02 --> 00:19:04

they hiding in his house or something just like

00:19:05 --> 00:19:07

the old days of

00:19:08 --> 00:19:11

marijuana did HECM hiding inside North man's house

00:19:12 --> 00:19:15

in response to Moroccan

00:19:17 --> 00:19:24

a politician in belonging to cons Pakistan to headache Insaaf. To

00:19:24 --> 00:19:30

have equal Insaaf. In Arabic party PTI told Jazeera the allegation

00:19:30 --> 00:19:34

that he is hiding right suspects is only going to increase

00:19:34 --> 00:19:37

political temperature and is very dangerous. So what is it like

00:19:37 --> 00:19:40

feeding them? Giving them pillows and stuff?

00:19:41 --> 00:19:45

Sort of absurd. If you asked me, it is very rich of this caretaker

00:19:45 --> 00:19:49

government which is in power only to hold elections not to do their

00:19:49 --> 00:19:52

constitutional Do you know these countries all of them no offense.

00:19:53 --> 00:19:57

When I was in seventh grade, my intermediate school Toms River

00:19:57 --> 00:19:59

Intermediate School East

00:20:00 --> 00:20:05

Good was seventh and eighth grade. And it was massive. Like over it

00:20:05 --> 00:20:07

was. It was like

00:20:09 --> 00:20:14

seventh and eighth grade, we had several 1000 kids in the school

00:20:15 --> 00:20:21

1000s Not hundreds 1000s How many adults? Probably 100 or something.

00:20:22 --> 00:20:26

That seventh and eighth grade was absolute insanity. You walk in it

00:20:26 --> 00:20:29

you could get away with so much because the the teachers couldn't

00:20:29 --> 00:20:32

do they couldn't keep up. You know what I think of when I think of

00:20:33 --> 00:20:36

all these countries. Imagine that intermediate schools, seventh and

00:20:36 --> 00:20:39

eighth graders who have just gone crazy. They're all crazy. They

00:20:39 --> 00:20:43

just want to have fun. They want to see pass. Okay. Imagine all the

00:20:43 --> 00:20:48

adults left the building and let the school to be run by the kids.

00:20:48 --> 00:20:51

What would it be like? Right, utter chaos. That's what it feels

00:20:51 --> 00:20:52

like when I read about these.

00:20:53 --> 00:20:55

These countries. I feel bad for the citizens to be honest with

00:20:55 --> 00:20:57

you. But that's that's what to me.

00:20:58 --> 00:20:59

It feels like

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

good. No one's truly in charge.

00:21:04 --> 00:21:07

Except for the military in the military. They don't know how to

00:21:07 --> 00:21:09

do the civilian stuff. Right.

00:21:10 --> 00:21:15

On Wednesday, Mr. Khan said that he secured an extension to his

00:21:15 --> 00:21:20

protective bail until May 31. Kahn was bailed by this lumbar High

00:21:20 --> 00:21:24

Court last Friday following his May 9 arrest, which sparked

00:21:24 --> 00:21:27

violent protests across the country that killed at least 10

00:21:27 --> 00:21:33

people and led nearly 5000 arrests. Okay. The court extended

00:21:33 --> 00:21:38

his bail, which was to expire on Wednesday because the prosecutor

00:21:38 --> 00:21:42

respected more time to produce details of the case against him.

00:21:43 --> 00:21:46

Good. The dramatic arrests of the former prime minister over

00:21:46 --> 00:21:50

corruption allegations from a courtroom in Islamabad. All right,

00:21:50 --> 00:21:53

deepened political instability. I'll give something to Pakistan

00:21:53 --> 00:21:58

that Egypt doesn't have. At least they rotate rulers. Egypt boom,

00:21:58 --> 00:22:02

one guy 30 years you ticking up. He's not leaving. Give it 30

00:22:02 --> 00:22:06

years, your kids may see another ruler. And then when they come

00:22:06 --> 00:22:09

it's just the same. There's nothing different except the

00:22:09 --> 00:22:14

names. You know, that's it. The initial excitement. It's all the

00:22:14 --> 00:22:19

same guy he's gonna rule over you by force with his military and

00:22:19 --> 00:22:22

we're all gonna whine about the prices and whine about oppression.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:26

Right and corruption for the next 30 years as the same thing.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:31

Khan who denies the allegations was removed from power through a

00:22:31 --> 00:22:35

parliamentary confidence vote. So at least in Pakistan, you at least

00:22:35 --> 00:22:39

get the this a new face every a new little drama, right.

00:22:42 --> 00:22:45

A wave of violence in Gulf Pakistan's capital and other

00:22:45 --> 00:22:48

cities following Khan's arrest with 1000s of angry supporters

00:22:49 --> 00:22:54

storming government buildings and vehicles and attacking police 5000

00:22:54 --> 00:22:58

PTI workers and supporters were arrested.

00:22:59 --> 00:23:04

So far, I haven't read that citizen were killed. I guess

00:23:04 --> 00:23:05

that's good. Okay.

00:23:06 --> 00:23:10

On Wednesday, Mir, the information minister for the Punjab province

00:23:10 --> 00:23:13

said those accused of attacking the army installations and

00:23:13 --> 00:23:18

buildings would be tried in a military tribunal wonderful. The

00:23:18 --> 00:23:21

military said the main nine attacks against the army were

00:23:21 --> 00:23:27

plant and ordered by cons party leaders con disowned those

00:23:27 --> 00:23:32

involved in the arson and demanded an impartial inquiry concerns over

00:23:32 --> 00:23:33

military trials.

00:23:35 --> 00:23:37

Of course they have concerns over military trials who wouldn't

00:23:38 --> 00:23:42

military trial there's no such thing as a military trial. It's

00:23:42 --> 00:23:46

just a you're just gonna get bulldozed that's it

00:23:47 --> 00:23:48

okay

00:23:53 --> 00:23:57

next piece enjoy wanna read more about Imran Khan? Is that enough?

00:23:59 --> 00:24:00

Okay.

00:24:02 --> 00:24:06

It's just seems to be a whole bunch of chaos to me.

00:24:08 --> 00:24:11

From the outside, it's a bunch of chaos and at the end of the day,

00:24:11 --> 00:24:15

who wins in chaos? The guy with the biggest guns

00:24:16 --> 00:24:19

Hello stranger says enough of this. Okay.

00:24:22 --> 00:24:26

All right, enough of this. Let's go now to the next sub story.

00:24:26 --> 00:24:30

Turkey in Arabic that's all sob stories. Great turkeys

00:24:30 --> 00:24:32

presidential race to be decided

00:24:34 --> 00:24:35

in a runoff. Okay.

00:24:41 --> 00:24:45

Mr Erdogan was the favorite to win the SEC is the favorite to win the

00:24:45 --> 00:24:47

second round to win the runoff.

00:24:49 --> 00:24:53

Okay, Turkeys powerful President dredge up teddy bear to gun will

00:24:53 --> 00:24:59

go head to head with his opposition rival in a runoff.

00:24:59 --> 00:24:59

We're going to read

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

Biography of his rival in a second.

00:25:03 --> 00:25:07

Erdogan led the first round with 49.51% of the vote.

00:25:08 --> 00:25:13

Although he had a clear lead over his main challenger command.

00:25:18 --> 00:25:22

kilojoule I know I know enough circuits to know that the G is

00:25:22 --> 00:25:23

silent.

00:25:24 --> 00:25:29

And that guy got 44 point 88%. Half the country basically almost

00:25:29 --> 00:25:31

split. Okay.

00:25:34 --> 00:25:42

And Erdogan missed out, but what by 39.39%? If he had gotten a

00:25:42 --> 00:25:47

sorry, point four 9% He would have gotten 50%. And he would have

00:25:47 --> 00:25:48

wanted, good.

00:25:50 --> 00:25:55

But because nobody got 50%, there's going to be a second round

00:25:55 --> 00:25:59

next Monday into 28th of May.

00:26:00 --> 00:26:01

A couple of days from now.

00:26:03 --> 00:26:07

All right, shortly before the announcement by election Council

00:26:07 --> 00:26:12

leader athma TNA, the President's rival appeal to supporters not to

00:26:12 --> 00:26:16

fall into despair, and to stand and take on the election together.

00:26:16 --> 00:26:20

Another full. Why would you use the word despair regarding your

00:26:20 --> 00:26:25

election is going to lose? Why would you use that word?

00:26:28 --> 00:26:33

I wonder the education in terms of how to convince like marketing and

00:26:33 --> 00:26:34

how to talk.

00:26:37 --> 00:26:40

That to me says I don't think he's gonna win. Right?

00:26:42 --> 00:26:45

Because the way he talks like that, say that word like that not

00:26:45 --> 00:26:48

know not to despair. He just inserted despair into everyone's

00:26:48 --> 00:26:53

mind. But it was not immediately obvious how the opposition

00:26:53 --> 00:26:56

national alliance could narrow a margin of five points in two

00:26:56 --> 00:27:00

weeks. How are you going to narrow that margin? Although the third

00:27:00 --> 00:27:05

candidate Ultra nationalist CNN, Olgun got 5%.

00:27:06 --> 00:27:12

Okay. It seemed unlikely that all his voters would switch to the

00:27:12 --> 00:27:15

center left led liberal opposition.

00:27:18 --> 00:27:22

Mr. Erdogan has been in power for 20 years first as Prime Minister

00:27:22 --> 00:27:23

then president.

00:27:25 --> 00:27:28

And he gained strength in 2016 after a failed coup.

00:27:33 --> 00:27:36

Many opinion polls had suggested his rival was on course to win the

00:27:36 --> 00:27:41

first round. And Erdogan supporters celebrated outside

00:27:41 --> 00:27:46

party headquarters in Ankara long into the night. So they thought he

00:27:46 --> 00:27:48

would win the first time he missed it by point

00:27:49 --> 00:27:53

1% Half a half of a sorry, half of a percent good.

00:27:56 --> 00:27:59

addressing them from the balcony, he told them he had won 2.6

00:27:59 --> 00:28:04

million more votes than his chief. Okay, so the guy goes and he says

00:28:04 --> 00:28:09

don't despair. Erdogan goes said we want 2.6 million more. Right?

00:28:10 --> 00:28:14

Which one knows how to play this game, which one knows how to zip

00:28:14 --> 00:28:16

up his crowd. Guy.

00:28:18 --> 00:28:21

With Mr. K as I'll call him as candidate the opposition was seen

00:28:21 --> 00:28:25

as having its best chance so far at removing everyone from para

00:28:25 --> 00:28:29

Erdogan. It drew together a broad based alliance of parties and

00:28:29 --> 00:28:33

offered an end to soaring inflation and Mr. Erdogan system

00:28:33 --> 00:28:37

of an all powerful presidency. But initial confidence in victory

00:28:37 --> 00:28:40

turned into disappointment. And the opposition leader did his best

00:28:40 --> 00:28:43

to rally supporters by declaring we will absolutely win in the

00:28:43 --> 00:28:46

second round. Alright, that's a better statement if you're trying

00:28:46 --> 00:28:46

to

00:28:48 --> 00:28:50

get your people going. Yeah.

00:28:52 --> 00:28:58

The the secular votes came from the edges of the country. And and

00:28:58 --> 00:29:01

most of the middle of the country went to Aragon.

00:29:02 --> 00:29:05

Mr. urinaria said all the ballot boxes from Sunday vote have been

00:29:06 --> 00:29:12

opened. And turnout in Turkey was at 9%. That's amazing.

00:29:14 --> 00:29:16

You know, how many what's the percentage of people vote in

00:29:16 --> 00:29:20

America? I think it's like under 30%. Like 70% Americans don't

00:29:20 --> 00:29:20

vote.

00:29:22 --> 00:29:23

And it's there's it's it's

00:29:24 --> 00:29:29

there's no reason to vote. If you're in California, for example,

00:29:29 --> 00:29:32

for the general election, you know where it's going. You know, it's

00:29:32 --> 00:29:36

they're always with the Democrats. Texas always with the Republicans,

00:29:36 --> 00:29:40

New Jersey, New York, all up Maine, Vermont, all them are

00:29:40 --> 00:29:41

always blue.

00:29:43 --> 00:29:48

Florida, Ohio, Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania. These are what they

00:29:48 --> 00:29:52

call the swing states, purple states they say. So those are the

00:29:52 --> 00:29:53

ones where

00:29:58 --> 00:29:59

supporters have come

00:30:00 --> 00:30:03

MLK had little to celebrate on election night.

00:30:08 --> 00:30:13

Monitors praised the high turnout. Good. They said the vote had been

00:30:13 --> 00:30:17

limited by an unlevel playing field. They singled out bias media

00:30:17 --> 00:30:22

coverage, as well as intimidation of the pro Kurdish party and the

00:30:22 --> 00:30:24

jailing of its former joint leader,

00:30:25 --> 00:30:31

Osman Kavala. Another issue they highlighted was the limited help

00:30:31 --> 00:30:34

given to survivors of February's earthquake to take part in the

00:30:34 --> 00:30:35

election.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:41

Mr. Erdogan was widely criticized, of course, BBC is going to pile it

00:30:41 --> 00:30:45

on Erdogan for the state slow response to the disaster, which

00:30:45 --> 00:30:50

left 50,000 people dead. Okay. He was criticized by whom? Let's ask

00:30:50 --> 00:30:53

you the question. Have you ever had to lead a nation in a 50,000?

00:30:53 --> 00:30:58

Dead earthquake? So you can give me advice? Oh, it was a slow

00:30:58 --> 00:31:00

response, as opposed to what?

00:31:01 --> 00:31:01

Right?

00:31:04 --> 00:31:09

take advice from people or listen to the critique of people who've

00:31:09 --> 00:31:13

never done what they're talking about. Right. Oh, the response was

00:31:13 --> 00:31:16

slow, as opposed to what your response when you had to lead a

00:31:16 --> 00:31:18

nation that had a 50,000 person earthquake.

00:31:19 --> 00:31:23

But it had little effect on election results in eight cities.

00:31:23 --> 00:31:28

Strongholds of Aragon's party in the earthquake zone, voted for

00:31:28 --> 00:31:32

him. So there it is. The people who suffered from an earthquake

00:31:32 --> 00:31:34

they voted for him. They were so angry about it, they wouldn't have

00:31:34 --> 00:31:38

voted for him. In seven of the cities, the President's support

00:31:38 --> 00:31:46

remained over 60% Only Gaziantep slipped to 59% Sunday's vote. I

00:31:46 --> 00:31:49

didn't realize he was strong like this. I actually thought that his

00:31:49 --> 00:31:53

time was up. But it seems to me here that

00:31:55 --> 00:31:58

it's, it's still he still has a pretty good chance. I mean,

00:31:58 --> 00:32:02

nothing's for sure. But and of course there are a lot of people

00:32:02 --> 00:32:05

saying the movement has died out and stuff like that. Everything

00:32:05 --> 00:32:08

that goes up must come down. Sunday's vote was not only for the

00:32:08 --> 00:32:13

presidency, but 600 seats in the parliament. And here to Erdogan

00:32:13 --> 00:32:17

had a good Aragon party had a good night, heading for a majority of

00:32:17 --> 00:32:26

about 317 seats. Good. What are the other parties that there the

00:32:26 --> 00:32:29

IOI party the you know the symbol Have

00:32:30 --> 00:32:34

you ever watched the show or through Oh, I why they call their

00:32:34 --> 00:32:38

party, which is called the good party, where they call it the good

00:32:38 --> 00:32:41

party, I don't know. But their party is called the good party and

00:32:41 --> 00:32:47

they have 44 seats. They went up from last election. The green left

00:32:48 --> 00:32:53

good leftists for the environment, I guess. They got 61 seats down

00:32:53 --> 00:32:56

six from 67. The Workers Party

00:32:57 --> 00:33:00

was not had no seats in 2018. Now they got for

00:33:01 --> 00:33:04

the Justice and Development Party AKP,

00:33:05 --> 00:33:10

which is Aragon's party, they had to 95 they got to 67 That's not

00:33:10 --> 00:33:14

good. You went down 28 The biggest decrease the National Movement

00:33:14 --> 00:33:15

front

00:33:17 --> 00:33:24

went up from 49 to 50. And the refer Energen refer party had five

00:33:24 --> 00:33:28

and they stay did not have any seats and they went up and now

00:33:28 --> 00:33:32

they have five seats. Okay, so let's now look at

00:33:33 --> 00:33:39

attention has now switched to the 2.7 9 million ballots that were

00:33:39 --> 00:33:44

cast for CNN Ogun, who told BBC Turkish that without him, the

00:33:44 --> 00:33:48

presidential race would have been over and round one saying that

00:33:48 --> 00:33:52

Erdogan would have won outright. He was remorseless in his

00:33:52 --> 00:33:57

criticism of the opposing opposition for failing to win when

00:33:57 --> 00:33:59

the ruling party was struggling with so many setbacks. See, I told

00:33:59 --> 00:34:03

you the what I've heard is that there are two guns party has a lot

00:34:03 --> 00:34:06

of setbacks is a lot of issues in the party. Right? And it's like a

00:34:06 --> 00:34:12

25 year old movement, it's gonna you know, Peter off eventually, he

00:34:12 --> 00:34:15

hoped that another Muslim group comes out and

00:34:16 --> 00:34:20

can pick up the baton doesn't have to be the same party. You truly

00:34:20 --> 00:34:23

successful and have multiple parties have the same basic

00:34:23 --> 00:34:26

ideals. So you've changed the whole meta narrative of the

00:34:26 --> 00:34:30

country doesn't have to be your party, right? Can be another party

00:34:30 --> 00:34:33

and another ruler, but he rules with those same basic values, the

00:34:33 --> 00:34:39

details can be changed, but he CNN he attacked the opposition. Okay.

00:34:39 --> 00:34:42

He said you had the economy, you had the earthquake, you had the

00:34:42 --> 00:34:46

Erdogan for 20 years, and you still couldn't defeat him in the

00:34:46 --> 00:34:51

first round. Okay. Even if he were to act as a kingmaker by endorsing

00:34:51 --> 00:34:55

one candidate or the other, it's far from certain that all his

00:34:55 --> 00:34:56

voters would follow him.

00:34:58 --> 00:34:58

Okay.

00:34:59 --> 00:35:00

Let's

00:35:00 --> 00:35:05

see who the opposition guy is to read his biography opposition guy

00:35:05 --> 00:35:07

looks like he could be heir to guns.

00:35:09 --> 00:35:11

Relative they look similar.

00:35:12 --> 00:35:19

Okay, according to this picture at least, alright KML k is 74 and he

00:35:19 --> 00:35:24

is in the fight of his life, his political life. He has mounted the

00:35:24 --> 00:35:29

strongest opposition challenge to Turkey's most powerful men,

00:35:29 --> 00:35:31

Erdogan since he took power 20 years ago.

00:35:32 --> 00:35:36

Turkey's mild mannered opposition leader may have fallen short of

00:35:36 --> 00:35:39

his arrival in the first round, but he assured supporters they had

00:35:39 --> 00:35:46

victory in their grasp, in the 28th may run off the will for

00:35:46 --> 00:35:51

change in societies higher than 50%. A soft spoken formal, former

00:35:51 --> 00:35:57

civil servant, He is the very antithesis of Turkey's

00:35:57 --> 00:36:01

grandstanding, powerful president, his trademark gesture for the

00:36:01 --> 00:36:06

election was a heart a heart shaped gesture with his hands. You

00:36:06 --> 00:36:09

know, for some reason, I despise that gesture. I don't know why,

00:36:09 --> 00:36:10

but I despise it.

00:36:12 --> 00:36:12

What do you think of that?

00:36:14 --> 00:36:17

The heart shaped gesture with their hand. I don't know just one.

00:36:17 --> 00:36:22

It's a pet peeve. No specific reason. But it's about beef. The

00:36:22 --> 00:36:26

omens for victory are not good, though. He has lost several

00:36:26 --> 00:36:31

elections, since he took over the charge of the Republican People's

00:36:31 --> 00:36:36

Party in 2010. As a losing track record, when his predecessor was

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

forced out because of an extramarital affair,

00:36:39 --> 00:36:44

perhaps not the obvious candidate then for six opposition parties

00:36:44 --> 00:36:48

who are uniting under one person to challenge Erdogan. So these are

00:36:48 --> 00:36:50

six groups. That's good for Erdogan because

00:36:52 --> 00:36:56

as the longer it goes, the more they could get fractured. Six

00:36:56 --> 00:37:02

groups. Okay. And yet, camo K is a highly experienced politician. By

00:37:02 --> 00:37:04

the way, highly experienced politicians tend not to be the

00:37:04 --> 00:37:08

best in elections, because a politician always like measures

00:37:08 --> 00:37:11

his words and make sure to make everyone happy. But if you want to

00:37:11 --> 00:37:15

win elections, you need to be able to get attention, show power, show

00:37:15 --> 00:37:19

strength, have like, you're better off probably being a salesman to

00:37:19 --> 00:37:24

win an election than a politician. And you saw Hillary, a career

00:37:24 --> 00:37:24

politician.

00:37:26 --> 00:37:28

And Trump a career salesman

00:37:29 --> 00:37:32

who want to salesman, right.

00:37:35 --> 00:37:39

He has survived a string of violent attacks, earning the

00:37:39 --> 00:37:42

reputation of being one of Turkey's most targeted

00:37:42 --> 00:37:45

politicians, and he wore bulletproof vest at his final

00:37:45 --> 00:37:49

rallies. In his 13 years as a leader, political leader, he has

00:37:49 --> 00:37:54

broadened his party's appeal, and embrace all different colors in

00:37:54 --> 00:37:57

the country. He posted on social media, a series of videos from his

00:37:57 --> 00:38:00

modest kitchen, often addressing young voters on highly sensitive

00:38:00 --> 00:38:07

issues, such as being occurred, or being a minority Elevate, which he

00:38:07 --> 00:38:14

is good. And the Elevate is a sect of that have beliefs that would

00:38:14 --> 00:38:17

put them outside of Islam like we can't consider them to be Muslims,

00:38:18 --> 00:38:22

the Syrians or have the ruling party of Syria or Allah whites

00:38:22 --> 00:38:27

according to that doctrine that opt either they are not Muslims to

00:38:27 --> 00:38:31

us and according to our theology, because they what they go deviate

00:38:31 --> 00:38:36

from, and he's just elevate by all elevates you're just it's like a

00:38:36 --> 00:38:40

cultural ethnic thing. Not like anyone follows that religion.

00:38:40 --> 00:38:44

Right? There's no religion left to follow, to be honest. All right,

00:38:44 --> 00:38:47

in a soft tone, he reached out to voters by saying that he would

00:38:47 --> 00:38:51

unite all of Turkeys different strands of society. So it seems

00:38:51 --> 00:38:58

like a Biden type of figure who is the polar opposite of the loud and

00:38:58 --> 00:39:02

rambunctious and powerful Trump, right? So

00:39:04 --> 00:39:09

the CHP charts its origins back to Turkey's modern secular founder

00:39:09 --> 00:39:13

Kemal Ataturk. It was long considered close close to the

00:39:13 --> 00:39:17

military, which has overthrown the government four times since 1960.

00:39:18 --> 00:39:23

And was always seen as a hardline party on the issue of dividing

00:39:23 --> 00:39:28

Church and State nodine after the military coop in 1980. All right,

00:39:28 --> 00:39:32

it supported the ban on hijab, at schools and in public service,

00:39:33 --> 00:39:34

born in 48

00:39:35 --> 00:39:38

km l k. Pronounced Thank you.

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

Kill it's dark blue.

00:39:42 --> 00:39:43

Kill it's dark blue.

00:39:45 --> 00:39:48

He was the fourth of seven kids brought up by a housewife and a

00:39:48 --> 00:39:51

civil servant in eastern the eastern city of Tunceli. He comes

00:39:51 --> 00:39:55

from Allah V family, a distinct Islamic sect and religious

00:39:55 --> 00:39:59

minority in the mostly Sunni Turkey. He was a star

00:40:00 --> 00:40:04

student at the many schools that he attended, and he followed his

00:40:04 --> 00:40:07

father's job as a civil servant and he studied economics in

00:40:07 --> 00:40:11

Ankara. He spent years as a civil servant in Turkey's financial

00:40:11 --> 00:40:14

bodies. Okay after seven years

00:40:15 --> 00:40:20

in Parliament, he was selected to run for one of Turkey's most

00:40:20 --> 00:40:24

powerful and prestigious roles. The mayor of Istanbul he lost, but

00:40:24 --> 00:40:27

he won praise for his campaign and it became a very credible runner

00:40:27 --> 00:40:32

up. Within a year of that success. The leader of the CHP resigned

00:40:32 --> 00:40:36

after a secret videotape emerged of an affair and Mr. K

00:40:36 --> 00:40:39

unexpectedly found himself as the prime candidate for the job.

00:40:40 --> 00:40:47

Okay, he looks like the average Arab or Turk. Right completely

00:40:47 --> 00:40:49

average that's what he looks like.

00:40:50 --> 00:40:53

In in, in in London, all over Turkey, they got these old old

00:40:53 --> 00:40:57

boys Turkish clubs, where it's just like a room with chess

00:40:57 --> 00:41:03

tables, backgammon tables, a lot of smoking picture of Ataturk,

00:41:03 --> 00:41:05

guy, and

00:41:06 --> 00:41:11

Turkish flags everywhere. And all the guys look like this guy. You

00:41:11 --> 00:41:16

know, like a standard guy with a shirt and a little bit balding,

00:41:16 --> 00:41:19

with a mustache all look the same.

00:41:21 --> 00:41:25

Initially, he refused to run for leadership, not wishing to take

00:41:25 --> 00:41:28

advantage of a scandal. But his stance softened and he won the

00:41:28 --> 00:41:32

race by a landslide. Erdogan was now was by now at the peak of his

00:41:32 --> 00:41:37

power guy becoming Turkey's most successful modern era Prime

00:41:37 --> 00:41:41

Minister by winning almost half the vote in 2011.

00:41:42 --> 00:41:47

The CHP came a distant second, but increased his vote by 5%.

00:41:50 --> 00:41:55

But in his 13 years in charge, he has led a quiet revolution within

00:41:55 --> 00:41:58

the party. He has tried to make peace with the Islamists through

00:41:58 --> 00:42:03

gestures like attending Iftar or breaking the fast, okay, and he

00:42:03 --> 00:42:05

erased the party's old militaristic codes.

00:42:07 --> 00:42:10

Alright, so he's moved, needle moved a little bit. When I first

00:42:10 --> 00:42:13

met him, I thought he was not a revolutionary leader, but an

00:42:13 --> 00:42:17

evolutionary one. Said a colleague, he locks onto his

00:42:17 --> 00:42:21

target six to it with incredible serenity. And by the end you're

00:42:21 --> 00:42:26

convinced is very decisive when he thinks that is the right thing to

00:42:26 --> 00:42:30

do. That is why she believes it took him 13 years to reshape his

00:42:30 --> 00:42:34

party and secure its backing to run for the presidency. Due to his

00:42:34 --> 00:42:37

background, he has also maintained strict financial discipline.

00:42:38 --> 00:42:42

He's very careful about not spending any extra for anything

00:42:42 --> 00:42:46

unnecessary. In time, he introduced religious figures,

00:42:47 --> 00:42:51

Kurdish activist women's rights to prove that Turkish society had

00:42:51 --> 00:42:54

changed. So he's saying that you know, even the religious ones can

00:42:54 --> 00:42:58

be part of it. Everyone's part of it. Alright, so like the Democrats

00:42:58 --> 00:42:59

like everyone's part of it.

00:43:01 --> 00:43:05

The CHP his party has a very male dominant structure. He couldn't

00:43:05 --> 00:43:08

pull down that wall completely. But he tries to include women.

00:43:11 --> 00:43:14

One party colleague told the BBC he never raises his voice.

00:43:15 --> 00:43:20

Sometimes things drive us crazy and we are all screaming but K

00:43:20 --> 00:43:21

keeps us calm.

00:43:22 --> 00:43:26

The moment anyone enters the room he stands up and shakes hands

00:43:26 --> 00:43:29

never talks to people sitting behind the desk and never

00:43:29 --> 00:43:31

interrupts What is this? What is he a saint or something?

00:43:33 --> 00:43:36

You know, one on one thing fine, two things fine. Is there a long

00:43:36 --> 00:43:39

list? What is the some kind of Saint?

00:43:41 --> 00:43:45

The soft spoken net in nature coupled with a passing physical

00:43:45 --> 00:43:49

resemblance to the former Indian leader Gandhi named him Gandhi

00:43:49 --> 00:43:51

Kemah. Come on. Okay.

00:43:52 --> 00:43:55

As as his peaceful response to physical attacks, he was punched

00:43:55 --> 00:44:00

twice, by a visitor in parliament in 2014. While he's about to give

00:44:00 --> 00:44:03

a speech, and he suffered a bruise cheek and I,

00:44:04 --> 00:44:07

and he called on colleagues to keep pumped the path of democracy

00:44:07 --> 00:44:12

of full of obstacles, okay, he's Gandhi now getting punched and

00:44:12 --> 00:44:17

having no reaction. Good for him. If that's the case, he's got he's

00:44:17 --> 00:44:21

got his party members, you know, talking like that. In 2016. His

00:44:21 --> 00:44:26

convoy was attacked by a missile by the Kurdish militant group.

00:44:27 --> 00:44:30

And then following the following year, he escaped and attempted

00:44:30 --> 00:44:32

bombing by ISIS.

00:44:33 --> 00:44:36

Why would you why would you bomb this guy? I don't think that he's

00:44:38 --> 00:44:41

I don't know if you ask me if I'm going up for a fight.

00:44:42 --> 00:44:46

This is not the guy I'm worried about. Right. He seems like a nice

00:44:46 --> 00:44:50

guy. Okay, everyone's got that but it does not seem to be the leader

00:44:50 --> 00:44:51

that you worry about. Right.

00:44:53 --> 00:44:57

And he seems like the best quality that he has is because he's so

00:44:57 --> 00:44:59

calm. He's able to calm all these

00:45:00 --> 00:45:03

groups and bring them together. But is he really able to paint a

00:45:03 --> 00:45:10

vision for everybody to just to go through wars for him? I don't

00:45:10 --> 00:45:12

know. He survived an attempted lynching.

00:45:13 --> 00:45:16

lynching, you walk into a rope

00:45:18 --> 00:45:25

at in 2019 at a soldier's funeral as as he came under attack, he was

00:45:25 --> 00:45:29

taken to a nearby house, where a woman or a woman urged the crowd

00:45:29 --> 00:45:30

to burn it down.

00:45:31 --> 00:45:34

When police ushered him to safety, he said these attempts cannot stop

00:45:34 --> 00:45:35

us.

00:45:36 --> 00:45:41

But it was after the failed 2016 coup, that his reputation spread

00:45:41 --> 00:45:45

beyond Turkey, as President Erdogan crackdown on dissent,

00:45:45 --> 00:45:50

arresting and sacking 1000s of Turks. Seen as linked to the coop,

00:45:51 --> 00:45:56

the opposition leader launched a march for justice. from Ankara to

00:45:56 --> 00:45:56

Istanbul.

00:45:58 --> 00:45:59

What does he want?

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

The people try to do a coup.

00:46:03 --> 00:46:03

The

00:46:05 --> 00:46:10

we have some of this group here. The globalists I'm not trying to

00:46:10 --> 00:46:11

offend the Gulas but

00:46:12 --> 00:46:15

they're the ones who did the school. So what do you expect?

00:46:16 --> 00:46:22

What do you try to do a coop? Okay. What do you expect? All

00:46:22 --> 00:46:22

right.

00:46:25 --> 00:46:26

for the President to do

00:46:28 --> 00:46:32

just let you have a coup and mu move on. Are you expect to get

00:46:34 --> 00:46:38

you know, a response and have it Can I bother you to plug to push

00:46:38 --> 00:46:40

that into make sure that's plugged in because I need to plug in the

00:46:40 --> 00:46:41

iPhone.

00:46:44 --> 00:46:47

Despite the success of this March, he chose not to challenge for the

00:46:47 --> 00:46:52

presidency that year. Waiting. Oh, it's not even plugged in? Yeah.

00:46:53 --> 00:46:55

There's the dark gray one, the dark gray one.

00:46:56 --> 00:46:58

It's plugged in. Okay, thanks.

00:46:59 --> 00:47:02

It then took him months to convince other opposition parties

00:47:02 --> 00:47:03

to back his bid.

00:47:05 --> 00:47:10

The CHP has better speakers and arguably higher profile public

00:47:10 --> 00:47:14

figures who won. But with this with his main rival at His weakest

00:47:14 --> 00:47:18

party colleagues felt this was their leaders moment. I have never

00:47:18 --> 00:47:21

heard a word of hatred from his mouth. He could be angry with

00:47:21 --> 00:47:24

someone but keeps calm and he forgives.

00:47:27 --> 00:47:30

He keeps calm and he forgives. Is he the Nebby?

00:47:31 --> 00:47:34

Listen, the guy after say,

00:47:35 --> 00:47:41

I have to say he comes off as like a Biden. You can't hate the guy.

00:47:42 --> 00:47:46

You can't hate him. The guy comes out with a very calm personality.

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

And

00:47:49 --> 00:47:51

I mean, some of these glowing

00:47:52 --> 00:47:55

commentaries are absurd. There's no doubt about that. But like it's

00:47:55 --> 00:47:58

so it's a political figure. That guy's a politician. These guys

00:47:58 --> 00:48:01

have done something bad. How do you a politician that's 74 years

00:48:01 --> 00:48:05

old and no one has anything bad to say? Like, like, where are your

00:48:05 --> 00:48:11

enemies? But in any event, he does seem to be a calm guy and, you

00:48:11 --> 00:48:11

know,

00:48:13 --> 00:48:14

upon.

00:48:15 --> 00:48:16

Yeah.

00:48:18 --> 00:48:23

Like, is Biden anything other than that? To like, Biden, you can't

00:48:23 --> 00:48:27

tell me Biden's actually. You can't tell me why there's actually

00:48:27 --> 00:48:32

like, run and stuff. No. I feel bad for them. I think it's elderly

00:48:32 --> 00:48:36

abuse what they're doing to him. Yeah. Like these elders, the guy?

00:48:36 --> 00:48:36

Yeah.

00:48:37 --> 00:48:42

I think it's total abuse. Because if you think about this, the man

00:48:42 --> 00:48:45

he's going to have to do so much traveling. He's gonna get so

00:48:45 --> 00:48:47

abused by Trump. Okay.

00:48:50 --> 00:48:54

This is wrong, what they're doing to him. And if you ask him in his

00:48:54 --> 00:48:57

heart of hearts, do you want he just doesn't want to disappoint

00:48:57 --> 00:48:59

these youth that are around him that are saying, Oh, you got to be

00:48:59 --> 00:49:05

president, right? He's not in his the right health for this. To be

00:49:05 --> 00:49:10

running around like this. The guy needs to be resting and being old

00:49:10 --> 00:49:13

call us. Time's up. But they're gonna run him around. He's gonna

00:49:13 --> 00:49:17

get pummeled by Trump named called his family's gonna get dragged in

00:49:17 --> 00:49:19

the mud. And he's an old man who should be resting.

00:49:21 --> 00:49:25

Turn it all the time. And it's just getting roasted, bro. I feel

00:49:26 --> 00:49:31

I don't laugh anymore. When they put the clips of Biden bumbling up

00:49:32 --> 00:49:36

everything. I feel that it's almost like it's so bad. It's like

00:49:36 --> 00:49:40

haram to laugh. Right? That's how bad it is with Biden. Because it's

00:49:40 --> 00:49:45

not your enemy who oppressed you is bumbling things up. This is a

00:49:45 --> 00:49:50

man who's has layer some layers of dementia. You know, like not I'm

00:49:50 --> 00:49:54

not saying dementia like full on dementia. But enough that is stuff

00:49:54 --> 00:49:58

that old people get and you laugh at that. It's going to come back

00:49:58 --> 00:49:59

to you the men

00:50:00 --> 00:50:04

My opinion is is being abused by his parties, but they're abusing

00:50:04 --> 00:50:05

them. Right?

00:50:07 --> 00:50:10

And what are they going to? You think he's going to be able to do

00:50:10 --> 00:50:15

the grueling schedule of the like the last month before the

00:50:15 --> 00:50:19

election, these guys live off that plane or there's the jet. They go

00:50:19 --> 00:50:25

into one city. He comes off the plane, and the rallies right there

00:50:25 --> 00:50:28

on the on the tarmac. That's how they do it. So they'll go to the

00:50:28 --> 00:50:31

private a private airport, he'll come out.

00:50:33 --> 00:50:35

He's not going to go to a stadium or anything. He'll come right down

00:50:35 --> 00:50:40

the steps. And at the tarmac, they've set up shop. Only

00:50:40 --> 00:50:45

1000 2000 3000 People 3000 Maybe too much, maybe 1000 2000 People

00:50:45 --> 00:50:50

at the tarmac, he gives a speech on the stage. Okay, a little

00:50:50 --> 00:50:53

makeshift stages there. He gives a speech he shakes a couple hands

00:50:53 --> 00:50:56

takes pictures with babies and people whose vote that they want

00:50:56 --> 00:51:01

to get. Like if they want to if that if that week, the Latino the

00:51:01 --> 00:51:04

Hispanic vote is down, I go find a Hispanic baby take a picture with

00:51:04 --> 00:51:07

it gets the baby, right shake hands with the with the Hispanic

00:51:07 --> 00:51:11

looking men. Make sure that that gets everywhere, so that the

00:51:11 --> 00:51:15

Hispanic vote goes up again. Then go next. Oh, we said a gaff about

00:51:15 --> 00:51:17

women. Okay, take pictures, a couple of women make sure you

00:51:18 --> 00:51:21

shake hands with some women have some women on this date, whatever

00:51:21 --> 00:51:24

group is down, they're gonna go and take pictures with them. Then

00:51:24 --> 00:51:26

he gets back on the plane. And he may

00:51:28 --> 00:51:33

like Obama, when he was like full of energy, I didn't 234 stops in a

00:51:33 --> 00:51:37

day. Any of the same speech, right? memorize a speech called

00:51:37 --> 00:51:41

us. stump speech. They call it a go do that three, four times.

00:51:41 --> 00:51:45

That's not the last leg of the election. Some of these. They'll

00:51:45 --> 00:51:48

go out there. Like in the last few days of go out there. It could be

00:51:48 --> 00:51:49

one of the morning.

00:51:50 --> 00:51:53

He'll give the speech. Right? And

00:51:54 --> 00:51:57

you could tell like Obama and Trump like when they're speaking

00:51:57 --> 00:52:00

like they're speaking with like energy. It's like, Yeah,

00:52:01 --> 00:52:04

I'm just like, Alright, here's your script, and that's gonna get

00:52:04 --> 00:52:11

bumbled up to write. And Trump if you know, if only give for Trump,

00:52:11 --> 00:52:14

if he wants to get elected, stop reading from the teleprompter,

00:52:14 --> 00:52:16

just get up and talk. That's what's got you elected the first

00:52:16 --> 00:52:20

time. You got you watch his speeches. It's a guy who just got

00:52:20 --> 00:52:24

up and rambling, right? But you can't stop listening to it right?

00:52:25 --> 00:52:29

Love him or hate him. Of course, a lot of people hate him but and we

00:52:29 --> 00:52:31

should be hated any. Any person who's like, as filthy as him

00:52:31 --> 00:52:35

should be hated. But the people were listening. Now he gets up to

00:52:35 --> 00:52:38

sound like any old politician is reading a speech from a

00:52:38 --> 00:52:42

teleprompter. And I'm not even interested in listening. Right?

00:52:43 --> 00:52:45

Even as a hater, like hate listening, I'm not even

00:52:45 --> 00:52:49

interested. It's click the next video. So for him if he wants to

00:52:49 --> 00:52:53

get involved, and get the people riled up again. And by the way,

00:52:54 --> 00:52:59

Trump, all it is, is personal grievances. Now, he won the first

00:52:59 --> 00:53:00

election because he was

00:53:01 --> 00:53:05

arguing for the people, of course, which is all lies, right. But he

00:53:05 --> 00:53:10

made himself out to be arguing for the common man. He's he was

00:53:10 --> 00:53:16

arguing for the white men, middle age, older white man who finds his

00:53:16 --> 00:53:21

stock decreasing now, right? And not as valuable to be white

00:53:21 --> 00:53:25

anymore. It used to be gets your doors open, Miss still does, but

00:53:26 --> 00:53:28

so he argued for them, so they loved him.

00:53:29 --> 00:53:30

And he'd go off and

00:53:31 --> 00:53:35

smash you know, all the people who are the perceived enemies of that

00:53:35 --> 00:53:39

crowd. Now, all he does is get up there and talk about his own

00:53:39 --> 00:53:42

cases, his own grievances. So just watching this chess match and

00:53:42 --> 00:53:47

watching the game being played, that's my 30,000 foot view, is

00:53:47 --> 00:53:51

that get he's got the teleprompter? Boring, everyone's

00:53:51 --> 00:53:53

head to death, then all it is,

00:53:54 --> 00:53:59

is his own grievances, and nothing about the people. So from what

00:53:59 --> 00:54:03

from that perspective, it's not a compelling candidacy anymore. Like

00:54:03 --> 00:54:04

the first one

00:54:05 --> 00:54:09

was okay. Of course, with the caveat, knowing that it's all just

00:54:09 --> 00:54:14

a bunch of lies and nonsense, but in general, that's how I felt the

00:54:14 --> 00:54:14

one the first one.

00:54:15 --> 00:54:20

Biden came in as a breath of fresh air one because Trump is

00:54:20 --> 00:54:24

exhausting. It's just nonstop scandals and annoyances and

00:54:24 --> 00:54:29

bothersome stuff, right. It's just nonstop. And after a while, the

00:54:29 --> 00:54:34

new you get the he hits the news all the time. You can not watch

00:54:34 --> 00:54:38

it. But after a while, it's like exhausting. So you get a president

00:54:38 --> 00:54:41

who hasn't been in the news. The only the only thing he's ever in

00:54:41 --> 00:54:45

the news for his his gifts. Like there's nothing else the popular

00:54:45 --> 00:54:50

regular person gets on his radar except his gaffes. But I'm like,

00:54:50 --> 00:54:55

finally enough political news to put this guy Biden in. So we can

00:54:55 --> 00:54:59

just get some silence, right. You're exhausting and obnoxious

00:55:00 --> 00:55:05

and constantly annoying. So I don't really don't know the only

00:55:05 --> 00:55:09

reason that Trump would possibly win this time around is because

00:55:10 --> 00:55:13

the first time around, Biden was able to do it through zoom, and he

00:55:13 --> 00:55:17

was a breath of fresh air. Now Biden's got to actually fight a

00:55:17 --> 00:55:21

real fight traveling around talking to people. And there's no

00:55:21 --> 00:55:25

contrast anymore. Right? There's no contrast of enough of Trump's

00:55:25 --> 00:55:26

obnoxious pneus.

00:55:28 --> 00:55:33

Biden was a welcome contrast, that contrast doesn't exist anymore. So

00:55:33 --> 00:55:37

it's much different when you're when you're fighting as the front

00:55:37 --> 00:55:42

runner. Then as the underdog under Trump didn't even go fight as an

00:55:42 --> 00:55:47

underdog as a front runner. Well, he fought as an underdog, you

00:55:47 --> 00:55:49

know, swinging wildly at everything shooting at everything.

00:55:50 --> 00:55:56

Right. And it worked for him as as the front runner, it was terrible.

00:55:57 --> 00:56:00

All he had to do was not screw up COVID. And he would have easily

00:56:00 --> 00:56:04

won. But he had to play with that he had to meddle with it. And he

00:56:04 --> 00:56:08

screwed that up. That's just political Sports Radio right

00:56:08 --> 00:56:09

there. Because

00:56:10 --> 00:56:14

not advocating for either side. But that's just my view of the

00:56:14 --> 00:56:19

gamesmanship of the thing, just the gamesmanship of it. And the

00:56:19 --> 00:56:23

Democrats are pretty How could they not have come up with a

00:56:23 --> 00:56:25

candidate in all these years?

00:56:26 --> 00:56:30

No candidate, and I don't think you can be a strong Democratic

00:56:30 --> 00:56:31

candidate. I'll tell you why. Because

00:56:33 --> 00:56:38

the Democrats are all about always apologizing, it's a culture that

00:56:38 --> 00:56:42

you're always going to apologize, you can't upset anybody. Right?

00:56:42 --> 00:56:46

You cannot be strong with these people. Because the they don't

00:56:46 --> 00:56:49

like the language of strength. They don't like the language of

00:56:51 --> 00:56:56

of anyone strong. And they like the language of always sort of

00:56:56 --> 00:57:03

putting yourself down in the name of inclusion. Okay. And always,

00:57:03 --> 00:57:07

it's like excessive inclusion, and making sure nobody's upset. And

00:57:07 --> 00:57:12

it's a language. It's a culture that constantly apologizing. So

00:57:12 --> 00:57:16

when one guy was coming up from Texas, it's a tall, lanky Democrat

00:57:16 --> 00:57:20

from Texas, that he was looked like a pretty good candidate. He

00:57:20 --> 00:57:23

had a little bit of a funny name. I can't remember his name.

00:57:24 --> 00:57:25

But

00:57:26 --> 00:57:30

he ends up having to apologize 10 times. Every Oh, I'm sorry, I

00:57:30 --> 00:57:32

offended this group. I'm sorry. I offended that group. Oh, I'm

00:57:32 --> 00:57:36

sorry. How are you have strength? Right? They cannot produce a

00:57:36 --> 00:57:38

strong person guarantee you.

00:57:40 --> 00:57:44

Alright, let's let's read a little bit here. Analysts predict the

00:57:44 --> 00:57:49

incumbent candidate that Erdogan will win the second round. Okay.

00:57:49 --> 00:57:53

They stay the pundits will pundits are always there. Maybe right,

00:57:53 --> 00:57:55

maybe wrong. You never know.

00:57:56 --> 00:58:02

Erdogan got 49.51% and K got 44.89%.

00:58:04 --> 00:58:09

Good, Erdogan performed better than expected guy and his alliance

00:58:09 --> 00:58:15

still got the majority of a 600. Person parlor. Good

00:58:16 --> 00:58:21

moment, Erdogan has momentum says a political analyst. Erdogan

00:58:21 --> 00:58:24

maintained his base of support and in the heartland of Anatolia,

00:58:24 --> 00:58:28

although he lost some support in the southeast. Okay.

00:58:30 --> 00:58:34

He was very successful in the earthquake hit regions. Some

00:58:34 --> 00:58:38

people find that surprising, but he apparently delivered what they

00:58:38 --> 00:58:42

expected of him, and promises that He will deliver even better after

00:58:42 --> 00:58:43

the election.

00:58:45 --> 00:58:47

Meanwhile, there are some members of the opposition who were

00:58:47 --> 00:58:51

disappointed with kg and considered him the wrong

00:58:51 --> 00:58:54

candidate. By the way, we have to keep in mind this is AlJazeera was

00:58:54 --> 00:59:00

Qatar who supports Erdogan. So no news outlet is going to be you

00:59:00 --> 00:59:03

know, they have their biases, of course, but I like this bias,

00:59:03 --> 00:59:07

right. It's biased, but it's my bias too. As for the third place

00:59:07 --> 00:59:14

candidate, CNN, oh, CNN ogen. He did better than expected he got 5%

00:59:14 --> 00:59:19

and he could possibly direct his 5% One way or another. He has yet

00:59:19 --> 00:59:25

to make any such endorsement. Okay, well, Erdogan got 49 Almost

00:59:25 --> 00:59:31

50% by himself, okay. He could just do that again, if they just

00:59:31 --> 00:59:32

pull that out.

00:59:37 --> 00:59:40

Okay, the opposition will have to have its work cut out for them

00:59:40 --> 00:59:43

blah, blah, blah, or blah, blah, blah enough it political talk. We

00:59:43 --> 00:59:53

get the idea. And May 28 is in 11 days, so that's going to be

00:59:53 --> 00:59:58

Sunday, after next Sunday, the Sunday after that. Okay, so let's

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

now turn

01:00:00 --> 01:00:04

to your comments and questions we got decent amount of time for open

01:00:04 --> 01:00:09

QA and then we go for dua Wednesday between door and us

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

is the time of day

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

as we all know

01:00:28 --> 01:00:31

let me open up Instagram I have given me some

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

Yeah

01:00:44 --> 01:00:49

how do I get things to go my way? What are the steps? Good? How do I

01:00:49 --> 01:00:53

get things to go my way? What are the steps? Well, I'm not a life

01:00:53 --> 01:00:57

coach, but I can give you some very basic things.

01:00:58 --> 01:01:03

And those very basic things of how anyone who has succeeded in

01:01:03 --> 01:01:06

anything you got to ask yourself, What did I do

01:01:07 --> 01:01:13

to succeed? Chances are your attention was directed at this

01:01:13 --> 01:01:18

matter. Right your your he always had your attention on this. And

01:01:18 --> 01:01:20

you had a very very strong desire for it.

01:01:21 --> 01:01:23

You look at anything like

01:01:24 --> 01:01:26

behind the desk today's heavy

01:01:27 --> 01:01:31

North Brunswick football captain, right he was the captain of what

01:01:31 --> 01:01:36

the the rushers right. The Raiders, but the but the rush

01:01:37 --> 01:01:41

line, the defensive line, right. What do they call it? D line,

01:01:41 --> 01:01:45

right. It was the captain of the defensive line in a team that went

01:01:45 --> 01:01:49

to the state championships three times in a row. Right? The Buffalo

01:01:49 --> 01:01:52

Bills of high school football because they went three times in a

01:01:52 --> 01:01:54

row. They almost went the fourth time did they go the fourth time

01:01:54 --> 01:01:57

that the crash that season? When they when they pulled you off the

01:01:57 --> 01:02:02

team? What for what a little see? It's ridiculous, right? Sorry if

01:02:02 --> 01:02:05

that was private information, but but because the bills went four

01:02:05 --> 01:02:09

times and lost all four times. So you guys needed to go that fourth

01:02:09 --> 01:02:12

time to be the Buffalo Bills of high school of New Jersey high

01:02:12 --> 01:02:17

school football. So but when you when you succeeded at that, it's

01:02:17 --> 01:02:23

because you had a focus and attention was was on that, right?

01:02:23 --> 01:02:27

Your attention was on this. And in your focus and attention to being

01:02:27 --> 01:02:32

upon something, it just some way shape and form your your your mind

01:02:32 --> 01:02:36

never drifts away from it. And the reason people succeed, or fail at

01:02:36 --> 01:02:41

things as more simple than my opinion than you, then you think

01:02:41 --> 01:02:45

it's just you got distracted from it. Right? What is the path to

01:02:45 --> 01:02:49

being close to Allah? Remembrance, vicar, just remember, remember,

01:02:49 --> 01:02:54

remember, remember, right? So it's, it's, it's got to remind

01:02:54 --> 01:02:59

yourself of something so many times in life, that it becomes

01:02:59 --> 01:03:02

impossible for you to ever be distracted from it.

01:03:04 --> 01:03:05

Okay, so.

01:03:06 --> 01:03:11

And that's the first thing. And the second thing is when is to ask

01:03:11 --> 01:03:12

people who have done it.

01:03:13 --> 01:03:16

Just to be in touch with people who have done it, like you can't

01:03:16 --> 01:03:19

go to the gym and do this stuff by yourself. You got to hang out with

01:03:19 --> 01:03:21

guys who have been in the gym for a couple of years, they'll tell

01:03:21 --> 01:03:24

you, Oh, don't do this, don't do that. Do this do that. They keep

01:03:24 --> 01:03:27

you going to give you some advice. So the two things that I would

01:03:27 --> 01:03:32

tell a person who wants to succeed at something is that, and I don't

01:03:32 --> 01:03:34

do this life coach stuff. I'm not into that stuff. It's not my

01:03:34 --> 01:03:34

thing.

01:03:36 --> 01:03:39

But I think these are really good pieces of advice is to always keep

01:03:39 --> 01:03:42

your focus on it. You got to remind yourself, you always got to

01:03:42 --> 01:03:45

remind yourself, number one, you have to remind yourself of the

01:03:45 --> 01:03:48

thing, but also why you love the thing, too. And you got to stay

01:03:48 --> 01:03:51

happy with it. Right? I'm going to talk about like learning Arabic.

01:03:52 --> 01:03:56

Soon as you get frustrated. So put aside, you cannot be frustrated

01:03:56 --> 01:03:59

and unhappy doing something, you're not going to do it you're

01:03:59 --> 01:04:02

going to hate it. Your mind is going to say I have to do this but

01:04:02 --> 01:04:05

you you will hate it. You're not doing you're not enjoying it, put

01:04:05 --> 01:04:10

it aside, right until you like it again. So you always got to try to

01:04:10 --> 01:04:13

like what you're doing. But the second thing is hanging out with

01:04:13 --> 01:04:15

people who've done it before. Right?

01:04:16 --> 01:04:19

Simple hang out with the people who've done this stuff before.

01:04:20 --> 01:04:24

Right? So if you do that, I don't know how you can succeed.

01:04:26 --> 01:04:26

So

01:04:27 --> 01:04:30

some non life coaching advice

01:04:35 --> 01:04:36

All right, next.

01:04:38 --> 01:04:40

Remember, I don't really scroll up

01:04:41 --> 01:04:41

and get

01:04:45 --> 01:04:49

please bring back all ama biography videos. Okay, John. So

01:04:49 --> 01:04:52

the code says how to really increase memory and retain

01:04:52 --> 01:04:57

information repetition. Repetition. Read the chapter.

01:04:57 --> 01:04:59

There was a kid never forget this in

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

biology and science. In high school everyone go to Earth

01:05:03 --> 01:05:04

Science.

01:05:06 --> 01:05:12

Right? But I qualified for the level above that. Okay.

01:05:14 --> 01:05:18

Okay, I ended up I can't say I qualified for it. But I ended up

01:05:18 --> 01:05:21

in the level of science above that. So we were freshmen, me and

01:05:21 --> 01:05:26

another kid. And we were all with sophomores, and even some juniors.

01:05:27 --> 01:05:30

And so it was intimidating because the teachers teaching at a high

01:05:30 --> 01:05:34

level higher level than we expected. And this kid next to me,

01:05:34 --> 01:05:39

he seemed like he aced everything. But he didn't seem like a very

01:05:40 --> 01:05:43

different kid than anybody else. So I said, Man, what's your

01:05:43 --> 01:05:46

secret, he said, Nothing. I just read the chapter, take notes, then

01:05:46 --> 01:05:51

read the chapter again, then analyze my notes again, improve

01:05:51 --> 01:05:55

the notes. Then I read the chapter a third time, then I improve my

01:05:55 --> 01:05:56

notes again.

01:05:57 --> 01:05:59

And if they're no good, I scrap it, rewrite another chapter of

01:05:59 --> 01:06:02

notes. Then I read the chapter a fourth time and do it again. And

01:06:02 --> 01:06:05

then the fifth time and do it again. Like that's it. That's the

01:06:05 --> 01:06:08

name of the game. He said, Yeah. So maybe for two hours, we'll sit

01:06:08 --> 01:06:12

there, read the chapter word for word, take notes, read the chapter

01:06:12 --> 01:06:15

again, improve the notes, read the chapter third time,

01:06:16 --> 01:06:19

improve the notes even more. And then by that time, his notes are

01:06:19 --> 01:06:23

so good. That and he's like, it's in his can't get it out of his

01:06:23 --> 01:06:26

memory at this point. Like, can you get fat out of your memory?

01:06:27 --> 01:06:30

Unless you went into coma? Right or had a stroke? May Allah protect

01:06:30 --> 01:06:33

everyone from that but you can't ever get out of your head? But can

01:06:33 --> 01:06:37

you forget potentially speaking, could you potentially forget

01:06:41 --> 01:06:42

your mom's phone number.

01:06:43 --> 01:06:47

Of course you can write because you as soon as you get it, you put

01:06:47 --> 01:06:51

it on you save it, you don't look at it again. Right? So you may

01:06:51 --> 01:06:55

have memorized it for a while but you you save it as mom, so you

01:06:55 --> 01:06:58

don't know it anymore. So it's the repetition. So if you want help

01:06:58 --> 01:07:02

with memory, there's no tricks to memory. There literally is no

01:07:02 --> 01:07:05

tricks. The more champions they say their heads is amazing the

01:07:05 --> 01:07:08

Moroccans have is amazing. The puck standards or hips is amazing.

01:07:09 --> 01:07:12

Every everywhere in the OMA they have amazing hips.

01:07:14 --> 01:07:14

Okay.

01:07:16 --> 01:07:19

I ask a brother who went to Mauritania from our town, or

01:07:19 --> 01:07:23

Masjid said was the technique. He said they sit there I don't have a

01:07:23 --> 01:07:25

Misbah on me. They sit there with a mismatch.

01:07:27 --> 01:07:31

And they repeat five eyes. That's it just five A's. That's written

01:07:31 --> 01:07:32

on a board.

01:07:33 --> 01:07:36

He leans on the board like this, and he got to misbehave in one

01:07:36 --> 01:07:40

hand, and he will recite those five verses 300 times.

01:07:42 --> 01:07:49

It'd be numb. Bill may take him from morning all the way to.

01:07:50 --> 01:07:54

Okay, then he gives a test smear. If the test smear is rusty,

01:07:55 --> 01:08:01

another 300 times all the way to loss of 600 times. The poor kids

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

is num drilled. But why can they do it successfully? Because

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

there's nothing else to do and more genuine. It's not like he's

01:08:08 --> 01:08:11

sacrificing anything. Hey, I got nothing to do anyway, right?

01:08:12 --> 01:08:15

Except for make sure the goat didn't walk off for this. And then

01:08:15 --> 01:08:18

the goats skinny miskeen goat anyway, he's can't even walk. It's

01:08:18 --> 01:08:24

so skinny and drought. Right? So that's why sometimes when there's

01:08:24 --> 01:08:30

not much to do, that's it's gifts from Allah. But they call it

01:08:30 --> 01:08:34

bottom bottom because it feels like it's literally etching into

01:08:34 --> 01:08:40

your head. Okay, and so 600 times imagine you have a passage the

01:08:40 --> 01:08:45

size of it as exhibited outdoors in Zela it's like a couple lines,

01:08:45 --> 01:08:49

seven, eight lines, six lines less than that even and you repeat it

01:08:49 --> 01:08:50

500 times

01:08:52 --> 01:08:57

is it possible not to know it? Now guess what? You get a break. after

01:08:57 --> 01:08:58

that.

01:08:59 --> 01:09:04

After Isha you go back to another set of verses that you did maybe a

01:09:04 --> 01:09:12

longer passage and you repeat that 100 times like a page or so or, or

01:09:12 --> 01:09:15

less than a page and you repeat that probably until you're you

01:09:15 --> 01:09:19

fall asleep from memory you're repeating

01:09:20 --> 01:09:25

they do this and the whole Quran is 600 pages. So 600 days is two

01:09:25 --> 01:09:26

years

01:09:27 --> 01:09:30

takes to do if you were to do this with every single page of the

01:09:30 --> 01:09:32

Quran, that's two years, right?

01:09:34 --> 01:09:39

Give or take remove the extra, you know 54 days just for the sake of

01:09:39 --> 01:09:43

the year you are sick you traveled whatever. Two years. That's why

01:09:43 --> 01:09:47

they they go there they come back that Quran is never leaving them.

01:09:48 --> 01:09:52

Right the so it's just repetition non stop repetition.

01:09:54 --> 01:09:59

Yeah, same same story, but less less of the six it wasn't 600

01:10:00 --> 01:10:04

He studied in Jeddah, and he did is did his heart like he became a

01:10:04 --> 01:10:07

hospital over there. And he was telling me like, what they would

01:10:07 --> 01:10:10

do every day is like they would first like first thing they would

01:10:10 --> 01:10:14

do is like, closer myself and, like, read off what they memorize

01:10:14 --> 01:10:19

every single Cyrillic memorize. Oh, and before test me. And then

01:10:19 --> 01:10:22

they would open. And then whatever new eyes are taking each eye, or

01:10:22 --> 01:10:27

they would repeat 50 times looking and closing myself 50 times not

01:10:27 --> 01:10:30

looking. Yeah, each eye, they would do that. Engraved. That's

01:10:30 --> 01:10:34

it. So someone's I can't memorize this sort of yes, you can. Yes,

01:10:34 --> 01:10:39

you can. Every single human being can memorize, right? The proof of

01:10:39 --> 01:10:41

the means you memorize your name, you memorize a lot of other things

01:10:41 --> 01:10:44

you name and you memorize all the names of your relatives. Why is

01:10:44 --> 01:10:49

that? You memorized all the street signs. Like, if there's a red sign

01:10:49 --> 01:10:54

with eight sides, you know, it's a stop sign. So everybody can

01:10:54 --> 01:10:57

memorize. It's just the amount of time, okay?

01:11:00 --> 01:11:02

And science is one of those things that has to be studied. You can't

01:11:02 --> 01:11:06

be smart in science. It can be smart in logic and philosophy and

01:11:06 --> 01:11:11

stuff like that. But when it comes to science, it's a mass of

01:11:11 --> 01:11:16

transmitted observed knowledge. Someone else observed it, someone

01:11:16 --> 01:11:20

else documented it, and they're transmitting it to you. And you

01:11:20 --> 01:11:24

just got to memorize doctors to me that they that it's they memorize

01:11:24 --> 01:11:30

a lot. Their way of studying is very much similar. Okay, to the

01:11:30 --> 01:11:34

way of studying of of hymns of Quran. Okay.

01:11:37 --> 01:11:38

Good.

01:11:39 --> 01:11:43

All right, next question. The best ID Empire had a similar problem.

01:11:43 --> 01:11:46

They wanted to learn from the technology in many cultures and

01:11:46 --> 01:11:50

let her borrow Greek philosophy from ancient Greece, which caused

01:11:50 --> 01:11:54

division out of the ambassador, Empire went around looking for

01:11:54 --> 01:11:56

that stuff, but they found the libraries, they're in their

01:11:56 --> 01:11:59

country, right. And they were a people who cared about knowledge

01:11:59 --> 01:12:03

and books. So they open those books up. And they weren't like a

01:12:03 --> 01:12:06

closed system where they disallowed you to read this or

01:12:06 --> 01:12:08

read that people read it. And of course, whenever something new

01:12:08 --> 01:12:14

comes in the OMA, there's going to be three things that happen. Okay?

01:12:14 --> 01:12:18

There's going to be some people who say, Stop, don't forget this,

01:12:18 --> 01:12:21

don't even look at it, there's going to be somebody watching I

01:12:21 --> 01:12:23

looked at, I'm going to look at it, and he's going to look at it

01:12:23 --> 01:12:28

and become in love with it, and maybe deviate from the culture or

01:12:28 --> 01:12:31

the religion, and then there's going to be a correction, that's

01:12:31 --> 01:12:34

going to be something in the middle. Allah is not going to

01:12:34 --> 01:12:37

create something, right? And bring it to us for no reason. There's a

01:12:37 --> 01:12:42

wisdom for everything. Right? And so we're going to come to a middle

01:12:43 --> 01:12:47

and use this properly. Right? Wherever Islam went, This is what

01:12:47 --> 01:12:52

happened. Okay. There were new things. Some people said no, other

01:12:52 --> 01:12:55

people said, why not? Let's check it out. And they deviated as a

01:12:55 --> 01:12:58

result of that. And then there's always something in the middle.

01:12:58 --> 01:13:02

That is a common ground. So that seems to be the history of Islam

01:13:02 --> 01:13:03

and all things.

01:13:05 --> 01:13:09

Lavon Brown, do you know that the ambassador to religious freedom is

01:13:09 --> 01:13:11

a Muslim, Rashad Hussain.

01:13:12 --> 01:13:15

No, I did not know that. Did not know that.

01:13:17 --> 01:13:20

Mohammed says, What do you think? Can you look up his bio brother or

01:13:20 --> 01:13:24

Saddam Hussein? What do you think about the Arab Muslims who want to

01:13:24 --> 01:13:29

move to the west for a living and study secular sciences? I mean, I

01:13:29 --> 01:13:31

can't put blame on them.

01:13:34 --> 01:13:37

Me, okay, there's rulings about going to live with non Muslims.

01:13:37 --> 01:13:39

But there's also exceptions to rulings.

01:13:40 --> 01:13:48

With who, Who here thinks that place like Algeria or place like

01:13:48 --> 01:13:54

Egypt has a bright, promising future. Okay. There are Philippi

01:13:54 --> 01:13:58

statements about moving from a Muslim country to a non Islamic

01:13:58 --> 01:14:03

country. But yet at the same time, you're just you're dealing with

01:14:03 --> 01:14:08

people who have human nature, wants to grow and advance and live

01:14:08 --> 01:14:12

well and have opportunities. Do you know how depressing it is?

01:14:13 --> 01:14:17

Right? When you're, you're in a country where there's no concept

01:14:17 --> 01:14:18

whatsoever

01:14:20 --> 01:14:24

of a possibility of a future for you. When you go open your door in

01:14:24 --> 01:14:28

the morning and you see the whole road is all the guys are just

01:14:28 --> 01:14:33

sitting out on lawn chairs are doing nothing. Right.

01:14:35 --> 01:14:37

It's depressing. So

01:14:39 --> 01:14:44

all right, what let's see who this Rashad Hussain is. He is serves as

01:14:44 --> 01:14:47

the Principal Advisor to the Secretary of State I guess and

01:14:47 --> 01:14:51

advisor to the President on religious freedom. He leads the

01:14:51 --> 01:14:55

department's efforts to monitor religious freedom abuses

01:14:55 --> 01:14:58

persecution and discrimination worldwide. He also oversees

01:14:58 --> 01:14:59

policies and programs addressed

01:15:00 --> 01:15:04

concerns and works to build diverse and dynamic partnerships

01:15:05 --> 01:15:09

with the broadest range of civil society with equitable and

01:15:09 --> 01:15:12

meaningful inclusion of faith actors globally.

01:15:13 --> 01:15:16

Okay, so he was a director at the National Security Council's

01:15:16 --> 01:15:17

partnership

01:15:18 --> 01:15:22

and global engagement directorate, President Obama appointed Hussein

01:15:22 --> 01:15:27

to serve as his special envoy to the OYC Organization of Islamic

01:15:27 --> 01:15:28

Cooperation.

01:15:29 --> 01:15:33

All right, Hussein has worked on the House Judiciary Committee. All

01:15:33 --> 01:15:38

right, he received his JD from Yale Law. And he was the editor of

01:15:38 --> 01:15:43

the Yale Law Journal. Those are like the two highest credentials

01:15:43 --> 01:15:47

in law, Yale Law and to be the editor of the EO Law Journal. And

01:15:47 --> 01:15:50

he has a Master's in Public Administration in Arabic and

01:15:50 --> 01:15:55

Islamic State studies from Harvard. He holds a bachelor's

01:15:55 --> 01:16:00

degree in poli sci and philosophy from UNC Chapel Hill. And he's

01:16:00 --> 01:16:05

also taught at adjunct professor of law at Georgetown University's

01:16:05 --> 01:16:10

Law Center, and Georgetown School of Foreign Services. He's a Texan.

01:16:11 --> 01:16:15

And He's an avid basketball fan. Okay, so he's a highly

01:16:15 --> 01:16:18

accomplished Muslim, May Allah guide him to what is best, right?

01:16:18 --> 01:16:22

And many times, let me tell you, in our circles of students of

01:16:22 --> 01:16:26

knowledge, that we immediately look at the like, awkward

01:16:26 --> 01:16:29

implications of things of people and things like that, which is,

01:16:29 --> 01:16:33

understand what I'm saying, but also want to point out to

01:16:34 --> 01:16:44

Allah subhanaw, Taala has, he can give support to the deen in ways

01:16:45 --> 01:16:46

that we don't understand.

01:16:47 --> 01:16:51

And through people who may we may disapprove of, I'm not saying him,

01:16:51 --> 01:16:53

I'm just saying because generally people say, you know, politicians,

01:16:53 --> 01:16:56

they just write them off. Most of them in politics, he must be a bad

01:16:56 --> 01:17:00

guy must be a liberal or whatever. So before we go to that, which you

01:17:00 --> 01:17:06

may end up, but nonetheless, we have to understand the perspective

01:17:07 --> 01:17:10

of people far from the Islamic community.

01:17:11 --> 01:17:15

Far from it, they do not see liberal, Sunni, Shia, they just

01:17:15 --> 01:17:16

see Muslim.

01:17:17 --> 01:17:22

Right? That's all they see. So there may be a great wisdom, by,

01:17:22 --> 01:17:25

by and having a lot of Muslims in these positions.

01:17:26 --> 01:17:28

And I just want people to open their mind to that possibility.

01:17:29 --> 01:17:31

I'm not does not mean that

01:17:32 --> 01:17:36

things are always correct that they do or valid or we stand with

01:17:36 --> 01:17:40

it. No, we probably wouldn't wouldn't. Especially the political

01:17:40 --> 01:17:42

fields, especially the

01:17:44 --> 01:17:45

and field of entertainment.

01:17:46 --> 01:17:51

But just the word Muslim is something that and the identity of

01:17:51 --> 01:17:56

a Muslim is something that is now going to be on the radar of

01:17:56 --> 01:18:00

somebody. Right, who had never heard of this Deen before. That is

01:18:00 --> 01:18:04

one of the wisdoms. So remember, the prophets I sent him said, and

01:18:04 --> 01:18:06

this is taking in like the extreme.

01:18:08 --> 01:18:11

Not saying that these are any of these people, but I'm saying Allah

01:18:11 --> 01:18:15

will sada will support this religion by a profligate man. Why?

01:18:15 --> 01:18:18

Because in the eyes of some people, that's the only exposure

01:18:18 --> 01:18:21

to Islam they'll ever get. And when they look around, and all

01:18:21 --> 01:18:23

over the White House pages, all these policies ton of Muslims

01:18:23 --> 01:18:26

everywhere, you can start to feel like alright, Muslims part of

01:18:26 --> 01:18:30

this. Now, when they go, and somebody is investigating from the

01:18:30 --> 01:18:34

outside, now, Islam is something on the radar. So the reason I'm

01:18:34 --> 01:18:39

saying this is that a lot of times, we who are always that

01:18:39 --> 01:18:42

we're reading all these books, and this is our loyalty. And this is

01:18:42 --> 01:18:46

our religion, and this is what we love. And clearly the world of

01:18:46 --> 01:18:49

entertainment and politics, you don't have many, many people, if

01:18:49 --> 01:18:55

any, who are, you know, able or willing to live by these ideas?

01:18:55 --> 01:19:01

Okay, which is which is, is the truth. So we immediately discount

01:19:01 --> 01:19:05

them, and there are the liberals and there, yes, that may all be

01:19:05 --> 01:19:07

true about their positions, but there's a wisdom while I was

01:19:07 --> 01:19:12

putting them there. The Mongols when they came in, after his

01:19:12 --> 01:19:16

generation, they entered Islam. Do you think that they entered like

01:19:16 --> 01:19:19

the correct Islam? They had their own version going on, which

01:19:19 --> 01:19:23

probably most folks are, which I mean, what is it this is tough,

01:19:23 --> 01:19:26

but they call themselves Muslims right? Now, the next generation

01:19:26 --> 01:19:30

says, Okay, we're Muslims, the next generation are Muslims.

01:19:30 --> 01:19:33

Alright, well, when he wants to do it now, when when one of those

01:19:33 --> 01:19:37

kids wants to be one of those Mongol kids wants to practice his

01:19:37 --> 01:19:41

religion, he's not going to go to his politician dead. For

01:19:41 --> 01:19:45

knowledge, he's going to go to the shoe. Boom, within one or two

01:19:45 --> 01:19:48

generations. Islam had spread properly amongst the Mongols. They

01:19:48 --> 01:19:52

were regular Muslims after that. So we got to also just

01:19:53 --> 01:19:57

keep that in mind. And that's my perspective when I deal with this

01:19:57 --> 01:19:59

concept of Muslims in these spaces and

01:20:00 --> 01:20:03

These spheres. And while knowing 100% What they're doing is

01:20:03 --> 01:20:05

probably unlawful.

01:20:06 --> 01:20:10

Or their beliefs are probably not correct. Yet I view it with the

01:20:10 --> 01:20:15

perspective that Allah has wisdom, why he's put them there. So that's

01:20:15 --> 01:20:18

important for us to know that doesn't mean it doesn't justify

01:20:18 --> 01:20:22

what they're doing. We don't rule by that, of course, we don't make

01:20:22 --> 01:20:25

rulings at all, we just transmitting rulings. But it's,

01:20:25 --> 01:20:27

it's something to keep in mind.

01:20:29 --> 01:20:29

All right.

01:20:30 --> 01:20:34

So Lavon thank you for giving us that piece of information, a

01:20:34 --> 01:20:35

highly

01:20:38 --> 01:20:43

educated, successful person, May Allah guide him to what is good,

01:20:43 --> 01:20:49

and to use his position of power, you know, not to forget to use it

01:20:49 --> 01:20:52

for the sake of Allah, Allah was the one who put us in any namah

01:20:52 --> 01:20:55

that we have, and we have to use it. And that doesn't always

01:20:55 --> 01:20:58

necessitate that it's used directly for the dean and theology

01:20:58 --> 01:21:03

but for the other principles that Islam has for the poor for the

01:21:03 --> 01:21:09

miskeen right for the victims for the the the downtrodden use it for

01:21:09 --> 01:21:09

that.

01:21:10 --> 01:21:15

And and so far as a person disobeys the the religion

01:21:16 --> 01:21:20

make us too far and don't alter the deen. Right. That's how and

01:21:20 --> 01:21:23

Whenever someone's out there and they're like, nominally in Islam,

01:21:23 --> 01:21:27

and but they got a good heart and good intention. So listen, what

01:21:27 --> 01:21:29

are we going to do? You're probably going to do it anyway.

01:21:29 --> 01:21:32

Regardless what I say. But don't try to change Islam just say

01:21:32 --> 01:21:36

stuff. I'm wrong for doing this. And there are many people in lines

01:21:36 --> 01:21:40

of business. They're good at what they do. But part of it is haram

01:21:41 --> 01:21:46

is at the very least do not alter the deen. Just admit that you have

01:21:46 --> 01:21:47

your own shortcomings.

01:21:48 --> 01:21:49

Next question.

01:21:52 --> 01:21:56

malerkotla Comala Bathukamma lucky enough Tsinghua hidden Allah

01:21:56 --> 01:21:57

Simeon Busey. What does it mean?

01:21:59 --> 01:22:06

That your, your creation and your resurrection is no different than

01:22:06 --> 01:22:11

that of one soul? What does it mean? It means that it takes no

01:22:12 --> 01:22:17

hardship, no effort from ALLAH SubhanA which Allah Allah does not

01:22:17 --> 01:22:20

expend energy does not have hardship. Nothing is difficult. In

01:22:20 --> 01:22:23

the same way that he created one so you say you created one human

01:22:23 --> 01:22:27

being in our minds is easy, right? For Allah says configure when you

01:22:27 --> 01:22:31

see one human being Allah is telling you, all of your existence

01:22:32 --> 01:22:36

is no different. configured and you're all your death and your

01:22:36 --> 01:22:39

real existence. There. The resurrection is no different.

01:22:39 --> 01:22:43

That's why we say when the Muslim evolution is so called Muslim

01:22:43 --> 01:22:47

evolutionists, they, they sort of laugh at the idea that the

01:22:47 --> 01:22:53

Orthodox position that Allah created Adam directly. Okay? And

01:22:53 --> 01:22:55

they say no, no, and they traveled trace it back, I say to them,

01:22:56 --> 01:23:01

okay, hypothetically, you trace back Adam to some other mammal,

01:23:01 --> 01:23:05

then that mammal was eventually a billion years before that, an

01:23:05 --> 01:23:09

amoeba, or whatever, I don't even know what they're cooking up these

01:23:09 --> 01:23:13

days. And that eventually was one cell. Okay.

01:23:14 --> 01:23:18

And that eventually was one particle. Where did the particle

01:23:18 --> 01:23:21

come from you as a so called Muslim evolutionist would have to

01:23:21 --> 01:23:26

admit that Allah says config can be the first piece of matter.

01:23:27 --> 01:23:30

There was a time when there was no matter right? Then there wasn't

01:23:30 --> 01:23:34

matter. Allah says config when, in your mind. Do you think that that

01:23:34 --> 01:23:39

config goons for Allah to create one particle of matter, okay, is

01:23:39 --> 01:23:45

any different? Then his direct creation of an entire universe?

01:23:45 --> 01:23:48

For Allah, it's no different. These people seems to have some

01:23:48 --> 01:23:52

anthropomorphism, as if yes, he can easily create a particle but

01:23:52 --> 01:23:57

he can't create a world yes, he can. So there's no confer Kuhn

01:23:58 --> 01:24:02

could be an illness. That's how Allah creates B, and it is whether

01:24:02 --> 01:24:06

it's a particle, the smallest possible particle, or it's an

01:24:06 --> 01:24:10

entire universe is no different for Allah. There is no big and

01:24:10 --> 01:24:15

small with Allah. Right? It's not like the particle is very small

01:24:15 --> 01:24:17

for Allah the universe.

01:24:18 --> 01:24:23

As if it's like, you know, sizable in comparison to Allah. Allah is

01:24:23 --> 01:24:29

not physical, nor is no big and small for ALLAH SubhanA wa. So why

01:24:29 --> 01:24:33

is it so difficult for you to believe that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada

01:24:33 --> 01:24:36

created Adam directly with no antecedent?

01:24:37 --> 01:24:38

Why is it so hard to believe?

01:24:40 --> 01:24:43

And it was repeated so many times that He created Adam that way.

01:24:46 --> 01:24:51

And he creates the human being, in multiple ways the human being Adam

01:24:51 --> 01:24:55

was created directly with no antecedent. Okay, no mammal before

01:24:55 --> 01:24:59

him. No mother gave birth to him. However, Eve was created from Adam

01:25:01 --> 01:25:05

All other humans were created from a mother and father that gave

01:25:05 --> 01:25:06

birth to them.

01:25:07 --> 01:25:12

Jesus Ali Salam was created in the womb of Mary with no male that's

01:25:12 --> 01:25:15

four different ways all human beings will be resurrected in the

01:25:15 --> 01:25:18

same way that's five different ways of creation of the human

01:25:18 --> 01:25:18

being

01:25:21 --> 01:25:23

sick the next question before we go to our topic

01:25:26 --> 01:25:30

any Islamic wazifa for increasing memory no no shortcuts no tricks

01:25:30 --> 01:25:32

no zinkerz repetition

01:25:34 --> 01:25:40

no shortcuts? No wuzzy fuzz no tricks not to say was effective

01:25:40 --> 01:25:42

tricks but don't look for a shortcut is there a thicker that

01:25:42 --> 01:25:44

can get my memory is there a thicker that you can lose weight?

01:25:44 --> 01:25:46

No. run on the treadmill

01:25:48 --> 01:25:53

right repetition hard work non stop non stop non stop. Okay

01:25:53 --> 01:25:57

refuse to go away. That's how you're gonna get memory that's how

01:25:57 --> 01:25:59

you're going to lose weight. That's how you're going to learn

01:25:59 --> 01:26:01

fifth that's how you're going to learn Arabic.

01:26:02 --> 01:26:06

Are we satisfied with appeasement says the dark Maverick Biden also

01:26:06 --> 01:26:10

told the Muslim mayor of Prospect Park to take a hike no not

01:26:10 --> 01:26:11

satisfied with appeasement No.

01:26:14 --> 01:26:17

So the court says again that question for the members he said

01:26:17 --> 01:26:20

the court knows how to see so the court is very persistent and

01:26:20 --> 01:26:23

asking the question how many times ask the question listen, if you

01:26:23 --> 01:26:25

recite the verses as many times as you ask the question you'd

01:26:25 --> 01:26:30

memorize right so he has demonstrated his ability to pick

01:26:30 --> 01:26:34

that go away keep going nonstop nonstop nonstop

01:26:41 --> 01:26:43

and members are new G says the lesson is one letter the

01:26:43 --> 01:26:46

repetition 1000 times Thank you, meaning the lesson short but

01:26:46 --> 01:26:47

repeated many times

01:26:49 --> 01:26:52

do I for increasing in knowledge or visit near Elma?

01:26:53 --> 01:26:54

Okay.

01:26:56 --> 01:26:59

Can you increase the volume of the mic?

01:27:01 --> 01:27:02

The talk about you Okay.

01:27:08 --> 01:27:12

Lavon says we're not commenting on the person just telling you he

01:27:12 --> 01:27:15

exists Yeah, why and what's nothing wrong with knowing he

01:27:15 --> 01:27:18

exists as someone was? I think dark Maverick was saying that this

01:27:18 --> 01:27:22

is appeasement. No, we're not settling for anything. But if

01:27:22 --> 01:27:25

something's there there's there's always a wisdom

01:27:27 --> 01:27:28

there's always a wisdom

01:27:31 --> 01:27:35

How do we balance between criticizing others skill set and

01:27:35 --> 01:27:37

praising yours while not being boastful?

01:27:41 --> 01:27:43

There's no boasting when you're applying for a job and you're

01:27:43 --> 01:27:47

saying I know how to do this job. It's objective fact I know how to

01:27:47 --> 01:27:50

do it. This person I'll tell you why he doesn't know how to do the

01:27:50 --> 01:27:52

sign that he doesn't know how to do it. Is this this in this design

01:27:52 --> 01:27:55

that I know how to do is this in this in this you're allowed to do

01:27:55 --> 01:27:57

that? There's no you just have to check your heart that's all.

01:27:59 --> 01:28:03

kickboxing class and swimming class is women's only but they

01:28:03 --> 01:28:07

have cameras there for emergency security. Then you cover

01:28:08 --> 01:28:09

you have to cover

01:28:10 --> 01:28:11

you'd have to cover

01:28:12 --> 01:28:16

for memorizing I was reading three words three times and writing

01:28:16 --> 01:28:18

their first letters in Latin alphabet and was remembering the

01:28:18 --> 01:28:22

words from these three letters. Is it okay to do it as allowed? Yes.

01:28:24 --> 01:28:26

For the swimming and the kickboxing the scarf needs to be

01:28:26 --> 01:28:29

taken off then you need to ask the it's the Muslims that are

01:28:29 --> 01:28:29

involved.

01:28:30 --> 01:28:33

And you need to ask them what's happening with the security

01:28:33 --> 01:28:34

footage.

01:28:35 --> 01:28:38

Okay, if someone hits their head, isn't that security footage

01:28:39 --> 01:28:43

going into the hands of other authorities? Yes, it is. So

01:28:43 --> 01:28:48

therefore, if that's a chance, then therefore, we can't really

01:28:48 --> 01:28:50

take our hijab off.

01:29:10 --> 01:29:15

So because I don't see montone What's this? I don't get that.

01:29:22 --> 01:29:25

Always the thought has Hadith applied to sacred knowledge to

01:29:25 --> 01:29:29

whoever follows a path to seek knowledge Allah will make path of

01:29:29 --> 01:29:30

Jannah easy for him.

01:29:31 --> 01:29:34

What is this about secular knowledge if done for the sake of

01:29:34 --> 01:29:41

Allah? Yes, but mainly for religious knowledge. Because when

01:29:41 --> 01:29:47

you learn, you appreciate the rulings. Right you appreciate. You

01:29:47 --> 01:29:51

understand why Allah has put limits on certain things. And

01:29:51 --> 01:29:54

therefore it becomes easy for you to practice what you understand.

01:29:55 --> 01:29:59

So that's how Allah has made his path agenda easy. When you learn

01:30:00 --> 01:30:03

Do you surround yourself with other learned people? They always

01:30:03 --> 01:30:05

keep you up. They help you up

01:30:12 --> 01:30:12

Yeah.

01:30:13 --> 01:30:16

When you like when you have like a group of guys that are doing Fick

01:30:16 --> 01:30:19

together Yep. It's like trading cards. Like someone will give you

01:30:19 --> 01:30:21

a ruling that Yeah, you didn't know. Yep. And then you'd be like,

01:30:21 --> 01:30:23

oh, yeah, this is another room. That's true. It's just like

01:30:23 --> 01:30:27

trading. You're always bringing something new to the table. Right?

01:30:28 --> 01:30:32

And that's so how those 50 conversations go. Lily says purple

01:30:32 --> 01:30:34

veggies and foods help the brain

01:30:36 --> 01:30:40

such as I guess cabbage, right? Is the only

01:30:41 --> 01:30:44

purple vegetable I know of. There's a root our roots

01:30:44 --> 01:30:45

vegetables.

01:30:46 --> 01:30:49

Taro Taro roots. I don't think they're vegetables

01:30:57 --> 01:31:01

Yeah, you'll you'll become a vegetable fan. If your plumbing

01:31:01 --> 01:31:06

stops working. Right? Then you need festivals. Yeah.

01:31:12 --> 01:31:15

Did he says was there a different ruling about Muslims during the

01:31:15 --> 01:31:16

time of Adam?

01:31:18 --> 01:31:18

Good.

01:31:20 --> 01:31:26

Yes, there was you're allowed to marry any been anyone except your

01:31:26 --> 01:31:27

twin.

01:31:29 --> 01:31:31

anyone except your twin

01:31:32 --> 01:31:34

is who you are allowed to marry.

01:31:35 --> 01:31:40

So your twin was treated like your sister, all the other women you

01:31:40 --> 01:31:45

are allowed to marry? Right? And Adam arranged the marriages. Why?

01:31:46 --> 01:31:52

Because he's the Willie, of all the prospects, right? You want to

01:31:52 --> 01:31:57

marry? You're only going to marry who Adam permits. You have no

01:31:57 --> 01:32:00

other choice therefore say to Adam, arranged all the marriages

01:32:02 --> 01:32:05

and then immediately the next generation.

01:32:07 --> 01:32:11

Good. Then the rules changed, can marry your sister can only marry

01:32:11 --> 01:32:12

your cousin now.

01:32:15 --> 01:32:19

How do we reconcile between dua being pleased with our Allah's

01:32:19 --> 01:32:22

decree and making dua for things in the dunya very easy.

01:32:24 --> 01:32:27

I'm pleased, I'm happy with what Allah has given me. I'm going to

01:32:27 --> 01:32:30

enjoy whatever love brings me I'm going to enjoy it.

01:32:31 --> 01:32:35

Yet at the same time, I'm asked for more. There's no limits,

01:32:36 --> 01:32:37

right? Why not? Ask for more?

01:32:40 --> 01:32:43

How do you not get complacent with that? You?

01:32:44 --> 01:32:49

You ask yourself what is it that makes? gets you excited? What is

01:32:49 --> 01:32:52

it that makes you happy? And don't force yourself only be happy with

01:32:52 --> 01:32:55

this know what genuinely makes you happy of Allah's creation? That

01:32:55 --> 01:32:58

you want to get out there they want to learn out there or do or

01:32:58 --> 01:33:03

experience or have and that's what that's what we pray for. You only

01:33:03 --> 01:33:07

pray for something that you really want, right? You can't force

01:33:07 --> 01:33:10

yourself to tell yourself I should want this except the things that

01:33:10 --> 01:33:15

ALLAH SubhanA which Allah has told us to one like Iman, steadfastness

01:33:15 --> 01:33:19

that we Sophie always pray for, but for our personal prayers, you

01:33:19 --> 01:33:22

only pray for something that you really want. So you just got to be

01:33:22 --> 01:33:25

honest with yourself for what do you really want in life?

01:33:28 --> 01:33:31

Okay, am I sinful for being

01:33:32 --> 01:33:36

overweight? I'm not as I'm not gonna say fat but may offend some

01:33:36 --> 01:33:39

people over eating is sinful.

01:33:42 --> 01:33:44

Sorry, not sinful over over eating is discouraged.

01:33:48 --> 01:33:50

Care. I'm sure you can ask your questions here. By the way, we're

01:33:50 --> 01:33:54

we're on YouTube. But you can ask your questions on Instagram to

01:33:55 --> 01:33:59

overeating is discouraged. Being overweight is not good for your

01:33:59 --> 01:34:03

knees. It's not good for your health. It's not good for

01:34:03 --> 01:34:07

yourself. I'm sure I don't think anybody who is out of shape, looks

01:34:07 --> 01:34:11

in the mirror and is happy with what they see. So it's not good

01:34:11 --> 01:34:14

for you. You also don't live by yourself, you live with other

01:34:14 --> 01:34:14

people.

01:34:16 --> 01:34:20

You don't want to be someone that the people that are intimate with

01:34:20 --> 01:34:25

you that share your body are unhappy with like you don't want

01:34:25 --> 01:34:29

them to be unhappy with you. Right because che tonky get in their

01:34:29 --> 01:34:33

head and start saying well, he's no good. Think about somebody

01:34:33 --> 01:34:39

else. That's how fitness starts. So you want to you want to do to

01:34:39 --> 01:34:39

avoid that.

01:34:40 --> 01:34:45

My name says how to defeat self whims. How enough so enough's is

01:34:45 --> 01:34:49

defeated by two things. It Tabas suna with two there all of a

01:34:49 --> 01:34:51

sudden, the Sunnah

01:34:52 --> 01:34:58

and the or the customs, the the general way of behavior of the

01:34:58 --> 01:35:00

righteous people in your time in place.

01:35:00 --> 01:35:01

And that which does not

01:35:04 --> 01:35:11

offend the people or seem odd to the people, you can do it. That's

01:35:11 --> 01:35:14

how you become unique without succumbing to your whims. So

01:35:14 --> 01:35:19

Sharia sunnah and the art of people the art of means the

01:35:19 --> 01:35:23

general way of behavior of the righteous Muslims at that time. So

01:35:23 --> 01:35:26

it's not it's odd behavior for us for example, if you were to gel

01:35:26 --> 01:35:29

your hair up in one spike like a horn, like a rhinoceros, it's just

01:35:30 --> 01:35:33

odd. I can't tell you how. Right it does. That's not the symbol of

01:35:33 --> 01:35:37

any group per se. So I can't tell you It's haram it's just you're

01:35:37 --> 01:35:41

just weird, right? It's odd is not going to be something that no

01:35:41 --> 01:35:45

one's bringing you home to dinner with that so avoid those types of

01:35:45 --> 01:35:46

things that make you

01:35:48 --> 01:35:51

you know, an out not Outcast but everyone's going to be looking at

01:35:51 --> 01:35:55

you like some weirdo you avoid those things now you have there

01:35:55 --> 01:35:59

are other things that make you unique that the people don't the

01:35:59 --> 01:36:02

righteous the pious praying Muslims don't you know shun you

01:36:02 --> 01:36:05

for Yeah, that's that's a fair expression

01:36:11 --> 01:36:16

or flashcards effective for Arabic vocabulary? Only? Yes, only if you

01:36:17 --> 01:36:20

repeat them. Right only if you do it like

01:36:21 --> 01:36:24

hundreds like 3040 ministry in a row

01:36:28 --> 01:36:31

do angels leave when a woman's by herself uncovers her hair and arms

01:36:31 --> 01:36:32

No

01:36:33 --> 01:36:36

mate and that definitely not the answer to that right your deeds

01:36:37 --> 01:36:38

No. I never heard that.

01:36:41 --> 01:36:45

Found says sometimes I get unwanted sexual thoughts that lead

01:36:45 --> 01:36:48

to fluid discharges or break my fast No. It breaks your would do

01:36:48 --> 01:36:51

and you have to clean that part and until the water runs clean,

01:36:51 --> 01:36:54

clean your garment and your skin until the water runs clean.

01:36:58 --> 01:37:00

The clothes look like the Indian flag. Is it?

01:37:02 --> 01:37:02

Is it the Indian fine

01:37:06 --> 01:37:10

I thought the flag was orange. This is more on the bronze right?

01:37:10 --> 01:37:13

Yeah. What is the best way to tell my parents about something they

01:37:13 --> 01:37:17

may have done wrong without being disrespectful. Don't correct your

01:37:17 --> 01:37:19

parents you're not in the position to correct your parents in Islam.

01:37:20 --> 01:37:25

01:37:25 --> 01:37:31

01:37:47 --> 01:37:52

uncertainty regarding things like health test results? How do you

01:37:52 --> 01:37:58

01:37:58 --> 01:38:02

your best source of security and grounding.

01:38:03 --> 01:38:07

Stability, mental stability, emotional stability. I'm so much

01:38:28 --> 01:38:31

has a little amount of gold in the movement to prevent corrosion or

01:38:31 --> 01:38:33

rusting? From what I know the answer is no.

01:38:35 --> 01:38:36

For a man for a woman yes

01:38:41 --> 01:38:44

01:39:32 --> 01:39:36

prophet nor a descendant of Satan or Musa de Sena. No.

01:39:37 --> 01:39:40

I do not think he was a prophet. I've never seen him listed as a

01:39:40 --> 01:39:40

newbie.

01:39:42 --> 01:39:46

How do you convince yourself Allah doesn't hate you if he tests you?

01:39:46 --> 01:39:51

If you respond to the tests with good deeds,

01:39:53 --> 01:39:53

01:41:41 --> 01:41:44

Can you talk about Islamic rulings on correct parenting our big

01:41:44 --> 01:41:46

subject we can't do it today. But we'll do it later

01:41:50 --> 01:41:56

how to build a regular reading habit of educational Islamic books

01:41:56 --> 01:41:59

by many different books so that

01:42:03 --> 01:42:04

buy many Islamic books

01:42:05 --> 01:42:09

so that you never get bored. And make it a habit for make a reading

01:42:09 --> 01:42:14

space for yourself like a library with a comfortable sofa or chair

01:42:14 --> 01:42:18

and a table. Right rather than just like a bookshelf with nothing

01:42:18 --> 01:42:23

in front of it. So that you can take time sit on the chair, read

01:42:23 --> 01:42:27

the book put on table have plenty of bookmarks there. So it becomes

01:42:27 --> 01:42:30

a little nook like a reading nook that you can sit there with a cup

01:42:30 --> 01:42:31

of tea or coffee.

01:42:33 --> 01:42:34

Yeah.

01:42:36 --> 01:42:36

Yeah.

01:42:37 --> 01:42:38

I wrote it.

01:42:39 --> 01:42:43

Oh, good. Put it to the bottom of that. Yeah, that's what we got

01:42:43 --> 01:42:46

here. We got many bookmarks in so many different books.

01:42:47 --> 01:42:51

Okay, and Lily Rose says Don't forget olives are also purple.

01:42:53 --> 01:42:57

What Skittles? What about Skittles? Purple skill Skittles.

01:42:57 --> 01:43:02

Now she did say vegetables yamna says is there wisdom behind every

01:43:02 --> 01:43:05

calamity? Yes, not even every calamity every moment of life has

01:43:05 --> 01:43:06

a wisdom

01:43:23 --> 01:43:24

Why don't Instagram

01:43:29 --> 01:43:29

Yeah, go ahead read.

01:43:31 --> 01:43:35

One important concepts in Islam. Do you think the average layman

01:43:35 --> 01:43:37

was some should know that to strengthen, strengthen their

01:43:37 --> 01:43:39

understanding of their own fitness.

01:43:40 --> 01:43:45

I think people need to understand the origin of our belief in Allah

01:43:45 --> 01:43:48

and His messenger. That's why this book is so important. And I plan

01:43:48 --> 01:43:51

to read from this regularly. The next section that we're going to

01:43:51 --> 01:43:56

read from is how to investigate God's existence. So you should be

01:43:56 --> 01:44:02

absolutely immersed. I don't care if you're a scholar or not. You

01:44:02 --> 01:44:07

should be immersed in the foundation of why I believe in the

01:44:07 --> 01:44:10

prophets of Allah what He was Sanlam why I believe in Allah

01:44:10 --> 01:44:15

subhanaw taala what are the enemies out there that will attack

01:44:15 --> 01:44:17

this belief should be absolutely immersed in it?

01:44:19 --> 01:44:22

Absolutely immersed in it and get this book the divine for critical

01:44:22 --> 01:44:25

minds. So easy to read every chapter is like two and a half

01:44:25 --> 01:44:26

pages

01:44:29 --> 01:44:32

what are the conditions of traveling as a woman if the mom

01:44:32 --> 01:44:35

cannot come with you then you only travel if there's an important

01:44:35 --> 01:44:40

need. Okay, and you train you take the Safe Routes which are like the

01:44:40 --> 01:44:44

most populated routes. So rather than driving yourself in the

01:44:44 --> 01:44:50

countryside, go on the train with a lot of people. Okay, instead of

01:44:50 --> 01:44:55

driving yourself all night and all day by yourself. No go on a train

01:44:55 --> 01:44:58

with a lot of people if you're have to travel because part of the

01:44:58 --> 01:44:59

safety according to

01:45:00 --> 01:45:04

Moraga, TSA and others who wrote about this is that it's surrounded

01:45:04 --> 01:45:08

by people so that you can't be aggressed upon or abused

01:45:12 --> 01:45:14

that's in the understanding

01:45:19 --> 01:45:22

what about parents saw that saw had a saying no, we don't correct

01:45:22 --> 01:45:25

our parents in Islam. You don't correct your parents in Islam.

01:45:26 --> 01:45:30

Yeah, you can invite them to Islam if they're not Muslim you can

01:45:30 --> 01:45:34

invite them to pray but we don't forbid them. We don't tell them

01:45:34 --> 01:45:36

what to do. You will not be accepted from you

01:45:40 --> 01:45:45

kinetic Nomad is your fast on a certain subject over or ongoing

01:45:45 --> 01:45:47

now it's still it's still ongoing. It's ongoing

01:45:54 --> 01:45:57

in the story of Prophet Solomon, there was a man whom Allah said he

01:45:57 --> 01:46:01

had knowledge of the book. Was he a human origin? He was a human

01:46:06 --> 01:46:08

he's a human being and his name was Asif ethnobiol. Here

01:46:10 --> 01:46:14

is a true the Moroccan King descends from added bases. That's

01:46:14 --> 01:46:18

what they say. Popularly said that he is reminded of it, okay.

01:46:24 --> 01:46:26

All right, let us now turn to the wizard.

01:46:28 --> 01:46:31

If I can get my man Habib to open up

01:46:33 --> 01:46:37

the word it's for us. We're going to recite a weird Why'd we do

01:46:37 --> 01:46:41

this? Because everyone's day between the hood on us is a

01:46:41 --> 01:46:45

Saturday job. It is a time where we should devote some time to

01:46:45 --> 01:46:48

Quran and Dhikr because

01:46:50 --> 01:46:54

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made a special made a heavy

01:46:54 --> 01:46:58

dua on Monday. He did not get the answer on Tuesday, he did not get

01:46:58 --> 01:47:03

the answer. On Wednesday, he got the answer. And the companion who

01:47:03 --> 01:47:08

witnessed this his name was jab Abdullah he said that from that

01:47:08 --> 01:47:13

time onward, anytime I had a need I would make dua on Wednesday

01:47:13 --> 01:47:17

between Doha and us and I would see a sign of the answer so but we

01:47:17 --> 01:47:22

don't go straight into dua like this First we do some of that

01:47:23 --> 01:47:27

and we will recite some of God right here these of God is not

01:47:27 --> 01:47:30

limited to Wednesday between Dora and acid it's a general of God

01:47:31 --> 01:47:33

01:47:33 --> 01:47:39

recited every Wednesday, every day after the hook and we will read it

01:47:39 --> 01:47:44

right now. So that we can soften our hearts a little bit from so

01:47:44 --> 01:47:47

much talk about the dunya and politics and all that stuff. And

01:47:47 --> 01:47:50

then in sha Allah to Allah we will stay for have a silent dua.

01:47:51 --> 01:47:54

Everyone will make dua silently then we log off so that we can

01:47:54 --> 01:47:59

encourage ourselves to be doing this these with God and doing this

01:47:59 --> 01:48:01

dick, okay.

A lot of medical will be in La la la,
