Rahman Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah.
While he was on behavoir Manuela, ladies and gentlemen, brothers and
sisters.
Welcome to the Safina society nothing but facts live stream,
where we are back from the for the first time and the only one for
this week.
plug in your headphones, they plugged in good. Because I started
hurting myself for a second their first time back since the UK tour,
which was really nothing short of an of a great tour. And what were
my intentions for the tour. My intentions were purely like to
meet the people to have samba with the Muslims. And that's a huge
country, we have a lot that we could learn from, from what
they've done. And I'm sure that they have made mistakes so that we
can learn from too. So that was the intent. And the intent is I
would love to, like go to these different populous Muslim
countries and even not populous, and just have the constant
sob every few years with them. Let's see, let's go over basically
what happened. So the first we arrived at Harrow, of course, our
traveling partner, we went three guys, we were three of us. And two
of us made it on time, the other one was supposed to be ahead of us
arrive. A third one was our third wheel was supposed to get there
ahead of us.
He ends up
showing up like after us how did that happen? Who knows, right? But
there were a lot of things that nobody knew about. No, no one
expected from that third wheel of our traveling crew.
So we get there and we're hosted by these brothers and mashallah
they, you know, took the time out. It's like 11pm, and it was a week
day. So I really felt almost embarrassed
by you know, being treated so warmly with them on a weeknight
when everybody was, you know, it's a work night, one of them even had
to took the next day off, and then hosted us for breakfast and took
us around. So the first event was in Harrow. Don't know if it's
Harrow? Or is it Harrow on the Hill exactly, because I
can't remember what it is is harrow or Harrow on the hill.
Can't remember, but it was a big mess, should Subhanallah it was a
very big masjid. And there's a lot of masajid that that would be
considered the biggest Masjid in any American city, that were maybe
like the fourth biggest mustard in that town. So that that event was
really good that that event was was on
planting roots of safety. And we talked a lot about the four
ingredients of a community that Mom and Dad Dad gave, sitting at a
mom and her dad said Every community has four ingredients. If
they're healthy, and they're doing their job, they're working
together, you will have strong community and he said the first
one is difficulty. The second one is the worshiper that hit the
third one is the moodier, the administrator, the the leader, the
manager. And the fourth one is the financier, the one who is very
wealthy, and he donates for all this to happen. Because a lot of
these things are not going to be
DACA pay for themselves. So that was that was the first event
heroin was very good event. And a lot of people were from nothing
but facts. Like most of the people that I met afterwards. Oh, this is
what I didn't expect. Like they have a Deb over there. After every
talk. After every talk. A long set I'm right after every single talk.
And people waited and they gave sinarmas Like they it's like a lot
of times you get up and you get to talk systems to people and leave
right but every time what I did not expect every talk from the end
of the talk till about back to get to the hotel is to three hours
minimum from you know the adab of the people to just say son I'm
like, right.
It was like to sleep.
Yes. Like everyone doing to sleep.
Yeah. English just love to make us make sound right. What is it?
What's the joke that like the English they just love to make
lines? Like if two people come to English people find themselves in
a room. They're gonna start a line there. Yeah, so
that's how it is man. Well, they're very organized to and
patients just stand in long lines. So that was the thing then. Hang
it was the next morning. We drove up to Birmingham. And that was my
first time experiencing
England with a car Believe it or not. So my whole time there that I
lived there three and a half years was no car never had a car. And I
wonder if you can get a car with an American license there but
driving and I had I had said like lamented about England how it's
always cloudy. MashAllah seven straight days of sun. Like seven
straight days. Yeah. So we get to Birmingham, Wakata comes down,
scoops us up. We go to Birmingham. Drive the whole we take a train. I
think we made no we took a train. We took of course we had our third
wheel with us which meant what we missed the first train and then we
we took the train up there, and Wakata picks us up there again
he's like hosting us and having a work meeting at the same time. So
these brothers mashallah they did a lot to make this trip happen.
And then we that trip that night was the night that we had to talk
with Sheikh Estrada. But first we we went to another masjid and
there was an there's an imam there. There's a scholar there who
has trained a lot of she, you. His name has morphed in one hour.
We didn't meet him, but we met one of his best students. And that is
His name is Milena. And he's, and again, they host us in their home
and, and then we went to their masjid. And he's he left the
biggest Masjid there. And he is already he's starting up a small
community. It's already exists, but like smaller than MBSE, like
maybe the size of like a third of MBSE small community but very
powerful. And they move quickly, because when you're small, you can
move quickly. Alright, so what I loved about him is he's somebody,
he finished the entire curriculum, right, Dustin is on me. And
Birmingham is one of the few cities that you can finish the
entire curriculum without ever leaving your home, then you leave
the city just for the flavor and to do the rest of futala. But, you
know, the,
the journey to study to seek knowledge to meet the difference,
you have to see the different perspectives, things like that.
But you could finish the whole thing in Birmingham. And I think
it's one of the
only cities
where we're not the only city but it's this one of the cities where
there are many different you could take from it's not like one person
can take you through, or one institution can take many
different institutions can take you through. Now England, there
are many cities where you don't have to leave at all. A lot of
cities, but I don't know if any city has as many as much of a
variety or number of institutions and shoe that can take you from A
to Z. So if you decide is dedicated take you from A to
intermediate. That's what our goal is. So if it's from zero, you're a
complete zero. Right? And you're not even convinced of the dean
that back that's the audience and take them to the intermediate in
all matters of Edison. o'clock. Right. Fick Loga right, whatever
you choose of knowledge, but even strengthening Iman, things like
this. Of course, we can only guide people to the deeds that increase
the men and Allah gods. Okay? That's the meaning of what Aquila
Coleman had, every people have a guide which is a prophet, right?
But Allah is the only guide, right? We have that too in the
Quran, it means that a human guide can guide you to the actions
through which Allah guide you. So that's, that's what it is. So we
did that talk. rested up then went down to the, to the big event, and
that that big event was the masjid was called.
It was like the third or fourth biggest measure, but the most
active Masjid. That's what they told me. Right, was the most
active. And there was a strat and they had they had a committee and
a board that was almost like they praise them a lot. They say, you
know, every time the President is asked, he said go for the best,
you know, do it go for the best. So he's an encouraging elder and I
note that because a lot of communities do not have that. And
a lot of people complain about the elders being always holding the
rope. And the youth sort of like trying to do something but they
can't. Well, this semester was the opposite.
Low Zell's the Messer was called lozol
lozol central mosque. And it was an area where in the past there
was riots. There were riots like in the 90s. Not nothing to do with
domestic but to do with
I guess you could say like it South Asians in general. Right.
Indians and Pakistanis. Were getting pushed around and bullied
around by what are they like African British?
Not Somalians, like just regular black British.
And they ended up having a clash there. So it was it was pretty
well. It's a famous area for that riot. But in any event that Masjid
was packed, I don't think of myself Subhanallah it's a
weeknight.
And that Masjid I would say is probably bigger than what we know
as iCj or reference point. It's bigger than CJ. Oh, it was just
packed and bigger. Yeah, bigger. And it wasn't even the biggest
Masjid in the town. That's what I'm saying in the city. So I look
up and
packs group and then
I gave my talk, Chickasaw to give his talk. We took a few Q and A's.
And then to be honest with you, the real party started. Firstly,
we had about an hour of Tesla, I'm not even kidding. You shook us a
lot of myself in our to slim, that just seemed to me, it's so
important. We don't have believe in these ivory tower people.
Right. That's why the owner always did their things with the people.
And everyone's accessible and approachable. So it was important,
you know, to meet everybody, so many people from the livestream
came on from livestream. And in specific, there were some people
to from my medically fit class. So.
So then
after that, we spent about two hours hanging out with chickens.
Of course, I got tons of books, and talked a lot with chicken
straw. Every evening, a whole spread of food was put out after
the events were treated very generously.
That was that wrapped up that night. Next night, we went to
Bradford. And in Bradford, we began with most of our mounts now
most of them mount is it's the old University of Bradford. Now
Bradford
is I think as populous as Birmingham, it's maybe not as
famous as Birmingham. But I mean in percentage percentage of
Muslims. There's a lot of Muslims in Bradford like I never knew
about Bradford, to be honest with, right? This is the first time I
ever even heard of Bradford. But this one this place they say that
the the number of Muslims in the city, the percentage is very high.
Now when we're talking percentage we it may be 10% of the city, but
they're concentrated. So like the certain part of the city, I'm not
even kidding you you walk in certain areas. Are you driving
with your car?
You might think you can't you can fool yourself and think you're in
a Muslim country. That's how many Muslims were there. Now? Well, in
Bradford they purchased the University of Bradford which is a
nice campus, big campus and they only use one building right now.
Person's University University one. It's a poor city apparently.
So the university basically went broke. Okay. And they sold it to
the Muslims, but the Muslims had to they couldn't just buy it
right. They had to sell them on.
They had to sell them on why like what are they going to do? Is it
going to improve the community etcetera, etcetera. Then they were
pleased with the with the bonus shaker bream himself does not
reside in Bradford. He resides in Liverpool, where he oversees
another project called the Felicity house. I met two of their
teachers and Felicity house. They teach all age groups, except
Abraham, I guess he should have brought him teaches the adults and
there were some sisters from there that taught the the kids so he's
very active up there, but he's in two cities now. Liverpool and
Bradford. Michelle, a lot of my shoot. So after that Jamal, we met
ship yesterday jabber and had lunch with us his job. He's an
Egyptian. I think he's a medical physician and the sheikh at the
same time. So he has his own masjid. And he's a doctor. We sat
with him had a great lunch. It was great opportunity. That's why
England is one of those cities. All every other shoot go to
England. You want to meet Sue from these they're always going to
England. Okay. And so if you're an American, you go to England is
probably where like if if a chef is coming to your to England, you
book your flight and you go, alright, because it's cheap,
cheaper and easier to get the visa. You don't even have to get a
visa, just just go. So I met him. We then went to Bradford MSA. It's
not MSA, they have another organization like Theological
Society or something like that as an Edison organization, and we did
a pot, cast with them with Matthew lock, shake Matthew lock. It was a
great podcast, he was saying stuff. I'm like,
I'm just gonna steal this and give him my next talk. Right? He was
saying stuff and he's kind of come out with a book. Translation of
shifts I use on was on booties, book on love in the Quran.
And he made a point that knocked me off my chair. He said people
look at what
Allah subhanaw taala says he says, Mayor Ted Dominque come and Dini
for Sophia Tila, who Bill Coleman, you have been way ahead Buddha,
whosoever view leaves this religion, Allah will bring forth
the people
whom he loves, and they love.
He loves them, and they love him. So he said, What therefore is the
diagnosis of Ryda?
He said, It's not not being convinced. It's not loving Allah.
Or it's loving something else more than you love Allah.
That is the real diagnosis of Linda. So he says, if you if
someone asks you a question, you answer it with a Columbia answer
or any like Edmund Kalam or anything like that. And they're
not convinced the solution is not more cut up. The solution is not
more arguments. Right? Their mind is being informed by the state of
their heart.
And any Islamic movement that is bereft of love is from Satan.
Right? Because you make people hate this movement, and any action
that makes people hate Islam, that is an action that is,
you know, not necessary. Some actions are necessary, right?
Like it or hate is necessary. That is from Satan, to make people hate
the deen once or the love of a of a, of a mutually exclusive
doctrine.
Right people love contradictory things all the time. Right? I know
people who love scholars, and they like certain presidents, and the
President is ant on Islamic who's like against Muslims. Right. But
for some nationalistic reason, he loves him. So what it is then is
that it's if you love something else more than you love Allah,
then eventually, when those two roads cross, and you come at a
fork in the road, you're gonna choose the other one. So the
apostasy, people leaving Islam is because they didn't have love in
their hearts. And that's the importance of a religion that has
order that has reason that has law that has social aspects, but most
importantly, has a lot of love in it. And the Love does not just
where does it come from? It comes from the belief believers to from
a teaching the Hadith and the verses that you emphasize. And it
comes from the examples out there. Right. The love also comes from
people. So we went to that then that evening. What did we do that
evening, we went from Birmingham. We went to Bolton. And that was a
great event. Bolton was a great event. Bolton was an organization.
It was it was a young organization called the side Institute, named
after one of the scholars of Jordan.
And in that, there was a chef, a scholar, who is their leader,
there is Chef a scholar, and he has books
that I that he gave me too.
So they hosted me for that event. And that event was
I felt it was like the demographic just like MBSE basically, all like
young families. Not necessarily like some of them were like young
single people. But I felt like the most of the young families. And
that was a great event. And which we talked a lot about the Sierra
and then the commute. I actually got the topic wrong a couple
times, like a couple times, a couple times, they actually told
me you got the whole topic wrong. You mixed up the topics, right?
Because I'm like looking at the WhatsApp group. And,
unfortunately, not always paying attention. So I just read the bar
blurb of the message not realizing, Oh, this is for the
other Masjid. Right. Yeah, he gave like different talks. But it's
okay at all. It was all funny. I actually I forgot to tell you
about the first trip we took was to UCL the Islamic Society of they
call them Isaac's Islamic society, instead of MSA of UCL. And there
whenever I go to the call to campuses, there are like minds
everywhere, or like a mind you step on it blow up. So I'm very
cautious on campuses. And I was very cautious. And my four
organizers were like, Oh, this, this tour is gonna be a bust.
Right? Because I was very, very cautious about that talk. And I
kept it very general. And I didn't I was not in the mood, you know,
when you're in the mood to cause some drama. I can cause drama
anytime I'm in the mood right on Twitter, right. But I was just not
in the mood to cause but I felt personally the first import part
of the talk was very important. On how shaytaan does not trick you,
is his goal with us not since that is just a means to the real goal.
The means is sense. And once he gets you to give up on making Toba
and cleaning your heart out, then he gets you to the real
goal of his which is doubt about Allah
having doubts Shovelhead showered and Schubert isn't that the best
talk for university students because they're now in a ton in a
place filled with shirts and shorts. Right? They're filled,
they're, they're in a place that one of the most unhealthy places
to be is University campus. All youth, okay? A lot of nakedness,
especially in the spring, and then ends up filled with Shiva to every
other movement is their, you know, trying to recruit members to
themselves or trying to bring people to their ideology. So I
forgot to mention that when that was actually the first talk we get
pride.
Huge, huge.
Europe is just like
like anything America does, like a plague, like, everyone just
follows America. It's
just like, oh, just look past it. Like, just let it happen. Just
don't say.
No, it's gotten out of hand, the United Nations today in front of
their building, they took down every nation's flag and put pride
flags. So I mean, like, like, 100 How many flags are in front of the
UN? Something is wrong with you people. Like it's excessive. It is
beyond Allah described you properly when he said Musa defin.
Allah says Muslim, even people who don't know the limits of things,
it's like, when is enough enough? That's why all these justice
movements and all these any movement that's based on some kind
of passion, or, or desire, or man made justice, they they're runaway
trains, whereas Allah tells us, here, you you have attained
justice. This is the beauty of having an absolute. So if I want
to know if have I done right or wrong by somebody, I can know
that. It's not by how you feel if I did right and wrong by you.
Right? We have a book that tells us, if you have done this, you
paid your landlord rent you've done. That's it. You've done
justice to what about what did you want? I don't need to sugarcoat
it. I don't need to do anything. So at what point for these groups,
will they ever be satisfied, they'll never be satisfied,
especially an organization based upon our movement based upon
temptation, and desire. Right? It will never be satisfied. So it's
never gonna end. I'm sure one day at the White House will just take
their flag down and put the pride flag up.
US just paint it, paint and call it a day. Put it in the
constitution so we can be know now where we're going. Right? Yeah,
yeah. Rainbow with waiting. Put it there. Put it in, right. That's
the beauty of an absolute again, if you come to our country, hey,
we have a book here. There's a book, these are rules. That's
never going to change. Right? It will never change. This is stuff
you're not allowed to say you're not allowed to do. And public.
Behind closed doors. We can't control you. Right should yeah,
doesn't go behind closed doors.
The shootout in terms of the execution of the law by the
Sultan, he doesn't go into your homes, right? Of course there
should yeah. For every for us in our homes. But for the sole Dawn,
he doesn't go into your home.
Unless he believes that you're like plotting and planning, but
you want to do do whatever you want to do do it at home, but the
book on what you're not allowed to do in this country. He study in
two weeks, two hours, in two hours, I can listen to everything
and then give you the green card. Alright, you agree sign off right
there. Because if you break these rules, you're going to be in
trouble. Right? These rules will never change for 200 years for
2000 years for 5000 years. The rules. Those are the rules for us
today. You don't know where it's going. And the degree of the I'm
shocked by Owen Benjamin, you know, this comedian is extremely
openly. It's like we I don't understand that if a Muslim was
openly against it, because we're not really on the radar. Plus, we
have a religion, everything. Like what's driving him and Isn't he
like gonna lose his whole life. He must be living on a farm. He must
be living on a farm with his own cows and his own stream of water
and saying, To * with everybody knowing you, I don't care if I get
canceled anywhere, right? He must be.
He must be right. It's gotta be it's gotta be like that because
his I can't even read you what he said. We maybe we'll get to it and
the segment will have to be bleeped out everything will have
to be bleeped out.
Yeah. Luton was a great trip after Luton.
We then went
no, no Bolton sorry. Bolton Bolton first. That was Bolton after
Bolton. We got into the car again. And we went down and we spent the
next rest of the trip in a town right outside London called High
Wycombe.
Okay, this, this this, this little town has an area where we stayed
which is almost close. Okay.
And on the way to High Wycombe, we stopped by a man by the name of
Sheikh unsought. And his organization was one of the
sponsors of our trip. His organizations called Medina 313.
Okay.
One of the best organizations in terms of like, what they're doing
what they're trying to do and their attitude, right. So what
they do is they do a mecca.
After school, there's not a lot of Islamic schools there in England.
There are there's like masajid there's dato looms. But the
Islamic schools like the way we have them here, K through 12, they
don't really have that I must be expensive to do. So all the kids
go to these after school programs. So Shere Khan saw his organization
called Medina 313 He's very versatile. Okay, firstly, he comes
out with a stick. Beard turban. So, right, I'm like, That's the
look. Right? You know exactly what you're getting good. That's the
look when I get old, I'm not going to change out of those quotes.
Inshallah, right. That's how I want to be just when the kids see
him, they know what's what's, what the deal is, right? And
he has a gym, and he has like a building with classrooms. He has
heaps of Quran and there's a what do they call dojo? Dojo like what
you fight
everyone's doing boxing BJJ and they call it the better Fight
Club. Right the better fight club Yep. And and he ends up having
dozens upon dozens upon dozens of Shabaab coming and their interest
is the jujitsu, the bed club. There's a gym next door, right?
All like in like, one one area, a gym. And he also purchased or they
gave him a soccer team in the local club. Right?
And they have a soccer team and they were green and white. Right
and they're like he sponsored the team and they play there with a
clock with with prophetic o'clock and they have a soccer team right?
Yes, it full soccer team and I think like they have like better
313 All right, and then in Latin, it says Mohamed is our master
right? So it's a it's an official soccer team with like games every
Sunday and everything but his Institute owns the team All right,
so
they got jerseys you know soccer we don't have this in America but
soccer they change the jersey like every year.
Like totally changed Jersey every year for us but we don't they
don't really do that. They maybe have one alternate but he showed
me all the different jerseys that they have. Right? So I loved about
it that it was active it was
all kids from any key all sorts of kids come doesn't matter like
they're not all from the same family of men which right now like
all only Shafique kids are only 100 are only like
you know Minnesota oriented families go everyone goes everyone
goes they learn Quran they learned Sierra they learned FIP okay, they
learn o'clock and when you walk in the first thing you see is like a
presentation of prophetic things like the mud of the prophet, a
soil from Medina with the with the the ring symbol of the prophets. I
send them like a Shema picture. So the first thing you see when you
get there is almost like a commemoration or a
display of the Prophet Seisen. And then he has quotes everywhere,
from like different wise sayings and things like that. So it was
very impressive work. And that's the work you live and die to do
you hope to live doing that and die doing that.
And inshallah that shahada so after, after we went to that town,
then we went to High Wycombe.
And there we were hosted by the Karima Foundation, or the crema
Foundation is a group of young guys, right with a strong leader
and two young scholars that are with them. There may be a third
one who, who I may not have met Okay, no, no, there's a third
there was there were three Sorry, there were three. Right The first
one was Sheikh awesome. Oh, yeah. You know Awesome. How do you know
him?
Kind of affiliated with our organism, a company that
actually stable one came on the podcast the other day? Yeah.
No, no, no, no awesome.
Here let me get it for you.
See if there's a last name here
Papa Papa boom.
Awesome. That's it.
He's a scholar. He's a young scholar. Right. And he's the and
he's the act and he is the one who
might I don't know.
Maybe
Awesome. So he he was our hosts for the second part along with
wakad Wakata came to hold the down to and, and then there's a scholar
a Kalam. Expert I would say he's not going to call himself an
expert but in my eyes, he's an excellent expert does not mean
somebody that knows every single thing, but it's someone who can
sit with the experts and be part of the discussion. Right and his
name was chumps. Tommy's got I kept saying stumps it's a breeze
the whole time but it's chumps it's him use
some siberys was the friend of Rumi nice nap
the lawn. So he was
or I'ma holla Jimmy on all of them. So he was he was a scholar
that I spoke next to in these events, right? And awesome was
like the coordinate. He's the worker. He's one of these guys
who's a scholar visa worker. And they're trying to build a like,
Ellison but nondenominational. Like I just don't know. But they
don't want to, they want to do something a little bit different,
which is that they didn't want to necessarily put a line in the sand
on everything, so that it could absorb a lot of people. And I
spoke next to a Bwalya Sheikh Abu Alia, you know him,
the humble eyes, his website, essentially, the humble eyes where
he writes everything she will earlier, he gave an amazing talk.
Right? And he quoted one of the quotes he said, the most important
knowledge that you have is the knowledge of the present. Right.
And then the second most important knowledge you have is the
knowledge of
the, of how to keep maintain the knowledge of the present. He
quoted. I think you've been renewed on that. But he gave an
amazing talk on modernity. Since Timmies, give another talk. And
then I gave a talk on I'm waiting for that talk to come out
actually.
On YouTube, so we'll wait for them and if someone is here, from
there, from Kadima, just please put it up. So then that was the
first that was the first night with them. That was a Saturday
night or Sunday night talk. It was a Sunday night talk I think. And
then after that we had another after party.
You bro you come around with these the way we do things, man. You're
gonna gain weight. You're gonna gain weight. And there we had a
guest a surprise guest Hamza sorts I had is a second meeting with
him. The first meeting was a lunch we just had a lunch with Muhammad
hijab and his sources early other on the first
day in London, and then we went for with he hung out with us and
had another three hour two hour Hangout at the Kadima foundation
headquarters. So, this week the event was in a school, a regular
primary school. That school is 70 to 80% Muslim kids public school.
I mean, it's just it's something else. It's another world, but it's
like their cousins almost because they're like English speaking.
Right. So so that was a really that was a blast. We had a blast.
Okay, so the whole night we had a blast, then we left next day.
Okay, was
the next day was two things. The first thing was a podcast. The pot
we did a podcast with that now we're talking Sunday. It's now
Sunday. We did a podcast with the with dealing with sin, deliver her
sin. The blood brothers podcast heard of it. He so he runs five
pillars UK, where he's one of the I think he's one of the founders.
And he's also he has a blood brothers pocket. It's one of the
best podcasts out there. Because he's a podcaster. He's not
necessarily or he like he's an interviewer. He's not necessarily
putting something out himself. He likes to speak or put it out. And
it was a great exchange back and forth. Right. It was really good
exchange back and forth. Someone wanted asked me a question about
the Medicaid. He asked a couple medical questions if someone's
utterance of Talaq Talaq to luck
counts, and the answer is no, it does not count. You'd have to say
something or write something. In addition to that, even if someone
said, What do you want to do with your wife and you said to luck
when the Melaka school would not be considered to look? Okay. You'd
have to say something else alongside with it. Okay, so we go
to the studio, it's blood brothers, episode number 98. Can
you put it up? Just the link? Alright, episode number 98. It was
a really fun episode. Right? And it's also a fun episode because
you know that the host is essentially you know, his beliefs.
You essentially know he's like a Muslim who doesn't stand for
nonsense, right? He's not a progressive or liberal or anything
like that. So you're comfortable with right? So it was a good
podcast, then we went down now
It's a beautiful sunny day, but it's Sunday and we're starting it
a bit tired. We go to Milton Keynes. Milton Keynes is a mess
should we get in? And do you know the feeling of Sunday? When you're
tired, and it's a Sunday? Right?
It's like the whole the whole cities tired. Everyone's tired.
Everyone's lagging, we get there. And there's like a splattering of
people. And I'm thinking to myself, You know what, we're just
going to give everything to do right just you're going to do
somebody do it right. And just had to muster up the energy. And as
the night went on, right everything picked up, Mister
started to pick to pack up.
We after Austin, there was some lunches, then we got a gift from
Allah.
About Allah we shake
walks in. Right Jerry German based Zanza Burien Bala wishek.
And I said to myself, this, what happens when you when you give
everything it's due Allah to Allah gives you a reward, and he sparked
the rest of the evening. He was a spark, he was a disciple of Habib,
I'm gonna shoot her dad, and he's the translator of Quito, the
garden in German. You know, the famous book with Dr. Jana. And he
came in. And at first, um, given the talk, he comes in, I didn't
know if this is part of the program or what he sat down his
name Sheikh Mohammed sada. He sat down.
And then someone to bring him a chair. Then I thought to myself,
I'm on a stage right now almost like, oh, this doesn't look good
at all. Does not right. So he came onto the stage, it became a
program for both of us now. Then everything just picked up. Then
they finished with Selam
standing for them.
Then another after party, and we saw another young organization
called the lotus, the low tree Institute, or just the low tree, I
can't remember if Institute's part of the name or not. And that was
another hang up, right? This time with the chef and we did the
recipe. Right and every every program we did every program, I'm
pretty sure every program we did that could except in Birmingham,
maybe there wasn't time because but
after the the event with Chef Alia and the one that Hamza sources
came to, we did, right which shocked him using and then
jumps into the different one. Right.
We use mbsc thicker book, which can be icy there, man. We just we
did like half hour ones. And then with with Sheikh Mohammed Salah,
we did ROTC, but just That's it. That's it, but it was really
powerful. Like you could tell this is somebody who has been on this,
doing this for so long, that the hits are stronger. Right.
Kane? Maybe 70?
Sorry, not you're sick. No, no, no, you're sick. People. I've met
people who know your show. Yeah. Muhammad SAW, like, or the shape
that you know, that you visited on Canada. So that was the Milton
Keynes. That was the
Milton Keynes and then the load tree event. Now the next day, the
latter was last day. Monday was the last day of the tour. And what
did we do Monday morning? I can't remember. Oh, Monday morning, we
had lunch with Massoud Han.
Massoud Han gets the credit and has the phuddle and Allah chose
him for something great, which was that right when the internet was
coming about?
He tracked down the shoe and got articles snorkeler Shahadat Kimora
shamsizadeh Massoud Dakota, you used to be called Massoud I think
it was called the Masood Khan website early on, right and just
simple muscle tone website. Articles that's you click nor
color. You see his articles. Um, the hachimura sees articles right
fepto robertet Hodge on following a method see the article now? It's
just called Miss Oh, Dakota, UK. And no no with a U. M A sud?
Dakota UK. Yeah. And then
what I didn't expect Oh, look at the website now. Very nice
website. So that so that the website is I'm looking at the
website right now. And it has features these these articles that
are it seems like it's like a long form article, right? Like you
don't go to this to surf around and find a nice quote. You're
going to read Alright, go up again real quick. See the tabs.
Everything about the profit. That's the first tab check NorCal
there's a second tab checkup document on the second tab. Then
there's FIP up here to so of biographies history, things
related asunder 11 featured
videos. Okay, scan down a bit different articles keep going. So
we went to we he hosted us for lunch. And then we ended up
very important website this one lot of important things. And then
after that he took us to the local Masjid. It was really quaint, I
would say, there's a little street and the place is called the city
is called Ellsbury, I think
it was a little street that led to an open grass on one side and the
masjid on the other side. And it used to be a masjid with
step with a courtyard with a fountain then steps then you go
into the mess just like the Ottoman mosques. And I think in
India, they do the same thing courtyard with a fountain in it,
then you go up some steps, then you entered the Masjid. But
because of space and need, they flattened all that and covered the
courtyard. Right but you saw that but it really handled you could
tell it was one of the old masajid that has that type of flair to it.
Right that baraka to it. That flavor, I should say. And we
prayed to her and asked her there.
And then we went down to the last event, which was with Sheikh
awesome Yusuf and chumps, it's nice to me is shook awesome.
Yusuf, also known as
thought of it, Habib, and he gave a very,
I was supposed to talk about it, he's going to talk about it.
He gives a talk first.
And I'm like, I hope there's like some stuff going on between us.
Because his talk was powerful. He's a very, he's a very powerful
talk. And he talks about the, like, the coronation of a king
gives you a glimpse of what it's going to be like when the
messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the only one allowed to
prostrate and speak to Allah on the day of judgment, and pray for
mercy. Like he brought that
it's an image, you'll never forget it from then on, because he
described the coronation of a king, what is the coronation of a
king look like in British history? Like in British in the British way
of doing things? What is the coronation of the King look like?
There are people singing, there are high priests doing stuff,
right? It's a it's a big spectacle, right? It's a big
event. And it's filled with tradition, and it's filled with
like,
it gives you a sense of grandeur. And he basically said, you think
that on the Day of Judgment, when the messenger of allah sallallahu
alayhi salam prostrates, and ALLAH inspires in him words of praise.
And he asked Allah for His mercy.
That basically after if this prayer is after this prayer, then
the doors of mercy open up and people enter paradise eternally,
infinitely forever. Right? Do you think that a coronation will be
more grand than that moment? of the prophets of Allah who said no,
and the Prophet will be essentially, at that moment, the
savior of all budget of all people, because the the Chacao
will not occur without him. So Allahu newsone And once he
prostrates and he is of course the, the manifestation of the
Greatest Divine Mercy as was have you called them in Medina last
time was in Medina Habib called the made the point he said the,
the Mercy of Allah Tala, all that manifestation, divine attributes
do not just fall down to the sky, they come through something
created. Right? That's where the prophesy sends it. I'm the Mercy
given to you as a gift and the raw material, right, I'm the Mercy
given to you as a gift. So he is the prophesy. Some is a
manifestation of that, because some awkward some minds may think,
Oh, you think that the prophet has more mercy than Allah knows the
prophet is the Mercy of Allah manifested in the form of
creation. So the prophets I send them makes this frustration and it
is a frustration that all will witness and then the prophet will
speak words of praise that no one has ever spoken before. And that
will be accepted. And the great fear of the punishment and the
hisab will transform into mercy and people will be get forgiven
getting forgiveness to get forgiveness and forgiveness and
then the prophet will be interested in and then the
believers will be allowed to intercede for whatever number that
Allah lots for them. He gave that talk right
then
I didn't you can't use such a powerful sentiment there has to be
a break. Right. So well as a praying that they do some other
considers. I'm gonna go to the bathroom, right? Because I don't
even want to talk after that because I wanted that sentiment or
that image that he
But to settle, right? There shouldn't have been any talk like
immediately after that. So then hamdulillah they did, because he
does again for another 15 minutes. And then so then afterwards then I
gave that final talk. And that was a Monday night. And then Tuesday
are full flights were delayed once. So we took the next flight.
And then when we came back, we circled over Newark couple times
because of the smoke.
So people may have heard the news that there are forest fires in
Canada, and the air is smoke was coming down. So the first wave of
forest fires have brought a yellow tint over all of the tri state
area. Pictures of New York were insane. Okay, it was like Mars,
I'm telling you everything was like yellow. And then that smoke
is gone. We're getting another batch tomorrow. Yeah, we're going
to another
witness was really good. No, because they're coming in waves
right? So that's what it is outside yesterday was something
else I'm telling you yesterday was something else.
We have to whenever something weird stuff happens like this. You
just have to remember Allah subhana wa Tada because there are
signs from Allah about his of his power. Like you can't control the
sky. You can't control the winds you can't control these fires
human beings should know their weakness. And I gave the talk at
at High Wycombe Ames final gathering was on the importance of
muchness in remembrance of Allah Tala. Like quantity, and the many
things it's not the quantity, it's the quality, right? But this is
the quantity. Okay?
One of the verses that I didn't mention was very simple. With guru
la halala. Come to with kulula cathedra narla Come to remember
Allah much so that you may have success. That means if you're
having weakness in your business, do the weakness you're not
successful in your any endeavor. Remember Allah Now what's going to
happen is the success is going to come down. No, by rote by that
remembrance, you put yourself in a position to receive the advice,
you put yourself in a position to receive. Okay, you soften your
heart, and you open it to be inspired to receive the ASVAB the
causes that will help you that's how we understand that the value
of how because someone says
Why would you do this when you need to go out and change your
situation but sometimes you cannot change the situation in your
current state. You need to elevate your conscience consciousness. You
need to purify your heart so you can receive inspiration. The
inspiration of Allah is always coming but but your heart may be
closed. That's why we with with kulula Catherine Lala come to
remember Allah much so that you might have success. Anyone who has
like stalling in a bad or stalling and things
stalling in their business stalling in their work, do much
remembrance of Allah so that you may have success. Okay, so
that is that was a summary. And next day we left we took the
flight back, we circled around Newark, we came down. All three of
us were just cooked, spent all Wednesday, very slow day on
Wednesday. And then the whole news was basically all the
the sky yesterday was insane. And it cleared this this afternoon,
they cleared but we're gonna get another wave of that smoke,
according to the forecasters on Wednesday
we came in and I started getting texts, and I'll feel who was with
me, I'm not gonna say who was the third wheel that that just
basically was the source of the comedy comic relief of the whole
trip. Slash chaos. I'm not gonna say who it is. But I'll say it was
with me. Right? And he said, Hey, look, I'm being told don't breathe
heavy when you get in. And there's smoke. Right?
And then about 10 minutes later, we could smell the smoke in the
plane. Yeah, because the I guess like you can't avoid it. It was
seeping through right so we actually smelled the smoke in the
in the plane. All right. So we smelled the smoke in the plane and
we
we got down we had to circle a couple times. Then it was it came
down. I happen to be like on my balcony. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I
saw your plane. I was like I'm pretty sure yeah.
Just kept going around for about, you know, maybe two three times
before we finally landed.
So it was it was me it was it was
an affise was with us right now in the fees is like the biotech genes
now I left out one thing. I forgot one tech and one thing. We went to
Luton. When we went to Jamia to Medina and saw a sheikh there
named
movie in Russia and that is shaking rods roommate from Turkey.
I loved it. I loved this it was a mother a sister founded by it yes
she took it as poverty he has 18 in England all fully funded you
study for free right full time for you I don't study study for free.
Right you go there study for free in Luton and there's 18 others
there's one of 18 in the country. Now.
Next time you go to England, do you ever go Oh, you got to Canada.
Okay, I'm gonna have to Costa England's so I'll I'll give him
shouldn't have Masada architekten Oh, we didn't went across about
six idol. Kemeny was there in Birmingham literally the next
semester down the road. But we didn't there was no time for me to
go. They actually had invited me to go to an event that he was at,
but their schedules didn't allow. I would have one.
So that was the trip. That was the news. I come back.
Everything should be good and fine. And what do I find?
A ticket in the mail?
Are you guys actually serious? Okay.
Come
to my house with my name my driver's license information.
Okay, my birthday my phone number and
who? Okay, identity identify the apartment department slash agency
Animal Control Office. Oh.
Okay.
By certification on oath says to the best of their knowledge that
the named defendant, okay. in New Brunswick has committed the
following offense colon, description of offense, male goat
that's a description of the offense.
And
I'm thinking to myself, Okay.
I'm thinking about Alright, what's the quiz is gonna cost me like
annoying 56 bucks. 64 bucks. I look, I can't find any number. So
I start read you know, these tickets, you know exactly where to
look. Right? You they check on a box has a number and a letter next
to it, you go to the back of the ticket. You look at the letter,
and you see how much it costs. There's no letter, I look down
at the what is my penalty, you are hereby summoned to appear before
this court to answer the complaint. If you fail to appear
on the day and time as a financial sanction may be imposed a warrant
may be issued for your arrest or both. Good. And then it has an X
on the box. It says court appearance required.
court appearance required. So they're they're gonna send me I
guess a letter. I guess we operate in the world of letters that have
my number to send me a text message. But I guess we're
operating in the world of letters in the mail. And we're gonna
eventually probably hopefully, it'll be a virtual
court, right? Imagine I walk into court, and they call my name out.
Could you plug this in? Make sure it's plugged in this one here.
Always plugged in. It's good. I walk in and they and they're
reading the offenses, right? There's one guy speeding one guy
is like, you know, driving over the limit. What are you here for
owning a goat? How is that gonna go down? What is the judge going
to ask me? Why did you own a goat? I said, I want to say, Your Honor,
I'm on Twitter. I needed a goat to get close to nature, right? And
away from the toxic world. And then, but they see it says what
the I put the goat in the masjid the house that the masjid has,
because we have a lot of lint. Okay. The neighbor complaints.
They show up Monday morning. They bring me over? And they say yeah,
I know. You're just maybe having to having a pet or whatever. But
you can't do it in North Brunswick said okay, fine.
I took it in North Brunswick. I put it in it's in New Brunswick,
right? Because I can't just call the farmer he's a doctor. The
farmer is a doctor, the farm owner is a doctor, right? If you don't
have time, all right. And I'd have classes and at night, and he works
in the day. So Monday is the worst day for the staff. And if it was
weakened, fine, we could do with it. So I just take it to here,
take it here. So I said I complied with their wishes. I took it out
of the township. I put it in another township where hopefully
nobody complaints. So first day goes by second day goes by then
what happened was there was like a light pole being fixed or
something and a cop had to stop traffic or monitor the
construction or whatever. And he looks and sees a goat.
And he reports No, no one else knowing none of the Neighbors
reported. So it told me let me get this straight. You can have a pit
bull, but you can have a goat.
Explain that in logic to me.
What is our
Our topic today beyond this, our topic today is a
amazing job by an organization called the coalition of virtue.
That is what we're going to highlight today.
Okay, montgomery county
I'm trying to find the exact article Muslim parents trans.
Okay.
Find the article. Oh, here we go. Okay. Everybody is covering the
work of a brother named.
I, the representative of the organization whom I know is Kadeem
Muneeb. Someone I know from the past. He's the rep of this
organization, if not the founder. Okay. I don't want to say
something wrong. That belittles the other people involved in this
organization. There's no doubt a lot of people are involved, but
he's the one I know.
And I believe he's the founder. The coalition of virtue is an
organization which for which you can open a chapter
you can open the chapter for this, it's gonna be nationwide. Let me
tell you exactly what their statement is.
Okay. The coalition of virtue seeks to protect Muslim children
and public schools, from gender ideology.
And what they wanted to do
is get an opt out.
And Kadima nib and the Muslim organization, you look at this
regular Muslims, okay? Have went into,
okay.
Protest the Maryland School System Policy and there were hearings and
everything which I'm going to read you
had hearings and everything so that an opt out can be restored.
They're not even telling them don't teach it in the schools.
Right? They're just saying, let us out. Everyone's covering this.
Okay, everyone's covering this event. I'm read. I'm gonna read it
to you from a news agency I've never read from before. It's
called the Catholic News Agency.
Okay. The Catholic News Agency. They, Laura Ingram had him on Fox
and she said us Catholics have been waiting
for you Muslims to step up. Okay. That's what she said, us Catholics
have been waiting for you Muslims to step up. Right? Which is news
to me. But that that's what she said, which I am telling you just
by if we just keep doing this. Just keep showing up, keep showing
you never know what's going to happen. You just never know how
the ball is going to or listen to what she says curricula in our
schools are now akin to white supremacists. Joining me now is
one of those parents. Okay. Why is she saying that? Because one of
the administrators of the county said that the Muslims are against
this trans education for their kids. There's Gender Education for
this. You are like most white supremacist, you're with the white
supremacist. Like okay, you're with the Satanist.
Okay, cut him when he was in coalition of virtue in organizing
a rally over this issue. Kareem, you and I were talking before the
show. And as Catholics and other Christians, other people of faith
have been waiting for the Muslims to step up on this issue in so
many others. And you really are doing it in your see.
We stepped up he stepped up. A whole group of people stepped up.
He says here a girl Muslim parents joined parental and religious
freedom rights advocates Tuesday to protest a Maryland school
systems new policy that removes the parents authority to opt their
children out of coursework that promotes homosexuality and
transgenderism.
Okay, the June 6 protests at the montgomery county public school
district's headquarters was led by a group called Family rights for
religious freedom about 50 parents and activist carried signs that
read family rights and restore the OPT up okay. So it was it was
launched by another group I guess the coalition of virtue which is
cuttings organization was at the forefront of it. Okay.
Restore the opt out said signs family rights said another signs
religious freedom said another sign protect our children. Okay.
Now, here's the funny thing that Elon Musk noted.
They were saying protect your children. So the the Trans World
they organized a counter protest. Also chanting protect our
children. Elon Musk tweets, they're chanting protect our
children. They're not your children.
All right, they want to protect children that aren't even theirs.
And
they can't have children because of their way of life. So they want
everyone else's
gets. That's that's how I look at it, frankly. Alright.
That's definitely one of the end if not that they want to make sure
to indoctrinate the next generation. And they said it. I
can't remember who it was it was Matt Walsh.
He said he brought a clip. And he said and a had a basically
homosexual guy, youth singing a song in a very feminine way. And
he said, The only thing you write about is that we're coming for
your kids. Right? We're gonna come for your kids, he said in a song.
Maryland law requires that school districts allow parents to opt out
of coursework that deals with family life and human sexuality.
However, the school district decided in March that it does not
consider reading materials that discuss subjects related to
homosexuality, transgender and other aspects of gender ologies be
part of family life, and human sexuality instruction. So we're
gonna play word games, and remove sexuality from family life and
human sexuality instruction. For this reason, beginning on May 1,
the school district no longer notifies parents, that such
material and coursework is going to happen and will not allow you
to opt out. Okay, so don't go to school then that day. If that's
the case, we don't want to be put aside as basically irrelevant says
well as a cush ad. I guess his parents used to make cushty Who
leaves family rights and religion. That's what it says. Oh, and of
course at with a cough not a calf. It has a calf. It's spelled with a
K. L. cush ad. So I'm like cushy, but no, it's push ad should be
with a Q, technically,
of course, the great amount of course, AD, right.
And he said, Of course at the school district has approved
several books that discuss subjects related to homosexuality
and transgenderism. For students as young as three and four years
old. Something is wrong with you. You need correction. This includes
a book called pride puppy. So you got that what every kid loves is a
puppy. Okay? And you're making it now a symbol of homosexuality and
* *.
That's what it is. That's what it is man, which seeks to teach
children the alphabet through story, a story about a homosexual
pride parade, and introduces them to So wait a second, where was the
vaginal?
Where was the vaginal * support? All these years? Why are we now
just supporting that animal *? Because that's the summary of it.
Right? Two guys love each other. What's the difference? one, group
two and no * one group is not right. Friends love each other to
death in war. Don't you think those guys love each other? They
would die for each other. What's the difference in them? And
homosexual couple ain't no *. Right? You don't touch me for
pleasure. You can love someone to death and in war, they die for
each other. The best statement I said about war is how do you say?
So I have a new industry here. Fictional frontiers. How?
Sahiba one so I have Jonas
and Eunice and Sohaib unis that confusing.
Okay, so
he said you don't fight for the nation, which happened a moment.
Good. Congratulations. Last Day School last day of finals. Well
done. Okay. Sophomore year is over for units.
So he said that you're not you're not fighting? We don't how do you?
How do you fight? How do you do all the what you did? And dying
and almost dying and all that stuff for a war? You don't
understand? He said, Oh, no, we don't understand. We have no clue
where we're going. But the only way to motivate yourself to do
this is to fight you're fighting for the guy next to you. You're
fighting for the soldier next to you. You're fighting to save him.
He's fighting to save you. And that was a brilliant quote, right
from a soldier. So like, that's how we we we motivate ourselves to
do everything. Because we're all here stuck in this war. We didn't
choose it. But they're now trying to kill my companion. Right? So
I'm going to try to save him. So that's love. So guys can love each
other all they want. The difference? Is this is not it's
not about love. Don't say about love. Right? The difference is we
don't touch each other for pleasure.
Okay, and why do we do that? Because in Islam, we don't we
don't believe we own our bodies. If you own your body, where do you
make it? Where do you buy it? Everything you own? You either
made it or you bought it. Okay?
If anyone's gonna own anyone, by standard, this standard review
your parents on you, right? Even though they didn't make it they
didn't make you right there. I hate when parents say or I should
say sarcastically I love when parents said, uh, you know, we
made this really show me the work.
You fulfilled your pleasures. That's all you did. Right? And of
course she had to carry the baby but she didn't do anything. So we
don't own our bodies. That's the chief and ultimate foundation of
the entire thing. We do not own our bodies in this
Islam, Allah to Allah, the Creator owns our body, he made it. Right.
He's the one who makes creates directly or creates through
something else. Good processes that are outside of any rational
control. There's no rational control. There's nothing rational
beings. All right? So it is a creation of Allah subhana wa Tada.
He owns our body, he has a right to tell us what to do. That's the
summary of the foundational difference. That's why they'll
never be these things can never come together. So for example, a Q
is D is for drag Q is for Queen, L is for leather. Z is for zipper.
What is P for you people? Okay.
Okay, now listen to this. Who is the who read them? Marcia Johnson,
a trans drag queen, gay rights activist and prostitute.
You're bringing this person into the school to teach kids okay, and
now here is?
Yeah,
here. Unbelievable. Here. Here is yesterday, someone who's
admittedly been doing things. So here's some of the
so here's some.
Here's some of the footage. I can't I don't know if you can
really see it, but it's a march here. That
is that's that's where the how the marches going. And that's how the
rally is going. Right? Getting people amped up. Okay. And it's a
big rally. Now. The the the other side now came? Let me let me go
back with their flags. Okay.
Flying their flags, and basically being the trans opposite, you
know, the opposite, they always have to have a countermarch.
Right. So they're having a countermarch here, and saying
stuff like, don't hate and wave the flag and dancing and being
naked and all sorts of bedlam. Okay.
Don't hate. Okay.
All right. So everyone's following a covering this, it's got a lot of
coverage, which means it's did its job. I wonder about what about the
actual
the result? Is it going to be overturned or not? We got to wait.
I don't know if it I don't know if the results even came out yet. And
of course, he told Catholic News Agency that he had opted his
daughter out of this type of schoolwork in the past. But the
current policy will no longer allow him to do that his daughters
are in second grade, or his daughter is in second grade. typo
here for Catholic News. We were always afforded the right to opt
out. And of course, it emphasizes that the rally was not anti LGBT,
and that it did not protest the school district for introducing
these books. Yeah, like, we're like rungs down. And this is
making news like rungs you're not even saying don't teach it.
You're saying let us go home. Right? But I mean, do you even
need permission? Alright, I'm not doing it fail me on the test. You
have to have a test for this stuff, too. Alright, coloring.
What are we going to color draw draw? Draw drag queen draw Z for
zipper L for leather. Your coloring this stuff now?
He said their only request is allowed to opt out. It's a state
of merit. Hmm.
Yeah, leather, like what's going on there?
We're not anti LGBT, we are pro family says crush it. Okay, that's
wrong. But except second parts acceptable? Of course, you have to
be against something Allah forbid, right? Like we have actually
become that. I'm not saying anything about it. But I'm just
saying in general, like, this protest could never happen on the
existence of something that concludes that boat has passed a
long time ago.
But, you know, as Maureen would say, the Overton window has moved,
so that now you're an activist to just want to opt out, which I'm in
full support of right. But that's, that's where we're at right now.
Yeah, I just, that's exactly it. It's not I'm not telling you not
to do something. I think I don't want to do it. I'm not saying I
don't want to do it. Don't let my kids do it. I don't want my kids
to do it. But that's where we're at right now. Family and religious
freedom began primarily with Muslim parents. Okay, so it is a
fully
Islamic group are are started by Muslims, but said a lot of
Christian groups reached out and they are growing their coalition
membership. Okay. Lindsey Smith, moms for liberty, which also took
part in the event, told the CNA the Catholic News Association,
that her or only you guys know what CNA is, right. Only the
Catholic News Agency knows what this acronym means.
Got it?
Yeah, yeah, see, I have to I have to refer to the top of the website
to know what it is that our organization teamed up with other
parents to rally with parents who are standing up for this and
standing against it. And also to monitor English literature classes
that are filled with sexual orientation curriculum. Okay. So
so far, the Board of Education has stated multiple times, they are
standing firm in their decision to promote diversity, equity and
inclusion, okay, and not honor their own religious policy giving
you the rights to parents to opt out. They're not going to do that.
It's not inclusive of us. What do you mean? Like their diversity and
inclusion? Diversity and Inclusion is one way.
I like what he said. He's like, Listen, if this is all about
everyone being included in pull Ramadan out of the whole school,
right, don't teach Ramadan. Do you heard about the other teacher? Let
me get you that quote before we can finish that. Do you have it?
Who has? Let me get you?
Let me get this.
Let me let me get you this. We were laughing We were almost like,
we replayed this. She's basically this woman is gone ballistic. And
she's basically saying, look, the Muslim kids, they're, they're
walking out. They're walking out of school. They're leaving school
for pride period when the period in which they're going to do
pride. The Muslim kids are walking out. And she's in her worldview.
Right? It's just
respect, right? And her worldview, she says that, listen,
the gay students, they didn't walk out when we did Ramadan. Right.
That was that they didn't walk out when they've when we did Ramadan.
Right. So it goes both ways. Now listen to this, listen to this,
because it's it's pretty comical if you asked me
out to lunch? I'll tell you, you were up to lunch, if you think a
success expert, not acceptable to not show up because you think that
there's some pride activities going on at school? Right? Oh,
that's fine.
Because I'm going to show my opinion by hanging out at the
mall. But meanwhile, all those kids who are you know, involved
in, say the keys to utilize or whatever I don't even know if we
have any more in our school. They're here, when we did Ramadan
for Lion time. And they're showing respect to the class, for your
religion, right for your beliefs.
And ghosts, two ways. If you want to be respected for who you are,
if you don't want to separate prejudice for your religion, your
color, scan your whatever, then you better get back to people who
are different from you. That's how it works. It's an exchange,
and everything like that in all countries, as I told you, and you
gotta literally if you they think your day, they will execute youth.
If you believe that kind of thing, then you don't belong here.
Because that is not what Canada believes. We believe in freedom.
We believe that people can marry whomever they want. That is in the
law. And if you don't think that should be the law, you can't be
Canadian. You don't belong here and I need it. I really need it.
And it's not a joke, man Stewart
I gotta hear that one again. I gotta hear that one again, is not
a joke mentor. But in a quote
by her logic, not now the school the school was embarrassed by the
statement, but hold on a second, by the logic of Trudeau. This is
what you're she's following the logic of the law. If you don't
like this, get that out of here. That's what she's following.
Right? That's what it's going to lead to. But let's let's listen to
this mentors laughing here. And I need it. I really mean it. And
it's not a joke, man sort.
You Why you gotta give it I don't want
to deal
if that's the deal, if that's the deal, I don't want to keep it
take Ramadan out of the schools for all I care, right.
Listen, all the Muslims come together. So listen, take Ramadan
out of schools. Okay, and let us opt out. Do your thing. Right. We
don't want anyone respecting us if we have to then if it's a quid pro
quo, because that's we don't believe in that. Right? Because
this is something that's aligned. That's a great line for the Muslim
that are always on one side of the political spectrum. Yeah. Showing
the guys on the left, they're saying the same thing. Yeah, it's
all go home all go home. At the end of the day, how could he do
home in Korea to come to Tahoe? Allah says that they will that
they said at the time of Lutz, get them out of our countries, right?
And they're saying it. We're here. Why are we here? Who the heck
knows Allah has a wisdom, right? Why he puts 100 million Muslims in
Western countries. Now you're stuck with us, because you can't
get 100 million Muslims. I don't care I wouldn't have ever. Like if
I have the beliefs that I have now. And I lived in a Muslim
country I've never come to a country that has antithetical was
to my beliefs. But we're stuck with it. Right? It happened. Who
knows how it happened? Because in the past, a lot of people weren't
thinking about these things. And they're just Christian people. And
we have history with Christians. And the Quran has things to say
about them that they have kindness, right. And there are
even in our religion recognizes their right to worship as they
worship. So that on that basis, by the way, this lady, whoever you
are, your grandma would not be allowed in Canada, she does not
tolerate this stuff. Okay. Your great grandfather will be the
biggest anti all this stuff. Okay. Are we kidding? You're right.
All your grandparents, the founders of Canada.
The founders of Canada would not be able to live in Canada right
now. All of the the founder of the NHL Stanley Cup himself, Mr.
Stanley, Lord Stanley, himself wouldn't be out of Canada. Okay.
Based upon if that's the case that you if you don't stand up for, for
homosexual and you respect it and love it and honor it, okay, then
you can't live in Canada. That's what you say, Lord Stanley
himself, Walter Gretzky himself would be gunned the dead. Right. I
guarantee you that whole generation of grandparents. Okay.
Their kids then grew up like that then became politically correct.
Real quick. Michael Jordan was the biggest.
You know, he's famous for the slurs that he had on people on
guys who were soft, right? So that second generation, they grew up
like that, then quickly in their 40s, they got politically correct
real quick, right. And now it's, if you're not this, you're not
Canadian.
Now you're they got smoke all over the place now for June.
Also, just
the inclusive nature of all of this is problematic,
philosophically across the board, because where do you draw the line
on what you include? Or don't you don't include? Because I think
Spiker, who's Yeah, what do you say? Tony brought up? Very
interesting enough, he said that, if you are a fan of Star Wars, for
example, yeah. So not that I ascribe to this, but they have
made the fourth they call it may the fourth be with you? Fair
enough. Okay. So if people want to take a day off, like, you really
need to be a Star Wars fan to have thought up of that, but but fine.
Okay, so they say if you are a Star Wars fan, and you want to,
you know, characters in Star Wars, or you want to take that day off?
Oh, come next.
Where do you draw the line? Because obviously there has, or
you can even further back just say, for example, the first
nation, the Native Americans, all of them would be homophobic to be
out of Canada, they would not have existed if they allowed that there
people were scrapping for berries and scrapping. Right? They would
have died out their system though. ideology, their beliefs.
The challenge is, how do you pick and choose what is going to be
given that platform or they are the opportunity to have
expression? So the solution is to have no expression at all? No
expression. Now, that's the only logical extreme because at some
point, everything's going to clash. Because there's not
everyone's individual, you cannot have the stage. Exactly right now,
it's the minority if you're a minority, okay, except us, except
the Muslim position, right. And it's a minority. And when I said
like hunting for bears, I meant to say that, like, they struggled to
survive every generation, these the these, the old world living
like that, if they were to not procreate, they would have
just one existed. So the thing is that
the thing is that if you support the Muslims as a minority, and you
support, let's say, the woke the trans or the LGBT, as a minority,
when they grow up, because you supported them, they will grow to
not be afraid, because you keep supporting them, right? They won't
be afraid that one day, they're both going to talk to each other.
Right? And they're going to heads that's why liberalism, it's not
coherent. You can't just support a group because they're having
they're a minority. That's why I'd be much more comfortable. Just
tell us the law of the land and the philosophy of the land once
and for all. Don't say you're equal.
already for everyone, but then in action, it's not at all right.
Don't say there are no blasphemy laws. But then everyone is afraid
to talk. It's a lie. Just be straight up about it. And then we
can make a decision allow us to provide for us. But that's not
even that's, that's what I'm saying. What I actually believe
will happen is different. What I believe will happen is that
Muslims will be Muslims, and people will see it.
And they will realize, wow, they actually you they couldn't be
penetrated. No pun intended.
Disgusting, right?
Who knows, man, probably
when they get to three, four syllables. But
yeah, but that's what I believe will happen. I believe that will
happen, because a lot of people on the inside are just closing their
mouth.
Right, because it's force. We've seen it happen before, whenever
any group dominates in such a
a stifling manner. There are millions of people who will toe
the line. It's just not worth fighting for. Right. But the
Muslims it is worth fighting for. And they will take inspiration
from the Muslims. And I truly believe Muslims will say Islam was
spread in the hearts of people here. And once it spreads in the
hearts, it spreads in the lens, because the people run the
institutions, right? Institutions are run by human beings. Once a
lot of human beings, the Inuit enters their heart
and the man enters the heart.
That's what it means to be what's American in the earth to be
established in the earth means you have you are in the hearts of
enough people in that country. They will preserve you them or
they'll preserve it. So that's what I that's what I believe will
happen. But like our external outwardly, I'm saying
there are blasphemy laws that are unwritten. Can you just write
them? Right? There is no that you say you're a secular country, but
you're not a secular country, you have a religion woke, and LGBT is
a religion. It's a belief, right? You believe in certain certain
principles, you believe that the human being owns himself, you
believe that nothing is wrong, unless if you don't bother anyone
else, and you are promoting this. So it is a belief these are not
just a rights, their rights, underwritten by beliefs. just
state this is the belief of this country. Okay, then we can make a
decision.
Whereas montgomery county, it's within the greater Washington DC
metropolitan area. 16,000 students are in the schools.
Okay.
Religion is not just private worship, let's let's let's read,
there's some legal stuff that's interesting here. Freedom of
Religion is a fundamental right, that protects the conscience of
all people. Okay. Religion is not just private worship, it involves
public expression on social and moral issues. That's another
belief, right? The belief that religion is just private for
yourself? Well, that's not our religion, right? The issue of
gender and sexuality are influenced by our faith. We should
not be caricatures as intolerant and our faith to be subversive,
because it doesn't align with your beliefs.
That's true, but the Muslim isn't tolerant of certain things. To a
degree. Yeah. Yeah. To what we have no other option, right? If we
had strength, we would have to be subversive. When you have
weakness. If you have strength to just dominate, right? That's why
there's two types of war if you're strong, you just dominate right?
You announce it, I'm coming. Clear out so I don't kill innocent
people. That's what they do in war. I'm come. But if you're weak,
you have to fight a different way. Do you think that we're not going
to fight back? Did they think that you're just gonna push and we're
just gonna, like, keel over and die? No, people are gonna fight
back the nature of people, they're gonna fight back. They're gonna
fight back in ways you can't see and know.
So, but what it is, is is like,
Hold on, why does what does he mean by intolerance? Doesn't mean
like physically attacking somebody? Yeah, we don't do that.
Because we have rules in our religion, right rules of
engagement. But does it mean that I have to love something? Like, do
I have to tolerate it in my heart in my mood? Like, what if so, this
thing is gone too far? It's like, the law is made to tell our bodies
what to do. You can now start telling my mind and my heart what
to do. You're preaching now. Alright, that's a religion, call
it a religion, and any of it. Okay.
Beck Beckett law is a legal nonprofit that defends religious
liberty.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Muslims, Catholics, Orthodox
Christian parents. The law already provides the right for both
parents to opt out. There you go. Said Senior Counsel for Beckett
law. Baxter said that this said the state law applies generally to
all instruction on family and human sexuality. All we're asking
is to restore our opt out rights. Okay.
This is an issue that crosses political lines and it
crosses religious lines. Let me read you something that Abdul
Hakim Murad wrote recently made an interesting point at one point
about
fundamentals and foundations because again, I think, again,
maybe because I have a legal background and looking at things
from the foundational perspective, but when you are looking at REITs,
in general, yeah, like you said, this notion of the dichotomy
between tolerance and celebration, so to speak.
What is and what is not? So for me, what is what is the formula
for that? Because just to go back to the formula for what, that
something should be included or excluded or celebrate, or what
have you, because
we are a diverse culture? Yeah, we have many different traditions,
beliefs, shades, what have you. But why is one elevated another
and another is not? I go back to the Native Americans First Nation?
Yeah, the First Nation? Because they don't have a voice because
they don't have the number. Why is it if technically if you just say
to African American culture, or black culture, or Hispanic
culture,
and you could actually probably an even better example would be the
Hindu faith? Now, there were billion Hindus in the world. Yeah.
Now, if you asked a Hindu,
okay. And say, Okay, well, what do you think should happen? They
would say, Listen, we should have an entire month as well. Because
if you just go by the numbers, that's true, then we should be we
should have, but everyone's gonna get a month. Yeah. So I get your
your question. And Wayne brought up the same things like this thing
is too coordinated. The whole thing is so coordinated. It's like
absurd. It's so coordinated. And
it's planned, and it's in your face to such a degree that is
abnormal in human life. Right. It's abnormal in human life is not
even though you St Patrick's is like one day, right?
And they got a whole country of them. Right.
But it's, they've been abused a lot about things that do do
African works have they get Martin Luther King Day?
After all that they got a day. Why don't they get
one? Oh, Black Black History Month? It's, it's not a it's not a
day of is Black History Month. But it's not necessarily like a
celebration. This is it's not a celebrate? Do you see them putting
up different flags? Is there a black flag?
What's the Black History Month flag?
Yet we're gonna
end time prophecies is a black flag. But for example, it's black
history. It's informative, right? It's not parades and celebrations
and everyone changed flags and change your profile and
everything. Like if anyone's going to deserve something? It's
right. It's the people who suffered the most. In any event.
Yeah. Us
to law.
Let's limit what's happening.
Good yet.
I think this is I think, where we have to take accountability as
well. Yeah. When I was growing up, and I'm not saying that we don't
want our, our faith to be celebrated, but I never felt that
I was missing out because there was not a day off for eat. I just
said go to school,
go to school.
Go understand. It was like this. Okay, he's got his tradition. Most
of them should not be like this. Ask him for days. And I think that
we've set a very dangerous precedent because once you express
a need, I thank you. Did I not say this? In that in that little clip
that I said, and I think 2014 And then in 2015, or 2016, or
something, it was taken by like two years later was taken by one
path, right.
And they made a clip out of it. I got so much hate for that clip.
But I got so much hate from liberals and from for that clip,
but if I don't get hate from them,
I must not be on the right religion then. Right? As Abdul
Hakim Murad says here, right? If the modern world with all of its
strapping materialism and licentiousness accepts us, we're
doing something wrong.
But that's exactly I said, when you ask a favor from somebody, be
very careful and don't be so happy about it because you're going to
owe them then. Okay. You're going to owe them
eight answers. One must pay the piper. Thank you. Where did you
get that statement from? If you dance you got to pay the piper.
Right? That's how it is good. If you
that's how it is. And that's why you want a tree or they put like I
don't know this green lights for Ramadan. Okay, good. So the
governor calls the mayor calls you up, come for the green lights on
Ramadan. Let's celebrate everyone comes Oh, wonderful.
Two weeks later, the government calls you again. The mayor calls
you again. Come you enjoyed the green lights. Okay, comfort. We're
putting up the pride flag flag. You have operated by his whistle
enjoyed benefits of his also now pay the price of his also also Liz
method. Alright, his method is if you exist if your minority will
celebrate you put your flag up, okay? That's how it is. So you
Muslims, you got your lights up and Ramadan
we lit the the town hall green,
you happy you're happy that you asked for it, you got it, we gave
it to you by our rules. Now also by our rules, we're putting up the
trans flag, we're putting up a drag queen, we're putting up
whatever. So we were these are human interactions now, right?
Because the mayor is nice to you. He knows your name. We're friends
now. Right now he calls you up again. His assistant calls you up
again. Hey, what's happening?
Now we're putting up the transplant. So why don't you come
and represent just as you were pleased to get favors from us? Now
give the favors.
We know that also now you have no excuse to get involved with this.
Okay.
And that's what I said in that clip. years ago, before anyone was
talking about this stuff. There's a reason why I don't get invited
to Esna econo right, all these other organizations is because of
that, that one clip, right? And the moment and the right. But, but
that's the clip that basically someone told me You are finished.
You will not come be in what? And I'm like fine. I wasn't going to
these things anyway, for a different reason.
First of all the too many speakers, right? There's so many
speakers who's going to remember what I want to say some that'd be
remembered, right? How can I give a speech one to five people on the
panel who's gonna remember anything right? It's all the same
stuff. Secondly, I go and my kids were living we go to the summit
school then we go to the masjid because you know, they're there
with me all the time. We go to the masjid. Okay, so on our time off
now we're gonna go to another summer conference, right? It's too
much right. So we go to a different city we go to some
sometimes you do National Park. And sometimes we do a City,
Boston, different cities. Right. That's what that was our policy as
a family we know and everyone's a conference is for mainly for that
reason. Enough then like it's too much. He's speaking here speak
like all dad does is talk, give talks, give talk? No, there should
be none of that. There should be grilling all day bumming around by
a river by a stream by a river grilling dogs drilling burgers,
throwing a ball around and taking naps. That's the vacation. Right?
So
that's what I did. So it was convenient for me anyway. Alright,
so I don't even have to say no to the invitations because it's hard
to say no to invitations, when people are nice to you, when they
invite you and stuff like that. It's hard to say no, but because
of that clip.
People told me you're not gonna get any invitations anytime soon.
I said no problem. I wasn't planning on going anyway.
Yeah,
it's kind of related to what you were saying with respect to the
mindset of the Muslim
as a whole Yep. Oh, wait, by the way, one more thing.
Um, middle of the road, softie. No, you know why? Because it
Daniel hochiki.
Moines fav favorite word? The Overton Window went from here
way off the screen right way off the screen No, like the I get I
get their calls all the time. I get that because I'm seeing now as
like the moderate seen voice and now I'm not even say anything.
Regular moms and dads are marching now. Read every message is doing
this stuff that I had said and seemed so radical about in 2014.
Okay, every message even the most posh message and they're having
events to warn the kids hide the kids hide your wife. You remember
that video? That guy? He was onto something right? Hide your Wi Fi
the kids. Okay? Because you're coming out for you and they're
coming for your kids. And he was on the other side of the rainbow
he was
you were saying with respect to the Muslim framing of how we want
to be
I guess you say living in this country as a whole Yeah.
For whatever reason seems like the OMA as a whole the United States
was focusing on validation from the non Muslims
in all these different industries and places so for example, it's
wonderful quote unquote eat
items at Target on sale Yeah, you know, II displays here and there.
Rather than focusing on the fact that we are not celebrating for
people, we're so we are celebrating for Allah subhanaw
taala that the validation comes from Him not from that's so
important. The point that what is our goal? That's I think it was
brought up on the blood brothers podcast, you brought that up? Like
what is our What is our goal here just to protect ourselves? Or do
we have a mission? Do we stand for something? Do we stand? Do we
believe in something? Do we have something that we would live and
die for? That is more important than us? Right? Everyone wants to
live nicely and live well. But you really need something that is
greater than you
and and the general overarching mood of the Muslim community.
Was that we just want to make sure that we're safe. As for the
mission that we're on of the Dow and all that, that is not really
the central point. And that all goes back to intention. What was
the intention of people when they came here? Was not though. The
bulk of the people of course, you ask them, even you asked the best
of them, we came here for a better life. Our country stunk. You know,
people trolls, non Muslim trolls like to always tell you remember
why you came here because your country stink. I said, because my
grandfather's loss of your grandfather's we shouldn't lose.
I'm open about your great grandfather's colonized our great
grandfather's, my great grandmother's last. Now we pay the
price that you get to mock me for that, right. But guess what,
someday, my grandkids will come to your grandkids. Right? It's gonna
happen. Right?
So, and it might be peaceful conquest, conversion, right.
Could be so. So that's, that's, that's a summary of it. Right?
What was the intention when you came here, and they said, we
change our intention afterwards. That's the best of that. of the
immigrants, the best of them said, We came here for a better life, we
saw that our kids are going to need they need a faith, they need
a religion, right? We changed our intention. Those are the best of
the people. But changing your intention is not like building a
foundation, you change your intention, after you have a
mortgage to pay off. Right, you change your intention, after you
got a legal practice or a career that needs to be treated with
gloves, because it's so important. And it's you worked hard, you did
all this, you can't just throw it away, right? You, you change your
intention after you gained a reputation in the local town, as a
good physician or a good
you know, whatever you are, that type of thing with Allah excepted.
But in reality, you're not as mobile, you can't do as much
anymore, right? Because you still have to balance this, you have a
very precious bowl in your hand. Okay. And now you want to, you
know, walk through the fire, right when you have this nice bowl in
your hand, and you don't want to destroy it, because you shouldn't
destroy it either. There's a wisdom for that, too. All of this
is by divine wisdom. People are to blame. But we're not to blame
them.
To say again, all those people are great grandfather's for losing the
wars. There, that is a blameworthy thing, but we're not going to
blame them. It's Allah's wisdom to bring Muslims and put them in this
very situation that we're in. And all we could do. Every single one
of us is our best if we're just doing our best and keeping to the
shittier than we will be whether people like it or not a salvation
force a force of salvation, because when the Muslim comes with
Eman, punishment goes away. When a Muslim is making is too far
punishment goes away. When a Muslim is giving sugar punishment
goes away, Ben also Quran, right? By the pneus of the Quran, so even
your neighbors benefit from you. The whole neighborhood could be as
bad as they want. Some hardships will be lifted from that community
just because one household is seeking God's forgiveness, loving
the Quran loving the prophets of Allah when you listen.
A lot of the Muslims, they complain about the scattering of
the Lord, like you know, this unit or whatever. But it might be if
that was not the case, then places like here would be just wiped off
the map. Yeah, the places there's reason for everything. There's a
reason Allah brought the Muslims here. And let me tell you this,
too, that
I've did a rough estimate that there's 100 million Muslims and
West in English speaking countries. That includes
Australia. Okay, that's a rough estimate. All not English, Western
countries, including Australia, all of Europe, all the European
countries, all of North America, all of Canada, Australia, I think
the numbers like 100 million Muslims, could the Ottoman Empire
have infiltrated 100 million Muslims into those countries
couldn't have done it never done it. There is a reason why Allah
ended that time period, cause the most corrupt people to take over
the Arabs
made them take the socialist ideology which makes you poor, or
the Marxist ideology they write that all those countries are poor.
Okay, like the hardcore socialism in Egypt, you know what they did?
They took farms from people.
So that I'm after that I'm gonna, how are you? They sliced up the
farm. And they told the farm owner,
you now have 1/5 of a farm way who's getting the other forfeits?
Random people,
random people who don't know how to farm. That's why Egypt is no
longer what it used to be Algeria, no Allah. And Allah has in his
wisdom, partition of India,
partition of India, let's Islam in the West in many ways, like as a
connection because you have so many displaced people now. You are
already displaced. I might as well be displaced and living a better
life. Right? That's it. I'm displaced and I'm living now in a
A country that is packed with people too competitive, right? Too
much hard to it's too hard to get a bite, right or eke out a living
here, millions of people. And it was a very bad memory for many
mortgages into Pakistan.
According to what they told me right, and then Kashmir to get cut
up
and is now part of it is in Indian Territory part of it is free in
Pakistan, Azad Kashmir. So what do they do? They say, you know, we're
not happy anymore here. Let's leave it bad memories. Let's
leave. Well, where are we going to go? Now liberals have taken over
England and they feel bad for what they did for colonization, guilt.
So let's give them let's let's bring these people to and give
them paperwork. They come in quick, just come in, and work and
all that stuff.
Okay, now let's so that is the way you have to view things you have
to view things I would know in the podcast with Juliet was saying, He
said, But he kept bringing up and he was doing it totally out of
the air to engage. He doesn't believe in those things. But he
was saying, isn't it reasonable, though, for Muslims to be afraid
when you have all these facts? Right. I said, you've listed
facts, but the way you dealt with it is always shaytaan was to deal
with it. Right? You've listed facts, the but the correct way to
deal with the fact is, see what is Allah's wisdom, everything that
Allah does for a moment, it can be a slingshot back for you, not
against you. Everything, right? Even your own past mistakes.
Malcolm X, best example, did all those bad things. When he turned
his direction to Allah, all those bad deeds became one amazing
experience to rectify the people who are suffering those same ills,
right, and he was the best one to take people out of drugs, take
them out of crime, make them upright, just like you
transformed. Okay? He transformed so many other people. So
you have to look at things in order to act properly get a good
conclusion, you have to look at it from a heartwarming it has to warm
your heart of the wisdom of Allah and this creation in this action.
This is what shook up that hachimura says, Listen what he
says, I don't accept there's a crisis of Islam.
Okay, Islam in modernity is a great religious success story.
Right?
You judge a religion, and the validity of its truth claims on
the basis of whether it is still appealing to people or not. Okay.
And people keep converting to Islam and youth keep upholding
Islam.
Okay. In fact, it would be a worrying indictment of the
legitimacy of the religion of Islam. If the modern world
approved of us. We complain of negative stereotypes and
hostility. Okay. But in fact, that's always been the way of the
believers against the uncomprehending outside world.
That's why when you if you any of you grew up
in the 90s, there was a book that went around that everyone the
first book any Muslim read, it's called milestones.
In that book, it's basically it's a complete in a sense, like
Marxist ideology. Right. But in Islamic terms, but it did have, it
did have a useful aspect to it. He basically said, there's a world of
human and there's a world of cover, and the world of cover is
always at the World War with the world of human
that became like, the underpinning, okay, it's war.
Right?
You go and study for 10 years, you come back, the next generation are
saying, Oh, they're looking at us funny.
It's Islamophobia.
But it's supposed to be right. That's the script. That is the
playbook Allah warned us about. That's the exact thing we've been
warned about. Not to say that you shouldn't do anything. Okay? But
that's what Allah warned about. So for everyone to wonder, Oh, that
they don't like us or whatever.
If it's, they don't like you for your Amen. Isn't that what we're
supposed to expect? And the Quran, suits and brooch 10 times worse
than anything that we're ever experienced, suited to Buddha,
which was about a people who were a minority of believers.
And just like the West, for some reason, they were tolerated. They
were accepted. A king came up and he said, No, I believe in any of
this. These people are a fifth column. We have to finish them all
off. In that time, there was a period of time a couple of
centuries. The methodology of getting rid of those people was it
was efficient. Dig a ditch, start a fire, throw them in there.
That's it. They went out in the open land, dug a huge ditch. Build
a fire everyone contributes throwing some stone throwing some
coals throwing some wood. I don't know if that cold back then but
throwing some wood. Okay, take big fire. And if you're part of that
religion,
class, we're backspacing you were finishing you today, one day,
being the whole population of those people.
One at a time, and they and they see it. And they just say later,
we're gonna die right now. And they did die that happens to human
beings and they were the believing Jews and believing Christians. All
right, that this happened to by the Persians and, and the Romans
and these other people, right? Who did this to them insane.
Degrees of of evil fighting good, the way that evil for good.
Allah says uj he doing if he's a better thought they strive and
struggle and fight for the sake of evil.
Okay, that's how he says how the hockey mod continues
to be fought by the outside world is a sign of our legitimacy.
As a professor in Cambridge saying this, okay, this stuff is not
extreme anymore. These beliefs are used to be considered fringe, they
are the mainstream now, all my positions are the mainstream,
though. I'm telling you, you go to any of these, we could make fun of
them. It's a watered down masjid or whatever, like they're weak,
they send the same stuff now. Everyone's saying the same stuff.
Okay. Those religions that are approved of patted on the head by
secular consumers, capitalist modernity.
capitalistic modernity are, by that very same token, a source of
worry, from the point of view, of legitimate tradition of legitimate
traditional perspective. So we should be proud that the modern
world doesn't like it's a sign of authenticity in an age which has
validly given itself to dunya. And materialism, you will expect the
people of truth to be despised. There are sayings that probably
George Orwell and all these other people said like in a day and era
where lying is the norm, then speaking, the truth is treachery.
Okay, let me read you something else here. hard to read, because
it's a long message, but I think it's important to read.
Okay, if you are a Muslim, or non Muslim, but you don't believe
let's say you're a Catholic, and you don't believe in angels, the
permissibility of * *. Okay? And touching other the same gender
for pleasure. There's an organization called
Okay.
Straight struggle. It's a support group. Open, you can be anonymous
in it.
We the undersigned are Muslim men and women who experienced same *
attractions, a sexuality or gender dysphoria over the years, and
mainly through our involvement with straights struggle, support
group, the straight struggle support group, oh, I guess
straight struggle is generic. It's not, maybe it's Christian, we have
had the pleasure of connecting with hundreds of other Muslims
who share these same feelings. It's an IP tila.
Many men cannot marry and are attracted to females. It's an IP
Tila, and they for some reason, or other, they can't marry.
So it's the same test. The experience has come with some
unique and some common sets of challenges. On the one hand, one
is told to hold strong on the deen and avoid desires. On the other
hand, there are a society telling us embrace these desires. Okay,
make it your identity, be true to yourself. It was not and is not
easy to keep on path will. Okay, especially when the topic is taboo
in many households should not be taboo. Okay, better, better to be
open, good. If there's a struggle or then to suppress it, and that
requires us to not belittle anyone's temptations. Anyone's
sins, do not belittle it, it when they come from a tribe, do
belittle it, and scold it and all that when they have taken it as a
source of fun, or pride. Because now you've joined this camp of
Satan with that behavior. They call their hope. You're proud of
it. We don't take pride in our temptations and our sins, we all
have sins.
So he says there on this note, we emphasize that there's a
difference between same * attraction and same * behavior.
While the behaviors are sinful and same * identity, I guess you can
add that the behaviors are sinful and immoral. The attraction is not
it's out of our hands. Okay. relationship with Allah and
holding steadfast to the religion has been vital for our journey.
Keeping good company with good practice and Muslims also helped
many of us immensely.
We should help them we should support them. We do not view our
struggle as an identity. We reject the terms gay, queer, etc. and
reject you see how this is mainstream now? Yes, of course, he
posted this.
Yeah, he posted the letter from the guy and guy's name is there. I
read it you use of Cena? Good. He posted it all public. Okay. He
says here that we do not recognize these terms for us ourselves. And
we reject the notion that desires define us.
We also reject the deeply misguided effort of some who wish
to distort the teaching of Islam to
with their desires, an attempt to make what is haram how to spend to
what He Allah telling you.
Clear.
Speak. You know, it's clear what he's saying. He understands his
Deen Well, thereby misguiding vulnerable Muslims into thinking
that acting on same * attractions is allowed in Islam.
We ask Allah to protect us and from such acts and he's not. If
Allah loves you, are you not? Are you really?
That's That's the summary of what Allah loves you does not Allah and
Allah had a Tobin.
Where Hibben wants authority, Allah loves the penitent. What is
the penitent? Is it someone who feels the urge to commit sins and
doesn't know is someone who feels it's common sense and does it then
makes repentance that is the one whom Allah loves, not to say the
one who feels the urges,
recognize this wrong and avoids it, or that you're even beyond
that, at that point, you're most of you are from the Matata hidden,
even though the verse has came to a literal thing, people purifying
themselves from an agenda
and avoiding shirk. But it also applies the language of it allows
for what I just said, The one who falls into sins, and repents is
the web. And the one who avoids his sins altogether, is the most
subtle hedge, he's purified his heart.
Over the years, our scholars have started paying more attention to
the issue of people dealing with same * attraction and gender
dysphoria. Though we do do feel there is still work to be done in
terms of guidance and mentors, I would invite him to MBSE to talk
can you find him look them up? Yusuf Salam.
Okay. Also out of necessity and our lived reality here in the
West, the recent statement of by scholars called navigating
differences, clarifying sexual and gender ethics in Islam is one that
we support. And some of us are signatories.
Okay, we need a way to live in the society despite our different
morals. And this when they the biggest part that they said they
said about it is
how could you say in the statement, live harmoniously? I
know. I think that the the authors were writing about that
generically as a principle, but the way I understand it, okay.
The way I understand it, is that harmoniously Meaning I'm not
hitting you, you're not hitting me I'm not fighting you. You're not
fighting me. That's how like legally according to the bounds,
the what we're bound by, go to our brothers and sisters who are
dealing with same * attraction and gender dysphoria. Please note
that you are not alone. We also recognize that there are people
out there who are trying to reshape religion to suit their
desires, we urge you to reject those attempts. Those vain
attempts and adhere as much as possible to the beautiful religion
teaching the Quran and the Sunnah. Our life is much too precious to
waste on following desires in harm haram actions. Despite sinning
Allah gives us a wonderful gift of tilba Okay, there we go. Okay
wonderful and very useful resource that addresses many of the same
* attractions and gender dysphoria through a Muslim lens is
