Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam

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

ala Rasulillah. Early here was behavoir. Manuela welcome

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

everybody, to the SOFIA society, nothing but facts live stream on a

00:00:14 --> 00:00:18

cold all of a sudden day in the great state of New Jersey Sunny.

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

But for some reason, it is cold again, I don't know why it's cold.

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

But

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

yeah, maybe just didn't hear but

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

we got a couple of segments today. The first thing I want to talk

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

about is Shaun King entering Islam and then getting slammed by a lot

00:00:34 --> 00:00:39

of people who have issues with Him from before he entered Islam. And

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

apparently those issues have to do with two fundraising

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

campaigns that he ran in which people felt

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

strongly enough to accuse him of taking the funds. So big

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

accusation and

00:00:59 --> 00:01:03

and that he fundraisers too much. Well, here's the thing with that

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

you either have proof that the man's soul or you don't.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:11

That's how I look at it. That's number one. But number two, what

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

does that have to do with the guy becoming a muslim?

00:01:14 --> 00:01:18

Let's hypothetically say he stole right. Thieves don't have beliefs.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:22

Let's take it to the worst possible scenario, right? An

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

absolute thief enters Islam.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:29

You don't think thieves actually think about God and maybe do have

00:01:29 --> 00:01:29

beliefs?

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

It's another grift of his really? That's not a good grift

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

you're not a good grifter. If you're if becoming a muslim as

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

part of your deal. There is not a lot of paychecks gonna be being a

00:01:43 --> 00:01:47

Zionist as far better. Right? Think about that.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:53

grifter. I mean, he's there. He was already a what is it? Before

00:01:53 --> 00:01:57

that he was one of these Baptists. Okay.

00:01:59 --> 00:02:03

This is not a smart grift it's not a smart move to grift. Secondly,

00:02:03 --> 00:02:07

wouldn't he want to publicize it? Because last I checked, he didn't

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

domestic did

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

the

00:02:11 --> 00:02:15

East Plano mosque had their livestream going and most masajid.

00:02:15 --> 00:02:18

They just got a camera sitting there. Anytime there's an event

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

going on. If the Imam sneezes, they turn the camera on, right?

00:02:22 --> 00:02:25

Anytime a guest comes in, they turn this livestream on. I've seen

00:02:25 --> 00:02:29

this in small time masajid, where they've set it up that there's a

00:02:29 --> 00:02:33

camera sitting there hooked up to the computer to their YouTube page

00:02:33 --> 00:02:37

or whatever page and the moment an event starts, just click a button.

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

That's it.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:42

And then, so it happens to be streamed. Right?

00:02:44 --> 00:02:49

So my question is, though, there is number one, to attack this or

00:02:49 --> 00:02:52

to question the sincerity of a Muslim.

00:02:53 --> 00:02:56

You may have your own personal beliefs, but you keep it to

00:02:56 --> 00:02:59

yourself because it's nothing other than a personal speculation.

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

What's the proof of that? Prove that is that was sama bin Zayed

00:03:05 --> 00:03:06

came upon a man

00:03:07 --> 00:03:08

in a battle.

00:03:09 --> 00:03:13

And this man, he got him basically about to kill him.

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

And he ended up the man said, Okay, Leila illAllah. Muhammad

00:03:17 --> 00:03:17

Rasul Allah.

00:03:19 --> 00:03:24

This is fake guilt. Right? That's what what happened with the great

00:03:24 --> 00:03:30

companion Osama bin Zayed, who was the son of Zayed bin had etha who

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

was at one point, Zayed bin Mohammed, he had was adopted by

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

the Prophet peace be upon it's number one.

00:03:37 --> 00:03:43

So Zaid Bin, Osama bin Zaid killed him set this man, it's a fixer

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

head. He's just trying to save his life.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:51

Okay. And then word spread to the Messenger of Allah salAllahu

00:03:51 --> 00:03:54

Salam, and he said, Oh, some what happens? He said this business,

00:03:55 --> 00:04:00

the Prophet peace be upon him said as Shakta on Saturday he did you

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

open his heart to look at what's inside.

00:04:06 --> 00:04:09

A chakra on Saturday, Chaka sang kalbi

00:04:10 --> 00:04:11

to see what's inside.

00:04:13 --> 00:04:18

So if that's the case for a man who was obviously saving his life,

00:04:19 --> 00:04:23

so it's up to us, obviously to us, but are we allowed to act upon it?

00:04:23 --> 00:04:27

The answer is no. Because we have a law people, we have a law, we

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

act upon the law.

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

The law treats you by what you can prove it treats you by the

00:04:33 --> 00:04:37

outward. I can't prove anything is on the inside or not on the

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

inside.

00:04:39 --> 00:04:42

So if that's the case with Osama bin Zaid

00:04:43 --> 00:04:48

and that campaign, and that man who uttered the shahada, and then

00:04:48 --> 00:04:50

was killed and the Prophet peace, who bonza Did you open his heart?

00:04:53 --> 00:04:57

That is far more worthy to say it about this man, who was not

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

fighting the Muslims was not fighting for his life.

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

and is making a decision that will really make it his economic life

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

much harder.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:10

His financial life much harder. We don't have multimillion people

00:05:10 --> 00:05:15

speaking tours go around, ask her out. We don't have multimillion

00:05:15 --> 00:05:20

dollar or institutions that are given 15,000 2002. I mean,

00:05:20 --> 00:05:25

20,000 $30,000 gigs to talk. And that's not even a lot of money in

00:05:25 --> 00:05:26

today's day and age.

00:05:28 --> 00:05:33

In a regular institution, if a celebrity could get 50k K, just to

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

show up and talk for 20 minutes.

00:05:38 --> 00:05:42

So point being in our law by Islam, we're not allowed to say

00:05:42 --> 00:05:47

he's a fraud in his shahada, he's a fake in his shadow, you want to

00:05:47 --> 00:05:50

say, I don't like the way he does business? I don't like his

00:05:50 --> 00:05:54

personality. Find say that all you want. But you cannot now doubt

00:05:54 --> 00:05:59

someone's head. That's not allowed in Islam. Simple as that. Now, let

00:05:59 --> 00:06:02

me talk about something else. Why don't we let people prove

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

themselves.

00:06:03 --> 00:06:06

And by the way, they don't have to prove anything to us. They don't

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

always zilch to us. When you become Muslim, if you're out

00:06:10 --> 00:06:13

there, and you think you are becoming a muslim. You don't owe

00:06:13 --> 00:06:19

the community zilch. You don't have to prove yourself. This is

00:06:19 --> 00:06:23

actually promote hypocrisy, when people act like this. I'll prove

00:06:23 --> 00:06:27

you're, you know, it promotes hypocrisy and the whole woke

00:06:27 --> 00:06:29

world. It's all a bunch of hypocrites.

00:06:30 --> 00:06:36

Okay, I'll tell you what I mean. They constantly want you to prove

00:06:37 --> 00:06:43

that you're not racist, prove that you're not something else. Right?

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47

Prove your that you're not against women.

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

Prove that you're all about diversity. So what does this

00:06:50 --> 00:06:56

promote? It's resulted in a bunch of fakes a bunch of people who are

00:06:56 --> 00:06:59

just, it's what they call performative

00:07:00 --> 00:07:01

performance.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

Just to make sure that nobody calls me this, that or the other.

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

Right.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:12

That's all that's what it's become. So when you're, you become

00:07:12 --> 00:07:16

a community where someone has to prove themselves to you. No, I'll

00:07:16 --> 00:07:18

tell you who has to prove themselves to you. Anytime that

00:07:18 --> 00:07:22

you and that person are going to have some kind of share a risk.

00:07:22 --> 00:07:26

Like what you want to marry into my family. Well, you're guilty

00:07:26 --> 00:07:29

until proven innocent. No, no, it's not your right

00:07:30 --> 00:07:35

to marry somebody said a right that you have. And it's not your

00:07:35 --> 00:07:38

right upon me that I have to accept you. You need to prove

00:07:38 --> 00:07:41

yourself. If I have to hire you have a job.

00:07:42 --> 00:07:43

Then I want to hire you.

00:07:46 --> 00:07:50

It's not your right to take this job. It's not my my right to give

00:07:50 --> 00:07:55

you money. It's not Zika it's my it's my company. It's my store,

00:07:55 --> 00:07:56

whatever.

00:07:57 --> 00:08:02

So when there's a job when there's for example, Hey, you have room in

00:08:02 --> 00:08:05

your apartment? Yes, I do. Oh, good. I need an apartment. You

00:08:05 --> 00:08:06

want to split rent?

00:08:07 --> 00:08:10

I don't have to split rent with you. It's not charity. This is not

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

Sikka.

00:08:12 --> 00:08:16

I have to see who you are first. So there are certain things in

00:08:16 --> 00:08:20

Islam, that the is fair for us to say you better prove yourself.

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

You understand?

00:08:25 --> 00:08:30

But at their actual faith, listen, if you want to donate to his

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

charity, interrogate him all you want. If it's about marrying him,

00:08:34 --> 00:08:37

interrogate him all you want. If it's about hiring him, interrogate

00:08:37 --> 00:08:40

him all you want. But when someone takes the shahada, you're not

00:08:40 --> 00:08:42

allowed to say he's a liar, and it's a grift.

00:08:44 --> 00:08:47

Isn't that fair? And simple to? It's very fair, I think. And it's

00:08:47 --> 00:08:52

very simple. And let me go back to the point let us hypothetically

00:08:52 --> 00:08:52

say

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57

that a guy the guy is a complete thief.

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

Okay.

00:09:03 --> 00:09:06

Don't thieves also have like religious proclivities at some

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

point, can do we have the Hadith of the 19? The guy killed 99

00:09:11 --> 00:09:14

people, then he goes in as a worshiper. Is there any

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

forgiveness for me? I killed 99 People that worshiper was

00:09:17 --> 00:09:21

ignorant. He was pious, but ignorant. He said 99 How do you

00:09:21 --> 00:09:23

kill 99 people? Right.

00:09:27 --> 00:09:32

And so he killed that guy, boom. 100 people he killed. So I mean,

00:09:32 --> 00:09:37

the man is trying to make repentance after killing 100

00:09:37 --> 00:09:39

People murder of 100 people.

00:09:40 --> 00:09:43

A scholar said yes, repentance. He can't he went to a scholar. He did

00:09:43 --> 00:09:45

the right thing. You went to a scholar? He said yes.

00:09:46 --> 00:09:48

100 people.

00:09:49 --> 00:09:52

You can still make Toba even if he killed 100 people.

00:09:54 --> 00:09:58

So he then went, he said you need to go move to another city because

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

this the people of this city

00:10:00 --> 00:10:02

They're no good. Why are they No? Good? They're no good for a couple

00:10:02 --> 00:10:03

of reasons.

00:10:04 --> 00:10:05

Number one,

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

you killed 99 people, and no one established that punishment on

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

you. Right? These people are definitely no good.

00:10:15 --> 00:10:19

You killed 100 people, no one advised you nobody stopped you

00:10:19 --> 00:10:25

physically? No good. Right? So these people are no good. So move

00:10:25 --> 00:10:29

to this other city where the people are good. So he did move to

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

that city and but on the way there,

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

he died.

00:10:34 --> 00:10:35

When he died,

00:10:37 --> 00:10:41

the angel of * came to take him and the angel of mercy came to

00:10:41 --> 00:10:41

take him.

00:10:43 --> 00:10:47

And then they argued, is this man to *, or to heaven.

00:10:48 --> 00:10:52

So then they had to get an arbitrator. So a third angel came

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

to arbitrate between them. I don't know if it was Djibouti or

00:10:55 --> 00:11:00

somebody else. From Dominica. The angel came to arbitrate between

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

them and said, Okay, why don't we measure the distance? That's the

00:11:02 --> 00:11:05

fair arbitration if he had made it to the New City?

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

Right halfway to the New City, then yes.

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

Go goes to heaven. His job is accepted. If he makes it to, if he

00:11:17 --> 00:11:21

didn't, then no, take him to *, because he didn't fulfill his

00:11:21 --> 00:11:27

repentance. So they measured and they found he was short. He didn't

00:11:27 --> 00:11:28

make it to the halfway point.

00:11:32 --> 00:11:36

But then Allah caused an earthquake to occur, and when the

00:11:36 --> 00:11:41

earthquake occurred, then he had made the distance and he was taken

00:11:41 --> 00:11:46

to paradise. Okay, this man killed 100 people no one questioned his

00:11:46 --> 00:11:46

repentance

00:11:51 --> 00:11:55

no excuse on this one it's pretty cut and dry. Don't Don't

00:11:57 --> 00:11:59

you don't like his charity? Don't Don't don't eat his charity. You

00:11:59 --> 00:12:03

don't like his talks? Don't listen to this talk. Same Same exact

00:12:03 --> 00:12:04

thing I said about interfaith.

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

You don't like him? Don't listen to him. But to question if someone

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

isn't Muslim is not it's not allowed for us to do you want to

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

say he's a hypocrite of actions. So yeah, fine. Say what you want.

00:12:16 --> 00:12:20

Hypocrite of actions is that we don't we we're not saying that

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22

you're a liar in your heart. We're saying that your actions don't

00:12:22 --> 00:12:25

match your behavior, your your your words, say what you want. You

00:12:25 --> 00:12:27

want to say he's a festival say what you want.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:31

I you know, I would I say about Andrew Tate. I actually

00:12:33 --> 00:12:36

I don't I don't just believe that he's, same thing with Shaun King.

00:12:37 --> 00:12:41

I take it further at at his face value that he converted to Islam.

00:12:42 --> 00:12:45

When I listened to his podcast with Muhammad hijab, I liked a lot

00:12:45 --> 00:12:48

of things that he says I do, like a lot of things that he says, and

00:12:48 --> 00:12:51

as a ton of stuff. It's total garbage. Right? And let me tell

00:12:51 --> 00:12:54

you this, but here's my biggest critique of him. And it's just a

00:12:54 --> 00:12:58

critique of like, his philosophy or whatever he's movement he's

00:12:58 --> 00:12:59

doing, right.

00:13:01 --> 00:13:06

Brother, you don't go home to take care of a wife or kids. You don't

00:13:06 --> 00:13:10

take care of anybody. You go home. Yes, I know you're like under

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

house arrest. But even before that, you go home and you buy

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

bodies and you buy cars and you do all the other other things. Smoke

00:13:17 --> 00:13:20

cigar hang out with the boys in play poker. What are you talking

00:13:20 --> 00:13:23

about manhood you had not put showed in your life? One thing of

00:13:23 --> 00:13:30

manhood. kickboxing, okay, fine. But manhood is not to go hang out

00:13:30 --> 00:13:34

with your boys. Smoke cigar and stream and then of course you're

00:13:34 --> 00:13:37

working out so well. Right? Because you got all the time in

00:13:37 --> 00:13:38

the world.

00:13:39 --> 00:13:42

If I had that amount of time I could work out as better than you.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

Yeah, scattered all over the world with all different women.

00:13:50 --> 00:13:56

Good Dad. Good Dad. Are you do you raise them every day? Do you wake

00:13:56 --> 00:13:59

them up for school? Do you wake them up for for whatever it else

00:13:59 --> 00:14:04

do you take drive? Good dad is the guy who does the absolute most

00:14:05 --> 00:14:10

tedious things with their kids. That was what I would call a good

00:14:10 --> 00:14:15

debt. The guy who goes drives the kid to practice weights they're in

00:14:15 --> 00:14:19

the car. Okay, maybe takes his laptop with him thing goes take

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

some back. Hey, has math. Alright, let's work on these math

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

questions. Meanwhile, the guy has spent zero time on himself. The

00:14:29 --> 00:14:33

men that is a good dad. Then when he gets home okay, the kids done

00:14:33 --> 00:14:36

we're taking care of that. Alright, what's next? Oh, I got a

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

meeting for this organization. I'm a volunteer for Alright, what's

00:14:38 --> 00:14:41

next after that? Alright, let's go sit down and have a cup of tea.

00:14:42 --> 00:14:43

You know with the wife

00:14:46 --> 00:14:50

it's not a you're not a man. When you got all the time in the world

00:14:50 --> 00:14:51

for yourself.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:58

That's improve anything, and then go to the gym. All right, and then

00:14:58 --> 00:14:59

take pictures

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

And then here's my, my my car that you got from basically selling

00:15:06 --> 00:15:09

women essentially. That was the main business that he started but

00:15:09 --> 00:15:12

that was before slim so let's not hold him accountable to that. I'm

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

telling you I like a lot of things he said but I'm sitting talking to

00:15:14 --> 00:15:19

this man who think it's old because it's complete because you

00:15:19 --> 00:15:23

do not take care of anybody on a day to day basis. Now, I'm not

00:15:23 --> 00:15:25

saying this to trash the guy because as I said, I actually do

00:15:25 --> 00:15:27

like him. Right, generally speaking.

00:15:29 --> 00:15:32

But this thing now you're not taking care of anybody. You're not

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

representing this thing properly. Most of these things that Allah

00:15:36 --> 00:15:41

says original COVID Munna Allah Nisa, meaning they are providing

00:15:42 --> 00:15:45

the services needed for this woman to live well. And they're taking

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

care. He's taking care of her kids, and taking care of a lot of

00:15:49 --> 00:15:52

things in the community. Okay, so that they could have a good

00:15:52 --> 00:15:56

community life that is kolam, constant, constantly non stop

00:15:57 --> 00:16:03

standing up, non stop doing stuff. That's the aspiration, that stuff

00:16:03 --> 00:16:06

is never gonna make it on Instagram and Twitter and with

00:16:06 --> 00:16:07

that generation

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

of people

00:16:10 --> 00:16:14

making money is a sliver of that. It's a very important part of

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

that. There's no doubt about that. Okay.

00:16:17 --> 00:16:22

But it's, it's not the main part of it. So Oh, likewise, Owen

00:16:22 --> 00:16:25

Benjamin, when he was interested in Islam, I'm interested to talk

00:16:25 --> 00:16:25

to him.

00:16:27 --> 00:16:30

If he loses his interest in Islam, that's his choice, right?

00:16:30 --> 00:16:34

colorless, does it so all three of them, all three of them, you can

00:16:34 --> 00:16:37

make critiques of them. One you can say, oh my gosh, what what he

00:16:37 --> 00:16:41

said about blacks is absurd. I agree. hulless we're not going to

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

this is how I view it in Islam.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:49

The prophesy centum said the Muslims are one body, if one part

00:16:49 --> 00:16:55

of them is injured, right is hurt than all of them are awake.

00:16:56 --> 00:16:57

And fever, which means

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

I'm not Pakistani I don't know about Pakistani politics. But if

00:17:01 --> 00:17:05

there was a civil war in Pakistan, all my friends it doesn't it's not

00:17:05 --> 00:17:08

it would not touch my household life. My extended family My in

00:17:08 --> 00:17:13

laws would not touch our life. Not 1% yet, all my friends are Paxton.

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

Okay.

00:17:16 --> 00:17:18

All the restaurants I go to are Pakistani.

00:17:19 --> 00:17:22

Okay. So therefore they're affected you think now I'm going

00:17:22 --> 00:17:26

to completely ignore it. I have to look into it now as a Muslim

00:17:26 --> 00:17:31

brother and feel for them. I gotta have some kind of sensitivity to

00:17:31 --> 00:17:35

that same thing with African Americans. Same thing with white

00:17:35 --> 00:17:41

Americans. Same thing with Hispanic Americans, whatever. And,

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

of course, the whole amount Philistine.

00:17:45 --> 00:17:50

95% of the almost not even Philistine, right. 80% of the OMA

00:17:50 --> 00:17:55

is not even Arab. Speaking at least, right? So that's, that is

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

our Arpita. That is our approach. So anything that is in generally

00:18:00 --> 00:18:04

upsetting to a group of people becomes upsetting to all of us, by

00:18:04 --> 00:18:09

religious mandate, right by religious men. So like, Oh, do you

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

care about oh, you tell me there's a there's a coup d'etat in Costa

00:18:12 --> 00:18:15

Rica, I could care less. Right. Now you say, oh, no, Costa Rica.

00:18:15 --> 00:18:17

They're all from the Muslim. They're all Muslims. All right.

00:18:17 --> 00:18:19

Now, I guess I have to care. Right.

00:18:20 --> 00:18:23

I'll go look it up. And I'll spend a few minutes I'll ask a Costa

00:18:23 --> 00:18:26

Rican Brother, what's going on here? And then I care, right,

00:18:26 --> 00:18:29

other than I genuinely would not care. How many how much can I

00:18:29 --> 00:18:30

care? There's too much information.

00:18:33 --> 00:18:38

So that's the point. So we we need to denounce from a person what

00:18:38 --> 00:18:40

they do that is contradictory to the Quran.

00:18:41 --> 00:18:44

And the Sunnah, and the Sharia. And if they do something good, we

00:18:44 --> 00:18:48

accept it. And my role on podcasts on the stream is to just talk to

00:18:48 --> 00:18:51

anyone who's interested in Islam. So whether it's Shaun King,

00:18:52 --> 00:18:52

whether it's

00:18:54 --> 00:18:55

anyone else?

00:18:57 --> 00:18:57

Good.

00:19:00 --> 00:19:01

Segment Number Two.

00:19:03 --> 00:19:08

Are the Muslims going to abandon Biden? Let's talk about this.

00:19:08 --> 00:19:14

Let's bring on our guests. Has an Abdus Salam, welcome to the Safina

00:19:14 --> 00:19:17

society nothing but facts live stream

so the volumes on maybe he's not on

00:19:40 --> 00:19:41

say something real quick.

00:19:42 --> 00:19:47

No, no, he can't hear him. It's not the TV saw the TV. It's maybe

00:19:47 --> 00:19:49

it's watching we'll call it

00:19:50 --> 00:19:51

it's either

00:19:53 --> 00:19:54

stream yard

00:19:58 --> 00:20:00

it's either stream yard or some

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

than else you guys can hear him but I can hear him

00:20:09 --> 00:20:10

Yeah, you guys can hear him but I can't hear

00:20:14 --> 00:20:16

in the meantime, speaking of stream yard I was asked to come

00:20:16 --> 00:20:19

onto stream yard by another gentleman. His name is

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

domestically

00:20:22 --> 00:20:24

did come and debate me on stream yard.

00:20:26 --> 00:20:30

You know, domestically you know what he called me a scorpion while

00:20:30 --> 00:20:33

we fix this. I'll just tell you the story. He said, We have a new

00:20:33 --> 00:20:37

Scorpion in town who's the new Scorpion? It's me why because I

00:20:37 --> 00:20:41

said selfie as a fifth method and we're not following it. So what is

00:20:41 --> 00:20:44

that? Is that from khoy to Dean or something

00:20:45 --> 00:20:49

that you would get to call what is the what is the issue here? Minute

00:20:49 --> 00:20:52

co I did Dean right that

00:20:54 --> 00:20:55

you have to believe in Sofia

00:20:56 --> 00:20:58

Subhan Allah share a Jeep

00:21:04 --> 00:21:06

something happened when Zeb was was here.

00:21:08 --> 00:21:09

Yeah, I've been gone.

00:21:10 --> 00:21:12

So let's let's keep working on that.

00:21:14 --> 00:21:18

Anyway, Hudson, stay with us while we fix it. We'll do the second

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

segment that I wanted to do, which was the mess Ella on niqab.

00:21:24 --> 00:21:28

I just answered a question the other day correctly and accurately

00:21:28 --> 00:21:33

in the Maliki school. What Imam Khalil says or carry her into

00:21:33 --> 00:21:37

macabre chin This is from it's in the book of

00:21:40 --> 00:21:43

preconditions of Salah, the coverage of a woman and the

00:21:43 --> 00:21:47

coverage of a man in prayer. And what is discouraged? So it is

00:21:47 --> 00:21:51

discouraged. And I'm going to read to you here that's the text from

00:21:51 --> 00:21:56

study. What are you to hear what data D It says a toggle Thea to

00:21:56 --> 00:22:01

what G had been niqab covering her face with niqab whoa what may

00:22:01 --> 00:22:06

y'all see Lou little or Yun got that which reaches the eye? The no

00:22:06 --> 00:22:12

Minella Hulu because it is from what is extreme is what is

00:22:12 --> 00:22:16

extremes what is Hulu and Sharia the definition of Hulu is to

00:22:17 --> 00:22:20

obligate that which Allah did not obligate with the Sharia did an

00:22:20 --> 00:22:24

obligate okay and you can find that definition in Nefer always

00:22:24 --> 00:22:29

commentary on a reseller All right. Well rajulio Hola. And a

00:22:29 --> 00:22:37

man of course cannot cover his face is mcru however, if it is now

00:22:37 --> 00:22:40

this is inside of Salah and outside of Salah the CARA he had

00:22:40 --> 00:22:41

the discouragement

00:22:43 --> 00:22:48

is inside of Salah or outside of so who says that? This okay he

00:22:48 --> 00:22:54

says here a sofa and cannot feel solids and Elfi have at her candle

00:22:54 --> 00:23:02

into kaaboo fearly edge li hola so Hola. So he says it is mcru inside

00:23:02 --> 00:23:06

of Salah or outside of Salah. Why because is Gulu what is the Sookie

00:23:07 --> 00:23:10

he gives you the same meaning that nephrology gives later on because

00:23:10 --> 00:23:17

nothing that we came later he says a as Ziad fit Dean. Okay, so if

00:23:17 --> 00:23:17

something

00:23:19 --> 00:23:25

all right is in the religion and you went took it an obligated more

00:23:25 --> 00:23:26

than what Allah obligated

00:23:27 --> 00:23:30

that's what we call a lulu. If you brought something completely

00:23:30 --> 00:23:32

outside of the deen

00:23:33 --> 00:23:37

completely outside the deen that's a bitter that's a difference.

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

Okay,

00:23:39 --> 00:23:47

so all Hulu is better but not all Bidda is Hulu is the all Hulu is

00:23:47 --> 00:23:49

better because you're bringing something you're gonna you're

00:23:49 --> 00:23:52

stretching something and making an obligation that is not there in

00:23:52 --> 00:23:52

the religion.

00:23:54 --> 00:23:55

Okay,

00:23:56 --> 00:24:02

now there's some commentary though. He says mal Aamir Khan min

00:24:02 --> 00:24:08

ko Minaya data homothetic meaning interclub if you come upon a

00:24:08 --> 00:24:12

people and the way that they dress is to cover their face for Encana

00:24:12 --> 00:24:14

Mel Coleman, I admit to him that IQ

00:24:16 --> 00:24:18

and he gives an example like the people of Neff Musa

00:24:21 --> 00:24:23

and Masuka in Morocco,

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

for a niqab. I'm in debt be him in the pub. Is there their habit?

00:24:29 --> 00:24:31

Well, I mean, I adapt, I adapt to him.

00:24:32 --> 00:24:38

Lay it through Kuno, Aslan, Fil A okra, intercom. They all cover

00:24:38 --> 00:24:38

their bases.

00:24:39 --> 00:24:43

And also we have to remember to the toric people, the men cover

00:24:43 --> 00:24:44

their faces from the scent.

00:24:45 --> 00:24:50

So if covering the face for any reason, is just odd to have the

00:24:50 --> 00:24:54

comb. It's a habit of the people that it's not my crew. Right, then

00:24:54 --> 00:24:59

you can wear it. Outside solo, not inside stuff. Okay,

00:25:01 --> 00:25:08

Heather Kulu filovirus Salah who am fee her in the Salafi okra is

00:25:08 --> 00:25:11

always mcru Even we're in our tea that can

00:25:15 --> 00:25:16

talk about them even if it's

00:25:19 --> 00:25:21

a habit of the people so insights loves different amounts excellent

00:25:22 --> 00:25:28

kolu for niqab will mcru Hoon, Malacca? It is mcru Metallica,

00:25:28 --> 00:25:34

Kana fists sadati elkaar eg her, sir on Kana fear, Holly actually I

00:25:34 --> 00:25:39

will leave it her. Okay. Regardless insula outside salaam,

00:25:39 --> 00:25:43

Madame Yakuza, as long as it's not the common behavior of that

00:25:43 --> 00:25:48

people, and that if so then fell ACARA. Right, she Khadija because

00:25:48 --> 00:25:51

if he touched me read for me and he goes on to other subjects now.

00:25:52 --> 00:26:00

Now what about if there is fiscal and harm, then? That's a separate

00:26:00 --> 00:26:04

question set to run wedge he Makaha tell fitna is a whole

00:26:04 --> 00:26:10

nother question. And at that point, there is no one to say

00:26:10 --> 00:26:14

generally right away, what is the fitna and what is a facet? That's

00:26:14 --> 00:26:17

up for discussion. So there there is a clarify is not a

00:26:17 --> 00:26:21

clarification. It's just repeating exactly what I said on that clip

00:26:21 --> 00:26:24

that went on to YouTube. That surprised many people because they

00:26:24 --> 00:26:28

didn't know the medical school. And now let's ask some other

00:26:28 --> 00:26:32

questions. How is it that

00:26:33 --> 00:26:37

the wives of the Prophet were nipa answers questions very simple, was

00:26:37 --> 00:26:41

crucial. See, it is something very specific to them. I think it's

00:26:41 --> 00:26:42

fixed now.

00:26:44 --> 00:26:47

Lower the volume at least so it doesn't interfere. There we go.

00:26:50 --> 00:26:53

The wives of the prophets of Allah what He said him war niqab. That's

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

Hosea for them. They're also not allowed to marry after the

00:26:56 --> 00:26:58

prophets of Allah when he was seven. They're also nine in number

00:26:58 --> 00:27:02

where it can be more than for a number for everyone else.

00:27:03 --> 00:27:08

So it's not a Hulu for them. That's the hokum for them. And as

00:27:08 --> 00:27:13

a Hulu for everybody else, the Hadith the colon fuss first of

00:27:13 --> 00:27:17

all, it's one of the matters of the Ahmed masala of how the women

00:27:17 --> 00:27:21

dress. So why would they the scholars need textual proof for

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

this though, of course, we have checks for fruit proof for

00:27:23 --> 00:27:29

everything. But don't the Sahaba didn't their wives. Didn't they

00:27:29 --> 00:27:32

know how their wives dressed? Didn't the tablet he knows how

00:27:32 --> 00:27:36

their moms dressed? Who are Sahaba yet, right. They know how their

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

moms dressed. They know how you know their wives are supposed to

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

dress.

00:27:42 --> 00:27:46

They never went outside. So how did they go to Mecca? How did they

00:27:46 --> 00:27:50

make ombre? How do they make Hajj didn't they have to walk outside

00:27:50 --> 00:27:54

in the street? It's far fetched to say that women in that time never

00:27:54 --> 00:27:57

walked out in the street. As far fetched. They did walk out on the

00:27:57 --> 00:28:02

street for needs. Even some of the prophets say that the whole hadith

00:28:02 --> 00:28:06

of if she learned that she was being accused when she was out

00:28:06 --> 00:28:09

with OMA Miss DOP was getting something from the marketplace.

00:28:09 --> 00:28:11

Right? So they did walk around.

00:28:13 --> 00:28:17

Didn't they know how to dress? So that's from the Ahmed another

00:28:21 --> 00:28:27

perspective of that the textual evidence is the hadith of Alfred

00:28:27 --> 00:28:30

living Ibis. When a woman came up to him, and she was very

00:28:30 --> 00:28:34

attractive and sheet and the Prophet turns his face to not look

00:28:34 --> 00:28:37

at her. Therefore, she wasn't covering her face. That's number

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

one. That's the first proof right there.

00:28:41 --> 00:28:45

And he didn't he didn't tell her to cover her face. Otherwise, no

00:28:45 --> 00:28:50

niqab is gonna come and you're looking at her? No. So that's

00:28:50 --> 00:28:54

first second proof right there. Is that on that issue? Or that

00:28:54 --> 00:28:57

instance is she asked, what has to be has to be covered? He said

00:28:57 --> 00:28:59

everything except this and this.

00:29:01 --> 00:29:01

So

00:29:03 --> 00:29:06

that's the textual proof. Now what about college a yard on one of the

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

famous Islam? QA websites, called the Ayyad said it's mostly a hub.

00:29:13 --> 00:29:17

answer to that is called the a yard. Not all of his federal

00:29:17 --> 00:29:21

represent the dominant opinion the medical school. He came very

00:29:21 --> 00:29:28

early, before the final say was, was documented that lien is the

00:29:28 --> 00:29:35

final say, because he took from the four most dominant, most

00:29:35 --> 00:29:40

authoritative books in the medical school. Okay. He took from a

00:29:40 --> 00:29:45

Lakshmi he took from Ibn Yunus, which is called most half and

00:29:45 --> 00:29:51

Maliki had been Eunice's book. He took from hypnosis to the jet, the

00:29:51 --> 00:29:57

grandfather hypnosis headband he was seen and he took from

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

it

00:30:00 --> 00:30:06

As a lucky web newness web notice still Jad the fourth one skipping

00:30:06 --> 00:30:08

me but he took from for

00:30:11 --> 00:30:14

it took from Lucky his teacher what's the Who's the lucky Miss

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

teacher?

00:30:16 --> 00:30:20

We'll get that for you another time but he took that from those

00:30:20 --> 00:30:21

four

00:30:22 --> 00:30:23

names skipping me

00:30:24 --> 00:30:28

right now but he took from those four books so he is the dominant

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

one. Can we test has a no

00:30:32 --> 00:30:35

All right, you should be good to go this one. Let's try it

00:30:37 --> 00:30:41

now still not working. So it tries to try stream yard go into stream

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

yard make sure his mic is on.

00:30:45 --> 00:30:48

Try settings go. It's from stream yard. It must be from stream yard.

00:30:49 --> 00:30:50

Because when you tried YouTube it worked.

00:30:55 --> 00:30:58

Meanwhile, let's take a few questions on

00:31:01 --> 00:31:05

from here before we get to that, one of the things about niqab I

00:31:05 --> 00:31:09

would wear it only in so much as I hate the gazes of people and

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

particularly the iron that people give so if I was all covered up I

00:31:13 --> 00:31:14

protected myself completely

00:31:17 --> 00:31:22

so set total watch covering the face not out of out of but because

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

it is possibly fitna yeah that that could even be fought at some

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

point. Right? It's not far off that a scholar could say it's fun,

00:31:31 --> 00:31:36

but it's going to be fun based on what based on each Jihad based on

00:31:36 --> 00:31:41

the the the determination that this is fitness so you determine

00:31:41 --> 00:31:42

its fitness for another woman it might not be fitness.

00:31:44 --> 00:31:44

Okay.

00:31:46 --> 00:31:48

Is it disliked to

00:31:50 --> 00:31:53

fast while traveling? No, not at all. In fact, it's preferable to

00:31:53 --> 00:31:57

fast while traveling went into sumo Cairo. Luckily, Allah says in

00:31:57 --> 00:31:57

the Quran.

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

Right? What's the ruling on niqab in the Hanafi school? Listen, I

00:32:02 --> 00:32:06

answered correctly in the Maliki school and the internet went nuts.

00:32:07 --> 00:32:10

I'm not even going to touch the Hanafi school. Someone else will

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

answer the I O monad. Hashem is here. Ahmed Hashem me Are you

00:32:12 --> 00:32:14

here? Or is that somebody else

00:32:20 --> 00:32:23

is fitna determined by the individual by the community. I

00:32:23 --> 00:32:26

think it's determined by the individual. fitna is different

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

from person to person I believe there are there are some of the

00:32:29 --> 00:32:33

folk who have said any caffeine is a facet because he doesn't believe

00:32:33 --> 00:32:34

that he has to lower his gaze from you.

00:32:36 --> 00:32:39

I don't think I don't see I didn't see my shoe teaching teaching us

00:32:39 --> 00:32:41

that shape and mfine Definitely didn't teach that who we just

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

interviewed on this subject. About a week to three months ago shucks

00:32:47 --> 00:32:51

addict never taught that shikigami never taught that so

00:32:52 --> 00:32:55

what is the ruling while on fasting while sick if it's modeled

00:32:55 --> 00:32:57

studied as severe sickness

00:32:58 --> 00:33:04

okay, if it is a a sickness that is requires medicine and is severe

00:33:04 --> 00:33:08

and you can't just sort of go through it then yes, you you don't

00:33:08 --> 00:33:11

fast you you break your fast

00:33:12 --> 00:33:13

you make up a day

00:33:16 --> 00:33:21

is it true that we cannot pray no fly? If we have come up prayer the

00:33:21 --> 00:33:26

answer is yes. That is true. There is a federal only that

00:33:28 --> 00:33:31

you can pray Tada we and go to the masjid for the sake of the

00:33:31 --> 00:33:36

community benefits only when you finish your cut out for the day.

00:33:37 --> 00:33:40

That's a federal but the ruling is that there's no nephila.

00:33:43 --> 00:33:45

There's no nephila for anybody.

00:33:46 --> 00:33:50

If they have a thing Oh, called up prayers. All right. We're here.

00:33:51 --> 00:33:56

And we're fixed. Let's reintroduce our guest for today. Dr. Hudson

00:33:56 --> 00:33:59

Abdus Salam thank you so much for your patience while we had those.

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

Fix that Mike. Welcome to the Safina society nothing but facts

00:34:04 --> 00:34:05

live stream.

00:34:08 --> 00:34:11

Well, yeah, kawaii Can we sit down Marcela? Let me ask, let me get

00:34:11 --> 00:34:12

straight to this and tell me

00:34:14 --> 00:34:17

tell us what's your base where you're based out of and what's

00:34:17 --> 00:34:22

your political activity look like? So I'm currently based out of

00:34:22 --> 00:34:26

Minneapolis where I'm a professor at the University of Minnesota,

00:34:26 --> 00:34:31

Mashallah. The political work that we're doing is the event in Biden

00:34:31 --> 00:34:35

movement, which we began on November 1, after the president

00:34:35 --> 00:34:39

tasked our ceasefire deadline day and never called for a permanent

00:34:39 --> 00:34:44

ceasefire on October 31. And ever since then, it's been history by

00:34:44 --> 00:34:47

the power and permission of Allah subhanaw taala. And we've been

00:34:47 --> 00:34:51

organizing across the country, particularly in the swing states,

00:34:51 --> 00:34:56

and creating the by again, all for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala

00:34:56 --> 00:34:59

and by His power, trying to create the conditions for all

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

Are Omar here in the United States to respond to the devastation the

00:35:04 --> 00:35:08

policy of death of this administration? What what are you

00:35:08 --> 00:35:12

a professor of? In Minnesota? I'm a professor of strategy human

00:35:12 --> 00:35:15

rights in sociology. Wow. Mashallah.

00:35:16 --> 00:35:22

So tell me something. I agree with the abandoned Biden approach. I

00:35:22 --> 00:35:28

agree that idea that anyone who basically greenlights a genocide

00:35:28 --> 00:35:32

by doing nothing, and then sending aid simultaneously, this new fact

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

doesn't work. And this is the way he believes plays games,

00:35:36 --> 00:35:40

where you do two things simultaneously to please

00:35:40 --> 00:35:44

everybody. It doesn't work like that. I agree with it. I agree

00:35:44 --> 00:35:48

that everybody should be punished. And then you'll deal with the next

00:35:48 --> 00:35:52

consequence later. So Trump is not going to be better, he probably be

00:35:52 --> 00:35:55

worse. But you'll deal with that when you get there. So I agree

00:35:55 --> 00:35:58

with that. But what do you how do you respond to the critics who

00:35:58 --> 00:36:00

say, Trump is going to be worse? Why should we have been to Biden

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

when Trump is worse?

00:36:04 --> 00:36:09

The the former president prevented our family and friends and

00:36:09 --> 00:36:14

colleagues from entering into the country. But Mr. Biden killed

00:36:14 --> 00:36:18

them. Subhan, Allah Subhan Allah, what's truly extraordinary is that

00:36:18 --> 00:36:22

often people think that the political equation or the way that

00:36:22 --> 00:36:26

the media characterizes the choice is between two candidates as if

00:36:26 --> 00:36:30

this is an election about our individual self interest. But the

00:36:30 --> 00:36:34

reality is, it's not a question about what's the alternative with

00:36:34 --> 00:36:39

a with an answer, such as the last name of a political candidate? We

00:36:39 --> 00:36:42

think it abandoned Biden, the question is, what is the

00:36:42 --> 00:36:46

alternative world? Imagine rewarding the president after

00:36:46 --> 00:36:51

killing 1000s of our brothers and sisters. That would mean political

00:36:51 --> 00:36:56

suicide. Most of Americans would would self Immolate and in effect

00:36:56 --> 00:37:00

say that they are completely irrelevant. They came out and

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

protested again and again and again. And then they're rewarded

00:37:05 --> 00:37:10

their own murder. Yeah. So what the way that we think of this is,

00:37:10 --> 00:37:15

it's not really a question between Biden or Trump, it's about whether

00:37:15 --> 00:37:20

we punish Biden, that we will punish Biden, correct. Yeah, I

00:37:20 --> 00:37:25

totally agree. I mean, if you let this slide, you basically proving

00:37:25 --> 00:37:29

that you're completely inept. And that anyone can do what they want

00:37:29 --> 00:37:34

with you. That's so that's, it's an absolute death. Whereas if you

00:37:34 --> 00:37:38

do this, and you and you punish a candidate, and the next one comes

00:37:38 --> 00:37:43

as worse, you actually haven't actually is the lesser of harms,

00:37:43 --> 00:37:47

in a sense, because the first is guaranteed loss, no one will ever

00:37:47 --> 00:37:51

respect you. The second one is now I just will have to face a bigger

00:37:51 --> 00:37:55

challenge now at this point or a bigger enemy. But it's that's not

00:37:55 --> 00:37:58

a guaranteed loss, because it's not guaranteed that he'll be

00:37:58 --> 00:38:01

worse. It's speculated that he'll be worse, but it's not guaranteed

00:38:01 --> 00:38:06

that it will be worse. Right? And even if he is worse, so deal with

00:38:06 --> 00:38:09

it, right? So you have one is guaranteed, and one is

00:38:09 --> 00:38:14

speculative. And you always take the in terms of the negative you

00:38:14 --> 00:38:17

go with what speculatively harmful versus what is guaranteed to be

00:38:17 --> 00:38:18

harmful.

00:38:19 --> 00:38:23

Absolutely a measure that is super thoughtful. One of the things that

00:38:24 --> 00:38:27

a lot of folks don't understand about American politics, and

00:38:27 --> 00:38:33

understandably so is that when constituencies actually affect

00:38:33 --> 00:38:36

change, and demonstrate that they have power, that they're this

00:38:36 --> 00:38:39

swing deist group in the electorate, both parties will

00:38:39 --> 00:38:44

start to move in their direction. So when folks might not understand

00:38:44 --> 00:38:48

is that the first term won't necessarily be a photocopy of the

00:38:48 --> 00:38:53

next term. If we demonstrate that we had the impact that we hope we

00:38:53 --> 00:38:57

will, then the Republicans will also move in our direction, and

00:38:57 --> 00:39:00

the Democrats will experience a reckoning Remember, it's just four

00:39:00 --> 00:39:05

years, the prophets struggled a huge number of events and

00:39:05 --> 00:39:10

suffering again and again, torture, exile, experience of

00:39:10 --> 00:39:17

famine, loss of family members at battle, before he actually we

00:39:17 --> 00:39:21

entered into Mecca. And so for years, under admittedly a

00:39:21 --> 00:39:25

distasteful character is still part of the overall struggle

00:39:25 --> 00:39:30

towards the liberation of this ummah, while I was in Palestine

00:39:30 --> 00:39:34

conducting research in the hole 2022 From February till December

00:39:34 --> 00:39:37

on December 1, there was a national alert for me and my

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

research assistant we were

00:39:40 --> 00:39:44

we were arrested handcuffed, I was arrested handcuffed as I was

00:39:44 --> 00:39:48

entering into a OXA on my hands and legs, stripped naked paraded

00:39:48 --> 00:39:52

through the Old City Central mess, cobija basement, tortured and then

00:39:52 --> 00:39:56

deported after 23 days. I was working with activists, youth

00:39:56 --> 00:39:58

activists, and we had a plan

00:39:59 --> 00:39:59

we

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

called for the Liberation of Palestine. One of the things is

00:40:03 --> 00:40:08

that when I was in a Luxa with the youth, we would often say that

00:40:08 --> 00:40:13

Abdullah is not just the occupation is not only in

00:40:13 --> 00:40:17

Jerusalem, that Jerusalem is a symbol of the occupation of this

00:40:17 --> 00:40:22

ummah. So the way for us to actually affect change Subhanallah

00:40:22 --> 00:40:26

might not be in a country that's populated with Muslims. But coming

00:40:26 --> 00:40:32

from the United States, by actually bringing down deposing

00:40:32 --> 00:40:36

the autoCrat in the White House, perhaps the largest biggest

00:40:36 --> 00:40:41

Zionist in history, the top a superpower, it would represent one

00:40:41 --> 00:40:45

of the greatest victories in this OMA has been weak and needs so

00:40:45 --> 00:40:51

badly a victory. And so we're, we believe that on November 1, Fifth,

00:40:51 --> 00:40:56

we might have an opportunity there for the OMA to celebrate across

00:40:56 --> 00:41:00

the planet. And for us to finally rupture the first significant

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

rupture between the United States and Israel that you're referring

00:41:03 --> 00:41:06

to the constant billions of dollars for a very small

00:41:06 --> 00:41:11

population, that they arm them to the teeth, and then attack folks

00:41:11 --> 00:41:15

who are within a walled community that have no place to go and then

00:41:15 --> 00:41:21

declare this security. Nothing but genocide and terror. A question

00:41:21 --> 00:41:28

for you now, how does how do we know that the loss is coming from

00:41:28 --> 00:41:29

the Muslim vote?

00:41:31 --> 00:41:35

Well, at abandoned Biden, in particular, in October, when we

00:41:35 --> 00:41:39

began the presentations, a lot of folks would often ask the

00:41:39 --> 00:41:43

question, can you show us that the margin that will be made up

00:41:43 --> 00:41:45

between the two candidates will come from Muslim Americans, and we

00:41:45 --> 00:41:50

find in a preliminary study that 111 electoral votes, Minnesota,

00:41:50 --> 00:41:55

Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Florida, and

00:41:55 --> 00:41:58

Nevada, North Carolina are also added that make it nine. But those

00:41:58 --> 00:42:03

seven initial states I listed are places where Muslim Americans we

00:42:03 --> 00:42:07

believe can make the difference if they come out. But I often tell

00:42:07 --> 00:42:12

folks, why are we thinking small, this is not this is a movement.

00:42:12 --> 00:42:15

And within it, there's an election, we have to talk to our

00:42:15 --> 00:42:19

fellow Americans, in the same way in the best tradition of Dawa of

00:42:19 --> 00:42:24

our beloved prophet, or the South Sudan, who spoke to everybody, and

00:42:24 --> 00:42:28

including getting allies who never converted to Islam, as we know, is

00:42:28 --> 00:42:33

Uncle being perhaps the exemplar of that dollar. And so we feel

00:42:33 --> 00:42:38

fundamentally, we need to reach out to Gen Z to African Americans,

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

to Latinos, if you appeal small percentages, you're way beyond the

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

margin that Biden won those swing states. We believe that we have to

00:42:47 --> 00:42:50

come together. And we're asking for volunteers and for us to talk

00:42:50 --> 00:42:54

to our fellow Americans. It's an opportunity for us to be enmeshed

00:42:54 --> 00:42:58

in this country for us to transform not just the political

00:42:58 --> 00:43:05

apparatus, but American culture itself. No. When people see one

00:43:05 --> 00:43:09

commentator saying very colorfully here, you don't cut your nose to

00:43:09 --> 00:43:15

split your face, again, in defense of keeping Biden as opposed to

00:43:15 --> 00:43:19

going with Trump. But the thing is that as as wacky as Trump may

00:43:19 --> 00:43:20

seem,

00:43:22 --> 00:43:25

there's no guarantee that there's going to be a war during his time,

00:43:25 --> 00:43:30

because there wasn't war in the first four years. Right. So it's

00:43:30 --> 00:43:32

really a quest. It's not a guarantee. It's not like he did it

00:43:32 --> 00:43:35

before. It's not like we're saying Bush versus Biden,

00:43:36 --> 00:43:41

like George HW Bush, the second, like we know what his record is,

00:43:41 --> 00:43:46

with Iraq, with Iraq and Afghanistan. Okay, that would be

00:43:46 --> 00:43:50

fair to say that wait a second, hold on which one is worse? Right.

00:43:50 --> 00:43:54

But in the case of Trump, yet, the whole scene around him

00:43:56 --> 00:44:02

is one thing, but there is no war record with him. So that's why I

00:44:02 --> 00:44:06

think it's, it is fair to say that, to not punish Biden

00:44:07 --> 00:44:11

is an absolute harm. Like, you know, for sure at this point, you

00:44:11 --> 00:44:13

are, you've declared your impotence.

00:44:16 --> 00:44:19

Trump coming in, it's not a guarantee that there's going to be

00:44:19 --> 00:44:23

a war. It's not like it's it was HW Bush, who gave us precedent of

00:44:23 --> 00:44:24

two wars.

00:44:25 --> 00:44:30

So I'm thinking now though, the the people who the abandoned Biden

00:44:30 --> 00:44:35

folk, I'm trying to think of when Muslims put in bush over Clinton,

00:44:36 --> 00:44:41

and they said, Clinton, yeah, he did have some bombings. And he

00:44:42 --> 00:44:46

knew he wasn't moral. Bush at least has family values. And then

00:44:46 --> 00:44:50

Bush came in and it was a biggest as, you know, political mistake to

00:44:50 --> 00:44:54

put Bhushan and those people have no answer. Like they just the

00:44:54 --> 00:44:56

people who supported Bush, they just have no answer. They said we

00:44:56 --> 00:44:59

screwed up. So Let's hypothetically now

00:45:00 --> 00:45:03

I'll draw out a couple scenarios. Let's draw out the scenario that

00:45:03 --> 00:45:04

Trump comes in.

00:45:05 --> 00:45:09

I personally believe he would have won anyway. Right? But he's

00:45:09 --> 00:45:12

probably going to be is probably going to be bigger now with the

00:45:12 --> 00:45:15

abandoned Biden campaign. Right? bigger margin. But Let's

00:45:15 --> 00:45:20

hypothetically say Trump comes in and he's really bad things happen.

00:45:20 --> 00:45:22

Then people will turn

00:45:23 --> 00:45:26

on advocates such as, what's his name?

00:45:28 --> 00:45:33

The guests that we just had from England, wasn't it? I can't

00:45:33 --> 00:45:36

remember. But he's very big on the abandoned Biden campaign, rather

00:45:36 --> 00:45:40

semi handy semi Hamdi? Yep. Then they're going to turn on yourself.

00:45:41 --> 00:45:43

They're going to turn on everybody who was part of the band and bind

00:45:43 --> 00:45:47

it. Are you do you have, you know, what are you ready to say to them?

00:45:48 --> 00:45:53

By the way, our goal is to get the backlash, we want to unelect Biden

00:45:53 --> 00:45:57

and take the blame. By taking the blame, we would send a signal to

00:45:57 --> 00:46:01

the political landscape that we affected the change. Right.

00:46:01 --> 00:46:04

Interesting. Right. Interesting. It's taking the blame, you're

00:46:04 --> 00:46:10

actually also taking credit for having some effects. Right. So

00:46:10 --> 00:46:13

yeah, that's, that's a great, that's a very good way to put it

00:46:13 --> 00:46:18

continue. Absolutely. And so we we are looking forward to

00:46:18 --> 00:46:22

experiencing that backlash that we know will result in a

00:46:22 --> 00:46:26

transformation in the Democratic Party in four years where they're

00:46:26 --> 00:46:31

going to publish having a red line to ever have foreign policies like

00:46:31 --> 00:46:36

the one we see witnessed here before. And so we feel really

00:46:36 --> 00:46:40

strongly that we have to have this moment of transformation. By the

00:46:40 --> 00:46:45

way, a strict strategist will come before Mr. Trump in the Oval

00:46:45 --> 00:46:49

Office, and they'll say quite clearly to him, don't antagonize

00:46:49 --> 00:46:53

the Muslims. They illustrated their power, you want them to run

00:46:53 --> 00:46:57

back into the arms of the Democratic Party. And so we're

00:46:57 --> 00:47:01

gonna see recalculations. That's how politics works in America. And

00:47:01 --> 00:47:06

so this is what I mean by it's not necessarily a photocopy. Yeah, we

00:47:06 --> 00:47:09

we want to take credit. And by the way, you mentioned that you think

00:47:09 --> 00:47:15

that Mr. Trump will likely win. And Allah Allah subhanaw taala on

00:47:15 --> 00:47:19

him. He is the most knowledgeable. The recent polling that I see

00:47:19 --> 00:47:25

suggests that it will be very close already as this. Yes. We see

00:47:25 --> 00:47:29

we see in some polling, Mr. Trump is ahead. And some polling, Mr.

00:47:29 --> 00:47:33

Biden is that some practice is to take the aggregate polling, which

00:47:34 --> 00:47:38

is in a recent, recent calculation, I think Mr. Trump was

00:47:38 --> 00:47:42

like point five percentage points ahead. Which by the way, why is

00:47:42 --> 00:47:46

that you can have various outcomes when you look at the specific

00:47:46 --> 00:47:49

swing states, because remember, popular vote is not what

00:47:49 --> 00:47:54

determines the outcome. It's the electoral college. What is the

00:47:54 --> 00:47:55

tell us about?

00:47:57 --> 00:47:58

Were you involved in the Michigan

00:47:59 --> 00:48:03

name? Tell us about that whole story? Yeah. So our people

00:48:03 --> 00:48:06

abandoned Biden, leaders in Michigan in the Michigan chapter,

00:48:06 --> 00:48:11

were actively involved in pursuing the uncommitted, and we had folks

00:48:11 --> 00:48:16

volunteer, we had folks phonebank. And it demonstrated that the

00:48:16 --> 00:48:21

theory we operated since October was accurate, that we can show we

00:48:21 --> 00:48:26

had numbers by the way, including non Muslim Americans, who came out

00:48:26 --> 00:48:30

in droves to show this president in the elections, which often

00:48:30 --> 00:48:34

don't bring people out in the primary is specific specifically

00:48:34 --> 00:48:37

with an incumbent president. And we've showed that we had the

00:48:37 --> 00:48:42

numbers to effectively make Michigan swing away from the

00:48:42 --> 00:48:46

president in the general. So we this is why you're seeing in

00:48:46 --> 00:48:50

recent reporting that Mr. Biden is shouting is angry, his strategists

00:48:50 --> 00:48:53

are telling him he's likely going to lose Michigan and Georgia. When

00:48:53 --> 00:48:57

I look at our map, and our strategy, we feel that we can make

00:48:57 --> 00:49:01

sure that Mr. Biden loses nine states 133 electoral votes, and he

00:49:01 --> 00:49:09

won over Trump with 74 electoral votes in 2020. So and each state

00:49:09 --> 00:49:14

that he loses, adds to the power of Muslim Americans into the

00:49:14 --> 00:49:20

future. What's the number one Muslim swing state in America? The

00:49:20 --> 00:49:23

number one Muslim swing state in America is likely Wisconsin,

00:49:23 --> 00:49:27

really, but a lot of folks don't know the media is focusing on

00:49:27 --> 00:49:33

Michigan because its population. But Wisconsin is expected to be so

00:49:33 --> 00:49:38

swingy that it's possible that 100 People 1000 People

00:49:39 --> 00:49:43

15 15,000 People will determine the outcome and there are far more

00:49:43 --> 00:49:49

Muslim Americans than that, then that margin so and yeah, a lot of

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

the media isn't aware.

00:49:51 --> 00:49:55

They were surprised. They often mentioned Michigan and I told, you

00:49:55 --> 00:49:59

know, I tell journalists, that actually we can still win this

00:49:59 --> 00:49:59

meaning by

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

And we'll lose even if you won Michigan

00:50:03 --> 00:50:06

by locking him out in states like Nevada, Arizona, Georgia and

00:50:06 --> 00:50:11

Florida where we have our leaders actively organizing day and night

00:50:11 --> 00:50:15

to make sure that we protect our money. But like you said, I love

00:50:15 --> 00:50:19

that your brother I mean, you're apologizing that I was here

00:50:19 --> 00:50:24

waiting but just listening to your wise words is typical. Mashallah,

00:50:24 --> 00:50:29

this is one of those moments where Muslim Americans might be the most

00:50:29 --> 00:50:32

powerful Muslims on the planet, and they must respond.

00:50:33 --> 00:50:39

Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Georgia. These are

00:50:39 --> 00:50:43

parts of the body of the Ummah, that the prophets of Allah sunnah

00:50:43 --> 00:50:47

mentioned in this hadith, and that we must be feeling excruciating

00:50:47 --> 00:50:52

pain in all of these locations in America, and that we must respond

00:50:52 --> 00:50:56

and take this responsibility seriously, to make sure that our

00:50:56 --> 00:51:00

Ummah is protected and to signal not just for Palestine, because

00:51:00 --> 00:51:03

once you demonstrate you have power, it won't only be for

00:51:03 --> 00:51:07

Palestine. But it would be an extraordinary moment for the

00:51:07 --> 00:51:11

entire Ummah, to show Muslim Americans imagine the headline

00:51:11 --> 00:51:18

that Muslim Americans delivered America away from a presser. And

00:51:18 --> 00:51:23

so it will have ripple effects across the world. And it will

00:51:23 --> 00:51:29

demonstrate finally, that when we organize, and we've we asked Allah

00:51:29 --> 00:51:35

subhanaw taala for support, that we will protect our Ummah, that we

00:51:35 --> 00:51:39

truly believe that we are a single body, and that the harm in

00:51:39 --> 00:51:44

Palestine is felt every day by each and every one of us. Let me

00:51:44 --> 00:51:46

ask you another question. Again.

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

From the opposite side, we're playing chess here, right? Someone

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

says to you, Biden is not guilty. He couldn't have stopped Israel.

00:51:55 --> 00:51:59

Anyway. Israel is a runaway train, it's out of control. Nobody can

00:51:59 --> 00:52:01

stop them. True or False?

00:52:02 --> 00:52:08

False. When I was in prison, the Americans knew that everything

00:52:08 --> 00:52:11

that was happening, and they allowed it my tortures,

00:52:11 --> 00:52:15

interrogators said, they're allowing this to happen. The

00:52:15 --> 00:52:20

United States presents itself as a weak party, only with Israel. But

00:52:20 --> 00:52:24

then we'll fully well, there politicking into Ukraine and other

00:52:24 --> 00:52:28

parts of the world in which they definitely flex their muscles. The

00:52:28 --> 00:52:33

United States is the reason for the oppression by Israel since

00:52:33 --> 00:52:40

1948 14. Presidents seven Democrats and seven Republicans,

00:52:40 --> 00:52:44

each equally contributing and sustaining these attacks. No

00:52:44 --> 00:52:47

question that if Mr. Biden threatened

00:52:48 --> 00:52:53

Mr. Netanyahu and told him that you will no longer get funding and

00:52:53 --> 00:52:55

that you will not have the support of the administration, you will

00:52:55 --> 00:52:58

have no choice but to back off.

00:52:59 --> 00:53:04

Okay, so you actually, now that your torturers told you, America's

00:53:04 --> 00:53:05

allowing this,

00:53:06 --> 00:53:07

okay.

00:53:09 --> 00:53:14

But a torturous? Yes. So they could be lying. And that's part of

00:53:14 --> 00:53:18

the torture. Absolutely, except for the fact that I learned that

00:53:18 --> 00:53:23

and then confirm this after I arrived, that they basically

00:53:23 --> 00:53:28

allowed it to take place. And they stood back and asked very

00:53:28 --> 00:53:33

disturbing questions about me, to my research assistant. We've been

00:53:33 --> 00:53:39

questioned by the FBI after we arrived. And effectively, this is

00:53:39 --> 00:53:44

an administration that is two faced, they currently realize that

00:53:44 --> 00:53:50

Muslim Americans are increasingly powerful. And so they have

00:53:50 --> 00:53:54

specific discourses directed domestically to Muslim Americans,

00:53:54 --> 00:53:58

like wonderful Ramadan mubarak. Yeah, well, that's

00:53:59 --> 00:54:03

great, have a great eat. But on the other hand, in when it comes

00:54:03 --> 00:54:07

to Israel, there provide them complete carte blanche to do the

00:54:07 --> 00:54:10

attacks that they that they wish and the whole, the whole thing of

00:54:10 --> 00:54:14

the administration is not that they're going to actually stop the

00:54:14 --> 00:54:19

attacks in over our heads that the hope is that Muslim Americans will

00:54:19 --> 00:54:23

look out for their own self interest, that they will not bear

00:54:23 --> 00:54:28

the thought of being insulted by the former president. And so

00:54:28 --> 00:54:35

that's their goal is to sort of focus on that and make us fearful

00:54:35 --> 00:54:38

about the next four years. And this is something that I also kind

00:54:38 --> 00:54:42

of want to mention to my fellow Muslim Americans, you know,

00:54:42 --> 00:54:47

please, volunteer, join the movement, and donate. This is so

00:54:47 --> 00:54:50

critical for us to demonstrate that we're a powerful community at

00:54:50 --> 00:54:55

at abandoned Biden 20 four.com. But one thing that is really

00:54:55 --> 00:54:59

critical is for us at the end, even if we would not

00:55:00 --> 00:55:05

gain a single drop of power, we must sacrifice for years under

00:55:05 --> 00:55:12

Trump. We is nothing like a single day in the USA. And we must

00:55:12 --> 00:55:15

experience what the Prophet sallallaahu Salam said, which is

00:55:15 --> 00:55:18

to feel the pain of our brothers and sisters, we should not be able

00:55:18 --> 00:55:22

to sleep, we should not be able to endure the images that we're

00:55:22 --> 00:55:27

seeing. And so the pleasure of agenesis a dare to be deposed by

00:55:27 --> 00:55:32

by our own hands should be sufficient to motivate us day and

00:55:32 --> 00:55:36

night, regardless of the outcome of what comes and we ask Allah

00:55:36 --> 00:55:40

subhanaw taala to see our sacrifice, and then reward us and

00:55:40 --> 00:55:45

protect us never dealt what Allah subhanaw taala has that for when

00:55:45 --> 00:55:51

the time will come with it the gel were not is really Jana and Jana

00:55:51 --> 00:55:57

is not where where Hellfire is truly paradise and Paradise is

00:55:57 --> 00:56:03

hellfire. And perhaps Biden, that what is what appears to be lovely

00:56:03 --> 00:56:07

is truly what's harmful. And Trump the alternative who I'm not we're

00:56:07 --> 00:56:11

never suggesting anyone should vote for appears to be evil, which

00:56:11 --> 00:56:16

he is on its face. But good things may happen for the OMA as a result

00:56:16 --> 00:56:20

despite him coming in. And again, I really emphasize we do not

00:56:20 --> 00:56:25

recommend voting for a such a distasteful candidate. But as as

00:56:25 --> 00:56:29

Dr. And Muslim mentioned, the obviously in a two party system,

00:56:29 --> 00:56:34

the likelihood is that he would win if Biden lost. Okay, let me

00:56:34 --> 00:56:41

ask you this. When do Biden abandoned Biden campaign? What is

00:56:41 --> 00:56:44

it exactly? Is it just a series of getting awareness?

00:56:46 --> 00:56:49

Are you telling people to vote in a certain way to not vote at all?

00:56:50 --> 00:56:53

What what is the movement? Exactly? Physically speaking,

00:56:53 --> 00:56:57

like, what do we do? Yeah, so it's a movement in which we're calling

00:56:57 --> 00:56:59

on people, which includes that element you talked about, for

00:56:59 --> 00:57:05

folks to be aware about this grave immorality that's being committed

00:57:05 --> 00:57:09

by our administration that we voted in droves, for in 2020. But

00:57:09 --> 00:57:13

part of that movement is to act change. And so within that

00:57:13 --> 00:57:16

movement is an election, which is part of our broader toolbox. It's

00:57:16 --> 00:57:20

just one piece of it. So we're organizing an election campaign

00:57:20 --> 00:57:24

without a candidate, in effect, trying to ensure that we punish

00:57:24 --> 00:57:27

Biden, for it to be a historic moment in American politics and

00:57:27 --> 00:57:31

bring civil rights into foreign policy to ensure that we don't get

00:57:31 --> 00:57:36

Medicare and security. And we get when we forgive that

00:57:37 --> 00:57:41

why we shut blood across the planet. And so what we're asking

00:57:41 --> 00:57:44

folks to do is to join the campaign to get out the vote, to

00:57:44 --> 00:57:47

have a to tell our fellow Americans who are Muslim and non

00:57:47 --> 00:57:51

Muslim to join the campaign, and never vote against your

00:57:51 --> 00:57:55

conscience. And so this is precisely what we're asking folks

00:57:55 --> 00:57:59

to do. And if you go to our website, it will funnel you into

00:57:59 --> 00:58:03

the into the movement where we would recruit you as a potential

00:58:03 --> 00:58:08

volunteer, as well as we really would appreciate your generosity,

00:58:08 --> 00:58:11

because campaigns take a lot of money, just the President has

00:58:11 --> 00:58:15

seen, this is such a major problem for him. So he announced a $30

00:58:15 --> 00:58:20

million ad campaign to target Gen Z to compensate for the losses

00:58:20 --> 00:58:24

among our community. I want to share with you a strategy of

00:58:24 --> 00:58:28

minorities, fringe minorities, like Muslims, this is a political

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

idea. No.

00:58:30 --> 00:58:36

They're too fringe, and maybe even too controversial, for anybody to

00:58:36 --> 00:58:42

go to bat for them. However, they're large enough in number to

00:58:42 --> 00:58:44

be able to destroy a candidate.

00:58:46 --> 00:58:50

And that that is the strategy of this the way we are right now.

00:58:51 --> 00:58:55

That's the strategy of Muslims. I found that to be wonderful. Do you

00:58:55 --> 00:59:00

agree with that strategy? 100%. It's exactly what the strategy

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

we're operating with. We don't take the assumption that we need

00:59:04 --> 00:59:08

to do this in an insular way, that it's an opportunity to transform

00:59:08 --> 00:59:13

our culture and to bring a fellow Americans from various minority

00:59:13 --> 00:59:18

groups, African Americans, Latinos, we progressives, Gen Z of

00:59:18 --> 00:59:21

progressives who are very disturbed by what they're seeing,

00:59:21 --> 00:59:24

we have a strategy in Nevada, that includes Muslim Americans in Gen

00:59:24 --> 00:59:27

Z, we have a strategy in Pennsylvania that includes Muslim

00:59:27 --> 00:59:30

Americans and African Americans. And so in the same with Georgia,

00:59:30 --> 00:59:34

and North Carolina, African Americans play a major role in

00:59:34 --> 00:59:39

Arizona, with Latinos. And we feel it's an opportunity for people to

00:59:39 --> 00:59:43

learn about how in our tradition, we believe that if you kill one

00:59:43 --> 00:59:47

soul, it's as though you killed all people. And when you save one

00:59:47 --> 00:59:52

soul, it's as though you saved all people, all people, not just

00:59:52 --> 00:59:57

Muslims, all people, and this is a message to all Americans. We ask

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

you, bye bye

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

But in truth and in and with great humility to join us in a campaign

01:00:05 --> 01:00:09

to make sure that no political candidate in the future will

01:00:09 --> 01:00:14

violate what truly goes against American conscience. There was a

01:00:14 --> 01:00:17

Martin Luther King, who called for civil rights and voting rights

01:00:17 --> 01:00:21

that many people, harrow wise little folks don't know that

01:00:21 --> 01:00:24

Martin Luther King spoke against the Vietnam War, and broad

01:00:24 --> 01:00:28

international abroad intervention by the United States abroad. So

01:00:28 --> 01:00:32

the ban and Biden were also guided by those voices, voices like

01:00:32 --> 01:00:35

Martin Luther King, who called on us to bring civil rights into

01:00:35 --> 01:00:38

foreign policy. So we asked her brothers and sisters among the

01:00:38 --> 01:00:42

African American community, among Latinos, among progressives, and

01:00:42 --> 01:00:47

Gen Z, please don't lose this moment. Because if Mr. Biden comes

01:00:47 --> 01:00:48

back into office,

01:00:50 --> 01:00:54

that's the red carpet being rolled out for perpetual death and

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

destruction in communities worldwide in Latin America, in the

01:00:58 --> 01:01:03

African continent, and in Far East Asia. We can't allow that. Tell me

01:01:03 --> 01:01:08

what about people who live in affirmed blue or red states? How

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

can they participate. And for those in England who don't know

01:01:11 --> 01:01:16

what we're talking about, the blue state is a state that every four

01:01:16 --> 01:01:18

years it goes to the Democrats,

01:01:19 --> 01:01:23

enough democratic people in there, they vote for the Democrat, red

01:01:23 --> 01:01:26

state, for the Republican, New Jersey, for example, and

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

California are blue states, Texas is a red state, for example. And

01:01:31 --> 01:01:34

then purple states are what we call the swing states, that could

01:01:34 --> 01:01:39

go either way. And now Muslims have enough numbers to actually

01:01:39 --> 01:01:42

damage a candidate, no one is going to go to bat for us. But we

01:01:42 --> 01:01:47

can damage a candidate. Right and take maybe 4% from them, or 3%, of

01:01:47 --> 01:01:52

very important number, you know, that could eventually 3% Here 4%,

01:01:52 --> 01:01:57

there another 5%, there could tip the balance for this candidate. So

01:01:57 --> 01:02:00

tell us what does someone do from from a red or a blue state? Yeah.

01:02:00 --> 01:02:05

And so we do have a 50 state strategy that we announced in late

01:02:05 --> 01:02:11

December of 2023. And it involves having folks come in and volunteer

01:02:11 --> 01:02:15

actively and abandoned by it. And we have operations where we work

01:02:15 --> 01:02:19

to connect with media to put out the word about abandoned Biden, we

01:02:19 --> 01:02:23

need folks to do work in data. We need campaigners, connectors,

01:02:23 --> 01:02:27

organizers, we need folks to create fundraisers. And one thing

01:02:27 --> 01:02:31

is you mentioned to our Ummah abroad, including our own minds,

01:02:31 --> 01:02:36

the Western world, that in many of these so called red and blue

01:02:36 --> 01:02:39

states, there are huge Muslim populations, California, New York,

01:02:39 --> 01:02:45

New Jersey, Illinois, Texas. And so we need those folks and their

01:02:45 --> 01:02:49

energy. And they can play a major role. We have folks from all

01:02:49 --> 01:02:53

across the country, working in operations in media and social

01:02:53 --> 01:02:57

media, putting out the words throughout the country also

01:02:57 --> 01:03:02

brought a doctor and mastery was emphasizing the campaign. But we

01:03:02 --> 01:03:05

feel that the campaign is one element of the movement. We want a

01:03:05 --> 01:03:08

national movement like Black Lives Matter

01:03:09 --> 01:03:13

and the dreamers on trying to protect the rights of undocumented

01:03:13 --> 01:03:18

people. So to do so we need to actively engage Americans across

01:03:18 --> 01:03:22

the nation, from coast to coast for them to understand that what

01:03:22 --> 01:03:26

the stakes are, and for all of us to change, not just merely in the

01:03:26 --> 01:03:29

swing states to have a change of mind about American foreign

01:03:29 --> 01:03:33

policy, and its perception that it could project power with with

01:03:33 --> 01:03:37

impunity. And without any reflection. It comes in like a

01:03:37 --> 01:03:41

giant and destroys people's lives and their futures. And that's

01:03:41 --> 01:03:45

something that many Americans once they know that it's happening, we

01:03:45 --> 01:03:49

will be completely averse to. And so a movement involves all of us

01:03:50 --> 01:03:53

across the nation. And so we ask everyone Muslim and non Muslim to

01:03:53 --> 01:03:55

actively be part of abandoned by

01:03:56 --> 01:03:59

Omar, can you open the website up? Let's show everyone what the

01:03:59 --> 01:04:04

website looks like abandoned Biden 24 dot O R G er.com?

01:04:05 --> 01:04:11

Did you get both.con.com abandoned Biden too? Can you tell while he's

01:04:11 --> 01:04:14

pulling that up? Can you tell us who are the main personalities in

01:04:14 --> 01:04:15

this

01:04:16 --> 01:04:20

in this movement? Yeah, so we have lots of folks in the movement. We

01:04:20 --> 01:04:24

have assigned co chairs in all the state chapters, which are focused

01:04:24 --> 01:04:28

in the swing states, but we have folk folk people working in

01:04:28 --> 01:04:32

operations people working on data and research hundreds of people

01:04:32 --> 01:04:38

right now, and everyone obviously plays a major role. In theory I co

01:04:38 --> 01:04:42

founded but that's too precious for us to speak I worked with a

01:04:42 --> 01:04:47

brother, Jelani Hussein, who works in his personal capacity, but has

01:04:47 --> 01:04:49

been an active member of the community and Muslim community in

01:04:49 --> 01:04:54

Minnesota, as we began in October, but this is not really about

01:04:54 --> 01:04:58

persons. It's truly about bringing everyone together because at the

01:04:58 --> 01:05:00

end you can never make

01:05:00 --> 01:05:04

An impact without bringing in hundreds 1000s Millions of people,

01:05:04 --> 01:05:07

and lots of people have contributed immensely to this

01:05:07 --> 01:05:13

SubhanAllah. But yeah, it's it's one of those movements we hope in

01:05:13 --> 01:05:17

which people can contribute actively from all different walks

01:05:17 --> 01:05:21

of life, and that each person is important a gym, that's

01:05:21 --> 01:05:24

transformational in terms of reaching our impact, if you can

01:05:24 --> 01:05:26

change the vote of one person,

01:05:28 --> 01:05:33

then you truly, you truly made a massive impact. You are like the

01:05:33 --> 01:05:37

founders, you are like the co chairs, you are like the leaders

01:05:37 --> 01:05:41

and operations. And this and I can't emphasize that enough, just

01:05:41 --> 01:05:47

like the prophets was unsaid about if you just speak into a message

01:05:47 --> 01:05:52

of a single Aya to Bella, or to message a single a or single sign

01:05:52 --> 01:05:56

or a single word. And that's our duty to transform people by

01:05:56 --> 01:06:01

communicating our message and changing votes. We have the power

01:06:01 --> 01:06:05

of the pen. And we also know about the power of the sword. But some

01:06:05 --> 01:06:09

folks don't realize there's the power of the vote. ballot or the

01:06:09 --> 01:06:10

bullet.

01:06:13 --> 01:06:16

Yeah, exactly. Sound that's what that's that's what is

01:06:18 --> 01:06:24

that our world today is the vote and the vote is essentially, the

01:06:24 --> 01:06:29

day that it comes where it said that being to pro Israel is not

01:06:29 --> 01:06:35

good for your campaign. That's you've said that that's it. That

01:06:35 --> 01:06:39

is literally it. And that and then it's going to start with, you

01:06:39 --> 01:06:43

know, this is a big one. This is the presidency. Right. But it

01:06:43 --> 01:06:47

could also start now with with Congressman, it could start now

01:06:47 --> 01:06:47

with

01:06:49 --> 01:06:54

with senators, right, and so on and so forth, until being you

01:06:54 --> 01:06:57

know, pro pro Palestine, it's not going to be

01:06:58 --> 01:07:03

viable. And now for that, let me ask you this question. Is that

01:07:03 --> 01:07:04

going to be solely

01:07:05 --> 01:07:06

in the Democratic Party?

01:07:08 --> 01:07:11

No, I don't believe that's going to be the case. Because what

01:07:11 --> 01:07:14

happens when you're the swing deist group is that you become the

01:07:14 --> 01:07:18

kingmaker, and both parties begin to seek support from those from

01:07:18 --> 01:07:23

that community. Plus, we would show the word is we show were a

01:07:23 --> 01:07:27

credible threat, not just merely because of our numbers, but

01:07:27 --> 01:07:31

because we managed to transform the electorate. But we are so

01:07:31 --> 01:07:34

influential that we change people's minds. And those people,

01:07:34 --> 01:07:38

each person in the electorate, is someone you want to covet for your

01:07:38 --> 01:07:42

party. So the Republicans and Democrats would move in our

01:07:42 --> 01:07:45

direction, yes, the Democrats would have a reckoning. But

01:07:46 --> 01:07:49

everyone will fully understand that we have a red line, a new red

01:07:49 --> 01:07:52

line in American politics. As you know, the red line with

01:07:52 --> 01:07:55

evangelicalism that has transformed the Republican Party

01:07:55 --> 01:07:58

with abortion. It was in 1980, when Ronald Reagan won a

01:07:58 --> 01:08:02

landslide, with evangelicals in response to Roe v. Wade, the legal

01:08:02 --> 01:08:07

case for folks to know, that allowed for abortion in the 1970s.

01:08:07 --> 01:08:11

And when Ronald Reagan came, he sat in peace, a revolution that

01:08:11 --> 01:08:17

led many years later, four decades later, to the basically the

01:08:17 --> 01:08:21

overruling of Roe v. Wade, that case that enabled abortion to be

01:08:21 --> 01:08:26

practiced across the nation. And so we would introduce a new Red

01:08:26 --> 01:08:30

Line evangelists have a red line, you can never ever negotiate with

01:08:30 --> 01:08:34

them, if you're a party that allows for abortion. And so we

01:08:34 --> 01:08:37

would have a red line. And then we would go through a phase of

01:08:37 --> 01:08:40

negotiation with these parties. And what's curious about our

01:08:40 --> 01:08:43

position, unlike evangelists, because that find their place

01:08:43 --> 01:08:47

singly in the Republican Party, is that our red line with the

01:08:47 --> 01:08:50

Democratic Party is one in which they would have to respond,

01:08:50 --> 01:08:55

because they need our numbers. In order to win with the Republican

01:08:55 --> 01:08:57

Party, they're going to be intrigued because of the

01:08:57 --> 01:09:00

polarization because of the fact that they realize they won because

01:09:00 --> 01:09:04

of us. They have no choice, but then to rethink about their

01:09:04 --> 01:09:08

policies. With respect to Muslims. It's extremely easy for the

01:09:08 --> 01:09:12

Republican Party, for example, to get rid of travel bans. There's

01:09:12 --> 01:09:17

last there for example. Yeah, so there's real opportunities. What

01:09:17 --> 01:09:22

about the the very hard ideological stance that the

01:09:22 --> 01:09:25

Republicans have on this subject?

01:09:26 --> 01:09:27

To the point that

01:09:29 --> 01:09:34

yeah, on Israel? Yeah. And but I feel when I look at history, as I

01:09:34 --> 01:09:37

mentioned, seven Republicans and seven Democrats have panel up to

01:09:37 --> 01:09:44

this point, both parties are actively Zionist, in a manner that

01:09:44 --> 01:09:50

is, one can say is equal to a certain extent, and so there isn't

01:09:50 --> 01:09:53

really much difference. The reality is that when you punish

01:09:53 --> 01:09:56

Biden and we can even say no hard feelings, it's not even personal.

01:09:56 --> 01:09:59

It just happens that you're in the White House. And now we managed to

01:09:59 --> 01:09:59

mobilize

01:10:00 --> 01:10:02

And so we're gonna take this opportunity to mobilize in the

01:10:02 --> 01:10:06

name of your attacks on Palestine to send a clear signal and punish

01:10:06 --> 01:10:10

you. But the reality is put any name including the 13. Last

01:10:10 --> 01:10:14

president since 1948, what we will be doing is using him as a symbol

01:10:14 --> 01:10:19

to the entire landscape. And so yeah, why breaking and deposing

01:10:19 --> 01:10:23

Biden, we will be breaking and rupturing the Zionist link between

01:10:23 --> 01:10:27

the United States and Israel. And we will begin the transformation

01:10:27 --> 01:10:30

for both parties. You're absolutely right. We're really not

01:10:30 --> 01:10:34

in a fight nearly with Biden. He's just a placeholder for a fight

01:10:35 --> 01:10:39

with the entire political apparatus that signs and is bought

01:10:39 --> 01:10:42

by AIPAC. Let's talk about

01:10:44 --> 01:10:48

congressmen or senators, or after Biden, who's next that you're

01:10:48 --> 01:10:54

gonna go after what we're focusing on Biden, we know that other folks

01:10:54 --> 01:10:58

have created 501 C fours, and in great humbleness, we feel that we

01:10:58 --> 01:11:02

want to just manage bite sized already the presidency is huge.

01:11:02 --> 01:11:06

And we know our capacity, we want to do it right, we have a

01:11:06 --> 01:11:10

responsibility to the ummah. And so we acknowledge that we can't do

01:11:10 --> 01:11:14

everything in seven months, brothers and sisters, the election

01:11:14 --> 01:11:19

is in a few seconds from now. So the reality is that we know that

01:11:19 --> 01:11:22

we're working with other people, we're not in competition with them

01:11:22 --> 01:11:25

that are working on Congress. We love our brothers and sisters

01:11:25 --> 01:11:28

doing that we want to give them every support. But we're focusing

01:11:28 --> 01:11:31

on the presidency and the ideas that the organization that's

01:11:31 --> 01:11:34

launching abandoned Biden and coordinating it will focus into

01:11:34 --> 01:11:38

the future on the presidency, like the struggle will experience under

01:11:38 --> 01:11:41

Trump, making sure that he's punished

01:11:42 --> 01:11:47

and so on, until we course correct this country's evil and move

01:11:47 --> 01:11:53

towards a hope and morality to be established throughout the world.

01:11:53 --> 01:11:58

Remember, ending facade and fashion and corruption across this

01:11:58 --> 01:12:00

planet is part of our deen.

01:12:01 --> 01:12:03

So let's talk now about

01:12:05 --> 01:12:09

we talked about after Biden. And I think this take tearing taking

01:12:09 --> 01:12:12

down one candidate after another is going to be the mode of

01:12:12 --> 01:12:16

operation going forward. But I have to say I was surprised that

01:12:16 --> 01:12:20

Wisconsin is a swing state, like what is the percentage of Muslims

01:12:20 --> 01:12:26

there? Or is abandoned Biden reaching outside of Muslims? It's

01:12:26 --> 01:12:30

not just the Muslim vote. Yeah, we're reaching our intention, like

01:12:30 --> 01:12:32

you mentioned very clearly,

01:12:34 --> 01:12:38

that we're definitely reaching and it's it's critical as being a

01:12:38 --> 01:12:41

movement to reach out to many different other constituencies

01:12:41 --> 01:12:46

mashallah clearly dedicated to the idea that life must be protected,

01:12:46 --> 01:12:50

and that this President has violated the value of life. But

01:12:51 --> 01:12:54

no, Wisconsin is actually one of the states where most of Americans

01:12:54 --> 01:12:59

alone can determine the outcome there, wow. percent of yes,

01:12:59 --> 01:13:07

there's approximately 60,000 voters, Muslim Americans, and the

01:13:07 --> 01:13:12

states can in this year round, can potentially go with 1000 votes.

01:13:12 --> 01:13:17

2000 votes will determine who will win that state. It would be

01:13:17 --> 01:13:22

malpractice if we just listened to the journalists. And so we're

01:13:22 --> 01:13:26

going to do everything we can to make sure we single state where we

01:13:26 --> 01:13:31

have potential will go down and in history that we were the reasons

01:13:31 --> 01:13:35

we take the blame for delivering it away from history. And so that

01:13:35 --> 01:13:41

was his goal. I have to say, No, it's not enough to not vote for

01:13:41 --> 01:13:44

Biden, you have to vote for the guy who's going to defeat him.

01:13:45 --> 01:13:50

Well, we feel we have a committee that's working on candidate

01:13:50 --> 01:13:55

selection. A lot of abandoned, we haven't come or endorsed anyone, I

01:13:55 --> 01:14:00

can tell you, a lot of our people are feel Mr. Trump is truly

01:14:00 --> 01:14:05

distasteful. And so the argument has been that it's likely that an

01:14:05 --> 01:14:08

independent candidate would be selected there and we have

01:14:08 --> 01:14:11

interviews with the Green Party and Cornel West.

01:14:12 --> 01:14:16

What I want and my responsibility to Allah subhanaw taala is to

01:14:16 --> 01:14:23

ensure that we win. And so I just want us to be all together and

01:14:23 --> 01:14:28

unite it so that we there is no fitna no division. And so the goal

01:14:28 --> 01:14:33

is to create shorter, and we've been doing hearings since early

01:14:33 --> 01:14:37

February examining leave it blank, examining a right in examining

01:14:37 --> 01:14:40

independent candidates, and everyone is discussing the

01:14:40 --> 01:14:44

questions you brought up by the way, brother that sometimes

01:14:45 --> 01:14:48

vote for a candidate or actually not sometimes but a vote for a

01:14:48 --> 01:14:51

particular candidate goes further than voting for another candidate.

01:14:52 --> 01:14:56

We feel it's important that everyone vote, vote vote vote

01:14:56 --> 01:14:59

exclamations, because that shows you're part of the system and then

01:14:59 --> 01:15:00

we

01:15:00 --> 01:15:03

can establish that we were the ones who have a credible threat

01:15:03 --> 01:15:06

that we were behind this, that we can take the blame that is

01:15:06 --> 01:15:09

historically written that is because of us. And so that's

01:15:09 --> 01:15:12

critical. But the question is vote for who and we're taking our time,

01:15:12 --> 01:15:16

we're going to have a large convention, August 31, September

01:15:16 --> 01:15:18

1, where we're going to announce that endorsement, we're going to

01:15:18 --> 01:15:20

bring folks from across the country, the media, national

01:15:20 --> 01:15:23

media, international media will be there after the Democratic

01:15:25 --> 01:15:31

Convention, and we will try to do the best we can to deliver the

01:15:31 --> 01:15:36

most sound, sound endorsement, so that we can truly achieve our

01:15:36 --> 01:15:42

goals in sha Allah. So Milwaukee, sorry, Wisconsin. I have here a

01:15:42 --> 01:15:45

gentleman named Jason treatise saying that a lot of Muslims in

01:15:46 --> 01:15:51

Menomonee, Green Bay, Appleton, Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin.

01:15:51 --> 01:15:57

So then we said Michigan, I would assume Michigan, humongous swing

01:15:57 --> 01:16:00

state, right, where the Muslims would have the most impact,

01:16:00 --> 01:16:03

probably, I guess, after Wisconsin No, right?

01:16:04 --> 01:16:09

Actually, the thing is that Michigan is emphasized because

01:16:09 --> 01:16:12

from all the swing states, 5% of the population is Arab or Muslim

01:16:12 --> 01:16:17

American. But the reality is actually Arizona and Georgia are

01:16:17 --> 01:16:21

far more impactful because the margins are expected to be very

01:16:21 --> 01:16:27

narrow. The margin in Michigan was Georgia and in Arizona, and there

01:16:27 --> 01:16:31

are significant Muslims in Arizona and in Georgia to me, so the

01:16:31 --> 01:16:35

question is, so the media looks often at populations of Muslims

01:16:35 --> 01:16:39

relative to other states. But the real way to look at it is

01:16:39 --> 01:16:43

population relative to expected margin, whether you vote that's a

01:16:43 --> 01:16:46

great way to put it. That's a good way to put it. Yeah, the aggregate

01:16:46 --> 01:16:51

polling. So you So Michigan doesn't have a thin margin, it has

01:16:51 --> 01:16:57

a pretty wide margin towards what democratic? Yes, well, it's not a

01:16:57 --> 01:16:59

significantly wide margin. It's just wider than Georgia and

01:16:59 --> 01:17:04

Arizona. And so you get, you have to make up, for example, in

01:17:04 --> 01:17:09

2020 150,000, but in Georgia, only approximately 10,000 votes made.

01:17:10 --> 01:17:13

Oh, I see what you're saying. So there's more of a swing there.

01:17:13 --> 01:17:16

That's why I'd like Jersey has got a ton of Muslims, but you're not

01:17:16 --> 01:17:19

even going to come close, because the margin for the Democrats is so

01:17:19 --> 01:17:24

high. So then Ohio, then is famously Ohio and Florida are

01:17:24 --> 01:17:28

famously like, almost 5050. Right? Exactly. Traditionally, Ohio and

01:17:28 --> 01:17:32

Florida and we're located in Florida, recently, Ohio, has now

01:17:32 --> 01:17:36

trended very strongly red. People are arguing that might be the case

01:17:36 --> 01:17:42

in Florida. But Florida is kind of unpredictable, by the power and

01:17:42 --> 01:17:45

permission of Allah subhanaw taala, who knows all things. And

01:17:45 --> 01:17:48

so we are definitely there because we don't know what's going to

01:17:48 --> 01:17:52

happen. And so because he has a proclivity of swinging, we're

01:17:52 --> 01:17:56

actively campaigning to ensure that we're locking Mr. Biden out,

01:17:56 --> 01:17:59

we have a strategy to lock out Mr. Biden in the states of Nevada,

01:17:59 --> 01:18:02

Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina and Florida, and to contain him in

01:18:02 --> 01:18:07

the north in Wisconsin and Michigan. And so and that's where

01:18:07 --> 01:18:11

he, where he has to defend those states. So even if he wins them,

01:18:11 --> 01:18:14

he still loses. Because let's defend and lock him out in the

01:18:14 --> 01:18:17

States. I said earlier in the south, he can't win this election,

01:18:17 --> 01:18:20

even if you won Michigan, because he'll be busy with those states

01:18:20 --> 01:18:24

and not campaigning elsewhere. First of all, do you even think

01:18:24 --> 01:18:29

Biden can campaign just can you physically travel around like

01:18:29 --> 01:18:32

this? It seems like I think that it's this is a whole nother

01:18:32 --> 01:18:35

subject, but I think it's this is abuse of the elderly. What they're

01:18:35 --> 01:18:41

doing, Tim? I am I'm not sure I'd abandoned Biden, one of the things

01:18:41 --> 01:18:44

that often the media asks What's curious about the conversation

01:18:44 --> 01:18:48

about the age is that, in our tradition, I don't think age

01:18:48 --> 01:18:54

really has been a concern for us. We have many leaders, who are

01:18:54 --> 01:18:59

mashallah are elderly, and we respect them and their wisdom and

01:18:59 --> 01:19:02

their knowledge. And so at abandoned Biden, we focused on the

01:19:02 --> 01:19:09

fact that Mr. The President has become a gymnast to dare and was

01:19:09 --> 01:19:13

off limits, and that we would have been supportive of a candidate

01:19:14 --> 01:19:18

that protected lives abroad. Even if that candidate were 90 years of

01:19:18 --> 01:19:22

age, and he lost the opportunity of allies would have never had

01:19:22 --> 01:19:25

this concern, because so many of the electorate currently, and

01:19:25 --> 01:19:30

particularly Gen Z have concerns about his age, even if even if the

01:19:30 --> 01:19:35

events never took place. And so and so he could have counted on us

01:19:36 --> 01:19:41

and potentially won because of us in 2024. But he lost us on that on

01:19:41 --> 01:19:44

that point. Yeah. And it's not if age is not even so much the issue

01:19:44 --> 01:19:49

is health, I should say. Because it seems like that he falters he

01:19:49 --> 01:19:53

mumble he mixes up his words, he's physically falls and it seems to

01:19:53 --> 01:19:57

be like his health is there's no way this person is going to do a

01:19:57 --> 01:20:00

grueling, you know, four months of campaigning

01:20:00 --> 01:20:03

and getting on your jet every other day. And the last month,

01:20:03 --> 01:20:06

you're getting on your jet two, three times a day, and giving

01:20:06 --> 01:20:10

three, four or five talks a day between live and on TV. Like when

01:20:10 --> 01:20:14

you're on the plane, you're on TV. When as soon as you land right on

01:20:14 --> 01:20:18

the tarmac, you have to give, you know, a pep talk, campaign rally,

01:20:18 --> 01:20:22

you got to do three, four rallies a day. So it seems like, Well,

01:20:22 --> 01:20:26

we'll see. But here's another question that came up. And this

01:20:26 --> 01:20:31

came from I can't remember who wrote this, but is a rich,

01:20:31 --> 01:20:35

interesting question here, I think was rich. He says, What are the

01:20:35 --> 01:20:38

chances that they sub in Michelle Obama at the last minute?

01:20:39 --> 01:20:44

Yeah. That is that is, then you have one that did it? Yes,

01:20:44 --> 01:20:48

exactly. We that is possible and abandoned. Biden includes the

01:20:48 --> 01:20:52

president dropping out, of course, as soon as he drops out, we have

01:20:52 --> 01:20:56

to capture can the candidates to ensure that our policies are

01:20:56 --> 01:20:59

properly represented in the White House for whoever is going to be

01:20:59 --> 01:21:03

the nominee, because we will not support someone who stands by the

01:21:03 --> 01:21:08

policies that are currently being undertaken by this administration?

01:21:08 --> 01:21:12

So whoever that person is, if they're going to continue the

01:21:12 --> 01:21:17

genocide, we will simply continue with our campaign. But yes, it

01:21:17 --> 01:21:21

would be it would mean and we will immediately announce and celebrate

01:21:21 --> 01:21:27

that and take credit for that person having dropped, I have a I

01:21:27 --> 01:21:32

have a problem with the way that Muslims are in right now. Because

01:21:32 --> 01:21:35

right now, we can only take down a Democratic candidate.

01:21:37 --> 01:21:41

Okay, we're sort of the Republicans have moved on without

01:21:41 --> 01:21:42

the Muslims, you can't hurt them then.

01:21:44 --> 01:21:48

So this is a problem. There need to be Muslim Republicans, right.

01:21:49 --> 01:21:51

There needs to be Muslim Democrats. And they're the

01:21:52 --> 01:21:57

community should is better off divided up rather than blocked one

01:21:57 --> 01:22:00

way or the other? Because if we're all Democrats all the time, then

01:22:00 --> 01:22:05

why do they need to cater to us? And why would the Republicans try

01:22:05 --> 01:22:08

because we're already locked in? So that's this is I mean, this is

01:22:08 --> 01:22:11

this is what the Jews did very well. Like, you can't say Jews are

01:22:11 --> 01:22:15

Democrat or Republican. They're going to side with both. They have

01:22:15 --> 01:22:19

significant Republicans and significant Democrats, the biggest

01:22:19 --> 01:22:23

donors, the Democratic Party are Jews, the biggest leader of the

01:22:23 --> 01:22:27

Conservatives right now, in terms of just at least having a talk

01:22:27 --> 01:22:32

show is basically Ben Shapiro. Right? So that's a smarter

01:22:32 --> 01:22:36

strategy than the situation we find ourselves in, which is Muslim

01:22:36 --> 01:22:38

is a default, Democrat.

01:22:39 --> 01:22:43

So how do we resolve that? Yeah, and obviously Jewish Americans

01:22:43 --> 01:22:46

differ. We have many Jewish Americans who come to our press

01:22:46 --> 01:22:50

conferences and speak out against the genocide. But one of the

01:22:50 --> 01:22:53

things is that the policy on Israel is the same policy has been

01:22:53 --> 01:22:58

mentioning by both parties. And so AIPAC makes sure that both parties

01:22:58 --> 01:23:02

regardless of wins could continue with the policies in the Middle

01:23:02 --> 01:23:06

East. What's curious is that's exactly what abandoned Biden is

01:23:06 --> 01:23:09

about. It's not about the Democrats or the Republicans when

01:23:09 --> 01:23:13

you're in this little basket. Yeah, that party puts you on the

01:23:13 --> 01:23:17

lowest rung of the ladder. They all everyone else on top, exactly,

01:23:17 --> 01:23:21

yeah. And then the other party could completely ignore you. And

01:23:21 --> 01:23:23

the idea of being a credible threat and punishing the candidate

01:23:24 --> 01:23:28

is to begin to create balance and bring those two parties closer to

01:23:28 --> 01:23:32

us by recognizing we have that power. And so our strategy, it may

01:23:32 --> 01:23:35

appear that it's only within the Democratic Party, because the

01:23:35 --> 01:23:38

President is a Democrat. But as I said, that's irrelevant. It's

01:23:38 --> 01:23:42

about us demonstrating that we have the power than rearranging

01:23:42 --> 01:23:45

American politics such that we will have influence in both

01:23:45 --> 01:23:49

parties, that we will not be fearful that when one party wins

01:23:49 --> 01:23:54

over the other, then we the policy swing completely in the new

01:23:54 --> 01:23:59

direction. Remember that by being default, Democrats, it implies

01:23:59 --> 01:24:03

that just like the way the Republicans ignore you, the

01:24:03 --> 01:24:03

Democrats

01:24:04 --> 01:24:06

Yeah, we should be agnostic.

01:24:08 --> 01:24:10

We shouldn't even have Muslim Republicans will some Democrats,

01:24:10 --> 01:24:14

we should all be agnostic together, meaning whatever is in

01:24:14 --> 01:24:17

our interest at this moment in time. That's really the right

01:24:17 --> 01:24:22

approach. Absolutely. Whatever benefits the Ummah whatever

01:24:22 --> 01:24:27

increases and enhances goodness and justice, not are we will be

01:24:27 --> 01:24:32

directed. Your professor, do you have a website? Do you have books?

01:24:32 --> 01:24:37

Do you have articles, anything like that? Yes, I have. I have my

01:24:37 --> 01:24:46

my professor web web page up and I have written the my focus now is

01:24:46 --> 01:24:50

singly on this election. And so our research has had to take a

01:24:50 --> 01:24:55

backstage. It's like working day and night with leaders across the

01:24:55 --> 01:24:59

country. And I feel it's every fiber in me

01:25:00 --> 01:25:03

that I need to make sure by the power and permission of Allah

01:25:03 --> 01:25:09

subhanaw taala that Mr. Biden is deposed. And so that is ahead, my

01:25:09 --> 01:25:12

work and my research I'm learning every day. And I asked Allah

01:25:12 --> 01:25:16

subhanaw taala for Taufiq and nothing happens except by His

01:25:16 --> 01:25:20

will. Wonderful. And we'll see we got a couple months. So you got

01:25:20 --> 01:25:24

eight months what how many months left? What are we in month? Three

01:25:24 --> 01:25:28

month? 11. So you got eight months, right? You got eight

01:25:28 --> 01:25:33

months of work ahead. It's this political stuff is it's it's there

01:25:33 --> 01:25:37

like competitions, these campaigns and there's a lot of excitement

01:25:37 --> 01:25:41

there. And I think it's a lot more exciting when you're just trying

01:25:41 --> 01:25:45

to take someone down than trying to put someone up because it just

01:25:45 --> 01:25:48

seems to be an easier task but that's what we Muslims are at

01:25:48 --> 01:25:52

right now. We're not mature enough to put up a candidate right? We

01:25:52 --> 01:25:55

don't have the finances we don't have the infrastructure we don't

01:25:55 --> 01:25:58

have anything but we can definitely take down a candidate

01:25:58 --> 01:26:03

and we'll see what happens and insha Allah to Allah Allah give

01:26:03 --> 01:26:08

you Tofik if you want to come by things change, come by again give

01:26:08 --> 01:26:13

us the update inshallah. Inshallah Docomo care and your your constant

01:26:13 --> 01:26:17

selflessness and all the amazing work that you do. And if I could

01:26:17 --> 01:26:22

share one moment your brothers and sisters, we are truly a single

01:26:22 --> 01:26:26

body. And we have been coming out in protest after Protest after

01:26:26 --> 01:26:32

protest. Here is an opportunity vote. actively work with us to

01:26:32 --> 01:26:35

campaign against this president who will affect the change that

01:26:35 --> 01:26:40

this woman needs, you should be feeling excruciating pain, because

01:26:40 --> 01:26:46

this ummah is weak, but it's only for a short period. Together, we

01:26:46 --> 01:26:49

can rupture the Zionist link between the United States and

01:26:49 --> 01:26:55

Israel and bring back in sha Allah, the glory of this ummah, in

01:26:55 --> 01:27:00

all parts of the world, including here in the United States. May

01:27:00 --> 01:27:03

Allah subhanaw taala be with each of you may Allah subhanaw taala

01:27:03 --> 01:27:07

grant this victory was salam. Aleikum, wa salam Abdullah, very

01:27:07 --> 01:27:10

well said very well said just like a look into Doctor, again, you're

01:27:10 --> 01:27:16

listening to Hassan Abdul Salam, a professor of human rights,

01:27:16 --> 01:27:21

political science, many other sociology many other subjects in

01:27:21 --> 01:27:25

Minnesota. Thank you very much again. And we can now turn to your

01:27:25 --> 01:27:30

comments and your questions. We had 235 on Facebook, on YouTube

01:27:30 --> 01:27:36

watching and probably another 6070 on Instagram. So let's open it up.

01:27:36 --> 01:27:38

Let's start off with your comments. You want to talk about

01:27:39 --> 01:27:43

the interview that we just had, or you want to talk about? We can

01:27:43 --> 01:27:45

open it up to other questions. Of course, we're going to ask what

01:27:45 --> 01:27:49

breaks my fast Baba ba How do I pay Zika? those basic questions

01:27:49 --> 01:27:52

that always come around at this time of year. Bring them if you

01:27:52 --> 01:27:54

have them no problem. Okay.

01:27:56 --> 01:27:59

Rich go says some people saying they're gonna take they're gonna

01:27:59 --> 01:28:03

let Biden take the blame for the Ukraine and Philistine Biden was a

01:28:03 --> 01:28:08

terrible. His presidency was terrible, because he was so weak.

01:28:09 --> 01:28:12

Right? Everyone says to like, oh, we could do what we want. Right?

01:28:12 --> 01:28:14

Because technically, this is the

01:28:15 --> 01:28:18

police. You know, the policemen of the world is the United States

01:28:18 --> 01:28:20

when the President is so weak, everyone does what they want.

01:28:22 --> 01:28:26

Can we count Tada? We have Korea, Malaysia, it's all one. Tada. We

01:28:26 --> 01:28:30

had Korea, Malaysia. But as long as you do it before sleeping, it's

01:28:30 --> 01:28:31

called Tarawa and Korea

01:28:32 --> 01:28:36

is called taraweeh. When you do it after you sleep, it's called

01:28:36 --> 01:28:39

tahajjud. And both of them are in the broad category of camera

01:28:39 --> 01:28:40

light.

01:28:42 --> 01:28:45

Okay, is it permissible to eat kosher meat at a restaurant in the

01:28:45 --> 01:28:47

United States?

01:28:48 --> 01:28:50

It is yes.

01:28:53 --> 01:28:56

What organization would you recommend paying Vidya?

01:28:57 --> 01:29:00

Vidya, you should give fideo

01:29:01 --> 01:29:06

by the way, do we have an answer on fifth year and cafardo to that

01:29:06 --> 01:29:10

payment and that food has to be for local people? And we know that

01:29:10 --> 01:29:14

that's an fitzer Answer kattiline. So getting Mel, have to be given

01:29:14 --> 01:29:19

locally. Now if you give them abroad like you send us a send us

01:29:19 --> 01:29:24

a cat, because it's going to be valid, but it's not what is

01:29:25 --> 01:29:28

the correct way to do it? The correct way to do it is to give

01:29:28 --> 01:29:33

your Zika to the local people who share in your life and get to see

01:29:33 --> 01:29:38

your life and see your wealth and our miskeen so that their envy is

01:29:38 --> 01:29:41

alleviated from their heart when they receive a nice check of Zika.

01:29:42 --> 01:29:48

Good. So question is that is Fidelia and CO Farah? Are there

01:29:48 --> 01:29:52

mandates for that to be local to we have to research that before we

01:29:52 --> 01:29:56

answer take your time research thing. Are there any cures to

01:29:56 --> 01:29:59

ADHD, OCD, and other mental disorders in Islam?

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

Um,

01:30:01 --> 01:30:06

yeah, there's behavioral changes. And there are chemical changes.

01:30:06 --> 01:30:10

And there's medicines. And there's techniques for both. There's

01:30:10 --> 01:30:14

techniques for behavioral changes. And there are medicines for OCD.

01:30:14 --> 01:30:16

And then I've seen it work on people.

01:30:17 --> 01:30:18

Okay, a

01:30:19 --> 01:30:21

lot of families, I think that especially traditional families,

01:30:21 --> 01:30:24

they get scared of giving their kids the getting on demand

01:30:24 --> 01:30:27

medication. Yeah, I worry about those medications very early on.

01:30:27 --> 01:30:30

You never know what you're putting in your body. You're it's just not

01:30:30 --> 01:30:34

known. But do you think what do you think then it's advisable to

01:30:34 --> 01:30:36

go with the doctors, even if they're, you know, they're

01:30:36 --> 01:30:40

secular. Go with their advice on taking the medicine or? It depends

01:30:40 --> 01:30:44

on how bad I see the issue is, if I feel that it can be altered by

01:30:44 --> 01:30:50

behavior by behavioral changing, Tobia, right, then yeah, I'm gonna

01:30:50 --> 01:30:55

go with the behavioral changes. If it's something that's out of

01:30:55 --> 01:30:58

control now, like I can't change this with behavioral and this is

01:30:58 --> 01:31:03

literally something chemical, in my estimation. And the doctor that

01:31:03 --> 01:31:07

I'm dealing with is not a trigger happy guy. Then you know, lessors

01:31:07 --> 01:31:08

are basically yeah

01:31:09 --> 01:31:14

Newfies reminded me and meze and masteries Allah, Allah says that

01:31:14 --> 01:31:17

he will lock me with new units who have noticed these are the four

01:31:17 --> 01:31:23

that alpha Lee relied upon. Okay. The four that Helene relied upon

01:31:25 --> 01:31:26

misery.

01:31:27 --> 01:31:30

I don't know if they've maybe within the method, maybe low on

01:31:30 --> 01:31:34

this burning before and smelling the fragrance break the fast. Yes,

01:31:34 --> 01:31:39

because it's a vapor that goes up and can produce a drop of liquid

01:31:39 --> 01:31:43

down into your throat. The shower is okay. However, because the

01:31:43 --> 01:31:48

shower is something that you can't avoid. Hey, oh my god, can you

01:31:48 --> 01:31:51

please put our launch good. Dash stuffiness slash stuffing society,

01:31:52 --> 01:31:56

for our kitchen? Life? Continue, we continue to work hard and

01:31:56 --> 01:31:59

continue to expand this soup kitchen.

01:32:01 --> 01:32:06

Now the website, the launch go to website? Yeah. Not on the website.

01:32:06 --> 01:32:07

The actual website? Yeah.

01:32:09 --> 01:32:14

Yeah, the actual website. We're, we're gutting the basement. The

01:32:14 --> 01:32:16

workers? Are there the vans are there ometer. When you went

01:32:16 --> 01:32:19

downstairs, you saw the vans. Right? The construction has begun.

01:32:19 --> 01:32:23

So but we need help, because this is like one big push. And then

01:32:23 --> 01:32:26

we're gonna have rental units down there. We're going to be able to

01:32:26 --> 01:32:30

rent this operation. Yeah, there we go. Click on the website, see

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

where we're at?

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

No, he's from England.

01:32:34 --> 01:32:38

But his aim is from England. Is your microphone. Right? Oh, keep

01:32:38 --> 01:32:39

your mic up.

01:32:40 --> 01:32:45

Here all the clicks. Oh, is that right? Okay. So we continue to

01:32:45 --> 01:32:48

build out this basement, we're going to have rental units. And

01:32:48 --> 01:32:51

now it's going to be a matter of filling in the tenants. And I

01:32:51 --> 01:32:55

think we're gonna get brothers, right? It should be easy. I want

01:32:55 --> 01:32:55

to get

01:32:56 --> 01:33:00

students of knowledge in there. Why? Because you know, there's not

01:33:00 --> 01:33:02

going to be smoking issues. You're gonna be drinking issues. It's not

01:33:02 --> 01:33:03

going to be Vince.

01:33:05 --> 01:33:07

They're going to help out.

01:33:08 --> 01:33:11

Right? They're going to help out. Their parents are probably

01:33:11 --> 01:33:17

doctors. I want Desi kids can should really sign up. Let's go. I

01:33:17 --> 01:33:19

know your parents got money. I know one of your mom's a doctor,

01:33:19 --> 01:33:21

your dad's a doctor. Okay.

01:33:24 --> 01:33:27

Good. So where we're at? We'll put it on the screen.

01:33:28 --> 01:33:32

Yeah, but on the screen, so we can see where we're at. With our

01:33:32 --> 01:33:36

launch good campaign. All right, give us a scroll down a little bit

01:33:36 --> 01:33:38

to see where we're at. And we are

01:33:40 --> 01:33:47

15,086 Not bad. Keep it keep it there. Keep it there. Let it be

01:33:47 --> 01:33:52

still there. And let's try to get this to 15 Five today. All right,

01:33:53 --> 01:33:55

we get this to 50 and five, that will be wonderful because

01:33:57 --> 01:34:02

it's a live counter. 214 people have supported us. Some people

01:34:02 --> 01:34:07

even put one buck. Some people put one British pounds, whatever it

01:34:07 --> 01:34:11

is, doesn't make a difference. But if we forget 15 five, maybe be too

01:34:11 --> 01:34:15

too much. Let's just get to 15. To how's that 15. Two is very

01:34:15 --> 01:34:18

reasonable while we while we answer questions, because this is

01:34:18 --> 01:34:21

going to go to the apartment. Okay, that we're building out an

01:34:21 --> 01:34:26

apartment downstairs. That means from the lock Cosina house. It

01:34:26 --> 01:34:31

will be divided into five segments, three for rental, one

01:34:31 --> 01:34:35

for the studio and one for the kitchen. Right? So we're making

01:34:35 --> 01:34:41

use of two parts. And we're renting out three parts. So we

01:34:41 --> 01:34:44

have a family here, right underneath has another family on

01:34:44 --> 01:34:45

the first floor.

01:34:46 --> 01:34:47

And then the basement

01:34:48 --> 01:34:51

will have and it's legal. It's all legal, legal egress and everything

01:34:54 --> 01:34:57

is one. Yeah, that's one one apartment.

01:34:58 --> 01:35:00

Mercedes is two doors to one

01:35:00 --> 01:35:04

One apartment for her family. And then Edwin downstairs is one

01:35:04 --> 01:35:09

family. And then downstairs in the basement is going to be, by the

01:35:09 --> 01:35:12

way, it's going to be luxury. It's like a luxury apartment, right?

01:35:12 --> 01:35:15

Because we're going to charge a decent rent. You get to be part of

01:35:15 --> 01:35:19

La Cosina you get to live here. So we're charging a pretty decent

01:35:19 --> 01:35:21

rent. We're not going to be charging a lightweight rent.

01:35:21 --> 01:35:24

That's why I said I want those kids whose dad's a doctor or

01:35:24 --> 01:35:27

something like that kid who doesn't know you know what prices

01:35:27 --> 01:35:27

look like?

01:35:29 --> 01:35:32

That's a good I want so man you're like a candidate for that, aren't

01:35:32 --> 01:35:32

you?

01:35:34 --> 01:35:36

Except you're married now so I can't do it.

01:35:37 --> 01:35:41

suit a student of knowledge prioritize studying a recitation

01:35:41 --> 01:35:44

of Quran and Ramadan and Ramadan recitation of Quran outside of

01:35:44 --> 01:35:48

that study. And in terms of recitation and observe Quran Hamza

01:35:48 --> 01:35:50

Quran of course, no doubt about that.

01:35:54 --> 01:35:58

Dominique benzoin he says this enterprising mashallah that

01:35:59 --> 01:36:03

yes, so, the donation goes to produce more revenue for the

01:36:03 --> 01:36:08

organization not donation comes and boom, masha Allah Allahu Akbar

01:36:08 --> 01:36:09

on

01:36:10 --> 01:36:17

in one minute, I think two minutes were at 15 524. And that was huge.

01:36:17 --> 01:36:21

That was wait a second Didn't I just say 214 supporters before so

01:36:21 --> 01:36:25

two supporters put us over the top. Amazing job well done.

01:36:26 --> 01:36:30

Amazing job 15. Five Mashallah.

01:36:31 --> 01:36:35

There's must be constant charges. Someone was asking if you're

01:36:35 --> 01:36:38

renting it out. How are you nonprofit? Yes, because nonprofit

01:36:38 --> 01:36:42

does not mean you can't produce revenue. Nonprofit means that the

01:36:42 --> 01:36:47

revenue doesn't go to the founders, or the board members, or

01:36:47 --> 01:36:53

the directors. The not it stays within. Second of all tax

01:36:53 --> 01:36:58

exemption has limits to so a nonprofit it's tax exempt when

01:36:58 --> 01:37:01

it's doing what it's chartered to do.

01:37:03 --> 01:37:07

Let's say we went and opened up for example, a shop.

01:37:08 --> 01:37:14

That shop wouldn't be tax exempt. Right? If we owned that store, and

01:37:14 --> 01:37:16

we ran a store and we were in a visit, that wouldn't be that

01:37:16 --> 01:37:22

income would not be tax exempt. So not every single item in the list

01:37:22 --> 01:37:23

of revenues is tax exempt.

01:37:25 --> 01:37:27

So that's one thing the tax exemption is one thing the

01:37:27 --> 01:37:31

nonprofit status, you can have revenue in the matter that you're

01:37:31 --> 01:37:32

doing in the

01:37:35 --> 01:37:38

you know, subject matter that you that your charter to do. What's

01:37:38 --> 01:37:43

the medical position on paying zakat on money, or gold gifted to

01:37:43 --> 01:37:43

children?

01:37:45 --> 01:37:48

If a year has passed is accountable, his guardian has to

01:37:48 --> 01:37:49

pay as a cat on it.

01:37:51 --> 01:37:54

His guardian must pays a cat on that. If it's gold jewelry,

01:37:54 --> 01:37:58

there's no as a cat on jewelry, gold, silver, diamonds, Sapphire,

01:37:58 --> 01:38:04

whatever it is, there's no zakat. There's no Zika on on these fine

01:38:04 --> 01:38:04

gems either.

01:38:06 --> 01:38:09

Right so you can own sapphire, you can own emeralds, you can have a

01:38:09 --> 01:38:12

whole bag of rubies, there's no doubt on that. Unless it's

01:38:12 --> 01:38:16

something you plan to hold on to. And trade if you're holding on to

01:38:16 --> 01:38:21

it. Because you just like it. There's no sick cat on it. If

01:38:21 --> 01:38:23

you're holding on to it, because one day you're going to sell it

01:38:24 --> 01:38:27

then the day you sell it you pay zakat on it

01:38:28 --> 01:38:30

if you're you have it because you're constantly buying selling

01:38:30 --> 01:38:31

these things.

01:38:32 --> 01:38:37

Then you pay zakat on it on its inventory now, and inventory once

01:38:37 --> 01:38:41

a year. You pay his account on your inventory and you subtract

01:38:43 --> 01:38:44

you subtract the

01:38:46 --> 01:38:52

other hundreds 15 624 Masha Allah, I mean, I said to get to 15 Five

01:38:52 --> 01:38:55

then said nah, I don't like to burden anybody. Let's just go

01:38:55 --> 01:38:59

nickel and dime it to 15 two. And now we're at 15 Six. You see,

01:38:59 --> 01:39:02

sometimes you try to single to left you home or to right, right

01:39:02 --> 01:39:05

you know that saying? It's actually a true story. It's a true

01:39:05 --> 01:39:12

story where it's game seven in the LDS no ALCS, the American League

01:39:12 --> 01:39:15

Championship Series in baseball, British people don't know this.

01:39:15 --> 01:39:18

But in America, we have a sport here called baseball which is like

01:39:18 --> 01:39:25

cricket but Americanized. And it's taught at any next run for the

01:39:25 --> 01:39:28

Yankees. They win the whole thing they go to World Series. So Joe

01:39:28 --> 01:39:34

Torre goes to Aaron Boone, who was just a regular player, he wasn't

01:39:34 --> 01:39:38

great or anything. And he says to him as he's about to go up to bat

01:39:38 --> 01:39:41

he says, just try to single to right you might home or the left,

01:39:41 --> 01:39:44

right. And that's exactly what happened. Right and he wins the

01:39:44 --> 01:39:48

game and he became famous and he got traded next season for a rod

01:39:48 --> 01:39:48

but

01:39:49 --> 01:39:52

that's the concept if you actually try to do something reasonable

01:39:52 --> 01:39:56

sometimes you end up going further than you expect.

01:39:57 --> 01:39:59

Is it halal to eat chickens slaughtered?

01:40:00 --> 01:40:04

by Al Kitab in the Maliki method if you're certain that they are al

01:40:04 --> 01:40:07

Kitab and you are certain that they cut the neck then you may eat

01:40:07 --> 01:40:12

it, such as the Amish in Pennsylvania. The Amish are a part

01:40:12 --> 01:40:18

of a religious group called the Mennonites got. The Mennonites?

01:40:18 --> 01:40:24

And they have very Mennonites are very it's there's a number of

01:40:24 --> 01:40:27

Mennonite groups. One of them is the Amish. The Mennonites are

01:40:27 --> 01:40:32

very, very conservative people in terms of technology, so they still

01:40:33 --> 01:40:37

they don't have communities the way we do they still slaughter

01:40:37 --> 01:40:41

with the hand they cook with the hand. All right, and we have

01:40:41 --> 01:40:46

another update. Now we're at 16. One, two people, Masha, Allah, how

01:40:46 --> 01:40:51

amazing is that? On two people 16. One, may Allah bless you all and

01:40:51 --> 01:40:54

support you. This truly is a community wide effort. Some of you

01:40:54 --> 01:40:55

want.

01:40:56 --> 01:41:01

Luck, Cosina hoodies, I'll tell you what, from here on every few

01:41:01 --> 01:41:04

weeks or something, we're going to actually produce a new design. And

01:41:04 --> 01:41:06

we're going to sell it on the stream. But there's only one

01:41:06 --> 01:41:10

wrinkle here. US only okay, because the shipping is too much

01:41:10 --> 01:41:13

to Canada. And you got to know why the shipping to Canada is any big

01:41:13 --> 01:41:17

deal when parts of the United States are further than Canada.

01:41:18 --> 01:41:22

Yeah, so I can I can send to Cali I can send to mean, Maine is

01:41:22 --> 01:41:26

further than Detroit. I mean, sorry. Then Ottawa. Then Toronto.

01:41:27 --> 01:41:30

Right. Maine is higher up than Toronto. If my map is.

01:41:32 --> 01:41:33

Yeah, yeah.

01:41:35 --> 01:41:37

I was really thinking about when I was in Syria, like

01:41:38 --> 01:41:41

you when you go past the border in Turkey. Like you can drive maybe

01:41:41 --> 01:41:44

20 minutes down. It's like a bustling city. Like people like

01:41:44 --> 01:41:48

turkey. Yeah, in Turkey. Like 20 minutes from you know, where we

01:41:48 --> 01:41:51

were in Syria. And people like during Iftar time we were there

01:41:51 --> 01:41:54

and the amount of food that's being wasted. The excessiveness,

01:41:54 --> 01:41:57

the hedonism that's going on there, like people will be eating

01:41:57 --> 01:42:00

like, you know, it's ridic, whatever. They really want buying

01:42:00 --> 01:42:03

this, they'll throw it out. And I was thinking myself it like

01:42:03 --> 01:42:06

imagine if this was the time of the process of 20 minutes down?

01:42:06 --> 01:42:10

Yeah, yeah. The Muslims, the Muslims, not the Muslims. Right.

01:42:10 --> 01:42:14

They're throwing out so much food, wasting so much food. 20 minutes

01:42:14 --> 01:42:16

down, they could have traveled. Yeah, their brother and sister

01:42:16 --> 01:42:19

starving and dying. fed them. Right. They're starving. 20

01:42:19 --> 01:42:24

minutes. 20 minutes, 20 minutes down. So someone could go take the

01:42:24 --> 01:42:27

leftovers off the restaurant plates when you're done. Don't

01:42:27 --> 01:42:29

throw it on the garbage people like and they would eat it. They

01:42:29 --> 01:42:32

take one sip. And this is like the waiter takes it away. 20 minutes

01:42:32 --> 01:42:32

down.

01:42:34 --> 01:42:36

That's discussed because of the British that drew these fake

01:42:36 --> 01:42:40

lines. Yeah, for the Muslims. Yep. Now we accepted it.

01:42:41 --> 01:42:44

And you can't pass that line who says I can't pass that line. We

01:42:44 --> 01:42:48

just made it up in our heads. This area right here. I would say by

01:42:48 --> 01:42:52

2050 is going to be a good chunk is going to be Muslim.

01:42:53 --> 01:42:57

Because of the soup kitchen insha Allah Tala by Allah's power and

01:42:57 --> 01:43:02

Baba and bun and through the soup kitchen, because we're developing

01:43:02 --> 01:43:05

a lot of relationships. Now you won't believe this next initiative

01:43:05 --> 01:43:11

that we have, we got a corporate donation of 1000 sneakers.

01:43:13 --> 01:43:15

We got a corporate donation, we're in the process of securing it.

01:43:17 --> 01:43:20

No Corp, seek sneakers,

01:43:24 --> 01:43:29

vans, and other sneakers. Right. So we're gonna have a massive

01:43:29 --> 01:43:34

bonanza. and organize it, you come in, you show up, you we're going

01:43:34 --> 01:43:39

to put out like, maybe 10 pairs at a time. 20 pairs at a time and one

01:43:39 --> 01:43:43

person at a time. So it's no chaos, right? You pick the sneaker

01:43:43 --> 01:43:47

you want and we'll have them in sizes. So all the sides 567 So we

01:43:47 --> 01:43:50

can have lines, we can do this outdoors. And we can have lines

01:43:50 --> 01:43:54

for all the sizes and you get in line. We're gonna need a lot of

01:43:54 --> 01:43:55

volunteers. I don't want chaos.

01:43:57 --> 01:44:01

We have a catalog we have you're gonna go in you're gonna have 60

01:44:01 --> 01:44:04

seconds to pick less than that. You have 10 seconds to pick a pair

01:44:04 --> 01:44:09

of shoes, right? So the size 12 will be in one area size 1110 Nine

01:44:09 --> 01:44:14

all the way down to one. Right? Then we're gonna play the Quran

01:44:14 --> 01:44:16

and some qasida so they can hear the word of Allah subhanaw taala

01:44:17 --> 01:44:17

Alright,

01:44:19 --> 01:44:21

law and order, you're going to stand in line.

01:44:23 --> 01:44:28

And then afterwards somewhere else we can have maybe a vendor, we

01:44:28 --> 01:44:32

bring in a vendor, or we bring in someone to bring some food so that

01:44:32 --> 01:44:35

there could be like a nice atmosphere to it. But that's how

01:44:35 --> 01:44:40

it's gonna be. It's gonna be a massive 1000 sneaker Bonanza we

01:44:40 --> 01:44:44

need your drone for that. You guys saw the video

01:44:45 --> 01:44:48

so the video that was said again with their drone there's a group

01:44:48 --> 01:44:50

in Texas called a said again.

01:44:51 --> 01:44:54

They're the ones who provided that drone footage of like Cosina

01:44:56 --> 01:44:58

I think we have a beautiful Soup Kitchen and you know what else I

01:44:58 --> 01:44:59

want to get this this this summer so

01:45:00 --> 01:45:03

especially the summertime, this place is poppin because it's got

01:45:03 --> 01:45:07

the vibe now it's summer, right? He's got your Mexican Andalusi

01:45:07 --> 01:45:11

vibe to it. I want to get a landscaper. I want a landscaper to

01:45:11 --> 01:45:14

properly like, put the

01:45:15 --> 01:45:19

pots up on the walls, grow the plants, we can take care of them

01:45:19 --> 01:45:23

after that, but don't put it up themselves. Right? I want there to

01:45:23 --> 01:45:28

be greener everywhere. And you really truly have that Mexican

01:45:28 --> 01:45:31

restaurant, slash Andalusi and Mediterranean vibe. It's a little

01:45:31 --> 01:45:32

bit of a merging of both

01:45:36 --> 01:45:36

different branches.

01:45:39 --> 01:45:42

Now after we nail this down properly,

01:45:43 --> 01:45:47

Omar, can you put up, open up another tab? Keep this tab in

01:45:47 --> 01:45:50

because we'll go to it later. I want you to open up the YouTube

01:45:50 --> 01:45:52

video that we put up.

01:45:53 --> 01:45:56

And then pause it. Pause it at

01:45:59 --> 01:46:01

go down. Yeah, there we go. Right there. Yeah.

01:46:04 --> 01:46:06

Look at that. Keep going.

01:46:08 --> 01:46:10

Hit plan to actually rewind a little bit.

01:46:11 --> 01:46:14

Look at that layer. There you go. Look at that shot. That's my

01:46:14 --> 01:46:17

favorite shot of the soup kitchen rewind a little bit more.

01:46:19 --> 01:46:23

To the render. We what we did, yeah, the play. No, let it play.

01:46:23 --> 01:46:26

And watch this. Look at that. Gorgeous, stop right there.

01:46:27 --> 01:46:30

Keep that. Just keep it there. Keep that on the screen.

01:46:31 --> 01:46:33

Especially when the sun is on there. Look at how gorgeous that

01:46:33 --> 01:46:36

soup kitchen is. Right? I want to go eat there. You know what we're

01:46:36 --> 01:46:41

gonna do? We're gonna start having the chefs on site. Right? And

01:46:41 --> 01:46:45

maybe if we get good enough, we we grow the vegetables on site too.

01:46:46 --> 01:46:51

So you're actually getting, you know, proper, proper food. But I

01:46:51 --> 01:46:55

look at those sisters ain't up. Did you know sisters? Anna was

01:46:55 --> 01:46:59

very good at gardening too. She's the one who proved who provided

01:46:59 --> 01:47:03

those lush green plants. I'm debating do I put more pots up or

01:47:03 --> 01:47:06

is that enough? Right. I'm debating it.

01:47:07 --> 01:47:11

Right here. Use your mouse. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, we need more

01:47:11 --> 01:47:14

there. 100. Yeah, we need more there. Go to the Instagram, see

01:47:14 --> 01:47:18

what kind of commentary they have their quest q&a on Instagram. Hey,

01:47:18 --> 01:47:21

if you're on Instagram, and you want to see the whole streets to

01:47:21 --> 01:47:27

screen go to YouTube, slash Safina society. Let's take this question

01:47:27 --> 01:47:29

from Sam St. F.

01:47:31 --> 01:47:34

Can I just give the cat to an Islamic organization?

01:47:35 --> 01:47:41

When they take percentages from administration costs? The answer

01:47:41 --> 01:47:45

is that you are allowed to give Zika

01:47:46 --> 01:47:51

through a web kill something called a Joaquin, a representative

01:47:51 --> 01:47:52

who will then

01:47:54 --> 01:47:59

distribute it to the poor. That representative if he is a part

01:47:59 --> 01:48:03

time or full time worker will take his salary from this account

01:48:03 --> 01:48:04

itself.

01:48:05 --> 01:48:10

That is held for him. Okay, so let's take an example. An Oregon a

01:48:10 --> 01:48:12

masjid gets $1 million

01:48:13 --> 01:48:15

of Zika a year.

01:48:18 --> 01:48:22

Yeah, go there. A message gets a million dollars of Zika a year.

01:48:24 --> 01:48:27

And the employee that works on that

01:48:29 --> 01:48:29

is full time.

01:48:30 --> 01:48:34

And he gets $100,000 salary a year?

01:48:36 --> 01:48:40

Because let's say he has five kids, then yes, that's how that he

01:48:40 --> 01:48:45

can take it from the Zika. But the Zika should be going to the poor.

01:48:46 --> 01:48:50

Okay. It's not going to turn the lights on of the mosque. It's not

01:48:50 --> 01:48:51

going to

01:48:52 --> 01:48:57

pay for you know, the janitor of the mosque know it's going to the

01:48:57 --> 01:48:59

Zika distributor.

01:49:02 --> 01:49:03

And it's going to the poor

01:49:04 --> 01:49:09

should you conceal if you are from Atlanta debate. You can take it on

01:49:09 --> 01:49:12

a case by case basis because some people may consider this to be

01:49:14 --> 01:49:19

showing off. So in Syria, they they keep it to themselves. Right?

01:49:19 --> 01:49:23

But in Yemen, it's quite common for people to say we're from

01:49:23 --> 01:49:26

lineage of so and so from in Egypt is pretty common. You say oh, so

01:49:26 --> 01:49:30

and so it's from where from the lineage of so and so. But in

01:49:30 --> 01:49:32

Syria, they tend to keep it to themselves. And that may be from

01:49:32 --> 01:49:36

historical purposes because it made sometimes it's not always

01:49:36 --> 01:49:37

welcome in Syria.

01:49:38 --> 01:49:41

But Allah knows best but it you have to judge the people around

01:49:41 --> 01:49:43

you. Are they going to find this? What are you some kind of snob now

01:49:43 --> 01:49:46

tell so what do you want me to kiss your hand next time I talk to

01:49:46 --> 01:49:49

you, like people may have that attitude, which is not the good

01:49:49 --> 01:49:51

attitude towards the debate. I'm just saying that may be their

01:49:51 --> 01:49:55

attitude. So that would be a reason why you conceal it.

01:49:56 --> 01:50:00

It's not concealing it but you're not announcing it, but it

01:50:00 --> 01:50:03

If people would say, Oh, that's wonderful. I love that. Then yeah,

01:50:03 --> 01:50:05

you can tell them certain menu from Arabic, right?

01:50:07 --> 01:50:07

No.

01:50:09 --> 01:50:12

Okay. Like most people in the city

01:50:13 --> 01:50:17

if you read the prophet Muhammad's name, can you think of sallallahu

01:50:17 --> 01:50:20

alayhi wasallam? Or do you have to speak it? If you're reading

01:50:20 --> 01:50:24

silently in your head, then you then it's in your head. If you're

01:50:24 --> 01:50:27

reading out loud, then you have to say it all up. Maureen money says

01:50:27 --> 01:50:31

how do I guide my parents to the correct opt EDA? Maybe you can

01:50:31 --> 01:50:34

just put videos on and let them hear it in the background. Maybe

01:50:34 --> 01:50:37

put booklets on the table and you're in the background or have a

01:50:37 --> 01:50:42

polite discussion with them. No problem. What should one do if

01:50:42 --> 01:50:49

there are sinus issues during the fast if it is shut, did he breaker

01:50:49 --> 01:50:53

fest, meaning it's very painful, but if it's just an aggravation,

01:50:53 --> 01:50:57

then you fight through it and try to find solutions in Soho during

01:50:57 --> 01:50:58

Soho.

01:51:00 --> 01:51:04

There is a type of there's Neil med. I don't know if you guys

01:51:04 --> 01:51:10

heard of Neil med. Neil med it's it's a guy named Dr. Nila Hindu

01:51:10 --> 01:51:17

guy who invented this technique. But it's very invasive. You put

01:51:17 --> 01:51:21

it's a it's a saline in warm water. And he's created this

01:51:21 --> 01:51:24

device. You actually

01:51:25 --> 01:51:29

push this device up your nose. The saline water goes into your

01:51:29 --> 01:51:34

sinuses and out the other knows it's extremely painful. But he

01:51:34 --> 01:51:34

swears by it.

01:51:36 --> 01:51:39

All mine is showing us the back of the soup kitchen. This is where

01:51:39 --> 01:51:44

all our events happen. Look at this gorgeous back.

01:51:46 --> 01:51:49

That's where we are right up there. That's right behind me

01:51:49 --> 01:51:51

right here. What he's pointing to is right behind me right up here.

01:51:52 --> 01:51:56

Yep, that's the window behind us. All right. And that beautiful

01:51:56 --> 01:51:57

patio right there

01:51:59 --> 01:52:01

is where you're going to see this as well. This will be keep busy in

01:52:01 --> 01:52:03

the summer. Look at the kids running around

01:52:05 --> 01:52:09

playing a game there they are. Can you go to the back end of the

01:52:09 --> 01:52:13

video the back of the video showing more of the kids playing

01:52:13 --> 01:52:18

around? Yeah, all that. All that. All that look at that. Look at

01:52:18 --> 01:52:20

these community events

01:52:23 --> 01:52:28

01:52:28 --> 01:52:33

seeing who you're seeing cooking, donating the food, our community

01:52:38 --> 01:52:41

center people right there. All these Shabaab yet. These are all

01:52:41 --> 01:52:44

daata Fett students look at all these students from Donald fat

01:52:44 --> 01:52:46

suit of people from mbyc.

01:52:50 --> 01:52:51

Okay, there's,

01:52:52 --> 01:52:55

you see that brother with the long luscious hair mashallah, he's

01:52:55 --> 01:52:59

single. Habib is single with the sung see the two the two guys.

01:52:59 --> 01:53:01

Yeah, those two guys are single brothers too young right now. And

01:53:01 --> 01:53:04

if it's still give them a couple more years, five more years.

01:53:06 --> 01:53:07

See Shawn getting married next

01:53:09 --> 01:53:13

week. This man was married already. He's ready. Yeah. Have

01:53:13 --> 01:53:15

you been gnarly? Okay.

01:53:17 --> 01:53:18

All right, keep going.

01:53:21 --> 01:53:23

And these are some of the games that we play for thee. Let me

01:53:23 --> 01:53:25

pause right there. Let me tell you something.

01:53:27 --> 01:53:30

Yeah, pause right there. We started off this thing and say,

01:53:30 --> 01:53:34

you know, we need to help these day laborers. We want to give, we

01:53:34 --> 01:53:37

want to be, you know, a source of ease for them and all that.

01:53:39 --> 01:53:41

What we realized afterwards, though,

01:53:42 --> 01:53:44

is that when we had our opening barbecue,

01:53:45 --> 01:53:49

the kids were going crazy. And we realized, you know what the summer

01:53:49 --> 01:53:54

is all it's all kids from now on. The summer is all kids and we had

01:53:54 --> 01:53:57

this year three events. I think next year, we'll have more. Right?

01:53:57 --> 01:54:02

barbecues. We had a we had the first opening day barbecue and I

01:54:02 --> 01:54:06

wanted to show the New Brunswick Islamic Center, the MBI see the

01:54:06 --> 01:54:10

community, the leadership there. You know, what this is all about?

01:54:10 --> 01:54:14

And someone came up with the brilliant idea of saying why don't

01:54:14 --> 01:54:18

we have a barbecue for the whole New Brunswick Community so that

01:54:18 --> 01:54:21

way, the the leadership of the masjid will be able to see what

01:54:21 --> 01:54:23

their own two eyes what's happening. And you don't have to

01:54:23 --> 01:54:25

say anything. You will have to say we're going to do this. We're

01:54:25 --> 01:54:29

going to do that. Right. I thought that's a brilliant idea. So we had

01:54:29 --> 01:54:34

this event at this event. The moms that came in bought all their

01:54:34 --> 01:54:39

kids, and the kids just had a blast. They just don't have space

01:54:40 --> 01:54:43

where they live in New Brunswick. They don't have big spaces like

01:54:43 --> 01:54:45

this. So running around playing games.

01:54:46 --> 01:54:49

Immediately a light bulb went off in my head. The next event we're

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

going to do is going to be a kids game day. And this is what's

01:54:54 --> 01:54:57

happening here like they line up red light, you have to stop green

01:54:57 --> 01:54:59

light you have to go you know this game. Then they played

01:55:00 --> 01:55:04

Musical Chairs, you know, with Islamic machines on course, so

01:55:04 --> 01:55:08

people don't think we're doing something wrong. Then they we had

01:55:08 --> 01:55:11

a cotton candy machine than a popcorn machine. I'm telling you

01:55:11 --> 01:55:15

they had a blast. There must have been 50 kids here that had never

01:55:15 --> 01:55:17

seen anything like this. They don't get free stuff.

01:55:20 --> 01:55:24

After that, what did we do? did another one What was it?

01:55:26 --> 01:55:27

We did a Woman's Day.

01:55:28 --> 01:55:33

A a woman's event, all women came. And then the women from the MBSE

01:55:33 --> 01:55:37

community came, gave talks, one sister was Spanish speaking guy

01:55:37 --> 01:55:39

gave talks

01:55:40 --> 01:55:44

just about Islam, then they just ate it. And then they mingled and

01:55:44 --> 01:55:44

talked.

01:55:46 --> 01:55:50

Then the third event was the back to school event. So we that's when

01:55:50 --> 01:55:55

we put out a whole thing. Give us all your it was an Amazon list.

01:55:55 --> 01:56:00

And you can basically pay for items, pencils, erasers, Trapper

01:56:00 --> 01:56:04

keepers, all those other things, right? You guys don't know what a

01:56:04 --> 01:56:07

trapper keeper is? Remember? We had that debate. Remember that?

01:56:08 --> 01:56:13

Yeah. So all those things, calculators, and then we laid it

01:56:13 --> 01:56:16

out and very systematically, every kid got a bag.

01:56:17 --> 01:56:19

Right? And then he could pick out clothes because there were some

01:56:19 --> 01:56:21

clothes back to school clothes.

01:56:22 --> 01:56:25

Right? Most people get all their clothes, you know, for back to

01:56:25 --> 01:56:29

school. But some of these kids can't afford that. That event was

01:56:29 --> 01:56:34

so massive. It was unbelievable how many kids came out and

01:56:34 --> 01:56:40

families to take a bag of back to school supplies. Right? So that's

01:56:40 --> 01:56:43

basically what we discovered. The summer is usually all about these

01:56:43 --> 01:56:46

kids. I think one of these kids, we're just going to one of these

01:56:46 --> 01:56:48

days, we're going to get the waterslide

01:56:49 --> 01:56:52

you know, we get the water slide out, you know that water slide.

01:56:52 --> 01:56:55

You connect the hose to it. And it's like a plastic strip and the

01:56:55 --> 01:56:59

kids just run and slide. Right. question. My question is, is there

01:56:59 --> 01:57:03

enough space and what are they going to slide into? Right? Slide.

01:57:03 --> 01:57:06

You know, there's a river behind us by the way. I don't want them

01:57:06 --> 01:57:08

slide woof. Right off and into the river.

01:57:10 --> 01:57:14

Yeah, and we got the goat. I got the goat so the kids could like

01:57:14 --> 01:57:18

see an animal farm animal. Of course, that one cop had to

01:57:18 --> 01:57:21

pretend to he was some kind of hero. Okay.

01:57:23 --> 01:57:28

And he reported us. Okay. Yeah, I know. I wanted the kids to see

01:57:28 --> 01:57:32

like a farm animal feel like there's a vibe here. But no, we

01:57:32 --> 01:57:37

have to Rottweilers Okay, no problem. Pit Bulls no problem.

01:57:38 --> 01:57:40

Okay, but this go had to go.

01:57:43 --> 01:57:47

So hit play keep see if there's more footage. No. These kids

01:57:49 --> 01:57:50

pause right there.

01:57:52 --> 01:57:56

Yeah, that's really good. Look at that wonderful picture. That is an

01:57:56 --> 01:57:59

amazing picture. By the way, whoever took that photograph could

01:57:59 --> 01:58:04

that the lighting is amazing. And it's it embodies exactly what we

01:58:04 --> 01:58:07

want because you can see the greenery there. You don't see

01:58:07 --> 01:58:09

greenery like that in other parts in New Brunswick. It's too

01:58:09 --> 01:58:09

crowded.

01:58:11 --> 01:58:11

Got

01:58:16 --> 01:58:20

ever since fetcher comes in at 18 degrees 20 minutes after the event

01:58:21 --> 01:58:23

apps and many massage mess it out time for friends can one still

01:58:23 --> 01:58:27

pray to hedge it after the app says fudges and if we believe in

01:58:27 --> 01:58:30

18 degrees less believe in 18 degrees. If that's what we think

01:58:30 --> 01:58:33

is the correct answer, stick to the correct answer. Right.

01:58:34 --> 01:58:37

And therefore you can pray for 200 before that and federate out of

01:58:37 --> 01:58:38

that.

01:58:44 --> 01:58:47

Can Safina be a child's name? Yes, male or female.

01:58:49 --> 01:58:51

And in this the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had a servant

01:58:51 --> 01:58:52

named Safina

01:58:56 --> 01:58:59

shake rows, what do we do in the winter in the winter? We have our

01:58:59 --> 01:59:04

events indoors, but it's mainly just the dinners. It's not the

01:59:04 --> 01:59:07

nice barbecues in the outside on the patio, outside

01:59:12 --> 01:59:17

the pixel ninja says community volunteers really are the sales of

01:59:17 --> 01:59:20

the Safina that's totally true. The community volunteers it's all

01:59:20 --> 01:59:25

come out comes out of the Masjid. Now third space, no Institute,

01:59:25 --> 01:59:29

plain old Masjid. Okay, because that's where the foot traffic is.

01:59:29 --> 01:59:30

That's where people come in.

01:59:31 --> 01:59:35

Can we speak to who can we speak to for marital problems?

01:59:36 --> 01:59:39

Well, we're about a month and a half away from launching our own

01:59:39 --> 01:59:42

platform for that. By the way. I've mentioned that many times

01:59:42 --> 01:59:46

before. Our own platform for marital support marital coaching,

01:59:46 --> 01:59:49

marital counseling, right. It's professional operation, though,

01:59:50 --> 01:59:50

right?

01:59:52 --> 01:59:55

Counseling. Like that is same thing, but we're starting only

01:59:55 --> 01:59:59

with marital issues before and after marriage like premarital

01:59:59 --> 01:59:59

counseling.

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

bout to get married. Let me show you the ropes it's not going to be

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

me to do it others do it and after marriage issues and it's going to

02:00:08 --> 02:00:10

be a professional operation right

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

yes, Nori, the that what I described that cleans out the

02:00:28 --> 02:00:32

sinuses definitely breaks the fast don't do it while fasting, do it

02:00:32 --> 02:00:34

afterwards afterwards

02:00:45 --> 02:00:49

if you've dream of a wali of Allah or a chef who's alive and you have

02:00:49 --> 02:00:52

never met him, it may mean that you're benefiting from that, Chef.

02:00:52 --> 02:00:53

That's what the meaning is.

02:00:55 --> 02:01:00

Do you do we Muslims believe in the curse of ham, on black people.

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

Now there's there's no authoritative. Even in Judaism.

02:01:04 --> 02:01:08

It's not an it's not like a verse of the Bible. I think it's in the

02:01:08 --> 02:01:10

Talmud. It's a narration in the Talmud or something like that,

02:01:11 --> 02:01:15

which is non canonical. If you don't know what I'm talking about,

02:01:15 --> 02:01:15

it's like this.

02:01:17 --> 02:01:18

Noah's on the ark.

02:01:19 --> 02:01:24

And, of course, his oldest son didn't believe and left. The next

02:01:24 --> 02:01:30

three boys were there that aren't Shem Japheth. And him.

02:01:32 --> 02:01:37

Then, while Prophet Noah was sleeping, allegedly, this is not a

02:01:37 --> 02:01:39

story, we believe in just telling you what the idea is.

02:01:42 --> 02:01:42

Okay,

02:01:43 --> 02:01:48

wind came and blew his job up, and his outer appeared. So Japheth

02:01:49 --> 02:01:54

turned away. Shem covered him really quickly, and ham left.

02:01:57 --> 02:02:01

So Noah woke up to the scene. And he looked at Shem, who covered him

02:02:01 --> 02:02:05

up and he said, may Allah bless you, my prophecy will go to you

02:02:05 --> 02:02:10

next Japheth Allah bless you for turning away. And you will be the

02:02:10 --> 02:02:11

supporters

02:02:12 --> 02:02:16

of him. The prophecy will be with with

02:02:17 --> 02:02:23

Shem and the monarchy will be with Jeff. And as for you, may your

02:02:24 --> 02:02:28

lineage come out black nappy haired and be the slaves of

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

Japheth and him and Shem.

02:02:31 --> 02:02:34

That's the story in the Talmudic story. I believe it's in the

02:02:34 --> 02:02:37

Talmud, if I'm not mistaken. It's not a biblical verse. It's

02:02:37 --> 02:02:40

definitely not an Islamic story. And it's not anything we believe

02:02:40 --> 02:02:40

in.

02:02:41 --> 02:02:45

Now people say, Oh, well, yeah, but it happens. How did it happen?

02:02:45 --> 02:02:50

Oh, because blacks are slaves. It but Albanians were slaves. Whites

02:02:50 --> 02:02:54

were slaves. In China, when they whenever they conquered people,

02:02:54 --> 02:02:59

they took slaves. In the old world, everyone was a slave. When

02:02:59 --> 02:03:01

Muslims conquered Persians that it took persons slaves, they didn't

02:03:01 --> 02:03:06

take just the so so Yes, everyone was a slave at some point. At some

02:03:06 --> 02:03:11

point, when you have wars, you had slavery. That's how wars were

02:03:11 --> 02:03:15

handled back in the old days. So whites had there were white slip,

02:03:15 --> 02:03:19

who is the first the number one slave? Where's the word come from?

02:03:20 --> 02:03:25

The Slavs. The origin of the word comes from the ethnicity of the

02:03:25 --> 02:03:28

people. Because apparently, I guess the Western Europeans took

02:03:28 --> 02:03:31

them as slaves or something like that. I don't I don't know. But we

02:03:31 --> 02:03:36

could look it up. So so just because Americans had black

02:03:36 --> 02:03:39

slaves, and they were, you know, Christians and attributed

02:03:39 --> 02:03:43

themselves to Japheth. So the story as the story goes, when the

02:03:43 --> 02:03:47

Ark landed Shem and his sons stayed around the Mediterranean

02:03:47 --> 02:03:51

and the Syria area. That's why it's called Shem.

02:03:53 --> 02:03:58

Ham went down and his kids came up black into in Africa. Japheth went

02:03:58 --> 02:04:03

up north and his kids came out Scandinavian looking. And Shams

02:04:03 --> 02:04:07

kids stayed the same, which is a mix between brown sometimes very

02:04:07 --> 02:04:11

dark brown, sometimes light, but not white. Not so white, like

02:04:11 --> 02:04:15

Scandinavians in the middle between the between the two. None

02:04:15 --> 02:04:19

of this is authoritative. None of this should be taken home. None of

02:04:19 --> 02:04:23

this has any action upon it. And in fact, we can outright dismiss

02:04:23 --> 02:04:23

it completely.

02:04:27 --> 02:04:31

How's this idiom saying a wall of vines on the LOC kusina kitchen

02:04:31 --> 02:04:34

would be amazing. I totally agree. I mean, I think we need to do

02:04:34 --> 02:04:34

that.

02:04:36 --> 02:04:37

How are we?

02:04:39 --> 02:04:43

It can look like messy. Yep. That's why it needs to be someone

02:04:43 --> 02:04:47

who's taken care of professionally. So that's the

02:04:47 --> 02:04:51

answer for the North Korean survivor on the Muslims believe in

02:04:51 --> 02:04:53

the curse of him that we don't believe in it.

02:04:56 --> 02:04:58

How are we doing on lunch?

02:05:04 --> 02:05:08

Michelle, I spoke to a young man named Eric Curtis,

02:05:09 --> 02:05:12

about Islam and he has commented here and he says it was pleasure

02:05:12 --> 02:05:15

speaking to you today, if I convert to Islam, will I be held

02:05:15 --> 02:05:17

accountable for the days of Ramadan that I missed as a non

02:05:17 --> 02:05:21

Muslim? Number one, you will not be held accountable for what's in

02:05:21 --> 02:05:25

the past No. And number two, the Prophet peace be upon him when he

02:05:25 --> 02:05:26

sent

02:05:27 --> 02:05:32

his companions to preach. He said, first tell them about Islam. If

02:05:32 --> 02:05:37

they accept it, then tell them about the prayer. When they pray,

02:05:37 --> 02:05:40

when they learn how to pray, then tell them about the fast when they

02:05:40 --> 02:05:44

learn how to fast and tell them about the charity sucker. So when

02:05:44 --> 02:05:47

you become a Muslim, you're not expect it's not expected of you to

02:05:47 --> 02:05:53

carry on every single obligation of Islam at once. Rather, you you

02:05:53 --> 02:05:58

strengthen your belief first. So yes, you have belief, now you

02:05:58 --> 02:06:01

strengthen how by reading more about the Prophet more about

02:06:01 --> 02:06:05

Allah, the attributes of God, the the life of the prophet, the

02:06:05 --> 02:06:09

nature of the afterlife, you focus on that first. So it's one thing

02:06:09 --> 02:06:12

Yes, I have absolute certainty. But now you strengthen that

02:06:12 --> 02:06:13

certainty.

02:06:15 --> 02:06:21

By reading a lot men by listening, watch lectures, all about God,

02:06:21 --> 02:06:26

profit, angels, afterlife, Heaven and *. You strengthen your

02:06:26 --> 02:06:29

faith regarding that you listen to the Quran, Allah in the Arabic

02:06:29 --> 02:06:31

even if you don't understand it, it strengthens your heart

02:06:32 --> 02:06:35

after you become strongest, okay, now I'm ready to next step prayer.

02:06:36 --> 02:06:39

Some people right away, they learn they take shahada, they want to

02:06:39 --> 02:06:43

take action right away, which is good. Action breeds faith. So the

02:06:43 --> 02:06:46

next thing you're going to focus on is the prayer. It's not

02:06:46 --> 02:06:49

reasonable or fathomable that you have to learn prayer and fasting

02:06:49 --> 02:06:52

all at the same time. We can't juggle by doing three balls at

02:06:52 --> 02:06:56

once due to first belief and prayer now, prayer you have to

02:06:56 --> 02:07:00

learn what is impure and remove it from your body before you pray.

02:07:00 --> 02:07:03

Then you learn have to learn how to make wudu then you have to

02:07:03 --> 02:07:06

learn the prayer times then you have to learn the prayer

02:07:06 --> 02:07:11

movements. And what's to be said in the prayer. What nullifies the

02:07:11 --> 02:07:13

prayer that may take you two months I have a video on it.

02:07:14 --> 02:07:17

Video Series Could you put the link please and maybe even show

02:07:17 --> 02:07:18

the picture of the video series.

02:07:19 --> 02:07:21

I was working overtime today

02:07:23 --> 02:07:27

after that, you learn the fast you learn how to fast after that.

02:07:28 --> 02:07:32

Okay, and then later on now let's say he became Muslim on the 15th

02:07:32 --> 02:07:33

Ramadan

02:07:34 --> 02:07:37

and for the first 15 days Hey guys I'm a brand new Muslim I don't

02:07:37 --> 02:07:40

even know anything so he didn't fast we don't hold who beheld

02:07:40 --> 02:07:43

sinful because the Prophet clearly set first

02:07:44 --> 02:07:49

how to pray then how to fast go to the playlist to the How to Pray

02:07:49 --> 02:07:52

playlist click on that note the playlist itself

02:07:53 --> 02:07:57

yeah yeah click on the title on the right yeah click on that. Oh,

02:07:57 --> 02:08:01

it's the same thing okay. So you can see it all right there how to

02:08:01 --> 02:08:03

pray it's not reasonable or

02:08:05 --> 02:08:06

expectation there you go.

02:08:07 --> 02:08:10

To say he's got to be praying faster us your sinful How is

02:08:10 --> 02:08:14

practically not possible. Give the person a chance to learn how to

02:08:14 --> 02:08:19

pray. After he prays you learn how to fast later on when he becomes

02:08:19 --> 02:08:24

very strong in his religion then he makes up those days as one not

02:08:24 --> 02:08:27

a cuff photo because there's a difference between I missed the

02:08:27 --> 02:08:31

fast I have to make it up for a valid excuse I have to make it up

02:08:31 --> 02:08:35

and I blatantly broke the fast blatantly disrespected the month

02:08:35 --> 02:08:38

of Ramadan when you blatantly break the month of Ramadan then

02:08:38 --> 02:08:39

you owe a very heavy penalty.

02:08:41 --> 02:08:43

But when you're like hold on guys, I'm a new Muslim I don't even know

02:08:43 --> 02:08:47

anything. I don't even know how to pray. So that person is not

02:08:47 --> 02:08:51

blatantly breaking the fast therefore later on when he becomes

02:08:51 --> 02:08:53

strong in Islam he makes mixed his days up.

02:08:55 --> 02:08:59

Okay, makes up those days. So even I was listening to mark Lamont

02:08:59 --> 02:09:04

Hill have had a very good podcast on Shaun King becoming Muslim.

02:09:06 --> 02:09:08

And he said and he basically came to the same conclusion I did.

02:09:10 --> 02:09:13

But he also said that hold on a second. He Shaun King became

02:09:13 --> 02:09:17

Muslim on the first on the eve of Ramadan, like the first night of

02:09:17 --> 02:09:20

Ramadan that shows his commitment because now he has to fast the

02:09:20 --> 02:09:25

whole month but that's not exactly true. Right? Yes, it will be

02:09:26 --> 02:09:27

it will be

02:09:29 --> 02:09:33

the he is liable to fast those months but he can make them up

02:09:33 --> 02:09:36

because he's a brand new Muslim. He does not even know how to pray.

02:09:36 --> 02:09:40

We have a new another convert here it looks like Snoop Dogg steps on

02:09:40 --> 02:09:40

or somebody

02:09:41 --> 02:09:44

I don't know anything about these rappers? Click it.

02:09:46 --> 02:09:49

Show who this person is and he accepted Shahada.

02:09:52 --> 02:09:54

I don't know anything about this rapper.

02:09:56 --> 02:09:59

Click the video let people put it next to me. Yeah, like that.

02:10:00 --> 02:10:03

That's actually good news, YouTube and Allah Subhana Allah keep in

02:10:03 --> 02:10:07

firm upon the TAT of his obedience for the rest of his life. All

02:10:07 --> 02:10:11

right, brother John. So to become a Muslim, you're going to take the

02:10:11 --> 02:10:14

testimony of faith in sha Allah. So that means you're going to

02:10:14 --> 02:10:18

testify that there is no one worthy of worship except Allah

02:10:18 --> 02:10:21

alone without any partner. And you're going to testify that the

02:10:21 --> 02:10:25

Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him is the servant and the final

02:10:25 --> 02:10:28

messenger of Allah. Are you ready to do this in Shama? All right, so

02:10:28 --> 02:10:32

we're going to say it in Arabic trust you repeat after me. Then

02:10:32 --> 02:10:34

we'll say it in English as well. Alright. To repeat after me.

02:10:42 --> 02:10:45

Okay, how do I do

02:10:47 --> 02:10:48

ilaha

02:10:49 --> 02:10:53

illa. Allah was the

02:10:54 --> 02:10:55

last shedding.

02:10:57 --> 02:10:57

I love

02:10:58 --> 02:11:00

what Ash has done.

02:11:03 --> 02:11:05

Mohammed, Mohammed,

02:11:06 --> 02:11:06

who

02:11:08 --> 02:11:09

was who?

02:11:10 --> 02:11:15

I testify, is there because good no one hears no one worthy of

02:11:15 --> 02:11:23

worship, except Allah alone alone without partner. And I testify

02:11:25 --> 02:11:29

that Muhammad is His servant. And final message. final message

02:11:29 --> 02:11:30

Allahu Akbar.

02:11:31 --> 02:11:31

Allah.

02:11:33 --> 02:11:36

Congratulations, Allah Subhanallah keep you on the path of his

02:11:36 --> 02:11:36

obedience.

02:11:37 --> 02:11:41

Where's he from? La Los Angeles as the king FETs mosque in Los

02:11:41 --> 02:11:46

Angeles and we're experiencing at this time in the Muslim American

02:11:46 --> 02:11:49

scene. What I did not say at Hulu, and if he didn't Allah, He Quadra.

02:11:50 --> 02:11:56

So it's maybe not masked, but it's like every day five to 510 people

02:11:56 --> 02:12:01

and very regularly, like highly visible people entering a slump. I

02:12:01 --> 02:12:03

mean, I don't know who this person is. But

02:12:05 --> 02:12:07

that really hits on which one?

02:12:09 --> 02:12:12

No, no, no, no that stuff. Maybe I heard it Yeah.

02:12:18 --> 02:12:19

And it's a big deal, huh?

02:12:20 --> 02:12:20

Jeep?

02:12:22 --> 02:12:23

Jeep.

02:12:25 --> 02:12:25

I can hear it.

02:12:28 --> 02:12:31

Excelsior asks a good question. If I have a disease where I smell

02:12:31 --> 02:12:36

very bad. Can I am I exempt from praying in the mosque because

02:12:36 --> 02:12:39

people are upset at my smell? The answer is yes. That's discussed in

02:12:39 --> 02:12:39

the books

02:12:41 --> 02:12:45

of when is someone exempt from Joomla? Okay, so yes, you are

02:12:45 --> 02:12:49

exempt from Joomla and from the other obligations in the mosques.

02:12:50 --> 02:12:55

What do you recommend reading with teenagers? I would read all the

02:12:55 --> 02:13:00

Sierra books the books of Imam and had dead the remembrance of death

02:13:00 --> 02:13:04

and afterlife. The story is of all the prophets. I would read that

02:13:04 --> 02:13:04

with them.

02:13:06 --> 02:13:11

For two books are excellent for to look up for two for two words like

02:13:12 --> 02:13:16

yeah, to be like a noble a nobleman, basically. What makes

02:13:16 --> 02:13:20

Berson noble character? Can I volunteer at the soup kitchen

02:13:20 --> 02:13:26

during Ramadan that feeds homeless people during the day? Yes, you

02:13:26 --> 02:13:30

can. Yes, you can. And even if a Muslim shows up, you can assume

02:13:30 --> 02:13:31

he's traveling or sick.

02:13:33 --> 02:13:36

How do we combat the argument of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

02:13:36 --> 02:13:41

sallam marrying say that she was six years old. Okay, but this is

02:13:41 --> 02:13:42

what's stopping them.

02:13:43 --> 02:13:48

You say look, who knows best god? Are you

02:13:49 --> 02:13:56

If Allah if the Creator ordained something, it's good. Simple as

02:13:56 --> 02:13:59

that. Our level of disgust means nothing. Right?

02:14:00 --> 02:14:05

Our sentiments about something don't mean anything. So if you

02:14:05 --> 02:14:09

believe in God, but i Yes, I believe in God. But okay. God can

02:14:09 --> 02:14:13

do this. Simple as that. Right? You believe in hellfire, right?

02:14:16 --> 02:14:22

Is in hellfire really bad? Right? So you accept that? So Allah to

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

Allah

02:14:23 --> 02:14:29

has, he has ordained things that are beyond our sentiments? So

02:14:30 --> 02:14:34

Allah first our sentiments second, and if Allah tells you, there's a

02:14:34 --> 02:14:37

verse of Quran says If Allah told you to kill yourself will be good

02:14:37 --> 02:14:41

for you. The moment God says something, it becomes good. It was

02:14:41 --> 02:14:44

bad before it becomes good No. And the moment he forbid something

02:14:44 --> 02:14:47

becomes bad, Moses marry two sisters.

02:14:48 --> 02:14:50

Allah came in the Quran forbade that.

02:14:52 --> 02:14:57

It became bad, it was good to became bad. Just like that. It was

02:14:57 --> 02:14:59

something people look at as wholesome now people look at it

02:14:59 --> 02:14:59

with disgust.

02:15:00 --> 02:15:05

The first generation How about this sister? The first generation,

02:15:06 --> 02:15:08

Adam and Eve's kids, how did they marry?

02:15:09 --> 02:15:13

They married each other. Right? You were born with a with a twin

02:15:13 --> 02:15:17

male and female. Eve had 20 pregnancies, and each pregnancy

02:15:17 --> 02:15:18

was a male and a female.

02:15:22 --> 02:15:23

A male and a female.

02:15:25 --> 02:15:29

You couldn't marry your twin, you and Adam would arrange the

02:15:29 --> 02:15:34

marriages. And I don't know how they went. But Adam is the willie

02:15:34 --> 02:15:37

of all the women, right? Anyway, in the first place.

02:15:39 --> 02:15:43

You had to take his permission to marry one of your sisters, and you

02:15:43 --> 02:15:47

married her. And that man felt attracted to that woman. He felt

02:15:47 --> 02:15:50

but he didn't feel attracted to his twin he disgusted from the

02:15:50 --> 02:15:55

concept, right? Just like you can have an attractive relative, let's

02:15:55 --> 02:15:59

say a daughter, a niece, and aunt. And you could admit that she's

02:15:59 --> 02:16:02

attractive, but you have no feeling towards her. That's Allah

02:16:02 --> 02:16:06

created you like that, right? Think about this amazing. Allah

02:16:06 --> 02:16:09

just created you there is no sexual desire at all for this

02:16:09 --> 02:16:11

person. Never will happen even though if they're the most

02:16:11 --> 02:16:15

attractive person. This is if your fits into your net natural

02:16:15 --> 02:16:17

creation is still intact.

02:16:19 --> 02:16:24

Right? Just by virtue of that. So likewise, they were disgusted by

02:16:24 --> 02:16:27

their twin. They would never come near their twin, but they could

02:16:27 --> 02:16:28

marry their other siblings.

02:16:31 --> 02:16:36

And then Abel, and Cain had the fallout, and that reduced the

02:16:36 --> 02:16:42

number of men to what? To 19 Men No. So there's 20 women and 19

02:16:42 --> 02:16:46

men. So that's a problem now. So what happened?

02:16:48 --> 02:16:51

How we had the last and final baby, and that was who the Prophet

02:16:51 --> 02:16:57

Seth sheath. So sheath was born alone, and he was a prophet.

02:16:59 --> 02:17:04

Not by HML, Ishmael is complete consensus. But it's not by HML

02:17:05 --> 02:17:09

that he was a prophet. And she completed the number of males 20

02:17:09 --> 02:17:12

males, 20 females, you can't marry your twin, you have an option of

02:17:12 --> 02:17:14

19 other women to marry.

02:17:17 --> 02:17:18

It's actually interesting, like

02:17:19 --> 02:17:23

that point about how like, the Quran has so many things like,

02:17:23 --> 02:17:25

like about torture, for example? Yeah. Which is like, if you look

02:17:25 --> 02:17:28

at it from the, you know, the moral paradigms that these people

02:17:28 --> 02:17:31

operate on, that should be way worse. Right, then they made an

02:17:31 --> 02:17:37

ISO or the one. Yeah, but what it really shows is, it's outlining

02:17:37 --> 02:17:39

their philosophy, which is the idea of consent being like above

02:17:39 --> 02:17:43

anything, exactly. What is consent representative? It's representing

02:17:43 --> 02:17:46

the human freedom. Yeah. Humans have an issue with that, because

02:17:46 --> 02:17:48

single she couldn't consent. But then they don't have an issue with

02:17:48 --> 02:17:52

like hellfire and people being tortured, and killed. But then

02:17:52 --> 02:17:55

again, in first grade, you can consent these days to being a guy.

02:17:56 --> 02:17:57

If you're a girl.

02:17:58 --> 02:18:02

And you can and you can they have to respect it. Right. But wait,

02:18:02 --> 02:18:05

she can't marry. But you can like the point is like, you can trace

02:18:05 --> 02:18:07

all this back. Yeah, it's interesting to think about.

02:18:08 --> 02:18:10

everything adds up.

02:18:11 --> 02:18:16

Can I can I be thankful for something? If I'm not sure it is

02:18:16 --> 02:18:16

halal?

02:18:18 --> 02:18:22

Well, depends if there's action upon it, for example. For example,

02:18:22 --> 02:18:25

if I get money in the mail, someone leaves me wad of cash in

02:18:25 --> 02:18:28

the mail. That's hard for me to take. It's a gift from an

02:18:28 --> 02:18:32

anonymous source, right? I don't have to say, oh, maybe it was drug

02:18:32 --> 02:18:35

money. Maybe someone's got written getting rid of money, right? We

02:18:35 --> 02:18:39

don't know that. Right? If I inherit money from somebody.

02:18:42 --> 02:18:44

I don't have to ask what your job was.

02:18:45 --> 02:18:48

If it's food, I have to be sure that it's headed before I eat. I

02:18:48 --> 02:18:53

can't if someone puts a hamburger in my, in my mailbox, or in front

02:18:53 --> 02:18:57

of my doors. It's anonymous gifts. I'm not eating it. Unless it says

02:18:57 --> 02:19:01

you know, Hala restaurant on it. Even that's probably dubious.

02:19:04 --> 02:19:11

If a woman dreams of taking the hands of a shake, can it be a true

02:19:11 --> 02:19:16

dream? What should he apply? Should I take bear with that

02:19:16 --> 02:19:17

shape?

02:19:18 --> 02:19:23

Look, I can't tell you to do that or not. But you can investigate

02:19:23 --> 02:19:29

with your worldly, your wakeful state apparatus that you possess

02:19:29 --> 02:19:32

your hands. I mean, your your ability to read, to listen to

02:19:32 --> 02:19:35

examine, to ask and make a decision that way. Whether you

02:19:35 --> 02:19:36

want to follow that scholar or not.

02:19:43 --> 02:19:48

Adam and 70 is saying that the ham story is in interpretation of the

02:19:48 --> 02:19:51

Old Testament. So it's not even the Bible itself.

02:19:56 --> 02:20:00

What is the proof? What level of proof is necessary?

02:20:00 --> 02:20:04

All right to prove your from a little bait. Are there benefits in

02:20:04 --> 02:20:05

being from edit bait?

02:20:06 --> 02:20:11

Okay, as a convert who married in Yes, the Prophet peace be upon him

02:20:11 --> 02:20:16

said that on the day of judgment, He will intercede, everyone will

02:20:16 --> 02:20:19

want to intercede for his family and he will do so interested for

02:20:19 --> 02:20:21

his family and those who married into his family

02:20:22 --> 02:20:24

as long as they died upon Islam

02:20:31 --> 02:20:35

the same people that were throwing shade at entertains conversion are

02:20:35 --> 02:20:37

the same people throwing shade Shaun king

02:20:38 --> 02:20:42

and he said basically the feminists wait feminists thought

02:20:42 --> 02:20:43

they would like shown kink.

02:20:44 --> 02:20:47

Yeah, cuz he's more on the left side leaning side.

02:20:48 --> 02:20:51

Now hopefully there'll be none of that. It could be left leaning a

02:20:51 --> 02:20:54

little right leaning a little bit within the Sharia. within Islam,

02:20:54 --> 02:20:57

that's all fine and good. Anyone in the activist world is gonna

02:20:57 --> 02:21:01

check listening. Crowds. Yeah. But why are some of the activists

02:21:01 --> 02:21:05

crowd attacking Shaun King? See, I don't know the politics behind it.

02:21:06 --> 02:21:10

If I'm in a state of impurity, and I wake up after fetch, can I fast?

02:21:10 --> 02:21:13

Yes. Let's say a man has a wet dream or he sleeps with his wife

02:21:13 --> 02:21:18

and he doesn't take over. He's in a state of ritual impurity has

02:21:18 --> 02:21:20

nothing to do with fasting. You continue to fast.

02:21:21 --> 02:21:26

You have so hold even you have your pre pre Dawn meal.

02:21:27 --> 02:21:31

Then then a fedrick goes off. Then you go take a shower. No problem

02:21:31 --> 02:21:32

and you own nothing.

02:21:36 --> 02:21:39

Amir SIL, you skipped my question. Okay, let's go back to Amir SIL.

02:21:40 --> 02:21:43

And let's say that'll be a well wind down at that we had a great

02:21:43 --> 02:21:47

stream today mashallah had a nice interview. We talked about some

02:21:47 --> 02:21:49

fic of niqab. We read some FIP

02:21:53 --> 02:21:58

Amir still says I'm scared to recite the word to lock in the

02:21:58 --> 02:22:01

Quran because I'm afraid I will divorce my wife is this was West.

02:22:01 --> 02:22:05

Yes, this was was if the word Talaq comes in a book,

02:22:06 --> 02:22:09

or you're giving an example, has nothing to do with tila.

02:22:10 --> 02:22:13

Tequila counts. If you actually tell your wife I've divorced you.

02:22:16 --> 02:22:18

Is there a Dota and team this year? I believe there's a Dota

02:22:18 --> 02:22:20

every year now in the summer and the winter too.

02:22:24 --> 02:22:29

If you die without a will, is it a sin? It's not a sin? No. Let's say

02:22:29 --> 02:22:30

a man. He

02:22:33 --> 02:22:39

needed to take a shower, full body wash, which is taken after sexual

02:22:39 --> 02:22:45

* or release of * or even just * without

02:22:45 --> 02:22:50

climaxing. All that requires us requires it. Otherwise, you can't

02:22:50 --> 02:22:55

pray and you can't enter a mosque. So a person dies before taking

02:22:55 --> 02:22:59

notice. That doesn't mean he's cursed. It doesn't mean he's

02:23:01 --> 02:23:03

sinful enough. Nothing like that. But it's Oh, it's not good to

02:23:03 --> 02:23:05

delay those for no reason.

02:23:06 --> 02:23:09

What about praying said Allah

02:23:10 --> 02:23:15

just go to Safina society.org/sedal as a de l. And

02:23:15 --> 02:23:16

I'll give you all the proofs

02:23:17 --> 02:23:22

that all the Imams, all the schools of thought have clasping

02:23:22 --> 02:23:24

the hands in the prayer and praying with the arms down, but

02:23:24 --> 02:23:28

they have it at different levels. The three schools hold it as the

02:23:28 --> 02:23:30

prayer is valid with the arms down

02:23:31 --> 02:23:33

and you're missing a minor virtue.

02:23:35 --> 02:23:40

In the Maliki school, the arms down is the Sunnah in the

02:23:40 --> 02:23:41

obligatory prayer.

02:23:43 --> 02:23:47

And clasping the hands is permissible in the recommended

02:23:47 --> 02:23:50

prayer. That's it, it's not even a big deal. It's a big deal because

02:23:50 --> 02:23:54

it's so visible. But as a matter of scholarship, it's literally a

02:23:54 --> 02:23:57

non issue. There's not a single method that says your prayer is

02:23:57 --> 02:24:00

invalid based on how you hold your hands up or down. None of them.

02:24:06 --> 02:24:09

When someone converts to Islam, should they take Mosul? Yes, they

02:24:09 --> 02:24:14

should. As a wreck, it doesn't. It's not connected to their

02:24:14 --> 02:24:17

conversion, though. This is the important point. Someone who

02:24:17 --> 02:24:20

entered Islam. Now previously, they had had a * or

02:24:20 --> 02:24:23

something they were or menstruation or they were mature

02:24:23 --> 02:24:27

basically, in something that would have required a full body wash. So

02:24:28 --> 02:24:32

they have to go do that. Now. However, it's not like a condition

02:24:32 --> 02:24:33

of their entering Islam.

02:24:34 --> 02:24:39

You enter Islam, right? As soon as you can you take a full body wash

02:24:39 --> 02:24:43

that purifies you from the state of Genova that you were in from

02:24:43 --> 02:24:43

before.

02:24:46 --> 02:24:50

So the question like, yeah, how do you remember one time, one of the

02:24:50 --> 02:24:54

brothers he took the shahada and the way we worded it was like, oh,

02:24:54 --> 02:24:57

you know, go home, pray to God for guidance, and he took a shot that

02:24:57 --> 02:24:59

we were saying, you know, thank God for guidance and for

02:25:00 --> 02:25:03

We want you to do is go take a bath to purify yourself. Like we

02:25:03 --> 02:25:07

just waited. The poor guy went and filled the tub. No like, go take a

02:25:07 --> 02:25:11

shower like shower. That's like not bath but shower or shall I say

02:25:11 --> 02:25:15

okay, like Yeah. Okay, that's good enough. And just to kind of kind

02:25:15 --> 02:25:18

of get him to take a listen without telling him like yesterday

02:25:18 --> 02:25:21

Felicity Oh, you do need to tell him it's an intention with the

02:25:21 --> 02:25:24

intention of purifying yourself. Not in the Hanafi school.

02:25:27 --> 02:25:30

No, you're right. You're right. You got me on that with He said

02:25:30 --> 02:25:31

not in the Hanafi school.

02:25:32 --> 02:25:33

Yeah, so

02:25:35 --> 02:25:40

tell us he's matassa that's it. He's, that's the way to do it. Or

02:25:40 --> 02:25:44

is there a better way to get them to do listen, like? I mean, if you

02:25:44 --> 02:25:48

think it's hard, because he's just taking a shower. No, I'm saying

02:25:48 --> 02:25:51

like, getting him to take the shower. Like tell him it's an

02:25:51 --> 02:25:53

obligation. You gotta go take a shower. He just changed his whole

02:25:53 --> 02:25:57

religion. The shower is that easy for right? Yeah, I will just tell

02:25:57 --> 02:26:01

you, you gotta go home, take a shower. Take a full shower. And

02:26:01 --> 02:26:04

you could say nice words like oh, it symbolizes your new beginning

02:26:04 --> 02:26:09

and all that. And also it purifies you from the fast yeah, see?

02:26:10 --> 02:26:12

Subhanallah he's thinking in the Hanafi mentality that the

02:26:12 --> 02:26:16

intention is not needed for for will to animals on the desk in my

02:26:16 --> 02:26:16

mind

02:26:23 --> 02:26:24

is it necessary

02:26:27 --> 02:26:33

to pray 1/3 Or half the night for it to count as pMLN No, not at

02:26:33 --> 02:26:36

all. Any amount of ruckus is enough.

02:26:38 --> 02:26:40

If someone missed a lot because they forgot and they fell asleep,

02:26:40 --> 02:26:44

is it sinful to not make it up is immediately as you remember. Yes.

02:26:44 --> 02:26:45

delaying it beyond what is

02:26:50 --> 02:26:54

delaying it beyond for no reason. Yeah. Becomes you enter into

02:26:54 --> 02:26:58

discouragement and even sinfulness but delaying it for a valid

02:26:58 --> 02:27:04

reason. That's Jhala will not be sinful. And Neff is zero is the

02:27:04 --> 02:27:09

feast hearsay and there we go with the beyond the river again. Yep.

02:27:09 --> 02:27:10

Nope.

02:27:13 --> 02:27:17

Do the Medicaid have to rub the body in the muscle? Yes, you have

02:27:17 --> 02:27:19

to rub your body not just pour water.

02:27:24 --> 02:27:28

How is it that Moroccan and Algerian women used to wear face

02:27:28 --> 02:27:34

veils? Yeah, it's mentioned we just actually read it. It didn't

02:27:34 --> 02:27:37

mentioned it. He mentioned out in Morocco and Algeria. There's a

02:27:37 --> 02:27:39

customer of women they all cover their faces.

02:27:40 --> 02:27:43

Where did the custom from? How did it come from? Was it religious?

02:27:43 --> 02:27:46

Allah Allah doesn't matter. But the answer is that

02:27:48 --> 02:27:53

the answer for that is that covering the face, if it's a

02:27:53 --> 02:27:54

customer of the people is permitted.

02:27:56 --> 02:27:58

And it was a customer people even in Europe, Queens never came out

02:27:58 --> 02:27:59

without a face Phil.

02:28:01 --> 02:28:04

Princess never came out without a face veil. So yeah, then she can

02:28:04 --> 02:28:08

wear it. But if she's doing it believing it's a necessity in

02:28:08 --> 02:28:15

religion, then that's a lulu 15 Not acceptable and discouraged.

02:28:15 --> 02:28:19

We're not even gonna say sinful, just discouraged. But dama crua

02:28:22 --> 02:28:22

Okay

02:28:29 --> 02:28:30

last question.

02:28:32 --> 02:28:35

Our next Avandia Kadri on orthodox are they orthodox study because

02:28:35 --> 02:28:38

there's so many branches you have to assess the actual scholar that

02:28:38 --> 02:28:39

you're planning to be under.

02:28:42 --> 02:28:46

And be very careful with this. Where do you get miswak in New

02:28:46 --> 02:28:50

Brunswick, probably any of the hull stores on route 27 Go to

02:28:50 --> 02:28:55

route 27 keep going you head into from North Brunswick to set to

02:28:55 --> 02:28:59

south to Franklin Park to South Brunswick to Kenzo park all

02:28:59 --> 02:29:01

there's a lot of Hillel stores they all should have miswak

02:29:04 --> 02:29:08

this cryptocurrency Khaled it depends on which currency and it

02:29:08 --> 02:29:09

depends if

02:29:13 --> 02:29:15

it's really depends, because

02:29:19 --> 02:29:23

there have been scams before. Like who so in this in the sense that

02:29:23 --> 02:29:25

if you don't know what you're getting, you're not allowed to go

02:29:25 --> 02:29:26

into that business.

02:29:27 --> 02:29:29

What was that guy called? NTF or whatever

02:29:31 --> 02:29:35

it is. Yeah. What is this? What was his cryptocurrency school?

02:29:37 --> 02:29:38

Yeah, thanks shamers I'm like

02:29:42 --> 02:29:46

any advice for people who are diabetic and can't fast to gain

02:29:46 --> 02:29:49

spiritual benefits of Ramadan? Yeah, do the things that fasting

02:29:49 --> 02:29:52

people can't do like help serve the if thought helped prepare the

02:29:52 --> 02:29:55

Iftar things like that help do the things that fasting people can't

02:29:55 --> 02:29:56

do.

02:29:58 --> 02:30:00

What if he had a dream but the prof

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

It looks a little different than how he's described. That just

02:30:02 --> 02:30:07

means that the dreamer himself is not perfected in his vision. And

02:30:07 --> 02:30:08

Allah knows best

02:30:12 --> 02:30:15

yep, I just answered that one. My grandmother used to cover her face

02:30:15 --> 02:30:18

just last 15 years ago Morocco. Allah bless her soul

02:30:20 --> 02:30:23

Yeah, it was either an all Morocco or probably all of Egypt's

02:30:23 --> 02:30:24

everywhere

02:30:29 --> 02:30:29

ladies and gentlemen,

02:30:31 --> 02:30:34

we will stop here to Xochimilco let's get to the final count of

02:30:34 --> 02:30:35

how we did on launch.

02:30:39 --> 02:30:40

The final count for the day

02:30:47 --> 02:30:49

just launched good.com/live inside

02:30:53 --> 02:30:58

per second in the bar. There you go. All right, final count for the

02:30:58 --> 02:31:04
