It's an Al carefully. The true sign of love of God and Prophet is
that anyone who offends them offends you that you find it
offensive. And in our culture, we're very good at finding stuff
offensive.
Right? So nobody should have a problem with that from the secular
perspective. While we were offended every day, every hour,
there's a new thing that's offensive, right? The Star
Spangled Banner has become offensive. Right?
The flag has become offensive. The national anthem has become of
everything's offensive. So we're very good at being offensive. Why?
Because people that we love. And by the way, sometimes they have a
point, right? I mean, the Star Spangled Banner itself has some
offensive lines towards African slaves. But some of these so
called people are our people, and we love them. If it offends them.
It offends us right or wrong. So it is right to be offended
sometimes. If you offend someone that I love, you have offended me
right or wrong. So we share this collective offensiveness. So in
this sense, whoever offends Allah should naturally find you. That's
a sign of love.
