			Where did he go? Well, under Ashateek Al
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			Akrabin, when he was commanded to warn his
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			family, he went to Safa. Why? Because Safa
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			is, you know, the CNN or Joe Rogan
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			or whatever of his time.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			The best way to reach people is to
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			Mark Lamont Hill. Whatever you listen to, whatever
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			you watch, he utilizes the best way to
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			spread the message. I remember some years ago
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			when I first embraced Islam,
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			there was a man who came to the
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			mosque to give a speech,
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			and I was, like, cleaning and serving the
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			masjid. I was young. I had a job.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			And so I brought, like, the microphone to
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			me. He's like, microphones are.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			Like, microphones are not allowed. This is heterodoxy.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			I was like, a microphone? Like, what kind
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			of religion? I was a new Muslim. Like,
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			what kind of religion is this man? Like,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			microphones are heterodoxy?
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			Like, what what guy not? I didn't learn
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			about this in the welcome to Islam class,
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			you know. And he was like, you know,
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			we just yell really loud.
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:55
			And they're like,
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			stop, man. Allah. I'm not even trying to
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			be funny, but it is funny. He is
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			like, Allah will put in our voice, and
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			it will spread,
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			like, all across Oklahoma.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			Right?
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			So I was like, I'm gonna ask my
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			mom when I go home
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			if she heard you.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			But that kind of attitude is not something
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			that we find.
