yeah,
Muslim on Muslim. Does he know what Muslim means as does not she
Muslim? Man, yeah,

God's will, right? Yes,

much.
Yeah, those repeated.
So,
yeah, interview number said
that interview it was paid to
put it out like this. He swears he would, he would never say
something like that. Do you have any questions that or
misconceptions about Islam or Muslims that you can ask and maybe
that can remove some of the negative thoughts that you might
have, forget about, forget about,
pretend like nothing ever happened, as far as war or
anything, we're just talking purely, you know, from a religious
standpoint, or Islam, where people repeat that the not just about
attitude Islam
was now, I know about Islam. He knows about Islamic. Oh, that's
an, yeah,
does he
know what la
ELA I Mohammed Rasulullah, did he ever hear this? Does he know what
it
means?
Knock Asmaa. Does he know that during the time of Jesus, they
would say, La Ilaha, illallah, Isa Rasulullah.
Then, did he hear it?
Did he Did he understand that? Yes, yeah, this does he when he
hears the ad? Does he know what that means? It's not the lesson
says, Not true. There's not too rich, does not Alan Alam, yeah.
Oceanic.
Alimah,
oh,
the mosque, yeah. You.
Thank you.
Thank you does um, so, When? When? When you hear these things, like,
you know? When? When that Allahu Akbar? Allahu Akbar means God is
the Greatest. God is the Great. Did you know it means that? Yes,
it was no, does not show it, but does not sheboy, yeah, yeah.
Pet, Evana,
udana castle. Yeah, five times in the day when to pray to God. Yeah,
that's like in the church. When you say, hallelujah. You know
hallelujah?
This hallelujah, yes.
Did you know that in the Gospel of Matthew, 2639,
that it says Jesus. And he went a little further, and he fell on his
face, and he prayed to God, dama will be believed, because today is
not cheap. Oh, no, it's a molius above yesterday. That's how we
pray.
Joey Molly, oh, as a human he he prayed, yeah.
Simile about two years
that my Muslim man
bunisara,
my Muslims here are complaining about the Arabs
Muslim, they
pray differently to God than the Muslims here. Yeah. But what do
you think about when Jesus, then when he fell on his face and
prayed to God? How we do the same way? That's another similarity I'm
showing just these are just similarity, commonality, which
must transfer on out when we say As salamu, alaykum, Jesus said,
shalamu, peace. Be with you, some of
us.
Edition, yeah, what do you think an Aramaic? Aramaic, right?
Samo sello, yeah, Mister musili, Gober, italias, yeah,
you know how an Aramaic God is called
Allah, means a book allah in Hebrew. Hello, no, Hebrews come
along, Arabic, Allah,
according Asmaa, there is a root in all the languages.
I'm just showing these similarities because we there is
so much now that you can see that brings people together, rather
separating us the Buddha mobility and Ali, did you? Did he know that
in the Quran, there's a whole chapter named after the Blessed
Mother of Jesus called median,
yeah. Maria, did he ever read the Quran history? It
was some, but some
moist to the military.
The Leo called poker as a gift. Oh, he was giving Qurans as a
gift. Yeah. Do
you believe in destiny? Do
you think we're here by destiny? Obviously today should be not
shrill. Swami
Joshua,
provisions

will
probably
change, yeah, which
not your regional
it's everything that is already decided by God's will. Ali bogdish
and on sleep would die. God is giving the picture, and
God is there any questions that anything about Islam, there
anything that that while we're here that we can answer, or
anything that you might have that Islam illness, and can I and then
can I give him a gift? Yeah, I'm not
here. This is mujiza
Mega tea. It's nice for my library. Yeah,
I want to thank you for sitting with us
now interview, and I would like to continue that legacy that all the
prophets brought
of us working together to collaborate with our neighbors in
goodness and each other preach a million drugs to start these
communications. Because people can,
you would money? Could me? Maybe dorsal, you? Believing people war
would
never say who that politici the root of the evil,
moly,
mazamir too, but the devil is here. Ago,

Oh,

swaka, swaki, Jamaat, broi deity that ah, oh, the wood Turkey
bureau.
Yes, every GEMA is two 3000 people, but the church came about
200 narciotti,
yeah, custody. Johnny deal, remember the bill? Yes, you can
talk about you, yeah. So thank you very much. And I would, I would
like to see these doors open, and Inshallah, you can
help us to start this good work. Follow them sister preachers. And
I would also, I would sincerely, humbly, I would request that you
look more into the life of the last and final messenger sent to
mankind, Prophet Muhammad, who came with the same message as
Jesus, calling people to La ELAHE Allah. There's nothing worthy
worship but the one God, and Muhammad is the messenger. I would
maybe
look a baby malusani Come Mohammed stochasis by
in the Quran, there are 560
from the passage from the Bible. Like when Moses came, he said,
Hero Israel, the LORD thy God is one. Jesus came
with the same message here.
That's why you'll see the same thing in Quran, because it's
coming from the same
source. Yeah. So
Islam, yeah,
Christians,
monolith, Islam. Christianity is monotheism. Is that car?
Then
we start outside, and there are roots in the Old Testament.
So we would say, if you had the Old Testament, New Testament, the
Quran is the last and final Testament story on It is Quran
posted
me the two cars in the
I believe, and I don't believe, that Muhammad is the messenger. Do
you believe that no one should be worshiped except the one God
alone, without partners? Yeah, yes. And if we, if
you, if you can confirm that Muhammad is the Messenger, then
you would be fulfilling what God Almighty wants all of us to
fulfill in This life,
some without partners, Muhammad, just like Jesus Abraham
Moise
on style for tribal
men.
Are monotheism.
He Muhammad,
abrato is, I can argue, to the presidency Abraham wanted to
sacrifice
Isaac over this is evolution later. What came to it all,
no problem or the permanent some of the supposinity. Abra visa,
how does
he
think
about the first commandment in the Bible, it says, Thou shalt have no
other gods except one God. Thou shall not worship anything in
the heavens and the
earth. Clear. Only worship one
God. I'm not
again. Thank you so much.
So we just finished
the short little talk and interview with the head priest
here, Serbian
priest. How do you think that went?
He says he worships only one God. He was friendly to us, not what we
may have expected to be, you know, insulted. He didn't think we came
here to insult him, yeah, to provoke him. So we had a nice
conversation, friendly conversation, yeah, I was making
the example like because there's a lot of tension in this area, some
people from Bosnians or from Muslims around these parts, you
think some people are going to get really angry that we came here,
that we sat with someone who's a known Chetnik. And some people
will say that this person you know, probably being a commander
in this genocide that happened killed so many people, and then
why are you guys sitting with him? Do you think there's going to be
some of that resentment? I think there will. I think there will be
there's always people who think this way. There's always people
who think in the nationalism mindset. You, you don't go talk to
these people. He he hates Muslims. He killed Muslims, and you have no
business talking to these people, calling them to Islam. Now,
anybody who has, I gave an example, if you had to work at a
factory. We talked about that yesterday. If you had to work at a
factory and there was Serbs working there, chutneys working
there, you had to earn your livelihood. You think they would
work in that factory? Yes. I mean, they'd be professional about it.
Be professional. You have your job, you have your paycheck. So
you gotta work with these people, yeah,
but we have to be beyond professionalism when it comes to
this, deen and sharing the message. This is what Allah the
Creator told us to do. Yes, and it's not up to us to choose who's
gonna submit to God or who's not. Yeah, submitting who's not
supposed to submit to God. It's not up to us to choose, and it's
not up to us who we're going to choose to deliver the message to
or not. No, that's we have as the Prophet Muhammad Ali Salam had to
deliver the message. Who's going to follow the message? Who's going
to submit to God? That's Allah SWT, and our job is to deliver the
message to whomever. One thing that came to mind, because we know
that Allah is a Rahman Ibrahim. And there was the man who killed
99 you know the story of the man who killed 99 people. And then he
went to the monk, and he said, because now it was eating him
away. And he went there and said, Is there any mercy for me? What do
I do? He said, What? You killed 99 people. And then he told them. He
said, you know, hey, you're done. There's, there's no hope for you.
He killed him too. Now he killed 100 then he went to a learned man,
and that learned man gave him the proper advice. He told him to
leave this area. And obviously he told him about turning to his
creator, alone with all the societies, and turning to the one
God. And then he went, and on his way, he died. And then he was
actually closer to the place he had just left. But then the angels
came, and they asked, Where should we put this person? Because the
angel of punishment came to the angels of mercy, and then Allah
made it that his way, because he said, wherever he was closer to
that's where he'll go. Now imagine this person killed 100 people, but
he turned away from setting apartment.
Is with Allah away from the evil. He came and he repented, and then
Allah made the way that he was going towards closer, and he
admitted him to Jannah, yes. And this is a perfect example for this
that we should do. Call everybody
to Islam, to Allah, to submit to Allah. So as I said, it's not up
to us to choose who is good for it or not, yeah. So I think we did
our part. We told him about La ilaha illallah, yes. We told him
about the last and final messenger sent to mankind, the Prophet
Muhammad, which he said he does and does not believe. Yeah, so
it's a step closer, yeah. And we shared some of the commonalities
there, and we did our part. Inshallah, the people, if he
doesn't accept, the people that are watching the Serbs and others
who are tuning in, who have a problem with this trinity, who
doesn't make sense. They're also doing things in life that's not
bringing them peace, solace and contentment. They're searching for
purpose. Inshallah, this can be a means that can help them to
overcome that nationalism and to not see Muslims as the other and
all the other things that they're programmed to believe. And maybe
they can come to the purpose of life, the true purpose of life, of
only worshiping the One God alone, doing good deeds, being morally
upright. And this can be a means for them, yes, and also an example
that we can come here to the Serbian part and openly talk. We
came here to the church, which everybody would think it was it
was dangerous. I myself thought it would be dangerous, but we had a
nice conversation. Yeah.
Thank you guys here in Republika Srpska in Bosnia, salaam, Alaikum,
Salam.
