A speaker discusses the popularity of the Islamic satellite channel in the UK, which is also the largest popular Islam channel in the world. The speaker believes that the political move they described as a "monster" was a political and legal decision rather than a legal one, and that the Home Department of UK's request for the channel's removal was a political move rather than a legal one. The speaker also mentions that the Home Department's decision to reverse an order is expected to result in a ruling for the court of Appeal.

			And according to the Home Department of UK,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			when I had come in the year 2009,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			I was informed by lab resources that according
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			to the Home Department of UK, the most
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			popular Islamic satellite channel in the world is
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:17
			Peace TV and the most watched Islamic satellite
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			channel in UK is also Peace TV.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			Not only is it watched by Muslims, but
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			even watched by non-Muslims.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			The same report said that the most popular
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			Islamic speaker in the world is Dr Zakir
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			Naik and the most popular Islamic speaker in
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			UK is also Dr Naik.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			That's the reason the Home Department was requesting
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:37
			me that can I reach out to those
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			Muslims which the UK government cannot.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			But now because of the change of government,
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			what I feel it was more of a
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			political move rather than a legal move.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			And as maybe they wanted someone popular so
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			that they could pass the message that we
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			are tough against Muslims.
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			And that's the reason what we feel that
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:02
			we have more faith in the judicial system
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			rather than the political system.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			I think it was mainly because of popularity
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:09
			and it was mainly a political move rather
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			than a legal move.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			And inshallah, God willing, we feel that this
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			exclusion order would be reversed by the Court
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			of Appeal, hopefully.
