The Last Days Podcast.
Asalam alaikum guys and welcome to another episode of the last days podcast. The last days podcast. Why? Because loads of people are saying the last days are upon us. Well, if that is really the case, then surely we need the knowledge and the knowhow to navigate these days. So ladies and gentlemen, we are here for the next episode of the Can you Can you.
I think I can hear is it some? Nah, let's let's just carry on. Sorry, guys. The last podcast was so enjoyable. Alhamdulillah. So beneficial, but honestly, that knocking sound, we were monitoring the sound throughout, but for some reason, to this day, I don't know what happened.
Jeffrey's jin in it. Well, apparently bal in it. Yeah, sent his prophets here and you know, make some issues for us. Madness. So ladies and gentlemen, we're going to dive deeper into the whole Epstein thing. We are not letting this go, just like they don't let it go anytime something happens with some obscure Muslim that's done something who's not well in the head. But here we have one of the most prolific pedo rings. Yeah. Child abuse rings in modern times, frankly.
And they're trying to brush it under the carpet. They're saying, "Yes, this has happened on the island and this and that, but here are the scores between Arsenal and Manchester United." Oh, what a beautiful header, bro. We don't care about that. We care about this Pratt over here. What's going on? Don't think what you. No, no, no. That's not important. What's important is how he got it in the top left-hand corner of the net. How did he do that, bro? What about him? Like, look at that beautiful cross. Forget about that. Like, what about Gileain?
What about Robert? What? Wasn't Robert Maxwell the father of Gileain Maxwell? Was he not the owner of the Daily Mail? Yeah. But why aren't we mentioning this? No. No. It doesn't matter because there was another match of Crystal Palace and Tottenham. And that ended in a draw. Ladies and gentlemen.
I don't care about that. Breads and circuses. Yes. Yeah. Breads and circuses. You keep the people busy with the mundane with the, you know, not even mundane entertainment. Keep them busy. Yeah. Yeah. Keep them busy. Look at that. Look at those shiny. Like we do with kids. Yeah. Hey. Oh, look. Oh, like you do with the keys. Yeah. Yeah. Let me do. Let me do a demonstration. See? See how easy it was to distract them? Yeah.
So, ladies, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah. So. I'm sure they said no banter. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We saw those numbers. Yeah. Subhan Allah. You know, some brothers, they were like, mah, seeing that poll in the community tab when I was saying what should we introduce to the podcast, they were like, mah, it shows the maturity of the um how mashallah they. Mashallah. Yeah. They want to mashallah, you know, benefit and learn. So, inshallah, we will do. And of course, it goes the channel is called Smile to Jenna. So, of course, there's going to be some smiles and jokes at the expense of these two brothers over here, and they will attempt to do that for me. But, um, let's see. So, general thoughts about last week's podcast, your thoughts afterwards and your feelings and, um, just some general kind of things before we jump into it. Khalid.
What I found strange after the podcast is I felt strangely exhausted and I don't usually feel that after we've done podcasts and not because necessarily the material was heavy, but we mentioned stuff about overwhelm, right? And you're now talking about how the media is distracting us by showing us football matches, etc. And I wonder whether because of the amount of files that were thrown on us, the the sheer amount of it has caused this kind of almost like a blanket over our heads or like a feeling of exhaustion. Cuz I came away from it thinking, oh, we picked out a couple of needles in the haystack, but there's so many more that we need to look at. And it almost feels like where do we find them from despite the fact that they're everywhere? And so that feeling of exhaustion is coming from a place of this material is so heavy. It's so heinous that we can't do it justice even if we want to and yet the media is silent about it. So it almost kind of puts, I suppose, a responsibility on me or on on all of us. So when we're speaking about this, I almost feel like we're just not able to do it justice.
That's a very good point and I think let's let's add in this point as well, which is very important. It was mentioned by when when they announced the files and they said we're not releasing things to do with death and physical injury. Then what's what's left then? Exactly. Firstly, you've admitted that you've redacted and you won't be releasing those, which presupposes that they exist. And frankly, that's what we want to know about. Not this redacted, censored version of who you decided to put the black box on and who you decided to take it off. Apparently, there was one black box and then the the Americans, they said, "Yeah, it's the UAE guy, Same." Right. So, they decide who they want to do. But Netanyahu, his name only came up once and apparently that's it, which I don't believe for a second.
Yeah. And people are cross-referencing the dates. Yeah. Even uh these what they call geo geo trackers. Geog. Geogesser. Yeah. So with Abdul Karim and we were talking about these geogers that can look at a picture and they can check from the markings, the street signs and they can track on Google Maps where that place actually is. Right. To a very precise. There's actually like a tournament of geogers. It's bloody phenomenal. So when we got people like this. I mean, looking at and matching a couple of dates is not going to be remarkable. So these people have cross-referenced and they realized that a lot of the redacted names are of Netanyahu as well.
Wow. Yeah. So, yeah, sorry, bro. So that I think was definitely worth mentioning because some people might be thinking it's it's not really a smoking gun in there or it's not they're not going to convict themselves, you know what I mean? Yeah. No, absolutely. But the thing is, even if they haven't released that type of material, which is very disturbing, even the stuff that we're reading about is disturbing, man. People sending torture videos to to Epstein or and what is in that torture video? Who knows? Is it a child? Is it something similar to that? What you know, there's clips. I don't know whether you've seen these types of clips, clips of where there's like a child screaming and, you know, the child is screaming and that fear is being put into that child for various purposes or whatever. So if we're getting that leak through, man, Allah, what kind of real, disgusting, heinous, and devastating type of material is out there?
Talking of torture clips, how's your Instagram page going? It's quite torturous. Yeah. It is. It is quite torturous. Yeah. Yeah. Omarisa. G. What was your kind of impressions after you went? And obviously you're naturally going to be looking and going, what did we miss? And like, what was your. You know, I've got a first, don't you? A first-time Allah. The most, just the most kind, the most compassion. I send my peace and blessings on the beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam. You know what? It's so true what you said. Was when I went away, uh, two things happened to me. One, my iman was actually high because I felt like, you know, alhamdulillah, we are the truth of Islam. And there's so many things that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is allowing us to stay away from, to get you get involved in this depravity. I've been in the music world and I know what it is, and these are minor things compared to what these people do. But then it was also a feeling of sadness because there's so many things that happen in the world we don't know about. We're like, we're like pawns in this game.
Look, there's kids watching. Yeah. Don't don't game. I mean, chess porn, isn't it? You're mad. Mad. So we're like, like little. I can't remember this guy, bro. Millions, minions in this little game, like, you know, the eye of Solomon, it's just watching over and all that kind of stuff, and it's just really sad. And the world that we live in, how we're navigating through it, you know, and it's just, it's it's tragic, bro. You looking at me for like that? No, it's just your eyes are downcast like, uh, thinking this guy, mashallah, is. I had something in my mind, you know, this guy. Keep it. He's thrown derails you. I've had nuggets, nuggets before, guys. He's speaking. I had something really. Exactly. Had something really good in my head. It'll come back. The, um, has been bereft of so much wisdom of just because of these tangents.
All right. So, alhamdulillah, that was, uh, that was really, uh, interesting. The fact that when I went there, I said, and I have to repeat this again, the fact that death and injurious pictures and clips have been redacted, removed, not included. This is very important. And a lot of people that are making correlations with demonic practices and certain kind of cult, cabalistic practices, and people, you know, might be saying, where's the evidence? Yeah. And you'll be hard-pressed to find some clear-cut evidence. Yeah, but that's because it's not been included. And we know people like this that, you know, for you to be, for you to have like a system in which children are exploited. There's even in these ancient religious practices, it's only if if you look at the common thread, the common thread is relating it to demonic practices. Yeah. You know, no matter what history you look at. Fiddling about with kids, doing stuff to kids is always linked to that sort of stuff. Always. So, that is doesn't come as a surprise as well. But the other thing that I think was very important to mention before we get into the the juice of the matter, Rotherham, Rotherham, Telford, places in the UK in which, you know, abhorrent acts have been taking place that have been labeled as grooming. Yeah. It's child abuse. And frankly, just because certain, um, child abuse has been done by a certain, you know, colored people, people of certain faiths or whatnot, it should not just be restricted to that. And the outrage should not just be restricted to that. Yeah. Otherwise, if we do then start looking at religious figures and we start pulling out certain things, then frankly, the first people that will be thrown under the bus and the first people that will have to do a lot of the explaining are going to have to be the Christians, frankly.
Yeah. And if I if I show you these headlines, uh, you guys, I'll I'll show you guys this first. Yeah. Just to, and then I'll send it to you as well, bro. So, so look at this. Yeah. So, just just read this out. Headline, Australian Catholic Church has abused thousands of children. Inquiry finds. Australia. Thousands. Mhm. And the church. Mhm. Obviously children is standard. Yeah. Let's go to the next one. Read the headline. So thousands of active in French Catholic Church since 1950, commission finds. Okay. So thousands and the church. Mhm. Let's go for the next one. German Catholic priests abuse thousands of children. Okay. So again, thousands. Yeah. Apparently where the the demonic faith. Yeah. I'm not saying that the faith is demonic, but what I'm saying is certain people that make this argument that, oh, Islam is from a demon and this and that. I'm sorry, but you're going to, if that's the criteria, then you know what I mean? You're axing your own foot. Thousands raped and abused in Catholic schools in Ireland. I don't think it says raped. Man, bro, this guy. Something wrong with him. All right. You might be thinking Jehovah's Witnesses are legit. Yeah. Yeah. Jehovah's Witnesses kept a secret database of tens of thousands of child molesters for two decades and hid it from the authorities. Okay. Uh, you might be thinking, you know, this is mainstream Christianity. The small little groups, the cults, they they should be all right. Yeah. Khalid. Okay. What? I'm good. Right. One in six children sexually abused in Jesus Army cult. So look, even the cults, the Christian cults as well. Thousands of children abused in Dutch churches over 65 years. Inquiry says. What, what are the common words we're seeing in all of these church? Thousands, bro. Thousands. Church. Church and children. Children. But thousands is so like that's a massive figure. Okay. Thousands of children abused by members of Portugal's Catholic Church over 70 years, report finds. I'm not done, bro. I'm not done. Are these old or what? Bro, they're going to have them all on the screen. Thousands of minors abused by a German Protestant church study reveals. Oh man, it's not just one denomination. Just in case the Protestants were like, "Ha, these Catholic scumbags." Yeah. No, man. Okay. Spanish. We're working our way through the globe. Yeah. We're helping you learn countries. As well as headlines. So, Spanish, the Spanish church sexual abuse affected 200,000 children. Commission finds. A lot of stuff. This is. This is a place in America. Not even all. When you said thousands, it was like, what, what do you mean by thousands? Like that was explicit. That's a lot. Do you see a Pennsylvania priests abused thousands of children, man? And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Yeah. I haven't even mentioned even the Native Americans. Also, question. You know, an archbishop, that's a Protestant, isn't it? No. Archbishop. Yeah. So, that's a Protestant. Okay. Okay. But they're not Catholic. Cuz that's the big argument, right? That cuz, um, Catholic priests are not allowed to get married. So, obviously, it's it's brother. It's against your nature, bro. Of course, you know, and Protestants can. So, that's why they'll have the argument. But you've shown both sides of the argument there. Bottom line is no one said we need to now change the Bible. We now need to get every single Christian whenever they're on any interview anywhere, we need to get them first to answer, "Do you condemn? Do you condemn? Do you condemn?" Are we hearing this? No. Are whites being seen suspiciously? No. As they're walking down the street or someone with the cross like. Yeah. You got a kid or something? Never, bro. Never. It's an agenda, bro. It's an agenda. If you think about it, it's a constant agenda. Even with the terrorist attacks, when something happens by one one scumbag human being, Muslims get blamed for it. Every Muslim has to answer for it, you know, at the end of the day. So, we know that the media, it's not even the media, Shayan's minions, bro. We don't know who they are, what they control. We know what they control, but they're in on this earth and they control all the biggest news spaces.
You know what's crazy? Like when these attacks happen, Muslims, like when the grooming thing happened, there was a BBC headline, 500 mosques condemned it. Yeah. But when it comes to the current genocide taking place and these Israelis are asked to condemn it, do they condemn it? No. Do they condemn it? No. No. Even when it comes to certain senior people in the Jewish synagogues, do they condemn it? No. So this is a problem. This is a problem. When it comes to Muslims, you know, a certain group comes out, we're clear. It's got nothing to do with our religion. But when you ask certain people about the Old Testament, when they're quoting Amalek, 1st Samuel 15:3, there you go. It's there. Kill, you know, infants and suckling babies. Didn't actually say this. He didn't. He said Amalek. And then Betselem, the human rights organization in Israel, said anyone who's gone through the Israeli education system knows when Amalek is mentioned, it refers to everybody. Complete and utter wipeout. Wow. So now bearing that in mind, what religion? We mentioned this last time and I think it's worth mentioning again because in the current headlines, Epstein's religion has not been mentioned. Have you heard? No, I haven't heard it. BBC, ITV, Sky. Never heard it. Maybe one guy like the Rupert Murdoch going on there mistakenly, you know, saying, "Oh, you know what? He's a Jewish guy and this and that." Have you. Did Rupert Murdoch say that? No, I'm saying that just like they plant certain things on the Rupert Murdochs and the Tommy Robinsons and they get them to say what you know they want to say. Okay. They're not going to say it themselves. But they get these kind of minions to say it. Is there an equivalent that would on Sky, on BBC, on ITV say, "Oh, yeah, but he's a Jewish guy." No. No. Have you Have you heard that? No. Very rarely. No. So, this is I thought I thought all child abuse was bad. Well, this is hadn't he been a Muslim, already would have been explicitly mentioned.
Okay, let's do a thought experiment. Let's let's put ourselves in this position now. Marisa. Yeah. Khalid. Yeah. Put put ourselves in this position that Epstein happened to be a Muslim. It's just come out. Let's imagine in this world, how would things be different? What, what would we see happening? Bro, this would be a media storm. It would be on every outlet. It would be breaking news that, you know, this religion is tied to this type of practice. And I don't think anyone would have let it go, whether it's in the States, whether it's in the UK, Australia. Anyway, because what I was saying to you, there's it's quite, it's very quiet over the pond when it comes to this stuff. Here and there, we're hearing it because of Mandelson, etc., but in the States, it's very quiet. And so had this been the other way around, and look, it's unfortunate, but a lot of this stuff is agenda-driven. It's what brother Ahmed was saying, a lot of this is agenda-driven, bro, which is, and it's so unfortunate because the victims are just a collateral of that. The victims are, you know, used as, okay, it's now serving our purpose. So had this been a Muslim thing, my word, we, I don't think we would have heard the last of this for for a long time. So although the news anchors wouldn't be saying, "Oh, Epstein's a Muslim and his faith has done this and done that." They wouldn't say that. But what they do, Yeah. And tell me if you've noticed this as well, they give airtime to people that have those views. Yeah. So they bring these people on for the sake of not being biased. Let's have a voice from the other side. Yeah. Let's let's bring on the Tommy Robinsons. Let's bring on these guys, the who whoever they are. Yeah. And let's let's hear them because Tommy Robinson has been called to the Oxford Union. He's been given space on BBC, Question Time, all of these slots, mainstream slots, and people be going, hey, they've been complicit in this guy becoming popular. So don't try and make it seem like, oh, we got a documentary exposing him. Oh, he's become too big now. Really? Yeah. No way. How did that happen? M. Cuz the media is very good at not giving airtime. For example, you're a Nasheed artist. Yeah. And without throwing people, unless you want to mention the names, it's not my position. Throw them under the bus. So there are certain, like we were saying, certain radio stations. I was like, but it would be obvious that they'd be playing your tracks. I mean, you've been making vocal only, uh, tracks and pieces for so long. Yeah. So it makes sense for certain radio stations to be playing you, but they don't. And you said the reason was, oh, I'm too halal for them. You're too halal for them. So they make it clear that, oh, you're not using beats. Yeah. We've contacted them. Yeah. Yeah. That you don't use beats. You're too religious. So in other words, if they want to alienate some people from their platform, they can. Yeah. Of course. That's that's my point. Yeah. But here, they wouldn't. But when it comes to the Epstein files, why don't you want to bring somebody from the other side, somebody unbiased, somebody that is very critical of Judaism and Israel? Why? Why not? It's fear, isn't it? It's fear, bro. You just get labeled anti-semitism. And which is true. You can't label a whole community. We agree with that as well. But the thing is, like, you know, you're saying the thought experiment, bro. When the 9/11 happened and the terrorist stuff happened, bro, organizations came from nowhere. Quilliam, Prevent started. There was a whole agenda looking, how is a kid saying alhamdulillah, he's a bit practicing there. He, we hold on, he wants to pray. What he wants to pray his Salah. A kid said cucumber in class, the teacher thought he said cook. And then call. Subhan Allah. That's what I mean. So imagine now if Epstein was a Muslim, bro, we will be painted. Bro, we will be, it will be going through schools. They'll introduce curriculums. Then it will be like segments about it. Then it will be like, then they start talking about Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam, which they always do anyway. And then you'll see. It's interesting you said about Tommy Robinson, right? He was he was birthed by these guys, bro. But then when he became dad, that's the. How is he birthed by these? He was birthed by them, bro. It was called English Defense League. Ora. It was say that. It's called English Defense. His group that. No, when it when it was it when it was founded, it was called the English and Jewish Defense League, formed in 2011. English and Jewish Defense League. Yes. Tommy Robinson, the founder. Yeah. Founded the EDL, calling it the English and Jewish Defense League in 2011. And then it stopped, the company stopped on companies in 2014. Subhan. So if the whole Epstein thing was, you know, if he was a Muslim, then you're saying we'd see certain things being added in to prevent teachers would have to do training. When I was a teacher, I remember having to do anti-terrorism training and all that, looking for certain identifiable signs within the kids and stuff like that. You know, are they talking like this? Are they doing this? Would the same happen when it is the same happening to to the Jewish community? No. No. Absolutely not. No. It'll be it will be labeled as anti-semitism. You know, there's no. If you even hear them talk, they don't even want to hear Islamophobe. They actually say there's no such thing. That's interesting. Look, I listen to talk sport a lot and there's a guy called Simon Jordan on it and he talks about there's a thing called DEI. Is it DE? Is it, you know, when people do diversity, you know, kind of sports and all that? Yeah. Diversity and inclusion training. So, it's so, what is it? D is it. DNI is usually that. Yeah. So they were talking about, he was talking to a woman and he was talking about how this inclusion of, you know, Afro-Caribbean community in football and he goes, it's not, it's all to do with, uh, diverse, you know. Yeah. The lady goes to him, then dig, dig. Can you say D? Did he say dig? I'm thrown after her. So basically he said to her, it's because of that. She went, so you're telling me that I don't have the skills for it. So when we now go look at the Muslim world, bro, everything is is kind of shaped by this kind of undertones of racism, man. And it's something that we have to understand and real. The elephant in the room is racism is prevalent. It's just quiet sometimes. And and I think these case studies are so important because last time we did brush over it, but I think it's definitely worth unpacking because these case studies are very important because when we're at certain workplaces and people come to us, oh, what happened over here? What happened over here? We there have to be certain things that we can recall reflex. Yeah. As a reflex. Yeah. Oh, what about this? What about that? So, in other words, you cannot judge a religion, a people by the actions of a few. That's what it comes down to. Don't judge. We're not saying judge the Jews by this by this individual. But what we're saying is that he happens to be a Jew. And is he being treated like the Muslims get treated when so and so does an action on the other side of the globe? Never happens. These when the when the guy ran over those football fans in Liverpool. Yeah. The headline said family man. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know what I'm saying, bro? And when you hear a Muslim saying it, oh, a Muslim from the religion of it. It gets that absurd the headlines, right? And you're sitting back and you're thinking, a Muslim from the religion of Islam that believes in Halal. They break it down proper. And it's really sad, man. It's it's it's it's interesting because even when Muslims get into that power position, right, the MPs, these guys, all these so-called Muslims and what Allah, right, they're the ones who are then at the forefront of throwing Muslims under the bus as well. Yeah. It's like a party, brother. We're not invited to it. Look at look at Shabana Mahmood the way that she is. Do I have to? Well, I mean, it puts me off my food. But meaning this is somebody that used to go out and you know, she used to campaign for Palestine. Used to be very active in these things and now is, you know, one of the major forerunners in changing policies. She's porn. She's. For the system. Is it. Porn for the system? But you, you know, going back to what you were saying about, you know, people not mentioning necessarily the religion of the person. It could be, and I'm not just playing devil's advocate here. It could be due to the fact that. Jew, see what you did there. Do you see straight went for the Jew in it? This guy's going to get me canceled. In in terms of like many years of blood libel that have been, you know, put on this community. And so I whether the media is trying to avoid that because of the amount of children involved in this and what was labeled on them in medieval times by Christians saying that this is what they used to do in ritualistic practices, etc. And that the blood of Christian children was mixed in with other these are, you know, things like the wandering Jew and many of these kind of classics that were, you know, these myths that were invented by Christians. Then you can't claim to care about kids. Then there's a historical context. There's a political context. There's who's paying more money to the media. Who's got certain people higher up? Then don't pretend like you care about the kids. Like now, the again, the whole grooming thing is being given light to as well, which is ironic because the the individual that brought it to light when it had kind of there were several inquiries and there were conclusions that had been made that majority of the perpetrators of grooming in this country were white men. 83%. Yeah. Yeah. They were white men and the the, uh, NPCC, the CSA, the Home Office, all of these, you know, reports concluded that majority of them were white people. Yeah. However, still now periodically, it just seems like it's been done. Like now certain testimonials are coming out of, you know, women that were groomed. Yeah. Very conveniently done. Why wasn't this done back in the days? No. Yeah. Now, don't get me wrong. I, we welcome it. Like bring it forward, but don't bring it forward strategically. And don't try and make it seem like, oh, this. This abuse is deserving of more media attention than that abuse. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because frankly, these very people are generally speaking big fans of Donald Trump. Yeah. Yeah. And let's see Donald Trump's actual involvement in the files. But before I do that, I'll give you guys a chance to kind of tie up any remaining knots you want. You were talking, do you mind if I jump quickly here? Cuz you were talking about like the. And this is what I said earlier and it's so abhorrent. It's the weaponization. Of these victims. Yeah. Mhm. It's the weaponization of these victims to fit an agenda at a time that suits them. That's convenient. And that is disgusting, man. Like if you look at the amount of redactions within the Epstein files, but the people that haven't been redacted are the victims. Yeah. Like what kind of. Yeah. Like they're the people that you want to protect. These are the people that you're trying to serve justice for. They're evil, man. You don't want to serve justice for them. And just to quickly put an esoteric spin on this, the reason why the names of those victims weren't redacted is because they were sacrifices. Yeah. And you have to put the sacrifice in plain sight. And that's how nasty that this is. The the real, you know, the underpinning of this is completely demonic. Completely.
You know what, bro? You know, you said nasty, right? I was talking to a friend about this and we were talking about how there's files for this guy where he's got emails and all that. Imagine what they used to say to each other privately. Bro. Yeah. Imagine what they haven't said. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Imagine what they're saying. Torture videos. This woman's coming. This woman. Imagine what they did privately, bro. That's scary. Allah, how sick they are in the mind. We can't even fathom because, you know, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has given us, alhamdulillah, Allah has given us, you know, uh, uh, mercy. You know, we fear Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. We don't want to hurt people, but these people regularly hurting people. Like I said, I can't believe you just told me that. I never heard it where they said they redacted stuff about death and all that. This is what it is for them, though. They revel in that. Yeah, man. They revel in that. And it's. We know what they do when they sacrifice animals and all that. If that was put out. Yeah. There would be there'd be what do you call it when they're smashing up on the streets? Riots. There'd be riots. But you think so, bro? Yeah. This is it. I actually don't think there would. There might be an FA Cup game, bro. And people are like quiet about it. Honestly, the world has become really numb to this, bro. This is it. We. And that's the whole point, bro. Remember I was saying it last week. This is the whole point of it. You throw that type of information out, which is so crippling and paralyzing to you that you literally look, you've got fight, flight, or freeze. And this information is so heavy that you're not, you don't have the tools to process this type of information that you just freeze. You can be enraged to a certain degree, but your rage is going to get you where? Absolutely nowhere. Because we've been in this cycle from COVID till now where you're like, if I scream, no one hears me. And they say that, you know what? They, you got these FA Cups and all these sorts of things and all these Netflix shows and, you know, gaming and all that sort of stuff, but even they're catering for the older people as well. Oh, remember we used to watch Malcolm in the Middle. Remember we used to watch Scrubs? Well, we're bringing it back again. There's a reunion. There's a Friends reunion. So like. I'd like a Desmond's reunion. Remember Desmond? Me? I don't know what that is. You do. No, you're older than us. Yeah. Madness. What's a Desmond? Desmond is about a barber shop in Peckham. It was it was great. Anyway. Madness. So, you were talking about victims of grooming. Yeah. That if there are certain victims of grooming, that's fine, but don't weaponize it. Now, there's actually more to that. For example, Caitlyn Spencer was a victim of grooming. Yeah. But she was told by the far-right people, your children deserve to die. But she was a victim of grooming. It sounds strange, isn't it? And they should be drowned in the channel. Who? Her children. Her children. But why? Question. He says if you're alive, she actually said that the victims aren't all white. Hope to answer the question. Now, because she didn't tow the line with the other far-right guys, she's no longer a victim. She's given up that card. Yeah. You know, you know what I mean? Well, what did she say? That the victims aren't all white. They're not all white. She said some of the victims that were with me, they were Asian. Ah, got you. Okay. So, they can't play. Yes. So, they can't play that game anymore. And she's saying that you can't say the perpetrators were all Asian because they weren't. They weren't. Yeah. And that's a problem because she's now not towing the line. Doesn't fit their narrative. You're not one of us now. You're one of them. Who's one of them? What does that mean? Yeah. Yeah.
So, Omar, uh, you want to tie up some of your thoughts before we go to the next section about Oh, Jeffrey. Yeah. About Jeffrey. And, um, I think you were talking about if the Muslims, if he happened to be a Muslim, and you made a really good point about the fact that it would be introduced in schools and they'd have to look at certain kids. Like what other things do you think would happen if he ended up being a Muslim? Bro, we would all be affected by. I think every Muslim, even now, bro, we're, um, having masjid would have to. Yes. Oh my gosh. Above, bro. Yeah. And also, we as Pakistani men, come on. We know what we, what happens, what we're looked at now. Come on. They think grooming because they've said it so many times. It's like Pakistani has to be there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And even us Pakistani guys, we're looking at. I know brothers from up north, bro, who look at people differently now. The problem is, bro, is that we believe the mainstream media. Yeah. What are you looking at me for? Why are you laughing? Looking at you thinking the bloody gum, ain't it? Yeah. No, it's part of your example, is it? Thinking that when we see each other, he's well-groomed. My. Shock. I'm digging a bigger hole now. Oh, was that a. No, it was a good one. It was a good. Trying to save you. No, he's. Some people are groomed badly. You've been groomed. He takes care of himself. We're going to start. I'm going to start saying he actually looks like a groomer and I got proof that he is. But we're not, we're not going to go down that path. Yeah. True. Kate, he's a good groomer. You Pakistani men. No, but at the end of the day, bro, we have to understand as Muslims. As everybody, take everything you hear with a pinch of salt. Honestly, they are selective. They are giving you news that you want to hear. They got bosses in place that are telling him what to say. Like you said, my bro, they're revealing the names of the victims in these files, but they're redacting so many other names. What names are they? Who are they redacting? And we're going to go nicely onto our mate. So, one of the names that's been conveniently were not redacted from the get-go, but people that looked at the files, they noticed that from the release of the files till a short while later when they were searching the name Trump, they noticed 460 files with the name Trump was deleted. Oh, wow. Now, here's what it when it becomes more interesting. Yeah. Now, Epstein had 14 different numbers for Trump. Yeah. They found this in the black book because his butler, he was he gave it. He was trying to sell it to the victims so they can use it in the court cases. Yeah. Go on. Something's cooking. No. What? What do you mean he was selling it to the victim? What? Yeah. So, he had he had a black book. In it, I've got a black book as well, but my black is it. My one has knowledge. You just groom chickens. So like it's it's interesting even the use of our black books. Like we put we put our notes in there, we derive and give benefit to the um. Absolutely. And, uh, this guy puts a bajillion things in there, but his butler gave like in 2009, he tried to sell Epstein's book to the victims and it. Oh, so he took it. He stole it from him. Oh, he tried to say to the victims. Okay. Okay. Okay. To the survivors. Sorry. Um, so they can use it in their cases and and they looked at the names that were there and there were certain names that were circled and one of those names was Trump's. Okay. Yeah. And some people are saying that it's people that were co-conspirators, people that were, you know, heavily involved. So, uh, those, so he in there, they they saw 14 different numbers for Trump. Wow. Bro, the road man gets sick because he carries two, three burner phones. Yeah. What the hell is my man carrying, bro? Yeah. What the flip is this? How many phones is this? That's mad. Like, imagine. Hotline. Yeah, bro. 14 different numbers. And imagine somebody being so connected with you. He's like, "Yeah, I've got all of his 14 different numbers." When he's in Portugal, that number. Yeah. When when I'm in bloody Timbuktu, when I'm with your mate, that's your mate, bro. That's your mate. You know what I mean? So, I mean, and Trump traveled on Epstein's private plane. Not once, not twice, not thrice. This is documented. Seven times. Wow. Yeah. Seven times he traveled with him. In a 2002 interview with Trump, he goes, "I've known Epstein." My thing is not good. Your accent. I've known Epstein. For how long? For 15 years. You really get. For 15 years. No, I'm not going to do it. Go on. Yeah. And then say he's a terrific guy. He's a terrific guy. Let me try now. He likes beautiful women. That's quite good. And many of them are on the younger side. He actually said that. He actually said that, bro. Oh, wow. I'm going to say it in a more serious voice so people don't think it's a joke. He likes beautiful women and many of them are on the younger side. So that people, I mean, I don't think it's outlandish if you're to infer it's likely Trump knew about his nefarious activities. I mean, previously you could have said that because his wife currently is much younger than him, he could have meant that, but given the amount of information that we have got with the connection with children that that kind of line on that plane. But there's a video of him though, is it where he's dancing and Epstein just arms folded. Just standing and Trump's acting like a acting like a madman around him. He's like jumping around him like whispering to him and Epstein's just calm. You know, someone's calm. You know what I'm saying? He's proper calm and he's going and he's dancing. So, yeah, man. Come on. But there were stories about that. I can't corroborate them fully at the moment. Maybe we can search them up where some of the victims were saying that they used to go on those flights when they were a lot younger and once you're up and you're in the air, there's nothing else you can do. And then they would come out and start offering drinks and and things like that. They'll be scantily clad and things. So it doesn't seem impossible that this. You know about you know Epstein though. Yeah. This guy is a is a cat. He's completely, uh, he he's definitely an agent. Allah alam. Is he Mossad, allegedly, whatever. But bro, he did, you know, he always used to take photos with the guys, bro. Not people don't do that, bro. It's not a normal thing to just go and selfies in the mirror. Have you seen selfies in the mirror? He's like taking a photo. It's like a honey trap. I'm getting you. I've got a picture of you. Just understand that. Yeah. And it's like that threat kind of system, you know. There's photos. He's got so many photos with everybody. That's not even normal. You take one photo with your boy in it. He's got this one, that one. How many pictures of Bill Clinton? You know, forget pictures. Can I get your other number? Yeah. Here's my. Can I get your other other number? Yeah. Yeah. Can I get your other other number? Flipping. Your 14th one. You know, you said allegedly. I think we can take that allegedly off now. Yeah. Of the connections with. Alleged. With. Yeah. Because former Israeli intelligence officer Ari Ben Menashe. Yeah. He made it clear that he trapped multiple US presidents. Yeah. There's a clip on Going Underground. Um, and there's an interview in which he's, he goes into depth and he goes, "Yeah, like that." Absolutely. Absolutely. That that was his role. And if you look at, um, even before we get to that, just to tie up that that side, like we talked about Trump and how he viewed Epstein, but here's in the files what what Epstein said about Trump. He's the dog that hasn't barked. And, uh, one of you guys, you you were talking about that clip. Who mentioned that clip? Was that you? Yeah. So on that clip in my head, I had this quote in my head and I'm thinking he's jumping around like a poodle like a dog. And he's standing there like a like like the owner of the dog. Easy boy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. True. Now, how how is it with like when your dog is getting excited? Like as an owner of the dog? Like what's the mentality? It depends on what the dog's being excited for. Has he seen food that's making him excited? Has he seen a toy that he really loves that he's getting? Let's just say toys. He sent loads of toys. Yeah. So, if he's like a dog will usually have a certain toy that he really loves or if you grab the lead, for example. Let's just say it's a small toy, a younger toy. I'm trying to relate it to the. I know that, but as in, as in what do you want to know? So, the dog will get excited. It will show its excitement. It will, you know. Wag its tail. Yeah. It will make itself known to you. Yeah. But the owner plays it cool. That's the point, right? Well, exactly. Because you need to do something to earn that. There you go. So someone that's. Folded his arms. He's. Get that treat in it. You know what I mean? Get that treat in it. The other person is no longer a threat. Yeah. I folded my arms, you know. You know what I mean? Like, and he's there. He's kind of leaning in. He's like. That clip, bro. He's. Very telling, isn't it? That clip. Bro. That body language is so so important. And this. Poodle kind of thing. But it also shows you just how used to these type of shenanigans that Epstein is. So he's used to become excited because they know what they're about to experience or what they have just experienced, whereas he's the he's put the ded.
You know, he's the one who's done it, so he's watching because he knows. And Epstein, even with the former Israeli Prime Minister, Barak, met with him 30 times, bro. Putin, he met with him zero times, and he expressed his desire to meet with him. We were talking about that last podcast and wanted to meet him.
Yeah. But here, bro, now we've explicated the amount of times, and I think we mentioned by mistake "president" last time, but it's "prime minister." Yeah. So 30 times, and this was 5 years also after his conviction. Some people might say, "Yeah, yeah, it was before, and you know, don't don't try it." To such a degree, when Barak was the minister of defense, bro, he was bloody coaching him. Yes, Epstein was coaching him, bro. That's right. Wow.
So, some of these connections, like I mentioned, Epstein's right-hand woman was Ghislaine Maxwell. Ghislaine Maxwell's father was Robert Maxwell. We already said Robert Maxwell was the owner of the Daily Mail. And he also, I think, provided a software, and that software gave like a backdoor to Israel to get American, you know, secrets and stuff like that. There's loads of these.
And it's a really good episode, I think, by Lowkey on Double Down News. What is that road, the newspaper road again? You know, where all the newspapers are. Is it Fleet? Is it Fleet Street? Is it Fleet Street maybe? I don't know. Is it? Do you know what it is? Because actually, you know, Robert Maxwell, he actually not only owned the Daily Mail, he owned a lot of papers, bro. He had, he was a massive power player. He was the, he was the top. He was like Rupert Murdoch of his time. He's been proven to be M.I.A.D.
Yeah. And he's, he's, bro, he's buried in Jerusalem in one of the most holiest sites, the holiest places where they bury holy people, bro. He was given a state funeral in which intelligence, senior Israeli intelligence officers were present, and there was a big hoo-ha.
Yeah. So, all of these things in mind, bro, what can we conclude? It's still allegedly still maybe still conspiracy. But you know what's scary about this? It's almost as if they've chucked it out and gone, "What are you going to do?" And we're all just like talking about it and speaking about it, but people haven't realized their strength, and it feels like humanity hasn't understood its strength. The Deen, most certainly hasn't understood its strength.
And I think that's one thing that we need to take from this is that whatever your differences may be right now, you need to put them aside because the war that is happening outside of your Masjid is far greater than what's happening inside.
What do you mean by that saying, "Where the Deen is not"? What do you mean by that? The Deen is not unified because we're far too busy within our Salah focusing on where your trousers are, or where your is, or where is he doing this, or he is. Do listen, there's time and there's a place for that. Yeah. The war is happening outside of your house, and you are too blind to see it. We're not uniting, man. We need to unite. This is the reason why when he took Al-Aqsa, what he did was he united people under the banner of what Al-Aqsa means.
But interesting, bro, hear this though. I was in Jerusalem, and the sister who does a tour, she gave me a tour of Masjid Al-Aqsa. She actually said that the most wars Salah had was actually with Muslims. Meaning Islam has actually never ever been that kind of united front that we kind of envision ahead of the time of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). It means that sometimes you just need that individual who will have other Muslims who just join it. Some Muslims may not join it.
Yeah. But there'll be Muslims who will come together like a Masjid there, and this Masjid will come together. Or I find that Masjid is not joining, no problem, but this one will. So it's not, we're not going to ever get complete unity because that is actually the dua that was made and it was not accepted because this is the test of the Ummah. Now, I know certain people will be watching, they'll be going, "Yeah, we know this, we're not united, we need to be united," and it's like a pipe dream into the future. No, we can start this from a very low level in your homes. Absolutely.
If you look even in your homes, be that guy, be that diplomat in your homes that knows how to deal with conflict. Yeah. Yeah. How many people can say before marriage, or in their homes, or when they're, you know, about to start work, or this or that, that they learned how to deal with conflict? Many people don't know. Many people don't even understand other people's psychology. They don't understand empathy. They can't put themselves in someone else's position. They are literal soaps. People that believe only I exist. Like, that's it. Everything is around me. But what we can do, Zishan, is we can start reflecting inwardly, right? And that's where you can start. You might not be able to change somebody else's opinion, but what you can change is the state of yourself. And shadow work, it works in this manner where you can understand when something irks you inside about someone else, you have to then ask yourself, "What is it about that action or what they're doing that's getting to me?" And how can I shift my perspective away from that? And if you can do that, you can start to then have more unity with those around you.
Yeah. Bro, we're coming to a time, we're talking about this being the end days. If this is the end of days, then what are we even doing? Why are we such, we are dispersed in such a manner where people look at us and the Kuffar, they will look at you and say, "They are Saracens," or "He's a Wahhabi," or "He's a this," or "He's a that." They don't care. No, they don't. Your enemy doesn't give a damn about you other than the fact that you are a Saracen. And you have to understand that if you want to uphold the flag of La ilaha illallah, then you have to start being kind to your brother.
Yeah. You have to start being kind. This is, this is very, very important, and I think you hit the nail on the head. Um, like, that's, that's the bigger picture. We need to understand it. But also, you also mentioned like Masjid committees. Like, in even in like a Masjid, you notice there's so much division there. You look in a family, there's so much division there. Alhamdulillah, in my head comes one family in which there's like 20 members like that come to mind. Yeah. And they refer to one individual that when something happens, they're like, "Call so-and-so, he's level-headed, and he'll be able to reach, you know, a conclusion or something like that." We all need to be and have people in our families that are like this. Yeah. That we can go to, that there is other, there is respect for such individuals, and these individuals are able to not water things down and say, "No, no, no, you are right," and this and that. They have, and they've garnered enough respect, and they can do this. So I guess what I'm saying is, make yourself such that we can start this on a lower level.
Yeah. Rather than thinking big, like, "Oh, the," and flipping our, you know, our wife's not even speaking to us. Bro, be the change. Be the change in your own home. And then that will pay it forward, inshallah. Like, for example, me, I do niche, bro. My audience is very small. I'm going up against a giant of music for the sake of Allah. Who knows who will change? And this is my journey. Everyone's, you do your news thing in your individual way, mashallah. You do your psychoanalysis stuff in your way, bro, alhamdulillah. And we have to understand that if we don't make those changes within and then around our surroundings, it's not going to pay it forward. The kindness, how we act with each other. Subhan Allah.
And bro, one thing I want to say quickly, there is a reason why they get really scared when we say "Khalifa." Yes. Try to say that we know, we know organizations that have been banned. Yes. Because they're pushing for the Khalifa. Because they're scared. Because the agenda started when the Ottoman Empire was tumbled, bro. When they got rid of that, they knew there was a beginning now, and they had to get certain men on board who would sign their little contracts and say, "Listen, we'll give you all of this." But don't talk about Khalifa.
Yeah. You know, so we need to understand that we have to start small, and then, inshallah, tala, we will get to that with Allah's help. Inshallah. Yeah. And definitely in this, the whole rhetoric around calling your brother "brother" for the sake of Islam, understand the criteria of what it means to be a brother.
Yeah. We're not talking friend. We're not talking acquaintance or associate. A brother. Do you know how deep that goes? But then you're so quick to go, "This guy here, this guy here," and list all of his faults. Subhan Allah. But we Muslims do that so much. This is the issue. We were talking off camera when you went as we was talking about how the Muslim, the Muslim audience is so beautiful, but bro, in the comments, they go mad.
Yeah. They need to give it a rest, man. Honestly, we're so self-righteous sometimes, and we shouldn't be like that. You know, this is completely against our faith. You know, if we don't fix ourselves, man, we're not fixing anything.
So, here's a distinction that a lot of people don't know. They might be thinking like, "Oh, these brothers, they may not understand this to do with this topic or that topic." And you know, we have to get this out there. This Hadith, the Hadith tells us to. And that's fine. Yeah. But there's a difference between and. Yeah. There's a difference. There's going to be differences. Absolutely. But you don't have to have enmity. Subhan Allah. That distinction is important. Have your difference, but don't have enmity.
Yes. Brothers are confusing this. Yeah. And they are now justifying it via the religion, and that's where a problem happens. That's a fantastic point. Alhamdulillah. So, may Allah accept, inshallah, and may Allah give us the reality of what's going on. Empower us and not let us be people that are just reactive and people that are just defensive. Because when somebody comes up to you now and calls you certain names based on the actions of a few, you should have enough case studies. This one, we've talked about it in enough detail in this episode that you should feel empowered to go, "Just like you don't blame so-and-so for his religion, Epstein or Neville husband for his religion for the grooming that he does, a Christian, all of these churches, Catholic churches, thousands in church here, it's not in mosques that the grooming is happening. It's not thousands of kids. It's not clergy. It's not religious. These are just like, arm-bound, like local lads that happen to be Muslim. Their names are Muslim names."
Yeah. You know. Yeah, absolutely. So, let's, let's wrap up with. Did you want to say something? Yeah, just a final thought really. I just wanted to challenge the audience really and say, the moment you start feeling something negative towards your brother, I want you in that moment just to say and mention three good qualities about them. It's going to be hard, really hard. And this is where shadow work comes in. You look at someone, you've said something immediately about this brother. Stop and mention three things about that brother which are good, and leave it there. That's between you and Allah. But just do it. And train your heart to think good of your brother. Train your heart to start feeling warmth towards your brother for the sake of them being in the Deen. That's it. Give it a go.
Yeah, I'd say definitely start this today, inshallah. Yeah, start this practice. It's a, it's a form of test for the heart. You do this right now. Like, I'd say, let's do it for us three, but we'd be praising each other in each other's face, and it'd be on camera. And this is more to do with when you feel something coming up inside you that's negative about someone, it's at that point.
Yeah. I feel negative about him. So I'd have to say positive things. I was actually, I was actually going to say something about him. I thought, you know what, not right. I was going to say it's going to be very difficult for me to say three good things about you. Um, I preempted that. You did. You had to. You had to. If I can ask you to just say that. Same thing as Muslims, my brothers and sisters, when you see something that a Muslim is doing online and you're upset with them or for whatever reason, yeah, please don't leave a negative comment, man. Like, make dua for them. Go speak to them. No, make dua for them because remember, I heard a scholar say that when you leave a negative comment online, hundreds, thousands of people are going to read your, your misdeed because it's a deed. You're giving them good deeds. And imagine you say to somebody face to face, that's one. But you're putting it down. Hundreds, thousands of people potentially listening, reading that. So please hold yourself, man. Hold yourself. It's not that important. Trust me, the person you're even saying it against probably not even reading it anyway. Yeah. So make dua for them. They're doing something bad. Make dua for them. Make dua for the Ummah. Be good and kind to your neighbors, Muslim and non-Muslim, man. We, you know, we talk about the neighbor. It's not the next-door neighbor, it's the whole street.
Yeah, man. You know what I'm saying? So we have to be there for one another. Subhan Allah.
Yeah. Okay, let's go to the quotes now. My quote is that dunya is like saltwater. Whenever you increase in drinking it, you will also increase in thirst. Yeah. So you, that's how the dunya is. The more you get it, it seems like there's a lot of it because physically, materially, there is. But because of the presence of salt, it's having the absolute opposite effect. And the other example that I like to give, and I've heard as well, is like it's, you should, your example is like a ship. Yeah. And the water is like wealth. Yeah. When it's outside you, your heart, it's fine. It's useful to you. But the moment water starts entering the ship, like it's entering the heart, then it becomes problematic. The ship sinks, your heart sinks. That's a good one. I like that. You know what I mean? Sure. I like that.
Must have gone next. Uh, mine is a very famous one. Don't depend. Sorry. Sorry. What was that? He jumped so quick. He's on it like, like a rocket. M. You can't slip with this guy. You cut that out. You can't slip. You can't. That's a shorts, bro. Like, it's a very famous quote. Can't even read. Turn it into shorts. Okay. So, yeah. Okay. So, mine is a very famous quote. Don't depend too much on anyone in this world because even your own shadow leaves when you are in darkness. Subhan Allah. It's so profound, man. That it just makes you understand this is very, uh, famous quote that only we, only have Allah subhana wa ta'ala. You know, this world is so temporary. I've got a new saying that I say to my wife and my friends. I say, "Every relationship is a bargain." Yeah. Every relationship in our life is a bargain. It's give and take, man. And when you realize that, then you automatically understand your role, and you understand that only Allah subhana wa ta'ala is there for us in every aspect of our life. Everything we need, only Allah cares. Allah never gets bored. Humans get bored. We get tired of each other. Even wives leave each life to husband. This guy's flipping. This guy's throwing me too much. And I'm just looking at his face, bro. He was going somewhere. I didn't do anything this time. It's his face, bro. He's just waiting. Yeah. Yeah. He's waiting. It's like he's waiting on edge, innit? This is one of the few times I actually didn't do anything. He's like a verbal boxer. He's not ready for that jab. Even my thoughts are. Anyway, listen. Rely on Allah. That's what you got from her tweet at the end of it.
Um, mine's a small quote. "In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity." And that's from Sun Tzu. In the midst of chaos, there's opportunity. Break that down for us. So, when things, you might think that everything is going wrong around you, but it may be that the circumstances are shaping you for something else. And often we will see calamity as being. You're going to make me laugh now. No, bro. You know, you're saying that though, you're saying that if I can try to say something that sounds very similar to, "Verily, with hardship, there is ease." Yeah. There is. Yeah. Subhan Allah. Sorry. And, and this is what it is. And you know how many times have you looked at your life and seen something that has happened in that manner that has changed you completely? Yeah. And it can change you for the negative. But if you look for the opportunity in that, there is that window. Yeah. And so that again trains you to have. Yeah. You know, that if Allah has done something, maybe this is not Allah doing it to me, it's maybe Allah doing it for me. And these are the perspectives that we have to kind of, you know, try our best to inculcate.
I think Dostoyevsky said as well in Crime and Punishment, he goes, "Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart." Yeah. Can you say that again, please? What did you say? Dostoevsky. He's like the top three authors on the planet. Tremendous. Of what is he? What did he talk about? Literature. Okay, cool. He's, he's an author. He talks fiction books like. And, uh, his things are, what is it? Most your tragedies in it. Yeah. Yeah. Because a lot of them, he wrote in, in. What was that? Um, the other guy, Kafka. Kafka's ones are tragedies in it. Yeah. Kafka's tragedy. Dumas is quite good as well. Okay. But his ones, they're not all tragedies, are they? A lot of them were coming from his own pain. Okay. You know, because he was, he was incarcerated for a long time as well. And so there's a lot of it was coming from, you know, solitary and being within yourself. Where was he from? Was he from the Soviet Union or something? Yeah. Russia. Okay.
Let's move on to our books. Okay. So my book is "In Defense of Islam" by Ali Atari. And his main thing is confronting the Christians with their own scriptures. So this book, it's a very simple book. He hasn't promoted it that much. Many people that have interviewed him, they don't even know that he's written this book. Frankly, I just like how simple it is. He just gets to the point. It's not waffly. It's not using big words, and the arguments are not very difficult. It's just very simple, easy read. And I don't often see books like that that actually equip you with what you need. So if you're a basic guy and you want the standard kind of arguments and that sort of stuff. May Allah preserve him. He's a powerhouse, mashallah.
Um, mine's not an Islamic book. I think from next week I'll bring an Islamic book because I feel like I'm. Don't, don't show the cover. Yeah, I'm not going to show the cover. So this is Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. I quoted from Mary Shelley last week. So you might want to hide. So I wanted to, um, Oh, yeah, sorry. Gosh. So, um, yeah. Put the glasses. Yeah, we can put. Yeah. Yeah. So this is Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Um, I quoted from last week as well. Um, anybody that suffers from like inward darkness, and many of us do. Sometimes we have thoughts that will take over now and then. We try our best to be as good as we possibly can. We're public-facing. We are one way at work, one way with our parents. Sometimes it's our spouses or our loved ones that get the other side of us. And sometimes we don't understand where that comes from. This is a really interesting book. She wrote it when she was 18. It's about a creature that she created, life that she wanted to create, and the creature then was deformed and was bereft of companionship, bereft of love. And often when we have that type of darkness within us, it's because something in us hasn't been loved, and it hasn't been, it hasn't been given that affection correctly. It's. Not been nurtured. Like. Exactly. So I think this is a really good book, and it's a classic. So I recommend people, people read. Listen.
Um, mine is "The Month of Ramadan" by Rajab Al-Ham. It's actually been, um, translated by a beautiful brother who actually gifted it to me, Dr. Zakaria. Alhamdulillah. He's from Manchester. A beautiful, a beautiful man. Alhamdulillah. Zakaria. Yeah. Zakaria. Oh, I thought he was a convert or something. No, Dr. Zakaria. Yeah. So, yeah. So alhamdulillah, he's a beautiful guy, and I started reading a few days ago, man. Getting ready for Ramadan. Alhamdulillah. And we're already, it's a beautiful month coming. Alhamdulillah. The month of mercy. Alhamdulillah. Don't know if it's going to save you, but. There we go. Let that darkness come over. Let it come out, brother. Come to the dark side. We're waiting here. It's nice and toasty. Let's. One thing that we're going to, inshallah, be focusing on in Ramadan mostly this year. It's obviously going to be an individual thing. I'm going to be focusing on the Quran. Um, I've come from Jahiliyyah, so I didn't study. My mom tried, but I didn't. So for me, it's very important that I'm going to be delving into it deeply, inshallah, and understanding. Sometimes we, when we're reciting, we know we're reciting, but we don't know what we're saying. So I want to understand it. I want to delve into it, inshallah, deeper. My aim is going to be to try and finish the Quran. But normally, when we say finish the Quran, it's normally in Arabic. Yeah. But this time, I want to finish it in English. Nice. Yeah. I want to clock it. Actually, in English. Um, I've got the whole English one. Without the Arabic, and I want to be highlighting. I want to be sticking in certain kind of, you know, those sticky notes that you can just go to certain pages, certain things that people will quote. Because one brother made a really good point. He goes, "How is it that a non-Muslim is going to come to you and tell you what's in your Quran, and you don't know?" Like, how, how is that even possible? And it's embarrassing. M. So, like, I speak to myself before I speak to somebody else. Like, that's not, that's not a position I ever want to be in.
Yeah. For me, it's slightly different. So rather than focusing explicitly on the Quran, I'm focusing on the one that the Quran was delivered upon. So the Prophet (peace be upon him), and how his will, how it kind of reflects in the day and age that we're living in. And so it's, I've got a book which is almost like a textbook that you can work through. So there's chapters that I've broken down into 30, and I hope to do this with my, with my family, and just go through it and ask them, and also reflect myself on this part of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Where do we recognize that within ourselves? Where do we see it in society right now? Because, you know, the Prophet (peace be upon him) is there to guide us, and the Quran is timeless. And so when you connect those two things together, that's a blueprint for us to take forward, and it will give us the answers to absolutely everything. We just have to find the answers.
Yeah. Okay. Oh. That's it, ladies and gentlemen. That's all we have time for today. Alhamdulillah. We covered a lot of very deep topics, from the quotes, from the choice of books, the advice of Ramadan, and most importantly, the implications of the Epstein files, some of the redactions, um, and their implications as well. Very, very important things. Feel free to watch it back. Leave your feedback in the comment section, and we'll join you again, inshallah. Until next time, Assalamu alaykum.
