How To Give Shahada in 10 Minutes (Part 3 of 8)

Uh always my least favorite part of the day is the part after lunch and I do always catch people dozing off so when you get sleepy feel free to get up refresh wo and come back again I've been saying that for years I've yet to see someone do it so if it doesn't work I'll crumple a piece of paper and throw it at you publicly embarrassing that work but if you do feel sleepy just get up refresh Wo and come back you know get coffee get tea water whatever it is you need to do um

and usually after the lunch break I'll I'll tell a poem I'll say one of my poems on food so just to get things started yet and I don't think I've said any poems before here right great we'll do another one tomorrow but today there was a friend of mine we used to eat together a lot so I wrote him this poem I said then oh and you can stop Recording we have I just leave so I said to him I see you coming in your girth eat and drink is what you were your only talk

is what to eat this type of chicken that type of meat this type of food that type of dessert you eat until your stomach hurts follow the Sunnah I'm sure you've heard fill with food to about the third but you eat the whole bird the whole chicken your only Sunnah is finger licking okay there's more where that came from I Only have two religious poems and five on chicken and no no Biryani yeah um there's a there's a DVD no a CD audio CD one of my favorites related to da it's by don't get me

started on that's all I have to say it's called a message from a new Muslim or message from a new Muslim all right you can get a hold of that it's produced by chinar If you can get a hold of that it's just superb superb City it's basically uh they what I like about it first of all is they did a study the chef made a study before he just made the tape he asked a lot of spoke to a lot of reverts you know and a lot of you know questions questionnaires and he found

out the things that they go through when they become Muslim and he put them in the in the audio it's his voice it's as if it's a Non it's a new Muslim complaining to the Muslim Community superb and these are actual problems that they go through message from a new Muslim puru um so you know if you can get a hold of that listen to it and and it will help you deal with with non-muslims better we were talking during lunch and they were telling us about how how some Muslims want to say the weirdest

things during Da remember one time this guy became Muslim so they had Anar for Ramadan on his in his honor and uh this this other Muslim other reever wanted to sit next to him and talk to him about the dean and stuff so he kept telling him and this guy just became Muslim like a few days ago he's telling him in Islam for some reason he just chose T to explain to this guy this new Muslim and this is how he worded it said in Islam when we can't find water to clean ourselves we Clean

ourselves with dirt and that guy was I see okay what kind of religion did I get myself to if I can't find water I take dirt and clean myself he doesn't understand it I mean you know it's it's just a quick WIP with the face and hands that's it this guy thinks maybe you got to take dirt and just pour it over your head so yeah so you listen to that tape discusses things like this so you know you discovered that as a community Really you know this whole da thing it's a community project and

it has to do with a lot of issues from from patience from from wisdom and so many times you know this this new revert might make a mistake in Salah and the uncle might smack him after the Salah because you know why did you do this thing correctly I became Muslim three days ago so our our commun is not even really ready and able to accept and receive these new Muslims and the complaints you know from I remember one time this guy took a sh in the Mas and just look within minutes the or all

the disagreements that he went through within minutes so the first guy came shook his hand congratulations becoming Muslim this guy came hugged him once congratulations becoming Muslim then the next guy comes hugs him three times and then then the next guy comes hugs him three times and he tells him the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam used to hug three times okay so then I I Was watching this poor guy the next guy comes and he starts hugging the guy three times and then he says three times right the guy tells him no once already he's going

all this you know or the thing about you know remove the gold and the guy becomes Muslim and is like tell him to take the gold off was telling is how some some rich guy became Muslim in the Philippines so he invited everyone to his mansion and so during the the dinner he's passing out you know Food drinks to everybody and there was guy sitting next to the tell him about the gold ring tell him about the gold ring he became Muslim in the morning this morning he became Muslim immediately you want him to to

take off the gold Rin but you don't even do things like that when it comes to you now a Muslim born Muslim practicing you tell me what you did is incorrect is actually inar and they resist they won't change and you want this guy to change His life overnight you know so there's a lot of wisdom involved with dealing with new Muslims message from a new Muslim if you can get your hands on that it's excellent um during the lunch break one brother said that one time he was lowering his gaze and talking to who

there were two women who was lowering his gaze and talking one of them kept laughing probably he assumes he was laughing at the idea that he was not looking at him so what do you do in a Situation like that I mean basically um okay well anyways uh what what do you do there do you just ignore the laughter or do you do you address it who would ignore it hands up who would address it and who's just Canadian okay all right so a lot of people are undecided right okay um those who would address

it what would you say yeah funny sorry Sh you teach kids or something you a second grade teacher or something Shar the joke with the rest of the class along with you okay ask the question see if they're fall but we're saying you said you would address it right yes so how do you address it I mean address directly I mean directly yeah yes sir I know I'm kind of funny with them but you don't have to laugh I like that I like humor with these things you know un like humor you Know like sometimes

people tell me things like you know well you know you know if it's just Wasing for the violence in Islam you know or you know you guys have to you know your religion commands you to kill people and I always say you know if our religion commanded us to kill people we wouldn't be talking right now I I don't do that part but I do say that I just added last part for last so um so good so I like that it's a joke it Could work very well you know funny uh anyone else anyone

else all right um now yeah go ahead do you like me to tell you you like me to tell you okay so that's you're going to address it directly because the brother had a decent hunch that she was laughing because he's looking he's l his gaze so then then address it look there is no script I mean I could never imagine myself standing in front of two people Well one of them is just giggling and laughing her heart out at me and I'm just not I'm just not commenting I'm following my script there is no

script I'll stop and find out what she's doing what you know what's the matter with you you know in a nice way so find out what it is there's no script here I mean I just can't to sit there and just someone giggling at me the whole time and I never address it and and maybe it's not the the the gays thing maybe I need to Find out what it is plus do you think someone who's laugh who's who ridicules you to the point where they're laughing at you might become Muslim probably not probably not

so let me fix that issue so if you think my religion is a joke because of what I'm doing most likely you probably won't become Muslim unless I address that issue so address the issue there is no script okay and address it however you want and and you would ask you know are you are you Whatever what you want to ask are you laughing because I'm not looking at you or you may ask what's funny you can you can say that may ask what's what's funny okay he um where was we don't all right now

I can easily take all the dudes reverse them and say these are the DS right I think there's only one repetition in here because there's something else about it so we already Discussed the first one second one don't use annoying approaches I'm going to skip the example there just a funny story but I'm skipping it don't be evasive is that the opposite of be straightforward it is right so why did I put it here again because when you're evasive it adds another you know what I mean but I say don't be evasive and someone ask

you a certain question about let's say the cross and the age of and then you don't answer that question you Move around to something else they catch that they're not dumb they'll catch that and they'll think oh I got him and his religion doesn't have an answer for this and they don't have a good explanation that's why so I'm putting it here because it adds another element when when you're not being straightforward you're being evasive it adds this other element that you you have a religion with a lot of holes in it you don't want

to address an Issue because you don't have a good answer for that issue I remember one time this was being evasive this guy says look answer my question wait wa I'll come to your question there's a building in the desert he has this analogy he loves he wants to use it even though it's not the appropriate place and that guy started to smirk like okay I got him he can't answer me that's why he's going on to something else so he thought in his mind I destroyed this Muslim they don't have any strong arguments they

just like us they're weak so don't be Evas um you know let see yeah so by the way like for example the the Golden Rule you apply that in that scenario you don't apply it in every scenario you know I might we might discuss I might tell you the story of this person and then I said this and they said that they became Muslim that's a specific scenario It happened to work now don't think like I said there's no formula no magic wand so don't think I can just take this because it worked here and

apply it over there it doesn't work like that and so U let's look at one issue with with um this is a true story actual question that came to me this man uh well actually he asked he asked a she this question question so he said um basically he has a non-muslim friend who said there's nothing wrong With fornication and things of that sort because as long as it's done with the consent of the participants and there's no problem with it so the Muslim then tried a DA technique from the prophet s so he tells

him would you and you know this the narration when the sahabi came he say would you accept that for your mother he said no would you accept it for your sister he said no know so he tolds him would you accept it for your mother he said sure I mean if she wants It would you accept it for your Center I sure if it happened to with their consent so the guy the Muslim was just he was dumbstruck this is a method of the prophet sallu alaihi wasallam and it failed how can the prophet's method

fail so who will put their hand up and tell us why this method did not work here yes that accept this or or but here the culture is different and people that they they Accept this issues so it doesn't excellent so the sister saying the culture is different and if we want to use instead of the word culture something bigger than culture that it would be Italian mentality is that what you're were saying mentality I didn't have I didn't know they had Italians in the araban like forgot about it but you got to like that

One okay so religion right the prophet used the technique with a Muslim first who understands understands understands obedience to Allah understands all these things and he was coming to get a like an allowance from the prophet but it worked because he had all these you know he knew jealousy Envy all these things he had that's why it worked here so the person the mistake the Muslim was making he took a method something that worked on the used it on a Muslim he was trying To apply it to a non-muslim the person said yeah he doesn't

know about Z being Haram punishment okay yeah if she's consenting she says yeah that's why didn't work so what I'm trying to say don't think you can take you know a technique or formula and apply it where it doesn't belong it'll probably work where it does belong but not where it doesn't belong yes I say even the was talking to non Muslim in This time in the Arabic culture they wouldn't accept also you're very right mother and and very right and I think you all know this sometimes you find books to exaggerate about was ramp

and stuff you know when the prophet came came to get the The Pledge from the women after the Conquering of Mecca amongst the things the conditions was that they do not commit Z so she Said free woman commits Z can you imagine in free woman didn't commit Z and now look what's happening to the Muslims so yeah that's very true so so that the culture argument does hold yeah but uh and I I use the religion more so because you know because now these arguments are just all over the place and you might find people

here and there from this culture making the same argument but mus it on a Muslim and here now this is a person living in This time different culture different religion so it won't won't necessarily be applicable just as is take it from here copy and paste you know right so uh that what I meant by that last Point let's not push in technique is that it's not really a technique it's just that an argument that when some when you're trying to get someone to to accept Islam because he has the ingredients or she has the

ingredients always a Muslim jumps in and stops you no no don't push Him do you see me pushing him you're the one pushing no one's pushing over here so I'm just talking to the person and you know I don't know how it works in Canada but in the States you really can't push people you can't they'll tell you you in so many ways that if they're not interested they'll tell you in French and they'll use sign language as well so it's not like you can push someone to become a Muslim force him to wear Goofy

and grow his beard and come To the Masid you can't so it's just and and I'm going to come back to this there's a theory perhaps why these people don't understand this um okay very good this is one of our discussion points at lunch never interrupt a person that's giving dawa and you don't do this when you have your Muslim awareness week and everybody's going to be involved in it even if you're not officially someone Standing behind the da table you're still involved in Muslim Awareness Week am I right yeah because you're inviting people to

it you're letting your classmates know about it you're inviting your friend you're saying everybody come even though you're not speaking you're not possibly giving da but you're helping you're part of this um part of this group in on campus so what happens is that a lot of people are excited everybody wants to give da everyone's Got this little fact about s in the Quran and they want to throw it in they've got five people in a circle around the non-muslim he's in the middle and then all of them are interrupting each other and he has

to follow all of them because Allah tells us to and he's just looking around everyone's saying one word and he's trying to who am I going to pay attention to or he might feel intimidated and everyone's interrupting and remember we said we're Not just throwing information at people like we described a month and a half ago that you're taking people through an organized thought process and so in order to do that I can't go go from here to here if you interrupt me take take us over there then you interrupt me again we go over

here and then I try to go to the next stage you take us somewhere else doesn't work like that and the story goes there there was this event in a Masid and I was trying to give da to Someone talking about to working my way to the prophets the pillars and there was this MD doctor and uh they uh this guy basically he had some scientific fact in the Quran about chlorophyll he wanted to he was he was itching just to get it out you know I thought Mah this will this will bring him to

Islam so I'm talking about he interrupts me and I don't know where the where the thought is that when no matter what I'm talking about what how does it work when you Just interrupt someone then they're giving that you interrupt you jump in with some some fact you know you don't do that with anything else in life you know anyways so this guy jumps in talking about chlorophyll in the Quran he was just waiting for me to breathe so he could interrupt me while I'm catching my breath about chlorop in the Quan now he's talking

about this the miracle of green chlorop the guy didn't knew looking just so white chlorop then I'm Waiting for him to breathe you mean he takes his breath I jumped in Im so anyways going back to our topic we're saying that this this that then he's waiting for me the minute I catch my breath he jumps in with about chlorop again how do I get rid of this guy so until finally I saw one of my partners cuz if the partner was there he would fix it immediately that's why it's so good to have a

partner none of my partners were there then I saw one of Them from the distance and all had to do was lock eyes and that's it I have to wink that's it the minute he saw me he knew what was going on he came immediately and pulled the doctor's side about the chlorop and then I talking about so uh so don't do this to each other don't interrupt you have a great Point you're itching to get it out guess why there's a thousand one other people you can go tell them about it you don't have

to interrupt this guy and you're Going to come and ruin my catch I worked hard and I caught this guy he was walking I caught him I'm stopp and talk to him you go catch your own guy you'll get your own Prospect and give him down all right but unless like what's a very good reason like they Overlook a certain point the prospect asked them a certain question but they didn't get it but you got it so you ask you fix or you answer that question that's a good reason to Interrupt someone um don't get

into a negotiation which is uh you know I think you I think alhamdulillah this next this new generation you don't have to deal with that too much but with all due respect to the older generation oh man they negotiate so much you have you ever been to an Interfaith with some older people it's a nightmare nightmare they have no clue how to run inner Faith you know and they just make it a negotiation where You know let's all go to Jenna hey we you go to Jenna I go to Jenna and they just start to

negotiate but of course we don't negotiate in the in Islam and Allah tell the prophet wasam what they wish that you would compromise with them so they would compromise with you but we don't compromise that's why we all know it came after the the offer they made we worship your God for a day you Worship Our God for a day then they said A week then they said a month then they said a year and you know after a year of worshiping Allah they're not going to go back to worshiping stones still the proph refused

because we don't negotiate I think it was another point about yeah I mean there's some things like I this story I always tell about how this guy you know he was addressing a bunch of imams and he said you guys Need to be creative in your da techniques and he told the story about how he used to go with a cfer friend and the cfer would ask for champagne he said I would get orange apple juice so he thinks I'm drinking champagne so he this and he said that's an Innovative way of giving da okay

I need to understand what's so innovative about that so this guy is supposedly going to become you know closer to Islam because you're getting boozed up or Something why would he want to become Muslim if he sees you drinking apples you see think oh he drinking champagne maybe I can become Muslim too why so uh but that's just again this people trying to negotiate trying to water down Islam make it look like Christianity and that might enti the Christians to join into Islam you know historically that has backfired sever L for Christians when it comes

to the Pagan Faith you probably you're aware That there are many Pagan practices in Christianity Today how did they come there the Christian du back then thought it was in the interest of bringing people into Christianity to make Christianity similar to paganism and Subhan Allah over the years the Pagan practice had lived and the Christian one die like you know Christmas you know bringing a tree and decorating it and all that stuff Pagan practice date 25th of December even Similar to a pagan goddess or Mithra or Mias that had the son and all that so

uh and then even though clearly in the Bible say says it's not permissible to bring a tree into your house and decorate it and all that so it's a b by their standards right and but again same thing with Halloween the Pagan practices are what lived and nothing Christian remains Easter so many things so the point is some Muslims try to do the same thing it doesn't work and it backfires So they try to water down Islam make it look like Christianity that might bring the Christians into Islam well guess what if you make Islam

look a little Christian and they have 100% Christianity why should they feel compelled to enter into Islam don't give up too quickly if the person you know seems uninterested and don't just give up too quickly and sometimes you know we we've encountered people that's were just Being you know sarcastic or or they were like you know smiling sarcastically things like that you keep going and Subhan Allah they end up becoming Muslim actually at the end of The Talk versus what if I saw him you know smirking and trying to be a wise guy and I

just walked away you know so it's it makes more sense keep going with it don't give up that quickly all right once you do give up I really can't tell you sometimes you give up a little bit Before you know think good things might have happened and sometimes you give up exactly at the right time but we'll discuss it more um fify information and again this is kind of like what happens at inner Faith they tell you you know Muslims believe that uh that the Christians will enter Paradise it says so in bak and the

Jews also will enter and then that that's We're falsifying information then the Muslim sits down the Christian gets up and says well we're all you know children of God and therefore I'll see you when you get to Paradise now we're all lying to each other here so and a lot of people they're confused they think that in order to coexist peacefully you need to agree there's no such thing you don't need to agree at all to live with people in in peace all you have to do is understand each other You know when you don't

understand each other there's the fear of the unknown when you know each other it eliminat it removes that fear that's the end of the story so you don't have to agree in order to live together peacefully just understand each other so if I lie to you and tell you we think you're going to paradise and we don't and then you lie to us and say we're all children of God we're all going to paradise and we're not that means we just we don't still we Walk out from that church or from that group building still

we don't know each other that's why you know make sure and exaggerate information something you may have heard this story by some Muslims Islam gives the women more rights than they're than they're given in the west right now that a true or false statement true it's false it's not true G crazy rights here that really don't even belong to them these rights they have given them these rights in the west Islam didn't give them these rights Allah gives them the rights that they that they deserve but they went overboard so it's not a true statement

it's an exaggeration we don't want to exaggerate we'll tell it as it is we don't need gimmicks ever to spread Islam but what I'm saying by change the method not the message it's that same message it comes to you through internet audio tape CD you know speaker live speaker microphones da in the street da at University whatever it is but the message is the same can come through video through radio but the message is the same but the method can change it's not a problem you know so like one because this came about one time

someone was telling me there's something wrong with the da table and and maybe we're not saying the right thing but if you're talking about and pillars you for sure are talking about the right thing maybe you need a different method that's it Something to attract them that but um yeah and I think we discussed that that's the that's the um the inner fith thing don't make misrepresent you know Islam says some okay what if someone comes to you and says you know what will happen what do you Muslims believe will happen to us Christians somebody

answer that question yes sir you're going to help okay thank you anyone want to word it differently same same meaning yes Sir sorry be resurrected you will not be resurrected they will be resurrected the Christians will be resurrected Mormons Mormons cuz if they won't be resurrected then you know it's not a bad deal as a Christian you have to deal with the day of judgment right yeah if you don't submit to the will of Allah it will not be accepted on okay good if you die woring more than one God okay good yes sir any

Christian Muslim Jew atheist or anyone who dies Associating partners with goding God Alone burn I like that you like what the brother sh is saying he added Muslim which makes it like it's not saying just you I like that never heard that before but it's good anyone else like that wow tough I like that thank you sir thank you very much it's nice okay sister in the back and then we'll come to you oh sorry sorry is that what you were Going to say he's saying that that you know you know anyone whether Muslim Christian

Jew or so who dies associating others in worship with Allah will go to the AL fire so he even put Muslim in there which is a true statement so he's saying it's not just us versus you but now let me tell you something most of the time when a Christian asks you this question for let's say it's a Christian they're really just trying to see what you're going to say they're just trying To see if you have the guts because they know the answer you think they don't know the answer do you really think they

don't know the answer you don't you do they know the answer more most likely why because they know that just about every Faith believes they're right and everyone else is wrong if they're right they're going to par and every else is going to the other place because if we the only ones who are right but we're all going to Paradise it really means we're all right they know this concept people it's not it's not going to be like well I never they know it they know it so they just try to say How brave you

are how you going to word it are you going to be diplomatic or not because if you ask them where are the Muslims going guys will burn in hell you know when the Rapture comes we'll all be race to the cloud the Muslims will be nuked and then when all the nuclear Stuff is gone we come back to earth and live peacefully okay that's nice let me tell you how it's going to go down anyway point is the point is um just in a nice way now we need to we need to note here that

you can't tell them where they're going right and in Islam we say in general you know you know Jews Christians will not go to Paradise but we don't say say this guy won't go to Parise and I can't say you know George Bush will go to the Hell Fire right I can hope but you can't for sure say this guy will go to that you can't but as a collectively as a group people who commit sh yes they will go to um uh don't make the comt with this this is a real one of the

DU made it's just really good if you tell them when you're kufur you'll be all right you go to paradise What's the need to for for them to become Muslim and tell you know the Quran says Jews and Christians will enter Paradise want to become Muslim well no you just gave me the Del that are un to Paradise so why should I become Muslim uh don't make a judgment based on looks have you ever have you ever done that you looked at someone said then I want waste my time with him you ever done that

anybody just a few people okay what do That person look like that you want to share and what what was it about them homeless guy n a homeless guy okay homeless guy okay about you same thing okay anything beyond homeless that you just felt yes sir there's a person this Gothic kind of thing black on black black nails black teeth everything yeah what CLM classmate what was about their look that made you just not his teeth his Teeth what are you doing a dental commercial guy has you know roted teeth you won't give him da

you don't want to talk to him maybe had bad breath I don't want to give him da by the way take tax are your friend when it comes to that one have mercy on people okay all right so you know so you know what remember the beginning that you just have to direct people to the truth that's your job doesn't matter what they look like doesn't matter and The example I give because this guy really looked extreme we were at the million family March this guy tall pale white guy big guy wearing a sleeveless shirt

got tattoos from his neck all the way to his wrists you all kinds of devils and all kind of weird things he's got you know his front fourtieth old gold he's got bandanas piercings anywhere you could put one on your face all right and white contact lenses white contact just imagine what this guy looks Like pale all the blue and white contct lenses gold and piercings he's walking like this and I saw I took a look at him I saw him coming and then I looked over here I saw a man and his wife I

saw the bird singing I saw the butterflies why would I waste my time with this guy I actually looked at I said I'll have time for the Shan and I went over to these guys and I spoke to them for a little bit when I turned my head a brother was calling us to hear Him take the shahad he said I got out of bed today searching for Allah that's what he said got out of bed searching for Allah and he just Allah brought him to some Muslims giving dawa he became Muslim quickly and then

he was telling us this he said look I don't want to just do this right now and forget about it he says I want to become a a good Muslim I want to learn to pray I want to become an excellent Muslim I lost out on that good shahada because I'm in a judgment based on looks so I you know I learned from that no matter what the person looks like I'm going to give him D I don't care if they have a telephone pull through their nose I'll get okay got that joke huh all

right let's look at some of the techniques we have in the room here um what if you're giving D like you Don't have a partner it's like Isam weend it's uh every it's all makes many people uh and another brother comes like you're you're talking to a non-muslim and another brother comes and just observes he's just there he's not he doesn't interrupt he doesn't he just sits there and problem no problem one guy right yeah not another guy comes I think maybe three probably at least in the states three is not pushing it too much

I don't know what it is in Canada But you know three is not bad but if what if you see four or five and you're alone right but someone across the room from the other table sees five people in you around someone he might actually go to them he knows there the other four are spectators might pull them aside and say look we don't want more than two people crowding around one person that's it but if you know what if five people crowd you have no partner and so on and so forth what are you

going to Do s I just I just uh I'm just thinking is it I know we can't make it a rule to only have oneone but I feel like culture here people get offended or intimidated more than one person because it's the it's what the Mormons do you know they always Trav with the two and it could be like a like a battle you know what I mean it's like they have two people have the upper hand know they're outnumbered what is your opion well I would advise You to not take my opinion on it

I would advise you to to test it out and to see how that works and um and you might even do a survey with Muslims as well you know do you feel uncomfortable because you guys are Canadian you feel uncomfortable when two people talk to you and because right now we're just we could go off of your hunch and my hunch but let's let's test it and see um I don't know Canada well enough but I'm I'm hoping that two is not really a big Problem what do you okay what are the rest of you

people feel two is a problem put your hand up three is a problem put your hand up four is a problem put your hand no problem put your hand any number okay uh you want to add something yes the like like people here like like they're much more um emotional like the last time someone like came up right to my face and just started like like like being honest and straight up he was Actually Australian he was just going to school here wow okay all right what I meant by that is uh it was actually

me who feeling uncomfortable oh yeah you're the sensitive one excuse me it's just like you're you get a sense it's like okay what are you doing here you're going to make him feel uncomfortable and I'm just waiting for uh the the brother who spectating just to jump in with some random Point yeah I know what you're talking about And actually to be honest with you I feel uncomfortable like that as well especially now when you know oh let's see what brother Kamal is saying at this guy they're expecting me to be saying some you know

laying down the heavy stuff on the guy and they and you see all these brothers are so smooth like I'm talking over here the non-muslims over over there see a brother trying to Edge in like this like you know just another guy reading the paper right There what are you expecting me to say I'm saying the exact same stuff I'm telling you right here there's nothing new you know remember one time went to New Jersey get the da workshop on a Saturday Sunday we went out to some Street da broke into groups and stuff and

we come back we reconvened at the end of the day and all the groups the pairs that were telling you know what their experence the number of basically they it was a number of days back then So one guy it was a young kid and you know he attended the workshop and everything and and he's just waiting for my group to say what the number so this this group one sh this group two shad and I'm watching this little kid and then it came for our group okay brother come on your group and then this

kid was just like waiting anticipating and we said zero and this kid was brother come hold talk yesterday this is the technique and zero sh yeah It's not magic it's not like I've got something phenomenal that I didn't tell you that you got to sneak up behind me and hear it oh that's how he does it remember Allah does the rest you do your part yes sir question is say lot of people ra this question about so if you're saying that you don't want to be and stuff like that you address it how Do you

address the issue not being evasive I'm talking maybe just to give an example specific on this issue right okay let me let me we're all these issues we're going to come and answer them inshallah what I'm trying to do right now is tell you that if someone does ask you a question about an issue you address that issue don't try to run around and Escape it how we address the issue that's when we're going to discuss later on but for now what I want you to Know is if someone asks you a question don't escape

it it looks very bad so answer the question you might say well I don't know the as we're coming to tomorrow I think in yes sir what about having more than non-muslim more than one non-muslim what about having more than one wife what did you say yeah just kidding sisters kiding I love how when I do these things all my jokes like most of the sister just don't Find them fun go ahead uh what about having more than one non-muslim listening to you like uh two fine fine but if they start to you know affect

each other with their negativity it's to good to SP them apart if you can but if you can't fine talk to them you can talk to 50 at one time if you want to it's not an issue yet you know it's not does anybody have to address each every one of them yeah it's sometimes not everything is within your Control you know it's not like you can always get the ideal da situation sometimes you start talking to one guy and he's actually there with 19 of his beer buddies and they're all hammered or whatever what

are you going to do now you can't always get it the way you want so just you deal with your situation you know I have two questions the first one is that when you are talking about like going out in grips what is the minimum number of brothers are actually going in One group and the maximum number they break up into groups of two pairs okay one two that's it but your whole crew you let's say you took a bus of 50 people to hit this let's say Central Park in New York big place and

then they break up into groups of two that's it okay but then when you come back you're reporting to one Amir or something or or we're just sharing you can have an air if you want but we're just talking about we all sit down I usually insist that The DU come and sit and talk after the event because if we're at 10 groups and we all spent one hour out there if I get the the you know this person says this group tells us the report this guy asked us this tough question this is how

we answered it or how do you think we could have answered it then we all put our you do the in so when you share when all the 10 groups talk about their 1 hour of experience it's as if you got 10 hours of experience from their feedback that's Why by the way if you look at any salese in the audience men or women great now um I don't know which kind of environment you work in but a lot of times uh you'll find that within a sales team or sales force they have the short

cubicles the cubicle wall doesn't extend above the desk purposely they do that for the sales team why they want the sales team to talk together they also sometimes give them breaks companies where it's you know all sales oriented They give them lunch break together they want them to talk so they can share different techniques so we use the same technique with Dua I want to hear your experience I'll learn from it you know and you know I'll learn your way and that's why honestly that's why tomorrow I will ask you how you would answer the

question and so many times I would hear such a perspective that I never considered before you know over the years I've got some excellent responses Things I never never considered so I benefit from your experience and you benefit from my experience and then just like the sales team the sales Sports so um so that's second question is like do you have some sort of like Arrangement just like for the brothers do you also recommend the same stuff for the Sisters as well or yeah I mean most of the things that we're talking about today and

tomorrow can be done by brothers and sisters okay Um like I wouldn't recommend sisters have a weekly or a daily table in front of a metro station or bus station you know but I mean I would recommend they do that in a probably a school or a safer Place something like that but generally for the most part most of the things that the men can do the sisters can do sometimes there are some things to tweak here there was another question yes Sister I this as much of a question but in my personal experience Canada

a lot of times they're really afraid to offend whenever they want to ask question always like I don't need to offend and I find that they're a lot more anxious I don't know how to get them I let them know that it's always okay to ask but that's it that's the right way I me there's nothing you can do beyond that you just let them know no no no no question is offensive or no Question is that is not a good question and and I'm here that's what I'm here for feel free please to talk

to me just like that use their name do all these things smile do all these things that will get them to try to try to open up to you a little bit so that's it there's nothing beyond that that I know of that you could do okay um let's look at some creativity over here you know handshakes I'm talking about men with women and women Shaking hands with men what are your ways of avoiding handshakes share with us yes sir I just you serious huh you know that's actually one of my jokes that I tell

you because um there's a guy who said that said you know when woman comes I start going he's like hi who are you you know so now she doesn't want to try to shake that hand so you actually do sneeze huh okay good can you do a good sounding not Now but can you do a good sounding sneeze no cuz my sneeze my fake sneeze sounds really fake you know I don't think but if you could do a pull off a good one and you put glue between your hands so when you you're very convincing

right other techniques yes sir have can in your pocket and you give it to okay all right so you must walk around with a full bag of all the time you know anytime you see a woman sir This I improvised uhhuh my friend improvised it and I used a lot okay comes uh to take Islam my culture they not allowed to shake hands hands except uh their wife I mean if their husband them or us if the husand is besides them actually even then can't happen but okay but so what the brother's doing he's going

now the other route the explaining so now let's hear Specifically some explanations some just explanations for now how would you explain it verbally brother told me at a job interview he just said because of Islam's respect for women I don't shake nice because of Islam's respect for women I don't shake hands with women nice what else verbally verbally now yes sir I don't believe I have the right to touch oh there you go where' you get that from huh listen what's that just a CD I Listen through a while really yeah his name you might

know him actually this uhhuh the course is called you're joking right you're joking right no I got that from you okay all right now all right uh yeah so this brother is a poet and he words it so nicely he says I don't have the right to touch you and so you know people are like wow oh I didn't know is that special you know it's very nice what are the Explanations can't hear you I said this brother says I don't have the right to touch to women and they feel that very honored and respected

it's it's kind of nice he doesn't have to go through the whole list and you know but we can you know aunts we can shake hands with uh you know cousins know but so it's kind of nice and quick and and at the same time very you know I don't know what the word is not romantic but flowery anyone else yes sir I just said Please forgive me I like you man please forgive me just don't all right okay good what else and how how does that work for you um she just smil you know

yes just the question what about if it's a reverse forist I'm waiting for sists to say something what do you say because you could say the same things you know in Islam we're not allowed to touch and shake hands with the opposite you know yeah go ahead I I don't take okay and that that will work I think most people will understand that so it's a religious thing and you're politely apologizing that you're not going to be shaking my hand they'll accept that yes we are gloves sorry no still even if you're wearing gloves just

now of course please and I know one time I asked what are we're trying to think of creative Alternatives one time some guy put his hand up said well so and so gave a f it's okay I understand That there's a f for everything we're trying to be creative Beyond I'm not trying to be rude I'm just trying to say we're trying to be creative beyond the F because like it just said in the beginning avoiding handshakes so and so said there's a f you can shake hands okay next point but I'm trying to be

creative here beyond the yes sister okay so maybe the sister saw that these are a little apologetic and even though other others amongst us might see It as just an explanation but you might have something you know more of an explanation and according to you less of an apology if you if you do then feel free to use that um if you feel that yours is a bit apologetic you might you know Kick It Up on notch or something like that yeah I say I don't to offend sh okay very nice yes sir or just

give herl keep her hands busy uhhuh very good yes explanations I don't think I will have any problem the same thing That the brother said I was taking a class uh here in Cal and I had a Jewish guy sitting beside me all beer practicing Jewish and the teacher was trying to shake his hand because we were playing a role MH and he told him I'm very sorry not to offend you but it's religious purposes I can't shake your hand Jewish person right beside me good so I don't think it's any problem excellent and then

when she came to shake your hand you said I'm his Cousin apologize uhhuh there you go excellent very good excellent now very good very creative Crow there are some other people who used um who were saying that you occupy your right hand who said you said that yeah you gave her you give her something and that's another method that we that were taught at this company he said when it was a Muslim company so they said if woman extends Her hand to shake your hand you put your business card in her hand then you bring

the you turn the her attention to the card so and it works so wonderfully so she extends her hand you say well you know I'm Kamal that's my name that's you turn the attention to the card because if you just give her the card she might take it and then put her hand what do you do so and we used to walk around that Company we have cards everywhere I mean I had cards here here go like this a card would pop up because you know suddenly someone would come in then we used to ask

them did you notice that I didn't shake your hand and they would actually say no I didn't notice did not notice kind of like what brother Shir was doing earlier with you know look looking it's as if you're looking but you're not they won't even probably not even notice it um and here same thing we Ask did you notice I didn't shake your hand they would say no well actually because of Rel religious reasons and you explain and because of that now you've explained and saved yourself from the goodbye handshake so it works well so

if you had do have a pamphlet fine and what if you don't have a pamphlet you can do this other thing where you you occupy your right hand and you don't make any effort to free up your right hand and so and you start the greeting because There's a greeting with the handshake and there's one without so if you come up to someone like this they might expect that you quickly free up your right hand and shake their hand right but what if you come up to them like that for example they say Hi how

are you I'm the one who called you on the phone my name is so and so and you're doing this like very clearly I'm not or suppose even your left hand's in your pocket I'm not making any effort to Free up my right hand you know and you will actually see see them they will look at your hand and then they start to free up the right hand and then they leave it alone you know um I used to work somewhere a lot of sales people would try to come and and get our business and

one of them a lot of time saleswoman would come and you would see them because part of Sal is that firm hand ship and I would occupy my right hand and they would start to put the Folder on the other hand then they see I'm not making any effort to free my right hand and they just talk and they even say goodbye without trying to so you can there are ways where you can even stop someone from initially putting their hand out psychologically also now as the brother was saying when you have your wife with

you or your husband with you there's no need to to shake the other person's hand because your wife will save the day if a woman lunges at You and if a man you know tries to you you save the day so said your hand here grab his hand and then from there you go in you just want to stay awake after lunch that's all um all right so that's as far as the handshakes how about how about um anything else that I forgot with the handshake Out to shake your they feel like disrespecting them by

not doing and that's why you try to keep your explanation as nice and sweet as possible and in the end what are you going to do if you're one of those people who want compromise there what are you going to do you going to I would rather offend them than offend the LA at some point you know go ahead I think these things people have a lot more cultural sensitivity much more yes and Actually they would be more interested a lot of times when I say start i c can oh really why and then they

actually ask CU especially their business people because they don't want to offend someone else later on right very good excellent so it's very true yeah go to an Arab country and you refuse to shake a woman's hand oh the things that you hear what am I a dog huh am I impure huh matter with you Kar don't say these things to me you're saying this to me And and uh one time uh true story go ahead youlim are Muslim and they shake hands what are you areed well yeah and actually I found that Muslims just

affected by refusing to shake their hand more yes that's true that's true so basically what if what if sometimes you you refuse to shake a woman's hand she says well I Have a lot of Muslim friends and uh they shake my hand tell them well they're different I'm actually a kind of Muslim I'm called fundamentalist wahabi [Music] mus just kid what are you going to do right I mean one time I went to work somewhere and the lady said you have to shave your bead I said no she said said well my boyfriend is Muslim

and he shakes his beard so he's got a girlfriend and you're using him as an Example a role model now so you deal with these things all the time true story I won't say the shef's name though respectable scholar and woman young girl became Muslim so she says I want my mother to meet you tomorrow he said fine just let her know that we don't shake hands in Islam with women so the next day the girl brought her mother and her mother came to the sheh and she said my daughter tells me you guys don't

Hug the sh sometimes they don't get what it means yet you know one time so when when you give da who likes to use the name Allah put your hands up okay and who likes to use God more and who uses both excellent and who gives no da whatsoever keep your hands okay so look uh I I mean I love to use Allah but I also use God it's not an issue but there are two things I want to Talk about very quickly on this point one why some Muslims don't like to use Allah and

two the benefit of using Allah some Muslims don't like to use Allah because they think the non-muslim might think Allah is some other God so no this is going to be happening for a while oh okay anyways some Muslims think that if I say Allah they might think I'm talking about some other God so the answer to that the remedy to that is just a quick 15 second Disclaimer so you just say so Allah Sent His prophets and by the way Allah means it's the same it just means god in Arabic it's the same God

of the Christians the same God of the Jews it just means god in Arabic and if you go to a church in any Arab country the Bible says Allah and they say in church Allah understood understood that is that's the end of the problem that's it and by the way there are very few people who if any who believe this whole Moon God thing so most of the time people understand that Allah is God it's just the name of God in Arabic explain to them like that and you can feel free to change your inner

and go between using Allah and saying God as well the thing the advantage of saying Allah is that it sets you apart from everybody else that Jehovah's Witness knocked on their door and said God you know this person you know the Mormons knocked and they said God and when you say God you sound like The you know you need to submit to God well I do submit to God you need to submit to Allah feels like I need to move towards Allah it will set you apart in your speech from everybody else you know I

mean I know you don't say Lord but imagine you said you need to submit to the Lord just oh you sound so Christian now but any anything quickly there on the Allah part so there no rule that says you have to use Allah you have to Use God use both but if you're afraid that you might misunderstand who Allah is give a quick disclaimer quick explanation yes fine fine you can we can go even further from but just whatever if brief will suffice alhamdulillah if not you can up it up to you saying that in

Arabic Bible the word God has been mentioned as Allah yeah yeah okay um okay clothing and this is I'm trying to get something else out of The discussion Point number three suppose I'm going to give Street da not that I do but suppose I'm giving Street da uh well you know I don't know if this works for Canada this question or not but let's let me take you to the US you can just guess here all right I'm not really interested in what the answer I just want to get to another Point suppose we're going

to give da in Washington DC should who how many people think it would be more effective if I put on some white th versus some pants put your hands on that th is more effective how many people think it's more effective if I put on pants and a shirt hands up okay those who didn't put their hands up I don't know what you're wearing for that one now you maybe you think well both are probably the same who thinks they're both Equal okay you know what we found from Collective years of of Collective I said

not just I'm not saying is what I found a lot of Dua over the years we found there isn't really much of a difference not really now I know someone now is thinking well I can think of a scenario where if you're wearing a th you could get shot probably is a scenario like that and at the same time I can think of a scenario where if you were a th you come off as more uh what's the word I'm Looking for credible yeah so the truth is yeah there could be some weird scenario but

in general we didn't find much difference you know that but actually believe it or not the the slight Edge we found in that scenario that I mentioned not saying put on a th and stand in North Courtyard but I'm saying in that scenario that I mentioned we actually found that there's a slight advantage to the th believe it or not because people Think of you as a little bit more credible and think of you as a clergy within your religious system someone with rank even though we don't have rank and at the same time the

th also brings you da now remember I said that one time and one guy said that that's just can't believe that and he next Friday he's wearing a thob and some non-muslims said hey so tell me what is this about what is this religion so the th does bring you dawa and you know I remember one Time I was at a restaurant this lady came to me she said are you a rabbi said yeah I'm a black Rabbi all right can you be aggressive sometimes in da yes really who says yes put your hands up

who says never put your hands up okay you can be aggressive sometimes who can give us an example from the prophet when he was hard one time yes sir when was coming to Him came to the wasn't he aggressive with him didn't he grab him and Shake him don't do it next week please Shake anybody but so any other times you can think of in the was it yeah is that right okay I didn't know that okay any other thing you became Muslim no there wasn't it wasn't it was actually very gentle with him very

gentle he told him that I want to see your face again no no it Wasn't like that it was like I don't want to see your face again it was actually the prophet because he's the prophet of Allah didn't want to do any Injustice to so he said make sure I don't see you just so that because the prophet was so hurt by what did that the pro because this is the prophet of Allah people he didn't want to even Grimace or lose a smile If he if he was smiling and he saw and the

smile disappears out of the Prophet of Allah that's very very harsh and very hurtful so the prophet was so deep detailed and delicate that he didn't even want to frown at the face ofi if he ever saw him because when he seesi he will remember the hurt his face will change that's how detailed the prophet was he didn't even want to affect him that much that's why he told him you know don't let me see you he didn't mean you become Muslim but I don't want to see your face ever again That's not how the

cont so it was actually very gentle from the prophet anyways the idea is sometimes there like the debate debate is in the sense d and he's a little aggressive you know I think I tell the story of the the drug dealer in DC you know we're trying to give him that one he's just being so arrogant this guy he's talking to us about bricks and you know what bricks are somebody knows what that is cuz he kept telling me Allah give me a brick if I become Muslim said what's a brick he said a brick

of cocaine apparently that's the wholesale item and then they break it down into the retail ah you have to bear with me ah heard all these jokes before I recycle jokes you know it's good for the environment so um anyway so we we got really aggressive with this guy I mean he was just constantly making fun of us had his Beer in his hand I said oh yeah all right so I started to let him have it about the questions in the grave and so on and so forth when we left he was just standing

just like this was you couldn't speak you know you had to as the brother said had to shock him out of his comfort zone anyway so sometimes it could be sometimes but generally it's da it's an invitation it's nice it's sweet it's kind it's you know it's gentle and you know some of the best du that we know They're the best because they care was the best because he cared even when they harmed him he could have retaliated he cared and I mean that might sound a little bit you know or whatever but it's actually

the truth those who care they're the best du one of the best du we had in DC used to say these are my people I love them and I want them to come into Islam that's why he worked better than we did CU he cared all right what's our time looking Like uh is it break we have 3:40 3:40 and we stop at 5: so um so how about this then 350 we'll take a 10-minute break and start it for okay so ahed will be the timekeeper okay walkway points you'll know what they are I

can't give you any any guidelines whatsoever you know maybe if some yeah sure if someone's intoxicated you walk away if they're crazy you walk away for sure if they just want to Simply Argue remember the point so just want to argue for the sake of arguing you might want to break it off and say well you know it was nice talking to you this is some reading material and we're here here you know for the rest of this week give you know the same place feel free if you have any questions and you break it

off right but I'm also afraid to tell you give up too quickly because there's one sister she used to never give up and she would send Me a message with her partner you know come help me out I just look if he's being difficult leave him and go on to someone else but she doesn't and then every time I look she's still giving da and then in the end they're calling me to tell the guy here say the shahad so I learned from her don't give up too quickly know so you'll have to figure it

out the time when you walk away but when do you walk away exactly you'll you'll know when you walk away Question sorry I can't hear you if you're bu R they're actually asking something to if they're intoxicated yeah ask okay well I mean there's uh I mean I guess we need to Define how I mean I hate to use these terms but we have to let's say determine if the person is tipsy or hammered or wasted all these other terms that they have so if it's just Tipsy yeah I think you could probably keep I

mean as as a Brother I know I can't give you a f but as a brother if someone's a bit tipsy you keep keep talking to them if they're with their mental faculties are there they understand what you're saying if they're a little Beyond if they're beyond you know understanding and tomorrow they won't recall any of this don't waste his time I don't care what he's asking about you know tell me about the for for sure some other time you know so I wouldn't waste my time if Someone is beyond the point of comprehending what

I'm saying but as a sister especially I mean I think in your scenario you didn't say that you're alone with the person right CU I would say get out of there and is drunk already that's not a good situation but if yeah it's a public place he's a little bit beyond comprehending what you're saying don't waste any time you know say you know contact the MSA tomorrow when you sober Up take a cold shower drink some coffee then talk to somebody else what else is the uh okay you know that if you look at the

ayat that mention da they all say like look at this verse right call to the way of your lord whoever calls to Allah so when it says it's telling you it's an indication that there is there because you're calling to Allah and when is for Allah it's not about you it's not about your ego you don't get personally offended if someone and this is the key if someone refuses to take your pamplet you don't get upset if someone you know you know makes an argument and he's just trying to you know and he's got an

ego and he says something that attacks your pride you don't get offended because it's all about Allah it's all for the sake of Allah that's why is the most important Part in your da the most important thing but of course it's also one of the most difficult things as well so set out doing it for the sake of Allah the whole week this whole week is for the sake of Allah I'm calling to the religion of Allah to the de of Muhammad so therefore if the person refuses I did my job okay it's not about

my reputation as a that I'm going to be the best out of the students that I have the largest number of Shas that's why this whole number Thing doesn't work not only does it push you to get cheap quality Shas for the sake of counting the numbers but it's not about you it's about the religion of Allah that's why if there's so many things won't won't matter so many things won't matter your title the name on the poster all these things don't matter if it's for the sake of Allah so the good news is you

can always refresh your ni and renew your Nia in Islam so for Example you're you decide okay for this whole week I'm going to be giving da with the MSA Islam awareness week it's all for the sake of Allah Tuesday things start to creep into your right because you got one or two Shas and then all the brothers are like wow you're the best amongst us and we all want to spend some time and learn from your techniques and get some your some of your bar and all that so now Things start to get to

your head good news is Tuesday night you can refresh your intention renew your intention for Wednesday morning and so constantly don't let the Shan come to you from this door always refresh your intention renew your intention remind yourself that it's about Allah it's for the religion of Allah it's not about you your reputation or what have you so um you know what are the uh can I see the the first Slides thank you sir can I look can we go to the first page slide number two look at that verse Allah says in that verse

so you cannot guide the the blind from their strength you know you only you can only cause them to hear you know the the proofs the aat you can only cause them to see these signs or to hear these signs or to know these signs that's your job to direct them to that To let them know that I'm sorry can I see that and uh we said that one it's for the sake of Allah and at the same time you know the third slide there on the last one on that page you see the rewards

you know if you see the rewards of Da and it just keeps multiplying and it keeps going on and on if you bring one person to Islam you know one there's one brother is very business-minded and he showed me this Idea that he had of and if one if two people become Muslim or one person become Muslim and he marries and and they have children they rais them upon Islam within 10 years the number of their if suppose each you know they just get two children the number of offspring that and reward that will be

related to you it's phenomenal within 10 years how many people have become Muslim because of you and your reward keeps going then he does it like within 50 years Within 100 years and comes up to be a huge number of people you're in your grave and you're still getting good reward you know now and but what if we the prophet said for Allah to guide one person through you is better for you than the whole world and everything that's in it or better for you than the best of wealth if we really felt that how

much that would we do if we really felt that or that your reward keeps multiplying and multiplying you teach One person Salah you get reward every time they pray and then they teach 10 people Salah you get reward every time these 10 people or these totally 11 people pray now if there was a stock that worked like that if a brother comes to you said there's a stock and it's going to multiply just like your a same way but you have it's going to close in one hour you have to put everything you can in

you act like crazy to put get gather all your money and put it in Because it's going to multiply so much what if we really felt like this about the Hadith and our when we give doubt how much we really give we give a tremendous amount of doubt so try to take these things to heart do it for the sake of Allah do it seeking the rewards with Allah let me see good like what if someone is being very argumentative with you huh five minutes Okay what are ways you can stop someone from arguing with

you just like that guy you know yes sir basically asking him like what's your main issue like something like just to clarify what what he wants to go go about and then answer that question things like that okay that's nice I've never heard that break like saying something or maybe just make him like make him not confident about his arguments something like say I didn't Understand what you're talking about the whole time like I didn't understand your point you pleas go back or something maybe I can caly back what he was saying so that he

stops so everything you say he argued you know so you say there is one God how do you know we have well how do you know that's how do you know this how do you know what if they just arguing with you so much so good okay so you're saying what what's what are you really looking for what's your issue huh But yes repas what he says to you sorry repas what he says to okay but what but it's not just he's just repeating one argument he is which is your right if that was the

case if that were the case but here he keeps whatever you say he's just jumping on it and they actually took us to a place like this one time these people were arguing over every little point and we just came up with one sentence every time we say it it would stop arguing yes sir I would say I Don't understand what you're saying okay and that would stop it from arguing and okay yes what you what do you hope to gain what do you have to what do you hope to gain huh what you hope

to gain from arguing with me like this huh okay anyone else sisters someone keeps arguing with you yes just tell them you're wrong you're wrong huh wow okay you married sister that's kidding I push it sometimes it just come Out the husband in their is probably I don't know that sister now we know what you go through at home you're always wrong back with him like you tell him like there's one God he's like how do you know that I'll be like how you know mhm okay you throw a question back at but they but

they're still going to keep going how do you stop them from being argumentative yes you can just say why don't you think about what I told you And I'll think you're saying and then we can I like that very nice never heard that one before yes sir argue back argue back you're trying to stop him from arguing you argue back you're actually letting him win now H I'm answer some questions what do you think why do you think we do this uhuh nice I like that why do you think we're doing this huh one just

tell straight up not to Oh I like that we can't we just you missed it h On he said just say I'm not here to argue and that's what we were doing this was Austin Texas they took us to this place everybody was arguing the minute you just start to speak they argue with you so we were just we were just ending it the whole day we're just telling people look I'm not here to argue with you and they would say me neither go ahead what if you tell I mean look what are the chances

you tell someone look I'm not here to argue and they say well I am there's not much of a chance but if some because one time it did happen to me actually I thought I was all smart I said I'm not here to argue he said I am so well that makes life easy for me because if you're only here to argue then we can't get anywhere because you're just going to argue if I give you a truth you're going to argue so let's do this this was a coworker so I said Let's do this

this at another time when you really want to find out what the truth is okay I don't want to argue that I ended it because he just told me look I'm going to be a jerk today so okay I'll end it but what the brother said tell them look I'm not here to argue most people especially the stranger would say well they us should tell I'm telling you we did it a number of times at that one place and they would say I'm sorry go ahead like I'm me neither go Ahead you know that's it

you start arguing you you they you lose you did what they wanted you to do there's another way also you can just totally ignore the fact that they're being argumentative just take your take it you just take your time or let me finish the point and now like that yes sir perhaps you give them analy that could analogy of C you FP it upside down You P water water won't get oh so you're telling that's an analogy to deal with argument arguing argumentation okay great you can give that analy as well very nice um okay

so let me let me H oh it's time to take a break sorry all right it's uh it's break time um this is this is not Salah time this is a 10-minute break okay does the sisters want this break for me at all or I can Just do what I do okay I mean yeah yeah the organizers they were saying they were going to pray after we're done at 5 yeah that's okay with everybody then we'll do 1 hour then we'll do so this is a break 10 minutes and there we go and I'm going
