This Ramadan, you have the opportunity to volunteer for the SPOT charity and meet
the children here at Chamya Academy and meet the orphans here SPOT academy. Sign up for the 2K challenge
this Ramadan. Assalamualaikum, guys, and welcome to another episode of Smile2Janaah.
I thought we are in need of a W. We are in need of an inspiring
story, and which other nation to step up to the mark than Indonesia? So Indonesia was offered
the under-20s 2023 football World Cup. It's the fourth biggest population on the planet and the
most Muslim majority country. So it would have been fantastic for them. In fact, it was the
biggest sporting event that they would be hosting. So it was economically and in terms of culturally,
it would be really good for them. However, FIFA has stripped them of this privilege. Why? Because
they refuse to host Israel, whom they do not have diplomatic ties with. In other words, they do not
recognize Israel, and they are on the side of the Palestinians. Now, before you start making excuses
because you're a self-loathing Muslim that just goes with the tide and makes excuses just so you
can fit in with the Western way of thinking, to such a degree that you end up compromising
pretty much most of your faith, and it's still not good enough, mate. Let's look at Russia,
who were banned by FIFA and UEFA to participate in these tournaments. Was there any outrage?
Were people stripped of their right to host the World Cup? No, none of that, mate. In fact, FIFA
themselves were involved with this decision, mate. In fact, you can see cases in which people refuse
to shake hands with Russians. That's okay. You do the same with Israel, that's a problem. If this
isn't the epitome of selective outrage, I don't know what is, mate. So, as long as you're outraged
about something that the West is outraged about, and that's all right, mate, yeah, you're moral,
you're strong, mate. Stand up for those human rights, yeah, they're there. They've been hiding
behind Palestine. Just move those Palestinians, those Uyghurs, and the Kashmiris, yeah,
move them out the way, flamin nora mate. Yeah, this display of human rights was being obscured by these
killed and maimed Muslims. Flamin nora mate, do they not care about us and our love for human
rights? So, guys, this is a W, this is inspiring, and although I posted it on my community (post), I really
wanted to make a video because unfortunately, and sadly a lot of us become despondent about the
oppression of Muslims. But guys, I reiterate this, and I want to reiterate this again, Allah will
not ask you about the results. Allah will ask you what you did. It could be as simple as boycotting
(Israeli) dates, yeah here in the UK. You go to any High Street supermarket and you see Medjoul dates, those big
juicy ones. They're not gonna have the country of origin there, and if you look at the ISBN,
it's going to be 729, which means that they're from Israel. But a lot of Muslims have fallen into
this trap, and I nearly fell into this trap as well. I bought dates from my local shop that said
Jordan River on it, but I didn't check the ISBN. And Israel loves to use the smokescreen of Jordan
when trying to pedal their settlement-based dates, mate. Or like myself, my friends, and even the
scholars that I hang around with, they order Coke. But I have made it a point not to consume Coke,
yeah, because that's a way that I want to... Yeah, brother, but what about that company and
that company. Look, on the Day of Judgment, when Allah asks me, at least I can say I did something,
mate, I did something. Yes, it may not be big, and you know what? We're at a time that Israel is one
of the dominant superpowers more so than the Muslim majority countries, and you know what?
Who cares? Who cares because we don't do it for results, we do it for the pleasure of Allah.
At a time where Muslim majority countries are literally sidestepping the Palestine,
they are selling our brothers and sisters down the river, mate. The Uyghur issue, Kashmiri issue,
and the Palestinian issue get side-lined because of economic benefit, and to see a country that
would definitely have benefited from the economic benefit, to put our brothers and sisters first.
You know what? SubhanAllah, Allah bless them. Also, other countries like in 2019, Malaysia refused to let
Israeli athletes enter because of that they were stripped of the World Para Swimming Championships.
Much love to our brothers and sisters around the globe that are showing us what true faith is. It's
not worrying about the results, it's about doing the right thing even if it means going against
yourself, as we are told in the Qur'aan. Let's leave it there, guys, until next time Aslaamu Alaikum.
