First to welcome mr. Yuri it's an honor to have her here and I was just looking I was shown a collection of some of the letters that she received from Malcolm X or Nothing shabbat shalom ah you called him shahida and rica and i was struck by this letter that he wrote her it was from kuwait on the twenty-seventh of September 1864 and it says still trying to travel and broaden my scope since I've learned what a mess can be made by narrow minded people and it's signed by the document and I think that if we look at the current situation that we find ourselves in it's certainly quite a
match and I were confirmed with the Iman
that largely been made by narrow minded
people as a renown said that
provincialism is the enemy and
provincialism is seeing things only from
the earth perspective and so the idea of
traveling in order to broaden one stove
because one of the interesting things
about the world they used to say seeing
is believing but the postmodernist
inverted that and make
breathing is seeing and what they meant
by that is that it is your belief system
which will determine what you see in the
world and one of the trouble that I've
always had is in separating between my
subjective experience and my objective
knowledge my subjective experience of
the world has been largely good and I
can honestly say that the vast majority
of human beings that I have met and
spent any time with I have actually
enjoyed being with them it's the
anomalous experience I've found that
being with people that I did not enjoy
being with and I can't say if I Will
Rogers that picture frame one who said
I've never met a man I didn't like I
wish I could share that that's called a
bomb in the Islamic tradition which is a
station with God and its fish station of
it wasn't video according to give an ID
that he shows in his commentary on the
99 names that the one who realizes the
name and what you which means to loving
God the ones we had the hot bubble
appearance of FIFA he realizes the
reality of that attribute of God you can
have no heat in his heart for anyone and
we notice in the fly when the prophets
tensions the people that he says I gave
your actions the provinces I keep your
actions when you spoke to his people and
the commentators say a proper she's not
taller people to the shoes that he hated
them you would actually have to have
some concerns for them in order to call
them to the truth and therefore what the
prophets hate is not the person or the
human being but they hate the actions to
emanate from them def harm room shelves
and harm others and this is why the
problem hundreds of the lighting
lighting
the pocket behind once according to the
hadith which doesn't have to be shown a
deep saw if you go passing and he stood
up and the plow but what if the
companion said to Allah o messenger of
how vicious a Jew and he said Allah
nation next up he didn't get a soul and
this is for something very deep that dr.
are we were talking about earlier and
also amongst Josh when he described
himself as poor thing when I was
studying Arabic logic one of my teachers
explain to me the difference between a
knob and the death something that is
essential and something that's
particular and the example that he used
was a circle or a ball of claw and he
said if you have a lot of red ball if
the redness necessary in order for the
ball to be a ball and I should know and
he said that that's and the hob and then
he said is the circular nature of the
ball necessary in order for it to be a
ball and I said yes and he said that is
essential and that is the difference in
logic between something which is
essential and something was just
particular or not essential and when we
talk about ourselves when FEMA shall I
spoke about being a Muslim and then the
next three things that were mentioned a
black man an African and American now of
all those things there was only one that
was essential and the others were
incidental what would you send to was
his states and relationships which is
created and I know that the Imam was not
free to be a Muslim in the sense that he
claims to be
state of absolute revision with his Lord
but when he said when he said I am a
Muslim I am committed to the path of
surrender to a multiple data and that is
why it's essential because that
according to the Muslim is what goes on
in the next world as for the color as
for the country the Prophet Muhammad
peace be upon said everyone is easily
the passport in order to get into
paradise it's an ayah be systematic
Mataji where they can use the word
collage which is the monitor if it
weren't for passport which did not
excuse that the type of you was speaking
he said everybody is given a passport
and on that passport it says boo boo boo
instead I'm an ending enter into this
place with ease in a state of
tranquility and security and it's saying
one tradition that we the believers
perks coming to paradise they repeat for
what is an untold number or an untold
amount of time the words mmm they just
keep repeating over and over again
shutdown shutdown shutdown which is
peace peace peace because why me what
they were always looking for has been
achieved and this is where we get into
the topic year of between war and
understanding war is very interesting
phenomena it's existed as long as soon
beings according to the piranha
according to the Bible we have at the
outset of this human experience a
conflict between the children of Adam
and I was saying that I had a fist
quality to imam siraj banana Sophia's
add to me that he is a human being he is
a child of Adam and that
essential and not incidental and while
kinkos might differ or Adamic nature
does not differ and that is what really
bothers us at a much deeper reality and
that's why we have her from different
worlds in this country we have different
life experiences and yet we have come
together as floaters the stair something
very powerful and the probability sleep
onset of allah allah and muhammad potato
he has no face the one who has no lock
and add that a merman Demonata potato he
has no taste the one who i build up and
he repeated it three times and he said
Hawaii Latino Center but a decision to
move to have the cooties off can't I
points you people to something that if
you GD you would have love for one
another and he said for my evaluation
them options are available spread peace
amongst yourself and I was this parabola
coffee in beginner at once we were in a
mischief in the mark of the property 31
and they have people at the door that
sometimes a very gruff and there was a
man there at the door well we used to go
through at buzzer which is the dawn
prayer and we would walk in i would say
fell out equal to him and he would say
bye to them and show the next day i
justit's Arabella foggy I wanna
experiment with that happy but the
public said a lot of items for them can
i indicate some g if you did it you
would start loving each other spread
peace and so the next day I saw a shame
that I said teleological you said
why we do sound a little restaurant but
we weren't there yet on the third day I
saw the same man and I was bitch shut up
on a hobby who's my witness and he's a
death one and I said oh Heidi cook and
he said why he in her and he smiled
and then on the fourth day we came in
and a lot of my witness I shall try an
equal and he came up and he hugged you
he gave me the hub and he was a father
and when that indicated to me is human
being can be worn down just if you have
wars of attrition you offer of peace of
a tree in other words you need to wear
your opponent's dinner and sometimes
people are belligerent for very valid
reasons the female was mentioning
earlier but that was insurance can still
be removed with good intentions and
goodwill that it takes effort one of the
interesting things about Jesus is the
war is actually a positive metaphor we
talk about the war on drugs or the war
on terrorism in the arabic language war
is a negative medical there would never
talk about a war against something evil
they would talk about it jihad because
the odd is very different from Warren
easy to be hanging is that according to
the amount of Islam if Ana Lucia said
that the meaning of jihad there are two
names of Jenna there is this the
printable of jihad which is probably
moved up and then there's the
institution of jihad the principle of
jihad is a universal principle that has
nothing to do with military endeavors
smirking what Sherlock that is the
principle of Gaea it is the struggle and
applause what is wrong
yourself and what is around you but then
of the institution of jihad which is a
state institution and according to the
scholars it is instituted by of legal
government for the removal of
belligerent and that is the wording in
the Arabic language as you haggle
without eyes as a weekly disaster to
kill off jihad is approaching enemies in
order to remove belligerent and it is
not one because one of the things that
war does is it destroys human genes and
if you don't anything i would recommend
reading a book called flores of course
that gives us meaning by Chris Hedges
who was a war correspondent for 20 years
he was in Bosnia he was in South America
he was in Central America he was in
Palestine he saw ha una camp he saw 10
year old children produced out into the
open by Lebanese Christian mercenaries
working for his lady troops in the
Arabic language and then shot with m16
with Silas's on this is a New York Times
correspondent a winner of many awards in
journalism who saw that he said it's the
only time in his players of war coverage
where he saw children perfectly seduce
that in order to eliminate he said in
Sarajevo be snipers targeted children
but he said here he he saw with his own
eyes children being seduced now because
their mothers were being cursed in
Arabic and they came out to throw rocks
in that book what he said he talked
about the addiction of war the power of
war the seductive nature of war that
people become seduced by war Charles
Emperor sugar who flew across the
Atlantic
give a seat in 1941 just before the
attack on pearl harbor any nasty she
said why are our cinemas and theatres
being filled with plays and films at war
by war this is propaganda because we
watch Mel Gibson who never seems to die
no matter how many bullets are flying
are glorifying the war in Vietnam which
is a shameful first on the history of
this country glorifying the Lord the
incineration of people that were being
killed and this is a little-known fact
being fueled because of a very rare
metal Zoners tungsten which is actually
in eyes knowledge pt.1 this country
about the military-industrial complex
but also talking about the necessity of
nylons Vietnam football to the Chinese
because they only two major sources of
toasted in the world china and vietnam
and tungsten is a very important metal
for high-tech instance war is something
that people get addicted to and now we
see all of these when I way into barnes
and noble just after September's rabbit
there was all these amazing displays or
World War two and right before that we
had a movie about twelve Harbor which
was a love story isn't that interesting
so you associated the most heinous
attacks on this country with a love
story where the emotions are so this
book is a testimony to the care of war
and it was an American Confederate
General already even said War is hell
and he became the rector on the military
institute in the South Africa
and they said that during the drills use
of purposely marched out of step because
people that have seen what those people
are seen either become a secret and want
more or they become qualified and want
put it into it and those are the choices
tell if you look at the food grade
classes in the Western civilization that
are foundational to what's called the
greco-roman civilization the Iliad and
adoption by the one poet Homer the idiot
is about war but the oddity is about the
attempt to get home after you've been
through of war and what happens to you
didn't throw discus in his attempt to go
back to normality after he's been
through a bloody and carnage field
experience very difficult and when he
gets however first thing he does is
magic for all the guests in the house so
it's interesting when our special forces
fellows get back from Afghanistan go to
Fort Bragg and kill for freedom who
happen to be there why it's very
difficult to come back home after you've
been in a war because war has a very
very terrible effect on the shoulder
it's not easy to kill a person these
were takes it very easy when he says
make my day they don't see pretty good
in those films suffering the addiction
of alcohol or drop to attempt to remove
the memory of that person making his day
fatal tells you that more Vietnam
veterans of committed camera shy since
I'd in Vietnam well that over twenty
percent of the homeless in this country
or Vietnam veterans because those are
the position that nobody cares about
trying to make their way back home after
the carnage so
hear the drums of war being drummed up
its kind of seriously wake up and
competitor who's manipulating mood it's
very easy to manipulate equal son has
anger opponent so as to throw them into
disarray and that was a book called the
art of war anger opponent saw us to
throw them in disarray but the same
philosopher of war also said a wide
general or leader will never start a war
in a state of anger because a nation
which destroyed can never be brought
back and a life once taken can never be
restored so those Afghan ease that were
celebrating their wedding seat when the
collector ball fell on them who can
bring them back and where's the memorial
for them and where are the tubes for
those people one of the things that
Shakespeare said in Henry 261 crop of
blood from my country bosom should
grieve me more than streams of for gore
provincialism is the enemy that might be
fine and dandy in a time when the
English actions were distinct race
defending their short but that is no
longer a sentiment that can be tolerated
in a world in which we all living side
by side because little Kabul is right
down the road in fremont and maybe some
of their relatives were in that wagon
seat there's 10,000 doctors in this
country from pakistan in the arab
countries the person treating your wife
or treating your child when you put
their life into it inland
an American comedian can say on national
television program there's certainly a
lot of Muslims in this country I look to
my doctor the other day you said face
Mecca and cost and everybody not when
that joke is understood by a large
number of Americans you know that Muslim
physicians are having an impact on this
country war is a negative term chef the
forearm talks about war finally putting
down is wrong for its weight 2 o's are
more the rates of war jihad on the other
hand is not like that because jihad is
about fighting for what is right and
english love is not allowed to fight
against descanses he cannot fight for
what he does not believe in it is
praised it it and i take a life unjustly
in this world collateral bubble tea is
an unacceptable concept as a principle
one of the english poet Byron said he
hated them too much to feel remorse and
thought provides of wrath of sacred call
to pay injuries of some on all thinking
that revenge is a which is bad does
anyone have that we have to fulfill
outside and this is unacceptable in our
current situation and that is why we are
indeed between war and understanding but
I would contend that the basket or a
people on this planet do not want war
the vast majority of people on this
planet like those people that we saw in
those films because that's the nitrogen
elusive world people have told me if
you're an American do you ever feel
afraid in the Musl
