00:00In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious,
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000

undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedIn the past few years I have been interviewed by
00:16several media outlets and one thing that I noticed
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined7
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe problematic things with those interviews was
00:37due to their time constraints usually they will
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined11
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedcomplete information so that's why I have decided
00:59to record a video series and on your screen you
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined15
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe things that you might have heard from other
01:24sources and I don't know how it
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined19
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedRights and it's also available on my website
01:41so in that I also documented some proofs for
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined23
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor the Muslim students or
02:02also some people like kind of criticise
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined27
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedprayer daily in congregation
02:23and for that prayer you actually need a dedicated
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined31
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedneed a dedicated place where we can offer our
02:47religious obligations in peace secondly a mosque
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined35
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedvery hectic the routine here is very hectic
03:11and the lab timings and like those who
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined39
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis a very big barrier so a
03:35mosque serves as a community place for
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined43
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedtheir problems and then get some suggestions or
03:58like kind of help from them so it's it also
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined47
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedlike other activities football
04:17or playing baseball or anything
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined51
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis if like particularly Muslims know that when we
04:38are connected to the mosque so it also boosts
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined55
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyou you will have to leave this university after
05:01sometime why you need a
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined59
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpermanent like for example soccer ground or a
05:22baseball ground or even library classrooms these
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined63
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedstudents also are arriving so these dedicated
05:43spaces are actually for the betterment of the
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined67
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbecause like if if the Muslim students were not
06:05performing well why will they
undefined:undefined00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,000
undefined:undefined71
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand might reduce the stress that they they
