While Muslim lands all over the globe helplessly burn under tyrannical rule, with news reaching us every day of innocent women, children and men killed in attacks; and as American foreign policy continues to create extremist groups by invading Muslim lands to quench their everlasting thirst of oil; and while the media and the far-right continue to smear our faith and our Prophet...the time to be politically correct is long gone!
Muslims with inferiority complexes keep apologizing for actions committed by extremist groups in the name of Islam; yet they never criticize the political issues that cause such extremism in the first place. And while Muslims must and should criticize people who misinterpret Islam, we must move beyond mere 'criticism' and actually work for the betterment of the Ummah.
In this powerful and emotional talk, delivered in front of the largest annual gathering of Muslims in North America, Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi shares his thoughts on the current state of Islamophobia in America, and the dismal situation in Muslim lands and how we should work together to speak out against oppression and injustice.
Join Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi as he speaks truth to power and stands up for the rights of the oppressed.
A talk not to be missed!
