Cultural Polemics – The Irrelevancy of Islam today

0:00 I want to then talk about this second form of polemics, which is the cultural form of polemics. Let's go ahead and introduce that. To do that, we want to show you these three areas. So let's look at the first area. We introduced it in the first service. And basically, this is what we call internal polemics, where you just take the Quran, you open the pages, you read the stories, or you read all the references here, and you start to confront what you read. And it's very easy to do just that because there's an awful lot here that needs to be confronted. What this book does to women, what this book does to men for that matter, what it does to families, what it does to Jews and Christians, what it does to us. There's an enormous amount of verses that need to be confronted here. This book is so violent and misogynistic. And therefore, it needs to be confronted. That's called the internal polemic.

0:51 And it needs to be done. The difficulty with that is when you do that kind of confrontation, Muslims do not care for that, and they get very upset. And they call it hate speech. They call it Islamophobia. Isn't it interesting? Only Islam has a term called phobia put next to its name because they cannot defend these problems, so they want to shut you down by basically censoring you. We don't have anything called Christianophobia because you can open up our Bible, read any verse you want, confront any verse you want, and we say, thank you. let's go and have some coffee and we won't talk about it.

1:25 And that's why it's so good that we can take our Bible, open its pages, and look at Jesus Christ in those pages, and he wins every debate. But Muhammad cannot. And that's why you cannot confront Muhammad. And that's why I want to bring this up right now. You need to make sure that this new law, this new law here in California called the AB1803, hate speech, mandatory indoctrination training. They want to bring on all institutions. They want to bring it on all companies. And they want to bring it on all churches. They want to take all of your people here in the church, the men who are running your church, and they want to teach them on how they must not use hate speech. But they don't define what hate is. How can you not define what hate is? It depends on who's receiving it as to what they consider to be hate.

2:20 So anytime, this has already been done in Britain, and that's why we shut it down in 2006, and it's called the discriminating, it's called the, what's it called, the name that they gave it there, it's a long name. Incitement to religious hatred is what they called it in Britain. Incitement to religious hatred, which is what this bill is, it stipulates from the standpoint that if any Muslim feels that what you're saying is hateful to them, that's called hate speech. So whenever I sit there and confront Muhammad, as I've just done, or when I confront the Quran, as I've just done, that would be a penalty of seven years in prison in Britain.

2:58 That's what they want to bring here now to California. Do not let that happen. We were able to shut it down there in 2006. It went to Parliament, it went to the House of Lords, back to Parliament three times. It finally came to the House of Parliament. They made their final vote on it, and it lost by one vote. That's how close we came to Interstuting that as law And the one vote was Tony Blair's vote The Prime Minister at that time He saw what was happening, he quickly stepped outside the door So they would not win that vote Can you see how dangerous that law is? The second one that we want to really impose And help you with Is The 2017 AB 2017 This is, they want to make The Id al-Fitr and the Id al-Adar These are two Islamic festivals. They want to make them as state holidays. Since when do you give privilege to one religion and not the other? You do not do that.

3:56 And once you do that, they've got their foot in the door, you're going to see what they do next. So these are two laws that you need to stand against. Jack has been asking you to do that. I'm going to support him and say absolutely do that. Now I'm going to say one more thing and I want to talk about these these, what do you call these Jay? Booklets. I call them cheat sheets. These are cheat sheets about everything that I'm doing in the next service. The historical critique, a lot of it is names, dates, places, lots of images, pictures of coins and pictures of timelines. There's no way in the world that you can remember all that. So we've put all of my slides into these laminated cheat sheets so that you don't have to learn a thing, just show it to your Muslim friend. and let them read it and walk through each argument. Each page is an argument. Look at that. I think there's about 700,000 arguments in this little booklet, right?

4:51 If you want that, why don't you stand up, Jay? Come see this man. He's not going to leave this time. He's going to stay right here, and he's going to sign you up because we've already run out. So many people have wanted them, so we've already, I think, sold out. But you can order them, and you can have them so that you can actually do these arguments. Now, I know a lot of you will probably want to learn them for yourselves, So go ahead and buy them for yourself, but give them to other people. We've laminated them because what tends to happen if they're done on paper, the Muslims grab it and tear them up. This way they can't tear them.

5:22 The second form that we're going to talk about is what we're going to do today. That's the culture. Once you look and you confront the Quran and once you confront Muhammad, then you see how it's applied culturally. And I'm going to show how it's applied here in the United States and what they're planning to do culturally, both politically, especially politically, and socially, and financially, educationally, and morally. And then we go into the third one. I'll be doing that in the next service, and that's called the external polemics. Basically, it's just historical polemics. We don't waste our time opening one page of this book in the historical polemic. Why in the world would you read a book that didn't even exist in the seventh century? Why would you talk about a man, or even confront a man, who never had lived? Muhammad. That's right. I say that categorically. I don't know of anybody that can support the man Muhammad who was born in Mecca, spent 52 years there, moved from Mecca to Medina in 622, received a book called the Quran between those two cities and died in 632, 60 years after he was born.

6:26 Show me one reference to this man or that place or that book in the 7th century. Do you see how easy that is? How long did it take me to say that? Basically, we're going to ask three questions. Did the man exist? Did the book exist? And did the place exist? The man is Muhammad, the book is the Quran, and the place is Mecca. And we're going to start with Mecca. And boy, when you see what we know about Mecca, it shuts the other two down. So that's why it's so good, because we're going to show you in the next service how you apply the same three questions to Christianity, Jesus and the gospel and Jerusalem no one even asked those questions anymore they tried to in the 1800s they've stopped asking it because Jesus is so well documented Jerusalem no one even questions the existence of Jerusalem and the gospel account thank God those who watch what Jesus did and saw I'm sorry saw what Jesus did and heard what he said they wrote it down immediately and we have four complete different counts of what Jesus said and did from the time that they were living. Like with like, we're going to do that in the third service. But let's get on right now and let's continue with this one here, cultural polemics. So to do that, I'm going to start with some maps. So let's look at these maps here. Maps tell a great story, and it's the maps we need to look at. This one here, this is really a breakdown of the world's religion. And take a look and see where the green is. The green is Islam. And notice it's between what we call the 10 and the 40th parallel. That is the poorest part of the world. That is also the least unreached part of the world. And so you're seeing where almost all of that is dominated by Islam. Islam does not do well financially, culturally, and in every other aspect. And the reason why is much of it is based on an Islamic law that supposedly comes from the 7th century. I don't think it had anything to do with the 7th century. Nonetheless, whatever century it was introduced and it was categorized, it does not work in the 21st century. And that's why in every category, when you look at the seven

8:34 areas of quality of life, they fail. They're at the bottom of the list. The only countries that are successful in the Muslim world are oil-based countries, which has nothing to do with Islam. So when you look at maps and when your missionaries show you maps of the Muslim world, they usually show you maps like that. Notice where the Muslims are in that map, the dark green. They're in the North Africa and the Middle East, right? That's actually a misnomer. They're not in those countries in large numbers. In fact, only 15% of all Muslims live in those dark green countries. 15%. 85% of Muslims do not live in those countries. And the reason why this is a misnomer and this is why it confuses so many people is because that is only designating where the percentage of Muslims which have the greatest percentage. And that's right.

9:24 In North Africa, in the Middle East, 90 to 95% of the people there are Muslims. But they're very sparsely populated. There are not very many of them in those areas of the world. A more accurate map would be this one here. This shows you where the actual Muslims live. Now notice what do you see. The dark green areas are not in the Middle East. Where are they? They're in Asia. And when you look at this map here Look what the circles are What's the largest circle there? It's the Asia Pacific Circle By far, almost a billion Muslims live in those countries To be more specific, live in those four countries right there Indonesia, India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh I grew up in India, I was born in India My parents, my father was born in India My grandparents died in India Therefore I'm a third generation Indian I don't look it, I know.

10:23 But don't be racist. Indians can also be white. And so I come from that area. This is my country. This is the country where I grew up. This is the country where I was living with Muslims. And I had them as roommates. I had them as classmates. They are my favorite people. Because I'm just like them. The passion they have, I am jealous of. And I want that same passion. I want you to have that same passion. And that's why I love India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Just those three countries, if you put them together, they were one country at one point up until 1947. If you look at the Muslim populations from those three countries, you get 600 million Muslims, double the entire population of America. By far, the largest group of Muslims in the world are from those three countries. and those three countries all have an English education system all based in English which means they speak your language and that's why they're so far ahead of everybody else in the Muslim world now just to make that point just take a look at this bar look at that so you can see they by far dominate the rest of the Muslim world when you look at the numbers the demography of Islam worldwide about 1.9 billion Indonesia 240 million, India 220 million Pakistan, 210 million Bangladesh, 185 million Nigeria, 107 million just taking those five countries that's almost up to a billion Muslims so you can see none of those five countries speak Arabic you notice?

12:02 every one of those except for Indonesia all the other four have their entire educational system is based in English they all speak English in those countries why? well take a look in India where I grew up we have 33 different languages well actually 330 different dialects but 33 official languages 7 which are placed on every one of our builds our rupee builds so how can you have 33 different educational systems with 33 different languages? you can't so they tried to make Hindi as the national language and there were riots all over India and many people were killed. And so they said, okay, we give up. Let's just put it back into the colonial language, English. That's why everything's in English now. And that's why when you pick up a phone here and want to know how to get to Fresno, California, you're probably talking to someone in Hyderabad or someone in Bangalore. What do you want, my dear friend?

12:55 I'll talk to you very quickly, huh? I sit there and I babble with them and I find out where they are and suddenly someone comes in, could you please keep the conversation down? What is their question? Because I love talking to these guys. Not because I need to get to Fresno. I just want to see what they're doing and why are they doing and where they are. Now, Asia is because it's such a strong percentage of Muslims. We've got to engage them because we have only spent all our times engaging the Arab world. Everything we've done has been on the Arab world here in the United States. All of our Bible schools, all of our seminaries, all of our training manuals have all done for the Arab-speaking world. And the difficulty is this. the Arab-speaking world are not attacking Christianity. Show me one Arab debater worldwide that's known worldwide for attacking Christianity. You want to know the names of the best debaters Muslims have?

13:49 You know the name, Ahmad Didat. No longer living, but by far in the last century, he was the number one voice. He is from Gujarat, though he lived and spent much of his time in Durban. Shabir Ali, I've debated him six times. Shabir Ali, probably the world's best debater, Muslim debater. But he is from India, though he comes from Suriname. Now he lives in Toronto.

14:14 Zakir Naik, maybe you've heard that name. Zakir Naik, considered probably to be the most prolific polemicist against Christianity. He is from Bombay, though now he's been thrown out of India. He lives in Malaysia. Anand Rashid, Pakistan. Mansur Ahmed, Bangladesh. Notice, none of these are Arabs. and these are the guys I have to take on. These are the guys I know, all of them intimately. Well, I don't know Zakat and Ike. He won't know me. He doesn't want to have anything to do with me. And Ahmadiyya died before I could get to know him. Can you see why we have to completely change our focus from the Arab world over into the Asian world? So when you look at our missiology, it's all been Arab, but really we should be looking at the bigger circle. We need to change our missiology to reflect the much larger 85% of the Muslim world. Now to do that, we have to start with understanding Muslim worldview. And the Muslim worldview is something you're not really being taught here.

15:09 When you ask a Muslim, a strong Muslim, an Orthodox Muslim, how they look at the world, this is what they'll tell you. And this material I'm going to introduce now comes from a good friend of mine named Sam Solomon. Dr. Sam Solomon just died this last year, had memorized the Quran in four different languages. He had it memorized in Arabic. He had it memorized in English and in Urdu. And what was the fourth one? Oh, maybe it was three languages. But he could recall any verse at any time in any one of the three languages. He was head of all the Islamic courts in Pakistan for nine years before he met the Lord. Once he met the Lord, he completely shut that all down, became one of the most vibrant Christian men I knew. But what he did is he was able to go and unpack everything that he came from. and he says you people need to wake up. You need to understand is how the Muslims look at us. And he says when they look at the West, they see us as this big circle.

16:07 That's how we are in the West as Christians. And yet our religious life is a very small circle. And so what we do, how we walk, talk, eat, drink, sleep does not really impact on our religious life. In fact, for most people here in the United States, they don't even come to church. If they do, they come on one day of the week and only on two hours in that Sunday morning. Now, I'm not talking about you all. I know you impact. In fact, Jack won't let you get away with that. He makes sure that every day and every hour is controlled by what your religious beliefs are. But the vast majority of people in America do not do that. And so you can see their worldview is very much a secular worldview in the United States and in Europe. Muslims, however, look at completely different. Their entire world is dictated by Islam. We separate church and state. When Christ was asked what he's to do, pay taxes, when he should show me a coin, whose image is on that coin, Caesar's image is on that coin. He said, give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, but give to God what belongs to God. So we separate church and state.

17:16 Islam brings the two together. And since they bring the two together, how they walk, talk, eat, drink, sleep is all dictated by Islamic law, known as Sharia law, or the four schools of fiqh. So all of life is religious. What they do politically is religious. What they do militarily is religious. How they dress is religious, even how big a beard they have. Steve, you have a better beard than I do. You're more religious than me, because you're supposed to have at least one arm, hands, leg. Boy, you've got a good beard. You're a good religious man. and that's why everything they do must be modeled on what the prophet did, what he said, you say what he did, you do so therefore people who are living in a Muslim context their life is a very small little part of what's happening around the world and so Muslims see a bit of the secularism in Muslim context but they make sure that all of that life is then imposed upon it and then becomes Islam. So that for Muslims, everything they do is part of their religion. That's their worldview.

18:26 Now, what happens when Muslims leave that environment? What happens when they leave their country? What happens when they leave their community and come to California and come to Chino? Let's look at another circle. Muslims, therefore, see the world as two different spheres again. When they're in their country, when they're in their community When they're in their family, they're in what they call Dar al-Islam That means House of Islam And so when they leave that Well, before we do that, let's look at the small circle there The non-Muslims So the non-Muslims, if they're in a Muslim environment They're a very small minority, which is true In almost every Muslim context, the non-Muslims are very small They don't have any voice, they don't have any power Most of them are not even, like you have in Egypt, they're not even permitted to go to certain universities.

19:23 And they have to basically have permission to even improve their churches. These are called dimilas. Now, when they come to the West, which is very secular, they know that they are leaving Dar al-Islam and they're coming to Dar al-Harb. Harb means war. They're coming into a context of war. So when they come to California, they're now in a context of war. And what do you do when you're in a context of war? You can do anything you want. You can cheat. You can lie. So that when you hear Muslims say things like this, and you'll probably hear them here in California, oh, yeah, we believe in Israel. We have no problem with Israel.

20:02 That's usually what they want. They know you want to hear. I hear Muslims all the time say, oh, you're praying, and God is answering your prayer. We have the same prayers, and Allah answers our prayer. There's nowhere in the Quran that will support that. this is the public face of Islam here in California. They're in Dalat Harb. When they're in the context of war, as we know when we're captured and taken behind enemy lines, we don't say what we believe. We just give them our dog tags and just give them our numbers, and that's it. That's all you're permitted to do when you're in the context of war. So Muslims look at the West as that. So therefore, when they come here as a small circle, and they are certainly a minority still, what is their job? And there is reference after reference, article after article that is all through the Muslim world that say, when you come to the West, you're in Dalar Har, you must make sure that you impose your views on the West so that it becomes Dara'l-Islam.

21:04 In every area of life, your job in the West is to bring in Dara'l-Islam. Now notice, they don't do so by using the word like we do. and I'll say a little bit more about that they have other means to do that we'll get to that, but are you following these circles, these concentric circles just to show you the world view and what they mean and what they're going to do they always, when they come to the west now at the very beginning they just used the sword to begin with but as they continued on through the centuries, especially from the 10th century on they realized they could no longer use the sword so they started going into debate and that's why we have many debates from the 10th up until the 19th century By the 19th century, we pretty much lost out on the debates because we colonized the rest of the world. And so debates were shut down by the colonial powers as being insensitive. And it's only been in the last 40 to 50 years that we've now reintroduced debates.

22:00 And some of that has to do with what I do and what others do, like Sam Solomon and others who have gone ahead. We are the old ones who are trying to bring that back together. And what they have been doing, once they come as minorities into a majority, they always start with politics. That's why you see this law that they want to bring in, this Ayd al-Fitr and al-Adha, the AB 217. That is part of this political indoctrination that they're bringing to California. And then they start with AB 1803. These are all to help Muslims. because once Muslims institute these laws, they shut you down from criticizing them. And once you don't criticize them, then they pretty much can criticize you all they want because none of you are going to go to court and say, well, that hurts my sensibilities. That never happens. Muslims will do that from the get-go.

22:54 So starting with politics, they use local political structures, bringing in Muslim leaders. Then they go to the judiciary, and by once they got the political power, then they bring in the judiciary so they then control laws and then start introducing Shadi Allah. And that's happening all over the world. It's happening already in Nigeria. Is Mary here? Mary, are you here? Why don't you just stand up? Let's give this lady a hand. Mary has a team in Nigeria who has found out that back in the 1990s, there in the constitution, Nigerian constitution, they have introduced these articles. What is it? Nine or ten articles. And these are all shoddy articles that have been instituted in the constitution, and the Christians didn't even know that they were there. And that's been going on for almost up to 30 years now. And now she is now we're going into these institutions. We'll be together next month, Mary and I, and we're introducing and we're training up on a young cadre of young men and women to debate Muslims on their book, Their Man in Their Place. We're actually doing that, introducing and Mary's in charge of that. And so give her, make sure you go and talk to her when you start here.

24:11 The reason why Nigeria has 220 million people, it's the largest country in Africa. It also has 107 million Muslims, which means if they become Islamic, if Nigeria becomes Islamic, the rest of Africa becomes Islamic. So we need to stop Islam in Africa. The way to do that is start with Nigeria. I don't know if you know it, but in the last two years, 83% of all Christians killed worldwide were killed in Nigeria, in one country. Yet you're not hearing about it in the press, are you? You're hearing all about BLM, black lives matter as long as they're American black lives. What about Nigerian black lives? Why aren't we standing up for our dear brothers and sisters in Nigeria? Well, we're doing just that because of Mary. And that's why we need to shut this down.

25:03 we need to bring Nigeria back to its foundations again. So we're going to be doing that next month. We've been doing it now for about three or four years. Pray for Nigeria. Once they get the military, the politics, and am I correct that what they're doing is now your president is a Muslim. The vice president is now being appointed Muslim, the first time in history. And now they want to go to the judiciary and bring in Islamic law. They're starting with Kaduna State and bringing it down south so it now takes over all the states. They're taking over all the governorships, are they not? So again, they're using politics. Once they have the politics and they get judiciary, then they move into the military. So now they're getting most of your generals are now Muslims. That's why no one's protecting the Christians.

25:44 Can you see what happens? It's step by step by step going into the military. Once they have those three, then they confront and they introduce it through education. So they start with politics, go through judiciary, go through the military, and then end with education. On that time, they have all the areas of power. And this has happened all over the Christian world. It's happened in Lebanon. It's happened in Jordan. It's happened in Syria. It's happened in Egypt. It just now happened in Kosovo, even while we were watching. We were there. We saw it happen in the last 30 years. Kosovo now is no longer Christian. It's now a Muslim state. So people, wake up. Don't let it happen here. We must not let it happen here. With these four areas of power, they can then impose their own morality, constraints on our dress, food, music, drink, and lifestyle. They can then constraints on our freedom, especially freedom of speech.

26:38 Once you shut down freedom of speech, we cannot criticize them. Once you shut down freedom of speech, we won't be able to talk about homosexuality anymore. What are you going to do with Romans 1? Our pastors will not be able to read that scripture. Can you see why we must keep freedom of speech open? because when the gospel is free to speak, it brings millions to the Lord. We've got to make sure the gospel is free to be used, and we've got to make sure that we can confront Islam and confront this book because this is the book that's doing all the damage.

27:13 And then, of course, once you have those, morality, speech, evangelism, movement, education, then they bring it into their foreign policy. So let's look at the USA. Jack asked me to do this, and I did this on Wednesday. And I did a much larger talk than I'm going to do today because I don't have the time. And he said, can you deal with these people, the four major politicians and then the theologian that is at the bottom of this? And I said, let me do that, but I don't feel too comfortable doing that. I don't feel too comfortable doing it right now. But what we did on Wednesday, over half a million people have watched. So it's already gone to over half a million. Possibly by next Wednesday, it'll probably go over a million. Because no one is saying this publicly. We need to say it publicly. So let's look at the four men and women that he wanted me to talk about, starting with Mondani, coming out of New York City.

28:08 Now, Mondani is from Uganda. That's where his parents are from. They're originally from India. He's a Shiite. He has Shiite leanings. Yet his entire platform is socialistic and communist. Therefore, most people don't think of him as a good Muslim. because he supports LGBT rights and he also supports abortion to a certain period. So his socialistic and communist agenda gets in the way of seeing anything else. And to be fair, he really doesn't know much about Islam as much as others do.

28:43 Abdul Rahman Said is by far more dangerous because he does understand Islam very well. He is from Michigan and he just won the primary there in Michigan a few weeks ago. This man is highly educated. He has two doctorates. He is a great speaker. When Clinton saw him in 2007, Clinton went to him and says, we need to use you because you are such a good speaker. And he is. He's a good speaker and he's born in America. Therefore, he could be president. But he was the first one that wants to introduce Sharia law. Just a few weeks ago, he was on Fox News and was asked, why do you want to introduce Sharia law? He said, well, you have canon law. Therefore, if you have canon law, I can introduce Sharia law. without realizing it, the canon law only works for those who are part of the canon. Therefore, it only works for those who are Anglicans or Episcopalians in this country. And therefore, it only institutes for those people who support that. Sharia law confronts everybody. They don't make a distinction between believer and non-believer.

29:37 All come under sharia law. So you cannot equate the two. And it will subvert constitutional law. Rashida Tlaib out of Michigan as well. She's from Palestine. very progressive, she's known as the big mama because she loves to help the disenfranchise. Not necessarily Islamic, she doesn't wear a hijab, is much more interested in really only one area, and that is the Palestinian problem. So therefore, she's not really a threat nationally, as she has made too much baggage that she's carrying with her. Ilhan Omar is a little bit more, much more of a Muslim. She comes from Somalia. Although a strong Muslim, she has married Islamically, That's why she makes this distinction. She has married Islamically two different men, and even coexisting in their marriage together, now has divorced both of them properly. Her bigger problem, though, is not her marriage. Her bigger problem will be the Minneapolis fraud scandal, which still she has not answered for.

30:34 So she has an awful lot of baggage to work upon. And then I want to introduce this man here, Dr. Yossarkadi, out of Dallas, Texas. I was just in Texas two weeks ago, in Dallas, to help the church leaders there and also to help many of the businessmen who have come together to say, what are we going to do with these epic cities? Have you all heard about Epic One? East Plato Islamic Center that he is responsible for? That's going to be the first model of Islam in the United States. And they want to make that as a model for the rest of the United States. And it's all been done by Asians, not by Arabs. That's why they're much more dangerous, because they understand our laws. They understand our material. They understand our Bible. They understand our Lord Jesus Christ, and that's why they know exactly how to hurt us the most. Yasir Qadhi is also probably the most dangerous because he's the only man that I know in Islam who has a degree from Medina University there in Mecca. He has the highest degree you can get on Hadith sciences, and he also has a PhD from Yale University.

31:35 So he has the highest degree you can get in Western historical criticism, and that two of them, no other Muslim that I know has been able to do. So he understands both camps. He understands and he can walk back and forth between both camps. That's why he's so dangerous. Here's what's interesting. Notice the four politicians up there. All four of them support abortion and LBGTQM, which is completely anathema to Islam, as well as other progressive democratic policies. Dr. Yasir Qadhi does not. Yet he still supports those four. How can he support those four if he's actually against the policies that they support? And the reason is because there's a need to have Muslims in government who, once Islam dominates, can then introduce Sharia law through the back door. So let's look at some of his quotes to understand what we're talking about.

32:31 He's from Pakistan, though not a politician yet, and is by far the most dangerous because he has these two highest degrees. His father, Dr. Mazar Akhazi, is a biologist, but he's a religious teacher who is from Maududi's Jamaat-e-Islami school. Now, you may not know what this is, but this is probably the most radical school that was formed there in northern India by Maududi himself back in the last century. And in 1947, at partition, he then left India, went over to Pakistan, and set up his madrasas there, which then poured out these Talibes. And these Talibes became the Taliban. Taliban. And the Taliban, Taliban just means student, Taliban, where they plural them, and they were the ones that moved into Afghanistan and then threw out the Russians, embarrassed the Americans and invited Al-Qaeda to set up shop there in 2001. So much of it comes out of the Maududi and his movement, the Jamaat-e-Islami. This is just a quick history lesson for all of you. That's why we need to pay attention to this, because he's by far, in many respects, much more dangerous because he has his father from that background. He was born in Houston, so he could, if he wants to go into politics, become a president in the future. In 1996 to 2005, he studied at the Islamic University of Medina where he got a diploma in Arabic, a BA in Hadith Sciences, and an MA in Islamic Theology, which is the highest you can get in Islam. Then he came to Yale University and got a PhD studying Ibn Taymiyyah. Ibn Taymiyyah is by far the father of radical Islam. From the 13th century and the 14th century, he is the one that really created radical Islam.

34:11 Radical Islam starts from the premise that in order to be a good Muslim, read the book, follow the man. That's me. I'm saying that. But what he's saying is read the Quran and follow what Muhammad did, how he applied it. And he did this, what, 900 years ago. And it is he that the Al-Wahab, Ibn al-Wahhab in Saudi Arabia in the 1700s took what Ibn Taymiyyah said and created Wahhabism, which starts from the same premise. Read the Quran, follow Muhammad. Folks, don't we start from the same premise? But a different book and a different man, right? When Jack's up here, does he have the Bible in his hand? Please say yes. Or on his phone, or he has it up on the screen. Does he read it? Of course he does. Does he apply it to your lives? Please say yes. We demand that of our preachers, of our ministers. You have to read the book to understand what Jesus did, you're to do. What Jesus said, you're to say.

35:05 Since that's what Jesus' model is, that's our model. So we understand exactly what Ibn Taymiyyah is saying. And Ibn al-Wahhab is saying from the 1700s. And that's why then you come to the last century. And you get to the radical reformation. The radicals who were there in Egypt. Who were led by Said Qutb. Said Qutb is the one that took Ibn Tayyam's material and put it down into two books called Milestone and In the Shade of the Quran while he was imprisoned there in Cairo. And from 1955 to 1965, that 10-year period, he wrote the most damaging books on taking the Quran and applying it to the 20th century. He was then executed by Gemma Nasr in 1965. But his students was Ayman Zawahiri. Sa'd Qutb had memorized the Quran by the time he was 10 years old. Ayman Zawahiri memorized the Quran by the time he was 15 years old.

36:02 That's about the size of the New Testament. How many of you could have memorized the New Testament when you were 10 and 15? These are prodigies. They're amazing minds. And it was Sa'd Qutb that was the one who taught Ayman Zawahiri his theology. Ayman Zawahiri then found a man named Ibn, what's his name? Help me here. The Saudi Arabian. with Al-Qaeda. Osama bin Laden. Osama bin Laden then came with Ayman Zawahidi and started Al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda means the base, the foundations. Ayman Zawahidi then taught Osama bin Laden, but Osama bin Laden didn't know much theology. He just had a lot of money. And they started Al-Qaeda. And you know what happened then 25 years ago.

36:47 25 years ago, those 19 young men confronted the United States as we'd never been confronted before. brought down those two buildings in New York tried to bring down the one in the Pentagon and one plane came down in Pennsylvania and that was where you all woke up to the fact that there were people called radical Muslims and yet we've been working with this for hundreds of years those of us in mission work and those of us like myself I only work with radical Muslims so I've known about this and I see the power of this happening and that's why you need to look and understand why Yassaf Khadi is so important because he comes from that school He comes from that area. So when he's setting up Epic City there in Texas, which he has now done, he, of course, is against LGBTism. He is against abortion. He used to be a Salafi. Salafi means the companion of the prophet.

37:39 He was one of those who followed what the prophet said categorically. He now has moved into what they call wasatia, which is a doctrine of moderation, balance, and justice. It's a sanitation of bringing down that which is radical to a Western mindset, representing a middle path, he calls, between extremes, which seeks integration and interaction with the West, unlike the Slavis. That's his public face. That's what he's saying publicly. And it sounds great, doesn't it, when you hear that? Because of its importance, I'm going to look at some of his quotes to unpack them a little bit more. Now, he says this, the power of the United States influence, I'm sorry, the power of united Islamic influence is what we desire. So as a group, Muslims, as a minority, can influence other Muslims at every level. We must advance the Islamic agenda in every area of power in what we seek. So therefore, he wants Muslims in government, he wants Muslims in the Pentagon, he wants Muslims in the FBI, in the CIA, because Muslims have the correct morality, he says, which Americans do not.

38:40 Therefore, can you see, he's already setting himself up to take over these areas of power. because of the high Muslim birth rate, almost double the national average we will have a majority of people within one generation he calls it the halal secret weapon similar to what Muammar Gaddafi used to say before he was killed this suggests that they are not interested in persuading people of the superiority or even the truth of Islam as they believe Islam will simply be brought about by sheer numbers are you following what he's saying?

39:09 Sharia is and will be supreme over all And he goes to chapter 5, verse 44 to 47 to support that. Why? Because Sharia is Allah's supreme rule for all of mankind. And if you follow any other system of law, including constitutional law, and put it above it, you have rejected your faith. That's how important Sharia law is to him. If you judge by any other than that which comes from Allah, you have negated your faith as a disbeliever. The reason is because societies will come and go. America will come and go. but what Allah dictates is eternal for everyone, everywhere at any time. Are you following this?

39:48 What we do in the next 30 years will dictate Islam for the next 300 years. So he believes that this first generation, which he's a part of here in the United States, will lay the foundation for the next 300 years, starting in academia and for the preservation of Islam by building schools, mosques, seminaries, institutes, and masjids, of course, so that they bring about Islamic success all over the United States. and he believes the USA is an empty slate, as he calls it. So this is the best place where this can be done, much more effectively than in Europe and other countries. He started Epic One, which is their first model. Now he's moving to Epic Two, because that's been so successful. Take the best of Islam, and instead of 100 houses, Epic One, there in Dallas, in northeast Dallas, make it 1,000 houses with Epic Two. Rather than just one masjid, make it a magnificent complex with purpose-built complexes rather than a subdivision, an entire city, and advertise it to the entire continent right here in Dallas.

40:46 This will be an opportunity for the American Dahwasi. That means the missionary scene. He believes that what is really there will be so much better the second time around just because it is bigger. Then he talks to Mamdani. You'd think he would actually confront Mamdani and actually criticize him, but he says Mamdani is a monumental victory for the Ummah, a game-changer, he says. Note, Mamdani is a Shiite, whereas Yasser Qadhi is a Sunni. He's pro-LGBT, supports abortion, and very much a communist, all of which Qadhi would reject. But he is willing to forego such trivialities in order to get Muslims into power. We start small, he says, and agree with those whom we support until we gain power. Until they have 51%, then they take over the Democratic Party for themselves, using the opposition of useful idiots. And then just two days ago, he said this, We are at the time of jihad by the tongue. We are at the time of the intellectual jihad.

41:40 What does he mean by this? This is what people don't realize. He was speaking in Urdu. He was not speaking in English so that the English people could not understand. We found what he was saying and we quickly had it translated into English. He's talking about the three stages of jihad following the Prophet Muhammad's own life. When you ask a Muslim what Muhammad did in Mecca and Medina, you will see that in Mecca he was a minority. He was not part of any power structure. And so all he did was receive revelation and then write about it. Or he had his secretaries write about it. That's called the stage of the pen. He just uses the pen like they're doing today here in the United States. They're using articles and they're using all kinds of books. They're using television. They're using radio to introduce this peaceful religion called Islam, this peaceful man named Muhammad, and this peaceful book called the Quran. That's called the pen stage. But then Muhammad moved to Medina in 622. and in the next two years he created what he called the Constitution of Medina.

42:35 The Constitution of Medina dictated that he was the arbiter between man and God and there were these article after article which stipulated all the powers that he had. None of which he had in Mecca, he now had Medina. That's the second stage and these are laws. So they have a figure of a scale. So the first stage is with a pen, the second stage is the scale. And that's now coming into Europe. That's coming into Britain, where I was for 25 years. They're starting to use all these Islamic laws that are bringing into different enclaves. Now they have Sharia courts in Britain, over 80 Sharia courts. Did you know that? 80 Sharia courts, which are completely legitimate, introduced by British law, in order to subvert British law.

43:21 That's the second stage. then in 6 I'm sorry 625 so 624 in 624 he had been in Medina for two years he then had his first battle the battle of Badr where he went and confronted the Qureshi and he won that battle but there were no Jews with him they would not join them because they did not sign the treaty of Medina why did they not sign the treaty of Medina because right at the first article that he would be arbiter between man and God. They refused to sign that because how would any Jew let someone be an arbiter between God? Would you sign a treaty like that? I wouldn't. Don't you ever sign a treaty like that. And because they would not support him, he then confronted them and took the Banak HaNukah family and threw them out of Medina. A year later was the Battle of Uhud. The Battle of Uhud was where the Meccans came to revenge that attack that happened the year before.

44:16 He lost the battle. The Meccans actually won it, and he was gravely wounded. He then realized the Jews had not supported him, so he took the Banu Nadir and threw them out of Medina. Two years later, we had a third battle, and this is the Battle of the Trenches. Neither side won. And so he went to the Jews that were remaining, the last remaining Jews' tribe, the Banu Koriza family, the largest family. And after 21 days of confronting them, they finally gave up. So he took 800 men, all of their men, in groups of 10 and slit their throats. took all the women and children as concubines and slaves for his men. That means within five years of moving to Medina, there were no Jews left. Now, I have a name for that. I call that genocide. And this is their model. You've not heard this before, have you? Yet I can show you that's in two biographies. You can get it in Ibn Hisham. Al-Wakiri talks about it.

45:08 You can get this in Al-Buhari. You can get this in Al-Tabari. I've given you four sources. I'm not making this up folks if that is their model and Yasar Qadhi uses that model when he says we start with the first stage the stage of the pen do you see what he's doing? he's following the prophet's example be careful of what their plan is for United States While the first four Muslim politicians all support abortion LGBT agenda, which is not Islamic at all, theirs is the traditional immigrant story, punctuated with victimhood which the left thrives on. So that with so much quick success in the last few years as they believe their time has come, allowing them the freedom to assert themselves. and demographic changes in various urban areas of the U.S. and the growth of the left progressive element among the Democratic Party now offers a welcome map to them, not least on issues such as Palestine, and that's why they're using Palestine.

46:08 Yet Muslims are generally social conservatives whose values are more in keeping with conservative Republicans. Some believe that if the latter's policies, the Republicans on the Middle East change, particularly concerning Israel and Palestine, which they will not, it is likely that a majority of defection of Muslims to the GOP could take place. His conclusions are this. He is not concerned necessarily with the non-Islamic beliefs of the current Muslim politicians, since he is looking at the long goal of slowly attaining power by demanding the Muslims vote as a bloc in order to control U.S. politics, coupled with the judiciary, education, and finally the military, a tried and proven common past practice. What will happen if or when the Democrats come to power on the coattails of these strong and energetic Muslims and they then in turn turn on them once they have 51% what's going to happen then?

47:04 I don't want the rapture yet. I want to make sure we bring them home. Let's bring them home. Qadi possibly the dominant and future theologian for Muslims in the US and some believe for the modern Muslim worlds may not be a Salafist. He might not be a radical as we've been thinking, but he is still very conservative and is completely dependent on the Quran and Muhammad for his model. we know where that model leaves and how to defeat it. So what's the solution? I've given you a totally depressed you now, haven't I?

47:45 Let's now look at the solution. These are the top seven cultural issues to use with Muslims to really confront them and help them understand. Start with the apostasy law. Just go look at the Quran and just look and see where it says very clearly in chapter 4, verse 89 of the Quran, where those who leave the faith, if they leave Islam, they must be put to death. All four schools of law, the Hanbali, the Hanafi, the Maliki, and the Shafi school, all four schools of law dictate that if anybody leaves Islam, they must be put to death. The only difference between those schools is when you get put to death, either immediately like the Hanbalis, or you're given three days to repent, or in one case, you're given ten days to repent. But if you do not repent and come back to Islam, it is a capital offense. So confront that and compare that to what Jesus says. See, Jesus allows us to accept him or reject him, doesn't he?

48:39 Look at the prodigal son. Isn't that a beautiful story? The son is us. The father is Jesus and the father. The son rejects the father, asks for his inheritance, goes into a faraway land, and what does the father do? He waits at the door, waiting day after day, looking in the distance, waiting for his son to return home again. And when he sees the son returning home, what does he do? He runs up to him. He grabs him. He hugs him. And he has a banquet. That's my Jesus.

49:11 Jesus allows us to accept or reject him. Islam has no idea what we're talking about. Because they, if you reject Allah, it's a capital offense. What a contrast. Women, this is for you to do. Beth Peltola has done it this last few days. And she'll be speaking again later this afternoon on this. And she talks about really looking at two different chapters in the Quran, chapter 2 and chapter 4. Starting with chapter 4, in verse 3, it says that if a man can have up to four wives, if he can take care of them. And so that shows that a man can have up to four wives. Can women have up to four husbands? No. Believe you don't want four husbands. We all have mother-in-laws.

49:59 I do love my mother-in-law, please, just so she hears that. and then it says in verse 11 a few verses later that when the father dies in the family the son gets twice the inheritance of the daughter so even in death there's inequality for women a few verses later in verse 24 of chapter 4 it says that a man can have as many women as his right hand possesses these are slaves of war these are known as concubines above and beyond the four women, he can have innumerable number of concubines. And then it talks about the mahr, the woman gets her mahr. That means when a man goes and he travels away from home and he has sexual desires, he can go into a mosque and he can basically hire a woman called muta marriage, temporary marriages, for either three hours or 90 years. You know what I'm talking about because you've been from Islam. You understand it. Then in verse 34, 10 verses later, it says that a man is a protector of women, but to those women who stand against their husband, say, naughty, naughty, don't do it again. If that doesn't work, then throw her from the bed. If that doesn't work, then beat her. And the word is darabah. That means to scourge her like you do a donkey in the Arabic. Thank God we don't have that in our Bible.

51:20 chapter 2 verse 282 it says that in court a woman has half the testimony as a man and the reason why when asked by Aisha his favorite wife he said because women are more disobedient and less intelligent folks not here in America not in Europe in standardized testing even as far as early as high school age I'm not sure about America but in Britain girls outperform boys in every category Even in science and mathematics, those are the two we used to have. We have to give them up to the women. You women are highly intelligent. I know, I've got a wife. And I've got four sons. And by far, the best is my wife.

52:07 Thank you, sir. He's echoing that. chapter 2 verse 2 to 3 stipulates that a man can a man has take his wife anytime he wants that's called marital rape it's a terrible verse but the worst one is the one yet to come chapter 2 verse 230 stipulates that a man can divorce his wife simply by saying three times talak talak talak if the next morning when he wakes up and he realizes he doesn't have his breakfast he can not take his wife back. She has to first go and have penetrative sex with another man. That man then has to sign a certificate of divorce to have her go back to her original husband. This is called halal marriage. Now, this is the first time most of you are hearing this. To me, that is despicable. What does that say about a woman? And what does that say about marriage? Thank God we don't have these laws. Thank God we don't have these verses in our Bible.

53:04 And yet, can you see then why these people need to read the Quran? As far as immorality, look at Muhammad marrying a girl when she was six years old and then consummating when she was nine, his favorite wife. If you have any thief, you chop their hands off according to chapter 5, verse 38. Now, when you compare Muhammad with Jesus, folks, there's no comparison. I could go a whole hour on this. Take a look at Muhammad. Take a look at Jesus. Is there anything we can find wrong with Jesus? Has anybody found anything wrong with Jesus? Does everybody love Jesus? Does Madonna love Jesus? Even Madonna loves Jesus. Everybody loves Jesus, and there's a reason why. Because there's nothing wrong with him. Muhammad, you've got about an hour, I'll tell you thing after thing that I have a problem with Muhammad. What he does to women, what he does to men, what he does to communities, what he did to those who stood against him. Asma bin Marwan, who was a poetess who wrote poetic verse against him.

53:58 She had six children. He said, who's going to take care of this woman for me? Umar, his blind disciple, almost blind disciple, went to her bed where she was suckling her baby and plunged the knife through her chest. Came back the next morning, told Muhammad what he had done. Muhammad said, great are you for what you have done for your prophet. What does Jesus do when faced with violence? Peter, who cut off the ear of the servant there in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus took the ear, put it back on the servant, turned towards Peter and says, put away your sword. For he who lives by the sword dies by the sword. That's my Jesus. everywhere you go Jesus stands against Muhammad and as far as persecution this practice against Christians is evidenced worldwide especially as Mary knows in Nigeria where 83% of all Christians killed are killed right there theocratic authoritarianism Islam has a theocratic idea of where you belong you have Allah at the top underneath comes the caliph who would be the king underneath him comes the ulema which would be the religious scholars who choose the caliph Underneath him comes the Ummah, which would be the believers.

55:00 Under them comes the Alikatab. That's us. We're down here, the Jews and the Christians, the Zoroastrians, and at the very bottom are the Kafirs, or the Adolachers. That's a theocratic state. On this side, Jesus says, where there are two or three gathered in my name, that's my kingdom. So I'm looking out in here, one, two, three, there's the kingdom of God. One, two, three, there's the kingdom of God. We're right here. Wherever there are two or three, Jesus is with us. It's a relationship. Isn't it great? and that's why we know wherever we go, Jesus comes with us through the Holy Spirit. Thank God our kingdom is so much more exciting. Slavery and concubinage, both are evidence historically, even continue today. Yet look at Galatians 3.28. There is no difference between man or woman, slave or free, Jew or Greek, all are equal in Jesus Christ. And then Philemon 6, where Paul sends a slave, rightfully so, back to his master, but then he says, you are no longer master to slave, you are now brothers in Christ, redefines the whole relationship between a slave and a master as brothers in Christ.

56:00 And that's why it has been Christians who are at the forefront of eradicating slavery. Wilberforce and the Clapham sect in Britain there in the 1700s were able to do it. Why? Because of those verses, because of the Bible, because of Jesus Christ and his example. And immigration, here's the last question you can ask Muslims and I'll end with this. If Islam is so great and Muslims are in these countries and they're refugees because of violence and that's why they become a refugee why aren't they going to other Muslim countries? Why aren't they going to Saudi Arabia and the Middle East where there's all kinds of riches? Why aren't they going to those countries? Why are they all coming here? And Europe? Why are they coming to Christian memory countries? I don't say these are Christian countries but we have a Judeo-Christian environment. The reason why is because our culture, our politics are all based on biblical principles, based on the person of Jesus Christ. What he said and what he did, we do and we say. And that's why folks, so many people are coming our direction. They see something unique about Christianity. They see something unique about the laws we have, about our politics, about our culture. Let's preserve that culture. Let's never leave it because it's based on one person. And what is his name? I can't hear you. Who is the King of Kings? Who is the Lord of Lords? Who is God in heaven? Who is God on earth? Who died on the cross? Who then rose again? Who now is in heaven?

57:37 Who wants to bring you home? What's his name? Jesus. What a name. Let's pray. Lord, what a God you are. What a culture that you have created. What a whole environment that you actually modeled when you were here 2,000 years ago. Yes, you came to die on the cross. That was your principal reason for coming. But you also gave the 12 and also Paul and the others. You gave them a whole rubric of how we're to live and what we're to say and how we're to act. and that has been successful for the last 2,000 years and every time that there has been a weakness in our culture it's because we've moved away from what you said and what you did. Lord, we want to retain that. This culture is unique because it's based on your example. That example, if it's been lasting for 2,000 years, it'll last for another 2,000 years until you come again.

58:35 But Lord, until you do come again, may we wake up and realize that we could lose that. We can lose it if we let Islam, especially Islam, one of the most pervasive cultures, one of the most demonic cultures, one of the most violent countries. Look what it does to women. Look what it does to men, communities and families. Look what it's done in the last 1,400 years to every country that it's touched. We do not want that here. That means we need to be vigilant. We need to wake up. We need to follow you. We need to say what you said and do what you did. And Lord, that's why you stood against the Pharisees and those who had desecrated your temple. may we also do the same. And in everything we do, may we represent you.
