Jazakallah Khairan Shaikh YQ and brother Nihad Awad. My daughter has an advanced diploma in filmmaking. My husband used to think that it's not a financially rewarding career. But we do support her. I've always hoped that she can used her talent in the course of supporting our ummah through her lenses. Today's lectures has opened my eyes wider. We've been slowly encouraging her to further her studies in getting a degree as she finds difficulties in finding a permanent job in the industry here in Adelaide, Australia. But we never give up hope. Recently she was listed top 5 cinematographer for youth film-maker among 700 in Australia. Alhamdulillah. We make doa that she can pursue her career further. Insyaa Allah. May Allah guide our youth to be a productive ummah and human being. Amin❤

Masha’Allah. May Allah SWT grant you your wish

[@faisalmarwane2136]

Encourage her to pursue her goals. She will be a role model for future young Muslims .our umma needs diversity and if we have some Muslims doing what she's doing we will proud to decency in the films and educative contents.

Masha Allah. Beautiful reminder for our movers and shakers. Lets go

Sheik Qadhi is a gift to the Muslim umma. I started listening to Islamic lectures prior performing my hajj in June 2024. One of the first videos that ran my feed was Dr Qadhi's. I listened and wallahi I got hooked. I think because of many reasons like clarity in inunciation, logical and linking topics to the Sira of Prophet SWA, generous with providing wisdom from the Quran and Hadith, openness to the current plight of the umma, considers unity of all umma regardless of faction

CAIR Action political pac is our answer MashAllah to be politically active and influential and have our voices represented in government. Thank God for this initiative and plan. We should all support it financially and in every way possible because it’s our way of never letting another Gaza happen again and never again letting politicians totally ignore us. As Muslims it’s our duty to be united and involved in civics. CAIR Action is the best way for us to do that. May Allah bless this initiative and all involved and all who will support it because it will help generations of Muslims to come.

The introduction' MashaAllah sheikh. I have learned the seerah through u as a wasilah. But whenever u narrate the seerah it becomes new as if I have never heard it before. May Allah give u good haqibah sheikh. Barakallahu fiino gamiha.

I remember Nihad Awad when he came to Melbourne, Australia in the early 2000s Ma sha Allah.

[@LifeinAmerica2022]

He came to our masjid few months ago and he mentioned the same for the scholarships of journalism, etc to bridge the gap

[@WorkStation-q7d]

He spoke my mind, Masha Allah. We need to meet soon 😊

[@heinzdirk69]

Thank you.

[@azhariqbal1390]

May Allah be pleasd with you Dr. Yasir and Brother Nihad Awad for your efforts for the Muslim Ummah. It is high time for the Muslims around the world to wake up before it's too late. Especially the American Muslim community has a great responsibility on its shoulders as reminded by Brother Nihad. May Allah guide us all. Aameen

[@shukrimoe2814]

That's good strategic thinking , lets see action..thank you 😊

[@AKirenM]

Walaikumusalaam Wa rahmatullahi Wa barakahatuhu Barak Allahu Feekum, Aameen Thank you to the both of you for having this discussion, emphasizing the importance to broaden American Muslims’ field of studies/careers, and participating in the voting process in sha Allah. May Allah (swt) guide us all to do this through halaal means, implementing and practicing “the good” our perfect religion teaches, and attain Allah (swt)’s pleasure, Aameen. Jazakum Allahu khairun As salaam u alaikum Wa rahmatullahi Wa barakahatuhu

Superb Sheikh Qadi superb talk, very realistic. Jazakallah khairun.

[@iprph90]

JazakAllah Khair, Sheikh Yasir Qadhi and Nihad Awad, for such an enlightening discussion! It's time for Muslim scholars to engage in a robust debate on how the categories of Zakat-**Al-Mu’allafatu Qulubuhum** and **Fi Sabilillah**-can be connected to fund scholarships and SuperPAC programs. Remarkably, Muslims donated $1.8 billion to charities in 2022!

[@2cool2smart]

Allah Hu Akbar for great people like this

[@LifeinAmerica2022]

Brother Nihad Awad, it was a pleasure listening to you during your visit at Islamic Center of Hawthorne sometime ago where you talked about Masjids need to send youth through scholarships to journalisms and other areas of studies to bridge the gaps we Muslim Americans are experiencing now, just like as you have said in this video. Thank you. I agree with you.

If you want to see how the media plays a role in this read "Israel-Palestine on Record: How the New York Times Misreports Conflict in the Middle East" Another book that highlights this phenomenon in the media is "Discourse analysis and media attitudes : the representation of Islam in the British press" by Baker, Paul. You can also read "CULTURAL DIVERSITY AND THE U.S. MEDIA" by Yahya R. Kamalipour and Theresa Carilli, Editors 2 other good books about the topic are: The General's Son: Journey of an Israeli in Palestine by Miko Peled and Holy Lands: Reviving Pluralism in the Middle East by Nicolas Pelham

The man in suite offers insightful advice to the Muslim community. America practices democracy not theocracy, thus Muslims should endeavor to form an advocacy group to participate in US electoral process. In order to be effective and have significant electoral relevance in the US, Muslim community leaders should discourage any attack of non- muslims by islamic fanatics and always distancing themselves from anyone chanting "death to America" within their sphere. However, the Muslim community needs to build political capacity with others, as US elections have proved time without numbers that no single community can elect a US President. For example in 2016 presidential election, the last poll taken in the week leading to the elections indicated 95% of Muslims supported Hillary Clinton. This was after Mr Trump insulted the entire Muslims community, still he won Michigan and Mrs Clinton lost the state, despite having Muslims as her campaign officer in Michigan. Therefore, it's valid to suggest that building political capacity with other minority groups and having good Muslims (not fanatics) to be the Muslim face in the US electoral process would be an effective way for Muslim Americans to have electoral power in the US democratic system.

America practices democracy ahahahahhaha like how Kamala was not even voted in ahahahahahahahaha

[@MSharifTrading]

As Muslims I hope we don’t vote for Kamala when AIPAC is backing her more then Trump

This guy has been the head of CAIR forever. It’s time for a regime change. You cannot have a PR company lobbying US Comgressman and public speaking with an Arabic accent. There are so many qualified US born Muslims that are qualified and look the part.
