Full Transcript: Arif Huskic on Islam0phobia
Arif: People in the community, they was unfamiliar with Islam at all. So to say about any faith anything negative, should know faith to find something positive. So many people find themself that Islam as religion is great religion, fast growing religion and that is a religion of peace and uniting the people. So the people even embracing Islam which is, which is unbelievable that they are embracing Islam even after they were thinking how to shut mosques down in 2002 and 3. A lot of people— non-Muslims back then— they are now Muslims because they tried to find out what they hate so once they find out what they really hate they become to be lovers of that and they are Muslims now, thank God. So if God give you something no one taking you away from you. So the religion of Islam is granted from God and that is in his hands who love it or doesn't like it— I really cant help, this is from God. Really I would recommend everyone who doesn't have a knowledge about Islam to take a book or go on Internet now time you can google about Islam, about any questions you may have. Feel free go to any mosques, talk to people, just friendly talk, no “I hate you,” well you don't know why and later on— you cannot hate your pants because you cannot go without pants. You cannot hate your shoes, you cannot be without shoes, is right? You cannot hate food, you have to have food to survive, to have a life. So people without faith, they are really without faith so people without faith and without knowledge of faith— this is two different things. If people no have a faith, they don't have a faith, they know nothing about it. But if they no have a knowledge and they have a some faith in their heart, they will find through reading, through friendship, through nice conversation with friends and they will find out that, that this is something that you really need just like food.
Billion point five of Muslims in the world— we are one family. So to hate one Billion point five families, that is something really to not to know about it. So we cannot drive on the road if we don't know where we driving to. If you moving from here to Detroit, you really have to know the road, how to get there. If you don't know the road to Detroit, you will hate Detroit and Detroit is so beautiful city and to hate them because you don’t know the road— so if people hate Islam or discriminating Islam and they don't know about Islam, later on they will find out they made mistake. Islam is peace and someone hate Islam, that person hate peace.
