five years ago I visited Bosnia Herzegovina and I was very surprised when I woke up in the morning with adzan for morning prayer, there are so many masjid in Bosnia that you can find in every corner of the streets, and off course you don't have to worry about whether the food is halal or not because everything is halal in Bosnia, and there are no other country in Europe that can give you the same experiences and ambiences like Bosnia,
Bosnia is not an ordinary European country, it's the most beautiful European country that I ever visited, the sky is crystal clear, the water is very clean you can drink every tap water in Bosnia, also the food is very cheap compare to other European country and off course more delicious.
Bosnia is the only country that I wish I could ever visit again, so I'm very happy that today I saw this lecture about Bosnia history, and I hope someday our syaikhs and scholars can arrange some historical tour to Bosnia. because so many people visited Andalusia, Bukhara or Istanbul....but rarely visit Bosnia.
Jazakallah Khair
I am from Bosnia and its very nice to hear that from you. You are welcome to Bosnia anytime 🥰
MaashaAllah akhi you've made me want to visit biidnillah
Ohooo suzan devy thanks dia it's as if am in Bosnia yet am in Uganda
I'm from Bosnia and everything is correct from drinking water from the tap to beautiful clean rivers, etc. the only country in Europe that is more European than Europe where there is a mosque, a church, a synagogue within 200 meters (but the evil wants to destroy it, they didn't succeed with the war, now they want to destroy it peacefully, politically
Albania, Kosovo & Macedonia are predominantly Muslims countries in Europe neighbouring Bosnian you would like or there too I think very similar geography & culture
As Salamu Alaikum. After the Bosnian war the Serbs also did the same in Kosovo in 1998/1999. I was 10 years old when the Serbs tried to ethnically cleans Kosovo. I saw it with my eyes, i was there during the war but Alhamdulillah we escaped to England as refugees. Kosovo is over 90% musilms. May Allah protect every innocent person.
Thank you dr. Yasir for remembering us (the muslims of Bosnia&Herzegowina) and lecturing about what happened. They raped & killed regardless of age and gender and are not embarrassed calling themselves MEN or SOLDIERS. All that happened while Europe and US were watching! They are proud of what they did and their youth openly and publicly celebrates the massacres almost every soccer match. HasbunAllah wa ni'mal wakeel. Hopefully we all are awakened by now and put our trust only in Allah swt. Sheikh Yasir may Allah swt give you best in dunya and akhirah. Salaam & best wishes from your Bosnian brother!!!
May Allah bless you for speaking about Bosnia. I feel like many people in the US don't know about what happened.
Thank you dr. Yasir for this lecture. Greetings from Bosnia 🙂 hope to see you in our country 🇧🇦
Subhaana Allah! In Makka and just finished Hajj and in my hotel there are many Bosnians filling the prayer rooms Al Hamdulillah 💖
May Allah grant our Bosnian Muslims the highest ranks in Jannah ameen 🤲🏽
Before the war began, around 1990, the local Serbs in Sarajevo were visited by armed men who told them to move out of the city by a certain date, and almost all of them kept it a secret among themselves, that's how much the Serbian people as a collective wished for the massacre. (They started their propaganda before 1989, they made a movie called "Boj Na Kosovu", "The Battle On Kosovo Field" in 1989 showing how they are "heroic" in fighting muslims. You can google the "RAM Plan" and "SANU Memorandum" for more.)
Bosnian bus drivers would start disappearing. They go to work, start driving their usual route like they did the day before - and they never come back. Only to be found dead in a ditch somewhere later, sometimes even the passengers, and rumors of the buses being driven to a particular location in the woods were circulating. The Serbs would try to deprive the Bosnians of any means to escape by doing that, and they used the buses to barricade roads out of the city. The atmosphere among people was very unnerving, it was as if you sat in your office chair waiting for something to detonate inside of it - and you had no idea why you were still sitting there when you think that is going to happen, and you look at people around you, you see some go on secret meetings(Serbs), others can't focus, and only a few(atheists) act as if everyone is paranoid. Those same atheists were among the first to die, some of them went out with signs saying "Brothers, we love Tito" when the city was surrounded, thinking that the Serbs would let them walk out. They were all shot. People who had married a Serb or Croat before the war began - their spouse left them and took their children away, and never heard from them again.
The Siege of Sarajevo was the 8th longest in history.
Before the war began, the Serbs started stationing tanks around the city, and spread propaganda internationally that the Bosnians had cached weapons, and that it was a threat to the Serbs. But the Serbs themselves knew it was not true. So when they began the war, they started rolling in their tanks into Grbavica.
They did not expect that the local police force would have found a few abandoned rocket launchers among riot gear in their local armory, and teamed up with the local mafia members who were stuck in the siege. They ambushed the tanks and fired some rockets to damage a few of the tanks, making the Serbs start to believe that their own falsified rumors were true, so the Serbs retreated behind Grbavica for the time being. After that, they shelled the city for several years, and stationed snipers around the city mountains to fire at civilians trying to go out to forage food.
Eventually the food was running out, and the UN would not protect the city, except the airport where they would deliver food. And the Serbs then surrounded the airport to make sure the food would not get out to the Bosnians. But again, they did not expect that the Bosnians would dig a tunnel (called the "Tunnel of Hope") far away from the airport, all the way to the airport, and use it to get all of the supplies past the Serbs.
Then, overtime, as people managed to ambush a few Serb soldiers at night with kitchen knives and often their bare hands or hand-made contraptions, they would gather the dropped weapons. They used it for more and more ambushes, collecting weapons until there was an army division inside of Sarajevo. They even used cars to shock or blockade convoys. It took a lot of ingenuity, bravery and perseverence. It's a miracle that it even managed to succeed, considering how many Bosnians never prepared, thinking "why would my neighbors attacks me?" - you fool yourself into thinking everything is fine. Think that if you want to, but you can also think that while you have a preparation ready. Because if war never happens, but you prepared, you lost nothing. But if war happens, and you aren't prepared, only a miracle will prevent you from losing everything.
There are many incredible stories from the war, I wish it was collected somewhere, maybe even put into a documentary series.
I wish this interview was translated (it has rhetorical depth, Alija Izetbegovic was an author, a very educated man and skilled orator, a true intellectual, so a plain translation would not do the video justice), it would have been useful for anyone who wants to hear some more about the war from our first president:
czcams.com/video/kXIU_NWoo8c/video.html
I should also mention, as you may all come across Serb propaganda even today where they pretend that "Bosnians are only Serbs who converted to Islam, and there were no Bosnians before 1992" or sometimes they say "Bosnians are Turks" and such. Here are a couple of facts directly from medieval sources:
In Hagia Sophia, Manuel I Komnenos, a Greek Orthodox emperor of the Byzantine Empire, had a conciliar edict issued in 1166 just prior to his reconquest of the western Balkans. The edict is engraved on a stone, which is built into a place near the Hagia Sophia enclosure. On it, it says:
"Manouēl, born in the purple, in Christ the God faithful emperor and autocrat of the Romans, most pious, ever Augustus, Augustus, Isauricus, Cilicicus, Armeniacus, Dalmaticus, Hungaricus, *Bosniacus*, *Croaticus*, Lazicus, Ibericus, Bulgaricus, *Serbicus*, Zicchicus, Chazaricus, Gothicus, God-guided, heir of the crown of the great Constantine"
It is still there to this day. And you can find a picture of it in "The Legend of Basil the Bulgar-Slayer" by Paul Stephenson, page 91.
As for religion, there are many, many letters, documents and witness testimonies from the medieval period testifying to that the Bosnians were dualists who believed that Jesus was never crucified, and that baptism is devilry. They hated the cross and icons(the Bosnian high djed was cursed by the Serbian orthodox church at the synod of 1221 for this). They believed that meat(except for fish) was forbidden for the ascetic order(djeds) of the "Bosnian Church" as it was called, they believed that wine was forbidden. They used to read the Psalms a lot, but they also took 2 Corinthians 4:4 literally, believing that Satan is the god and creator of this world, but that God is the creator of the immaterial world, and of souls. There are two debates recorded where the "Bosnian heathens/heretics" debate with Christians. One is recorded by Symeon of Thessalonica(1381-1429) where he uses the word "Cuduger" to refer to the believer of the Bosnian religion, and another is "Disputatio inter Christianum Romanum et Patarinum Bosnensem" from 1242 CE, which contains a lengthy 31-page debate in Latin between a Catholic bishop and a Bosnian "heretic". In "Rad Jugoslavenske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti"(in Bosnian), Volumes 8-9, pages 130-131, there is more information compiled about, for example, that Italians from the city of Chieri used to travel to Bosnia to learn the Bogomil/Cathar/Manichaean faith (used interchangeably in those times because it evolved like: Manichaeanism -> Paulicianism -> Bogomilism -> Bosnian Church -> Catharism) before they returned to teach the Italians about it. Some of them are mentioned by name: Moreto Rabellator(1347 CE), Ivan Narro(1360 CE), Granoni Bencio(1360 CE), Petar Patria(1377 CE), Bernardo Rascherio(1380 CE), Jacobini Patria(1382 CE). It is said that because Paulicians used to live near the Arabs during the Muslim conquests, the Paulicians fought on the side of the Muslims at one point, after which they were forcibly moved to Bulgaria by the Byzantines as a punishment, where they created Bogomilism in secret in the 9th century. And from there, it spread into Bosnia, which might explain why the Bosnian religion had a lot of random similarities to Islam.
The Serbian church itself has evidence for example that the entire north-western region, where 30%(410 067) of all Serbs in Bosnia live, there was not a single Serb living there until after the Turkish conquest of Banja Luka, Bihac and those cities:
"The First Schematism of The Bihac-Banjalukan Serbian Metropolis", page 75:
"And that which the people hold, or that which they are told, that this monastary is the endowmnet of the Nemanjics(medieval Serbian royal dynasty), and that they cite as evidence also some monastery key from the year 1111., does not agree with history from that excerpt att all, because just as in the whole of the Una-river area as well as the entire Bosnian Krajina region, there was no orthodox people before the Turks."
In fact, there's no evidence that they crossed the Drina river at all before Petar Gojnikovic of Serbia attacked Bosnia in 897, and Porphyrgenitus writes in De Administrando De Imperio that the Bulgarians captured almost every single Serb in 924 CE and sent them to imprisonment in Bulgaria, apart from 50 men who hid in the forest and survived off of foraging and hunting. The Byzantine army later set them free.
In a letter from John of Capistrano to Pope Calixtus III on the 4th of July of 1455 CE, he writes:
"Many of these Bosnian heretics, who had followed the faith of the Patarenes, on hearing the word of God, converted to the Roman faith, but were prevented from so reconciling by the Metropolitan of the Rascians(Serbians), among others; many of them dying outside the faith, preferring to do so than to take the faith o the Rascians." (you can find this in "The Praised and the Virgin", page 621, by Rusmir Mahmutćehajić)
And what might be more interesting is that the Bosnians had fought against invading crusaders many times, but it only says once on wikipedia. In the middle of the 14th century(around 1350 CE), they beat two invading crusader armies in Usora and Donji Kraji (the Christians erase this because it hurts them to know the truth, but we have it in historical records of the Catholic church).
The Hungarians had been harrassing and attacking Bosnia for centuries by that point, and in 1415 CE they planned a large invasion again (in 1241 CE they failed spectacularly, when they were just about to win, and then the Mongols came and destroyed Hungary, effectively liberating Bosnia) - this time, one of the boys of the Radenovic aristocratic family who had been abducted by Ottoman soldiers during a raid on their estates, he had climbed the career ladder and gotten to the rank of a commander. He managed to get the sultan's support to bring 15 000 Ottoman soldiers to Doboj, joining the Bosnian army, and together with the previously disunited Bosnian nobility, they formed a 25 000 strong army which completely and utterly destroyed the Hungarians under the Doboj Castle. So much so that the Hungarians did not return for another 10-15 years. That is when it starts to appear in Catholic church letters and records to the pope, things like "The Bosnian king cannot join the crusades with his army, because the Bosnians disbelievers prefer the Turks over the Christians".
Sadly though, when the Ottomans did come to conquer Bosnia(1463 CE), and the Bosnians opened the gates to the Turks, hoping to join them as friends - the Turks took 200 000 of the people as slaves, and 50 000 young boys into the devshirme. Another 40 000 people fled to Herzegovina which was still free, and around 50 000 to Jajce which was under Hungarian rule. That is why Herzegovina and northern Bosnia were not conquered until about 1527 CE, the refugees fought the Ottomans very hard because of that, there are accounts of that as well in Latin. There is a note from some travellers as well that the Bosnians told them, when they were asked why they convert; "The Turk, when you convert to his religion, he leaves you alone. But the Catholic, when you convert to his religion, he still does not leave you, nor your family, nor your property alone." By 1520, around 45% of Bosnia and Herzegovina was muslim. By 1624 CE 67% were muslim (and there were only 75 000 Serbs in Bosnia that year, i.e.11% of the whole population). The last Bogomil family in Bosnia was the family Helez in Konjic in Catholic written record around 1863-1873 CE, they also converted to Islam.
But again, the Serbs on Wikipedia try to erase any mention of such things, because they don't want people to know.
As-salamu alaykum. As a Bosnian genocide survivor, I am deeply concerned with factual and historical errors.
What is most disturbing is the repeatedly mentioned word "Civil War." That is something that is constantly pushed by those who deny genocide as well as "liberals" in order to minimize Muslim victims and "program others" that all sides are equally guilty. That is a grave lie!
Everyone knows that it was aggression from neighboring states, Serbia, Monte Negro (at that time, Yugoslavia) and Croatia. That is a fact, which was proven in the court in Haag in several sentences, check a sentence against general Radoslav Krstic and others.
"Majority Muslim voted for freedom".
The majority of people in Bosnia (not only Muslims), voted for INDEPENDENCE ca 64% of the registered voters (March 1992).
"The Serbs" had an army, "army rebelled and started civil war".
The Yugoslav army was controlled by Serbs and had large units in Bosnia at the time. Army did not rebel, it was the Serbian orthodox separatists who declared their own state on the 9th of January 1992, before the Bosnian referendum for independence. They knew they had the support of the Yugoslav army which invaded shortly after from Serbia and Monte Negro.
"After civil war countries were created".
No. Bosnia was already a recognized country and accepted into the UN in July 1992.
Please do not use Wikipedia for checking facts. You have many Bosnians in the US who can help you with facts.
thank you for setting this straight! May Allah reward you.
Also important: Many Serb (orthodox) Christian priests inflamed the people (Serbs) to go to war.
Is it true that the anti Muslim hatred of the Serbs stems from centuries of Ottoman imperial occupation during which time some Serbs converted to Islam and Muslims became a majority in previously Serb held territory eg. Kosovo?
Also is it true that during WW2, the Croats of the Ustashe and allied Muslim militia (the SS Hardshar division) collaborated with the Nazis against Serbs? Putting them in Jerasovic concentration camp where majority of those killed were Serbs?
@@fuadahmed5501
Ottomans never supported the Nazis, they wanted to remain neutral, but were sucked into the western war. They find away of dragging the muslims in as always.
Like how they dragged pakistan into afghanistan war, "your with us or against" atitude. Pakistan had no quelms with afghanistan, we were used to each and similar traditions and culture. With border people like pushtuns living in pakistan and afghanistan for centuries, no issues.
@@fuadahmed5501
On a first part yes there was some force coversion but overall very little. Serbs systematically hate us.
Second there was collusion with Nazi but nowhere near they portray to be. It was croats who did all the killings. In both cases it is nothing but side facts that they use as primary evidence.
@@fuadahmed5501 no, that is serbian propaganda and lie. Historical documented facts disprove that. Turkey has open ottoman archives were this can be verified, as well as Bosnian. Truth is that ottomans brought serbs to this areas as shepherds for ottoman army. They never lived here. During many decades they grow in numbers and then ottomans gave them sovereignty while slaughtering Muslims in Bosnia demanding the same.
As serbs gave no culture nor language they stole it from Bosnians and now claiming it is theirs. Classical plan to steal others culture erase them from one place and rewrite history. This is facts which even Serbian historians agree on.
Muslims in Bosnia are last stronghold of Islam in Europe. Sadly our fate seems to be like for Muslims in Spain.
For the situation in India, if nothing is done today about it, there will be nothing left to do in the future. May Allah protect us all and strengthen our unity in this world.
I am not Bosnian, but in august I will go to sarajevo inshaa Allah for the 2nd time. It's a beautifull place and country.
I remember seeing news reports of the Serbo Bosnian conflicts when I was a pre teen. It was the first time that I realized that Muslims existed in that part of the world. Later on as an adult I was fortunate to meet fellow Muslim brothers and sisters from Bosnia on the area where I worked at that time.
Powerful speech, sheikh. I was a child in elementary school when the Bosnian genocide was happening so we didn’t really learn about it. And even later (middle school, maybe high school) they covered it so briefly that we didn’t get the full picture.
When I was listening to this lecture, tear was flowing down from my eyes.
Subhanallah shaykh, that lecture was soo informative and whatever u said made a lot of sense..
May Allah swta grant you Jannah for speaking about my country,l was in the same war as a 4 year old child who lost 4 uncles and father and many cousins
May Allah grant them jannah, ameen
Alhamdulillah Shaykh for bringing this important informative info to the youth in our society and around the world 🌎! they are our future and need to be educated to what's really going on around the globe! May Allah help the future generations of youth to hear and understand going forward! Ameen 💙🤍
Ma shaa Allah alhamdulilah ❤️
Jazaak Allahu khairan For Sharing Sheik🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻❤️❤️❤️
I love the historical conversation sheikh jazak allah khair
jazakAllah khayran Shaykna for always educating us
May Allah reward you for speaking the truth
Selam aleikum from a Muslim from ex Yugoslavia.

Thank you Dr Yasir Qadhi this was history that I did not know there is always Allah SWT.
Cezakallahu hayr
Ya Shaykh Yasser, I followed your past lectures about massacres & civil wars that befall the Muslim ummah
1. The war between Aishah r.a. and Ali r.a. (Othman r.a. was massacred/asasssinated by "Muslim" then)
2. The war of Yazid ibn Muawiyyah vs the people of Madinah alMunawarah
3. The war of Yazid ibn Muawiyaah where one of the head of the grandson of our beloved prophet Muhammad s.a.w. was decapitated
4. The wars during each change of the Caliphates from the 4 rightfully guided Caliphs r.a. to the Ummayyads then to Abassids then to Uthmaniyyah
5. The war led by the great great grandfather of the current king of Jordan against the Uthmani Caliphate in Madinah
6. The wars between Sunni and Shiah
7. Up to the present on-going Syrian civil war and the war against ISIS or Daesh
I only list those I remember. What lessons do I and all of us Muslims learn about Muslims killing Muslims from the nascent stage of the ummah up to this very day when the definition of a Muslim is that another Muslim is supposedly safe from his/her tongue and hands.
The umma does not like talking about this, it appears. We only talk when we are the victims of non-Muslims. Jazākallāhu khayran for this reminder.
And also the Bengali genocide of 1971 perpetrated by Pakistan. To stop Bangladesh becoming independent from Pakistani misrule and oppression.
Yasir Qadhi is a Pakistani. So he shoujd talk about the racism and genocide denial amongst Pakistanis even today. We can’t expect to only talk about non Muslims attacking Muslims and ignore when Muslims do bad too or try to minimise things. That means we are hypocrites.
Allah O Akbar❤️
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon
Salam 3alakom
What about the series of prophets? Have not seen any new lecture in that series since almost 4 months.
Inna dhulma dhulumaatu yaumul qiyaama. This is my motto every day, punishment of Allah s.w is the only JUSTICE
Very good reminder and brings back painful memories.
I would respectfully disagree with the second condition for genocidal parties. It’s not religious interpretation or offshoot religious groups but ideology in general. Any ideology. Biggest massacres in history were carried out by secularists and atheists.
Another thing that should’ve been mentioned: Pakistan fought against the arms embargo and sent weaponry to help the Muslims. Pakistan and ISI were roundly criticized by america but they didn’t care. This helped turned the tide and forced these kuffar to act In favor of the Bosnians. This is why there is love from the Bosniaks for the Pakistanis.
Iran was another country which defied the international community and the arms embargo, and managed to pack container ships full of much-needed supplies, which included weapons of various types, and sailed them to Croatian ports along the Dalmatian coast. The Croats wouldn't allow the ships to offload the cargo without first seizing a large chunk of it for themselves, but eventually most of the supplies found their way to the intended recipients.
There were also Muslim fighters who volunteered to fight alongside their Bosnian brothers on the frontlines, who came from all over the Muslim world.. i.e., Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Turkey, Chechnya, the central Asian republics, etc..
Needless Pakistani chest thumping.
It was US-led NATO intervention and not Pakistan that allowed the Muslim-Croat alliance to counterattack against the Serbs and take back their land. No Muslim countries were involved in that.
@@WordToMomsYo You're absolutely right, infact, Iran played a bigger role in terms of numbers of troops and weaponry sent to Bosnia. Sorry for skipping it.
@@fuadahmed5501
I wasn't "chest thumping" on behalf of Pakistan. I am not Pakistani. I did however make the mistake of skipping other Muslim countries who also provided major help like Iran.
No one is disputing that once US and NATO finally committed to intervening fully is when the war ultimately ended. However, they took their sweet time as Shaykh YQ said. However, your minimizing of the efforts of the Muslims countries such as Iran and Pakistan is foolish. Even Richard Holbrooke (the UN former chief Balkans peace negotiator at the time) had admitted that without their support, the Muslims of Bosnia wouldn't have had a chance to survive and counter with their assault until the help from the West arrived.
It was not civil war brother it was clear agression and mission to clear all muslims from Bosnia
Thank you. Bosnian genocide was the 2nd biggest genocide in Europe after WW2
I was looking at Dajjal, he was looking at the sky and thinking something. #IBelieveMuhammadQasim

Hello
We have few small far-right catholic sects in Poland too. It's super funny to listen to them saying how "islam is evil" and how "every catholic knows this", when in fact the "Lumen gentium", dogmatic constitution of the church (basically the 2nd most important document in the roman church, after the bible), says something opposite - that judaism and islam is THE REASON why muslims and jews are first in the line to heaven, for "living the faith of the fathers". So basically elementary knowledge of the roman catholic theology makes it literally impossible for a person to be islamophobe or a anti-Semite... But they manage to not know basics of their religion, and still organize some sectarian groups, "praying" circles, and spread evil ideologies and lies about the religion they claim to be a part of...
Thankfully they are shunned everywhere they go, and nobody takes them serious.
Are you Polish?
Please also cover genocide in Bangladesh by Pakistan......muslim against muslim......
Yasir is a Pakistani. As a British Bangladeshi Muslim I can guarantee he won’t talk about this.
@@fuadahmed5501 I don't know much about what happened to Bangladeshis but I know that there was a lot of bloodshed. I agree it would be beneficial to learn about it and hope to see a video by Sheikh Yasir Qadhi on it. That being said I think the way you're talking to the sheikh in this comment and your othet one is inappropriate. Maybe you are taking out issues in your personal life on him.
Supported by Hindu fascists.
You do know massacre was also done on pakistanis. You fall into tribalism jahilliyah, crying over language and your tribe, falling for rumors and suspicion of muslim brother and sisters, listening to indian hindus call for war and dismantling of a muslim nation, rather then on religious grounds and allied yourself with worst form of idol worshippers against your muslim brethren, choosing your tribe over your ummah and then you have audacity to keep reminding the world of our dumb fight and over again, over again, over what??? Skin and tribalism...we fall for call jahilliyah, I am bengali, I am pakistani etc. For me my race is not important, stop reminding us that we muslims fall for tribalism which led to our own innocent muslims being killed on both sides. Such a dumb war
@@salampakistan3691 Why did Muslim bengalis fight Muslim pakistanis to begin with?
UN watch did exactly what they made for: "watch"
In this world these evil people can maybe keep on like nothing happened and escape judgement, but on that "Day" none will be able to...
all this talks about ummah and other stuff just makes me laugh. ummah died in Speicher massacre. ummah died in Mosul.
All these are in Europe (Ballkans)
🇽🇰 Kosovo 95% Muslim
🇦🇱 Albania 80% Muslim
🇧🇦 Bosnia 55% Muslim
🇲🇰 Macedonia 50% muslim
Yasir Qadhi only talks about genocides where Muslims are victims and Non Muslims the perpetrators.
What about where Muslims kill other Muslims? Often for religious reasons? Eg. the very bad treatment of Kurds by Arabs, Turks and Iranians? Why this inconsistency? Is this really Islam or personal bias?
Also as a Pakistani, dare he talk about the genocide of Bengalis in 1971?
I really appreciate a Pakistani Muslim can see this extreme bias of the Muslim religious speakers and actually point it out on a public platform. The fact that even today Muslim population is growing in India and no Muslims are even trying to leave India. No regard to that. Just separating Muslims from other people is the main goal of these speeches.
@@srinivasarameshkotikalapud1838 I’m a Bangladeshi Muslim. And I have zero tolerance for Islamist, Zionist or Hinduvta politics. Religion should not be used by policians to come to power by dividing people. Preachers like Yasir Qadhi should be consistent and call out wrongs done by fellow Muslims as well as non Muslims in order to be effective advocates for peaceful co-existence.
‘What was Yugoslavia, a figment of the imagination’
No Yasir, that would be your imaginary Caliphate you support.
No single Muslim polity ever ruled from the Maghreb to India to Indonesia.
If you actually followed his work, you'd know he is against the idea of chasing after a khilafa.
@@sammu Yasir Qadhi says in his Khutba on the anniversary of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire ‘one of the greatest political disasters of the last fourteen and a half centuries’. Added to his questioning of the nation state here and his questioning of relations with other faith communities, it is reasonable to infer that he supports the idea of a Caliphate and wants people to work for it.
Personally, I have family in Bangladesh and as a Muslim don’t want more Muslim countries to look like Syria and Afghanistan. I don’t want hardship and suffering for people. So I call him out on this as support for a Caliphate is a minority trend.
@@fuadahmed5501
I am not sure what “questioning of the nation state here” and “questioning of relations with other faith communities” means. Please be specific. Also, just because he mentioned on the ANNIVERSARY of the event of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire (much like this lecture itself, being on the anniversary), does not mean he wishes for a caliphate. On the contrary, one of the reasons the salafis/certain Muslim political parties are after him is the fact that he is totally against the idea of chasing after a caliphate. He calls it unrealistic and extremely problematic. I can cite you examples if you require.
Bangladesh may not look like Syria/Afghanistan, (neither of them part of any caliphate but products of dictatorships and colonialism) it has its own issues of being ruled by a dictator.
