Massive respect for you telling this story Soufyan. It should be heard. You faced an injustice and I feel mad listening to your story nevermind having to experience it like you have. JazakAllah Kair brother, you managed to hold your tongue when you were enraged and show the actions of a true man and good Muslim. May Allah reward you and bless your family InshAllah.
- Not even surprised family - Similar timing to our Brother Abdul Muhammad in Chicago after he was unjustly removed from Lindblom - May Allah exalt the righteous - ASA - 🙏🏼
It is extremely sad , you don’t have to agree with each other but respect someone’s values, beliefs and morals. I worked in the vulnerable sector and was told I would have to remove my hijab as it was a health and safety issue. I demanded it should be given to me in writing but they refused. I could feel the atmosphere was intense but I dug my heels in and thought “ I don’t think so”, but as time passed I realised even my fellow Muslim co-workers did not take a stance. I lost respect for my employer and my co-workers and left . If Allah swt closes one door another one opens subhanAllah. Im in a much better environment now . Alhumdulilah
Bro, this video had me in my feelings. I had to pause it a couple of times. It was absolutely disgusting to hear about your and your father's mistreatment simply because of your race. No one should ever face such prejudice and discrimination, especially in a professional setting where diversity and inclusion should be embraced and celebrated. Your experiences were a stark reminder of the work that still needs to be done to eradicate racism. What truly makes me proud is how you stood up for yourself and advocated for your rights. You refused to be a silent victim and used your voice to challenge the injustice you were subjected to. Your courage and determination in the face of adversity are qualities that I hope rub off on the young minds you helped shape. As the saying goes, "Karma has no menu; you get served what you deserve." I firmly believe that those responsible for the racism you endured will eventually face the consequences of their actions. Whether through the lessons they learn or the justice that prevails, their actions will not go unpunished. With that said, being of mixed race and living in the South (USA), I have personally experienced racism within my own family to such an extent that last names were changed in an effort to disassociate from "black" people who now share the same blood. I could go on for days. Although I was triggered, this video was superb, added more to your character, and was yet another example of how good of a human you are!
I had a racist experience when applying for uni, and it was the most multicultural university you can think of but unfortunately the department and course I wanted to go on wasn’t. And there was proof that it was right out racism because I had a girl who was also my friend but she was white who applied for the same course, had the same tutors interview her on the same day! And they asked me questions like will your parents take you out of uni to marry you off? Do your parents know you are applying for this course! All because I was a Muslim Pakistani girl who wanted to do photography! Alhamdulillah I went to a better university and got places but my friend who went to that uni and on to that course ended up failing her first year along with half the class and she also told me that her class only had polish white people and not a single coloured person! If that isn’t our right racism then I don’t know what is!
I was living in London and working in a school very multicultural school. Then moving outside into a smaller rural place and working there is such a huge difference. I am the only Muslim hijab wearing teacher there. And they didn't know anything about Ramadan until I started.

Salam everyone I am outraged but not surprised that racism exists in UK. Respect to this young blackman Muslim a double whammy and the biggest disadvantage there is. Yet, alhamdulillah he is thriving because He is married and has a child. Does anyone understand how difficult it is to find reasonable partners nowadays, well its crappy difficult Well done to you both. You seemed to have found a path.
They were 110% trying to find any excuse to lay you off and cover their blatant racism. Just them casually using racial slurs is enough to show how little they respect people of colour. As it’s said, “with hardship comes ease”, Alhamdullilah Allah swt brought ease for you. On a more positive note, absolutely love these podcasts. I remember watching your ethnicity Q&A video 2 years ago and you’ve grown so much since then. Keep them coming & wishing you the best.
So sorry Sufyan It was racism and. My goodness it is getting worst everywhere. There is no place one can go and be free from that. I hope you are happier with your present job. May you be blessed .😢
Wow, that hit me that did. Especially with your mum and dad, given the time i spent around them.. hope they are well and its really nice to see you and your family alwAys smiling.. may Allah continue to shower his blessings on you.. be nice to catch up properly sometime.
There was deffo racism at that place and it’s horrible that you had to go through that 🙈 But Alhumdulliah it’s over now 😊 ur daughter is so adorable Ma’Sha’Allah 😊 love you all ❤❤❤
I am truly enjoying your new podcast set up. It's so sad that you worked really hard and get treated that way. I felt your hurt. May Allah allow you both to grow closer to him. Ameen
I've been in that situation before and when it was first said in the teacher briefing. Neither you or the sista addressed it. They took that as passive acceptance. Like you guys later discussed that gave them a pass to act like they normally act. In my situation, I addressed it the second it happened ( on a not so professional manner) and let them know it's unacceptable. The way I made it clear was not only my words but my body language. They did not want to test me.
100%, brother. You’re spot on. Was a few years ago now. When I was younger and we heard such things, we’d fight. Caught me off guard that time round and I mismanaged it, but Alhamdulillah, we learned a lot. Never again. Blessings to you and your family, brother.
Omg I’ve was working for a very big insurance company for 19yrs and one fine day I got pulled in to a office and they dragged out some of my sicknotes from 2-3yrs prior and started questioning me about it, didn’t let me explain, accused me of fraudulent sicknotes when they were issued by my neurologist
Wow this is crazy in the day and age you and your dad had to go through this experience they didn't deserve use that's why God took use away from that situation 😢
@@TheXs.Official Patience pays off and you stayed professional and you got your reward. When you lose it that’s when you fail and there’s no respect. You know the importance of how these little kids look up to us and you proved what can be achieved. Full hulk mode in the mind with a smile 😂
I worked in a school in the Egerton Village. Some of the children hadn’t met a Muslim before either. I was probably the first Muslim hijabi they had seen.
I can't even say sorry to how embarrassed I feel for you right now. No human deserve degrading titles, we all come from one. I wonder how the whole world react if we saw that one and he is not any of their ethnicities?
when sofyan talked about the principal who reminded him of ms trunchball and after he mentioned her office - Im thinking does she have "the chockie" 🤣 but jeeezz ms trunchball had framed self portrait of herself too in her mansion- yall arent judging but uhhhh judging 🙈🙈🙈
That was racism and should not have happened. But i wonder why you choose to live in the UK / western world when in another video you mentioned you dont like the education ststem - but you work as teachers??? And although there is some racism luckily in the UK there are employment laws which is why you and your dad were able to get a payout. if this happened in a muslim country i highly doubt youd feel like you could get yourself justice how you were able to in the UK being a white country. Would they have have laws that respect ethnic minorities? I doubt it
It was a violation of your human rights. Discrimination in the workplace. Allah swt Tests those He Loves and will be just in judgement. It all worked out Alhamdulillah 🫶🏼.

Alhamdulillah. Thank you for these words, brother. May Allah shower you and your family with countless blessings. ❤️
Mr. X, you want to say “Don’t take my kindness for weakness”. I’m sorry to hear you experienced that.
Exactly that! Was some years ago, now. We learned a lot from it.☺️

Happened a few years back, this. We’re a few jobs on since then but always good to see how we got where we did. Allah will surely test us all.

As a black person married by a Pakistani I got to being called " Kali " I don't care anymore
You don’t deserve that. I had it a lot as a kid. “Kala bandar” meaning black monkey 🤦🏽♂️

What a horrible lying racist principal . Don't worry, what goes around comes around. Nsjallah you are having a good job now.
Alhamdulillah. She got sacked somewhere down the line 👀
Yes I would definitely say it was to do with your race, religon. But you did good and handle it very professional. 🇬🇧🇯🇲
Thank you, Sister Sybil 🤲🤍
Those lawyers alway get that money 🤣 but its good you fought and won.
Omg well well, sorry to hear about your experience, racism is real.
Love the ending though , allah can make anything easy. Thanks for the reminder 🙏🏾 Alhamdulilah
Alhamdulillah 🤲
Beautiful couple. Marshallah.. MAY Allah swt keep you happy always ameen. 💙

100% you experienced racism.
☝🏾
I LOVE YOU GUYS

We need more men in this world like sufian ya Allah .ALLHUMDULILAH
May Allah increase me and all others in character, strength and iman 🤲
I wish you could teach my grandson
Maybe one day. Praying for blessings and guidance for your family and grandson! 🙏🤲
❤❤❤❤ you guys much.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yeah, sounds like they didnt like you and from what i've seen its because you're a nice guy.
No 💪 today? Or did I miss it..
I went for the long, humble sleeves this week 😂😅
Of course it was due to race but clearly she picked in the wrong person. Hopefully u have stopped them from targeting other people in the future .
Assalam aleikum The X’s ,
Wa-Alaikum-Assalaam 💙
Why don't you have the sister off-screen asking questions?
Racism indeed.
😍
❤️
100%
Amara is stunning! mA
Totally agree with you. Maa shaa Allah!! 😍
Sadly you find this all over England. You should have named and shamed the company and individuals
I want to ask you about Andrew Tate, who, as you know, became a Muslim. He has very crazy opinions about women, to the point of misogyny.😂
That was racism and should not have happened. But i wonder why you choose to live in the UK / western world when in another video you mentioned you dont like the education ststem - but you work as teachers??? And although there is some racism luckily in the UK there are employment laws which is why you and your dad were able to get a payout. if this happened in a muslim country i highly doubt youd feel like you could get yourself justice how you were able to in the UK being a white country. Would they have have laws that respect ethnic minorities? I doubt it
🤦🏽♂️
Are you guys married?
Yes ☺️
I think you should delete this. Luv your guys’ videos ❤❤🌹
It was a violation of your human rights. Discrimination in the workplace. Allah swt Tests those He Loves and will be just in judgement. It all worked out Alhamdulillah 🫶🏼.
