[mztifah]

[mztifah]

[WicCedCity]

LMAO WTF Mztifah what are you even talking about? I'm not mad. You're just an idiot

[yadgar266]

you mentioned an excellent point about jihad, you are right, you should read about Imam Hussian a.s and look deep into his life and fight for justice.

[p03t913]

are you trying to say if your not muslim than you can't understand what he means because i truly understand what he means and like Talib Kweli "when they say ones right the other's wrong just sounds like game to me" NOW DAT'S RAW

[mujedid2000]

My heart has jumped for joy,this is raw dawg stuff unless your intuned to the truth the meaning of his words are hard to understand by those whom lights have been put out.Allah Hu Akbar

[mujedid2000]

As-Salaam-Alaikum,brother you have brought tears to my eyes.most people have no idea what you speak about because,the light hasn't been turned on in thier heart,is a disease for the truth is what shall set you free.i propose this question to those whom couldnt appreciate al haq.what is it that you hate the speaker, he's only a warner search your hearts and you will find that you no nothing about Amir,you hate truth that spills from his tongue,rightly guided from the creator of all things.

[Jlori88]

blessed!!

[taqwa01]

mashaAllah. jazakumAllah khair ya Amir.

[bzreal247]

Ur very ignorant HuntsUDownbcuzuradumbass....Sa­d that ur stuck in ur trailer park,in the back woods while married 2 ur 1st cousin & If u hate FB so much STAY OFF of it!

[mujedid2000]

to whom ever you are,be careful.Allah protects those whom he loves.Hate him not,your beef is with the creator,so stop being a player hater.

[HuntsUsDownLikeDogs]

Down with the white man.

We will destroy him.

We will overthrow his society.

We will have a revolution.

And he can't stop us because that will be interfering with our rights, and that's not fair.

If he does it again we'll tell our mommies.

[kezzla]

people like you give people like charles manson power. stfu you idiot. we're all human.

[kezzla]

comment for hunstsusdownlikedogs. not amir. amirs cool

[HuntUsDawnLikeDogs]

The point is that many people declare themselves revolutionaries, and then complain about their human rights.

If you champion the violent overthrow of a government, you have to be prepated for the government to come round your house and ask you a few questions.

Are you a revolutionary or not?

Anyway, fuck them all.

Fuck capitalism, fuck Chritianity, and fuck Islam.

Fuck George Bush and fuck all the black nationalists.

And fuck YouTube, it makes me sick.

[desertgreenery]

lol

[desertgreenery]

wait, do u realize what u just said? i had an epiphany when i read the last line of ur comment. "And fuck YouTube it makes me sick." Im prty sure amir sulaiman and most revolutionaries are the same...theyre sick of their situation and where they are, but theyre there nonetheless. I guess that makes u a revolutionary.....except at the end of ur revolution is a void, with nothing of human interest at the end. THats the difference between you and real revolutionaries.

[mujedid2000]

Sick,He's not when will you understand that the revolution that bothers you is the creator bringing about change.Your hate is allah not Amir he's a warner a bringer of the word,not the author.

[unknownjjokarr]

wow the turn the light off thig is cool

[CertifiedGwopBoy]

I dont know if its because hes at a university or what, but he isnt spitting it as passionate as he usually does. Ive never seen this brother this calm before. He usually recite his pieces with anger and rage.

[joannezehtab]

There is a book.. "thief in the night" by William sears.. good to read in reference to what Amir has just said.

[hakeem2006]

this brother is good, i been to one of his shows at UCL University London, and his brilliant, speaks the truth only the truth, full support.

[usmanaman]

Music ruined it all-

Shame really- I really wanted to watch this!!

[usmanaman]

just realised that the music finishes.. :)

[FreeThyMind]

@usmanaman

what are you talking about? the music only lasted for like 15 seconds

[usmanaman]

@FreeThyMind Check my other comment left TWO YEARS AGO

[FreeThyMind]

@usmanaman lol, my bad, I should've realized, youtube comments never show the whole picture untill you click 'see all comments'

[usmanaman]

@FreeThyMind lol .. it's all cool ;-)

[AsmaaJama22]

I wished you camed to calgary .

[blackty00]

When I surrender to the law, When I conform to the law and the legislation which was intended for me that means, THAT's my natural disposition. Therefore i become what! A Conformist, I AM in Order, I AM in Harmony.. And by being in Order, in Harmony the things that am supposed to recieve Comes to me.. SO ITS NATURAL TO BE A MUSLIM.. ITS UNNATURAL NOT TO BE...

[blackty00]

When I surrender to the law, When I conform to the law and the legislation which was intended for me that means, THAT's my natural disposition. Therefore i become what! A Conformist, I AM in Order, I AM in Harmony.. And by being in Order, in Harmony the

[blackty00]

And Last but not least... Let me tell you little somefin about Islam. The word Islam has arrived from the Word 'Sallamah' To be a peace. it also means safety, security. Therefore a Muslim is a person that surrender's to whom? Allah(God). A muslim is a person that submits and obeys the law of whom? Allah(God), and throw this submission obtains peace for themselves. YOU SEE the formula is very simple...

[blackty00]

Diz is the same Person, By da way... And MUSLIMS been faggots and all... NAAH!! Man you got it all TWISTED. Gay, Faggots, Homosexuals, Hoes, Prostitutes, Rapists, Pervets, Child molester's; All these DISCUSTING, AWFUL, HORRIFIC, OUTRAGEOUS acts that seem to be so 'NORMAL' in the western world, it's almost UNHEARD OFF in the Muslim Countries. AND WHY IS THAT??? Becuase of ISlam..

[lmayo003]

it could be that...or it could be that the u.s. is an amalgamation of people, cultures. in the middle east? the vast majority of the middle east is not very diverse, and it's ruled with an iron fist, which you cannot in the u.s. (although they'd like to)

think before you write.

[MoB0005]

And off all those Hundreds who do you think they choose as No. 1...

I dnt want you to guess!! I tell you straight off. The Name is Muhammed, Peace and blessing be with him. And one of them Historians was; Michael J hard. And what did he say? He said, Becuase I'm a christian i tried SO HARD to put Jesus there, but becuase of the critiries set I couldnt.. All of you Muslims who read this, Say; Muhammad Rassululah...

[MoB0005]

Click on the first one. and read about him, read about his life and THEN tell me, if you see him the same way. I dnt knw whether you knw about it, but there was a survey that took place few years back. They gathered the five biggest Historians in this so called 'Computer Age'. they wanted to find out the Most Influential People in History of Mankind. They made a list containing the 100 most influential peole in history and they sat diffirent critiries to find out which one was No.1.

[MoB0005]

But i guess you too ignorant 2 knw that...

And Muhammed Peace and blessings over him, what eva your lil ignorant, oblivious, sadistic mind puts him out to be.. He's weeey beyond that... And i clearly dnt need to defend him, 'CUZ tha statistics kinda like SPEAK 4 THEM SELVES.. I can see that you have no knowledge about him what so eva AND i would STRONGLY reccomend 4 you 2 go in to google and and type the name Muhammed. and see hw many hits you get.

[xoxo0092004]

Amazing! I love watching you speak with such honesty. You are so inspiring for so many Muslims. Thank you and may Allah (SWT) bless you.

[Nemo251120]

1st dere is no point arguen wit a fool b/c da more pugsrule speaks he sounds ignorant so if u argue with a fool you just end up lookin like a fool allah bless amir he is a great poet and inspires alot of ppl mashallah and if u think islam is a cult well you need help buddy i am not gonna swear or w/e b/c i am a muslim and i am peaceful every releigon has good and bad ppl u cant judge a whole releigon based on a phew pplz actions thats jus ignorant u need to stop watchin CNN and do some research

[hbooboo]

Thats why they call HIm the ALL WISE because he knew this kind of evil will come to us just like in the chat room. so dont stoop to thier level jus say peace and be done with it. Who will they insult if no one will answer them? thats how evilworks they win if you respond with anger. Allah said the strongest of men is not the one with strength but the one who restrains himself during anger.

[hbooboo]

i know you get angry for the ignorance and evil in the chat room but Allah says say peace when an ignorant person speaks to u about evil.

[RenaissanceRoss]

ooh i like that

[ShottyChampion]

one word cunt

[jamalddo4]

koooooooooool

[12345ban]

This brother is very gooooooooood. the words are so powerful.

[12345ban]

pugsrule22: And so you now, it is more White men that are pedophile in the world. and men of the lives in the west. so go fuck your self you fucking inbreed.

[Rasti87]

You talk about spelling, but in your own comment you spell prophet as "prophit". Furthermore, there are some grammatical errors, such as "love" instead of loves. Also, you should write "up their asses". and also, what you "stand for", not just stand alone. By the way, people listen to anger in voices, they don't look at it. Oh and I almost forgot, go marry your sister-aunt-cousin whitetrash piece of shit

[pugsrule22]

I am an Atheist. I don't believe in any of that bull shit. You are a lost soul searching to belong to something. One day you will know it's just a cult that suppresses women around the world and encourages African Americans to behave self righteous indignant manner in the USA. I've lived in Islamic societies. Have you? I know of what I speak bro. This negro talking on this video is full of indignant shit.

[Rasti87]

I too am an atheist, and have lived in Islamic societies. However, I know better than to think that I am better than anyone else, or that every member of a religion behave a certain way. By your reasoning Christianity is a religion that suppresses human beings since the Ku Klux Klan call themselves Christian. I do believe that man created God out of ignorance and fear, and that religion does not belong in modern society, but I let people live by their own customs and their own beliefs

[NaseerHammed]

You're something that I haven't ran into on line often, a mature atheist...I still think you're going to hell but hey if I'm wrong then it's really no big deal...that was suppose to be funny but honestly You're cool

[pugsrule22]

Did you see what NaseerHammed wrote? And for you, by writing what you wrote you think you are better than I because of my dislike for the Islamic cult. It's a dangerous cult.... I am a home owner and don't want that shit in my backyard (yes, that is my FEAR - I have fears now because of what I see what is happening around me). I used to be VERY TOLERANT... I am not very tolerant anymore. I don't want to drive down the street and see that suppression and crazy cult "in my back yard".

[NaseerHammed]

Hy whacko, Jews have been doing that pretty much since biblical times, Christian crusader did it during crusade, America Kills for the love of wealth, So is to be Willing to kill because of Faith is wrong? Wasn't America found on Faith? Wasn't the civil war fought on beliefs. I don't believe in killing period but others would regardless of belief.

Don't be hypocritcal. There's murderers in all faiths and ideology

[cnoormaninct]

You call islam a cult but the religion is older than the christian religion. Think of all of the crusades, lynchings and witch hunts that were carried out by these socalled children of christ. My view is believe what you believe but don't judge anyone because it is not your place. Only god can judge and for you to put yourself in the place of god in any religion it is a sin and all sins are the same in the eyes of god.

[pugsrule22]

I am an atheist loser. This nigger on this You tube clip is lost, angry, and clinging to the most fucked up cult in the world. He has no clue what he is really up against. I've lived in these Islamic "societies" and man, they are way backwards and way fucked up. It's just a cult. Check your facts. Islam came after Christianity. About 600 year after. Both are socially constructed cults.

[cnoormaninct]

muslims have been around before christ. when was christianity created? exactly. There is only one god and no religion will dispute that belief the only difference is the profits in each. You are an attention seeker I can only hope you find it before you need to have people look at you gets you killed. I am very anti religion but what people choose to believe is there business (judge not lest ye be judged)

[pugsrule22]

You are funny. You have no idea what these idiots are doing to societies. I've lived in the Middle East. I know of what I speak. Oh, and it's funny how you mention kill. You are a fanatic! Again, you are wrong about Islam. It was a cult that was formed after Christianity. I too am an athiest and don't believe any of that cult crap. But I will judge it. It's full of shit.

[NaseerHammed]

You're funny. You never lived in the middle east, you're liar. Where did you live?

[pugsrule22]

Kuwait. And it sucked!!!

[NaseerHammed]

islam has been around forever, all of the profits were muslims (one who submits to the will of God). Islam (submission to the will of God) is ageless. The western world came to recognize it as that in the year of 614 A.D.E., but the Submission to the will has always been around (Islam). Athiesm is the newest cult...and would call him a nigger to his face? Would you call Farrakhan a nigger at the next million man march reunion?

[MoB0005]

Could only be a white person writing this. Well if you looking 4 someone to debate with you or curse at you, well sorry dat aint gonna happened brah! What am gonna do thou is to give ur lil ignorant mind something to reflect upon. Statistics that might shed sum light to your way. First of all, Islam ain't fucked up - 'Cuz if it were, 1.4Billion people all around the world wouldnt say PROUDLY We are muslims. that is; 1 out of every 5 people around da globe is a Muslim.

[ghettogurl99]

mashallah brother ur words are deep man

may allah bless u

tc salamz

[talib1387]

Someone forgot their thorazine today.

[12345ban]

pugsrule22:1 of all islam is religion.you stupid ass craker.

[pugsrule22]

Islam is the MOST fucked up CULT in the world - wake up niggah!

[NaseerHammed]

You're funny. Like the tiger w/ the Shits that wants to attack but every step it shits on it self...almost like how you attack this brother but your ignorance only pours out w/ each step. Any way christianity is the wierdest cult that has screwed up the world...period

[pugsrule22]

I am an Atheist. I don't believe in any of that bull shit. However, Islam is the most fucked up cult in the world, Muslims are ugly mother fuckers, and your Mohammed buddy was a cock sucking pedophile who loved to give it and take it up the ass. You are a lost soul searching to belong to something. One day you will know it's just a cult of aggression.

[NaseerHammed]

actually ppl like you don't understand how deep ppl love a man they never met because of his sacrafice. As muslims we love Muhammad to the point where most of us would kill because of anyone insulting him, but you have no true concept of love or maturity but I'm done writing you. If you were a mature atheist it would even be worthwile but you're ignorant.

[pugsrule22]

See - you even said it - you would KILL because of anyone insulting that dirty pedophile.- that's why I know you belong to the most FUCKED up CULT in the WORLD!!! Idiot!

[aishadk]

May ALLAH have mercy on your ignorant & uneducated soul.. You judge Brother Amir of anger while your comment is filled with anger and hate.. Where did you go wrong in life? Subhan ALLAH & Brother AMIR you make a great work in the name of ALLAH, keep it up brother.. We are many who admire you.. MashAllah
