KhalifahKlothing's statement regarding the matter:

"as-salaamu 'alaikum

Firstly, Wallahi I have no ill feelings towards the brothers that filed that copyright claims. I'm sure if they knew that it would lead to this they would not have gone forward with it. I am disappointed that none of the brothers ever messaged me regarding the videos before they went ahead and contacted YouTube.

Now, I have never claimed that all Islamic material (DVDs, CDs) should be available for free. I tried to be careful enough and didn't upload material that wasn't already available for free online, so I'm shocked when brothers accuse us of stealing and piracy.

These are the videos in question:

1. "Interview with Belal Muslim -- The Deen Show" -- Brother Eddie used footage -- only seconds if I'm not mistaken -- from YouTube of brother Belal's video which was produced by "Life of this World Media". Now I'm not denying that they own that footage, but please don't accuse us of doing dawah through theft when we never received any warnings or complains or refused to comply with your demands.

2. "Covenant with Allah -- Nouman Ali Khan" -- A really good lecture by Ustadh Nouman which I saw on Salam Studios' channel with very few views, so I decided to give it more exposure by mirroring it, and placing a link to their website (Salam Studios) the time it was uploaded. The only other video by them was "Islamophobia -- Nouman Ali Khan" which was very necessary and popular, which also had a link back to their website, since the time it was uploaded. I was naive enough to assume they would not mind if this material was shared with a much larger audience since they had contacted me before regarding posting other lectures they recorded (Tafseer Sessions). I received no warnings or any messages from them. Again, I have no ill feeling towards the brother and he was very cooperative when I contacted him through a mutual friend regarding retracting the claim, and he did so right away.

3. "Judgement Day -- Khalid Yasin" -- This was the only Khalid Yasin lecture on the channel even though there are a ton of DVDs by him out there. And the very reason why I never uploaded anything by him is because he does not allow his DVDs to be put up for free online. The reason why this was uploaded is because it was recorded and edited by a friend of ours from 'Ahlussunnah Productions' circa 2004 and it was distributed and sold by them. At that time Khalid Yasin made no contract with them, and did not prohibit them from recording and distributing the lecture. Some time after that Khalid Yasin started making contracts with those who recorded his lectures and granted them specific permissions. "Challenge Your Soul Media" assumed that this was most likely a lecture that fell under a contract, and went ahead and filed a copyright claim shorty after it was uploaded. Again, without contacting us. They cooperated and retracted their claim, and said they would not be able to message every single channel who uploads their material, because there are hundreds every week.

Alhamdulilah the brothers have been cooperative, and have all retracted their claims by contact you tube. I'm not sure how long this will take to process, just make du'a that Allah makes us sincere and keeps us away from violating other peoples rights. May Allah forgive us all and guide the channel to that which is pleasing to Him."

I wish, we all Muslims should launch Islamictube where we could delete accounts of these kaafirs...

[neverislove]

WHY would someone claim copyright on dawah material??!! Or at least contact the Khalifa bro before contacting youtube about it! Are you doing your work for Allah or your personal interest!

website "Islam-2012-newworldorder" In a global call for the rally and the rallying of all true Muslims around the world in the midst of globalization of Satanist, so as to recapture Jerusalem under muslim control as undivided capital of the future Theocratic Muslim Khilafah, and rebuild the Islamic Khilafah (not secular and non-monarchical) which is certainly not a utopia but a prophecy foretold by the last Prophet Muhammad (saaws).

@JMAsfx Like all prophets in Islam, Jesus is considered to have been a Muslim (one who submits to the will of God), as he preached that his followers should adopt the "straight path" as commanded by God. The Qur'an indicates that Jesus will deny having ever claimed divinity at the Last Judgment, and God will vindicate him.The Qur'an emphasizes that Jesus was a mortal human being who, like all other prophets, had been divinely chosen to spread God's message.
