 All right guys, welcome back to the channel if you're new Manus Bobby guys Recently I watched a movie about Malcolm X with Danzel Washington Then I realized that I never reacted to him today We're gonna watch Malcolm X letter from Hajj I personally know many people that reverted to Islam because of Malcolm X So it is about time to finally react to him that being said guys as always if you enjoy the content Leave me a thumbs up subscribe to the channel If you haven't already and check out the links in the description box. We have brand new merch Thank you so much for your ongoing support guys with no further ado. Let's have a look Never have I witnessed such sincere hospitality and overwhelming spirit of true brotherhood as it is practiced by the people of all colors and races here in the ancient holy land The home of Abraham and all the other prophets of the holy scriptures for the past week I have been utterly speechless and spellbound by the graciousness I see displayed all around me by people of all colors I have been blessed to visit the holy city of Mecca It is very important to know that Malcolm X coming from a Christian background first Converted to the nation of Islam, which was a black nationalistic movement. It was based upon the Koran However, it was absolutely misconstrued and Allah ultimately was a black man Astaghfirullah back in those days before the internet before social media It was of course hard to come by authentic information and this is why in prison Malcolm X discovered the nation of Islam And started practicing that however, this is how he saw Islam He believed there is a black man's religion Hence it came to his surprise when he saw all the races in Mecca I have made my seven circuits around the Kaaba led by a young Tawaf named Muhammad I drank water from the well of Zamzam. I ran seven times back and forth between the hills of Manasaffa and Marwa I have prayed in the ancient city of Mina and I have prayed on Man-Arafa There were tens of thousands of pilgrims from all over the world They were of all colors from blue-eyed blondes to black-skinned Africans But we were all participating in the same ritual Displaying a spirit of unity and brotherhood that my experiences in America had led me to believe never could exist between the white and the non-white This is so important to mention man because nowadays yet again through the internet through social media We have this depiction of racism that comes from the states This is not the racism that we experienced anywhere else in the world this whole narrative about blacks versus whites Etc. Etc. You name it. We never had that in Europe for example So now we see in Europe and countries such as Germany or France that certain black people take upon that American Nationalistic idea of racism even though there was no segregation in Germany or in France There was no opposition to the black people in those countries My wife is from Senegal and she did not grow up with Hollywood movies She knows very little about those racial conflicts in America and therefore once we started watching movies about the subject in America She was shocked. She couldn't even believe that there was such Attention because she did not experience that racism in Senegal She was going to an international school and they had kids from all over the world She never experienced any white on black racism or vice versa Mentioning all of this. I don't want to undermine what happened in America However, I want to make very clear that this is an American position and Malcolm X said it himself It was this American view that he had and he projected it on to the world But if you look at the world, especially if you look at Islam brotherhood is possible America needs to understand Islam Because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem Exactly right. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world I have met, talked to and even eaten with people who in America would have been considered white But the white attitude was removed from their minds by the religion of Islam I have never before seen sincere and true brotherhood practiced by all colors together Irrespective of their color. And yet again, this is this American position the white attitude We would rather say it is the Western attitude You may be shocked by these words coming from me But on this pilgrimage what I have seen and experienced has forced me to rearrange Much of my thought patterns previously held And to toss aside some of my previous conclusions This was not too difficult for me Despite my firm convictions I have always been a man who tries to face facts And to accept the reality of life As new experience and new knowledge unfolds in I have always kept an open mind Which is necessary to the flexibility That must go hand in hand with every form of intelligence Search for truth During the past 11 days here in the Muslim world I have eaten from the same plate Drunk from the same glass and slept on the same bed Or on the same rug While praying to the same God with fellow Muslims Whose eyes were the bluest of blue Whose hair was the blondest of blonde And whose skin was the whitest of white And in the words and in the actions It's quite interesting he says himself That you wouldn't expect this from him Because we have to point out that Malcolm X Back then was a racist It's not only white people that can be racist No, he was a black racist He was even advocating for segregation He wanted blacks to live in communities And white people to live in other communities He wanted that separation Moreover they called the white man the white devil The deeds of the white Muslims I felt the same sincerity that I felt Among the black African Muslims Of Nigeria, Sudan and Ghana Islam changes heart They were truly all the same brothers Because their belief in one God Had removed the white from their minds The white from their behavior And the white from their attitude Hold up here If you say that their whiteness Was removed from their attitude Then you would have to admit That your blackness was removed as well The fromness that perhaps If white Americans could accept The oneness of God Then perhaps too they could accept In reality the oneness of man And cease to measure and hinder And harm others in terms of Their differences in color With racism plaguing America Like an incurable cancer The so-called Christian white American heart Should be more receptive to a proven solution To such a destructive problem Perhaps it could be in time to save America From imminent disaster The same destruction brought upon Germany By racism that eventually destroyed The Germans themselves Each hour here in the Holy... Yeah, okay, how do I say this Without getting deleted by YouTube? So first and foremost Malcolm X Already passed away So we cannot address him directly here Nevertheless, the statements that he makes Can be inverted right away He speaks over and over again About the racism of the white man Against the blacks As I said previously He called the white man white devil So the racism came from both ends And therefore whilst talking about Islam To only address the white people And tell them that if they would Adapt Islam then the racism would be removed How about the black community? You see nowadays as well So much hate within the black community Against white people It goes so far that they even say That this is not even racism, right? Racism must be something systematic For it to be racism That is of course false And moreover there is nothing That would be considered racist whatsoever But nevertheless if you speak about racism White people can hate black people And black people can hate white people And Chinese people can hate black people As well, it goes into all directions It's not that only white people Are racist and therefore I understand his motivation here I understand his background of course But nevertheless it is not fair To only address the white people And tell them that they will be saved From their own racism Islam came for all people And does not distinguish between race And enables me to have greater Spiritual insight into what is happening In America between black and white The American Negro Can never be blamed for his racial animosities Very often And only react to 400 years of the Conscious racism of the American whites But as racism leads America up the suicide path I do believe from the experiences That I've had with them The younger generation in the colleges And universities will see the handwriting On the walls and many of them will turn To the spiritual path of truth The only way left to America To ward off the disasters that racism Inevitably must lead to Never have I been So highly honored Never have I been made to feel more Humble and unworthy Who would believe the blessings that have been Heaped upon an American Negro A few nights ago I would be called in America a white man A united nation's diplomat An ambassador A companion of kings Gave me his hotel suite His bed Never would I have even thought of dreaming That I would ever be the recipient of such honors Honors that in America Would have been bestowed upon a king Not a Negro All praises due to Allah The lord of the worlds Sincerely All right That's it for today's video As he said in the end and I'm paraphrasing Here the black man cannot be blamed For his animosity Against the white man And I strongly disagree With that we all Have to deal with the hatred In our heart by ourselves Otherwise it's just a cop-out Otherwise it's an easy way out Yes it is true there was slavery Yes it is true your answers have been Enslaved But if I would always look back What has happened to my ancestors I am a slav The name itself tells you everything you need to know This word originally is from the Latin word Sclavo Slave My ancestors have been enslaved throughout Europe And beyond Yes we were even named slaves To this very day the slavs Our origins couldn't be any clearer We were slaves and now what My ancestors Moreover if you look into the Balkan We were occupied for 500 years By the caliphate, by the Ottoman empire And my ancestors And my parents and my grandparents Everybody told me that the Turks The Muslims were our enemies And I have to hate them And I did as a teenager I hated the Muslims, I hated the Turks I hated the Albanians That was the reality But at some point I had to wake up With in me But here he had this beautiful Spiritual experience in Mecca And his takeaway point on the surface Is amazing of course He understands that we are all brothers and sisters He understands that we can be one people Under one god But still he holds the racism within His heart and says The negro cannot be blamed for his animosity Of course you can The past is the past and the present is the present That is a loser's attitude To refuse to be a loser As I said, if I would have accepted the narrative And I would have accepted that hatred in myself It would have eaten me alive And I would sit around here now In my thirties Still hating everybody, blaming everybody And I wouldn't even have found Islam That is the greatest gift And yet again, yes I do understand the background that he is coming from And therefore again, yes I do understand that he would talk about Those subjects addressing his Fellow blacks But Islam is not about skin color It's not about nationality All of this has to be destroyed And diminished The first thing that you are Under god is a Muslim Somebody that submits his will To god You are a believer that comes first And I see that he had a glimpse Of it riding in his letter I saw that he had a glimpse of it In Mecca As believers it should be crystal clear That we are not taking our skin with us Into the afterlife Our bodies go into the soil It does not matter If you are black If you are yellow or red It does not matter whatsoever From Islam we know That we are only better by Piety That's it for today's video If you liked it, leave a thumbs up If you haven't subscribed already, please do so All the links are in the description box below Thank you so much for your ongoing support guys And as always may god bless you all Much love and peace
