00:00What's 30 times 30?

00:03He says, 30.

00:04So of course, Alaska stood out of his mind.

00:07Fool.

00:08Say something with a 9 in it, you know.

00:12It's human nature to follow the crowd.

00:16A man stands up

00:19that everyone knows is the most honest they've ever seen.

00:23And says,

00:25I received news from Allah from above seven skies.

00:31Who's gonna believe him?

00:33What's happened in this room?

00:35And then, out of those that believe him,

00:38who's gonna have the guts to admit it?

00:42They once pulled off a psychology exam

00:45about human nature to follow the crowd.

00:48They brought in a hundred people.

00:50They told them, you have a math exam tomorrow.

00:53But in reality, they were all specimens.

00:55They're just testing them, thinking they're taking a math exam.

00:59And they called up the night before 99 of them.

01:04And told them, listen,

01:05no matter what happens, just say the answer is 30.

01:10And one guy is left out.

01:12Intentionally, of course.

01:14The next day, they sent them an auditorium.

01:16They asked the first guy,

01:19and leave the one that was left out for last.

01:21What's 30 times 30?

01:24He says, 30.

01:25So, of course, Alaska stood out of his mind.

01:28Fool.

01:29Say something with a nine in it, you know.

01:31They go to the second guy.

01:32What's 30 times 30?

01:34It's 30.

01:36This guy's insane.

01:37These guys didn't go to school.

01:39The third guy, what's 30 times 30?

01:4030.

01:42The 49th guy, what's 30 times 30?

01:4430.

01:45The 99th guy, what's 30 times 30?

01:4730.

01:49They get to the 100th guy.

01:52They ask him, what's 30 times 30?

01:53What do you think he said?

01:5430.

01:56Even though he's so sure of the answer,

01:59how can it be that everybody's wrong and I'm right?

02:02That's it.

02:04Now imagine that with the sahaba,

02:06the whole world is against you and not in a math problem.

02:09If you oppose, there's a knife at your neck.

02:13That's the difficulty of it.

02:15Islam began as a stranger.

02:18And it shall return to being a stranger

02:21just as it began.

02:24Look nowadays.

02:26Turn on any channel.

02:27It's no more news.

02:29It's just about the Muslims.

02:30All about the Muslims.

02:34Things that normally would not be worth mentioning.

02:37They're top headlines now.

02:39You guys remember a few years ago,

02:42the teddy bear in Sudan

02:45that was named what?

02:47Muhammad, right?

02:49So they want to revoke the guy's citizenship.

02:51At least, you know.

02:53Throw him off the country.

02:54The whole world stood up and refused to sit down.

02:56About a teddy bear?

02:57About one guy's citizenship?

02:59How many people are killed from drunk driving in America?

03:02Every day or every year?

03:06There's nothing else.

03:07Just about the Muslims.

03:10Hijab.

03:11Did she complain? She didn't complain.

03:13You're complaining on her behalf.

03:14Who said she's oppressed in hijab?

03:16That's all there is on the news.

03:17So the Muslims, watch out.

03:19They have a concept called jihad.

03:21Let's say we have a concept called jihad.

03:24Where are Muslims?

03:26Invading and conquering and doing all these things now.

03:29We're the ones in all of our countries

03:31being attacked within our homes.

03:34What kind of power do we possess?

03:36But the point is, it's about the Muslims.

03:40Now we always feel like we're on the defensive.

03:42And the psychology of a person changes.

03:45Strangers.
