because it's amazing how Saudi has this ability to just dictate the Islamic terms and yet it has no problem in bombarding Yemen or things like this or just doing is okay MBS whose notorious on human rights but he has given some freedoms to women and of course Nicki Minaj with her recent concert which I'm just confused you see because I wanted to sign up for that to attend but I wasn't sure where I need to tie the Iran
from should I wear it from Birmingham going out or should I should we just turn up with the lower part of the Iran just the sarong right so I mean yes so I even though NBS is doing certain things which I do agree with I actually like the fact that he's giving a lot more rights to women and stuff like this but he is notorious on human rights and
Saudi is the major exporter of things like radical thought all radically radically sympathized thought so the thought that of many Muslims who are sympathetic to radicals stems from the funding from Saudi kind of organizations and so I'm not sure MBS said he was gonna curb that in and make sure he controls this kind of export of Wahhabism and stuff like this I don't know if that's happening but I haven't been following it that closely but it would be interesting him and Mark is in the house a long satella Nathan was sat on chef
Anna any joke on Manoj that's what I'm saying I mean the the man Hajj they were you know that they were probably confused it's like they said let's hold a conference we need somebody who's on the Manoj the Manoj and it was probably a communication error so somebody thought oh minaj nicki me know it oh okay no problem this one no problem so there you go before you know it it was just a communication error error they
wanted somebody on the min Hajj the hawk we want on the hawk people on the hop so Hajj today is Raj is ridiculously priced I don't know how so many people people do afford it though people go on luxurious packages I'm not condemning the luxury that people take but I'm just saying that I do feel that Hajj is massively it's it's a business if we're
gonna be honest Hajj is a business so is Umrah but Hajj especially and it's a lucrative one so I think many reforms need to be made to do with Hajj to do with other things Saudi Saudi doesn't really care about anything it's just like I don't give a damn and they need to make certain reforms I'm so disappointed that they don't allow any archaeological support to help Muslims with the archaeology of Islam
because today many people many non-muslims have questioned the authenticity of Islam saying that there is no archaeological findings we can't do this we can't do that why is Saudi not allowing them or allowing they can use Muslims but archeological findings I'm disappointed in I'm seriously seriously disappointed it's like this are not nice
