okay so brothers precisely at precisely 1807 right so so I thought okay anyway whether it's weeks or months or whatever she's recently taken over or she's kind of downgraded from the saying look up you know I don't feel it so much of a big deal I'll wear it sometimes won't wear it sometimes and I know there's been a huge uproar and I've read some of the things on newsfeed and people really kind of boy as she I will be surprised if she perhaps leaves Islam at some
point because the amount of hate that she has got from people now I can't I'm just trying to to get into the minds of people I can understand from one perspective that because she rose on the back of hijab like she rose to fame her claim to fame was as a hijab' not just as a muslim opinion is like not just you know i'm a muslim was an opinion i like to talk on matters so you know come listen to me i'm gonna talk on politics or you know whatever international affairs i'm gonna talk on money i'm gonna talk about
anything she my understanding is rose on her soul kind of foundation was the hijab by doing so she kind of accrued a huge following i believe i don't know what a following but i believe its massive it was massive anyway to which she kind of accessed a huge amount of opportunities as well I'm sure in terms of revenue in terms of money obviously even YouTube I'm sure she must make a hell of a lot of money through stuff like YouTube for stuff like that now after several years I don't know how many years but whatever I think is about seven years or something whatever but
after so many years she has kind of said well I don't think that hijab is that important I'm taking it off in and of itself that opinions I think fine I mean I think that's an opinion amongst opinions whatever we can discuss that but I think because her claim to fame was about hijab obviously all these hijabis and all her followers who mainly were heater B's and the brother here and baby of course who's who's a B who's on there ZB x o acre just to kind of feminized the and one of
those cute emojis at the end that thing is now her followers feel betrayed so they feel that she how can she do this because she has through this whole thing and okay fair enough she's given us inspiration she's given us courage but she on the back of each other owes to this strength or power now she's kind of like abandoned hijab once she's got thee so now that you've become a celebrity well now you can just talk on opinions but so I can kind of understand why some people feel the way they do
so that's but then to kind of like from my understanding she's been proper hunted and they've been you know you this this these you burn in hell and blah blah blah kaffir and then all these kind of things and this is once again the the kind of venom that we find amongst unfortunately religious people and so it becomes a very kind of like a dark cult so I think that kind of behavior is unacceptable I think those Muslim women that do that very you know that's that much kudos and respect to them for that but those who
don't and if they change their opinion I suppose that is generally speaking it's just life and not whether your own understanding throughout life will develop you made today feel something is right and maybe later on you may feel at some point you know what I did argue for it back then but now I kind of feel that it's not the main thing was something else like I just be nailed for this argument so this person I knew said you know he would forty eight miles a woman could not go up more than 48 miles unaccompanied and he would impose that on his wife as in his wife obviously was
of that opinion as well thin because she and I believe personally she was just brainwashed into it but nevertheless this opinion so what would happen is he would have to pick his wife up from from ackerman but which city was let's say it was to Birmingham but he would go halfway and she would go half way and then you pick her up from there because she wasn't allowed to drive the whole way home and they were they were very educated people so I was Wow but then what was more interesting was during our getting to know each other and chatting and learning he he had changed his
opinion and said well you know now I've come to realize that that doesn't actually make any sense it doesn't need to be 48 miles that said but I fought for it for so long and hard I'm just gonna go with it because now to go against the fight would look embarrassing I think that's wrong and we should be reminded by save now Omar of the allahu anhu said that when he got into an argument which not an argument but in a disputed matter which he had for long stood by he said that look ro jorala ha her domina tamati fell bottom it is better that we turn back to the truth
Rozlyn archer sorry that was the interim bollywood music by next time suspenseful music that one didn't quite cut it so rather than we should turn back to the Huq rather than continue with falsehood no matter how long we feel but that's my thoughts
