Mufti shows screenshots, recently published on Facebook by another preacher, that Mufti presents as showing who passed the emails on, and mocks the description of a preacher as one of the UK's finest academics.

[2:30:03] Who's the missing link? So who leaked the emails? Who was leaking the emails? Years passed by. Nobody's so sure who leaked the email.

[2:30:30] Allah. Allah. Allah. It appears. It appears. [screaming] It appears. Evil. It's none other. [laughter] in the background. It's Gangotilli.

[2:30:55] Gangotilli was That's him sharing the email [laughter] with a small D. This is with a small D. This one say who's giving it to the other capital D. Daw man with a big D. Okay, [laughter] it transpires people that behind all these D's was Gangu Daily [laughter] with the big G.

[2:31:26] This one. This one. So, it now appears, you see. Oh, no. All right. No, that's [laughter] wrong one there. Right. We've got his uh Let me just bring up his emails. So it's been recently uh Sheh Ismael Patel he revealed he revealed how many brothers wives.

[2:31:53] So we've got this uh brothers have more than wife not one brother said [laughter] what's going on there. So, let me Can you see these? This right here is the transcript to the emails people that you can see that are on Ismael Patel's uh Facebook page where he's showing the emails between him.

[2:32:22] He's finally only revealed them this week where he's speaking back and forth to Ganguti and he's kind of apologizing but at the same time saying I was in touch with a really big u this is another one where he's saying I was in touch with a really this academic one of UK's finest academics and guess who this academic is Because at this stage you're probably thinking who is this uh academic [laughter] [gasps] academic that he's speaking about is

[2:33:01] Abdul Rahman Hassan [laughter] [laughter] Abdul Rahman Hassan was this great academic so he was sharing them with him. As you can see, here is part of an email that once again I do apologize to you for the mess.

[2:34:50] [laughter] You naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty naughty. So all this fitna all this drama come on like think about it. We're thinking you know Kadi has really dug such a deep hole that a portion of the ummah has drowned. [laughter]

[2:35:16] That's we hear reports people have apostasized. They've had doubts in Islam. They've, you know, they've done all of this. Who was behind this? I would never have thought it was our very own our very own. Oh my god. Honestly, I I I I'm lost for words.

[2:35:42] I'm at a loss for words here. This whole fitna was created by this Wahhabi. [laughter] this. What the hell was he trying to do? He was trying to save the ummah by exposing emails to Da Man because Dawan's friend is one of the best academics in the UK.

[2:36:09] It's like mate do you understand the definition of academic def [laughter] calling Abdul Rahman Hassan who I'm sure is very intell he may be very clever being very clever in what you do learning certain things selfie books and doing these things does not make you an academic that's like calling Mullah Omar the greatest hippie [laughter]

[2:36:37] it this is no link I mean, this just, you know, it's like or calling Donald Trump the greatest feminist. I mean, this just does not [laughter] it does not add up. So, yeah. So, I was like, whoa. Oh my god. I was like, [laughter] [gasps] so yeah, I had to do some of those to just think to get over this, man.

[2:37:31] Obviously look at this leak from Ganguti was enough to drown Yaser Khadi [laughter] and with him with Yasar Khadi trying to somehow paddle through the situation. Uh he managed to drown [laughter] a bunch of other people with him as well because of his magnificent explanation which was uh so terrific.

[2:37:56] [laughter and gasps] So this is like wow. Oh man. This is just I honestly I just I did not see this coming. So I had to share that with you guys. I felt wo that is uh something guys. Let's wrap this up. We've been going on. Oh my god. It's uh it's coming nearing. There was a little something. I'll share this with you very quickly. I don't know if you've seen this. I you know come on.

[2:38:22] This was to do with molana jab. I'll give you a little extended on the masala. I thought this isn't I think look Molana Tariq J is a very a genuinely a nice guy. He has in the past preached some weird stuff and I don't support that but I do think he's one of the few scholars who's tried to go cross sectarian and unite you know spoken for unity but there was this so they c got a video of him shaking hands with a girl and then they've put his speech conde speaking about morality [laughter]
