Discussion on Islam and Public Perception
Would you like to see the whole world become Muslim?
Yeah.
That's-
Inshallah.
I, I, I, inshallah. I, I, I love that.
So he's upset about...
What's going on here? Just one moment, sir. Are you parking for the prayer?
Yes.
And you're parking on the sidewalk for the prayer?
I can do.
Why?
Because of prayer. I can do it.
So the NYPD said you can park here on the sidewalk if you're pray-
Of course I park here.
Well, you're making New York a wonderful place
by blocking the sidewalk.
Only for, only for prayer.
Only for prayer.
I, I'm not argue with you. I can pray. For prayer, I can park here.
Wow.
I'm not argue with you.
And who told you that?
Huh?
Who told you?
I'm not talking with you, please. I have no-
Actually, we are
... I have no time for...
We've got two traffic cops in there that are not coming out because they see
us,
'cause they know accountability is right here outside.
They know that you cannot park on the sidewalk just because you're going in to
pray. It's breaking the law. All right.
Hey, pleasure.
Oh, so you all watch the videos. So they got together...
And there's a taxi right here. Why? Because he's praying. I pay my taxes.
I pay your salary, and you guys are all walking away from me.
This is pathetic. You are pathetic. Know that.
When I went to the Jummah prayer last week-
Yes
... the imam said that the whole world is against Islam.
All over the world are against the Muslim today.
You see what happen actually in Michigan. You see what happen in New York.
People actually because they are Muslim, they are against them.
Do you agree that the whole world is against Islam?
Whole world against Islam?
Yeah. Yeah. Do you believe that?
Yeah.
Yes?
Yeah.
Um, so some Islamophobic guy was telling me,
how is the whole world against Islam if-
Okay
... there were 1,200 mosques in America in the
year 2000,
and now there's over 3,000 mosques.
Okay.
So explain that.
Okay.
I have to talk
about what I know.
Yes.
You understand? It's for my religion.
Yes.
I believe my God. If what God says-
Yeah
... the whole world will be Muslim-
Yeah
... I have to believe him.
Would you like to see Mamdani become president?
Why not?
Why not?
Yeah.
Right. Do you think that people that sh- are born outside the United States should
be able to run for president?
No problem.
Yeah.
If I
have this-
Yeah
... um, charisma-
Yeah
... I will.
Yeah.
But I don't have this charisma.
Well, right now on Calci there's a 10% chance
that Mamdani becomes president.
So
maybe he will become president.
That would be great.
Yeah, like 40%.
40% chance?
Yeah.
Actually, it's 10%, but hope-
Yeah, I, I, I hope.
Maybe you, maybe you make it.
Maybe m- ma- maybe 80%. You have to learn more about Islam.
Okay.
Okay?
I, I'm trying.
Yeah, try. That's good. Yeah, that's good advice.
Because I think the whole world's gonna become Muslim. I better learn about it.
Yeah, yeah.
