## Transcript

[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future) My name is Abdulrahman Muhammad Said.

[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=7) I always say inshallah or God willing, but today, tonight, we can turn that inshallah into a alhamdulillah.

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=17) Okay, you have two ways of looking at this.

[0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=21) You can throw in the towel. You can say, "Our goose is clearly cooked.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=24) The wolves are already in the house. It was a good run."

[0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=27) I don't have that option. I have two young children that I have to somehow raise in this crazy world.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=32) I have a country that has been invaded and overrun and morphed into something that I barely recognize, and I've still gotta figure out what version of it I'm gonna leave to them and what I'm gonna say to them when they ask me one day how hard I worked to give them something worth saving.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=48) And I've gotta cling to the fact that Jesus Christ told me that in this world I would have trouble, but that he has overcome the world.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=54) And that in the face of seemingly overwhelming evil, the scriptures are filled with stories of underdogs whose faith in God Almighty and their willingness to follow his call were the only things they brought to the table,

[1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=66) and he had to do the rest. Because if I don't, if I look at this video and I just throw up my hands and I say, "Clearly, we are screwed," like I see so many demoralized people doing right now, not only am I insulting our ancestors and the people who fought and bled and died to give us this spit of dirt,

[1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=81) but I am abandoning my children and their children to their fate, to this garbage, and I can't do that.

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=87) So I have to fight. I might not win this earthly battle, but I have to fight.

[1:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zpUK9PVY7bWS/en/faith-family-and-the-fight-for-the-future?t=91) So are you with me?
