Happy birthday, George. Happy birthday,
sir.
Asalamkum. Greens of peace. R. So,
recently, Muslim fighter Khabib Nagdaf
is being condemned online for refusing
to shake hands with a woman, someone of
the opposite gender. Wow. How is
everything?
How are you guys? Legend here. We
got you, sir. Nice to meet you.
welcome to the show. Apologize. Thank
you so much. And suddenly it's a huge
controversy. People are calling him
uncivilized,
misogynistic, and far worse names. But
let me ask them, what about George
Counley? Did George Counley accept
Islam? Is he an undercover Muslim?
Because he was caught on video not
wanting to shake hands with a woman.
Happy birthday, George. Happy birthday,
sir.
George, happy birthday, man.
George, happy birthday, man. Are we
going to show the same zeal and passion
and outrage against George Clooney? How
long are we in the West going to act as
if this is acceptable? Or do we only go
after and attack people after we confirm
they're Muslim? How about the Jewish
community? Orthodox Jews? They don't
shake hands with members of the opposite
sex.
Are we going to go ahead and condemn
them also with the same energy, zeal,
and passion? How about the Japanese
people? Hey, no.
I am Japanese and I'm not used to
handshakes. Touching skin with someone I
meet for the first time is very
surprising to me. Touching others in
daily life is not natural for me. So
let's uh go ahead and uh condemn
everyone who doesn't conform to our
standard. That makes sense. It's his
religion. Well, so what? It's somebody's
religion. So then it's just excusable if
it's something silly. That's not doesn't
make any sense to me. There are
two groups of people that don't like
touching women. Incelss and religious
extremists. Um, I would say that
refusing to shake a woman's hand is
extreme. I'll give you some more
examples. In Buddhism, especially
amongst monks and nuns, contact with the
opposite gender is strictly avoided. I
mean, even in the west, some people
don't shake hands for hygiene, hygienic
purposes, anxiety, past traumas, or
simply personal space. And during co
when that happened, it literally
normalized avoiding all physical
contact. remember the 3T, 4T, 6T rule.
And it'd probably be these same people
who were wouldn't shake your hand, come
even close to you. They'd probably be 20
ft away. And and nobody had an issue
then. Also, many women today don't want
to be touched by strangers. Plain and
simple. And some men also choose not to
shake hands with women to avoid making
them feel uncomfortable. That's how it
is. Where's the outrage in these cases?
Are you going to have the same zeal and
passion going after George
Clooney the Japanese or the uh the
Jewish people? Are you I mean I'm asking
you or only when they're Muslim it
becomes uh suddenly it's a problem.
Let's go and break this down. The
refusal to shake hands with the opposite
gender. This is something common in many
cultures. It's rooted in respect,
morality and God consciousness and
chastity practiced by people of various
religions, ethnicities and beliefs. But
it's ironic when a Muslim man or woman
follow this, it's all of a sudden
labeled as oppression, extremism,
refusing to shake a woman's hand is
extreme. Misogyny, these are those
double standards and hypocrisy. For
centuries, even in Christianity,
religious women avoided physical contact
with men. They were respected, even
admired for their piety, their
preserving their chastity. But today,
when Muslims uphold that same standard
of
modesty, it's suddenly offensive. It's
called misogyny. It's labeled as
hateful, like they're doing to Khabib
right now for holding his ground,
staying true and dedicated to his
religion, to Islam. Now, let's talk
about what real misogyny looks like. You
want to teach Muslims about respecting
women? Meanwhile, the whole culture has
objectified women, turning them into
products, selling naked bodies and the
majority of advertisement. If you want
to sell something, just put a naked
woman on there. This is how you've
objectified and belittled women in the
culture. At one point in history, it was
debated whether the woman even had a
soul. Blamed a woman, blamed Eve for the
downfall of man. Didn't know if she was
the devil, a goddess, or what. and turn
modesty into a joke while glorifying
over sexualization as empowerment. Let's
look at the hardcore facts. Now look at
Only Fans now hosts
approximately 4 and a half million
content creators and about over
70% are women. The global adult
entertainment industry was valued at 183
billion in 2024 and now it's projected
to reach
275 billion by 2032. In 2023,
32.1 million women in the US had a
mental or substance use disorder. Over
30% of women in the US are on
anti-depressants. Over one in four homes
are fatherless. Among teen girls,
anti-depressant use rose 130%. Is this
real misogyny reducing women to body
parts, Only Fans, adult entertainment,
putting a price on their dignity,
calling it empowerment while their
mental health collapses. And then you
have the audacity to say Islam is the
problem. In Islam, we're taught to
honor, to protect our mothers, wives,
spouses, and preserve the dignity of
women as a divine trust. And our refusal
to shake hands with the opposite gender
is holding on to our dean, our religion,
our God consciousness. It's not about
hate. It's about self-restraint,
discipline, and obeying God. It's not
about superiority. It's about humility
before our creator, God, almighty Allah.
So, let me ask you again. Tell me, is
Islam the problem or is Islam the
solution to all of these social ills?
You mock our values while our society
crumbles from inside. You attack
chastity while American women, I'm I'm
an American, are being sold for
subscriptions. You claim to protect
women, yet glorify the very industries
that are breaking them. We won't
apologize for our dignity, for our
integrity, for our adhering to the
guidelines set by the creator of the
heavens and earth, God almighty, Allah.
Yes, in technology we have definitely
advanced, but morality it's definitely
crumbling and it is something that good
God conscious people, they really
respect about Islam that doesn't bend
and it holds on to these things and
they're looking for them and they've
lost them in Christianity. They've lost
him in many other religions, but Islam
doesn't bend. And this is Khabib showing
that, being an example of that. And if
you're intelligent and you're
open-minded, you'd ask, "What's the
wisdom behind this?" And then things
will be made clear. But if you're just
angry inside, bitter, you got
that dark heart. All that's coming out
is that a projection of all that
darkness that's inside. You got no light
to give. We'll see you next time. Until
