1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
How important is your religion?

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,000
It's very important to me.

3
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,000
It plays a major part of my life.

4
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,000
I'm Sunni Muslim,

5
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
pray five times a day,

6
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000
you know what I'm saying?

7
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000
I do as much as I can do as far as my religion

8
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
and I rock out, you know?

9
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000
When the whole 9-11 thing happened,

10
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000
and you have a Muslim kind of look to you,

11
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
did you feel any sort of

12
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
people looking at you funny

13
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000
or treating you a certain kind of way during that time?

14
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
I felt it a little bit.

15
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,000
I was very major because I was popping at the time.

16
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,000
A lot of people knew who I was

17
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
so they wasn't really concerned about me trying to blow the plane up

18
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,000
because they knew I got a career.

19
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000
So, you know what I'm saying?

20
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,000
But I definitely felt it a little bit, you know?

21
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,000
How do you really feel about the whole state of affairs right now?

22
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Because you could really,

23
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,000
I really feel like we're having a religious war right now in the world.

24
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
It's not a religious war.

25
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
As far as from my side,

26
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
as far as the religion,

27
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,000
a lot of things going on,

28
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
like the things that's going on in India and everything.

29
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000
And it's my responsibility as a Muslim to let y'all know out there

30
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
that these things are not from Islam.

31
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Like, these things are from people that are extremists

32
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000
and they're interpreting the religion the wrong way

33
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
and they're doing the wrong things.

34
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Like, you're not supposed to kill innocent people.

35
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000
You're not supposed to kill yourself for none of that.

36
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Where they're getting it from is,

37
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,000
in Islam,

38
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
if you're fighting a holy war

39
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,000
and you die for the sake of God,

40
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,000
then you're a martyr.

41
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,000
But the war and the things that they're fighting for

42
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,000
is not a holy war.

43
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Like, you know what I'm saying?

44
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,000
It's crazy.

45
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,000
And it's not from Islam.

46
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Amen.
