Islam ENSLAVED,TORTURED&MADE EUNUCHS of black people 900yrs before the Trans Atlantic slave trade and its still going on today ESPECIALLY in Africa
Didn’t need the music
I really hate the way the media represents Islam
First of all: “The media” is not an entity.
It goes without saying that fundamentalists do give arsenal to the likes of those epitomised by 'Clit Eastward' maven of Hollywood( the tentpole, feature-film maestro) - of course it's ludicrously, maliciously, and viciously exaggeration.
Doesn't that away from the fact that wild Philosophical distinction is there.
But blm ye sure blacks are oppressed all the schools talk about how we should have simp for blacks meanwhile police are killing white but it doesn’t show that in the news and there is another group that gets so much support and most whites simp for them and most whites are patriotic of America shame on all those people left and right are made to divide people over little things instead of turning on the goverment

Quran chapter verse 177
Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for freeing slaves; [and who] establishes prayer and gives zakāh; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.

As a white 16 year old, it is really interesting to see the flip-side of the coin. I am never one for investigating politics, but it is really eye opening to see what people of the Muslim faith have to go through on a day to day basis. Riz has always been an inspiration to me since I saw him in Nightcrawler, and I do believe that what he is doing is truly using his platform and his voice for good. It is only when we talk about subjects that we can change them, so here's to a better future. 🧡
He's a stellar actor, really inspiring.

Once met Riz and he was so humble and kind. Stellar guy.
In the third season of the Daredevil, Jay Ali plays the FBI Agent Nadeem, and there's no reference to his race and religion. He's such a well rounded and complex character and is so refreshing to watch. Jay Ali nails that character.
i loved that character so much

A rarity
big up riz ahmed, he's always there talking about muslim rep on the screen 100%
Seeing Lady Parts in the thumbnail next to "bad muslim representation" I knew something was fishy. So glad I clicked and watched though. Lady Parts was a really important aspect of my journey in conveting to islam simply by showing realistic portrayls of myslim women, and how as muslims we dont have to be perfect. I'm really happy to see that kind of messaging being uplifted here.
girl SAME
I am not Muslim but I loved it. Downloaded the songs even. I saw myself in all the characters. A very well done and important series. Blessings
Very brave of Riz Ahmed to be in Hollywood to be saying SUCH things in public.
This is so refreshing to watch. And to have someone touch on a lot of these pressing subject matters makes me relieved that the right narrative is being put out into the world and especially through the words of someone as influential, respectful and applaudable as Rizwan.
Sammme😂 I pretty much skipped to just that part just to make sure😂
R you serious 🧐 or you’re being hysterical?
Because this dude reacted according to westerners ways and not Muslims
He like the fact that a niqabi women was smoking listening to music and being out there. Which is a contradiction
But he doesn’t like how they showed a Muslim women fighting an invading enemy in their homeland?
R u guys serious?
@@Abdallah_79916 Just because Islam says so doesn't mean everyone is doing exactly that...I know plenty of guys that are pious, go to jummah, read every day, fast diligently, yet they're also sniffing coke lines everyday in the campus parking lot...contradictions and hypocrisy exist within every personality, Muslim or not and those personalities regardless of what is "right" religiously, should be represented because that is what is real...
@@Strawfurball first of all you’re right, some people do that but not the majority and it’s not normalized, & definitely they ain’t walking the streets doing it in front of masses
And you’re wrong that every personality has hypocrisy. If that’s your view and what’s shown to you then don’t generalize because it’s not the majority of people. I never met a niqabi that smokes in public and do whatever was shown in the vid.
They want to normalize that part and think that’s ok, and the part where the women was fighting an invading enemy force in her land is supposed to be bad?
It’s the other way around and may Allah guide those who r seeking truth to the truth and keep them steadfast, and have mercy on whoever dies fighting injustice and tyranny

There are several sects in Islam, there are people who claim Islam to kill people like ISIS, and there are people who spread Islam incorrectly No, you are wrong, not as you think. Our religion urges us to do good even with our enemy. We are good people. Try living with us and you will know who we are. Do not judge us by hearing, acting, and accusations.

The Quran and the Sunnah denigrate all other non muslim beliefs and the non believers. Non muslims can verify the violent putting down of non muslims by reading the Quran.
So You Are saying ISIS is a not a bad group,IS Killing innocent people and Kids OK?,Is that OK with you?,Are you on drugs?.
Thank Goodness Riz is starting a conservation which we need more than ever. Also, he’s such a cutie 🥰
Rizwan. You're so lucky your parents gave you such a beautiful name. Own it, my dear brother.
Bra, Riz is a Pakistani short form for people known as Rizwan or Rizk, even my friend known as Rizwan is called Rizz!
Yes well American Sniper was based on a sociopathic soldier. A very disgusting human being. I saw him talking about his memoir. He’s definitely not going to God, if you catch my drift.
Live by the gun die by the gun.
@Tradez then who created the universe you think all of that suddenly appeared ? what a fool lmao

@Brujo X Chris Kyle killed people with a gun and was killed by a gun himself. It was karma
huge fan of Riz Ahmed not a single role he played, and wasn't text book perfect
I loved the show ladyparts ! It shows that even being Muslim you have a normal life, hobbies and even struggles. I can only recommend it :)
He was surprisingly wise and he put the struggle into perspective really well.
Rizwan Ahmed - such a beautiful and warm name. Hopefully we’ll have stories from the 4th stage in our time:)
Seriously after seeing this I love you Riz Ahmad as a Muslim you had fulfill your work and tell what Muslim really are❤️❤️❤️
SubhanAllah. We still have people like you who wouldn’t be tamed by others and who would stand against criticism of our religion.
WOW, what a big surprise. Congrats for the team.
Love it. Although I wished this video or other Muslim speakers who talk about this topic gets more attention and spreads this message about these offensive stereotypical ideas about us.
Riz is right. This propaganda was pushed into us after 9/11. Kids and women with grenades was one of the stories our sergeants told us to make us nervous before deployment. Never saw a single instance or even heard one similar story come out of my 14 month deployment.
Loved him in Rogue One and The Night Of, thank you for this video
I loved the character he played in the first venom movie he did a good job playing Riot/Carlton Drake!!!🔥⚡️
what about a niqabi smoking screams great representation 😐
Not going to lie, the majority of the comments are praising this but I just can’t see it. I found the niqabi one to be kind of disrespectful and trying to hard to fit in. But Idk everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Finally a voice. I rem when I saw the clip with sniper, I felt sick. It actually stopped me from watching any terror associated movie because of the disgusting propaganda. Those movies really just enable hate. Thanks Riz
Powers to him 🔥🔥🔥
6:25 "on the verge of BLOWING UP", not the best choice of words 🤣
Lmaooooo careful careful
one of my favourite actors, love him in venom
RIOT over controlling Venom. Phenomenal acting his lines
A lot also applies to other minorities. I am Chinese, and I often feel similar things.
Great stuff, Riz is on the right direction, as muslims we're not here to cater to anyone or be accepted none other than Allah SWT. Pity some other Muslim celebs are sell outs 😔
Literally one of the best, if not THE best, of us out there. More power to you Rizwan, you always inspire me!
Man like mubeen is something that has a really good when it comes to muslim representation, but its more so desi representation and just londons mans type stuff
Riz 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰 proud
04:08 I am sorry, but Islam doesn't allow different sexualities. Pardon me if I am wrong.
Who told you that. Thats the misunderstanding created by our one sided media. Generally, after all of research it has been found that 86.7% of people are identified as men or women. Other sexes are there, and if you're born a homosexual etc, theres nothing wrong with it. The problem is in practicing homosexuality and endorsing it as it is a worldwide phenomena. It's not, the scale is infinitesimal. Homosexuals have their rights, theres nothing wrong in being one. It's a medical condition according to DSM and is treatable in 75% cases like kleptomania, paedophilia, zoophilia, nmk syndrome
@@abdullahtariq2032 thanks for the information my friend.
May Allah protect you Riz and uplift you among these hollywood idols
You know, this reminds me of the scene from Inglourious Basterds where Daniel Bruhl's character is bragging at the French (and, unbeknownst to him, Jewish) girl he likes about why he's the "pride of the nation" because of how many people he's killed. "The pride of the nation is you?"
"Did you become an actor to further the Muslim struggle?" I'm sorry what?!?!
Someone should tell Riz that American Sniper is based on a true story. As a Muslim I don’t think that scene was racist at all, just a realization of what actually happened there.
Ya..some true story....about a psycho criminal soldier & his country invading other country.
Did they think they'll welcome them with garlands???🙄
@@bruce_v4889 More like a soldier who was doing what his country ordered him to do and was left with severe ptsd from the decisions he had to make to fucking survive, then was murdered by someone suffering the same.
You blaming the soldier shows ur uninformed and ur inability to look at things objectively. Blame the government, not the soldiers please.
@@gingerbread7778
Then in the same vein...can we have pity on terrorists and say that they did what their organisation had asked them to do.
Poor twrrorist chaps they had to do dirty work and suffer PTSD too.
No..??
Then why have sympathy for state & country sponsored terrorism & their terrorists..err...soldiers...😐
Why is one killing different from another??
And hey...I'm just talking of killing of innocents...not tyrants or bad guys.
Simple answer : Because you have one yardstick for one people & another for 'other' people.
So pls don't embarass yourself further & ponder over your internal mental thinking process & perspective of things.
Lastly...I don't have any sympathy for any terrorist ....be they from any deluded religious organisation or whether they come under the garb of an uniform from any deluded country.

I love America. This country has given me a lot . But please try to understand Riz Ahmed's message. Islamophobia is only going to create more problems in the future. Today we celebrate Thanksgiving in this country because somehow we feel remorse about our then behavior towards the Native Americans.
We also use Hashtags like #blackLivesMatter or #AsianLivesMatter .Why? Because we realize that whatever has happened to these communities, is wrong. So when will we realize that #AllLivesMatter.

We got Kumail Najani aka a Muslim from Pakistan representing US as a Marvel Super hero with Hollywood mega stars so I guess it's one giant leap. Similarly what Riz is doing is taking a Mickey out of and punching holes into the westernized hypocrites and racist narrative about Muslims one movie and interview at a time. Cant wait to watch both of the films - feeling excited. 1:35 I can't believe how accurate this scene was to real life Rofl . Excelsior 👏🏼🤲🏼

Tho I was kinda shocked when he called a woman who smokes as 'badass woman'
I really want to see this film. Just that scene with Rizwan's character and his family talking is so relatable. It's just spot on.
Rizwan Ahmed is a brilliant actor and he is right about the awful Muslim representation on screen. There is only two times iv seen positive Muslim representation on screen. One was The 13th Warrior back in the 90s and the other is a recent horror mini series called Midnight Mass.
For most of the movie 13 Warr. Banderas is perceived as a sissy by the Norsemen, though :)

@@Loner-Wolf, indeed, he was a squeamishly clean sissу.
Even he's a villain(carlton drake/riot) but his heart is always gold stay halal🙏
Riz Ahmed unlike Kumail Nanjiani owns his Pakistani and Muslim roots. Thats why I love him 💕
I don't think that is really fair. People should not be pigeon holed into acting a certain way just because they happen to look a certain way or from a certain country. I have a muslim name and look very "muslim" but I am not a muslim. I do not believe in islam. I never believed in it. Yet I am expected to "own" my roots? what roots? I am not from that part of the world. I was born here.
@@yokiryuchan7655 roots mean one's ancestral roots. Your roots don't start where you are born. Why native americans are called 'native' but not the white or black? If your point had any ounce of truth there would be no racism in this world.
It's your choice whether you connect to our ancestral roots or not.
@@HassaanQ You clearly didn't understand my argument. It doesn't matter whether it is a country you are from, whether you look a certain way or what your "ancestral" roots are. Why should i have to act a certain way? Just because of where my ancestors are from which can never truly be ascertained anyway because everyone if you go back far enough is not truly one race Also Kumail Nanjiani fully acknowledges where he is from. He didn't change his name to something" more "white" sounding like Ben Kingsley or Freddie Mercury did. He never denied the fact that he is Pakistani. He even made a movie about his experiences as muslim man being in love with a white American woman.
@@yokiryuchan7655 But kumail is not helping change the Pakistani or Muslim stereotype that exists in hollywood. he's just going with the flow. Even most of his stand-ups were based on Pakistani or Muslim stereotype. Knowing what's represented in hollywood is wrong.
@@HassaanQ Sadly a lot of minority actors have no choice but to go with the flow otherwise they won't get any work. You could argue what he is doing is not changing the stereotype but the alternative to that he never works. and Kumail has bills to pay just like everyone else. The problem is not Kumail doing these stereotypical roles is that these are the only kinds of roles available to him which illustrates the structioneral problems in hollywood which Riz Ahmed is talking about. and the solution to that is to encourage more muslim writers, and directors and for muslims to empower themselves to create their own projects just like Kumail did when he made The Big Sick. Yes he is telling his own life story and he is basically playing himself in the movie but at least he is not playing another characture or stereotype. He is playing a character with actually depth. and he is the lead star. His stand up routine is based on his experiences as a Pakistani muslim. Comedians often draw on their experiences and background in order to entertain.
This was the case maybe 10 yrs ago. But it not like that anymore
I only watched these few secs of the movie and completely hated it.
Awesome Masha’Allah
There is no point trying to make it in Hollywood if you are going to lose your values in the process 😅🤷♂️
Just got denied for his artist fellowship. I guess I got to do this thing by myself. Pray for me guys!
Don’t give up!
Assalamu alaikum,sir..... I have waited so long for this speech.... On this..... I hope it will change after this..... Thank you so much❤for your effort......
I really respect Rizwan because he is a proud Muslim even when he is working in big movies in Hollywood. He didnt abandoned his religion for his career. which is hard specially when your career is in Hollywood. He walked the hard road for holding his faith and doing what he love. Many Muslim actors or comedian who are now household name in Hollywood have become atheists to fit in. Perhaps thats why many Muslim people dont want to pursue this career to not lose their faith. But Rizwan showed that it is possible to keep both.
A lot of muslims are atheists who pretend to believe in gods to fit in with their parents/families. A lot of christians are the same. In this day and age, most people don't really believe in these old stories about magical beings.
he could have changed him self in RIOT but he controlled his anger
Good Work my Brother 🙏🏼
Really appreciate your Channel 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Very true.. Glad someone mentioned.

Finally, i lived long enough to hear someone talk about hollywood propaganda, these movies are just getting worse and worse. We need to start making our own movies
My wife's ex-boss was in the British Royal Navy. He shared with her how he shot dead a Muslim boy armed with explosives, according to him, because he had to decide at that moment, either the boy or his friends. He couldn't sleep ever since as he suffers from PTSD. Possibly the guilt from killing the boy. Wallahu alam.

2:50 this guy's the villain of the movie, right? I mean he just killed a kid. He can't actually be the hero
If 1 kid could kill 10 men is it worth sparing the child only so the rest can die? Obviously this is a movie but this can too and maybe has happened in real life. It's just how much value you put on the lives of others...
The kid had an explosive, it’s war man and war is hell. A lot of soldiers get PTSD and commit suicide from having to make decisions like this

That sniper movie supposedly depicting his life story was full of lies since he was serial pathological liar who was sued in court and lost for lying.
Sahih al-Bukhari 6802
Narrated Anas:
Some people from the tribe of `Ukl came to the Prophet and embraced Islam. The climate of Medina did not suit them, so the Prophet ordered them to go to the (herd of milch) camels of charity and to drink, their milk and urine (as a medicine). They did so, and after they had recovered from their ailment (became healthy) they turned renegades (reverted from Islam) and killed the shepherd of the camels and took the camels away. The Prophet sent (some people) in their pursuit and so they were (caught and) brought, and the Prophets ordered that their hands and legs should be cut off and that their eyes should be branded with heated pieces of iron, and that their cut hands and legs should not be cauterized, till they die.
wanna watch a movie from an innocent arab family's perspective, their homes getting raided by the us forces.

Riz Ahmed is the Coolest Muslim Actor in the World. I want him to win the Oscars someday.
What a legend, I honestly didn't know Riz was Muslim so therefore I've become a fan of his ❤
More power to you.
Be safe.
GOD Bless You Riz Ahmed 💯🎯💜🌱🕊️
tbh idk why i never thought riz ahmed is muslim after a lot of years knowing him
Really?? Being a bad ass smocking, walking with arrogance in the street while being a niqabi is a cool bad ass representation of muslim women??? This is everything islam stands AGAINST if it was for females or MALES. Islam is manners, walking humbly on the streets, not doing anything that hurts us (smocking, drinking alcohol). What on earth did he just described the women in lady parts🤦♀️ If you are a reasonable muslim you’ll know it WRONG for both genders to do such things
What a great comment!
I agree modesty is also in your character as well.
I was thinking the same
Well he didn't praise the smoking and arrogant walk. The representation isn't perfect but its a nice deviation from what we usually see. It's nice to see a muslim woman who's confident AND obviously muslim. Besides most muslims aren't perfect anyways and to portray them as perfect people wouldn't be very accurate, but I get your point
y'all be asking for representation and this is how you respond when it actually happens.
we're talking abt the representation of muslims not islam, I agree on islam being againdt what you actually mentioned but not all muslims are perfect and yes I saw hijabis smoking hijabis walking in arrogance and hijabis identifying themselves as a badass.
if you really want a representation then you ought to accept a realistic one not some that pictures muslims as perfect flawless and strictly obeying to rules human beings because that's not the truth for all muslims
It's a pity they didn't release the dir cut of merikan sniper.............where he got popped by his friend at a gun range.
Russian: First time?
Don’t be mad about the first one it was a movie called American sniper The kid actually had a grenade That is what he was holding he was trying to throw it at the US Marines.
Wow, Riz always leaves me astonished! Such a clever dude. Loved The Long Goodbye. Fuck American Sniper man, you’re right, there’s no ceiling on the amount of time you can spend pointing out how prejudiced and racist that is, the less time spent on it the better.
The second clip would of been been considered bad representation by a lot mainstream Muslim Apologists and channels like Smile 2 Jannah
When I mean "the second clip" I mean the lady that owns the lingerie shop her attitude accessories, would not be appropriate and Islamic to many Muslims plus she's literally smoking i don't need to say anything else there.
Umm dude what do you even mean by muslim apologists?
Like, is being muslim a crime that someone playing apologist for is a bad thing?
I'm a Christian and Muslims shown as bad guys in movies makes me angry too i hate this it boils my blood!I i have a Muslim best friend we're like brothers he's so nice and a caring friend..
Yup
But it also bothers you the way the media also mocks christians or christianity that boils my even blood even more
And i'm saying that as a muslim
The problem is we Muslim still doesn't find anything alternative way to prove we are best truthful compare to them E.g. No matter how much people destroy Muslim image thru creating thier hidden propaganda but still Muslim proud to be muslims,, bcoz we know this short life is trial for believers but sometimes feel hurt..No matter whatever they do speak about prophet or religion buy we can't to do same like make movie about Jesus, or Moses (Pbuh) as it will more hurt us, As for them they doesn't care,, We Muslims doesn't control media or social media etc... Anyway Allah is enough for us...
Walekum aslaam wa rahmatullahi wa barkathu
As an atheist I'd like to add to this. It's not just fictional depictions of Muslims but real life as well.
During the 2000s we were inundated with fears about suicide bombings in the media, and as a teenager, hearing the fear get hyped up while seeing angry aggressive Muslim groups at home and abroad baying for blood was an unnerving thing to witness. What made it worse was that the Muslims brought forward on TV were usually either terrorist supporters, or inept community leaders who often came across as pompous, self-righteous, who sometimes subtly seemed to support Islamist terrorism and always were blaming everyone else for everything. This left me a very negative impression of Muslims, made worse when a distant cousin of mine was murdered by ISIS.
As an adult however, I did a community woodland project at work with a group of Muslim boys and the local imam. They were some of the nicest kids I'd ever encountered. And with the Imam - a very jovial and warm-hearted chatterbox - came the local Muslim women who cooked some spicy rice and onions for us, and it occurred to me that this was probably common practice in Muslim communities like India, Pakistan, Afghanistan etc, that perhaps it was common for such places for the locals to greet guests like this. (I could be wrong about this idk, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was true.)
Another change of pace was when I began a casual intimate relationship with a Muslim girl (still ongoing), a very beautiful and talkative girl, very independent regarding her sexuality (like the girl in ladyparts here but without the face veils) but also very kind and understanding and willing to listen to me when I talked about being bullied at work.
It struck me how blatant the contrast was between the warm-hearted, generous and friendly people I'd encountered, and the yahoos and weirdos wheeled out onto the media.
Just watched 4 Lions! Respect to Riz doing that!
Thanks for showing real picture
Why in all foreign movies & videos they always represent Muslims in wrong way
That called height of racism
Are Muslims a race now?
ALHAMDULILLAH ❤️ ALLOHU AKBAR 🙂
