#411 โ€“ Omar Suleiman: Palestine, Gaza, Oct 7, Israel, Resistance, Faith & Islam

So I think that the sheer size, right, we're talking about a tiny piece of land and a lot of people that were removed forcibly from their land and that continue to be brutalized under those miserable conditions.

It's the land of prophets. It is a land that holds deep significance, obviously, to Jews, Christians, and Muslims. It's the land of Abraham, peace be upon him. It is the land that has such a rich history to it that connects multiple peoples in multiple ways. It's precious.

I think that history, while it tells the story of tragedy and struggle over that piece of land, also tells a beautiful story of sanctity.

Well, Islam refers to this idea of submission to one God and attaining peace in the process and refers to the way of life that prophets have all come with, which is this idea of monotheism and serving that one God in the way that he commands you to serve him. So to us, as it says in the Quran that we do not distinguish between the prophets, all of the prophets came with one message, one mission.

There's a coherence in the creed. There's a beauty in the foundation of what would become the legislation of each of those prophets. And we see them all as siblings in prophethood. And so we say Abraham, peace be upon him. We say Jesus, peace be upon him. We say Moses, peace be upon him. We say Muhammad, peace be upon him. We believe that. Moses came to confirm what came from Abraham.

Jesus came to confirm what came from Moses. Muhammad came to confirm what came from Jesus. They upheld the same message. God did not change over time, nor did the centrality of his message of monotheism change over time. And so to us, it's one beautiful house.

There's a saying from the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, where he describes the house of prophethood, each prophet being a brick and him simply being the last brick of a beautiful house. And so we love the prophets of God and we believe that they each came with the legislation that was necessary for the time, but with the same message.

Yeah, you know, it's like when you talk about MLK and Malcolm to an extent. Except there was actually some difference, right, between MLK and Malcolm. You know, I just think that the difference is exaggerated between them. Right. I don't think that Moses didn't emphasize love, but Jesus emphasized love, and then Muhammad didn't emphasize love, peace be upon them all.
