Fake news trying to create “Islamophobia “.
What🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Gang violence…
Shameful!
I wait for facts before imaging perceived hate crimes anymore. Too many lies. Let’s see what really happened
When islamist meet real friends😂😂
When lindu see real toilet and not bushes 😊🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pajjjett my son
Stop killing 😡
Every interview from a black person is he was a good man until you dig in their background and find out he wasn’t such a good man I’m sure he had ties to the Palestine movement a lot of these mosque or nothing but fronts or recruiting centers facts
Video is useless without context. Newark is the hood, not Gaza. Was he perhaps active against gangs? Were there internal quarrels? Was there money involved?
Compliments of hatred and Islamophobia spewed by Fox and Sky News.
Wherever Islam is there will also be violence. Condolences to his family.
Lemme guess? The GUNMAN has a right to defend themselves?
You IGNORANT Americans just LOVE to blame EVERYTHING on the Muslims don’t you?
As some one who knows first hand what this feels like I hope nothing but the best for his family friends and the people who loved him. We must keep up the fight against gun violence in the name of the fallen. ❤
what is going on with this wall to wall national coverage?
No suspect info so suspect not white
No? It means they don’t know who did it. It could be anyone. Use you brain.
@@ozzy4108 Use yours
1 in 3 black men are felons
1 in 5 Hispanic men are felons
1 in 106 white men are felons
Odds favor a non white
Inna Lillahe wa innah elahi rajioun,
What work this imams do?they are the main supporters for terrorist as and so they are victims .give and take.good or bad.
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “There will be a tribulation in which the one asleep is better than one lying down, the one lying down is better than the one sitting, the one sitting is better than the one standing, the one standing is better than the one walking, the one walking is better than the one riding, and the one riding is better than the one running. All of those killed on both sides are in Hellfire.” I said, “O Messenger of Allah, when will that happen.” The Prophet said, “Those are the days of slaughter.” I said, “When are the days of slaughter?” The Prophet said, “When a man is not safe in his own gathering.” I said, “What do you order me to do if I witness that?” The Prophet said, “Hold yourself back, restrain your hands, and stay in your residence.” I said, “O Messenger of Allah, what is your view if a man breaks into my residence?” The Prophet said, “Go into your house.” I said, “What is your view if he enters my house?” The Prophet said, “Go into your prayer room and do like this,” and he grasped his elbow with his right hand, “And say ‘my Lord is Allah’ until you die upon that.”
allah are the phantasmagorias in the bewildered minds of muslims.
And they utter nonsense talking about terrorism 🤦🏻♂️
Any single terror event in America, Middle East, North Africa and Europe, connected to ISRAEL (MOSSAD)!
When will Elise Stefanik hold hearings to condemn Islamophobia.
Or is this not priority for Aipac
What is this “Islamophobia” you speak of?
@@charliehammer8780 the killings of muslims in america because of some actions of a terrorist group?
Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiyoon 🤲😢❤️
Jewish communities are the one who is complaining about antisemitism but Muslims are the one who is dying in USA all the time. You are the boss of USA, how can tell me that you are fearful at same time.
# Muslim lives matter
May Allah put mercy on the imam amin❤
Hahahahahaha
Ofcourse it’s not terrorism
United states of izrail
fake imam,no power,,like fake as uncrucified christ.tom church
Your name is “Paul”. 😂😂😂.
Your name is Paul 😂
“Paul” 🤡🤡
Sending prayers. I’m so sorry. ❤
Zionist- terrorism is behind all hate crimes against Muslims in America
And they said islam is terrorist smh
Yo fake news make sure to let the viewers know this was a black on black crime cause God forbid you report the news accurately.
The killer hasn’t been caught so how can you say this? You don’t know. You are just assuming things and that is a really bad way to go about making opinions.
Islamaphobia at its peak and no one wants to talk about it.
You did not say anything for xtians in Nigeria
🤲🙏😔🤲🙏😔
Inna lilahe wa inna elahay rajeeon.
Sura 4:124, Quranic Guidance, “If any do Deeds of Righteousness, be they male or female, and have Faith, they will enter Heaven, and not the least injustice will be done to them.” (In Heaven)….to Allah belong all things in the Heavens and on earth: and He it is that encompasseth all things.”
“Stand out firmly for Justice for All, even against yourselves or your nearest of kin….Be true in speech.” Quranic Guidance, Sura 4.
AIPAC is the biggest internal threat to the US.
They are forcing American politicians to redirect billions of hard earned US tax dollars towards their masters in Israel.
Instead of using these billions of dollars on American schools, security and infrastructure, they’re going towards Israel’s wars and genocide of others.
This is also increasing security threats to US interests globally so harming Americans directly.
This is Pure Terrorism against a whole community but the media will probably call this a hate crime. Now if the roles were reversed this would definitely be called terrorism.
DOUBLE STANDARDS and HYPOCRISY.
If this was say mossad, do you think he’d be in jail for long.
Who is the murderer, zionist ??
This is the reality of Christianity. Thats why Jesus hates them.
Usa is supporting this Genocide with American Tax money ! How shamefull to call themselfs a Democracy 😂
Islam is is-lame
“Is-lame” 🤓🤡
Yea they are. Women should have rights. Crazy how islame is even around anymore
This is Mossad movement
It is now clear who the terrorists are. Many incidents of killing Muslims here and there. This is not a hate crime, but terrorism.
Probably was owed money to someone
Where are you getting that from?
I have never loved America. This country is increasing my hatred for it. The people and the government are both criminals and love murder and wars.
Muslims should start to bear arms and protect themselves against these extremists
Wow nbc, surprised you’re actually reporting. It’s too late tbh
US becomes the most unsafe country in the world to live in .
😢😢😢So?SAD STUPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
It has nothing to do with religion or politics. It has everything to do with a class of people residing in that urban ghetto.
We don’t know who killed him, so you don’t know that.
so now because it was for a muslim
its not terro*ism? its a psychopath right?
Oh Allah, I pray to you that his grave be a garden of paradise.
O Allah, be merciful to him, for he has uttered your testimony. Make it an intercessor for him, O Lord of the Worlds.
Oh Allah, I ask you to have mercy on him, forgive him, and purify him of sins.
This is a terrolst attack!!!!
America : The country of terrorists
“events’ in the middle east!?? wow…….. thank you
Are the authorities innocent in this affair 🤔
This was a racist Islamophobic hate crime.
Call it what it is.
Is allah not around now? Is allah is only there when things go in favour of muslims? Then allah is a joke only.
إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
May Allah (the All mighty) grant Imam Hassan the highest rank in Heaven and give his family and friends the strength and patience to carry on. All good souls will be reunited in Heaven, Ameen
Since its a Muslim its not terrorism but if it was done by a Muslim am sure the government will attack a whole country in the name of fighting terrorism
Ignorant crybaby.
AMURICA 🦅
The Media itself is also responsible at first place
“… responsibility”? Don’t you know God is always & everywhere Almighty in the material world? Ah, that’s why you’re babbling childish nonsense.
They keep trying to make people think we are all terrorists
Quran – 2:155-1556
155.) We will certainly test you with a touch of fear and famine and loss of property, life, and crops. Give good news to those who patiently endure—
156.) who say, when struck by a disaster, “Surely to God we belong and to Him we will ˹all˺ return.”
*inaa-lilahi- wa-inaa-ilaihi-Raaji’uun* (*We belong to God and to him we shall all return*)
Wow what is this world coming to. This happened on South Orange Ave Newark NJ I use to live across the he street. My brother and cousin use to belong to that congregation.
I’ve never felt so disgusted by USA before
Thanks god in Europe nobody can buy guns easily otherwise there would be Muslims killed daily. They are even more filled with hate then Americans
Muslims are killed everywhere and yet we are the terrorists. Shame on the media did awful job recent years lying to people about islam.
No facts at all but, not a bias crime. Unbelievable
It’s a hate crime
AMreka is the most racist country in the world with 210n15t rule at tha back
Those who shoot Muslims will let the American people be accused of being influenced by Yemen’s Houthis🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
A rise in Islamophobia? It is not a phobia if they are really out to get you.
Exactly! Muslims have been the subject of many propaganda campaigns. The h8te is real, not just a phobia
The only phobia on the rise is that Muslims and nut job liberals are afraid that Jews might continue to prosper.
False. There is true h8tred towards many groups and you just proved it
Which groups do I hate except perhaps the group you are in:)
@@brentoconner2537 I’m an American conservative, which you dislike. Yall leftists are ruinous to the sanctity of our nation. Everything else is pure bigotry
usa isn’t safe for human being 😡😡. USA the only one country who don’t like peace 💔😡
It’s terrorism
Rest in peace 🕊️ you are in a better place may Allah give patience to your family & to your Loved ones
The world is worried about human rights of Blacks and Muslims in USA
Muslims aren’t going to hide in fear of that’s what these criminals think.. this will only make them stronger
We have always noticed that if a black Muslim imam begins to have success and influence in the black American community, it either kills him or causes him endless problems. The sect that controls the USA therefore knows that only Islam can save and propel the black community towards excellence. dear Malcolm X , your students are always killed but your fight will never be killed.
How is this guy was a tsa employee 😂
What? He’s an American. Don’t be a bigot
MATISYAHU – KING WITHOUT A CROWN (870)
If the media would report news with bias this might not have happened.
I am not Muslim but killing anyone because of race or religion is wrong.
Not that murder ok, I’m just saying being evil to one just because of race or religious beliefs should never happen.
Learn to respect to disagree
Indeed, Allah is the best of planners. May God protect all of us
Ameen
“but its feel unsafe being jewish in america”
The cancer & pace keeper of world???
Russia vs Ukraine = America
Philistine vs Israel =America
China vs Taiwan =America
North Korea vs South Korea =America
India vs Pakistan =America
China vs India = America
Bro, this guy didn’t get killed walking out of the club at 2 am. It’s obviously linked to a terrorist attack. Even little kid would notice that 😅.
Remembering what peace was like when Trump was President 😢
America, the county of terrorists.
If roles were reversed they would call them terrorists
When he had also been attacked before with a gun then this crime definitely has some personal obejctive behind it. Definitely, Islamophobia.
As Salaam Alaykum
What is the status of security. The Imam is not armed.
Sooo….what was his stance on current events? IMO any Imam not decrying what HAMAS did on Oct 7 gets zero sympathy from me.
How about Oct 6 and before?
Imagine you get the martyrdom status and highest grade of paradise.
CIA/FBI killed IMAM
Its called western terorism attack
0:47 “Muslim rights are human rights”. Tf does that even mean? We have the same rights as everyone else in the country. 😂
How can they say that?
They covering up the real motives for some reasons.This investigation is spooky. The trying to conceal lnformation and doing a internal investigation to make sure the perpetrators are not anti Muslim or anti Palestine.
I hope Imam Hassan Sharif will be in Jannah forever. My name is Muhammed Mihal KAN. I am from Türkiye. I am a Turk and my religion is Islam. When I heard The Imam killed, I wanted to see his face. So I found news about him and I saw that he has a shiny beautiful face. I believe that he will be together with Prophet Muhammad Mustapha in the Jannah(Heaven). 😢
Before he start speaking about the death of the Imam he started with Middle East What does the imam have to do with Middle East? MSM is just full of fear mongering.
It’s crazy how much death follows all religions.
God please bring justice for this imam. May his sould be at peace in the after life
amin
