Abdullah Hakim Quick - Do Not Ignore History

About this lecture

In this powerful lecture, Sheikh Abdullah Hakim Quick urges Muslims not to ignore history, using the documented transformation of Palestinian land ownership from 1917 to 1967 to contextualize the ongoing crisis in Gaza. He highlights the destruction of the historic Masjid al-Omari al-Kabir as part of a broader cultural genocide targeting the memory and identity of the Palestinian people. Drawing on lessons from Bosnian, Crusader, and Mongol history, he calls on Muslims to remain resilient, support advocacy organizations, boycott, and raise their children with a clear understanding of the struggle.
