What I say is, Look, the important thing in life is that you must identify; Who are the people there to subvert you, Who are out to steal your children, and so on. Instead of worrying about the beard or the mustache, whether it should be shaved or trimmed. What is this luxury that we are enjoying?

He comes in. Sits down. I say, “where do you come from?” He says, “I come from England.” A few days later, another knock at the door. I open the door and another white man. This is right in the center of Karachi. I say, “what can I do for you?” “I have some literature for you.” “Where do you come from?” “America”. This guy’s coming from 6000 miles, that guy is coming from 10,000 miles to preach me in my country. I want to know what am I doing? Nothing. Nothing. It is an obligation of the Muslims to deliver the message long before Salah, Zakah, and Hajj became Fard. Allah tells his prophets and through him, He’s telling us, “You deliver the message because it’s your duty.”
