126 – The Taqiyya of Farid Responds – Part 1 ft. Abdullah Gondal
In this episode, the two Abdullahs are back together to review Farid’s response to our “Epileptic Prophet” series. We decided to respond because Farid was manipulating our videos by editing them to create the impression that we were ill-informed on the topic and that we were misleading our audience.
Abdullah Gondal and I took our time to go through Farid’s claims and pointed out how he was manipulating our videos. We showed how he was editing out explanations, twisting our words, and outright lying just to make it seem like he had countered the arguments we had raised. We even replayed our original videos to show Farid’s bad faith rebuttals and hypocrisy.
This was a fun-filled episode as we exposed the intellectual dishonesty and manipulative ways of the Dawah people. I invite you to take a listen!
