at the speed of light, the cloud of dust, and a hearty high old silver, the Lone Ranger. Faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the daring and resourceful mask rider of the plains led the fight for law and order in the early western United States. Nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. Out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse silver. The Lone Ranger rides again. The small southwestern town of Rio Vegas, situated near the river, and a scant half mile from Fort Craddock, had been built originally by the Spanish conquistadors. And true to old world custom, it was still surrounded on all four sides by a high doby wall. Huge iron bound wooden gates provided the only entrances and exits. And it was through one of these gates that a strange conveyance made its way one afternoon in late summer. A large canvas covered spring wagon pulled by a team of reluctant mules was driven by a portally pleasant-faced man wearing a tall beaver hat. Oscar Merriweather, salesman extraordinary, rang his team to a halt directly in front of Joshua Cratch, General Store. Joshua! Hey, Josh! German states has got a fog on voice like yours, unless it's one of them junk heads you're driving. She could have agrees with me. I should have reserved that remark from both of you. I haven't seen you in quite a spell, Oscar. What you doing down this way? Surely, Mr. Pratt, you haven't forgotten that a traveling representative for the Merriweather wholesale mercantile company never disappoints a customer. Oh, well, I... Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift accomplishment of their appointed roots. It ain't snow to rain down here in one thirty years, was the pity. What you're selling this time, Merriweather? It isn't what I'm selling, Mr. Pratt. It's the fact that I offer you unparalleled opportunity to purchase extraordinary merchandise at bargain prices. You sure about that? Now, what do you need? Tinware, cotton goods, oil cloth, mustard seed, cotton legs, buggy bolts, fine paintings, carpet bags, bedspreads, iron plows, fascinators, ladies hats, Valentine's, butter churns, books. That's what you need. Joshua, I'm offering a complete twelve-volume set of the Merriweather classics. All of the wisdom, romance, history, and philosophy of the ages for only two dollars and forty cents. Most of my customers can't read. And besides that... But can't read? Then they must write. I have a special item just for that purpose. It's something you should stock up on right away. Pens, Joshua. Steel pens. Everybody needs a pen. Write a letter home to mother. Write one to your sister, to your brother, right to your congressman.  I ain't gonna buy any pesky steel pens than you know it. Very well, Joshua. You forced me to unveil the item I had constructed especially for you. What do you mean? You'll notice that the body of my wagon is a little different this trip. Canvas curtains on both sides. What's the item? It's inside the wagon. I'll pull back the curtain and show you. What? A life-sized stocked horse. Oh, not stuffed. A wooden horse. A giant, true-to-life replica of every gallon steed whoever lived. Notice the artistry of construction. Full muscles, back and legs. Flowing mane and tail and genuine rhinestone eyes. Truly a magnificent animal.  For you, Joshua. Me? I don't want to buy any full contraption like that. I can see you don't understand. Oh. You need this wooden horse mounted right here in front of your store. All the big end poems in East have one. Why? Don't make any sense. As a progressive businessman, you've got to advertise. Let the people know you sell harness, buggy whips, bridles, curry combs, everything for a horse. What better way to tell them than by placing this effigy of Pegasus in front of your store? If that ain't the most dad-blame, local idea I ever heard of. There are a hundred other good reasons why you should buy it, Joshua. No. How? No, you won't, Maryweather. I've been fooled by your slick line of care before. Talking me into buying truck I don't need and can't save it. Joshua. How about the last time you was here? Sold me 60 barrels of coal oil, and they're still a-setting back there in the storeroom. Well, maybe that kerosene order was a little, shall we say, far-sighted. But this wooden horse is something... No, sir. Not on your life. If you want to sell that fake critter, take him over to the west wall. There's a band of kaiyo engines over there. They might buy it. I noticed those Indians when I drove in. How come they're camped inside the wall? Oh, nothing wrong with that. They're harmless redskins. They stop here every year to patch the tents and do some trading. Oh, I see. Take your fancy wooden horse over there. Maybe... The world was back. Calc Potcher's letting off steel, I suppose. No, it wasn't. Those hyenas are part of Maudi Steel's gang. Maudi Steel? You mean the outlaw? Well, I thought... I mean, I heard he was in jail. Right here in Rio Vegas. Yeah, he's supposed to be jailed, but there's something mighty queer going on here in town. Well, I don't understand. If Maudi Steel is in jail, how come he and his gang are cutthroats right in and out of here whenever they please? Well, I'm sure I don't know. That question's been bothering me for quite a spell. By Juniper, I'm going to get the answer to it right now. I'm going to walk up to the courthouse and see Bill Donegan, our combination sheriff and mayor. You want to come along? Sure. Why not? Good afternoon, Sheriff. Or should I say your honor, Mayor Donegan? Listen, Maudi, you and your gang shouldn't ride down the main street and broad daylight shooting off guns.  Just glad to be back, that's all. We put in a hard night's work last night over in Shelton County. What was it? Train robbery or a cataross? Now, Sheriff, that's a professional secret. It's got to stop. It can't go on. Yeah? Why can't it? You said all you wanted to do was hold up here in town for a few days. Well? You've been here almost a month, and instead of five or six men using my jail for a hideout, there must be 50 down there. Got any objections? Yes, I have. I'm going to see the two... Now, wait a minute, Donegan. You're dealing with Monty Steele, not one of your 10-star deputies. What Monty? I put 5,000 in gold on the line, and all I asked you to do was arrest all of us. Sure. I was local enough to sell out to an outlaw. I know that now. Arrest the gang so they can use the town as headquarters. You know, the law from other counties can't touch you as long as you're technically under arrest here.  If this keeps up, you'll have so many gunslingers in here you'll take over the town. It's already happened, Sheriff. What? What do you mean? From here on out, you're taking orders from me. I won't do it. I'll tell everybody what's going on. I'll tell everybody. Now listen to me, 10-star out. Oh, excuse me, Sheriff. What is it, Zeke? A couple of chants outside. I want to see you. Who are they? Joseph Pratt, a friend of his. Joshua. I'll tell him I'm busy. I can't see. Now wait. Of course, the sheriff will see the jeans. They'll only come in. All right. But I can't see. Listen, I don't know what these jaspers want, but be sure you talk straight. I'm any handy with this shooting. Right in there. Hi, Sheriff. Hi. Just fine, Joshua. Meet a friend of mine. Travelling salesman. Oscar Murrayweather. I'm glad to know you, Mr. Murrayweather. Pleasure's mine, Sheriff. And this is Mr. Steele. Monty Steele. Hi, Agents. I thought I recognized the vomit. Ain't he supposed to be in jail? Well, you see, I brought Monty over here to the office to ask him some questions. Good idea. I want to ask a few myself. Do? What's on your mind, Joshua? Same thing that's on the mind of every other Laura Biden citizen in Rio Vegas. What's the idea of letting sidewinders like Monty Steele near Skunk's run lose? Why? I don't know what you mean. Oh, yes, you do. The town's running over with gunslingers. The scum of the country rides in and out of here like they own the place. Do they? No. No, you're mistaken.  I've known you for 20 years, and I've never seen you as nervous as you are right this minute. Maybe I can explain the situation. Maybe. You see, Sheriff Donaghan ain't feeling so well. He's going to take a long rest. And he's appointed me as Chief Deputy. You! No, Joshua. That's a lie.  You're right.  They've taken it over with the money. Joshua, this outlaw or whoever he is, shot... Where did him, you mean? Shot Bill down in cold blood. And by Juniper Hansen. In the claws of both of you. Bix, Bix, come here. Yeah, Monty? The payoff came sooner than I figured. Couple of zombies to march him down to jail. Sure. All right, gents. Get moving.  Talk, mister. Move. And Bix. Tell her frying to get all the boys together. Close the gates of this burg and post guards on the wall. Yeah. All right, let's go, you two. Put your hands down now. No need to let me rest for the others and know what's going on. Remember, I'm right behind you. Any funny moves now send both of you hoppin' for a harp. Savvy? Yeah, your... Meaning is very clear. Oscar, I'm packing a gun in my shoulder, Hoster. There was only some way... There is. We'll pass my team in the wagon in a minute. Those mutants can run if they have to. You make the plane. I'll draw down on this buzzard behind us. Stop, Gavin.  No! What the...  No! Climb up, Joshua. Up on the front seat. Yeah.   Burn the wind. You must be... Whip him up, Mary. Whip him up! This deal will have 50 of his hyenas on our trail. Which way? What's the shortest way? He's skating. Hurry! Run, you Missouri muttonheads! Run! The lone ranger and tanto guided their horses carefully along a narrow trail not far from Rio Vegas. Suddenly the masked man called a halt. Oh, Hoster. Oh, fellow. What matter, Kimosabi? Why we stop here? Is a cloud of dust up ahead, tanto? Can you make it out? Plenty far away. Me not... Oh, me see now. Too cloud of dust. Yes, I believe you're right. Looks like a team and wagon in front. Saddle horses behind it. Ah, then come plenty fast. We get off trail. Yes, we'll let them pass. But I'm curious to... A two-feller on wagon. Why don't them have guns? Watch out, Toto. He thinks we're going to stop him and he'll shoot his way through. Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Bless me if it isn't more our flaws. One of them wearing a mask. Here. But our team's winded and we've got to keep it going. Go ahead.   See this gun? What about it?  Here's where you train them for a team of mules. The curtain falls on the first act of our lone ranger story. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us to pause for just a few moments. We're going to continue our story. Joshua leveled his gun at the masked man and the Indian and repeated his command.  We need them. So do we. Arguing with these outlaws, Joshua isn't getting us to United States Marshal. Steel's gang is right behind us. We'll be caught in the middle. I ain't gonna argue with them. Get off them. You're not hurt. Just knock down your gun. I guess it's no use. We made a good try. Who are those men coming up? You ought to know. Outlaws are all the same breed. I hear you say you're hunting for United States Marshal. Sure. And we'd have made it if it hadn't been for merryweathers, crow bait, mules. Thank you, Masabi. Tunnels on saddle horses come plenty fast. Yes, I think. Quick. Drive your wagon off the trail to hide those trees. What do you mean? Don't ask questions. Hurry. Well, I... Get up there. Ride down the trail, Tunnel. Lose this gang and double back. Get him on the scout. One, two, three. Mr. Bean is a good place to stop. One, two, three. Pull there. Good. Is that a big fella? We can wait here till Tunnel gets back. Tunnel? Who's that? My Indian friend who led those men away from your wagon. Well, climb down from that seat. We'll rest a while. Strangers!  Yeah.  I'm not an outlaw. But I would like to know why you were so anxious to find the United States Marshal. You tell him about Monty Steele and what's going on in Rio Vegas. Monty Steele? I thought he was in jail. He was. I didn't mean he is, but he don't mean anything. That's so. Tell me about it. I still can't figure you out, stranger. Seems like... Oh, well, Maryweather and I couldn't be any worse off. Maryweather? That's Oscar here. I'm Joshua Pratt on the Mercantile Storm, Rio Vegas. This whole thing came to a head about... If you saw Monty Steele murder the sheriff. Sure. Did you lose him, Tunnel? He takes high trail. Double back. Good. This is amazing, Joshua. These two men here, they must be some kind of outlaws, but they're trying to help us. That's right. Uh, if both of you saw Monty Steele murder a man, it's enough evidence to hang him in any court. Sure. But since he's taken over the local law, only a U.S. Marshal could arrest him. It'll take more than one Marshal to corral that gang in Rio Vegas. It's a job for the Army. Shay, that's an idea. Maybe we could get word to the soldiers at Fort Craddick. Enough troopers could do it. I think you'll find that the United States Army won't interfere with county or state law. Unless it's something that affects them directly. Oh, yes, I guess you're right. Seems a shame with the fort only half a mile down the river. You said you heard Monty Steele order the town gates closed and guards posted. Yeah, and the walls around Rio Vegas are 20 feet high. That makes it even more complicated. Dad blasted Murray Weather. If you would only been trying to sell me an iron cannon instead of a wooden horse, it could be some help to us now. What's that about a wooden horse? It's bolted to the floor of my wagon. You see, I wanted Joshua to put it in front of his store. Yeah, but I was too smart for you. I ain't forgetting those 60 barrels of coal oil you fast-talked me into buying. They've been sitting in my store room ever since. All the lamps in Texas wouldn't use that much coal oil. Do you mind if I take a look at the wooden horse? Oh, not at all. Come on, I'll show you. Very good imitation. I wonder. Joshua wouldn't believe me when I told him. Yeah, that's it. At least it's worth a trial. What are you talking about? Joshua, isn't the back end of your store close to the river? Right above it. Why? And the river flows right through the Fort Craddock Stockade, doesn't it? Yeah, I guess it does. Good. And Tonto and I'll take a chance on getting inside Rio Vegas. With all of Monty's gun hawks patrolling the walls? Oh, you wouldn't have a prayer, stranger? Maybe we will. It'll help me tear down the canvas sides on this wagon and perform a major operation on the horse. Have you gone local? That's exactly what the Trojans thought about the Greeks. What? Never mind. Let's get to work. Is it tailed? Ah, they gave us the slip money. What? You mean two more coupes and a team in the wagon got away from a half a dozen gun slicks? I don't know how they did it. We lost them about three miles east of here. Oh, Voldemort. That means they'll head for the nearest federal law. We'll have to move out of here tonight. Get across the border. Yeah. Tell the boys to clean out the town. Load everything in the wagons. Keep the wall gates locked. Don't let anybody in or out, savvy. Sure. Hey, what about Bix? How's he feeling? Bix is all right. The old Coutts bullet just creased his scalp. He's out driving one of the gates. I'm glad it wasn't serious. Hey, buddy. Oh, hello, Bix. Hi. Now what's wrong? Nothing wrong. Just wanted to tell you about a local engine medicine man outside the east gate. Driving a flat-bottom wagon with a big wooden horse bolted to us. Medicine man, wooden horse. What do I care about red-skinned malarkey like that? He wants to get in. Says a wooden horse is heat-baked medicine for them Kiowa engines camped inside the gate. I don't care what he says. Don't let anybody in. Hey, wait a minute, buddy. Those engines could cause us a lot of trouble before we leave if they went on a rampage. Better let them have that big medicine. Yeah, buddy. Red-skins are superstitious. Besides that, the wooden horse has got me curious. All right. Let him in. But I don't want anybody else slipping through those gates. Don't worry. I'll keep my eyes to you. You go with him, Huff.  Get him up there.  Pull up right over there. Pull there. Pull. Where's the gate, boys? It was almost midnight in the walled city of Rio Vegas. And Monty Steele's outlaw gang was busy loading wagons with stolen loot. When Tonto moved quietly through the shadows toward a huge wooden horse. Kimusabi. Kimusabi. Hello. Hello. Hello, Tonto. Oh. Keep going out now. Move it, boy. At the beginning, he got pretty cramped in there. Where's Monty Steele and the gang? They're mother and the street by jail. Good. And we can get into Joshua's store without any trouble. Come on. Make a match, Tonto. Keep it covered. Ah. We certainly cleaned out Joshua's store. The thing left on the shelves. Ah. What do we do now? Find the storeroom. Come on. Here it is. A window over there. From the river, Tonto. River. Plenty close. You hear it? Good. Here are those 60 barrels of cool oil Joshua was talking about. Me not savvy. Find a hammer or a hatchet. Help me carry this barrel to the window. Ah. Me help you. Ah. Ah. Hammer on floor. Ah. Give it to me. Ah. Whirling river. That's right. We're going to pour all 60 barrels of it into the river. They've got to hurry. There isn't much time. Yes. I know it. Give me that torch you made out of those rags. Ah. Thanks. Light a match now, Tonto. Ah. Good. Let's hope it stays lit until it lands on the river. Ah. Give us hobby. River burn. The cool oil on top of the water. Ah. But how does help catch crooks? The quickest way to get a message to Fort Craddock. A message that will bring soldiers up here without asking questions. We wait here. No, Tonto. They're going to open the gate and let the troopers in. Meet Joshua and Mr. Maryweather outside the wall. All right. Come on. Fire. The whole blame rivers on fire.  Come on outside and see. Here I'll be. Somebody must have poured oil on it. The worst part of it, Monty. It's burning from here clear down to Fort Craddock. What do those troopers do when they see it? I hear the bugle. That's what they'll do right up here. We can't get away through the south gate on kind of fire. Well, what can we do? Tell every man to get a rifle. Climb the walls. We'll hold them all. Fire. The troopers are all those here, Tonto. They'll have to open the gates. Now there are two guards there. You take the one on this side and I'll take the other. Let's go. All right, you. How about a Tonto? Let me get them. Good. Now grab that chain and we can swing open the gates. Yes, sir, Captain. All of these men are guilty of treason as well as outlawry. Put them in handcuffs and march them back to the fort. Yes, sir. Hey, Juniper, that's what I call real action. The troopers will right in and mop them up. That's right. Didn't last very long either. Where's the masked man? He and the Indian must have been the ones who opened the gates. Yeah. Oh, I sure wish we could find them somewhere in this crowd. Well, I guess there ain't much chance. I'll never know who they are. Wait a minute, Joshua. Isn't that Monty Steele standing handcuffed over there in the war? Sure. That's the skunk. I've got something to say to him. Come on. Don't blame me, Monty. I didn't...  Monty. Well, what do you want? Tell him, Maryweather. He'll never know it unless you tell him. Tell me what? Just a suggestion, Monty. When you get time, I'd suggest you read a story. A certain story I think you'll enjoy. Yeah? Remember the name. It's called The Siege of Troy. The name you have just heard is a copyrighted feature of the Lone Ranger Incorporated.


The Yahoo Verizon deal is about to close. More job cuts could be coming. Yeah, you know what? I don't know what Verizon. I don't know what Tim Armstrong's plan is. I do think that Yahoo Finance needs to, which is such a popular site, has to get reinvigorated. I don't know where the job cuts are. I don't think it moves the needle of Verizon. I am consistent that I still like Verizon, but it's income. Earlier, we talked about do you buy stocks for income? You can do that. I mean, we're doing MMP. I did it for AEP, but for the most part, you people want growth, which is why, again, I refer people to my Candies article, which talks about the notion of how growth can transcend anything. But again, I am focused today also on the bounce back oil, on finance bounce back and retail, and whether it's sustainable. You want to stay tuned to that.

land of opportunity when it comes to independent thought. I'm gonna talk to you about a stock that you have no idea exists, and it is making waves in the face of what has been a tumultuous 2022 stock market. They have done some revolutionary things. The company has been around for 10 years. The company I'd like to introduce to you and kind of break this story over social media is Aduro Clean Technologies. It is a company that has been under the radar for good reason. It is half-owned by insiders. It has been in the making now for 10 years. Aduro Clean Technology sports a water-based technology that actually breaks down plastic that would have otherwise and has for the previous many, many decades ended up in our oceans and our landfills, okay? Now just for full disclosure, I've entered into a 12,500 share position in the company. This is by no means a call to follow all over yourself and go and buy the stock. We use social media as a conduit to provide awareness to those companies that you would not have been aware even existed out there on the marketplace, but I'm here to tell you that after 10 years of hard work and dedication, this management team led by the CEO and the co-founder is making revolutionary waves and you might think, okay, Ryan, you know, every company out there has a story to tell. They all have a story to sell. They all have the latest and greatest technology. What you need to be very, very aware of is the recent news that just broke with Aduro Clean technology being accepted by Shell Oil. Yes, indeed, I will say it again, Shell Oil. The major has selected Aduro Clean technologies and their water-based technology because it is absolutely a critical time right now to get this thing right. Every single company out there, I want you to take a moment and just imagine the major companies out there, all of the major plastic producers out there, which involves most of the major oil companies, as well as your product producers like Proctor and Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Kimberly Clark, and many others. You'd be hard-pressed to find a company out there that offers a product and does so without the necessity to offer those products by using plastic. Now, if you were like me, when I first discovered this company, I thought we had already had this problem of recycling solved a long, long time ago. I was drawn a triangle, a cyclical triangle, I might add, to suggest that when we throw our plastic and we throw our recyclables into the recycle bin, that that goes to the garbage processing plant, wherever that might be, and those plastics get recycled to end up in the introduction of new products. Over 80% of the plastics that come in are difficult to break down in their molecular structure. And these plastics that I speak of are your polypropylene, your polyethylene, and your polystyrene chemicals. They are very complex and they are very, very difficult to break in. And to my disbelief, over 80% of those plastics just get discarded by the wayside and they end up taking space in our landfills. And in a lot of global perspective, end up getting dumped in the ocean where there's regulations that may not be as strict as ours here in the US or other of the developed nations out there and they end up getting dumped in our oceans. It's a very, very sad story. But up until now, the science has not been existent to actually assist in breaking down these tough to break down plastics. Furthermore, the issue of contamination has also been an issue. You imagine eating a Snickers bar and having that contaminant on the inside of the wrapper, i.e. the melted chocolate, or you use your tide bottle after you're done doing the laundry for its last load in the bottle. And you end up taking that, you don't rinse it out, which you've got the stickering on the outside and you've got the residue on the inside, which all too often subjects those items to disqualification for further disposition in the recycling chain. Therefore, those get discarded to the oceans and to the landfills. This actually constitutes the status quo right now with what is safe to be considered a one-time use for the plastics that we had, at least 80% of those plastics that I just spoke of that are difficult to recycle. Aduro Clean Technologies has brought a low heat, low impact, environmentally friendly solution to the forefront that has been validated by a third party to give the stamp of approval on this technology that it in fact works. They are just finalizing their Reactor 2 program here in that they are going to turn out their first iteration of taking feedstock, which is the hard to recycle plastics, contaminated and all, and in some cases mixing the two and can actually come out with a product on the back end that can actually be reused to make the same product and complete that cyclical economy we are after. Furthermore, and this is the more exciting part of the Aduro Clean Technologies solution that they've brought to bear is the idea of upcycling. Upcycling is the ability to take those hard to recycle plastics, put them into the reactor and actually upcycle that product or material on the back end to be actually put back into the surface line in a different form or a butter form or a more desired form of that plastic. The idea here that Aduro Clean Technologies has put this technology to the rigor by nature of the third party validation and just recently being accepted by Shell Oil. In their Game Changer program, Aduro is a $40 million market cap stock. It has flown under the radar this entire time and nobody, and I mean nobody is talking about it and I think management likes it that way until right now. We've just got the floodgates opened to spread the word. I started my due diligence on Aduro Clean Technology about seven days ago. This was before the Shell News broke with the Game Changer program. It wasn't until I discovered that the stock is actually fairly difficult to purchase here in the United States being void of even recognition through major brokers like Charles Schwab, all of the discount brokers, Robin Hood, Weeble, M1 Finance, NERIA have it on their brokers for selection. Merrell Edge also does not have it available. I had to call a trade specialist and actually discuss with them that they've applied terms that would disqualify Aduro from the equation. Now, they did say that once the stock gets above, let's say a $5 mark and it's got a market cap much higher than what it has now, that they will offer that stock for purchase. I just kind of laughed a little bit and said, well, I'd like to buy the stock before it goes up, perhaps. Thank you very much. But I was able to identify those three brokers out there that actually do offer the stock without any restriction. You can purchase the shares unabated based on their own particular terms of agreement. My terms of agreement through interactive brokers was such that I self designated myself through the trading permissions to enter into penny stock trading. The stock right now is trading at about 74 cents US. It is still considered a penny stock. It is unknown, but trading at about 74 cents right now with some fairly heavy volume. The stock has boasted over the last five days a 25% run up and it's done so silently on the line. 25% run up in the last five days only speaks to the validation of acceptance into the game changer program from Shell Oil. Now I just wanna speak a little bit about this game changer program and what it could mean for Aduro, what it will mean if you visit aduroclean.com you're gonna find the corporate presentation on there speaking about their plans before acceptance into the program of doing everything in-house. And I have no doubt in my mind that aduroclean technologies would have brought their subsequent reactors online in a smart and scaled manner with each of the learnings from each of the reactors that they brought in line to lend itself invaluable to the next iteration of the reactor and then finally getting to that commercial reactor that they were gonna actually take out there to what they boast to be a very, very interested pool of the who's who within the oil industry as well as the consumer products and plastic offers out there. You can just use your imagination but it's very difficult to imagine companies like Johnson and Johnson, Proctor and Gamble that are not gonna be interested in this product. Now you might say, Ryan, what gives? Why would they have to turn over and really start to look hard at these technologies here with the ability to step in the way of a secular economy? The 2025 global mandates are coming online here and this is the interesting part where it's not gonna become an option anymore, it's gonna become required. And aduroclean technology boasts right now the leading chemical process, hydro-based process for processing those hard to process plastics anywhere in the world right now. They own the IP, they own the patents outright, nobody can duplicate what it is that they bring to the table and Shell Oil has just validated that for the entire world to know if you're an investor, you need to take note. If you're a major oil company, you can rest assured be very, very understanding of this. They are also taking note of this because Shell cannot be provided a competitive advantage without the other majors trying to keep pace with what has been defined as kind of a game changer in and of itself as Shell selected aduro as their program partner. Now over the next 12 months, we are gonna closely observe this story. Shell is going to provide capital, non-dilutive capital to aduro to assist them in accelerating their path to commercialization. Why? Because this solution is needed now. And dare I might suggest that this solution was needed 10, 20 and 30 years ago. We are here right now at the precipice of a change in history where we can say with full confidence that the technology exists, we are in the final iteration of those stages of finalizing a mass scale opportunity for aduro-clin technology. This news just broke this week. This is days old. That's a reason why the stock has popped 25%. I think the stock should be up 500% right now. It is not because I think there is a couple of things going on.  Therefore it makes it doubly difficult to identify situations where stocks like this are getting left in the dust. So you have to dig deeper. You have to dig and you have to look for those opportunities and aduro-clean technologies has just provided that opportunity with that validation from Shell. Now Shell is also going to provide their phased in approach. They are going to provide consulting and in-house resources. The whole idea here guys is that Shell uses their almost infinite budget and their almost infinite reach to in-house expertise to make sure that they can leverage and take this aduro-clean technology to the next level. And it is absolutely almost a foregone conclusion that at the end of 12 months, we are going to be looking at a radically different company in the process of being re-rated as we speak. Guys, I appreciate you tuning in to this quick shot aduro-clean technologies video. I will leave the ticker symbols in the description below for you guys that want to look it up right now. It is ACTHF. That is ACTHF here in the US traded in Canada on the ticker symbol ACT on the Canadian Stock Exchange. Guys, go check it out. Read the news releases. I will attach it to this video. I appreciate you tuning in. Leave your comments at the bottom and you're going to want to blast this out through your friends and families network out there that are also covering the microcap space. It is 10 years in the making guys. It is 10 years. And if you want to do this independently, you're going to be scouring over 10,000s of names. All right, the hard work has already been done for you. I've just provided your critical link to a company that is doing revolutionary things. And still at the time of this video is absolutely an unknown fly-under-the-radar company. But that is shortly going to change and it's going to be short-lived with this new announcement just this week of Shell Oil accepting aduro-clean technologies into their game changer program. It is in fact a game changer. Guys, thank you so much for tuning in to the message and good luck in your investment future.


Okay, go ahead. They had this one. Because it's like, no matter except something. Yeah, that's right. Do you mean to re-agree? Try again. Are we on this? Yeah, but we didn't have... We vote. We have, um... I mean, we need to start... Or re-try again. Or re-do something. It's also like, it could be. So re-try. Mm-hmm. Because they just do the same thing. So they put the prefix in the front. It could be to try again. So re-try. Yeah. The culprit. We have... We have... I think we have... We have... I don't have... I don't have IT or PR. It can still work if we have PR, IT. Because that's so free.


هذا اليوم سيكون مجموعة في سياراتهم يجب أن يكون مجموعة مع سياراتهم الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على سيدنا وعظيمنا وحبيب قلوبنا وشفيع نفوسنا أب القاس محمد وعلى أهل بيته الطيبين الطاهرين واصحابه الغر الميامين الحمد لله الذي جعلنا من المتمسكين بولاية سيدي ومولاية علي بن أبي طالب الحمد لله الذي هدانا لهذا وما كنا لنحتدي لو لا أن هدانا الله أما بعد يقول الله في كتابه الكريم بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم بولا أسألكم عليه أجرا إلا المودة في القرباء بولاية سيدي ومولاية علي بالثلال وعلى إيقان الدميرة المؤمنين علي بنا بيت طالب علي إيقان الدميرة المؤمنين أين أمم لك أتائق من غيرك عشة و الزمان أرى أنه يطبخوه ورحمة الله السلام عليكم إمام علي ابن موسى الرضا صلوات الله وسلامه عليه was born on the 11th of the qaeda in the 148th year after hijra and died according to varying reports on the 23rd of the qaeda in the 230th year after hijra a man from whose life extraordinary lessons may be learned and many principles may be derived especially principles concerning politics and society within which we live everyday lives you find that unfortunately his life has been very much understudied there is not enough value being given to the status of Imam علي ابن موسى in the idea that there may be many who admire him but do not necessarily have enough knowledge about his biography and indeed you find the period within which he was living in was one of the most turbulent times for any of the imams of al-Muhammad in the idea that the abbasid empire had established itself and therefore he had to find his position within the empire and until today unfortunately many people ask the question how could Imam علي ابن موسى take a position under a tyrannical leader that question I'd like to look at through this examination of this biography in order that we are able to appreciate the legacy of the Imam as we said the Imam was born on the 11th of the qaeda in the 148th year after hijra he was one of 37 children Imam موسى ابن جعفر had 37 children 19 daughters and 18 sons which is even more extraordinary when you read that Imam موسى ابن جعفر spent some part of his life in prison and that's why today you'll find the legacy of موسى ابن جعفر is so great that most of the Saadat are moussawi myself for example I am a moussawi there are many other Saadat who are moussawi who are from the lineage of Imam موسى ابن جعفر if you go to Lebanon there are moussawis if you go to Iran there are moussawis if you go to Pakistan there are moussawis moussawis all of them came because of the fact that Imam موسى ابن جعفر had that many children and these children of course when they get married and so on that lineage would continue to spread therefore you found that Imam عليبنا موسى was one of the 37 children of Imam موسى ابن جعفر of course 37 children came from varying wives for Imam موسى ابن جعفر but you find that Imam عليبنا موسى was from the wife which was from North Africa therefore the second of the wives of the imams of أهل البيت from North Africa you find that according to certain reports her name was Arwa some narrations mentioned has been called Najma I've read the narration which also mentions her with the name Tuktam possibly if you wanted to bring all of these together some maybe names, some maybe titles but you find she was of North African descent in the same way Imam موسى ابن جعفر's mother was North African Imam عليبنا موسى's mother was North African someone asked the question again why would the imams of أهل البيت marry from North Africa as in you are imams from مدينة why don't you stick to your city why marry someone of North African descent we answered yesterday by saying the first reason is that Islam wanted to break all the racial boundaries Islam wanted to come as a religion everybody is welcome not just a certain race a religion which only caters for a certain race is a racist religion and do not be surprised if that type of religion exist until today where it is very difficult for you to convert to that religion our religion is a religion from day one where our prophet and through the imams would always focus that everybody is equal all of you came from Adam and Adam came from Allah سبحانه و تعالى before you find on the first level to remove racism on the second level the imams wanted to show something else when Islam has gone and colonized or conquered Africa do not see yourself a second class citizens because we've conquered you you are as much part of our religion as we are you see when imam marries someone from North Africa the imam was showing that if I am an Arab and the caliphs conquered Africa then the Africans who have come to Islam are as much part of our religion as we are the Muslims today try and tell people who have only recently converted to Islam that you came late while we were there early whereas our eighth imam his mother when the seventh imam married her wanted to say she is from Africa but she is just as much part of this religion as I am number three and an important reason sometimes the traits and attributes of a different culture may be different from mine my Arab culture may be known for its generosity but the African culture may be known for its humility if we marry each other then those beautiful attributes can come together if I as an Arab am generous and I marry another Arab then we've got two generous people in the house if I as an Arab am generous and I marry someone from Africa and their trait is humility then we have generosity and humility in one house you therefore found that the imam his mother was from North Africa and they straight away decided to name him Ali someone asks why are there of the 12 imams four of them called Ali the reason was because from the time of Bani Umayyan till Bani Abbas they kept on trying to erase the name Ali Ahlul Bait kept on bringing it back you have imam Ali ibn Abi Talib imam Ali Zain Al-Abideen imam Ali Al-Raza and imam Ali Al-Hadi the reason Al-Muhammad was stressing on Ali was because in every generation of an Islamic empire they always tried to terminate or execute people with the name of Ali Muawiyah once looked at ibn Abbas he said I heard you've got good news ibn Abbas said yes Muawiyah said I hear you've got a newborn baby ibn Abbas said yes he said what did you decide to name him he said Ali Muawiyah said what's the title you're giving him you know the Arabs have a title Abel something he said I'm going to title him Abel Hassan Muawiyah said so you're putting both of them on the child Ali and Abel Hassan so he said yes he said ibn Abbas pick one of them not the two if you want to survive in my community pick one you pick Ali there's no Abel Hassan you pick Abel Hassan there's no Ali I'm not allowing for both and that's why حجاج بالنسبة عيد الأضحة would say what do the people slaughter they'd say sheep he said very well then we should slaughter anyone called Ali Hassan and Hussein when the people of the house named Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha with the name Ali the aim was that we don't ever want this name to be erased because the hatred against Ali ibn Abi Talib moved from one generation to another therefore at a young age you found that the Imam faced very difficult circumstances why imagine when you were born in this world you asked where's my father he's in prison in Basra 5 years later where's my father he's in prison in Baghdad 5 years later where's my father he's in prison here in prison there Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha faced the most difficult trial at the beginning of his life that he could hardly see Imam Musa ibn Ja'far from one prison to another they were moving Imam Musa ibn Ja'far and therefore there was an added responsibility on Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha's shoulders why because the followers of Ahl al Bayt number one could not reveal that they were followers number two if they could they couldn't go to the Imam of their time so they ended up going to Imam Ali ibn Musa Imam Ali ibn Musa his life is divided into two the first 35 years was while his father was alive but in prison the next 20 years when he became an Imam in those first 35 years when Imam Musa ibn Ja'far was in prison Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha decided there's no way I could speak out against Banyu Abbas many of our Shi'a are performing Taqia we can't do anything in this period so it's better that I sit in the mosque of Rasool Allah in Medina and I give lessons on how to build a Muslim community this is something fascinating Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha many people when they read his biography only know about Meshhad or Toos isn't it but Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha for the first 35 years of his life Imam Al-Kardem was alive so what was Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha doing for the first 35 years of his life he'd sit in the middle of the Prophet's mosque in Medina Ahl al Bayt used to love the land of Medina that was their home and Imam Ali ibn Al-Khuzai would say houses for Hamza and houses for Ja'far and houses for the rest of Al-Muhammad in Medina Imam would sit in the middle of the mosque in Medina he knew that the Muslim community had forgotten the meaning of the word community Banyu Abbas were leading and Banyu Umayyah were leading in small part of the world and there were different schools and segments there wasn't a united community he wanted to build the community where people began to realize what was their role within the community they lived in and there were four key lessons which he taught about how you build a Muslim community at a young age the first lecture he gave was a lecture about cleanliness a lecture where he said keep yourself clean for it is one of the for it is the manners of the prophets of Allah a community can never survive if there is no cleanliness if now in this community over here someone for example is smoking outside in our community someone is smoking if we say they are smoking outside our community on the main road and the cigarette but they just throw it on the ground I asked them would you do the same thing at home as in in your house do you smoke your cigarettes and just throw them in your front yard or at the front of your house or do you make sure that you actually look after the area number two when someone comes to the community you find it's normal for them if they finish with something to throw it on the ground that's it there's no problem do you know how many Muslim mosques there are in the world today where in those mosques you see a banana skin on the ground you see rice on the carpet you wish you had never done such a job on that carpet you smell on that carpet uncleanliness no one has looked after the place you find Imam Ali ibn Musa what did he used to say his first lecture on building a community when he was at a young age was make sure you keep yourself clean for cleanliness is the manners of the prophet because his great grandfather the holy prophet Muhammad has a famous line when he says that cleanliness is part of faith cleanliness نظافة من الإيمان what does it mean it means cleanliness do not say you are a mu'min and you have no cleanliness sometimes I get surprised when I come to modern day Muslim communities and you look around you and you see the trash that survives on the ground and you ask what's this they say oh there are cleanness they'll come later you are not a clean out of Allah's earth you have no respect for Allah's environment of your own mosque someone says it's cleanliness only about that no cleanliness is also in our personal hygiene how many of you have been to Ziyara and seen the state of some of our public lavatories you know when you want to go and do with all how many of you have been there and you look at the state and you are like are we all followers of Ali ibn Musa because you go in there and you see people without hygiene how many times have you come to the mosque and the person sitting next to you it's as if they have not had a bath for years you look at the person you are like is there no aftershave at home there's no perfume, there's no atar there's no deodorant when you come to the house of Allah you go to a wedding you store up your whole body with aftershave when you come to the house of Allah you come smelling like that it's normal they say it's religious for us as modest people religiosity comes where when you come in a state of cleanliness Imam's first lecture cleanliness another lecture when he was younger he says he talks about a muslim who is dishonest with another muslim is not one of us sometimes you find in our community someone sitting down reciting Salawat 24-7 and he has been dishonest with the whole community he has lied to people he has stolen people's money he does Qibah 24-7 about the whole community Imam says the community can never be built if people are dishonest to one another then number 3 Imam's third lecture on community the worst of you in the community is one whose existence is of no use to the community do you know what type of people these are? they'll come for a lecture and they'll leave and they'll complain they'll come for a program and they'll leave and they'll complain they sit outside and all they do is complain if you can do a better job Bismillah come let's see you do a better job know we're too busy Imam says the worst of people Imam Ali ibn Musa was a community built the worst of people is the one whose existence is of no use you say to him can you serve I'm busy can you help I'm busy then when you say to them what do you think is the problem in the community the community has so many problems what are you doing to solve them nothing else all they do is complain Imam Ali ibn Musa the third hadith about community third lecture the one of make sure that you are not someone who has no existence or use in the community and that's why then he would you would see him give a fourth lecture about to employ people in your community in which way you find Imam Ali ibn Musa all this period in Medina before he announced his Imam when Imam Musa ibn Ja'far was in prison Imam would walk past the field one day with his companion he'd look in the field he'll be like who's that over there his companion would say oh that's a worker he just started working today Imam said how much are we paying him his companion said at the end of the day Imam will pay him the companion said I saw Ali ibn Musa's Ali ibn Musa's his face become red he looked at me he said what did you say I said to him Imam at the end of the day we'll fix this wage he said how many times have I told you before someone works in the community fix their wage do not leave it until after they finished because they may be expecting an amount and then you give them less than that amount in our communities today when someone works for us we say at the end at the end we'll give you something the problem with at the end is that you don't know if the amount you're giving that person for cleaning the mosque for building the mosque you don't know if that person may be expecting more Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha said let's fix the wage then let them work and then never give them the wage you fix with them a sign of a follower of Al-Muhammad as he always gives a bit more than what he agreed you'll therefore find that in those early years Imam Ali ibn Musa Radha what would he do he'd be talking about building a community upliftment of his community then when Imam Musa was 35 years of age that's when he had to now come in the public for and I tell you Imam Ali ibn Musa came in the most difficult time shall I tell you why Benu Abbas were masters of the art of PR public relations Benu Abbas in public looked like the best leaders in Islamic history and the people could not see what was happening in private as if you look at many Muslim countries today many Muslim countries if you went to visit them in the Gulf you'll see the most grand mosques don't you and you'll see the most grand libraries and you'll see the most grand buildings if a non-Muslim saw that they'll say oh my god these Muslim empires magnificent look how modern it is they do not know about the corruption that exists deep down in that state do they? they don't they don't know the people who are being tortured they don't know about the people who are being hurt Imam Ali ibn Musa in his Imamate Benu Abbas were masters of public relations do you know what Benu Abbas were doing Benu Abbas began for example one of the best acts of public relations ever done they all began an institution called Bayt al-Hikma Bayt al-Hikma in English is the house of wisdom many non-Muslims praised Haroon al-Rashid and al-Ma'moon today they don't know about Imam Musa they don't know Imam Ali they see the outlier Ma'moon and Haroon al-Rashid began an institution called Bayt al-Hikma the house of wisdom that institution survived 400 years do you know what it was in that institution they would translate the works of the Persians into Arabic Persian literature Persian philosophy Persian astronomy Persian mathematics everything that the Persians had done they translated everything the Greeks had done they translated algebra where it came from Bayt al-Hikma the house of wisdom many Abbas this magnificent house which was a big translation library if you walked past that you'll be like may Allah bless Haroon al-Rashid may Allah bless al-Ma'moon why? because you're looking at al-Khawar ismi in there you're looking at algebra you're looking at the best of mathematics in astronomy people from the outside could not fault many Abbas but this is amazing they could not see what many Abbas were doing from the inside and Imam Ali ibn al-Mousar could see the inside and the outside you know what many Abbas what they were doing in the inside Haroon al-Rashid one day comes to his friend he says I want to ask you a question what are you willing to sacrifice for me he says I'll sacrifice my life for you he says he said I'll sacrifice my wealth for you he said I'll sacrifice even my religion Haroon said very well he said yes he said go in there with my jail warden open each door whoever you find in each door I want you to behead them لو جа لديهم حم Ed would go in declared prison of publicly magnificent behind the public killing of the sons of Ali he enters he enters first door opens 20 grand sons of beloved he comes with a sword 20 the next door 20 he comes out he says نحن نضع نفسهم ونضعها في محطة مرحلة ونضعها في محطة مرحلة هذا سيكون one incident another incident هارون رشيد سيكون في محطة هارون رشيد كانت مجردة مع يحيا بن عبد الله عبن الحسن كانوا يتعود مع بعضهم يساعدون لن يجدون لن يجدون أخر هارون رشيد ينقذون ينقذون بخداد ينقذون يجب أن تفهم الانتقال لأنه عندما يقولون لي لماذا عليبنا موسى الرضا يعملون مع المقموم يجب أن تفهم ماذا هو الانتقال جوجد بخداد ينقذون هارون رشيد يقول to him أنت تنقذون يقول yes يقول لماذا يقول أنني أساعدت بخداد مع يحيا بن عبد الله عبد الله عبن الحسن ولكن now I'm more powerful than him and I wish I hadn't signed that treaty so I could kill him you know what the chief judge did he put his hand down near his socks he took out a knife he said where's the contract he said here it is he said there's no more go do what you have to do the judges were in their pockets the palaces were in their pockets the prisons were in their pockets and do you know what then happened to the Imam as soon as the Imam announced his Imamate some of his own Shi'a decided that's not our Imam Imam موسى بن جعفر when he passed away had 67 witnesses that علي بن موسى الرضا is my successor yes how many witnesses 67 Imam had people Imam موسى بن جعفر had people who used to collect khums they'd go and collect khums for him amongst those people who collect khums and the khums collectors are always interesting people amongst those people who used to collect khums was زياد بن ماروان and علي بن أبي حمزة these people used to collect khums for Imam موسى بن جعفر these people collected lots of khums and sometimes when you collect a lot of khums you start forgetting Allah and you start thinking about yourself so what happened was زياد بن ماروان collected 70,000 Dina or gold coins and علي بن حمزة علي بن أبي حمزة collected how much 30,000 when Imam علي بن موسى announced his Imam he's already got an issue that بن عباس are in a position where they have swayed the public to believing in them on top of that now he's got an issue that زياد and علي come forward and said what they came forward because they had so much money يونس بن عبد الرحمن came up to them he said now علي بن موسى is the Imam the khums is to be given to him they said no يونس بن عبد الرحمن one of the great companions of the Imam with حسن بن محبوب يونس بن عبد الرحمن what did he say he said what are you doing this khums doesn't belong to you it belongs to the Imam they said listen يونس we are all khums collectors how much do you want us to give you so you remain quiet يونس بن عبد الرحمن said what are you talking about they said look at that amount of money we've collected from khums you really think we care about the Imam anymore way more concerned that the money is in our hands يونس بن عبد الرحمن said I will never go with a group of people like you they formed a Muslim sect which existed for a long time called الواقفية you know what الواقفية are the ones who done وقف وقف means you stop the ones who done وقف at Imam Musa بن جعفر they said Imam Musa بن جعفر was our Imam now he's gone into غيبة he is Imam Mehdi money isn't it when the money was in their hands the khums collectors they said why should we join علي ابن موسى علي ابن موسى الرضا the khums has to go back to him it's better that we make up a story that Imam موسى الكاظم went into غيبة and that one day he'll come back and we'll give the khums back to him do you see how difficult the circumstances were for Imam علي ابن موسى الرضا or no because sometimes people without knowing how difficult the circumstances are they question his judgment Imam علي ابن موسى الرضا بن عباس publicly look good his own Shi'a were not willing to come and follow him on top of that when Haroon el Rashid died then Haroon el Rashid sons had a bigger civil war with Imam علي ابن موسى الرضا is living at the time Haroon el Rashid had two sons one came from a wife the other came from a chess board sorry how does someone come from a chess board Imam narrates to us Haroon el Rashid had a wife you will know her Zubaydah Zubaydah and Haroon el Rashid used to enjoy playing chess this is masha Allah how great the Khulafa'wa they used to enjoy playing chess Haroon el Rashid when he's playing chess he tells Zubaydah Zubaydah if I win the chess match I'm going to dare you to do something when you do it she said yes and she said but if I win I'll dare you to do something he said yes the first chess game they had Haroon was victorious so he said to Zubaydah Zubaydah it's my day she said go ahead he said I want you to walk around the palace in the nude she said what they said in the nude walk around nude she said your soldiers are all around the palace and you know Haroon el Rashid only had about 11,000 servants in the house said walk around in the nude she said that's what you did yes everything off walk around come back sat in the chess game she started playing then she said I have now won I want to dare you to do something he said what is it she said do you know that cook we have in the kitchen he said which one she said he said the ugliest cook we have in the kitchen she said yes she said the one nobody even wants to look at her yes what do you want she said stay with her for one night so what do you mean one night so one night are you dead me and I did what you wanted me to do you do it one night from that one night المأمون was born which grandchildren of the man born in the Kaaba are in prison while the grandchildren of these matches are in kings Haroon el Rashid before he passes away says الأمين my son from my wife زوبيدة will be my successor المأمون can be governor of خراسان in Iran الأمين when Haroon el Rashid dies إمام علي ابن موسى رضا is around الأمين is around المأمون is around الأمين when he assumes power is meant to after him given to المأمون الأمين says I'm not giving it to المأمون المأمون came from a slave girl I came from an Arab mother so he said I'm going to give it to my son موسى المأمون heard this that was it and I tell you when two brothers don't like each other history has shown us they may be willing to kill each other حابيل طابيل يوسف his brothers أمين مأمون أمين said my son will succeed me not my brother المأمون launched a vicious attack under the command of طاهر ابن حسين they entered Baghdad they ransacked Baghdad he caught his brother and beheaded him المأمون now returns back to خراسان now he needs to cement his position it's not easy he wants to cement his position in power and he knows that what's just happened is not good for his rep so what does he say? he says I O people have come to lead you but I am more sincere than my brother الأمين بني عبس والله their language they can be so beautiful with their words and I am more sincere than my brother أمين and I'm going to make علي ابن موسى الرضا my success المأم علي ابن موسى الرضا is not in مشهد المأم علي ابن موسى الرضا is living happily where he is in مدينة المأمون who orders علي ابن موسى الرضا has to leave and has to come and has to be my success otherwise him and his tribe will all be beheaded امام علي ابن موسى الرضا leaves the land goes to do umrah after umrah to basra on his way to basra he stops at umrah and does the first ten nights Majalis for امام الحسين in umrah the first of the imams according to different narrations to have done ten nights for imam الحسين was imam علي ابن موسى الرضا and then from umrah he reached khurasan when he reached khurasan المأمون was sitting down he said welcome to my heir apparent welcome to my successor امام علي ابن موسى الرضا said I don't want to be your successor I'm not interested and it will not come to me anyway المأمون said no you are my successor I want to look after you امام علي ابن موسى الرضا said I don't want it he said why he said if Allah has chosen you to be the leader then it's not for you to give your shirt to someone else and if you've chosen yourself and if it doesn't belong to you then you're no one to give it to others if you say it doesn't belong to you then you're no one to give it to others المأمون said to the imam listen to me very clearly your grandfather علي ابن ابيط علي took part in a shura of six and umar said to them all six of them if you do not participate we'll behead you is my message loud and clear or no امام علي ابن موسى الرضا المأمون said الله has ordered us not to kill ourselves very well I will take up your position as what you call the heir apparent المأمون was delighted the coins he would put his stamp and the stamp in the name of امام علي ابن موسى الرضا on the coins the letters the poets all of them are to praise امام علي ابن موسى الرضا now some people ask the question how could امام الرضا take a position under المأمون how امام الرضا any respect for himself how could he take a position under someone like المأمون and do you know his own people came up to امام الرضا and said that someone came to امام الرضا and said to him how dare you claim to be the son of ابن علي and you take a position under المأمون see the arrogance of people you talk to an imam of اهل البيت like that and imams vision is wider than this he comes to me and he says that to him do you know what امام الرضا says امام says may I ask you a question who is greater a muslim or a mushrik the person says a muslim of course he says who is greater a prophet or a wasi the person says he says what if i tell you of a prophet who took a position under a mushrik what would you say he said who يوسف النقرآن he did not usif the quran he is a prophet of God and the leader of his country he was a mushrik did not useif take a position under a mushrik leader الشخص يقومون بإعلان أنه تراهب بالضحوة بيضبط مع المطاكب. او لا؟ كيف فعل الأمر؟ هل تعتقد أنني اريد ذلك؟ لا أريد أن أريد ولكن المشكلة تخبرونهم are rubber لنرى هذا. لماذا يجب أن ينادي him Рضا؟ بعض الناس قلت لأنهم يحببونهم ويحببونهم ويحببونهم معه العقبات لا؟ على الوقت يحببونهم ويحببونهم ويحببونهم معه العقبات لأنهم يتحدثونهم عن رضا لأنه كان يتحدث with whatever trial Allah has put him in that's why they call him a riba الراضي بالقدري والقبار he accepts whatever Allah has ordained you think it's easy for Ali ibn Musa to leave Madin and go and live alone with no family around him why do we in Ziyara say السلام عليك يا غريب الغرباء to you stranger of strangers in those days do you think there was anyone from Al-Muhammad living in Tawus in Mashhad and he has to leave Mashhad leave Imam ijawad when Imam ijawad was so young to go and live alone in Mashhad just to protect the school of Al-Bait and do you think he allowed Imam ijawad to get away with it no way Imam Ali ibn Musa رضا one day Imam ijawad says to him because now you are going to be my successor you have to lead Salat al-Aid Imam said you want me to lead Salat al-Aid he said yes he said the whole community will be out you have to lead Salat al-Aid Imam said but I am going to lead Salat al-Aid the way I lead it he said yes he said you got no problem you got no problem and the morning of Salat al-Aid the whole of Mahmoun's castle is waiting they are all wearing gold robes they are all wearing the best emeralds and diamonds on their fingers they are all waiting for Salat al-Aid to begin they are thinking where is Ali ibn Musa all of a sudden Imam Ali ibn Musa starts coming towards them Imam Ali ibn Musa was barefooted no shoes like رسول الله when he'd go to Salat al-Aid barefooted Salat al-Aid it's recommended to go barefooted to Salat al-Aid and when he'd walk barefooted he'll be like الله أكبر like رسول الله suddenly they say المأمون could not hear himself think because the whole of خراسان and shouting الله أكبر when the people would come to them they'd say can you give us a piece of advice this piece of advice was called the golden chain he said oh people do you want a piece of advice they said yes he said I heard from my father Imam Musa from his father from his father like the servants from his father Imam Hussein from his brother Imam Hassan from his father Ali ibn Talib from رسول الله from جبرايل from الله سبحانه وتعالى that la fortress whoever enters my fortress will be secure from my punishment they said to him is that it he said no he said I am one of the conditions of la ilaha illallah I am one of the conditions of la ilaha illallah you want to believe in la ilaha illallah I am one of the conditions of la ilaha illallah and that's why another narration someone comes up to him in front of him he says Ali ibn Musa there are two people come Imam Ar-Raza there are Ma'moons there they come they think Imam Ar-Raza is going to be silent because Ma'moon sitting there they come and they say Imam we have come from a long journey do we pray قصر أو قصر؟ إمام لُكسر بماني يقول أنه أنت who have you come for he says I've come to see you أنت who have you come for he said I've come to see a المأمون he said okay for the first one you have to pray قصر for the second one you might as well pray for because زيار of a man like مأمون why are you thinking about Islamic law you come and pray you come and talk to me pray قصر because you've come to do the زيار of علي ابن موسى رضا and that's why he himself says whoever does my زيار knowing that I'm a stranger I will intercede for him on the day of judgment you found therefore المأمون was getting frustrated علي ابن موسى I told the people I'm going to make him my successor now he's taking over everything so do you know what المأمون did? المأمون came and he said that I want to get the best scholars to finish علي ابن موسى رضا I'm going to get the Jewish rabbi and the Christian priest and the leader of the atheist community and the head of the other schools in Islam and I'm going to embarrass علي ابن موسى رضا once and for all so Imam علي ابن موسى رضا was told you have to come he said well he was told you have to come to المأمون's residence why the rabbi and the priest and the atheist and the leaders of other schools in Islam have come to debate you come to debate me why entire Muslim is in the Khalifa meant to be a Muslim why is a Muslim getting a Jewish rabbi and a Christian priest to debate me and why is the Khalifa getting an atheist but anyway let me go and try and answer the questions والله امام علي ابن موسى turn them around in circles in one day Christian priest you want to ask he said yes I hear you're a man of knowledge Imam رضا said go ahead feel free مأمون said to the priest priest finish him off show him he has no knowledge the priest says do you believe in Jesus Imam رضا said yes do you believe in Muhammad Imam رضا said yes he said what do you say about Jesus he says we say prophet Jesus prayed and fasted a lot the Christian priest said that's very very interesting and what do you say about Muhammad say we believe in the prophet Muhammad and we believe he prayed and he fasted more than the prophet Jesus he said we take the prophet Muhammad higher than the prophet Jesus because he prayed and fasted more than him the Christian priest said how dare you say that someone prayed more than our Lord Jesus to which Imam رضا replied if he is your Lord can you tell me who he was praying to that's the killer line if he is your Lord who is he praying to a Lord praying to a Lord how many Lords do we have the Christian priest said okay I think that's enough for me and he left Jewish Rabbi now look to the Christian priest he thought what am I going to do Jewish Rabbi said you believe in the prophets of God Imam رضا said yes of course we do Imam رضا said oh Jewish Rabbi do you believe in Prophet Musa عليه السلام he said yes he said why he said Prophet Musa عليه السلام he denied and the serpent which was a snake became a snake and the sea opened for him all of these miracles proof he was our prophet Imam رضا look to the me he said so anybody with these feats is a prophet he said no you just have to be close to Allah as well you have to be close to God so he said but do you believe in prophets other than Moses he said yes yes we do he said but did they do the same he said no they didn't do the same but they had miracles in their own time he said so your criteria is a prophet who has miracles which are different from the people of his time as a prophet he said yes he said so why did you reject Jesus son of Mary Jesus son of Mary walked on water and he raised their dead and make them alive and he cured the blind why don't you accept him as a prophet Jewish Rabbi said I think that's enough for me now the atheist came now the atheist was very arrogant so he came to Ali from Moses رضا and he said I don't want anyone to interrupt me I will finish this debate quickly he said Ali where and how is your God Imam رضا said why are you using the language of human to human with me he said what do you mean he said where and how are terms me and you use Allah is outside the dimension of time and space not be perceived by the senses the atheist replied if he can't be perceived by the senses that means we can never see him he said exactly the fact that you can never see him made you think he doesn't exist the fact that we could never see him made us understand how limited we were what a line Ali ابن موسى رضا and he went on and on and that's why I recommend all of you there is a book in تبليغ the biography of Imam رضا the debate is there Imam رضا and the Christians and the Jews and the Hindus and the atheists and the Zoroastrians not all the debate and you found that المأمون was embarrassed at that situation المأمون had no answer then المأمون what did المأمون do المأمون after that Imam رضا المأمون said this doctor and this doctor and this doctor one is a Hindu doctor the other is a Christian doctor they are all written about medicine Ali ابن موسى what do you have knowledge about medicine he wrote a thesis called the golden medical dissertation of عالمحمد do you know why it's called golden Imam رضا when he wrote it it was just called the medical dissertation المأمون and the doctors said we have never ever heard anyone talk about the anatomy of the human body with such precision المأمون said very well I don't want it written in ink I want it written in gold they wrote it in gold Imam Ali ابن موسى رضا therefore what did you find المأمون was seeing his popularity was on the rise المأمون knew he made a big mistake allowing Ali ابن موسى رضا to be announced as a successor now المأمون had to get rid of him and the way they get rid of these المأمون comes up to one of his companions and he says to him and I want you to hear this because Imam Ali ابن موسى رضا has many hadiths where he talks about Imam الحسين عليه السلام Imam Ali ابن موسى رضا do you know how they killed him المأمون asked someone listen to the disgusting mannerism of these people and what Imam رضا had to cope with you know what he says I went to Imam رضا and I saw the Imam and he was sad and he looked tired he said ابو السلط I miss Medina he said I miss the land of Medina I miss my family in Medina may Allah bless the soul of Imam الجوات Imam الجوات you find he says I miss Medina I miss my family I don't have anyone next to me and this man oppresses me but I am a river I am pleased with what Allah has given me pleased do you know what Imam أمون told his companion he said lengthen your fingernails his companion lengthen his fingernails for a couple of weeks when they got long enough he said now stick them in the pomegranate juice that pomegranate juice was full of poison and now take your fingernails out and put them in a different glass I will drink Imam الرضا will drink as soon as Imam الرضا drank he felt the pain go directly to his body they are juice so much poison in his food in that juice and you know what the narration say this narration hurt me so much when I read it about Imam الرضا every Imam of أل محمد every single one of them has one man in his mind and Imam الرضا the narration says that look after my ceremony shroud me you will see someone who will come and bury me Imam جواد would come and bury him and then Imam الرضا says to his companion remove all the carpets from my house and remove the mattress let me lie on the ground his companion wondered why remove the carpets why lie on the ground you have poison surrounding your body why lie on the mattress why Imam do you want to lie on this ground he said just for a few moments I want to feel what Aba عبد الله felt when he lay on the ground on the terms of محرام never forget the visit of Imam علي ابن مصرضا عليه السلام and know that say the cistan may Allah lengthen his life at a very young age became paralyzed and they took his body to the grave of Imam الرضا and it was there that he was cured by Allah سبحانه وتعالى and that's why in our visit we say السلام عليك يا غريب الغرباء but we say الحمد لله today Imam الرضا is not a stranger رسول الله is a stranger Imam الحسن Imam زين العابدين Imam البقر Imam الصادق those of you who haven't been to Jannah البقية go to Jannah البقية go and stand there and say oh Imam زبال محمد I will never leave you let's raise our hands brothers and sisters we pray to Allah سبحانه وتعالى to raise us with Imam علي ابن مصرضا to allow us to be amongst those who receive his intercession in this world and the hereafter tomorrow as you know is the night of the وفاة of Bibi خديجة عليها السلام we pray to Allah to allow us to honor her insha'Allah tomorrow we will be doing the biography of her daughter Bibi فاطم عليها السلام in honor of Bibi خديجة we will do the biography of Bibi فاطم tomorrow we pray to Allah سبحانه وتعالى to allow us to receive the intercession بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم اللهم إنا نرغبوا

Palmer, Hoyt, and this, uh, Scripps Howard people out there have, have promoted it a lot and they have, uh, no racial problems and they attribute it primarily, primarily to the fact that the Negro works hard, works long hours, takes a disproportionate amount of his money and puts it in his home and spends the rest of his life paying for it.
