The young man, Islam Saber, added: The sheikh became very angry because I mentioned his area of residence. I do not know why, and I preferred not to respond to an error with an error. It was not my intention to belittle the sheikh by mentioning his area of residence and all the people of the Qur’an in my head.
Islam Saber continued, “I was respectful of the people in the place who invited me, and my upbringing does not allow me to respond to anyone, and there was an old misunderstanding on the part of the sheikh who made him do that and take a certain idea from me and refuse to let me present it, but this is my job and everyone has his own job.. I thank everyone who stood by me and supported me in the video incident.
