WEBVTT 00:00:00.766 --> 00:00:08.429 What is happening in Libya and what happened yesterday is saddening. 00:00:08.429 --> 00:00:18.924 Fighting between family, friends, and fellow Muslims is a sad thing to behold. I never though things would get this bad. 00:00:18.924 --> 00:00:25.612 I hoped all our problems and grievances would be addressed peacefully and reasonably. 00:00:25.612 --> 00:00:38.015 We are Muslim brothers. Our prophet is Mohamed (pbuh). We should show mercy towards each other. 00:00:38.015 --> 00:00:55.675 A lot of Libyan blood has been spilt by this conflict. We are unto Allah, and unto him we shall return. 00:00:58.398 --> 00:01:04.026 Describe to us your immediate surroundings and situation. 00:01:07.369 --> 00:01:19.567 I don't know what to tell you. A number of people have besieged my home, 00:01:19.567 --> 00:01:28.205 and as yet remain outside the house. They have not yet entered. It is calm now. 00:01:28.205 --> 00:01:39.167 A few hours ago, there was heavy gunfire, and occasionally explosions in the immediate vicinity. 00:01:39.167 --> 00:01:48.267 But, for now, things are calm. I hope it stays that way. I hope everyone remains safe and peaceful. 00:01:50.295 --> 00:01:59.275 So you are in your home right now - have you been promised safety as long as you remain there? 00:02:00.790 --> 00:02:08.021 Yes, yes I have. Thank Allah. 00:02:10.728 --> 00:02:20.881 Do you see in that an extension of an olive branch? Do you think this is a genuine gesture? 00:02:23.499 --> 00:02:43.505 I don't doubt it. It is a reassuring gesture. Not only to me, but to all Libyan citizens. 00:02:43.505 --> 00:02:59.300 Thankfully, people know who Mohamed is, and they know of my good and honest conduct. 00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:09.767 They know I have fulfilled my humanitarian duty, and my duty towards Libya. 00:03:09.767 --> 00:03:17.433 (inaudible), but thankfully, I have many friends and colleagues. 00:03:17.433 --> 00:03:22.896 All thanks to Allah. Mohamed is good to the Libyans. 00:03:22.896 --> 00:03:33.867 I put great care and effort in my work, towards Allah first and foremost, and towards being a good citizen, 00:03:33.867 --> 00:03:42.308 and being good and obedient to my parents. I hope Allah grants me success, and I thank Allah. 00:03:42.308 --> 00:03:56.304 My situation can befall anyone. But by Allah's grace, I have avoided enmity and arrogance. 00:03:56.304 --> 00:04:02.762 I wish only well for all Libyans, in the present and future. 00:04:04.300 --> 00:04:13.100 You talked briefly about the sad state of affairs in Libya, and, without rubbing salt in the wound, 00:04:13.100 --> 00:04:19.833 may I ask you who is responsible for what is happening in Libya? 00:04:23.002 --> 00:04:31.906 Forgive me, but I am not in the best position to say. 00:04:31.906 --> 00:04:42.912 I am not involved in state security or government. What happens in the streets is apparent to all. 00:04:42.912 --> 00:04:56.900 The absence of reason, tolerance and broadness of mind is to blame. 00:04:56.900 --> 00:05:05.023 I think the situation could have been solved simply and peacefully. 00:05:06.733 --> 00:05:15.655 Mr Mohamed, the Libyan people are listening to you. If we were to ask you to speak from the heart, 00:05:15.655 --> 00:05:20.190 and to address them as they prepare for a new era - 00:05:23.559 --> 00:05:27.233 We are being attacked right now. 00:05:27.233 --> 00:05:30.354 This is happening around your house? 00:05:30.354 --> 00:05:35.052 Around my house - in my house. In my house. In my house. 00:05:35.052 --> 00:05:39.421 There is no god but Allah, and Mohamed (pbuh) is his messenger. 00:05:39.421 --> 00:05:43.723 Is this inside or outside your house? 00:05:49.386 --> 00:05:51.617 Oh God. 00:05:55.247 --> 00:06:02.341 We hope you are safe. Mr Mohamed? 00:06:03.813 --> 00:06:05.895 Yes, yes. 00:06:05.895 --> 00:06:08.967 Glad to hear you are safe. Was that exchange within your house? 00:06:08.967 --> 00:06:10.367 Yes, yes. 00:06:10.367 --> 00:06:12.733 Between who? 00:06:20.025 --> 00:06:25.500 Unfortunately, the sound is fading, and we appreciate your situation - who is firing? 00:06:25.500 --> 00:06:30.805 (inaudible) present within the house. 00:06:37.167 --> 00:06:41.706 Unfortunately, the call has been disconnected. 00:06:41.706 --> 99:59:59.999 We have been talking to Colonel Gaddafi's elder son Mohamed, who says he has been promised safety.
