When You Are "Randomly" Selected By Airport Security | Muzlamic 

When entering the United States I was stopped by airport securtiy for an hour cuz of my name. I was 13.

I have Muslim friends who whisper "see you in a couple hours bro", when they see security coming down the line. Any sign of a Muslim name or a Muslim man with a beard and you're bound to experience this at least once in your life.

“We’ll send you the next brown boys” 😂😂

I swear those 2 duds are kings, they literly made it so fun, thank you for showing the reality in an entertaining way.

They asked my late mother who was in a wheelchair, if she had military experience. She was 70 and in a wheelchair! Only the US can be that paranoid and stupid.

Mentioning The new lamp and the color of the walls was amazingly done!!!!

My name is Abdul Hameed and every time I come to Manchester ( where I live ) & I’ve to wait for at least 1 hour to check my full bio 😄 I kinda know the whole staff in all terminals 😅🔨

During the troubles in Northern Ireland, as an Irish person, I never passed through English customs without being taken aside interrogated and completely searched, literally every time without fail. I asked why they are always searching me, they said guess, I asked is it because I'm Irish and they said yes, simple as that. At least they aren't allowed to shoot us anymore just for speaking our native language as they used to when they were trying to eradicate our language, traditions and cultural heritage back in the day.

This actually made me feel so much better. I just got “randomly checked” at the airport again for the 3rd time in a country I’ve been living in for 20 years now. I’m Indian, very brown and Christian. It’s a lot better to laugh at it then to go down that spiral of resentment :)

Went to Australia for a visit. Had my beards shaved before that. All went well. After a month, grown my beards, and time to go home. Suddenly, all security checkpoints did some 'random checks' on me.

Hi all! If you read through the comments you'll notice a lot of people talking about Northern Ireland. I'm a 15 year old Irish girl from Northern Ireland and although my parents were discriminated and attacked, I have never had to experience such horrible things. My generation of Irish teenagers are living proof that things do get better, and I pray that one day you and your children will know the same ease, comfort and safety that I do!

As a Muslim I’m conflicted on the one hand it’s very funny but on the other hand it’s the reality that we as Muslims go through on a daily basis

A Muslim girl who was student here. I'll never forget the stare I got when the customs dude was looking at my books then literally froze at the only Arabic book I had among a pile of French and English ones! 😂😂😂 To be fair, I was never checked "randomly" and even amid the aftermath of a terrorist attack in Belgium, people got their stuff checked without discrimination and I was never checked because of my "student mule" demeanor,always loaded with books, it was as if the cops were like "nah,let her keep that pile of books", even my dad ( muslim too) told me "no, what they did was wrong, they should check you out too, that's a serious security breach in case someone was hiding something under a pile of books!" ,Well, okay dad,thank you for the trust! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

custom protection: "can i check your phone gallery?" me: "sir check out this latest episode of Kobayashi Dragon Maid"

Really sorry to see that the things happen with muslims i am a hindu (india) but respect all religions

once an old white guy who was a retired pilot gave me a piece of "friendly" advice at the airport to don't leave my luggage unattended because I look Arab and hence suspicious. I thanked him and told him that I am not an Arab, I am Pakistani. and he said, "well, you all are the same, aren't you?"

I was stopped at a US airport and taken to secondary screening on a flight from Manchester to San Francisco. I was the only coloured person from a line of white people. guess what? I was the only muslim....

“I didn’t say brown he said it”😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This was actually funny. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

excellent! they shouldn't have told him their flight was the following day. they may "randomly" delay them again!

Props to you guys for making it funny while still highlighting the reality of the situation for everyone.

I'm Muslim Canadian, was stopped and searched when I returned to Canada after a few years of being out, lmao, I can relate xD

Meanwhile at the US Immigration: Officer: Name? Person 1: Abraham Joseph Officer: Pass... , Officer: Name? Person 2: Ibrahim Yusuf Officer: please come with me 😡 Idiocy leads to fear of something which actually doesn't has nothing to be feared of

Dude! Im white af! But have an arab last name! Always, always stopped. Never realised till i told my arab family and friends!

Went through a 4 hour check because i was from Egypt and my family were talking in Arabic

My dad got so tired of being racially profiled at the airport that one time he started stripping just to fluster TSA. I pass as caucasian but my name doesn't so I get profiled as well. I'm not quite as into public nudity as my dad was, though.

I am not even muslim, or from the middle east. Yet because of my beard and my brown color I am always "randomly" selected, it got funny once in Miami when I went with my mom, who speaks broken english but is white and blonde, she gets to skip the line while I get patted down.

😂😂😂 they actually checked in earlier ready for this.

Peace be to you all (AsSalama'laikum)! Greetings, from America! This was brilliant! Often times, humor🤣 is the best way to dissuade anger😠! Keep up the great work you are doing, brothers!😊❤☝🏾️🕋

This happens a lot, never happened to me but I think this sketch summed it up perfectly

I have been stopped and told I wasn’t getting on the flight to Moroccan.My grandma was on her death bed and die the next day. Schedule 7 is overused.

They stopped and took my passport in when I was like 7 lol.

Hahaha we'll send you the next brown boys 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣kakakaka

I’ve been going to the US for about 20 years sometimes I’ve spent up to four hours going through this after a 11 hour flight. Strange thing is when I go with my attractive wife the TSA never seem to have a problem with me , my name or anything really even though she has a different surname.

0:13 the lamp wasn't there before, Lol already 😂 😂

😂😂😂😂 humor is the best remedy against racism 💪🏽

I'm black I flew to Aussie once back in 2009 and was stopped by security they brought out sniffer dogs they thought I was bringing in drugs I was only 13. Sadly a True story

This has been done in many different ways but this is one of the funniest

We randomly selected the Irish a lot, once, too, for some reason.

The confidence level. Lol Who's doing the interrogation?

Nice that they were able to put a humorous twist on what is such an awkward situation. British humour is so the best.

This depresses me when I go away and it's no joke, breaks my heart frm uk 🇬🇧

Ofc I’m watching this before I go on my flight

I did miss my connecting flight in Chicago O'hare international airport on Aug of 2013. They were holding me up for 5 hours from 4 pm to 9 pm. My connecting flight was at 9 and I reached Chicago at 3:30. It was 1 hour 40 min connecting fligth turned into 10 hours bus travel.

Went to Europe last year. Got randomly stopped and checked at the Paris, Barcelona and Rome airports. I mean those were the only 3 airports I went to but I guess it's still very random, right guys?

I am a a Muslim convert. A year and a half prior to shahadah I started wearing hijab turban style and wearing dresses. It was the first time in my life being pulled over for a pat-down by TSA (not to mention I was military at the time and used my military ID as my form of identification with my ticket). The lady did a pat-down of my turban to see if there was anything in there. Two years ago, wearing a niqab as a Muslimah I went on a plane and this time I had my laptop screened for a bomb. Next month I will be traveling out of the US for the first time (as an adult) and I wear full black niqab, jilbab, and gloves. I am seriously looking up all the TSA loops and planning to arrive SUPER early for my flight just to ensure I make it on time. I have Muslim sisters who wear niqab and who have been pulled into a room for hours before, and even detained by ICE for a few days, despite being a US citizen.

This was hilarious! I'm a Muslim and I DON'T get checked because I 'look' very western in terms of my appearance and my name is Shah. I remember when I was in the queue with 3 of my Muslim friends and I was standing in the middle from them, they were all "randomly" selected for security check apart from me once the security checked our passports. After a minute I clocked that all of my 3 friends have the name 'Mohammed' (I know them by their other names) written on their passport and I don't.

These brothers should have their own tv show.

"I didn't say brown" 😂

Random person: how many times have you watched this? Me: *Y E S*

HAHAHA I love when people can have a sense of humor about their stereotypes.

I swear this happend to me in Manchester airport an they took my phone coz I was going turkey with 11 members of my family.Had a good time enjoyed myself an then they gave me my phone back on arrival but it was stupid

“We’ll send in the next brown boys😂😂😂

Ali official been waiting for you brav

Really puts things into contrast. This one time I landed at the airport and I left my wallet on the plane. I only discovered it at the passport control and I told them "I must've left it on the plane. I don't have any documents on me". And the police officer looked at me and goes: "Well your English is good and you look pretty European to me so you're free to go"

I was travelling from Landon to loss angels, In the airport i was separated from line and taken to a separate room where, i was told it is random check - stand up on table, take off shoes 👟 , check full body, bag 💼 etc.

Seems that I have to check-in and head to immigration 9 hours early in order to not miss my flight in case I'll be traveling.

Enquired my all documents, identity and purposes because of my Muslim name only 😂 LMAO ! What a intelligent security 🤣

that was magnificientlamic, & hillariousamic

Lmao I shaved my beard right before I went to NY and still got stopped because of my name. Also I was 17 and like 5”10 at the time at about 53kg xD big threat I am

Yea. My first time to america i was "randomly" inspected too. Me and my sister. Their question was. Why was my visa registered 2 years prior and i only decided to use it later. I mean what. That was it? Im suspicious because i didnt waste my money asap going to america? 90% of the people with me were chinese and muslim/middle eastern looking individuals. Im filipino.

Can't stop laughing an can't stop bashing the like button. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👍👍👍

Try having place of birth: Syria - in your passport. I don’t need a home alarm anymore cos my house is always being watched by mi6

The new Britain is very cool! Thank you BBC Three.

Plssss do more muzlamic or south asian vids. They r so funny

This was actually good.. LOL 😂

When i studied in the UK, i used to get random checked everytime at the airport

This is a great black comedy~full of humor, full of fun, while reveals things that made us frustrated.

Saw these brothers at the human appeal comedy take over,, both very talented masha2allah

I’m not even muslim. I’m Indian American and im a hindu. I get “randomly” stopped at the airports all the time. So often that I thought everyone had to go through it. It wasnt until I travelled with my white friends when they told me that they never had to go through that.

Hey guys! Brown guy here 🙋🏽‍♂️ I was travelling to USA and I had my permanent resident card. I was selected for 'random checking' and there was another chinese lady with a US passport. She looked at me and started crying, "why me I have a US passport" 😂😂

I can fully relate to this. I always get stopped at the airport and I’m a white, unassuming, Christian male.

I have no idea why this came on my "recommended" viewing. I'm lily white, 67 year old pensioner. I'm probably a rascist according to someone somewhere. I watched this twice. It was very funny. It brightened my morning a lot.

Gunnerblog's killing it man. Love the guy.

THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY DAD EVERYTIME

Gd sarcasm on west ..hahhahah.love u guys from Pakistan

I have been stopped at Heathrow in 2017 coming back from holiday to see my family just because it was suspicious to them they had no proof against me I never been in any trouble or broken the law in any way in my life apart from car fine tickets.. Yet the immigration officer I told her give me a reason she couldn't and later she said its the metropolitan police who are holding you and I said call them they came out asked few questions and let me go.

Was volunteering with some folks who’s parents came from Iran when they left they got “randomly” pulled aside and swabbed by tsa while they were going through security. Unfortunately they had done some gardening work prior to leaving and one of the things that those swabs look for is phosphorus which is commonly found in fertilizer. That was not a good day for them.

THATS ALL I NEEDED THANKS GUYS FOR THIS

this reminds me everytime I travel back to the state's. and of course my flight is already gone........

😂😂😂🤣😂🤣👍🏻🇬🇧 Keep on selecting randomly. If we have nothing to hide ..... PS. Can people wear balaclavas when alighting? Asking for a friend.

every single time i’ve flown to ireland i get tested for drugs😂 i don’t know why, it’s ben at least 10 times now

I remember being in the airport for a flight to bratislava. Huge group of middle Eastern passangers. My girlfriend and I went through security and sat at the gate. We watched every single middle Eastern person, big family/friend group all get asked to accompany a security person off somewhere. They all came back to the gate eventually but it got so bad we were sat there guessing (rightly) who would be checked. Not one single white person (us included) was stopped. Every. Single. Arabian Muslim was stopped.

The way they said " he is a nice guy " 😁😁😁

It's funny to watch. I even chuckled. Sadly the reality is far from the comedic sketch shown here. Travelling is already such a stressful situation as it is with checking in, bag weigh ins/ searches and catching a flight on time that to put schedule 7 into the mix immediately puts you in a foul mood. Imagine having spent so much on flights, accomodation etc and then you miss your flight because of a 'random' check. It's embarrassing, demeaning and down right intrusive in my opinion. I don't know what's worse to be stopped outbound or inbound, both would completely ruin a holiday. I feel like it makes Muslims feel victimised and quite ironically may place a resentment in people who are stopped and questioned for hours on end. Being treated as a suspect can make one feel stigmatised, alienated and discriminated against thus creating a culture of fear and suspicion against the government. You have the right to leave/refuse legally if they don't charge you but if you do it's seen as non-compliance. On the other hand, from the perspective of national security I understand their reasoning. However it is impossible to measure the success of preventing 'possible' crimes of terror through this procedure. The bottom line is SOME Islamic views do clash with the values of this country. There are clear cut lines about homosexuality and things like the foreign policy supplying weapons to murder people in Muslim lands. Any educated Muslim will tell you that but does it mean we don't follow and abide by the laws of the land we live in? Of course not. Does that mean we crucify homosexuals or spread hatred? Of course not. There is no crime in having these opinions and beliefs but to utter it aloud feels like putting a target on your back. You hear about all these prevent strategies supposedly trying to provide a 'safe space' for Muslims to voice their opinions and have them challenged but do we really think that these spaces are available after such treatment at a sudden, rather intense level? Any misguided fool who ponders the thought of breaking the law has chosen to live here, they have chosen to benefit from the life in this country۔ If they don't like the laws they are more than welcome to make Hijrah (migrate). No one is stopping them. As a government they reserve the right to refuse you coming back should they feel you are a threat. This is not a Muslim country. To summarise, more research needs to be put into Schedule 7 stops, it's intent, implementation and impact need to be reviewed.

This is a very realistic video! Thanks. The way they are being treated is insanely not good.

I sure had to wear a polo collar t-shirt and jeans at the Heathrow Airport from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia just to clarify myself as I'm a follower and a good servant of my white masters! Ignore my name and my passport, lol 😂...

😆 hilarious. Flying to the U.S for the first time and watching this. Although I’ve flown quite a bit and never had issues let’s hope Boston boys are cool as the rest of the world :-)

Oh man you brought back old memories,I went through this shit a lot in my younger days.atleast they have stopped pulling me know because I am in my late forties

*_You've been selected to a random search_* Glory to Arstotzka.

Lol it ain't easy being a middle eastern travelling 💯

Love this!!

Pdf copy. That's the best. I used to have these random searches every time I traveled. Alhamdulilah it finally stopped after I moved to a Muslim city for good

wow..damn amazing..the best seriuos content to be spread..and done perfectly in a way easy for others to understand and digest behind the humour

Yikes y'all need to stop taking this so seriously. It's a sketch!!

Personally as Muslims, we go through this treatment almost everyday . It hurts and breaks heart that sometimes if people are not talking they say it through eyes or gestures ... Sad that this continues and more sad people doing this now feel proud when they commit act of descimonation

Forget customs. I got selected for checking at the train station. I was going to school!

I love how comedy can tell the truth even people don't want to listen to the truth straight up.

LOLS . . . Well done. Good point made. Keep staying creative.

When I was 12 me and my family got searched including my 6 year old sister because her earrings were beeping through the machine 😳
