Official video from UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi of Khamzat Chimaev post-fight interview (not translated from Chechen Russian)

Some are mistaking him for Islam Makhachev, another popular Muslim UFC fighter.
Towards the end of the UFC 294 fight interview, Khamzat Chimaev says a heart-felt message in Chechen.
The Chechen to English translation has been verified as real by several commenters.

English translation is:

“May Allah be pleased with all of you Chechens, May Allah strengthen you all.
Today a lot of you have come here and a lot of you are watching along at home.
President, may Allah be pleased with you, may He strengthen you.
Standing with you and fighting for you is not that hard (UFC).

By Allah, give me a rifle and let me go to Palestine.
Allah may be pleased with you
Wallahi, I haven’t been raised to be in here wearing shorts.
Do you Chechens not know the heart we have in our body?
If I get permission to fight for Allah, I’m ready to die for him.
I’m not as worried of dying as I am worried of my Muslim brothers. ”
