Transcript

00:00:00.000 Come on, come on down it, come on Ty, I'll feed you, down it, down it, down it, I've never seen you fast before, I'm a bad one, I'm a bad one, but I am a Muslim.
00:00:16.400 Well the Qur'anly app is about to show you your progress with your soul.
00:00:20.240 Not only does it encourage you to read, it tells you how many verses you've read, how many pages you've read, how long you've been on it and best of all the Hassanah counter.
00:00:26.900 Download the Qur'anly app now and have a Ramadan with Allah's book like you've never had before.
00:00:56.900 It's a bit like emotional in the context where it reminds me of a companion of Qadnu Ayman radiallahu anh and he was someone who was known to have an addiction towards alcohol.
00:01:07.700 That was his shortcomings but we're going to learn lessons from both of them.
00:01:10.380 Let's get straight into the video inshaAllah and see this because I think it's going to really melt your heart inshaAllah.
00:01:15.000 So here we go, here's a video inshaAllah of this brother in Arsenal TV.
00:01:18.880 Let's go.
00:01:20.880 I'm a bad one, but I am a Muslim.
00:01:34.800 When's the last time you went to?
00:01:36.940 I'm getting shivers.
00:01:37.840 You know why I'm getting shivers?
00:01:39.520 I don't know if you feel the same way as I do.
00:01:41.980 But for him to look on the floor and be like, the guy's like, I don't see you fasting.
00:01:46.320 And he's like, yeah, I'm a bad Muslim, but I am a Muslim.
00:01:50.000 That touched me.
00:01:51.200 Wallahi, that really touched me because you can see the sincerity in his eyes and the love he has for Allah and his messenger.
00:01:58.780 But let's carry on, let's carry on because it's a very important reminder.
00:02:02.680 When's the last time you went to the mosque?
00:02:04.220 Long time, years ago.
00:02:05.440 Oh wow.
00:02:05.800 That's terrible.
00:02:06.540 I don't drink though.
00:02:07.580 I do not drink.
00:02:08.180 You don't drink?
00:02:09.200 SubhanAllah, it was a long time ago, it's terrible.
00:02:11.880 I don't eat pork, obviously other meats are available.
00:02:15.360 Well, it wouldn't be if you're a vegetarian or whatever you are.
00:02:17.660 No, that's true.
00:02:18.100 You're not going to eat that, are you?
00:02:21.960 Now this is just one part.
00:02:22.960 So he's making it very clear to them that he's a Muslim, yeah?
00:02:25.380 And you can see, subhanAllah, like I said, brother, sister,
00:02:27.240 wallahi, it's, it's, you know, the approach that we should have towards other believers should be nothing but love, you know?
00:02:32.900 But to see him where he's putting his head down and be like, yeah, I'm a bad Muslim, but I am a Muslim, to me that touches my heart.
00:02:39.280 Wallahi, to me, anyways, but what's really disturbing here is what happens next.
00:02:46.400 Let's see.
00:02:47.200 Come on.
00:02:48.320 Come on, down it.
00:02:49.400 Down it.
00:02:50.100 Come on, Ty.
00:02:50.960 I'll feed you.
00:02:52.000 No, thank you.
00:02:52.880 Down it.
00:02:53.640 Down it.
00:02:54.700 Down it.
00:02:55.500 Down it.
00:02:56.540 Down it.
00:02:57.400 Come on, Ty.
00:02:58.260 No, no, thank you.
00:02:58.880 All right, do at least half.
00:02:59.960 No, thank you.
00:03:00.960 Why not?
00:03:01.660 Because I don't drink alcohol.
00:03:02.840 Come on.
00:03:03.560 No, thank you.
00:03:04.140 I don't drink alcohol.
00:03:06.880 Come on, Ty.
00:03:07.700 It's your profit.
00:03:08.140 I appreciate the sentiment.
00:03:08.640 No, no, no.
00:03:09.320 I don't drink alcohol.
00:03:10.860 Don, Robbie, what are you saying?
00:03:11.980 I'll drink.
00:03:14.160 Now, that is disgusting.
00:03:16.000 You know, you know very clearly he's a Muslim.
00:03:17.620 To go there and down it, down it, like a little pirate clown.
00:03:21.200 Down it, down it.
00:03:21.940 And you can see that they are actually mocking this guy.
00:03:25.140 Yeah?
00:03:25.460 They're literally not taking this guy seriously.
00:03:26.960 They're taking him for a mug.
00:03:28.220 Yeah?
00:03:28.400 That's what they're doing.
00:03:29.320 And even though they're taking him for a mug, he's somebody who obeys Allah and his messenger.
00:03:32.560 He could have easily fall and feel inferiority complex and be like, let me fit in.
00:03:36.540 He's like, no.
00:03:37.380 And this is someone, brothers and sisters, who you know who it reminds me of?
00:03:41.120 It reminds me of a companion called Nuayman radiallahu anhu.
00:03:45.720 And you know he was somebody who was known for his humor, known for the jokes that he would make.
00:03:51.880 And he also had an addiction with alcohol.
00:03:53.620 But brothers and sisters, once he went to the marketplace and bought some food, and he liked the taste of it so much, he ordered it for the message of Allah.
00:04:03.140 He ordered the person who owned the shop to take some to the message of Allah.
00:04:07.400 When the person took it to the message of Allah and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ate it, the man said, can you pay me?
00:04:13.580 And he said, pay you?
00:04:14.540 He said, well, yeah, because Nuayman told me to send this to you.
00:04:19.560 And when they called Nuayman and they said, look, what's going on?
00:04:22.160 You sent this to us, the message of Allah.
00:04:24.160 And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is eating and he's saying, Nuayman, you're sending this as like a gift.
00:04:27.720 But they're asking me for the money.
00:04:29.280 He said, oh, message of Allah, you know, you have to pay.
00:04:31.100 You know, I liked it and I wanted you to have it as well.
00:04:33.400 But does it mean I'm going to pay?
00:04:35.020 The thing was the sincerity in the context where he wanted it for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, even though he didn't have the money to pay for it.
00:04:39.820 And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam laughed about it so much.
00:04:41.880 But you know what's really profound about this companion is that he fought in the Battle of Badr and Khandaq and Uhud, if I'm not mistaken.
00:04:49.820 He fought, but he had a weakness with alcohol.
00:04:54.560 One day, I think he was flogged once or two times.
00:04:58.640 Okay, we know the punishment for drinking alcohol.
00:05:02.920 If I'm not mistaken, Umar al-Makattab did 80 lashes because he believed that the one who drinks alcohol is more prone to slander.
00:05:09.120 And the lashes for slander is 80 or 100, if I'm not mistaken.
00:05:12.600 Sorry, it might be 100, yeah.
00:05:15.060 I think it's 80 for zina is 100, sorry.
00:05:17.680 So yeah, so now look at this.
00:05:19.820 On the third time, Umar al-Makattab was so angered that these guys keep doing this.
00:05:23.360 And the message of Allah, imagine the message of Allah.
00:05:25.380 And he's doing it.
00:05:25.940 And he said, may Allah curse you.
00:05:28.800 He said, may Allah curse you.
00:05:30.180 The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, just imagine today if that happened.
00:05:33.100 These super, these super, these individuals, yeah, some arrogant people who are in today's time.
00:05:38.180 Wallahi, this guy's misguided, this guy's an evil doer, this guy's this and that.
00:05:43.840 Look at the messenger of Allah.
00:05:46.560 You know what he did?
00:05:47.280 Did he stop it?
00:05:48.140 Did he say, no, don't say, may Allah curse you?
00:05:52.620 Did he say that?
00:05:54.140 I mean, did he say, no, carry on saying, may Allah curse him?
00:05:56.500 No.
00:05:57.120 He said, don't say that to him.
00:05:58.360 Because he loves Allah and his messenger.
00:06:00.380 This brother on Arsenal TV, if you guys know it, send this video to him.
00:06:03.880 Because I can see from his eyes the love he has for Allah and his messenger.
00:06:08.380 Yeah, I can see the akhi.
00:06:09.940 May Allah bless you and keep you firm and get you closer.
00:06:12.220 But anytime you have doubts, remember, Nuhayman radiallahu anhu, he had an addiction as well.
00:06:17.420 Yeah, and subhanAllah, and not that I'm saying you have addiction, alhamdulillah, you don't drink it.
00:06:20.160 But what I'm trying to say is that you love Allah.
00:06:22.260 I know you're saying I'm a bad Muslim.
00:06:23.740 We are all bad.
00:06:24.940 We are trying our best to get close.
00:06:26.320 All of us.
00:06:27.540 So subhanAllah, brothers and sisters, this is what it teaches you.
00:06:29.940 It teaches you to have mercy towards the believers.
00:06:32.280 And I wanted to do this video because it really touched my heart.
00:06:35.120 And I'm going to end on this note.
00:06:36.380 Brothers and sisters, the Prophet, peace be upon him, said,
00:06:38.840 A companion, a good friend, yeah, is like, for example, brothers and sisters,
00:06:45.020 if you go to a blacksmith, yeah, a bad friend is like somebody who's a blacksmith.
00:06:48.980 When you go there, even if you don't do nothing, even if he doesn't give you any harm or tells you to do evil stuff,
00:06:53.640 you standing there, you are going to be left with marks and smell, the least.
00:07:00.060 And the good friend is that, the one who sells musk.
00:07:03.320 Even if he was not to tell you to do anything good, the fact that you remain around him,
00:07:09.460 you will end up smelling good.
00:07:11.940 The benefits that it brings.
00:07:13.660 So my dear brother, change this Arsenal TV, whatever it may be, your friends or companions,
00:07:17.620 because you can clearly see they have no respect to you.
00:07:21.020 And that's about it, brothers and sisters.
00:07:22.280 Hope you guys benefited.
00:07:23.600 And one last message to my brother here.
00:07:26.200 Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the Qur'an,
00:07:28.400 Audhu billahi min ash-shaytanir-rajim.
00:07:30.120 Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim.
00:07:31.400 Say, for those who organisms is cortar their blood
00:07:42.900 And that's about it, Allah is shares in the его body.
00:07:46.260 �יallahu wa ta'ala da'alacieżin.
00:07:48.720 Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir-Rahmanir.
00:07:58.920 Oh my servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not ever despair the mercy of your Lord.
00:08:12.200 Because your Lord is most forgiving, most merciful.
00:08:16.620 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
