00:00:29.000
But none for the soul. Well, the qurani app is about to show you your progress with your soul
00:00:34.120
Yes, that's correct. Not only does it encourage you to read it tells you how many verses you've read
00:00:38.560
How many pages you read how long you've been on it and best of all the hasana counter
00:00:42.360

00:00:50.720
We're here with a handsome guy. Dishan you're handsome as well, but it's a different handsome guy, yeah
00:00:54.300
Okay, he's got swagger man. He's making it happen. Yeah, so you gotta give me some lessons on my clothing
00:00:59.340
So yeah, it's a little bit windy. I know I'm gonna keep it like this
00:01:02.460
But we was doing a social experiment today guys and he came by just came to say hello
00:01:06.800
But he said something profound. So you said that you used to be do music
00:01:11.060
Yeah, I used to do music for like about three years
00:01:14.420
But um, I saw one of your videos about the me it was me and him. We did a video together
00:01:20.020
Yeah, I think it was and it was about chunks creating music and it just really like
00:01:29.860
There was something missing in it like I just felt like I wasn't I felt like music was kind of misleading
00:01:36.340
in a way because you got a lot of people talking about like drugs and alcohol and ladies and stuff like that
00:01:43.540
It just didn't make me feel I felt uncomfortable in a way
00:01:46.820
So I was like, you know what this this ain't for me in it like I gotta get closer to you know
00:01:52.580
You know my faith in it. So what was it in particular that made you think you know what I need to I need to change this
00:02:06.500
Did it have an impact because you see I believe music has an impact on your whole lifestyle
00:02:10.180
So for example, even al-qayyim said music and the quran cannot stay in the same heart
00:02:14.580
One would override the other so would you say when you was listening to music because in jahili when I used to listen to music
00:02:20.980
I'll be honest with you when I used to roll with like gangs and stuff like that
00:02:23.380
I used to listen to certain music before going to a fight
00:02:25.540
Because they were do you get what I'm trying to say it was intoxicating for me and I never did drugs
00:02:29.140
So do you think it had that impact on you in your lifestyle?
00:02:35.220
Listening to music is different to listening to the quran hundred percent
00:02:39.060
Like I feel like the quran when you listen to it even in your bad days, you just feel relaxed. Yeah, you feel like
00:02:46.900
Like you can you can do stuff in a sense you feel like yeah, you just feel like yeah, but when you do music
00:02:52.820
You just feel like I know some heavy yeah heavy like you
00:02:56.660
For example, I'm not gonna like drill drill artists for example day
00:03:02.500
Like why but I think I think that's one of the reasons why they're killing each other
00:03:06.260
I believe he plays a direct role if you're talking about yeah, I rolled up a man
00:03:10.900
If i'm listening to that brother, I want to do that if i'm listening to yeah, I shot mans
00:03:17.860
What do you want me to do? How can I be like here rob shot killed or let me go and save someone's life?
00:03:21.620
Um, yeah, it's kind of like brainwashing people especially the youth
00:03:26.180
They grow up to you know think like this kind of stuff is is normal in it
00:03:30.100
Yeah, and they want to look cool for like school and stuff. It's it's not the way
00:03:33.860
It's it's absolutely not the way and easy and he used to do music any of our last questions because we want to go
00:03:45.380
Yeah, you need to take us to it. We need to swagger because you know i'm trying it, but you know, but it's not working
