00:02:22.000 We're ready.
00:02:23.000 We're ready.
00:02:24.000 We're ready.
00:02:25.000 Yes, I know. You look scared.
00:02:27.120 We're ready.
00:02:27.600 We're ready.
00:02:34.600 That's dark.
00:02:36.340 I'm ready.
00:02:37.220 Ready?
00:02:37.780 Ready?
00:02:38.300 Ready?
00:02:39.560 Ready?
00:02:40.360 Oh, ready.
00:02:55.000 Okay, what's going through your head right now? 0.98
00:03:07.160 What the hell? 0.55
00:03:09.420 Is that it? 0.96
00:03:10.800 Okay, but isn't that us from the future?
00:03:13.520 Yeah.
00:03:14.960 Yeah.
00:03:15.560 Why are we so surprised?
00:03:18.220 What?
00:03:18.640 Because I thought I was going to see myself in the future.
00:03:20.860 That is you from the future.
00:03:21.640 I know, but I thought I was going to...
00:03:22.320 That can be you tomorrow.
00:03:24.500 So, do you ever think about death?
00:03:26.720 Sometimes, yeah.
00:03:28.200 Yeah, I suppose.
00:03:29.480 Do you ever think, who put me here?
00:03:31.060 Where am I going?
00:03:32.380 Yeah, I do.
00:03:34.080 Yeah.
00:03:34.820 Okay, we're just doing like a little social experiment.
00:03:37.000 We're Muslims, by the way.
00:03:38.360 Yeah?
00:03:38.660 We're not terrorists.
00:03:40.660 We're not born of anything.
00:03:42.020 So, basically, we just wanted to make people think,
00:03:44.300 because the scriptures that we believe,
00:03:45.440 God Almighty tells us that every social tastes death.
00:03:48.100 And also, there's...
00:03:49.180 I'll just give you one of these.
00:03:50.220 There's a card where there's a verse in the Quran,
00:03:52.380 which it says,
00:03:52.900 Did you think...
00:03:54.180 Did you want to read it for me?
00:03:55.200 Okay.
00:03:56.060 Did you think...
00:03:56.740 Yeah.
00:03:58.020 Did you think that we have created you without purpose
00:04:00.400 and that you would not return to us?
00:04:02.360 Is that you from the future?
00:04:03.500 No.
00:04:04.420 Are you telling me you're not going to die?
00:04:05.580 No.
00:04:05.960 I'm surviving the whole way, lad.
00:04:07.260 The whole way?
00:04:07.860 The whole way.
00:04:08.340 So, are you telling me tomorrow,
00:04:09.160 if a God forbid car hits you,
00:04:10.440 you're not going to die?
00:04:12.060 Nah.
00:04:13.340 Come on, mate.
00:04:13.840 Like, everyone's going to die.
00:04:15.080 Of course they are.
00:04:15.880 Okay.
00:04:16.100 Do you ever think about death?
00:04:16.940 Why are you showing me that anyway, lad?
00:04:18.360 That's what I'm saying.
00:04:19.100 Why are you showing me that anyway?
00:04:20.420 Okay.
00:04:20.960 So...
00:04:21.160 Why are you showing me that?
00:04:22.140 Yeah.
00:04:22.360 So, what...
00:04:22.660 How do you...
00:04:22.860 Don't put...
00:04:23.320 Get that mic up my face.
00:04:24.320 Why?
00:04:24.580 Get that mic up my face.
00:04:25.260 Why are you showing me that?
00:04:26.280 What's wrong with that?
00:04:26.940 Why are you showing me that for?
00:04:28.180 No, no.
00:04:28.360 What's wrong with that?
00:04:28.820 What do you mean?
00:04:29.120 What's wrong with that?
00:04:29.940 You're coming up to me saying all this.
00:04:31.060 Move that mic up my face, bro.
00:04:32.240 If I can put the mic up you, bro.
00:04:34.160 Listen, listen.
00:04:34.620 Spam me.
00:04:35.140 I don't care.
00:04:36.040 I don't care if I do an experiment.
00:04:37.600 Okay, okay. 0.99
00:04:37.880 What the f*** is that? 0.98
00:04:39.020 Is that you from the future? 0.99
00:04:40.500 Yeah, it will be.
00:04:41.680 Can that be you any second?
00:04:43.220 Yep.
00:04:43.940 Okay.
00:04:44.220 How often do you think about death?
00:04:47.660 Recently, with the last mum, quite a lot because my friend died.
00:04:50.060 Oh, really?
00:04:50.460 Yeah.
00:04:50.780 Wow, okay.
00:04:51.700 So, how did he die?
00:04:53.060 Have you heard of Cardiac Risking the Young?
00:04:56.040 Cardiac Risking?
00:04:56.640 Yes, buddy.
00:04:56.980 No, no, not Cardiac Failure.
00:04:58.740 There's a charity called Cardiac Risking the Young.
00:05:00.500 Oh, okay.
00:05:00.780 And it's basically...
00:05:01.680 He's 21, fully fit, played rugby and everything.
00:05:03.720 And just you can hit anyone and he died.
00:05:05.540 Wow.
00:05:06.040 See, see, that's the thing that we're trying to raise awareness to because a lot of times,
00:05:09.740 like, for example, what do you want to achieve in life?
00:05:12.080 Oh, I couldn't tell you that.
00:05:13.100 It's too much.
00:05:13.880 Let's see.
00:05:14.320 Give me one thing.
00:05:15.240 Give me one thing.
00:05:16.800 Finish my medicine degree.
00:05:17.780 You've got to be a doctor.
00:05:18.560 Sorry?
00:05:18.860 To be a doctor?
00:05:20.020 Qualify as a doctor.
00:05:20.840 Hopefully, you'll be a doctor and save lives.
00:05:22.240 Now, is that 100% guaranteed that you'll be a doctor?
00:05:25.700 It's not 100% guaranteed I'll be a doctor, no.
00:05:27.640 Is death 100% guaranteed?
00:05:29.100 Yeah.
00:05:29.780 Then why is it that as human beings, we follow something, a footpath, that is not 100% guaranteed,
00:05:34.720 but death is for certain, but we don't really think about death.
00:05:37.060 Why is that, do you think?
00:05:39.180 Is this you from the future?
00:05:41.480 Oh, my God. 1.00
00:05:42.360 What the fuck? 1.00
00:05:42.980 We're dead. 1.00
00:05:43.860 We're dead.
00:05:44.660 Okay.
00:05:45.240 Well, obviously.
00:05:46.260 So, do you think about death?
00:05:47.980 Yeah.
00:05:48.420 Yeah. 0.52
00:05:49.100 Are you ready for death?
00:05:50.240 No.
00:05:51.000 Why not?
00:05:51.360 If you want to live for long.
00:05:52.960 Okay, but this can be you tomorrow.
00:05:57.460 No, but it can be though.
00:05:58.540 This can be you any second.
00:06:00.300 So, like, do you know what I'm trying to say?
00:06:01.980 Yeah.
00:06:02.520 So, like, do you believe in God?
00:06:05.060 Yeah.
00:06:05.500 Yeah.
00:06:06.360 You guys all believe in God, yeah?
00:06:07.680 Yeah.
00:06:08.180 Okay, wow.
00:06:08.580 Have you read the Quran before?
00:06:09.720 We're Muslims, by the way.
00:06:10.560 We're just doing like a social experiment.
00:06:12.340 No?
00:06:13.000 Okay.
00:06:13.320 What do you think about the social experiment?
00:06:14.380 Has it made you think a bit more?
00:06:15.880 Yeah.
00:06:16.200 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, brothers and sisters, and dear friends.
00:06:21.120 May the peace and blessings of God Almighty be upon you all.
00:06:23.560 Obviously, as you can see, we did a death experiment today, and we had various reactions.
00:06:28.080 Certain people were upset.
00:06:29.020 Certain people found it funny.
00:06:30.420 Someone ran off, and we had even an individual that got a bit aggressive towards us.
00:06:34.520 And it's a depressing thing to see and know.
00:06:37.060 But what we need to understand is this is the bitter truth of life.
00:06:39.520 We live a beautiful lie, which is life, and we think that we're never going to die.
00:06:43.260 But unfortunately, the bitter truth is that we are all going to die.
00:06:46.700 Unfortunately.
00:06:47.500 And this is the reason why certain people have that reaction, because they do not think about death.
00:06:50.700 And what we need to understand is that why are we here?
00:06:52.680 Who put us here?
00:06:53.540 And where on earth are we going?
00:06:55.460 Now, obviously, I want to give a shout-out to Brother Kamal Saleh in Australia and Talk Islam.
00:07:00.880 And I would really, really appreciate for you guys to try this experiment in Australia and see how it goes.
00:07:06.920 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:07:07.560 And inshallah, you guys can share the rewards for it in the hereafter.
00:07:11.340 And also, Brother Mohamed Ziyarah.
00:07:13.560 As-salam to you, brother, both of you.
00:07:15.300 Inshallah, may Allah's blessings be upon you.
00:07:17.020 I want you to, inshallah, try this in Canada, Aki.
00:07:19.440 And see what kind of reaction you guys will get.
00:07:21.880 And see how they will kind of react to this.
00:07:23.900 And see if we'll get the same expression that we had today.
00:07:27.340 And obviously, I hope you guys benefited.
00:07:29.060 Please share, like this.
00:07:30.820 And inshallah, try to get Brother Kamal Saleh and Mohamed Ziyarah to see this video and get involved, inshallah.
00:07:37.140 And also, I want to thank Brother Oyun, the cameraman.
00:07:39.760 May Allah bless him for all the hard work that he put through.
00:07:42.660 Brother Nasser for helping us.
00:07:44.700 Imran, Musa, all the brothers who've been helping us to achieve this and put this into action.
00:07:49.800 That's about it from us.
00:07:51.080 And inshallah, soon we're going to have different experiments with different kind of topics and see how it goes.
00:07:56.380 May Allah's mercy and blessings be upon you all.
00:07:57.920 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
00:08:00.140 As-salamu alaykum wa barakatuh.
