00:00:00.000 I think one of the people on Facebook told us about this
00:00:29.600 Shisha bar, we came here to just give a bit of relief, but brother Ajme, can you describe what happened?
00:00:34.600 Okay, what does it look like?
00:00:36.600 It looks like a lounge fam
00:00:38.600 Yeah, but does it look open to you Ajme?
00:00:40.600 Definitely, it's closed, definitely it's closed
00:00:42.600 That's what I was expecting, yeah
00:00:43.600 The Ustad
00:00:44.600 So basically it's closed
00:00:45.600 The Ustad has knowledge today
00:00:46.600 Brothers and sisters, I think Ajme made a specific dua, so the Shisha Lounge is closed down
00:00:50.600 Lounge the Shisha Lounge
00:00:52.600 I came across Shisha bar at the corner on the other side of Edgeway Road
00:00:57.600 I came across a few sisters and a few brothers
00:01:01.600 I just talked to them in general, when we talk about this kind of stuff
00:01:05.600 I don't like to feel like we're the good guys and then the bad people, do you get it?
00:01:09.600 I've just given them the same sister look, wish they had otherwise, etc, etc
00:01:13.600 And they took it, they were really happy, they were okay
00:01:16.600 They were like, yeah, thank you Ajme, thanks for sharing with us, do you get it?
00:01:18.600 They were accepting in a way, do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:01:21.600 So what we're gonna do is, we're not here to be haram policing, or go there, or we're the good guys, you're the bad guys
00:01:30.600 That's not our objective and aim, and you know, that's a bit of an arrogant thing to do, even if we were to do that
00:01:34.600 May Allah protect us from that
00:01:35.600 We're here to just give advice to the brothers and sisters, with these cards, inshaAllah, as a benefit to them
00:01:40.600 So maybe, they might be reminded, because at the end of the day, a lot of people think, shisha, etc, oh, it's not a big deal
00:01:45.600 But these kind of environments is the leading cause for major sins like zina, drugs, etc, etc 1.00
00:01:50.600 So today, alhamdulillah, we're going to walk up and down, give some leaflets, talk to some brothers and sisters, inshaAllah
00:01:54.600 And inshaAllah, everybody will be benefited, I'll keep you updated really soon
00:02:02.600 You're giving up there quickly
00:02:04.600 What we're doing, what we're doing, quickly, quickly
00:02:06.600 Quick, quick, I'm gonna give out cards, man
00:02:08.600 Speak louder
00:02:09.600 Basically, it's a bit sad, isn't it?
00:02:11.600 Like, you're seeing people that just smacked out a whole Ramadan 1.00
00:02:13.600 Yeah, there's no...
00:02:14.600 They're not even partying hard, but they're partying enough for it to be a sin in it
00:02:17.600 We're just gonna head to the other side of Edway Road
00:02:19.600 Because there's a couple of shisha bars there
00:02:21.600 And we'll keep you updated soon, inshaAllah
00:02:23.600 We've been furious because we're looking forward to it
00:02:28.600 And if a man wants to answer what it will be on Implein
00:02:32.600 Al-Fatihah 0.55
00:03:02.600 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
00:03:09.280 Brothers and sisters, how are you guys doing?
00:03:11.920 Eid Mubarak
00:03:13.140 Allahumma taqabbal minna wa minkum
00:03:15.720 Brothers and sisters, I'm asking you guys sincerely for the sake of Allah
00:03:20.020 Just lend me your ear for about 3 to 5 minutes
00:03:23.960 When a person is about to die, what he says, what she says just before she dies
00:03:29.260 Is his most important wish
00:03:31.280 So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam 0.61
00:03:34.320 He's about to die
00:03:35.900 He's about to leave this world
00:03:37.760 And the only thing he's telling us
00:03:40.780 Is like as if to say the only thing I want you to know
00:03:43.880 Is the prayer, the prayer
00:03:46.100 The 5 daily prayer, don't miss it
00:03:48.560 The Prophet was sitting with his companions
00:03:50.940 And he became very sad
00:03:52.940 He said, I yearn
00:03:54.760 He said, I yearn to meet my brothers
00:03:58.020 And I yearn to meet my sisters
00:04:00.560 Bilal radiallahu alayhi wa sallam looked to the Prophet 0.55
00:04:03.880 And he said, Ya Rasulullah
00:04:06.140 Your brothers and your sisters are here, we're here
00:04:09.300 And the Prophet looked at all of his companions
00:04:12.600 He looked at Abu Bakr, Uthman, Ali
00:04:16.480 The greatest people to walk the face of this earth from this ummah
00:04:19.680 And he said, you are not my companions
00:04:22.280 You are not my brothers
00:04:23.220 You're my companions
00:04:25.680 He said, my brothers
00:04:27.480 My brothers and my sisters are those who will come
00:04:31.340 They will believe in me
00:04:33.240 And they have not seen me
00:04:35.080 You are my lord, the most high
00:04:37.080 And I promise you on that day
00:04:38.820 Everyone will turn their back on you
00:04:40.780 But Allah will suffice you 0.99
00:04:42.420 So who will come
00:04:43.780 We're gonna make the adhan insha'Allah 0.91
00:04:45.820 And I urge you guys to pray with us
00:04:48.100 Level not your toes
00:04:49.660 If you areубли animal
00:04:50.660 So
00:04:54.560 People
00:04:55.660 It's like
00:04:56.740 They say
00:04:57.880 acle
00:05:00.300 Kim
00:05:02.620 The
00:05:03.520 Hotel
00:05:12.620 Das 0.67
00:05:17.660 If you don't want to must be
00:05:39.140 Okay
00:05:41.440 So these guys so these guys wanted to leave early, but they had to come back
00:05:45.280 Why do you have to come back?
00:05:47.280 Why do you have to come back?
00:05:49.280 He's doing fine
00:05:51.280 So basically, Alhamdulillah, we're finished, it's half one now
00:05:53.280 Brother Gullah took my keys
00:05:55.280 They left earlier, I said, look, stay, let's do a bit more dawah
00:05:58.280 They said, no, we need to go, I said, okay
00:06:00.280 So they left, and I was like, bro, you guys have got my keys
00:06:03.280 And then they had to come back, drop it
00:06:05.280 So I'm here with Brother Ajme, how did it go?
00:06:07.280 Alhamdulillah, it was good, we met some weird people
00:06:09.280 The reason why I told Ajme, bro, when we go out and do this
00:06:11.280 Specifically, we don't want to look down on anyone
00:06:13.280 We don't go and say, hey, we're the good guys, you're the bad guys
00:06:15.280 We're just sincere advice to our brothers and sisters
00:06:17.280 That's about it
00:06:19.280 We might carry on tomorrow, so inshallah we're gonna see
00:06:21.280 So today's vlog is done
00:06:23.280 Peace
00:06:25.280 How are you getting home by the way?
00:06:27.280 You just have the camera
00:06:29.280 You've been funny
00:06:31.280 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
00:06:32.280 Brothers and sisters and dear friends
00:06:33.280 We've just concluded our day
00:06:35.280 Had some of our food, you know, it's been a tiring day, alhamdulillah
00:06:38.280 We've got some food
00:06:39.280 Now, brothers and sisters, I just wanted to share something with you guys
00:06:41.280 As you know, I made this a bit of like a vlog type
00:06:44.280 Kind of thing, so you guys can see
00:06:46.280 You know, the building up procedure to our mission
00:06:50.280 That we did the Dawud day that we had, the Nasir day 1.00
00:06:52.280 And we do this every year, we did it last year as well
00:06:54.280 The reason why we do this is brothers and sisters
00:06:56.280 Because we know there's a lot of youth out there
00:06:58.280 Who in Ramadan, may Allah bless them
00:07:00.280 May Allah grant them Jannah
00:07:01.280 They're trying their best
00:07:02.280 They're praying Salah 0.83
00:07:03.280 Waking up for Fajr 1.00
00:07:04.280 Whatever it may be
00:07:05.280 Alhamdulillah, they're doing really good
00:07:06.280 But when it comes to Eid
00:07:08.280 Unfortunately, a lot of people
00:07:09.280 They have this misconception
00:07:11.280 Not misconception, but this thought of thinking
00:07:13.280 Okay, we've done it
00:07:14.280 Now it's Eid
00:07:15.280 We have to party
00:07:16.280 You don't have to party
00:07:17.280 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:07:18.280 You can
00:07:19.280 You can do it in the best way possible
00:07:20.280 For example, spending it in a better way
00:07:22.280 Instead of being out in Shisha bars 1.00
00:07:24.280 Nightclubs
00:07:25.280 Wherever it may be
00:07:26.280 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:07:27.280 Now brothers and sisters
00:07:28.280 What we need to understand is
00:07:29.280 For example, when it comes to Shisha
00:07:31.280 Now, as far as we know
00:07:33.280 It is haram
00:07:34.280 Because at the end of the day
00:07:35.280 Whatever harms your body is haram
00:07:36.280 And it's been proven by scientists
00:07:38.280 That Shisha is more harmful to your body than cigarettes 1.00
00:07:41.280 So we know that it's haram
00:07:43.280 But even that you can say
00:07:44.280 Okay, yeah, but I just have a habit
00:07:45.280 I just go to Shisha bars 1.00
00:07:47.280 But what we need to understand
00:07:48.280 Is my dear sister and my brother
00:07:49.280 Is that when you go to these environments
00:07:51.280 Where there's music
00:07:53.280 Where there's Shisha 1.00
00:07:54.280 Where there's free mixing
00:07:55.280 Where there's alcohol
00:07:56.280 Where there's all these kind of madness
00:07:58.280 Some of them Shisha bars have belly dancing
00:08:00.280 It's like a nightclub
00:08:01.280 Do you get what I'm trying to say?
00:08:02.280 Except you don't have a DJ
00:08:04.280 You know?
00:08:05.280 Now, knowing that
00:08:06.280 When you go to these environments
00:08:08.280 What you need to understand is
00:08:09.280 You might think
00:08:10.280 Okay, smoking Shisha is a minus-ing 1.00
00:08:12.280 Yeah?
00:08:13.280 Or music is a minus-ing
00:08:14.280 Or for example, free mixing
00:08:16.280 Is a minus-ing
00:08:17.280 For example, I'm saying
00:08:18.280 Yeah?
00:08:19.280 Even though that
00:08:20.280 At the end of you need to understand
00:08:21.280 Is that the one that you're sinning against
00:08:22.280 Don't say it's minor
00:08:23.280 That's little
00:08:24.280 Put that to a side
00:08:25.280 But what you forget
00:08:27.280 Is that
00:08:28.280 These minor sins
00:08:29.280 Could be the reason
00:08:30.280 Why major sins are committed
00:08:31.280 Such as drinking alcohol
00:08:32.280 Doing drugs
00:08:33.280 Committing Zina 1.00
00:08:34.280 Now when Allah SWT says in the Quran 0.97
00:08:36.280 Do not come near Zina 1.00
00:08:38.280 What does he mean by that?
00:08:39.280 My dear brothers and sisters
00:08:40.280 Is that
00:08:41.280 If I know Zina is here 1.00
00:08:43.280 Right?
00:08:44.280 I am not going to say
00:08:45.280 Let me go
00:08:46.280 Just a bit around it
00:08:47.280 No, no, no
00:08:48.280 I will say
00:08:49.280 I will go round the block
00:08:50.280 I don't even want to go next to it
00:08:52.280 Why?
00:08:53.280 Because of the temptation of falling to it
00:08:55.280 So that's why
00:08:56.280 When you go to an environment
00:08:57.280 Where there's free mixing
00:08:58.280 Music, girls, guys
00:08:59.280 Everything's going around
00:09:01.280 Hey, get somebody's number
00:09:02.280 This, that
00:09:03.280 Oh, it's just about marriage
00:09:04.280 I'm serious
00:09:05.280 My intentions are right
00:09:06.280 One thing leads on to another
00:09:07.280 And before you know it
00:09:09.280 Like the messages that we get
00:09:10.280 Day in, day out
00:09:11.280 From brothers and sisters
00:09:12.280 Of committed Zina 1.00
00:09:14.280 So what is the best thing to do
00:09:16.280 Is to avoid these places
00:09:17.280 Wallahi, just try your best
00:09:19.280 To avoid these places
00:09:20.280 And like I said before
00:09:21.280 We've seen many brothers and sisters
00:09:22.280 Who've done many beneficial stuff
00:09:24.280 Why ruin that?
00:09:25.280 Wallahi, why ruin that
00:09:26.280 By going out there?
00:09:27.280 Now when we went out there
00:09:28.280 The reason why we do this
00:09:29.280 Some people might look and say
00:09:30.280 You know what?
00:09:31.280 Oh, Haram police 1.00
00:09:32.280 Why you guys are involved
00:09:33.280 Going, invading people's privacy
00:09:35.280 This, that
00:09:36.280 Look, wallahi 0.98
00:09:37.280 The first thing as my team
00:09:38.280 When I talk to them, you know
00:09:40.280 Is that, look Akis 1.00
00:09:41.280 This is what I tell them
00:09:42.280 Brothers, we are not here as Haram police 1.00
00:09:44.280 You know
00:09:45.280 We're not here to like
00:09:46.280 Hey, we're the good guys
00:09:47.280 We're the good ones
00:09:48.280 Hey, we're pious, you know
00:09:49.280 And you guys are the bad guys
00:09:51.280 Every person that I gave a leaflet to
00:09:54.280 Or we had a conversation with
00:09:56.280 The first thing that I say to them is
00:09:58.280 My dear sister
00:09:59.280 My dear brother
00:10:00.280 Wallahi
00:10:01.280 Just because I'm giving you this leaflet
00:10:02.280 Or this card
00:10:03.280 Or this reminder
00:10:04.280 In no way does it mean
00:10:05.280 That I'm better than you
00:10:06.280 Because indeed
00:10:07.280 You might have a sincere deed
00:10:08.280 And a pure intention
00:10:09.280 That you do that deed with
00:10:11.280 Which might be more dear to Allah
00:10:12.280 Than anything that I'm doing
00:10:13.280 So the thing that I remind them
00:10:15.280 Is that
00:10:16.280 Because I don't want to be arrogant
00:10:18.280 I don't want to be feeling
00:10:19.280 Yeah, I'm the good guy
00:10:20.280 Wallahi, that's
00:10:21.280 As a team
00:10:22.280 Wallahi, we hate that
00:10:24.280 We don't want to be arrogant
00:10:25.280 And we're the good guys
00:10:26.280 We don't want this behaviour
00:10:27.280 And that's the reason why
00:10:29.280 We just advise them
00:10:31.280 And say my dear brother
00:10:32.280 My dear sister
00:10:33.280 You're like my own brother
00:10:34.280 I just want to advise you
00:10:35.280 Give you this card
00:10:36.280 Inshallah you can benefit
00:10:37.280 And alhamdulillah
00:10:38.280 A lot of people took the leaflets
00:10:40.280 And a lot of people benefited out of it
00:10:42.280 Do you hear what I'm trying to say?
00:10:43.280 So, to be honest
00:10:45.280 To wrap it up brothers and sisters
00:10:46.280 Wallahi, that's about it from me
00:10:47.280 Don't cause your own hands
00:10:49.280 To be your own destruction
00:10:50.280 Wallahi, this lifestyle
00:10:52.280 Whatever it may be
00:10:53.280 Alhamdulillah
00:10:54.280 We didn't see many sisters out and about
00:10:56.280 A lot of brothers out unfortunately
00:10:58.280 But wallahi, this lifestyle
00:11:00.280 Never would it bring happiness
00:11:02.280 Allah says in the Quran
00:11:03.280 Indeed with my remembrance
00:11:04.280 Do hearts find peace
00:11:05.280 If you forget about me
00:11:07.280 You will have a depressed life
00:11:09.280 So brothers and sisters
00:11:10.280 Let's understand
00:11:11.280 That Allah SWT wants the best for you
00:11:13.280 You know
00:11:14.280 Allah SWT doesn't want to punish you
00:11:15.280 Like Allah says in the Quran
00:11:16.280 What will I get out of punishing you?
00:11:17.280 What am I going to get?
00:11:19.280 Wallahi, he's saying it for that
00:11:20.280 We're just here to give a reminder
00:11:22.280 And a benefit and an advice
00:11:23.280 And that's what we've done with the team
00:11:25.280 With Imran
00:11:26.280 As you saw for yourself
00:11:27.280 May Allah SWT grant 0.75
00:11:28.280 Every single one of you guys
00:11:29.280 Jannah
00:11:30.280 And please forgive me
