00:01:10.020
inshallah i'm here with brother canin assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
00:01:12.820
so obviously i don't know i think it was you with us in the car when we first heard about
00:01:19.200
the death of brother abdul latif obviously there is someone that you don't know i don't think
00:01:24.440
you've met him you do know anthony joshua yeah so he was crossed with anthony joshua he was his
00:01:29.220
friend if i'm not mistaken he was even giving him dawah yeah so he's a brother that i've met
00:01:34.640
once in near my area in a mystery i can remember he was in a restaurant and that's one time and i've
00:01:41.220
met him a couple of times before as well um few brother um ajmal so subhanallah what was your
00:01:47.400
take because there's the initial news of the accident yeah and sadly a lot of people obviously
00:01:52.140
just we're just talking about anthony joshua yeah yeah there were two other souls there who were in
00:01:56.860
there as well subhanallah and obviously we're happy that anthony joshua um survived it but um what was
00:02:02.640
your take like when you first where did you hear it first yeah when was it was one told us yeah yeah that's
00:02:06.280
what i heard first i think obviously first off for the muslim brothers may allah have mercy on them
00:02:09.920
and um get high strength agenda and be rewarded for all the good that they did while they're on this
00:02:14.500
earth i mean um for me i think it's just you know it's a sad but much needed reminder of how
00:02:19.760
fleeting life is right we're in this society right now where if our food wasn't amazing or if i
00:02:25.160
if our shoes don't fit exactly perfect we complain about all these things and oh this sucks
00:02:29.740
my life sucks when in the reality today could be your last day alive and you're going to tell me
00:02:33.900
you're going to spend your last day alive complaining that your food wasn't good or
00:02:38.320
your food was late um i think it's a it's a much needed reminder of of life and how it can just
00:02:44.560
be gone like that and then the next part is you know with anthony joshua he just won a fight you
00:02:49.540
know top of the top of the world has all this money and then you have something like that happen it's
00:02:53.360
another reminder where all of these things that we attach ourselves to these these dunya materials all
00:02:58.860
my money my status my fame that can also just be gone instantaneously and i think it's really
00:03:05.100
important for us to stay grounded and remember truly what's important because we're not going to
00:03:09.720
be here very long yeah like to me there was a couple of things that hit me like when i when i heard
00:03:14.980
this and i i got to saw a horrific footage um that was circulating which i'll be honest with you
00:03:23.140
there's there's hearing that the brothers passed away which is sad in itself then seeing the footage
00:03:28.820
which i cannot even describe to you bro i wasn't his close friend
00:03:59.420
and that like when I saw that and I'm someone I would say that I remember death often yeah I try
00:04:18.680
to because I come from a jahi I come from the dunya the money the cars the girls all that kind
00:04:22.520
of stuff I've left that behind and even then it hit me so like subhanAllah in a way where I was
00:04:27.420
like man like imagine you just have all these plants and I'm going to do this and I'm going
00:04:32.760
to move into this new house and I'm going to buy a new car or I'm planning on doing this with my
00:04:36.320
wife or I'm planning to go in here with my children I'm planning on doing this you've got
00:04:40.620
these plants plants plants and this who is your lord who is your lord who is your prophet what was
00:04:47.080
your religion it's like going from that to that because that was instant death like what I saw
00:04:54.860
that I cannot even describe to you that was number one number one just showed me like how
00:04:59.140
just just like that you're going and like you said complain about the most stupid silly things in life
00:05:04.640
that people argue complain to fall out with each other about and it was like all over what to a
00:05:10.720
death like they said the the causes are many but the death is one it's the same death the causes are
00:05:15.700
many number two for aj and I believe this video will reach him anthony and joshua abdul latif was someone
00:05:22.640
who gave you dawah who told you about islam you prayed behind him obviously we do not know if
00:05:26.540
you're a muslim or not but brother abdul latif done dawah to you may allah bless and preserve him and
00:05:30.580
allow in this in the hereafter and that allow it to be a sadaqa jari for him because he's put that
00:05:36.480
effort in subhanallah he was into his fitness you know subhanallah he did many stuff etc etc he went
00:05:41.600
to gambia with brother abu bakar uh subhanallah for the spot project and there's even a link in the
00:05:47.380
description inshallah i'm going to put two links there to do a sadaqa jari number one the water wells
00:05:51.000
and other stuff that's brother abdul bakar doing number two for our salah pro project because
00:05:56.100
it's a ongoing sadaqa jari for him to teach people how to pray salah if you want to donate to that it's
00:06:01.540
those two links there because i really wanted him to benefit in this hereafter inshallah
00:06:04.600
water wells are fantastic and also to teach someone how to pray salah and the sadaqa jari continues and
00:06:09.200
continues that we hope abdul latif our brother will see that on your maqiyama the amount of people that
00:06:14.920
he helped be water wells be it to the orphans be it teaching people how to pray salah subhanallah
00:06:20.160
which is so close to my heart so that was one and for aj wallahi that's this this if this is not
00:06:25.220
a wake-up call i don't know what is because it is it was so horrifying for me to for him to be in
00:06:30.620
that scene knowing that's happened to find that his friends died subhanallah it is a wake-up call to
00:06:37.000
him to be like this dunya is nothing and you have to i don't know if you accepted islam or not bro
00:06:41.960
wallahi if that was me the first thing i would do is like shahada bro like i'm just like this is a sign
00:06:47.700
within itself he and somebody else survived yeah so subhanallah to me that was like a massive wake-up
00:06:52.960
call and with the death thing i don't know i just look at life and i'm just like man it's crazy
00:06:58.320
like all of this stuff here believe or not is a big distraction in my opinion because
00:07:03.380
in the grand scheme of things like everything that i chase and everything that i want to own to make me
00:07:08.960
feel relevant on this earth is not so important because i can't take it with me that's what's
00:07:15.820
guaranteed is is death all that's going to be important is kind of like just living to the
00:07:21.900
best of our capability ain't it mad how fast life will go we'll be old and one day all that will
00:07:26.820
matter is living to the best of our capability and lastly i would say that allah tells us in the quran
00:07:32.080
allah says you are busy with the worldly affairs with the worldly competition yes what i have what
00:07:44.180
i drive who sees me this etc until you visit the graves allah says until you visit the graves you're
00:07:49.260
busy with all this stuff until you visit the graves and no surely you're going to know and
00:07:54.300
allah repeats the statement says and no surely you will know allah's giving you a promise
00:07:58.840
that hereafter is real allah's telling you you are busy with all of this glamour all of these things
00:08:04.920
that aj lives as well yeah until you visit the graves and the scholars understand this in two
00:08:10.440
ways number one you go and bury someone so those who are going to go to the brothers janazah yeah
00:08:16.520
they're going to go there and be like wow i'm chasing the dunya and this that whatever
00:08:19.560
but this is the reality and number two the scholars say is not someone being alive and burying someone
00:08:25.940
but rather you yourself die meaning allah saying you are busy with the worldly affairs
00:08:30.500
until you die and enter the grave then everything stops yeah so subhanallah it's it's such a such a
00:08:36.120
powerful mind to us and one thing that is i want to touch on because i don't like to be fake
00:08:40.440
yeah like we heard of the death and like it was upset etc but our life continued bro let's be real bro
00:08:47.640
our life continued like even five ten minutes ago i was making jokes yeah not that we're not silent
00:08:52.080
what happened this is the reality of the dunya bro when i die my friends might be sad for a couple of
00:09:00.160
hours if anything somebody's gonna make a joke and someone's gonna laugh and that reality is a reality
00:09:06.320
to tell you even your own mother after a couple of months time somebody's gonna make a joke and she's
00:09:11.480
gonna laugh that doesn't make her bad that is the reality of the dunya we are living which shows you
00:09:17.660
what no one will ever be there for you truly except the one who created you and if you put him first
00:09:25.060
you will see him first inshallah that was my reflections on this i think it's also a very
00:09:31.520
sobering thought for uh all muslims right now if you were to die right now are you in a place where
00:09:38.020
you feel like you're ready to face your lord right have you have you conquered that sin have you dealt
00:09:42.760
with that issue right a lot of people we procrastinate i'll deal with it later right oh no no
00:09:47.420
no in a year i'll start praying five times a day no no in a year i'll get out of this haram
00:09:51.020
relationship you might not have a year right you might die right now and you face the law right now
00:09:55.940
would how would you feel facing a law right now with the sins that you're dealing with
00:09:59.720
and you haven't yet repented right so i think it's a very sobering thought and something we as
00:10:04.080
muslims need to understand where it's like every single day could be your last day and you should be
00:10:08.220
prepared every day to meet your lord yeah am i in a state to meet my lord am i in a place right
00:10:13.320
where i am right now if i died right now is this a fine place to die right it's like you're at the
00:10:18.060
club you're um in a place you shouldn't be and then you die that's where you die exactly and just
00:10:24.720
lastly you know that yolo you only live once we also live by that and also the people who are
00:10:30.860
who follow that lifestyle of do have fun as much as you like the difference is this they say i'm gonna
00:10:35.960
live once let me have as much fun as i can the believer says i'm gonna live once let me do as
00:10:40.800
much good deeds as i can so it's both yolo you only live once it's the perspective of how we see it
00:10:44.840
so again i want to reiterate guys everyone has plans cars holidays this i'm going here and you
00:10:51.600
know what the funny thing is we book these things and think of these plans as if they are promised to
00:10:56.240
us as if i'm like 100 for certainty i'm going to do this and just imagine this guys all of these plans
00:11:02.260
that we all have every single one of us here next minute it's who is your lord from the angels
00:11:09.280
you went from that to plans to that and my career whatever it is to split moment of death and you
00:11:15.400
wake up in your grave and the question is asked you who is your lord are you ready to answer that
00:11:19.920
and allah says we will make them firm they shall not grieve nor shall they fear allah has given you
00:11:25.500
that promise you will not grieve nor you shall fear and you will only have that is if you live
00:11:31.580
and die by la ilaha illallah if you don't live by la ilaha illallah you are not going to die by la ilaha
00:11:36.400
illallah and in that grave you are not going to be able to answer it no matter how much you have
00:11:39.660
memorized it so make dua for our brother may allah grant him the highest ranks of jannah for the dawah
00:11:44.460
that he's given to brother aj and inshallah we don't know if he's accepted this time or not
00:11:47.640
hopefully this is a sign that it will and number two there's sadiqah jaleh for both things spot project
00:11:52.180
and for the salah project inshallah brown sisters which goes towards teaching people how to pray
00:11:57.260
salah that and do it with the intentions of the sadiqah jaleh on behalf of this brother and those
00:12:01.420
who have passed away till next time assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
