00:00:04.900

00:00:10.520
just imagine the people back in the day when they would have to travel certain distances
00:00:17.100
for months or even years what is one thing that they would carry with them the quran
00:00:21.920
why because they did not have it on their mobile devices or their gadgets
00:00:25.660

00:01:05.700
on joe rogan i think i don't know what to make out of him like i'll be honest with you i think joe
00:01:10.460
rogan has given a platform to a lot of um rogans a lot of non-mainstream people that have shared their
00:01:17.880
ideas because let's face it i mean when it comes to mainstream television you're only fed the same thing
00:01:22.540
again and again he provided an alternative and because of that because of his genuine inquisitive
00:01:28.360
nature he's not only risen to prominence but he's helped significantly donald trump who thanked him
00:01:34.940
in his uh winning speech yeah and he mentioned a bunch of people and then he said something along
00:01:40.860
the lines of uh then the ultimate joe rogan or whatever it is so trump bigged up joe rogan well
00:01:47.940
joe rogan in this clip is big enough muslims should we find out why really yeah come on yeah
00:01:52.020
and he's actually saw seen two of them with his guest or about even though even though some people
00:01:57.340
say oh why do we care about what people say about islam and this and that however when we're living
00:02:02.460
in a society that is very celebrity orientated it does have an impact on people's opinions and does
00:02:09.780
you know shape people's minds and it's strategic why not here we go this is what he had to say
00:02:13.740
my friend that did it he's now out of it um of the priesthood yeah he left the priesthood he's still
00:02:19.720
gay still queer as they come and uh but he left the priesthood which was weird because we were like
00:02:26.260
whoa is he coming out is he this and he left and now um uh he just said they were changing too many
00:02:34.500
things like the literal religion messed him up to get him out yeah interesting what were they changing
00:02:40.700
the catholic church i and my mom please she doesn't know how to listen to podcast anyway
00:02:45.580
the catholic church uh changes on a dime like even something lent right now we're in lent right right
00:02:53.360
there was so many rules that my mom had that we don't have like my generation didn't have and now
00:03:00.000
it's a whole nother like lent is now i'm looking at kids like what you could do that it's lent you're
00:03:06.540
not allowed to you have to do this this and this but they've changed they just changed so that they
00:03:11.800
can recruit that's why the muslims are gonna win they don't give a who joins that's ramadan is you
00:03:19.220
got a month and nobody's eating all day long no water no food we were uh in downtown the other day
00:03:26.740
driving downtown la and there's an alleyway and this dude was in the alleyway in l.a. no in austin
00:03:33.200
in austin okay did i say l.a. yeah yeah i'm sorry in downtown austin and uh there was this dude that
00:03:38.660
was in an alleyway and he was uh it was the sun was going down so he's praying oh i saw that wherever
00:03:45.040
you are you gotta pray i saw in new york city and he was like and it's so hard to find a space
00:03:51.360
in new york city so i i was like wow that is impressive exactly he was behind like a pillar that
00:03:58.480
like went into there was a little bit of room to go into these offices and he was literally just
00:04:02.940
behind the pillar just doing that and i was like wow that is right in times square wow this is in
00:04:09.320
toronto so this is a protest for something oh there it is yeah but it's still it's still it's a protest
00:04:16.140
okay even if it's a protest you get that many people that are doing that there's not another religion
00:04:21.560
that would do that that would do that they are so much more devout yeah in their belief
00:04:26.600
because they're praying like the catholics would just wave a cross in your face and they do like a
00:04:32.040
half ass and a lot of people would come out yeah the muslims are out there in the street on their
00:04:38.980
knees your traffic where we're praying you know which is this is that's a different thing toronto it's
00:04:46.080
busy joe rogan seeing a man praying in alleyway and this is why it's really important because
00:04:51.500
sometimes when i used to like do uber when i used to drive i had to pray outside bro like because
00:04:55.340
masjids are closed you get it and a lot of people come and say to me oh why don't you go to the
00:04:58.080
masjid there's very reasonable sometimes i've got the kids in the car i can't take the whole kids
00:05:01.820
you know i'm trying to say so it's like sometimes i'll pray in the back and i'll be honest with you
00:05:05.940
i've had like i've had obviously you get people like i've got to get muslims come and try to put
00:05:09.220
carp in front of you or say mashallah or whatever that matter but what you need to bear in mind is
00:05:13.420
how are non-muslims perceiving you now when i pray outside a lot of people sometimes i'll ask certain
00:05:18.040
brothers that may be newly practicing etc and they're like praying and they're
00:05:21.360
finding a little bit embarrassing and i'm like like i don't say nothing but i'm like
00:05:25.460
well why should i be embarrassed what what am i doing embarrassing people are having sex
00:05:29.760
in public whoa madness that escalated very quickly yeah actually they do and it's one of the signs
00:05:36.200
of the hour actually one of the signs of the hour is that two people have an intimacy on the road
00:05:39.680
and the best amongst them will say go behind the wall so it says what if they have no shame doing
00:05:43.940
that which an action that's going to testify against them on nyoma kiyama yeah why am i going to be
00:05:48.620
shy and embarrassed and the same thing we have when it comes to enjoying good and forbidden evil
00:05:51.800
you see a brother or with a girl or whatever kissing with a haram relationship yeah you had to i'm so
00:05:58.440
sorry yeah and people come and say oh advise them oh bro i feel embarrassed they don't feel embarrassed
00:06:03.340
doing that in public you feel embarrassed advising them our deen that's what allah says let there rise
00:06:07.520
amongst you a group of people who will enjoy good and forbidden evil so when it comes to this it shows
00:06:10.720
you that's why there was a guy in the back of a cab and he said my cab driver has just gone out to pray
00:06:15.940
yeah and i'll be honest with you when i was a cab driver there's one moment i had to do that
00:06:19.320
there was a two guys i think one guy and his girlfriend they were kind of tipsy i said guys
00:06:24.060
i genuinely have to pray so i can either you can either cancel this ride there's another way for
00:06:28.720
you bro you know what happened you won't believe this did they accept islam no bro i went out to
00:06:33.320
pray bro the woman came not right next to me beside me just stop praying with me bro she started
00:06:39.300
literally i finished i didn't know when i looked i could hear something and she was like yeah i wanted to
00:06:43.960
pray she was doing something i don't know what she's doing yeah but but the thing is it just shows
00:06:48.480
you that this has value and people judge by your actions and sometimes when you're just um you know
00:06:54.360
time for salah comes obviously your primary intention is to pray to allah however when you put that
00:06:59.520
prayer mat down you think oh you know who's watching me and this and that you can either see it in a
00:07:04.060
negative way like who's watching me what are they thinking or you could think it in a positive
00:07:08.440
dawah centric sort of way that if someone is watching this is going to appeal to their fitrah
00:07:14.460
this is going to appeal to the natural disposition that this they are this is something familiar
00:07:19.260
about this there's something safe about this there's something for you know something unique
00:07:23.840
and special about this because this is the way that the prophets so you look in the old and the new
00:07:28.260
testament you know that this is how the prophets prayed we know in the garden of gets and gets
00:07:33.080
enemy jesus put his head on the floor and bowed down some say that he was bowing down to himself
00:07:40.080
because of course he's god and you know all of that sort of stuff however sticking with the point
00:07:44.940
you don't know who you're giving dawah to you don't know the impact of that salah like ibrahim
00:07:51.020
when he was in the desert and he made the call they were like it's up to allah to take his call
00:07:59.420
and send it to everybody and look worldwide people go to do hajj and umrah visit mecca medina there's
00:08:07.700
not a moment that somebody is not doing tawaf there's not a moment exactly and not only that you
00:08:12.680
know when you in salah because if you see it what was joe rogan connecting what was it doing a
00:08:17.020
correlation with the prayer he was saying and they're going to win because it shows dedication
00:08:21.600
that's why when he talked about how he said the guy only knows allah and wrestling and allah
00:08:25.560
something like that yeah he connected it directly to uh to um success so you can see he's like these
00:08:30.660
people are going to win why because they're not degenerate do you get it we have a purpose we have
00:08:34.420
a focus and that's one thing nobody can take away from us and not only that when you're praying you're
00:08:38.920
showing liberation you're showing true liberation why because you are connecting yourself to the
00:08:43.920
creator not caring about the creation because for one to go and pray you're basically saying i don't
00:08:48.100
care what you think of me i don't care if you laugh at me i don't care about the dunya i'm here
00:08:52.120
with my lord that is like a true power empowerment but when you look at someone and be like and let
00:08:56.680
me be honest like sometimes when i was not a muslim and i would see women who were wearing the hijab
00:08:59.880
in a buyer i was like like i salute that bro i salute that because what of the degeneracy that's
00:09:04.400
going on the fact that you're choosing to do the opposite i i don't think i ever came across
00:09:08.060
muslims playing on the street i don't remember that yeah but i had some friends here and there pray
00:09:11.220
but i'm sure you had friends yeah whoa come on before you i had good friends
00:09:17.520
i'm glad that changed yeah there's another important point which is that the rules and
00:09:23.400
the discipline is what non-muslims especially in this day of post-modernism where it's all about
00:09:29.040
subjectivity you have these people that are sticking true to their beliefs their ideals such that they
00:09:34.980
are able to stay true to themselves this is something that people without rules really value
00:09:40.860
and it's so ironic that you have certain muslims that are on the border of gufr and saying no
00:09:46.980
there's too many rules and we feel like this or the non-muslims that come to islam they love the
00:09:52.220
fact that there's so many rules that there's order there is discipline look at judaism you think islam's
00:09:58.060
got rules and regulations brother i know some jewish people i went to the synagogue the rules they
00:10:03.900
have bro wallahi bro you will thank allah for islam bro you think that we have rules bro we are we
00:10:09.160
got it easy mate bro there's some regulations they have to follow with water next to the bedroom
00:10:12.820
the bed bro i was out bro that is crazy but even like in new york city there's like this thin line
00:10:18.840
that goes all the way around they're trying to do one in liverpool now yeah they're trying to kind
00:10:23.820
of find ways around in which they can kind of maneuver around their sabbath yeah their religious
00:10:29.880
responsibilities but this it comes back to this point the discipline but why are they doing that
00:10:34.480
because their religion is so hard so they have no choice but to find ways of getting out of it
00:10:39.420
but with us and they they did that to their self because we know in the quran Allah tells us that
00:10:43.080
they made a witch cow what color this that sorry you know but that's why islam is a balanced you
00:10:48.540
know religion but yeah something that tells us how to go to the toilet somebody that tells us how to
00:10:53.420
you know what to put in our wills something that is there how to do with your marital issues
00:10:59.480
disputes everything business everything bro it's a way of life but yeah i mean yeah that's it guys
