00:00:00.000 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
00:00:02.000 Brothers and sisters and dear friends
00:00:04.000 Welcome to this video, this video is something special
00:00:06.000 Well, it is a bit special
00:00:08.000 May Allah purify your intentions
00:00:10.000 Cause some of you guys might be thinking, okay brother Ali
00:00:12.000 You know, you've got good intentions, we're gonna give up some hats to the homeless people
00:00:14.000 But why do you have to do it on camera?
00:00:16.000 Well, it's to encourage people to do the same
00:00:18.000 I heard that brother Faisal at izaha.com
00:00:20.000 As you guys know
00:00:22.000 Said that he can provide us with some hats
00:00:24.000 And I thought, you know what, if you're gonna provide us with some hats
00:00:26.000 To give to the homeless, it was an idea
00:00:28.000 I said, why not? So we're gonna hit the streets of London
00:00:30.000 Oxford Street
00:00:32.000 Yeah, around that area, Piccadilly Circus
00:00:34.000 And look for some homeless people
00:00:36.000 And give some hats and speak to them
00:00:38.000 Find out why they're there, how long they've been there for
00:00:40.000 Have a bit of interaction, it'll be a bit different
00:00:42.000 A different form of Dawah, you know, Dawah's not always talking to people
00:00:44.000 That's what we're gonna do
00:00:46.000 So let's hit the streets of London
00:00:58.000 I'm gonna get to the streets of London
00:01:00.000 I'm gonna put it in the bank

00:08:26.720 Yeah.
00:08:27.720 Let's go.
00:08:28.720 Where's Faizu?
00:08:29.720 Okay, guys.
00:08:30.720 So, you've seen it for yourself.
00:08:31.720 We gave the hats out.
00:08:32.720 Um...
00:08:33.720 Had a little discussion with a lot of people.
00:08:34.720 One of the people...
00:08:35.720 One of the homeless guys that we approached.
00:08:36.720 The second one, I think.
00:08:37.720 Um...
00:08:38.720 When we gave him the hat...
00:08:39.720 We didn't even say we're Muslims.
00:08:40.720 Nothing.
00:08:41.720 He just took out the Quran.
00:08:42.720 Uh...
00:08:43.720 And then afterwards we went to...
00:08:44.720 Um...
00:08:45.720 Afterwards we went to...
00:08:46.720 Um...
00:08:47.720 A couple of other people as well.
00:08:48.720 And there was a group of Christian people helping them as well.
00:08:49.720 So, it was good.
00:08:50.720 Gave them hats.
00:08:51.720 They enjoyed it.
00:08:52.720 But one thing that really hit me is that when I went to this old lady.
00:08:55.720 We actually sat down and had a bit of a discussion with her.
00:08:56.720 And it's a sad situation because she actually does painting.
00:08:57.720 She's homeless for whatever reason it may be.
00:08:58.720 But her trolley got stolen with all her painting stuff.
00:09:02.720 So, she said that it really hurt because her stuff got stolen.
00:09:03.720 So, we thought, you know what?
00:09:04.720 We said, besides the hat, we gave her a hat.
00:09:05.720 But besides the hat, we said, can we buy you the material back so you can do it?
00:09:07.720 And she said something which really hurt me.
00:09:08.720 She was like, I don't want it because if I have it, I'm going to get attached to it.
00:09:09.720 And if it gets stolen again, it's going to hurt me.
00:09:10.720 And I was like, wow.
00:09:11.720 That really, like, upset me.
00:09:12.720 So, yeah.
00:09:13.720 To be honest, we learned it.
00:09:14.720 Like, you know, it makes you appreciate life.
00:09:15.720 And we actually sat down and had a bit of a discussion with her.
00:09:16.720 And we actually sat down and had a bit of a discussion with her.
00:09:17.720 And it's a sad situation because she actually does painting.
00:09:18.720 She's homeless for whatever reason it may be.
00:09:19.720 But her trolley got stolen with all her painting stuff.
00:09:20.720 So, she said that it really hurt because her stuff got stolen.
00:09:21.720 She was like, I don't want it because if I have it, I'm going to get attached to it.
00:09:22.720 And if it gets stolen again, it's going to hurt me.
00:09:23.720 And I was like, wow.
00:09:24.720 That really, like, upset me.
00:09:25.720 So, yeah.
00:09:26.720 To be honest, we learned it.
00:09:27.720 Like, you know, it makes you appreciate life.
00:09:28.720 It makes you appreciate the little things that you have in life.
00:09:29.720 And I hope it does the same with you guys.
00:09:30.720 Now, since that's over.
00:09:31.720 As you guys know, Izaha is providing us with a hat.
00:09:34.720 And they are more than happy to provide other YouTubers to do the same thing in their own city.
00:09:38.720 All right.
00:09:39.720 So, let's see.
00:09:40.720 Let's see.
00:09:41.720 Let's see.
00:09:42.720 Let's see.
00:09:43.720 Let's see.
00:09:44.720 Let's see.
00:09:45.720 Let's see.
00:09:46.720 Let's see.
