this is where my embarrassing story with a lot of wisdom happened i'll have a mocha
00:00:11.720
i'm not much of a tea drinker or coffee i don't really like it much
00:00:18.660
but right behind me i had an experience that i don't think i would ever forget for the rest
00:00:25.740
of my life and i would want to share this experience as much as i can on camera or off camera as much as
00:00:32.960
i can not only did i feel embarrassed humiliated but at the same time lessons that i learned from it
00:00:39.920
was overwhelming so overwhelming that i think an atheist and maybe an ex-muslim who didn't know
00:00:50.420
much about islam a muslim a jew a christian whoever it may be you all are going to benefit
00:00:57.800
now at the start of the video you saw those free machines where i was standing that is exactly
00:01:03.680
where it occurred this is how the story goes one night i was working i was tired and usually because
00:01:11.660
of that i usually have an espresso i usually like to have a double espresso so i'm alert when i'm
00:01:16.820
driving so i went there and i said to myself you know what espresso is a bit bitter i want something
00:01:21.580
a bit more nice yeah a bit more sweet you know a bit like latte but i thought not latte so i went on
00:01:27.940
google and i thought what is stronger you know other than latte so it gave me the option of a mocha
00:01:33.580
if i pronounce that right yeah okay because i've never had it ever in my life i went in went to the
00:01:40.200
costa machine costa should sponsor me by the way but they're not anyways so i went to the machine
00:01:45.840
and i pressed mocha and i waited for my drink to get prepared i was waiting and my drink got prepared
00:01:53.000
and as you know in the costa machines it tells you preparing your drink hope you enjoy it hot milk
00:01:58.020
pouring um hot water pouring uh vanilla shot pouring and then all of a sudden i saw there hot chocolate
00:02:05.120
and i was like what the hell's going on what's hot chocolate doing in a coffee
00:02:10.120
so i had a bit of a problem and i was like oh for god's sake because i'm already tired i want
00:02:15.240
something i need to go so the drink was full up i put it to the side and i thought the machine's
00:02:21.100
probably not working i went to the second machine which you guys saw probably you can see on the
00:02:25.080
screen press mocha again i'm waiting there excited same thing hot milk water um blah blah blah hot chocolate
00:02:33.920
again like what the hell is going on like i'm thinking am i like half asleep and i'm like why
00:02:39.240
is he keep putting hot chocolate in my coffee so then i go to the guy and i say mate your machine is
00:02:45.040
not working there's two drinks here which i don't want so he he has a bit of an argument with me
00:02:50.400
because what do you mean our machine's working the machines are fine they're brand new he goes
00:02:53.460
there's nothing wrong with it i go are you like i got a bit agitated yeah i was like are you telling
00:02:58.400
me i'm lying like look i come and look for your own eyes and he was like no it doesn't he's like
00:03:03.960
it's your fault i was like anyway so there was these two guys who were working in the subway i
00:03:08.360
said to him guys brothers come and have a look yourself yeah i don't know if they were muslim
00:03:11.460
i go look i went to the machine again i pressed mocha i go look i want mocha i pressed it
00:03:15.880
the machine i said look carefully yeah hot milk water i go look hot chocolate did you see that
00:03:21.660
hot chocolate i said i don't want hot chocolate i said to the guy i said look even your friend saw it
00:03:26.080
so they don't know themselves either so they're just like okay and they're confused and they go
00:03:30.760
who's going to pay for this other two i said i'm not going to pay for it i didn't ask for this why
00:03:33.780
would i pay for something i didn't ask for so i'm like look i'm frustrated i'm angry i don't want it
00:03:39.640
i'm like what is wrong with you guys i said you saw it for yourself as well i'm having a back and
00:03:43.620
forth with this guy and i'm like look forget it i'm not paying for these drinks i'm gonna order
00:03:48.060
myself a latte i'm paying for the latte i went and paid for the latte i said i'm sorry and i threw the
00:03:52.200
mochas well the mocha whatever is the hot chocolate into the bin i left there the guy was not happy with
00:03:58.680
me i wasn't happy with him because i was thinking what what's wrong with you look it's not my fault
00:04:02.120
and you're asking me to pay for something that i'm not to blame how humiliating how embarrassing
00:04:08.500
and taught me a lesson to educate myself with hot drinks just a couple of days ago just a couple
00:04:16.200
of days ago or last week i found out how mocha is made yes there's hot chocolate in mocha
00:04:25.600
and i felt embarrassed i felt humiliated my lack of knowledge my ignorance of a matter i didn't know
00:04:35.060
i'm not i don't drink hot drinks much i don't like it because i did not know i went there and mocha
00:04:41.440
one of the ingredients of mocha is hot chocolate now besides feeling humiliated and embarrassed and
00:04:47.620
i'm gonna go in there now and hopefully try to pay for those drinks that i threw in the bin
00:04:51.460
and hopefully apologize i learned a massive lesson brothers and sisters and dear friends
00:04:57.220
a lot of the times in life this is exactly what a lot of people do when it comes to the creator
00:05:05.100
muslims ex-muslims atheists ex-christians jews whoever you are when it comes to the creator
00:05:13.880
what is the main thing that is used if god exists why would this happen if god exists why would that
00:05:21.140
happen why did this guy why did the prophet do this why did this do that all all why are these
00:05:27.740
questions being asked because god has the picture and we have the pixel and it made me click it made
00:05:34.600
me understand and be like look ali your lack of knowledge on a matter made you doubt free machines
00:05:41.120
that are working perfectly made you get into an argument with a guy and free other people and in
00:05:46.960
a bit of a way disrespect them why because you don't know how mocha was made and you did not know
00:05:53.840
because hot chocolate is an ingredient of that and because of your lack of knowledge you took it out
00:05:58.100
on all of those people shame on me now obviously i did not know i'm not to blame maybe but what we
00:06:06.620
need to learn is this brothers and sisters in a nutshell before we go in there the fact that just
00:06:11.160
because just because we do not know it does not mean just because we do not know the wisdom does not
00:06:17.920
mean there is no wisdom just because we do not have the knowledge doesn't mean that there is no
00:06:22.200
knowledge the problem is within ourselves and this was a fine example for us to learn that if you don't
00:06:30.500
know something sometimes what we believe in islam is having trust in allah we would trust anyone and
00:06:37.680
anyone if alan shukka came today and said go to oxford street and sell banana skins you know what you say
00:06:42.740
he's a businessman he's a billionaire he knows what he's talking about it doesn't make sense to me
00:06:47.100
but i'll do it allah allah the one who created the heavens and the earth is asking you to trust him
00:06:52.620
like ali banat may allah have mercy on him i'm wrapping up he said it took a doctor in a white
00:06:57.960
suit to tell me i'm gonna die while allah was telling me all this time so brothers and sisters
00:07:02.900
don't humiliate and embarrass yourself like i did learn a lesson from this to put your trust in god
00:07:08.680
almighty and just because you do not know something doesn't mean there is no knowledge behind it or there
00:07:13.520
is no wisdom i'm gonna go in there follow me i'm gonna apologize to the owner and hopefully pay
00:07:19.040
for those drinks that i throw through into the bin
00:07:37.680
