00:03:54.620 Oh he's
00:03:55.320 He's a bit risky

00:04:15.340 People asked you

00:04:47.080 Go to the link and donate now
00:04:48.840 And now back to the podcast
00:04:50.520 History is one of those things
00:04:52.840 That people don't really ask about
00:04:54.320 So for example
00:04:55.340 Alright we're discussing evolution
00:04:57.280 We're discussing atheism
00:04:58.620 Blah blah blah
00:04:59.140 Okay but what's the history of atheism
00:05:02.320 In the Muslim world 0.98
00:05:03.760 What happened in Central Asia
00:05:05.220 What happened in the Soviet Union
00:05:06.440 What happened in all these different parts of the world
00:05:09.600 which are now very much secular but were ruled by colonial powers so a lot of as you know what
00:05:16.320 i do is work on atheism darwinism scientism but it's the history of it people aren't really
00:05:21.280 interested in history and when you speak to them about for example um you mentioned certain things
00:05:27.120 about neville chamberlain what happened before churchill took over uh julian huxley his link to
00:05:33.440 unesco all these types of things people aren't interested in what's unesco a united nations
00:05:38.480 Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organizations
00:05:40.520 So this was set up by
00:05:41.820 What can I just say?
00:05:42.620 MashaAllah
00:05:43.020 Wow, I tested you there
00:05:44.340 Yes, wow, MashaAllah
00:05:45.660 Fantastic
00:05:46.080 So people like Julian Huxley
00:05:47.840 Dangerous people
00:05:49.000 Very dangerous Darwinists, right?
00:05:50.800 But people generally are just interested in
00:05:52.500 Oh, where does this fossil fit?
00:05:54.780 I want to know about like
00:05:56.180 Okay, I want people to ask me about that
00:05:57.900 That's deep, you know
00:05:58.620 Because if you go to the roots of it
00:06:00.220 It's more important
00:06:00.980 Because it can dissect a lot of things
00:06:02.220 Like they say
00:06:02.780 The one who forgets his past
00:06:04.260 Will never know his future
00:06:05.060 Absolutely
00:06:05.520 So it's very, very important
00:06:06.620 That's interesting
00:06:07.120 It's just interesting
00:06:07.640 It takes up to Allah
00:06:08.240 Okay
00:06:08.880 Alright
00:06:10.260 Am I doing another one now?
00:06:11.300 Yeah yeah
00:06:11.700 You know what we should do?
00:06:13.220 We should get like
00:06:13.700 Heart palpitation measurement
00:06:14.820 Just to see like
00:06:15.760 Your heart rate
00:06:16.540 Of each question
00:06:17.640 As heart rates
00:06:19.440 70 or 80
00:06:20.400 A minute
00:06:21.000 You've been sticking on that card
00:06:23.460 For a long time
00:06:23.980 Is that the same card?
00:06:24.880 Yeah
00:06:25.180 I'm really intrigued
00:06:26.000 It's one of those
00:06:27.100 It's one of those cards
00:06:28.320 I'm thinking about
00:06:29.140 I bet the audience is excited as well
00:06:30.780 Because they can't see your cards
00:06:31.760 They can't
00:06:32.720 They can't
00:06:33.980 Yeah I'll go with this one
00:06:35.800 Okay
00:06:36.180 This is the first
00:06:37.900 Personal card
00:06:38.880 That he is
00:06:39.700 Asking
00:06:40.920 Yeah
00:06:41.760 Oh okay
00:06:42.840 That's a tough one
00:06:43.780 Is it?
00:06:44.460 Yeah
00:06:44.760 You could have forgot it
00:06:46.420 But you know
00:06:47.000 Sometimes
00:06:47.620 You know
00:06:48.060 I believe in eating the frog
00:06:49.220 Yeah
00:06:49.700 Nice
00:06:50.860 Why a frog?
00:06:52.020 There's a book called
00:06:53.060 There's a book called
00:06:54.000 Eat that frog 0.96
00:06:54.660 Right
00:06:55.100 It's like
00:06:55.700 You do the hardest task first
00:06:57.240 You know I'm like that
00:06:58.300 Because you know why
00:06:59.260 Allah says in the Quran
00:06:59.820 فَإِنَّمَا الْأُسْرَ يُسْرَ
00:07:01.100 إِنَّمَا الْأُسْرَ يُسْرَ
00:07:02.300 With hardship comes ease
00:07:03.680 Verily with hardship comes ease
00:07:05.020 The opposite is true
00:07:06.260 Because if with hardship comes ease
00:07:07.680 With ease comes
00:07:08.600 Hardship
00:07:09.560 So sometimes when you get
00:07:10.980 The hardship out of the way
00:07:11.860 You have ease in the long run
00:07:13.260 So people are like
00:07:14.220 Please Ali tell us
00:07:14.940 Okay
00:07:15.200 Who do you wish
00:07:16.820 Would forgive you
00:07:18.240 I think my father
00:07:21.420 Okay
00:07:22.460 I had a
00:07:24.560 Like my father wanted
00:07:26.200 To spend more time with me
00:07:27.180 And I was like
00:07:28.820 Doing my thing
00:07:30.120 Young person
00:07:31.240 Okay
00:07:31.660 I remember one time
00:07:33.520 He rang me
00:07:34.300 i was at university and i was just out i was just with my friend and he was speaking to me and he
00:07:39.820 rang me from pakistan i was at university at the time i said oh i'm like i'm busy now or something
00:07:45.740 right and then that was my last phone call and he died after that so he he was one of those dads
00:07:53.500 that really wanted to spend time with me but i just wanted to do my own thing that kind of thing
00:07:57.980 I had a good relationship with him
00:08:00.440 But he died when I was at university
00:08:02.760 I was around 21 years old
00:08:04.320 So it's one of those things
00:08:06.280 That I spoke to my mom about
00:08:07.420 And my mom said
00:08:08.220 No, no, he wasn't, you know
00:08:09.780 Upset with you
00:08:10.620 But in my heart, I think
00:08:12.480 Last phone call
00:08:14.040 Yeah, subhanAllah 0.99
00:08:17.800 That's like if you look at the qadr of Allah 1.00
00:08:19.180 There's things that happen
00:08:20.480 We don't know about
00:08:21.280 I'll be honest with you
00:08:22.240 I mean, if I met your dad
00:08:24.800 I would say
00:08:25.800 Please give me a secret
00:08:26.940 Of how you brought a son like this
00:08:28.420 Like I'll be honest with you
00:08:29.220 I would say to him
00:08:29.680 Please what's the recipe
00:08:30.740 Of having a son like you
00:08:32.540 Because at the end of the day
00:08:33.940 Alhamdulillah
00:08:34.240 Look you know
00:08:34.600 I've known you for about
00:08:35.380 What good 12-13 years
00:08:36.840 Alhamdulillah
00:08:37.200 You know
00:08:37.940 And we know
00:08:38.840 I know people I get home with
00:08:39.840 I don't get home with
00:08:40.440 And even the people I don't get home with
00:08:41.560 I meet them for the sake of Allah
00:08:42.420 Do you get it?
00:08:43.020 Just because at the end of the day
00:08:43.940 You know
00:08:44.180 One of the people
00:08:44.660 Under the shade of Allah 0.71
00:08:45.620 Are those who met each other
00:08:46.800 Purely for the sake of Allah
00:08:47.640 You know
00:08:48.340 So
00:08:48.840 Forgiving people is a big thing
00:08:50.220 It is a big thing
00:08:51.400 It is a big thing
00:08:52.020 And I think your dad
00:08:52.840 be proud of you you know there is that but look you know there is you know that you haven't like
00:08:59.920 been there like my father was a person who really uh taught he taught me public speaking
00:09:06.160 like not formally but he wanted me to be a public speaker he got me to do like a speech
00:09:11.360 uh he got me into martial arts he gave me a lot of confidence but one of those things i only
00:09:18.580 appreciated my father after a long time after he was gone when he was alive especially the last
00:09:25.760 couple of years i didn't really appreciate him and that's why you know that thing about forgiveness
00:09:30.260 because i didn't spend time with him i didn't really it's not like i was a bad son but you know
00:09:36.500 like when a father wants to spend time with the child and the child's just like yeah i just want
00:09:40.580 to hang out with my friends i just want to do this i want to do that he used to talk to me about
00:09:44.040 certain things he used to say you know i want you to do this you should be doing this and you know
00:09:48.200 the usual type of thing so that's one of those things that that last phone call and i don't talk
00:09:53.800 about this ever but that last phone call just killed me because the next thing he was he was
00:10:00.920 not alive after that he had a heart attack next time i spoke to him uh in the hospital he couldn't
00:10:07.620 actually speak he's actually completely uh bedridden and that was just a few weeks before he died so
00:10:14.080 But if
00:10:14.700 SubhanAllah
00:10:15.160 100%
00:10:16.100 It's so deep
00:10:16.580 But you know
00:10:17.000 If you think about it
00:10:17.760 That's something that

00:10:31.240 In our lives
00:10:31.900 Until they're gone
00:10:32.720 And the second thing
00:10:34.820 Which is important is
00:10:35.960 My mum said this to me

00:10:56.460 You know it's like
00:10:57.000 You know
00:10:58.020 I can remember once
00:10:59.060 I was in speaker school
00:10:59.640 And I was with this guy
00:11:01.260 Who was really hostile towards me
00:11:02.500 And one day
00:11:03.700 I think I'd just done a video
00:11:04.580 About my kids or something
00:11:05.920 And he was like
00:11:06.720 You know what Ali
00:11:07.280 When I watched that video
00:11:08.820 You became human in my eyes
00:11:11.020 Because before
00:11:11.780 He was just Ali Daw 0.98
00:11:12.440 He comes to speaker school
00:11:13.100 And debates
00:11:13.580 But he goes
00:11:14.360 It melted my heart
00:11:15.400 It's like

00:11:25.700 You don't know
00:11:26.180 You know
00:11:26.660 Just on that point
00:11:27.660 I was with someone
00:11:29.500 Just a few days ago
00:11:30.680 And
00:11:31.760 Funnily enough
00:11:32.800 I rang you
00:11:33.840 And we spoke about something
00:11:35.560 And then somebody
00:11:36.560 In my family said
00:11:37.780 I wish you weren't friends
00:11:39.080 With this guy
00:11:39.580 And I said
00:11:40.460 Oh me
00:11:41.400 Yeah
00:11:41.780 I was going to Mohamed Ijab 0.99
00:11:43.120 So I was like, you know, all this negativity from TikTok.
