00:00:00.000 Assalamu alaikum guys
00:00:03.000 I'm literally
00:00:08.400 I have goosebumps
00:00:13.600 It's like 5 in the morning
00:00:18.580 Obviously as you guys know I do Uber on the weekends
00:00:22.800 I cannot believe what happened
00:00:26.620 So I just dropped the sister home
00:00:33.740 She just accepted Islam in the car
00:00:37.620 And let me just tell you guys from the beginning
00:00:42.040 It's so overwhelming
00:00:44.080 It's so overwhelming
00:00:46.140 I get a request
00:00:48.300 So I prayed Fajr
00:00:50.660 I get a request and I'm feeling proper sleepy
00:00:53.280 When I'm feeling sleepy I'm heading home
00:00:54.620 Anyways I get a request
00:00:56.880 I set my destination towards my house
00:00:58.980 So when you do an Uber
00:00:59.980 You set your destination towards the house
00:01:02.060 So it sends you jobs that way
00:01:04.080 So obviously before I usually ring
00:01:06.740 To see where the person's going
00:01:08.920 Just see if it's towards exactly my direction
00:01:11.640 So I ring the sister
00:01:13.080 I think she's called Veronica
00:01:14.700 She's from Lithuania
00:01:15.800 And I just ring and I go
00:01:18.700 Yeah
00:01:19.120 Hi there it's your Uber driver
00:01:20.200 I was just wondering
00:01:21.000 Basically where are you going
00:01:22.600 She was at something like Essex
00:01:23.800 I was like
00:01:24.100 Ah Essex
00:01:24.760 Oh bloody hell
00:01:25.520 I was thinking okay
00:01:27.140 But she said something else
00:01:28.500 So I thought okay
00:01:29.060 Anyways
00:01:31.380 I go to pick her
00:01:34.140 I go there to pick her up
00:01:35.380 And
00:01:36.700 Obviously
00:01:38.920 I think she was at a party
00:01:40.840 And obviously I think she was drinking
00:01:43.560 So
00:01:45.120 I'm waiting
00:01:46.440 It's 3-4 minutes
00:01:47.540 And Uber cancels the ride
00:01:48.600 After 6 minutes
00:01:49.720 So
00:01:51.620 And then she calls me
00:01:53.220 And then
00:01:53.600 I go
00:01:54.540 Okay hi I'm here
00:01:55.560 Where are you?
00:01:57.140 And then she goes
00:01:58.000 Okay I'm stuck
00:01:58.860 There's gates
00:01:59.760 I can't open the gates
00:02:00.880 Yeah and I was about to cancel
00:02:02.820 Yeah I was going to feel
00:02:03.440 Forget this
00:02:04.080 Seriously it's like 4-5 minutes
00:02:05.160 It's been 4-5 minutes
00:02:06.520 I need to go home
00:02:07.480 So
00:02:08.740 I'm like okay
00:02:09.620 So I go
00:02:10.200 Where are you?
00:02:11.160 So I go
00:02:11.940 And I see
00:02:12.480 That there's these gates
00:02:13.480 She's behind those gates
00:02:14.540 And
00:02:16.140 She's stuck
00:02:16.900 So she's saying
00:02:17.660 Can you help me?
00:02:18.460 And I was like
00:02:18.960 Okay how can I help
00:02:20.400 I don't know how to help
00:02:20.960 Do you know what I'm trying to say?
00:02:23.020 I thought she was saying
00:02:23.840 Help me get over the gate
00:02:24.900 And I was like
00:02:25.380 I can't do that
00:02:27.420 But anyway
00:02:28.600 Alhamdulillah
00:02:29.100 I said there's usually a button
00:02:31.500 On that side
00:02:32.340 So
00:02:33.420 She goes okay
00:02:34.500 And I go okay
00:02:35.440 There's a box there
00:02:36.320 I go sister
00:02:36.840 Maybe press that button there
00:02:38.680 And the doors will open
00:02:40.060 And she goes
00:02:41.940 She goes and checks it
00:02:42.880 Boom
00:02:43.060 Alhamdulillah
00:02:43.560 The doors open
00:02:44.300 She comes in my car
00:02:46.080 I put the destination
00:02:47.560 It's like 45 minutes
00:02:48.800 And I'm thinking
00:02:49.300 Oh my gosh
00:02:50.460 I'm going to fall asleep
00:02:52.040 I don't know
00:02:52.820 I can't take
00:02:53.440 I don't know what I'm going to do
00:02:54.700 I'm going to have to stop halfway
00:02:55.800 And I can't drink coffee either
00:02:57.500 Because I'm fasting
00:02:58.160 And
00:03:00.500 So she jumps in my car
00:03:02.460 And I'm
00:03:04.500 Heading
00:03:05.640 But in my head I'm thinking
00:03:06.520 But I'm feeling so sleepy
00:03:07.940 Then she goes

00:03:23.860 Oh I wanted to fast
00:03:24.820 This month
00:03:27.080 But I couldn't

00:03:30.760 And she goes
00:03:32.080 I just love Islam
00:03:33.020 And I kind of
00:03:34.740 Started waking up
00:03:35.660 And I was like
00:03:36.160 Okay
00:03:36.600 And I was thinking
00:03:37.840 Wow
00:03:38.160 That's quite profound
00:03:39.260 She's like
00:03:40.460 You know
00:03:40.780 I fell in love with the religion
00:03:42.360 I love everything about it
00:03:44.280 I want to move to
00:03:45.540 Abu Dhabi
00:03:47.260 To get away from my bad friends
00:03:50.280 And I was like
00:03:50.740 Wow
00:03:51.240 Like she wants to
00:03:53.200 She wants to move
00:03:54.960 To another country
00:03:56.000 An Islamic country
00:03:56.860 Just to stay away from her bad friends
00:03:59.280 And get closer to Allah
00:04:00.840 And she's not even a Muslim
00:04:01.780 She's not a Muslim
00:04:03.220 And I was like
00:04:04.520 Okay this is interesting
00:04:05.360 And I was like
00:04:05.920 Carry on
00:04:06.980 And then she was like
00:04:07.800 That you know
00:04:08.980 She's really
00:04:09.520 You know
00:04:11.120 She's gone through depression
00:04:11.900 And she was feeling suicidal
00:04:13.080 And you know
00:04:14.720 That her
00:04:15.320 I hope she forgives me
00:04:17.440 She might see this video
00:04:18.480 Hopefully
00:04:20.100 Yeah she forgives me
00:04:21.040 There's nothing explicit about it
00:04:22.360 Like
00:04:22.880 She says that her father was killed
00:04:24.740 Etc
00:04:25.940 And you know
00:04:26.860 There's certain things
00:04:27.700 That she went in her life
00:04:28.620 Etc
00:04:30.220 Etc
00:04:30.620 And
00:04:32.040 And I was just telling her
00:04:33.440 You know
00:04:34.180 Depression sister
00:04:35.660 Is
00:04:36.000 You know
00:04:36.860 That's
00:04:37.440 Allah says in the Quran
00:04:38.460 You know
00:04:39.280 So I recited it and she was like
00:04:54.480 Can you say that again
00:04:56.080 So I recited it again
00:04:58.240 And
00:04:59.820 She's like
00:05:01.020 What does that mean
00:05:01.620 And I said
00:05:02.100 What that means is
00:05:03.500 Allah says in the Quran
00:05:04.220 That only with the remembrance of
00:05:06.320 Allah
00:05:07.000 Do hearts find peace
00:05:09.180 I said
00:05:10.320 We feed the body
00:05:11.640 Give it food
00:05:12.900 Everything
00:05:13.360 Why?
00:05:14.040 Because the body needs that to survive
00:05:15.320 But what about the soul?
00:05:18.440 So
00:05:18.740 Anyways
00:05:20.120 So I'm just talking to her

00:05:25.060 This is destiny
00:05:25.740 I don't believe in chances

00:05:28.140 I said
00:05:28.540 Sister I do dawah
00:05:29.280 Dawah means inviting people to Islam
00:05:30.320 I do this for
00:05:30.900 Like a living
00:05:32.060 Like this is what I do
00:05:32.940 You know
00:05:33.260 Like not living
00:05:34.120 But like I live for it
00:05:35.300 Inshallah

00:05:41.140 At this time
00:05:43.460 And

00:05:55.940 I was just like
00:05:56.540 Okay
00:05:56.880 And then
00:05:57.400 I was just trying to
00:05:58.080 I was saying to her

00:06:04.700 I know I love dark chocolate
00:06:05.980 Yeah
00:06:06.760 All I have to do is testify
00:06:08.280 And say

00:06:10.460 That's
00:06:11.520 That's all it
00:06:12.320 And
00:06:14.220 She was just asking questions
00:06:15.420 And she was like
00:06:15.920 You know
00:06:16.260 But
00:06:16.600 You know
00:06:17.500 I still have a bad habit
00:06:19.700 Of drinking
00:06:20.180 Etc
00:06:20.700 And
00:06:21.720 I can't be a Muslim yet

00:06:23.560 This is from shaitan sister

00:06:26.360 This is from shaitan
00:06:29.280 You can be a Muslim
00:06:30.580 You can be a Muslim
00:06:31.760 This is just a gradual step
00:06:33.420 As long as you come to Islam
00:06:35.200 These are gradual steps
00:06:36.440 Things that you can
00:06:37.100 Get rid of slowly
00:06:38.020 I know people
00:06:38.900 Certain things took them
00:06:39.900 A couple of years
00:06:40.560 To get over
00:06:41.060 To get
00:06:41.820 Get away
00:06:42.940 But this shouldn't stop you
00:06:44.660 This should not stop you
00:06:46.400 And
00:06:47.780 SubhanAllah
00:06:48.620 Brothers and sisters
00:06:49.520 SubhanAllah

00:06:51.320 When it comes to shahadah
00:06:52.220 I don't like forcing people

00:06:55.040 Trophy shahadah
00:06:55.600 Yeah

00:07:00.200 Max
00:07:00.540 Yeah

00:07:01.680 I don't want to get someone
00:07:02.460 To take this shahadah
00:07:03.400 And then they don't
00:07:04.180 Truly believe in it
00:07:04.960 This sister
