00:00:00.000 I am going to discuss two topics which I see
00:00:29.400 that there is a trouble in the ummah
00:00:31.500 you kind of touched up on it
00:00:34.220 but it is a reminder you gave us yesterday
00:00:35.880 if you remember when I was speaking
00:00:37.920 young zealous brothers
00:00:40.140 they always come to the religion 0.98
00:00:43.000 and you come full force
00:00:45.500 and sometimes they want to do good
00:00:47.740 and I have no doubt
00:00:48.540 most of them they have this correct intention
00:00:50.320 of doing things the right way
00:00:51.440 but however the harshness
00:00:53.680 the manners are really lacking
00:00:56.840 and unfortunately I speak to a lot of brothers as well
00:00:59.420 who are known in the YouTube as well
00:01:01.200 where they say my non-Muslim friends come to me
00:01:03.440 and say is this what you're part with
00:01:04.940 like is this what you go through
00:01:07.140 like you just made for example
00:01:08.540 one mistake on YouTube
00:01:10.300 and then you got this many attacks
00:01:12.060 like what advice would you give
00:01:14.520 and this question both of you
00:01:15.720 to these young brothers
00:01:17.480 how can they calm down a bit
00:01:19.460 and understand that
00:01:20.900 yes they're trying to enjoy good and forbid evil
00:01:23.260 but there is a time and a place
00:01:25.360 to do that thing at the right time
00:01:27.160 so what kind of advice would you give to the youth
00:01:30.120 both sisters and brothers out there
00:01:31.440 I think from
00:01:34.060 like I'm not in that much of a position
00:01:36.380 I don't really know that much about that
00:01:38.720 but for me it's
00:01:40.340 the manners and the character is so important
00:01:43.540 especially in front of the non-Muslims 1.00
00:01:45.080 that you know
00:01:46.040 even though you don't realise
00:01:48.320 sometimes they look at everything you do
00:01:49.800 even the way you dress
00:01:51.520 or you know
00:01:53.120 the way you talk
00:01:53.820 and you know
00:01:54.540 it's so important
00:01:56.060 from a Muslim point of view
00:01:58.520 that you
00:01:58.920 when you talk to the non-Muslims 1.00
00:02:00.220 that
00:02:00.380 or when you're even around
00:02:01.760 if you're walking out the room
00:02:02.660 that there's a
00:02:03.280 there's a sort of demeanour
00:02:04.760 and if you really
00:02:06.140 you know
00:02:06.760 want to show them the sunnah
00:02:08.200 and you know
00:02:09.320 things like that
00:02:09.880 then
00:02:10.140 a lot of the time
00:02:11.580 I know Islam tells us anyway 1.00
00:02:12.980 but you have to be on your best behaviour
00:02:14.120 most of the time
00:02:14.820 you know
00:02:16.000 even away from
00:02:16.940 when you're on your own
00:02:18.680 and things like that
00:02:19.340 so
00:02:19.620 you know
00:02:21.080 a lot of the guys
00:02:22.120 they look at us
00:02:23.040 there's a few of us
00:02:24.300 Muslim players now
00:02:25.220 in the side
00:02:26.100 Alhamdulillah
00:02:26.420 and when they look at us
00:02:27.760 we know that they are
00:02:28.720 not judging us
00:02:30.440 but they're just checking us out
00:02:31.540 to see what
00:02:32.180 what kind of people we are really
00:02:33.580 and things
00:02:34.020 and you know
00:02:34.840 over time
00:02:35.280 Alhamdulillah
00:02:35.680 they trust us
00:02:36.860 and you know
00:02:38.000 like I said earlier
00:02:38.640 we get involved with the
00:02:39.720 with the jokes
00:02:40.920 and things like that
00:02:42.160 and in most cases
00:02:43.740 we get involved with them
00:02:44.560 and they enjoy
00:02:45.960 enjoy the company
00:02:46.880 and a lot of them
00:02:47.500 will come up to us
00:02:48.260 and we didn't realise
00:02:48.900 you know
00:02:49.240 Muslims were
00:02:50.460 you know
00:02:51.020 quite a good laugh
00:02:52.260 at times
00:02:52.700 and I'm not saying
00:02:54.200 like I'm a great laugh
00:02:55.000 but I know
00:02:55.900 I know a lot of the guys
00:02:56.960 enjoy you know
00:02:58.120 our company
00:02:59.000 and things like that
00:03:00.000 and you spend so much time
00:03:00.820 with them
00:03:01.080 that you have to
00:03:02.460 be on your best behaviour
00:03:03.940 as much as you can
00:03:04.720 I think if I can add
00:03:08.960 that I appreciate
00:03:09.780 what Moeen has said
00:03:11.040 because he probably
00:03:12.360 gets a lot of flack
00:03:13.320 from the Muslims themselves
00:03:14.540 and what I want to say
00:03:15.680 look we're living
00:03:16.400 in an environment
00:03:17.360 that is not
00:03:18.380 an Islamic environment
00:03:19.480 you need to understand
00:03:20.640 you're living
00:03:21.580 in a multicultural
00:03:22.840 multi-religious
00:03:25.160 country
00:03:26.920 and you're just
00:03:28.400 one
00:03:28.880 of the so many
00:03:30.140 that exist
00:03:30.740 you need to fulfill
00:03:31.980 the rights of
00:03:32.880 everyone out there
00:03:34.340 and the problem is
00:03:35.680 we tend to forget
00:03:37.180 that there are
00:03:37.860 different types of people
00:03:38.980 we need to talk to them
00:03:40.500 in a positive way
00:03:42.180 go back to the sunnah 0.93
00:03:43.580 of the Prophet
00:03:44.120 sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
00:03:45.260 he always encouraged people
00:03:47.720 it was so positive
00:03:49.260 it was such a beautiful
00:03:50.440 encouragement
00:03:51.000 there was a time
00:03:52.100 when some people
00:03:52.700 came to his house
00:03:53.600 they found out
00:03:54.460 about his acts of worship
00:03:55.660 and they decided
00:03:56.680 that they want to act
00:03:57.820 or they want to fulfill
00:03:59.420 acts of worship
00:04:00.220 just like that
00:04:01.060 and so they became
00:04:02.220 strict on themselves
00:04:03.120 and the Prophet
00:04:03.660 sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
00:04:04.260 heard about how
00:04:05.080 one says
00:04:05.640 I'm not going to eat meat
00:04:06.940 the other one says
00:04:07.540 I'm not going to touch
00:04:08.320 my wife
00:04:08.800 the other one says
00:04:09.380 I'm going to fast
00:04:10.020 and so on
00:04:10.800 and when he addressed
00:04:12.460 the situation
00:04:13.260 he said you know
00:04:14.620 ma baalu aqwaamin 0.83
00:04:16.760 you know
00:04:17.240 what is it with people
00:04:18.580 who say this
00:04:19.400 and that
00:04:19.880 he didn't say
00:04:20.760 this man come here
00:04:22.020 that man you're doomed
00:04:23.080 this one here
00:04:23.720 you are like this
00:04:24.320 it's a weakness we have
00:04:25.800 he did not have that
00:04:26.800 we have this weakness
00:04:28.260 because
00:04:28.560 if there were more
00:04:30.200 than those three
00:04:30.920 they would all benefit
00:04:32.100 from this common term
00:04:33.600 that's being used
00:04:34.520 but if they were
00:04:35.920 if we had to use
00:04:37.740 the one term
00:04:38.460 we would actually
00:04:39.260 ignore the fact
00:04:40.440 that so many others
00:04:41.320 would benefit
00:04:41.960 and if we were to say
00:04:42.920 names
00:04:43.300 a lot of the times
00:04:44.340 people become
00:04:45.120 hard to say
00:04:46.440 what
00:04:46.760 what did this guy
00:04:47.520 say about me
00:04:48.140 I'm going to fix him
00:04:49.220 I'm going to show him
00:04:49.980 so your intention
00:04:51.060 needs to be right
00:04:51.880 knowledge
00:04:52.720 and this is a
00:04:54.180 controversial statement
00:04:55.200 knowledge comes
00:04:56.840 with a lot of arrogance
00:04:58.040 just like money
00:04:59.020 did you hear what I said
00:05:01.080 if you don't check it
00:05:03.040 you can be the most 0.99
00:05:04.180 arrogant person ever 0.98
00:05:05.300 because you know
00:05:05.900 you know
00:05:06.300 and you know
00:05:07.120 that you know
00:05:07.660 that you know
00:05:08.300 so you look at someone
00:05:11.480 and say
00:05:11.660 ah by the way
00:05:12.240 what do these guys know
00:05:13.000 nothing 0.84
00:05:13.380 they're not even Muslims 1.00
00:05:14.460 that's how it ended
00:05:15.560 because why
00:05:16.660 that was the knowledge
00:05:18.440 you had
00:05:18.820 arrogance
00:05:19.440 but when true knowledge
00:05:21.680 humbles you
00:05:22.360 when you practice
00:05:23.340 according to it
00:05:24.280 and you understand
00:05:25.440 I know of a certain brother
00:05:26.840 he was hard
00:05:28.200 he used to call people names
00:05:29.680 and take them out of the fold
00:05:31.080 and so on and so forth
00:05:32.060 Allah tested him 0.63
00:05:33.280 with his own children
00:05:34.120 leaving the fold of Islam 1.00
00:05:35.240 and then I happened
00:05:37.600 to chat with him
00:05:38.280 and I told him
00:05:38.760 brother you're so hard
00:05:39.620 and so he said
00:05:40.340 I've learned my lesson
00:05:41.200 I was pointing at everyone else
00:05:43.340 and Allah tested me
00:05:44.240 in my own home
00:05:44.980 so this is the challenge
00:05:46.900 this is what Allah
00:05:47.660 probably
00:05:48.180 made him
00:05:49.720 go through this
00:05:50.440 to realize
00:05:51.080 that he's being too hard
00:05:52.380 on everyone else
00:05:53.200 the Quran says
00:05:54.840 to Muhammad
00:05:55.660 sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
00:05:56.320 Allah says
00:05:56.840 walau kunta faddan
00:05:58.100 ghalidhal qalbi
00:05:59.600 lan faddu min hawlika
00:06:01.020 you know
00:06:01.680 if you were
00:06:02.380 hard harsh
00:06:03.780 hard hearted
00:06:04.760 and you had to be
00:06:05.820 hard in your wording
00:06:07.160 and in the way
00:06:07.920 you dealt with them
00:06:09.440 they would have dispersed
00:06:10.800 from around you
00:06:12.040 they would disperse
00:06:12.860 so this goes to show
00:06:14.160 today we need
00:06:15.180 a lot of convincing
00:06:16.840 we need to talk
00:06:17.740 to people
00:06:18.140 it's no longer
00:06:18.720 like a long time ago
00:06:19.520 we used to say
00:06:20.020 fulfill your salah
00:06:21.160 they say
00:06:21.480 okay okay
00:06:21.880 allahu akbar
00:06:22.520 no no
00:06:22.980 it's no longer
00:06:23.520 like that
00:06:23.980 now fulfill your salah
00:06:25.560 you can expect
00:06:26.700 a child to say
00:06:27.220 why
00:06:27.560 what do I have
00:06:28.440 in it
00:06:28.780 that's what's happening
00:06:30.040 you can't just slap 0.56
00:06:31.340 them like I told you 0.97
00:06:32.100 to slap me
00:06:32.640 no we still belong
00:06:33.640 to the previous generation
00:06:34.760 we will accept a slap
00:06:36.340 but they won't
00:06:37.380 they won't
00:06:38.120 so this is why
00:06:39.160 we need to be humble
00:06:40.040 I believe there is
00:06:40.820 great damage
00:06:41.600 when people become
00:06:42.700 a little bit popular
00:06:43.480 and they use
00:06:44.100 that popularity
00:06:44.740 to attack
00:06:46.000 rather than to build
00:06:47.140 remember this
00:06:47.920 I mean look at
00:06:48.980 what's happening
00:06:49.500 across the world
00:06:50.300 at the moment
00:06:50.780 we're struggling
00:06:51.360 because people
00:06:52.340 prefer to destroy
00:06:53.680 rather than to build
00:06:54.660 and they justify
00:06:56.440 it no matter what
00:06:57.700 and I always say
00:06:58.860 people say
00:06:59.360 what about these killings
00:07:00.600 I say we are against
00:07:01.500 all killings
00:07:02.460 no matter who
00:07:03.080 is perpetrating them
00:07:04.000 it's dangerous
00:07:04.860 it's detrimental
00:07:05.580 we prefer to build
00:07:06.720 to resolve the matter
00:07:07.900 to solve it
00:07:08.540 I'd rather sit with you
00:07:09.500 I'd rather try to do things
00:07:10.620 and people say
00:07:11.400 no ways
00:07:11.840 you don't know
00:07:12.240 what you're talking about
00:07:12.940 be consistent
00:07:14.040 continue in the right path
00:07:16.560 don't lose hope
00:07:17.960 when you know
00:07:18.680 be focused
00:07:19.680 and like I was telling you
00:07:21.440 yesterday
00:07:21.920 and a few of the brothers
00:07:23.000 who we were talking to
00:07:23.960 today
00:07:25.300 it's become
00:07:26.420 very difficult
00:07:27.920 to remain
00:07:28.620 on the moderate path
00:07:29.740 it's very easy
00:07:31.740 because we are being
00:07:32.880 bombarded from
00:07:33.760 two extremes
00:07:34.680 to actually fall
00:07:35.980 when you're doing
00:07:36.800 something right
00:07:37.560 and you're on
00:07:38.460 the moderate path
00:07:39.280 when I say
00:07:39.720 moderate path
00:07:40.300 I don't mean
00:07:41.100 you've given up
00:07:41.680 your deen
00:07:42.080 no
00:07:42.360 I mean
00:07:43.200 the way you
00:07:44.300 treat others
00:07:45.020 and the way
00:07:45.500 you carry yourself
00:07:46.520 the way you
00:07:47.000 look at others
00:07:47.620 how you want
00:07:48.220 to present
00:07:48.620 the deen
00:07:49.020 to them
00:07:49.380 so there are
00:07:50.340 people who bash
00:07:51.360 and they tell you
00:07:52.360 you're so wrong
00:07:53.300 until you bash
00:07:54.560 you've got to bash
00:07:55.540 just like we do
00:07:56.400 and if you just
00:07:57.260 remain focused
00:07:58.040 ignore
00:07:58.520 ignore
00:07:58.980 ignore
00:07:59.320 it's so difficult
00:08:00.400 to be on this
00:08:01.080 middle path
00:08:01.620 because on the other
00:08:02.660 hand there are
00:08:03.140 people who will
00:08:03.700 also call you
00:08:04.540 names
00:08:04.960 while you're on
00:08:05.680 the middle path
00:08:06.180 to sway you
00:08:07.100 that way
00:08:07.580 and my advice
00:08:08.760 neither sway
00:08:09.440 this way
00:08:09.880 nor that way
00:08:10.620 remain on the path
00:08:11.720 remain focused
00:08:12.480 keep on giving people
00:08:13.580 this hope
00:08:14.080 and inshallah
00:08:15.020 you will see
00:08:15.620 the result
00:08:16.240 by the will of
00:08:17.140 Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala 0.81
00:08:18.100 look at these faces
00:08:19.080 look at these
00:08:19.840 beautiful people
00:08:20.980 why do you think
00:08:21.840 why do you think
00:08:21.860 they're here
00:08:22.360 all of them
00:08:23.520 are here
00:08:23.940 to be inspired
00:08:25.220 to get a good word
00:08:26.780 to feel like
00:08:27.680 Allah loves them
00:08:28.640 as they walk
00:08:29.540 out of here
00:08:30.080 to feel good
00:08:31.060 imagine if we had
00:08:32.120 to come here
00:08:32.620 and make them
00:08:33.280 feel like
00:08:33.820 they were already
00:08:34.600 going to hell
00:08:35.440 subhanallah 1.00
00:08:36.080 you know you guys
00:08:37.260 doomed
00:08:37.920 that's it
00:08:38.520 every one of you
00:08:39.820 watch out
00:08:40.500 you're gonna go
00:08:41.100 why should I even
00:08:42.260 say that
00:08:42.720 I prefer
00:08:43.860 especially in this
00:08:44.880 world
00:08:45.160 to choose
00:08:47.400 the prophetic
00:08:48.480 method of giving
00:08:49.400 people hope
00:08:50.200 and yes
00:08:51.000 there is a time
00:08:51.820 when warnings
00:08:52.720 do come through
00:08:53.340 if you notice
00:08:53.800 sometimes
00:08:54.280 when I word
00:08:55.220 when I word it
00:08:56.100 I see who I'm
00:08:56.720 talking to
00:08:57.200 and I say
00:08:57.820 brothers and sisters
00:08:58.500 those who do good
00:08:59.360 will go to paradise
00:09:00.200 and then when I see
00:09:02.160 who I'm talking to
00:09:02.820 a group of youngsters
00:09:03.500 and so on
00:09:04.120 and I say
00:09:04.740 and those who don't
00:09:05.620 they will go elsewhere
00:09:06.640 you heard me say that
00:09:08.080 what does elsewhere

00:09:16.280 to hellfire

00:09:20.880 we got it
00:09:22.220 in a beautiful way
00:09:23.260 but we hit it
00:09:24.180 exactly where
00:09:24.940 it's supposed to be
00:09:25.720 I don't need to say

00:09:31.300 there is a place
00:09:32.280 and a time
00:09:32.960 to say it that way
00:09:34.500 first you need to
00:09:36.040 win the people
00:09:36.640 you need to understand
00:09:37.620 that the people are
00:09:38.860 you know
00:09:39.800 what is keeping them
00:09:40.520 on the deen
00:09:40.980 as a famous person
00:09:42.220 or anyone who's popular
00:09:43.500 it's easy for you
00:09:44.380 to sit behind the screen
00:09:45.500 to sit behind the camera
00:09:47.380 no one knows
00:09:48.380 what exactly
00:09:49.360 you go through
00:09:49.940 in your life
00:09:50.440 and you're just
00:09:50.800 bombarding everybody
00:09:51.900 you don't know
00:09:52.540 what they are going
00:09:53.160 through in their lives
00:09:53.900 I tell you one thing
00:09:55.400 brother Ali
00:09:55.920 my travels across
00:09:57.180 the globe
00:09:57.720 have softened me
00:09:58.680 in a big way
00:09:59.500 because I've seen
00:10:00.520 people from
00:10:01.200 different walks of life
00:10:02.580 trying to please Allah 0.99
00:10:03.660 and I've realized
00:10:04.640 those who haven't
00:10:05.340 traveled and seen
00:10:06.260 and you know
00:10:06.960 witnessed what
00:10:07.760 everyone is doing
00:10:08.680 sometimes they don't
00:10:09.960 appreciate the
00:10:10.840 circumstances
00:10:11.440 surrounding the
00:10:12.540 person's
00:10:13.560 you know
00:10:14.000 life
00:10:14.640 and they start
00:10:15.580 saying statements
00:10:16.640 that are very
00:10:17.400 very hurtful
00:10:18.260 so if you choose
00:10:19.480 beautiful words
00:10:20.420 inshallah
00:10:21.020 you will be able
00:10:22.060 to touch people
00:10:23.040 in a much much
00:10:23.860 better way
00:10:24.360 may Allah forgive me
00:10:25.780 for taking so long
