Ali Dawah - THOMAS'S PRAYS TO ALLAH - REACTION VIDEO

00:00:00.000 month of the muslim calendar historically it's the month during which

00:00:03.120 Allah started telling the prophet Muhammad the divine verses that would

00:00:06.240 eventually be written down as the Quran

00:00:09.760 I found a very very profound promises in Surah Baqarah I'm gonna finish with this

00:00:14.240 in Surah Baqarah verse 186

00:00:44.240 this journey this road that I travel on it all seems crazy over the years I

00:00:51.080 picked up thousands of tiger lungs inspired by my story from a juvenile when

00:00:56.780 my clothes had holes in the room and my afro was picky to the 90s

00:01:01.580 Moschino and Versace no laces in Arachis new millennium

00:01:07.120 Asalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi barakatuh brothers and sisters and dear friends

00:01:10.400 welcome to this video before I start I want to praise Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala the

00:01:13.160 most merciful the most just or praises glory and gratitude beyond him I came

00:01:16.340 across a very funny cute video and I mean cute in the content it's just like

00:01:20.580 melts your heart when you see it we're gonna come to it was actually quite funny

00:01:24.040 it's of a non-muslim trying fasting for the first time it's a four-minute video

00:01:28.520 we're gonna react to it but it's this is some very important lessons to be

00:01:32.060 learned of what he does yeah along that was the ninth month of the Muslim 1.00

00:01:37.940 calendar historically it's the month during which Allah started telling the 0.98

00:01:41.180 prophet Muhammad the divine verses that would eventually be written down as the

00:01:44.440 Quran the central text of Islam to observe Ramadan all adult Muslims are

00:01:49.220 required to fast every day from sunrise to sunset so it's like Lent except

00:01:53.540 instead of giving up one thing like chocolate you give up everything for an

00:01:57.840 entire month at least during the daylight at night you stuff face

00:02:01.240 which is sad we shouldn't really be stuffing our face in Ramadan you know

00:02:05.100 should be moderately but anyways it's home to one of the largest populations of

00:02:09.600 Arab Americans in the country the family I hung out with during Ramadan were

00:02:13.560 Lebanese American and so this is Thomas Morton okay he's he's the one who's trying

00:02:18.140 out yeah watch what he does their slang is accordingly Lebanese Michigan Arabic slang

00:02:24.180 time for prayer Thomas we're just gonna do a rinse oh okay

00:02:29.180 just for purity reasons you keep you know water is the ultimate purifier right yeah so the first word

00:02:35.060 is uh wadu wadu is a uh kind of a ritual cleansing you do before you pray as a Muslim it's also a

00:02:43.100 cleansing you do if you uh go into a mosque do anything kind of like holy or um

00:02:48.100 Allah oriented it's a way of cleaning yourself especially if you have uh broken 0.96

00:02:53.240 wind urinated or had sex anytime since your last prayer 0.77

00:02:57.500 yes sir hope it doesn't confuse that with wadu some kind of black magic 0.98

00:03:01.140 I would have been laughing at me it's not looking up like a wadu anyways 1.00

00:03:04.780 that would require you to redo it those being urinating using number two got it

00:03:10.940 breaking wind really yes yeah so you break wind you have to redo it you always use your right

00:03:16.220 hand to touch the water and that doesn't come from the Quran per se but Arabic culture in which um 0.86

00:03:21.420 people customarily wipe their ass the left hand or used to and so the left hand is considered unclean 0.88

00:03:28.140 and uh it's more from the sunnah i'll say it's from the sunnah the kind of thing you stick into 0.98

00:03:35.340 and then i grab the water and you want to watch the right arm and then switch over to the left side

00:03:43.100 okay guys now this is the funniest bit here okay so

00:04:02.380 so

00:04:27.100 Yeah Allah, it's Thomas

00:04:28.300 Just work it out

00:04:30.180 Okay, let's call this another thing

00:04:32.140 I don't have any point to it

00:04:34.420 You're going to help me especially with the first

00:04:36.300 It's kind of tough

00:04:37.420 But I guess that's the point

00:04:38.900 Anyway, I hope this goes well

00:04:41.620 I'll be like that

00:04:42.420 Thanks, Thomas

00:04:43.900 Now guys, if you notice

00:04:46.980 What he says there

00:04:48.980 So if we go to like

00:04:49.800 Hey Allah, it's Thomas

00:04:51.260 So you can see

00:04:52.020 It's always funny

00:04:53.040 It's funny

00:04:54.020 Not in a mocking way

00:04:55.540 In a nice way

00:04:58.340 Like, you know

00:04:59.060 I don't know what word to use

00:05:00.360 It's just

00:05:00.960 So like, you know

00:05:02.020 Miskeen 0.81

00:05:02.680 It's such an innocent way

00:05:03.760 Innocent way, that's the way

00:05:04.600 And he goes

00:05:05.780 Hey Allah, it's Thomas

00:05:07.440 Yeah

00:05:07.960 Now this links to perfect ayah

00:05:10.300 Which I know

00:05:11.080 And look at the ayah before it 0.99

00:05:12.880 It's quite profound

00:05:13.480 It connects very good

00:05:14.140 This is what I found

00:05:14.880 Hey Allah, it's Thomas

00:05:16.040 Just working on figuring out

00:05:18.520 This whole Islam thing 1.00

00:05:19.480 Yeah

00:05:19.820 So you can see he's genuinely like

00:05:21.080 Looking

00:05:21.300 Trying to understand it

00:05:23.220 If you have any pointers

00:05:25.100 That could help me

00:05:25.760 Especially with the fasting

00:05:26.540 By the way he's asking

00:05:27.500 Yeah

00:05:28.400 Like he's basically

00:05:29.540 Looking for guidance

00:05:30.260 That's asking for guidance

00:05:31.360 And you're literally

00:05:32.160 Asking for guidance

00:05:33.000 Yeah

00:05:33.860 And we don't know

00:05:34.260 What's in the sal

00:05:34.600 We take it as

00:05:35.200 You know

00:05:35.400 To us

00:05:35.740 It's in an innocent way

00:05:37.040 It's a bit funny

00:05:37.800 But it's amazing

00:05:39.620 Yeah

00:05:40.100 If you have any pointers

00:05:41.000 That could help me

00:05:41.580 Especially with the fasting

00:05:42.400 It's kind of tough

00:05:44.160 Being honest with your Lord

00:05:45.300 Yeah, it's tough

00:05:45.880 And that's how it's going to be

00:05:46.720 In life

00:05:47.100 There's going to be tests

00:05:47.860 That are going to be tough

00:05:48.580 But

00:05:49.360 I guess that's the point

00:05:50.980 Yeah

00:05:51.120 So he's saying

00:05:51.680 Help me out

00:05:52.380 It's quite profound

00:05:53.320 He's saying

00:05:53.900 Oh Allah

00:05:54.380 It's hard what I'm doing

00:05:56.080 But help me through

00:05:56.720 And that's what it is

00:05:57.360 You're going to be tested

00:05:58.100 Stop

00:05:58.400 People are thinking

00:05:59.080 You shouldn't be tested

00:05:59.700 Oh why am I going through

00:06:00.500 So many trials

00:06:01.080 You're going to go through

00:06:02.500 Those trials

00:06:02.900 But ask Allah

00:06:04.640 To make it easy

00:06:05.480 Yeah

00:06:05.940 Anyway

00:06:06.860 Hope this goes well

00:06:07.560 Hope you like it

00:06:08.220 And I love this

00:06:08.860 Thanks

00:06:09.500 Thomas

00:06:10.080 It's like writing

00:06:10.580 A letter to Allah 0.96

00:06:11.140 Now let's go to this

00:06:12.300 Following verse

00:06:12.720 I found a very very

00:06:13.620 Profound promises

00:06:14.160 In Surah Baqarah

00:06:14.880 I'm going to finish with this

00:06:16.060 In Surah Baqarah

00:06:17.760 Verse 186

00:06:18.620 Because I knew this ayah 1.00

00:06:19.440 I'll just scroll up

00:06:20.980 Very profound

00:06:22.260 So in this ayah

00:06:23.100 It says

00:06:23.360 When my servants

00:06:24.180 Ask about me

00:06:25.440 Yeah

00:06:25.640 Ask about me

00:06:28.080 Then tell them

00:06:28.860 That I am near

00:06:29.900 I respond to the call

00:06:31.800 Of the one who prays to me

00:06:34.120 To me

00:06:35.280 So they should respond to me

00:06:37.420 And have faith in me

00:06:38.700 So that they may

00:06:39.540 They may be on the right path

00:06:41.180 Right

00:06:41.560 Now

00:06:43.520 This is very profound

00:06:44.600 Because if you go to verse 185

00:06:46.700 Yeah

00:06:47.460 If you can see

00:06:48.240 Because he's doing this

00:06:49.020 What in Ramadan

00:06:49.760 The verse

00:06:51.460 This ayah 0.98

00:06:52.460 This couple of ayah 0.97

00:06:53.020 Is back and forth

00:06:53.560 185 to 187

00:06:54.900 Yeah

00:06:55.360 It's about Ramadan 0.99

00:06:56.420 The month of Ramadan 0.55

00:06:57.240 Is the one in which

00:06:58.220 The Quran was revealed 0.61

00:06:59.040 As guidance for mankind

00:07:00.160 And as clear signs

00:07:01.080 That show the right way

00:07:01.980 And distinguish between

00:07:02.820 Right and wrong

00:07:03.540 So those of you

00:07:04.600 Who witnessed a month

00:07:05.400 Must fast in it

00:07:06.320 But the one who is sick

00:07:07.700 Or is in a journey

00:07:08.440 Should fast as much

00:07:09.340 As from the other days

00:07:10.220 As he missed

00:07:10.800 Allah intends to provide

00:07:12.340 Ease for you

00:07:13.000 And does not intend

00:07:14.120 To create hardship

00:07:14.960 For you

00:07:15.780 All this is that

00:07:16.720 You may complete

00:07:17.620 The number of fasts

00:07:18.620 As prescribed

00:07:19.240 And proclaim the

00:07:20.420 Takbir of Allah 0.96

00:07:21.260 For having guided you

00:07:22.620 And so that you

00:07:23.400 May be grateful

00:07:24.160 And then the following verse goes

00:07:25.680 When my servants

00:07:26.700 Ask you about me

00:07:27.660 Then tell them

00:07:28.800 That I am near

00:07:29.520 I respond to the call

00:07:30.820 Of the one

00:07:31.500 He prays to me

00:07:32.980 Alone

00:07:33.340 Not to Jesus

00:07:34.280 Not to Muhammad 0.99

00:07:35.100 Peace be upon them

00:07:35.800 Not to this guy

00:07:36.660 Not to that person

00:07:37.640 So they should respond

00:07:39.580 To me

00:07:39.880 And have faith in me

00:07:40.860 So that they may be

00:07:41.620 On the right path

00:07:42.360 That is profound

00:07:43.880 Yeah

00:07:44.220 Yes

00:07:44.780 So as you can see

00:07:45.760 So even though here

00:07:46.420 The word is used

00:07:47.020 Ibadi

00:07:47.560 Like my servants

00:07:48.380 So

00:07:48.720 Okay

00:07:50.100 They're talking about someone

00:07:51.040 What if someone

00:07:51.600 Is not a Muslim 1.00

00:07:52.720 But they're genuinely

00:07:53.440 Asking Allah

00:07:53.960 There's a whole

00:07:54.340 Discussion on that

00:07:55.340 So you can see here

00:07:56.720 How that verse

00:07:57.760 SubhanAllah

00:07:58.160 Because he's asking

00:07:59.020 Directly to Allah 0.86

00:07:59.900 He's not a Muslim 1.00

00:08:01.200 But he's asking

00:08:02.080 And that reminds me

00:08:03.520 If Thomas is watching this

00:08:04.480 If somehow

00:08:04.880 You know if Thomas

00:08:05.420 Might be watching this

00:08:05.940 Thomas

00:08:06.180 You know what you've did there

00:08:07.740 Is that

00:08:08.200 We assume that you're genuine

00:08:10.060 And if you are

00:08:10.740 Allah will guide you

00:08:12.560 Because you're genuine

00:08:13.300 You ask for guidance

00:08:14.100 And we ask every person

00:08:15.460 Who's looking into Islam 1.00

00:08:16.480 To do this

00:08:17.160 Because this is a covenant

00:08:18.260 Between you and the road

00:08:18.960 Oh Allah

00:08:19.820 Guide me

00:08:20.600 If you are there

00:08:21.160 If this religion is the truth

00:08:22.200 Guide me

00:08:23.000 And Allah will send you 1.00

00:08:24.620 Guidance and signs

00:08:25.820 Then it's upon you

00:08:26.680 To take them

00:08:27.240 And reject them

00:08:27.880 Brothers and sisters

00:08:29.000 I found that amazing

00:08:30.560 I found it very

00:08:31.460 Sweet to see

00:08:33.160 And his innocence

00:08:34.220 And his asking

00:08:34.820 I'm saying thanks Thomas

00:08:35.860 You know

00:08:36.160 As a non-Muslimus

00:08:38.160 And trying his best

00:08:39.000 To connect

00:08:39.540 To Allah

00:08:40.320 Where Thomas

00:08:41.800 If there's any questions

00:08:42.580 You ask

00:08:42.860 If you come across this video

00:08:43.760 If any of you guys know

00:08:44.900 His links

00:08:45.260 Or whatever

00:08:45.580 Thomas I'm here for you

00:08:47.180 If there's any questions

00:08:47.700 You want to ask

00:08:48.380 Do ask please

00:08:49.800 Brothers and sisters

00:08:50.380 I thought I'd share that with you

00:08:51.320 Till next time

00:08:52.220 We ask Allah

00:08:52.620 To guide us

00:08:53.640 Keep us on the

00:08:54.180 Sarat al-Mustakim

00:08:54.980 Make us among those

00:08:56.680 Who are

00:08:57.580 On the haq 0.98

00:08:59.560 And die

00:09:00.020 Have a good ending 0.99

00:09:00.640 Till next time

00:09:01.400 Assalamualaikum

00:09:06.360 It all seems crazy

00:09:10.580 Of tiger lungs

00:09:13.240 From a juvenile

00:09:14.500 Where my clothes

00:09:37.780 I don't know when I'm going

00:09:40.000 But I hope that angels close by

00:09:42.740 Education never mentions
