00:00:03.520 etc where there are women who are dressed inappropriate whatever you're going through
00:00:06.580 of course that's your journey that's what it is but doing it publicly is unacceptable
00:00:10.880 did you guys know the definition of emergency is a serious situation that requires immediate action
00:00:18.460 imagine your loved ones under rubble in an earthquake or bombs being dropped in gaza
00:00:23.140 or in yemen or in afghanistan where there's an earthquake brown sisters we're working with one
00:00:27.920 to get immediate relief to those who are in need please go to the link and donate whatever you
00:00:32.360 can inshallah and let this be a sadaqa jari that you was for your use there for your brothers and
00:00:36.760 sisters when they needed you the most assalamualaikum warahmatullahi barakatuh brothers and sisters
00:00:41.200 and dear friends so i want to do a video today subhanallah about our brother dawud savage now
00:00:45.940 brother dawud was somebody who would do skits on uh youtube um i wouldn't say reminders but he would
00:00:50.240 do skits you know about jinns and the daily reminds etc giving salam whatever it is for that matter and
00:00:55.180 built a big audience big big audience over a million subscribers on youtube and he was very
00:00:58.920 very active on instagram as well and if i'm not mistaken maybe tiktok and obviously we all get
00:01:02.920 trialed and tested recently on instagram obviously he has been involved in some entrepreneurship kind
00:01:07.520 of work etc where there are women who are dressed inappropriate he uses music it's a lot more dunia
00:01:12.860 going on etc and people are obviously upset you go to his comment section and people are like oh my
00:01:17.280 gosh you want the old dawud back what happened to you money fame got to you all this kind of stuff
00:01:21.620 these are firstly accusations okay we cannot really say that okay you cannot make this yes of course
00:01:25.160 we judge was from a parent but to say that yeah you sold your dean you can't say that you don't
00:01:28.960 know if he's not praying subhanallah how could you make this assumption just because he does
00:01:31.760 certain things that are not permissible now all of a sudden all his iman is in question you can't
00:01:35.540 really say that guys subhanallah yeah i spoke to him and i reached out to him and i said aki i'm
00:01:38.960 here for you i understand if you're going through something whatever it is for that matter and i'll
00:01:41.640 be honest with you i was really amazed in his reply where he was like basically saying that the
00:01:44.980 reason i was thinking why is he leaving those comments and he was like you know what they are
00:01:47.660 right there is you know he's like i don't want to he goes even if you do a video bashing me he goes i can't
00:01:50.980 blame you and i was like bro i'm not going to do that i'm not known to do that i've always reached out
00:01:53.960 to people busy fuzzy troop adam saleh you know uh dina tokyo uh all these sisters i've always tried
00:01:58.980 to reach out to them and reason with them unless they become arrogant but subhanallah i didn't see
00:02:01.960 that in him so the point is what brothers sisters allah subhanallah says in the quran we have found
00:02:05.640 you lost and guided you when you become religious you start to there's two issues here number one
00:02:09.560 looking up to people of religious figure and making them like holy that proper holy and they can
00:02:13.440 never make mistakes expecting too much from them number one now it's not really your fault because
00:02:17.080 it's also the fault of the individual and when you can't live up to that that eats you alive and
00:02:20.780 when that eats you alive you have to make a choice can i live by this standard or
00:02:23.900 i can't and then you have to pick one or the other otherwise it eats you up alive so this is
00:02:27.880 uh one issue number the second issue is arrogance when we become practicing and we think and when
00:02:32.480 you think that you have done this yourself credit belongs to allah allah is the one who guided you
00:02:36.460 yes allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is the one who guided you never forget that if you become arrogant allah
00:02:40.700 will hit you life will hit you okay many people get tested in different ways they think yeah i want
00:02:44.760 the manhaj on this etc wearing the thawb niqab alhamdulillah they think it's like a little uh movie for them
00:02:49.380 yeah i'm gonna go marry i'm gonna have a couple of wives and in the horses they have this dream
00:02:53.400 yeah and then they start looking down on others and allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sends them a test
00:02:57.760 that shakes their world and next thing you know from the niqab to the hijab to miniskirts the brother's
00:03:02.820 beard comes off and all this kind of stuff subhanahu wa ta'ala i've seen many people in my life who
00:03:06.360 would subhanahu wa ta'ala be hostile towards another brother like wallahi i've seen this where i don't want
00:03:11.020 to go into details where they will come and criticize a certain couple who's on youtube because then they were
00:03:14.340 married couples subhanahu wa ta'ala and this brother would come and say yeah this is a
00:03:17.420 he's like this he's done that look at them and then the next person is courting clubs a brother
00:03:22.680 will come and say this guy's not on the manhaj this guy's not on that and the next brother will
00:03:25.600 come and say i fell of din i don't play anymore i watch pornography and i'm addicted to masturbation
00:03:29.180 do you see what i'm saying anytime you become arrogant allah will humiliate you and humble you
00:03:33.740 and again i am not saying this applies to brother dawud the point i'm saying is this in the comment
00:03:37.200 section many people are disappointed we want the old dawud back all this kind of stuff you know
00:03:41.500 what happened to you the money the this and that this world is a fitna it can happen to any of us
00:03:46.140 but one thing you need to know is that don't become arrogant number two those people who are
00:03:50.360 like oh when the old dawud back etc you may be tested you may be tested we can all be tested we
00:03:55.260 can all fall short we are human beings and these are the things that keep us in check to give you a
00:03:59.540 reality check that allah subhanahu wa ta'ala once is the one that's in control and praises belong to
00:04:04.200 him this is what tawhid is you acknowledge that all goodness is from allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and
00:04:08.820 your hands what your hands brought forth sometimes brothers sisters is what we do to ourselves so i want to
00:04:13.140 say keep brother dawud in your prayers yes okay and of course what he is doing is absolutely not
00:04:17.700 permissible he knows that i don't need to repeat it for someone who knows and leaving those comments
00:04:21.340 not arrogantly deleting it yeah okay like other individuals he knows this is haram and we ask
00:04:25.800 allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to rectify his affairs and i mean like he's made it clear i mean it would be
00:04:30.260 nice if he'd done a video giving a clarification and say look guys sorry i'm going through something
00:04:33.100 whatever it is for that matter etc please don't follow me i'm good like if if i fell off deen like if i
00:04:37.340 may allah protect me if i fell off deen and i was not doing that anymore i'm assuming i hope that i
00:04:41.440 will do a video and say guys i'm in a bad place i'm not in the right place i'm telling you guys
00:04:44.800 the videos that you're going to see for etc i'm in a bad place and i'm coping do not watch those
00:04:48.220 videos do not support i don't support them i don't condone them it is haram whatever i'm just
00:04:52.080 using a mechanism a coping mechanism to get out of where i am and whatever i will make that
00:04:56.300 disclaimer not saying that he has to but that's all i'm going to say inshallah brothers sisters may
00:04:59.680 allah subhanahu wa ta'ala protect us all wallahi may allah grant us all a good ending that's what
00:05:03.900 really matters and the dunya is a fitna and a trial may allah protect us and the glamour and all that
00:05:08.160 kind of stuff wallahi it is it is it catches up with you bro i know when i was young and my friend
00:05:12.120 had a bmw convertible bro i was like what can i do to get this what can i just get this because
00:05:15.940 there's so much pressure peer pressure we all think we're free we're not what can i do to get this you
00:05:18.960 know and attract opposite gender you fall for it as a man our biggest weakness is that brother daud
00:05:23.860 may allah bless you may allah guide you but the thing is whatever you're going through of course
00:05:29.040 that's your journey that's what it is but doing it publicly is unacceptable yeah you have a
00:05:34.820 responsibility yeah you have a big platform that you've garnered millions of views and millions of
00:05:40.060 people watch your content you have a responsibility if there's something that you're going through then
00:05:44.360 with all due respect do it off camera have your thing you know rectify your intentions or whatnot
00:05:49.700 do not do it in front of the people yeah because this is a very big responsibility and this is to
00:05:55.340 whoever's out there when the when you do content publicly you're held publicly as well and the thing is
00:06:01.500 that this is it's it's simply not okay and the people in the comments that are messaging oh you
00:06:06.420 know you you did this and you've fallen off we want the old daud back good yeah that's good yeah if you
00:06:12.380 are making comments like that and you're encouraging the person to come back we need people like you and
00:06:17.040 with all due respect uh it is because of brothers that keep us in check as well but people there's
00:06:22.780 something in psychology called fundamental attribution error which sometimes is a mistake but some people
00:06:28.840 start attributing it to the character they're going deep and heavy that's not something that's helpful
00:06:34.000 in this situation what you do is you say look we want the other we want the old daud back you know
00:06:38.220 daud you know come back stop doing this sort of stuff and this and that some people saying like ali
00:06:42.540 said oh it's his religion no this is it like he's always been like this you don't know if you don't
00:06:47.320 know it's very interesting actually he released a video today uh in a rolls royce and he was like um if you
00:06:51.640 pray to raqab before fajr and he did that just yesterday yeah and uh so i don't know but again which is
00:06:57.140 also another thing that's very good that you touched upon that it's very important to do that
00:06:59.920 as well because i'm trying to come from like a different perspective but it's very important
00:07:03.380 not only that a lot of your followers feel like you know what when you was building your channel it
00:07:07.220 was all islamic content but then you get it and i'm not saying that is the case but they feel like
00:07:11.120 that they're like you know why is it that you know be dina tokyo these brothers etc they reach your
00:07:15.320 platform and then afterwards they just do you get it so i'm not saying you're doing that but that's why
00:07:18.820 people are upset and it's good they are trying to call you to inshallah you want to do that start a new
00:07:23.760 channel start a new channel that's separate build that up and see if you know people are gonna go
00:07:28.780 there don't use your islamic channel that you've and yeah and actually he hasn't on youtube but
00:07:33.280 instagram again he has on youtube he hasn't but yeah may allah protect you and that was a very
00:07:36.820 very good point assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
