SHNEAKO - SNEAKO interviews Muslim Undertaker

00:00:00.000 Why are you learning how to get to you? 1.00

00:00:01.660 Allah controls everything anyway, bro. 0.99

00:00:03.620 The sun came up today not because of me and you, but because Allah wanted it up. 0.95

00:00:11.040 Unless it concerns my religion, I don't care. 0.90

00:00:14.680 That body is about 10 centimeters away from your head. 0.99

00:00:17.920 How do you feel thinking that one day you two will be in the back of a hearse

00:00:22.660 and maybe your loved ones will be in the back of the car,

00:00:25.160 exactly like right now what we're doing?

00:00:27.680 I am someone who thinks about death constantly.

00:00:30.000 So, it's not that shocking to me, to be honest.

00:00:34.600 I forgot it was there.

00:00:38.400 Alright, so, this is the washroom.

00:00:41.800 This is basically where every single person here in Sydney, Australia,

00:00:45.800 even all the way some interstate die,

00:00:48.400 they come here, they get washed on this table.

00:00:51.000 This table here, doesn't matter if you're as big as the Warner,

00:00:55.000 or if you're that big, it'll still be strong.

00:00:57.600 This job is the washroom.

00:00:59.400 you can still see it's still got

00:01:01.760 it's still got the kamphur on it 0.91

00:01:04.280 the camphur

00:01:05.080 this is the camphur here

00:01:07.140 the prophet said

00:01:08.900 smell that

00:01:10.320 the prophet said use it on your deceased

00:01:13.720 it stops vermin

00:01:15.320 it's a nice smell, it dignifies the body

00:01:17.500 the whole thing with washing a body 0.64

00:01:19.680 in Islam is dignity 1.00

00:01:21.760 the body's dead 0.98

00:01:23.460 but because

00:01:25.640 all our life we lived with purity

00:01:27.920 When we pray, we make evolution, right?

00:01:29.880 We make wudu.

00:01:30.740 We can't pray without wudu.

00:01:32.560 If you don't have whatever, you've got to do busul.

00:01:35.180 So our life in Islam is always pure.

00:01:37.640 So we purify the body on this last day, 0.97

00:01:40.240 which is the worldly wash,

00:01:42.160 the worldly cafe,

00:01:43.840 the prayer,

00:01:45.120 and the burial back into dirt,

00:01:48.240 because from it we created you.

00:01:50.500 At that same time,

00:01:51.700 when the body here is being washed,

00:01:53.260 if me or you or whatever was being washed right now,

00:01:56.140 and our funeral is happening here

00:01:58.100 there will be another funeral happening

00:02:00.180 at the same time for your soul

00:02:01.880 that's the funeral by the angels

00:02:03.960 that's when they grab your soul

00:02:06.100 they wrap it with shroud from paradise

00:02:08.460 they wrap it from the perfumes of paradise

00:02:10.840 not the worldly perfume

00:02:11.780 and it goes up to the heavens

00:02:14.060 heaven by heaven

00:02:15.180 and that is when you're called by your real name

00:02:17.460 the honest one

00:02:19.400 the one they used to give sadaqah

00:02:21.200 the one they used to pray

00:02:22.060 whatever real name you are honoured by

00:02:24.340 is what they honour you by

00:02:25.580 And obviously it reaches to the highest point where our voice will say,

00:02:29.020 take it back down to the earth.

00:02:30.840 From it I created them, to it they shall return and from it they shall be resurrected.

00:02:35.320 Meaning that it coincides with our burial on the earth.

00:02:39.440 That is why at that point, when you're put into the grave, the grave will squeeze you.

00:02:44.420 We know the squeezing of the grave, the Prophet ﷺ said.

00:02:47.220 Nobody is going to be immune from the squeeze of the grave. 0.86

00:02:50.800 you know

00:02:53.340 the squeezing of the grave

00:02:56.220 as described by the prophet

00:02:57.520 he said

00:02:58.440 for the non-believer

00:03:00.680 it's like that 0.99

00:03:01.240 meaning your ribs crush

00:03:02.240 and for the believer

00:03:02.940 it's like a tight hug

00:03:03.820 from a mother who hasn't seen a child

00:03:05.540 for a long time

00:03:06.100 you know that nice hug

00:03:06.960 because it's welcoming you back

00:03:09.320 the earth is telling you

00:03:10.760 welcome back

00:03:11.300 like you were created for me

00:03:13.380 you returned back to me

00:03:14.500 and you'll be resurrected

00:03:15.740 one more time

00:03:16.440 and that's when the soul coincides

00:03:18.920 the hadith says

00:03:21.460 you'll be sat up

00:03:22.220 in what way

00:03:23.000 we don't know

00:03:23.460 we can't imagine it

00:03:24.280 with our brain

00:03:24.820 but you'll be sat up

00:03:26.200 and asked the questions

00:03:27.000 and those questions

00:03:28.340 are very easy to answer

00:03:29.320 even a non-Muslim 1.00

00:03:30.520 can answer them 1.00

00:03:31.260 who is your lord

00:03:32.260 who is your prophet 0.99

00:03:33.440 who is the man that came

00:03:34.760 and what is your book

00:03:35.760 you know

00:03:37.260 what is your religion

00:03:38.860 in other words

00:03:39.300 you can answer them easy

00:03:41.420 but in the grave

00:03:42.620 this doesn't talk

00:03:43.760 it's the way

00:03:45.100 you lived your life

00:03:45.760 it's the actions

00:03:47.140 you lived your life by

00:03:47.960 that were answered

00:03:48.480 in the grave 0.93

00:03:48.900 That's where people, subhanAllah, go off track because as smart as you think you are in this world, where you make a tactic for death, everybody wants to work out the cheat card for death, how I can live this life and then at the end turn back to Allah and repent and then make it. It doesn't work like that. 0.95

00:04:13.420 so allah says every soul will taste death he said taste if you see that word taste

00:04:20.860 so what does that indicate for us it didn't say every soul shall die because to die means that's

00:04:26.300 it end of story nothing else happens but tasting means there's something more to come because you

00:04:31.820 can taste sweetness you can taste bitterness that'll come according to the way you lived your

00:04:36.140 life you lived a sweet life your sweet death will be at the taste that's the taste of when you die

00:04:41.980 and if you live the bitter life then at the time of death it's a bitter death

00:04:45.340 and then you'll obviously it's temporary it's the passage that you're going to go through

00:04:49.500 into the next world so this this is the washing table obviously we wash with warm water we use

00:04:56.620 warm water when we wash the body is obviously treated with respect the order the private

00:05:03.500 area is always covered we use these black sheets just here so this is what covers the

00:05:11.340 body normally so that would go over you your clothes are all taken out you can see the lady

00:05:19.740 that was washed before everything she had on is in the bin and very minimal people are in here

00:05:26.220 and the washing begins the part that gets everybody man is the shroud our last clothing

00:05:33.260 so we'll just at the gym we pick the shirt i put my clothes on every day we have a wardrobe

00:05:38.380 but our final wardrobe whether you're rich or poor it's very similar to

00:05:43.900 ahram clothes right you know when you've done umrah or hajj you wear the two pieces

00:05:47.760 in death it's three pieces for a male five for a female because females have more

00:05:52.680 so it's same thing very similar basically that's it there you know when you're in

00:05:59.100 mecca you see some of the really guys that come from the poorest places they

00:06:02.840 can't afford the thick ahram yeah they wear the thinnest stuff that's basically

00:06:06.820 what it is man like if you look at this here look at that that's how thin it is bro that's

00:06:20.260 that's what they'll cut our last clothing with and it's that cheap that

00:06:26.340 you cut it with your mouth but the thing is this roll is 100 meters each one i've almost

00:06:31.940 come to the end on this one this has still got some more in it but you know come here snake

00:06:36.820 If you look into this roll here, as you roll it, as you roll it, it moves, right?

00:06:45.540 I don't know whose name's written here.

00:06:48.180 It's people's names that are decreed already that are going to be shrouded with this shroud here before I get a new one out.

00:06:56.260 And so many people have come here and watched funerals, and a week or so later, they've been the one that has been washed.

00:07:02.780 They've passed away, and that shroud becomes theirs.

00:07:04.960 so we don't know brother our shroud is already written for us either in the marketplace somewhere

00:07:10.680 to be sold to your funeral parlor or at the funeral place you're going to be at now

00:07:14.760 and that's the reality man that you take nothing with you bro except this cloth and back into the

00:07:21.140 earth and your actions and deeds so this is her no that's my dad so when my dad died about a year

00:07:28.120 we go now it's been exactly a year he died on the 26th of the fourth so he's

00:07:36.400 been just over a year now a year or five days so when my dad came this was his

00:07:41.380 mortuary sticker on the body bag so when I took it off normally I throw them but

00:07:46.240 my dad I stuck it here so every time I cut this cuff in I read my dad's name

00:07:49.300 that's my surname that's my son's name that's my dad's name and I remember my

00:07:54.080 dad and the water over there has my mum's name on it which she passed away also

00:07:59.000 it's an ongoing charity for them with their children and once you die you're

00:08:07.760 cut from this world so basically there's everything you own gets inherited

00:08:12.580 someone else will take it or they'll dispose of it somehow so you own nothing

00:08:16.800 really the truth of the matter is you own nothing in this world you don't even

00:08:20.720 own your own body because it gets put back in the dirt and the soul goes back

00:08:23.900 to allah who rightfully owns your soul so the truth is who are we what are we anyway why all

00:08:30.240 the arrogance why why the pride in this world why step over people why think you're better than

00:08:34.860 someone when they when at the end they pick you up they put you onto our table and if there's no

00:08:41.220 one here i have to use the motor to do it on my own because sometimes no one comes and then they

00:08:46.700 wash you just like you wash yourself all your life somebody's doing it for you on your last day

00:08:50.960 then your wardrobe had all Versace and label names

00:08:55.540 now all of a sudden they're giving you a white cloth

00:08:58.240 that's worth nothing

00:08:58.980 they wrap you

00:09:00.580 they'll pray on you a prayer that has no bowing or frustration in it

00:09:04.920 and they put you in the dirt

00:09:07.020 and then they walk away

00:09:08.580 if people can't

00:09:10.240 so if you sum it all up

00:09:12.400 what are we?

00:09:14.500 we're travellers

00:09:15.460 we're strangers in this world

00:09:17.820 because we're not staying here forever

00:09:19.420 we're all moving bro

00:09:21.100 we're all

00:09:21.460 just like you landed this morning 0.95

00:09:22.980 as a traveller 1.00

00:09:24.200 with a little suitcase

00:09:25.280 you won't even take that suitcase

00:09:26.240 with you if you were to die

00:09:27.060 you're not taking nothing with you

00:09:28.980 except your actions and deeds

00:09:30.000 and this

00:09:31.340 this

00:09:32.040 is a room

00:09:33.380 that

00:09:34.040 should wake you up

00:09:35.560 for everyone around the world

00:09:37.200 for me this is my office

00:09:38.320 for me I'm here today

00:09:40.460 washing someone

00:09:41.680 tomorrow I'm going to be on there

00:09:42.700 being washed

00:09:43.220 and you know

00:09:44.920 I see it all the time bro

00:09:45.840 people will stand around here

00:09:47.220 and if you're a gangster

00:09:48.840 if you're a rich man, whatever

00:09:50.280 people will stand around

00:09:52.220 like this

00:09:53.720 and they'll watch you get washed

00:09:56.140 and they're thinking in their head 1.00

00:09:58.640 man, fuck 1.00

00:10:00.660 he was just alive yesterday 1.00

00:10:02.060 people remember

00:10:04.040 you know what they were saying, thank God it's you and not me

00:10:06.980 I've got a chance to keep

00:10:08.800 doing good, I can go from here

00:10:10.880 and repent now

00:10:12.420 in other words, when you're alive you've still got a chance

00:10:16.720 once you die you're cut from this world

00:10:19.060 that's why I tell everybody

00:10:21.000 in this world be good to each other

00:10:23.380 respect one another

00:10:25.100 forgive one another

00:10:26.320 if you want the most forgiving

00:10:28.360 the most merciful to forgive us

00:10:30.420 how are we going to get forgiven

00:10:32.540 if we can't even forgive our own blood brothers

00:10:34.140 if here I see people here at funerals

00:10:37.320 washing their brother

00:10:39.140 and they stand there

00:10:40.680 knocking their heads

00:10:41.840 I should have made good with my brother

00:10:44.500 10 years we haven't spoken 1.00

00:10:46.020 because of a stupid 1.00

00:10:47.840 you know, dispute 1.00

00:10:49.840 why? why wait till death?

00:10:53.380 why wait till death

00:10:54.760 to have regrets?

00:10:56.220 don't have regrets in this world

00:10:57.300 fix it now

00:10:58.240 as long as you're alive

00:10:59.340 you can fix it

00:11:00.120 the moment your soul leaves

00:11:02.560 brother, the moment that soul

00:11:03.760 hits the collarbone 0.95

00:11:04.760 tells you in the Quran 0.96

00:11:06.380 and your veil is uncovered 1.00

00:11:08.500 there's no coming back

00:11:09.740 it's done

00:11:11.100 when the soul reaches the collarbone

00:11:16.000 وَقِيلَ مَنْ رَاكِ

00:11:17.980 And the people around you say

00:11:18.940 Where's the doctor?

00:11:19.620 Where's the Rocky?

00:11:20.240 Where's the person to help my person?

00:11:22.680 وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاكِ

00:11:23.940 The deceased says

00:11:24.640 I am departing

00:11:25.440 I know

00:11:26.180 You know you're going there 1.00

00:11:27.680 Because your veil

00:11:29.080 The veil is lifted

00:11:31.480 We have a veil now 0.70

00:11:33.200 We see each other

00:11:34.560 We see what Allah wants us to see in the world

00:11:36.740 But there's the unseen

00:11:38.240 That we don't see

00:11:39.020 And the unseen

00:11:40.500 You'll see it 0.99

00:11:41.200 When Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala 1.00

00:11:42.080 Reveals it to us 1.00

00:11:42.900 And that is the time of death

00:11:44.120 And that is why

00:11:45.340 every single person at the time

00:11:47.440 of death, if he hasn't worked hard for that ending

00:11:49.560 he'll have those regrets

00:11:51.280 he'll say, as it says in the Quran

00:11:53.680 bring me back

00:11:55.080 so I can do good, what's good 1.00

00:11:57.540 good is to worship Allah again

00:11:59.460 good is to smile 0.98

00:12:00.880 good is to pay a sadaqah

00:12:03.040 good is to help that person, to make a good phone call

00:12:05.580 to see if anyone needs help, that's what good is

00:12:07.540 right, anything is good that is good

00:12:09.300 doesn't have to be this massive

00:12:11.360 deeds man, that's where people

00:12:13.280 to understand that's the smallest things that count small but consistent not massive and never

00:12:19.360 done again that's why every single person out there bro has a potential to better themselves

00:12:25.600 every day and death death is a it's a partying but it's also a a meaning apart from this world

00:12:33.200 that you're meeting with allah you're meeting with the one that gave you life and me today you

00:12:37.760 woke up not because the alarm woke you up you woke up because allah said bring his soul return

00:12:44.240 it back into you because the sleep is the minus death and the major death is when you don't wake

00:12:49.920 up allah says after some of you hold your souls back when you sleep meaning you die you don't

00:12:55.680 wake up how many people die in their sleep i get the calls early in the morning and for others i

00:12:59.760 give back your soul so you can go on another day what will you do in that day that is entirely up

00:13:05.280 How many bodies have you seen here?

00:13:10.280 I've been doing this since 1996. I used to be over there in the other section.

00:13:16.280 Before I was born.

00:13:19.280 I've buried over 10,000 people. I've washed nearly 6,000 now.

00:13:26.280 It's a city.

00:13:29.280 yeah but whatever the number is it's going to be me one day we'll come to an end where that

00:13:36.160 ten thousand and whatever is me somebody will have to do it for me the boys i train

00:13:40.640 will do it for me i know i'm traveling but i'm passing by for me to wake up cool i've had my

00:13:48.080 mum my dad my grandparents everyone go through this process now every time i go to the cemetery

00:13:54.480 they had addresses now the address is here section 8 or row 7 or grave 53 whatever that's

00:14:02.080 their new address that's the reality man that's why never let this world sound in you

00:14:09.200 never let this world upset you never let it make you feel oppressed because it's temporary

00:14:16.000 anything temporary has an ending right meaning it's going to end it's not going to be forever

00:14:20.720 the only ever forever is that is the abode of the next life and that's what we have to work for

00:14:26.160 but whatever you suffer in this world what we see our brothers and sisters going through all over

00:14:29.440 the world allah's the best of players it's temporary yes we hurt yes we feel it yes we make

00:14:36.160 prayers allah makes it easy for them but allah also says with hardship comes ease and after

00:14:41.200 hardship comes ease so you see some people suffering out there but when you see them

00:14:45.440 You see some of those images overseas of the children

00:14:47.960 playing on concrete, broken buildings, right?

00:14:52.340 You see them playing there, but they're smiling

00:14:53.700 because Allah gives them ease with the hardship.

00:14:56.660 For us, if our network's down,

00:14:58.800 we can't get the right 5G,

00:15:00.660 we're screaming.

00:15:01.460 That's hardship for us

00:15:02.320 because Allah will never burden a soul 0.99

00:15:05.080 and one they can handle.

00:15:06.200 He'll give you what you can handle

00:15:07.360 because one of the names of Allah is not oppressor.

00:15:10.680 Allah doesn't oppress.

00:15:12.440 We are oppressive to each other. 0.87

00:15:14.060 We oppress one another.

00:15:15.440 The human is an oppressor, not our creator.

00:15:18.480 Our creator is the most merciful.

00:15:20.220 99 parts of mercy belongs to Allah.

00:15:22.820 One part goes to everything else.

00:15:25.560 So when you see that cat looking after its eight, nine kittens,

00:15:29.400 that's one little bit of that mercy.

00:15:32.380 So I say always, bro, we have a chance.

00:15:35.720 This is just temporary.

00:15:37.260 All the suffering we go through,

00:15:38.400 I've had friends that I've watched here,

00:15:40.220 that have gone to school, that have had cancer for 10 years.

00:15:42.860 And for 10 years, I'll get up every day and pray at 3 a.m.

00:15:45.440 and they end up dying at 3 a.m.

00:15:48.500 That's what they wanted.

00:15:49.840 You will get what you sincerely ask for from Allah.

00:15:54.380 So you will die the way you live. 0.93

00:15:56.760 You'll be resurrected the way you die. 0.99

00:15:59.620 Simple.

00:16:01.000 So keep the good companions around you.

00:16:03.300 Keep people around you that remind you of the hereafter.

00:16:06.700 We've had gangsters stand here.

00:16:09.880 We've had the richest stand here.

00:16:11.820 I've had people stand here that don't even know the deceased

00:16:14.640 because he has nobody we've had bodies here that have had maggots coming out of them

00:16:18.960 bodies that are incinerated burnt like from car crashes explosions fully charcoal bodies that are

00:16:27.700 108 years old everything this table doesn't discriminate bro i say that all the time it

00:16:33.040 does not care it serves one purpose to wash and we serve that purpose to wash them and we as

00:16:41.100 Ibadullah, worshippers to Allah

00:16:43.800 Abdullah, because that's why our name is

00:16:45.460 Abdullah, we shouldn't really have a title

00:16:47.820 then we just worship

00:16:49.800 Allah until our day goes

00:16:50.860 you know but

00:16:52.320 Allah makes it easy for everyone bro, that's what I always say

00:16:55.800 you know, if you look here

00:17:00.040 this is the cool room

00:17:02.700 like you know

00:17:04.180 what's a cool room used for?

00:17:05.740 to keep things at a certain

00:17:07.880 temperature so they don't go off

00:17:09.480 but here we put bodies in it

00:17:11.760 you came on a good day

00:17:13.580 there's no body storage

00:17:19.980 Sneaker that

00:17:21.060 how I lost my dad

00:17:22.280 that gives this beautiful smell 1.00

00:17:23.360 to the believers man

00:17:24.560 you know I had a young guy

00:17:33.080 coming out of his brother

00:17:33.920 but he's 0.72

00:17:34.500 everyone smelled that

00:17:35.860 even his family

00:17:36.500 they said

00:17:37.400 I said did you put perfume on him?

00:17:39.480 they go no

00:17:39.980 that's

00:17:42.760 unbelievable

00:17:44.500 you know he was born at the age of one

00:17:48.200 and they said to his parents

00:17:49.300 go home

00:17:51.420 we can't do anything for him 0.99

00:17:52.660 he's going to die

00:17:53.340 he lived another 24 years

00:17:55.340 and he thinks I'm true

00:17:57.780 and these are parents that embraced Islam

00:18:00.540 they're Maoris

00:18:01.140 they became Muslims 25 years ago

00:18:03.840 they buried their 14 year old son 5 years ago

00:18:06.800 they're told they'll never have children

00:18:08.620 and two of their sons they buried.

00:18:11.360 That's the test, bro.

00:18:12.360 That's the ultimate test, right? 0.85

00:18:13.640 Burying your child.

00:18:15.020 And then the next day, 0.98

00:18:15.840 I get a young girl who's 21

00:18:17.920 who her father and mother are Serbian

00:18:20.520 who are also rebirths. 1.00

00:18:22.460 You know, Serbian's a hater. 1.00

00:18:23.720 I like that. 1.00

00:18:25.020 His name is Goran.

00:18:26.040 He came up to me.

00:18:26.800 He goes,

00:18:26.940 I'm going to bury my daughter today

00:18:29.300 and I'm proud.

00:18:30.020 I'm happy

00:18:30.440 because Allah's given me the opportunity.

00:18:32.200 He gave me children. 0.98

00:18:33.160 He takes children. 0.68

00:18:34.460 You know what she died of?

00:18:35.480 She's a uni student. 0.73

00:18:36.380 Meant to get married in three months.

00:18:37.440 She's friends with my daughter.

00:18:38.620 She ate something with peanut in it.

00:18:40.680 She had an allergy.

00:18:41.500 She died right there and there.

00:18:43.260 21 years old.

00:18:44.560 Like a flower.

00:18:47.160 Look.

00:18:50.560 So people sit there complaining in the world

00:18:52.960 where people are burying their children

00:18:55.680 in all circumstances.

00:18:58.460 Whether you're in countries where there's bombs raining on you

00:19:00.800 or whether you're in the blessings of these countries we live in here

00:19:04.500 where our biggest problem might be

00:19:06.880 you know

00:19:07.920 the internet side

00:19:09.740 5G

00:19:10.320 yeah 5G

00:19:11.280 yeah

00:19:11.640 so

00:19:12.580 whatever it is

00:19:14.160 I say to people

00:19:15.440 Allah 1.00

00:19:15.720 it's what you make

00:19:17.460 out of every situation

00:19:18.400 you're going to be tested

00:19:19.840 Allah says 0.99

00:19:20.560 we're going to test you 1.00

00:19:22.800 we're going to test you 1.00

00:19:24.820 Allah says 1.00

00:19:33.920 I'm going to test you

00:19:34.920 either with your wealth

00:19:36.100 either with your children

00:19:37.920 either with your health

00:19:39.180 either with death

00:19:40.560 some people are getting it all in one

00:19:42.820 some people get just their wealth loses

00:19:45.520 others are copying everything 0.90

00:19:47.300 but Allah will test you according to 0.97

00:19:49.860 what you can handle 0.74

00:19:51.300 and you'll

00:19:52.200 you see you know what bro

00:19:53.600 this is Allah 0.88

00:19:54.120 that we all have already a place in heaven and hell

00:19:57.660 and that's all determined by our actions in this world

00:20:00.880 Allah says

00:20:01.320 I created

00:20:05.480 death than life how can that be we're alive we're not dead yet but we're really dead now

00:20:11.740 we come to life when we die to see of you who does the best of deeds not the most things because

00:20:18.740 the most we lose right rich people can just buy a lot of deeds so the best of these comes from what

00:20:24.360 from ahsan from doing it with sincerity and i think to myself whenever i hear that it gives me

00:20:30.800 so much hope that when

00:20:32.760 Allah says he'll test the ones he loves more 0.97

00:20:34.680 the prophets and the messengers 0.92

00:20:36.860 got the biggest tests

00:20:38.040 they're prophets then, when they say to God

00:20:40.800 I'm a prophet, why don't you test me like that for

00:20:42.740 they never said that

00:20:43.980 so our tests are nothing, but when Allah

00:20:46.700 tests you means he loves you

00:20:48.100 because Allah says when he loves his slave

00:20:50.800 he sweetens it up for him

00:20:52.920 what does he sweeten up for him?

00:20:54.800 his ending, he brings him to

00:20:56.720 good deeds, how many boys do you know

00:20:58.320 personally that started off

00:21:00.660 wrong way in life and ended up living dying the best way in life they came back to allah

00:21:06.180 we can tell you stories here by advice where were hitmen and blackies and their last two 0.79

00:21:10.820 years of their life they were doing hajj and humrah and they were giving back because it's 0.56

00:21:16.100 not about how we start it's about how we finish what did he do he went to kill the prophet

00:21:22.260 he hated on his left he became the best of the best one of the ten were basherin of the paradise

00:21:27.700 that's why

00:21:29.360 don't ever say

00:21:30.680 I've lost

00:21:31.780 don't ever say

00:21:32.640 that I've done too much

00:21:33.460 I'll never be forgiven 0.88

00:21:34.180 the one that killed 99

00:21:36.280 and then killed 100

00:21:38.580 and he said 0.98

00:21:40.020 there's no forgiveness for you

00:21:41.060 and he had the intention

00:21:43.060 he was looking for sincerity

00:21:44.180 to be

00:21:45.140 to repent

00:21:45.960 and he was forgiven

00:21:47.120 when he died

00:21:47.700 my brother

00:21:49.260 we are not here to judge

00:21:50.540 you know the problem is

00:21:51.540 that we humans

00:21:52.680 judge each other

00:21:53.440 we're quick to say

00:21:55.020 ah you're a bad person

00:21:56.100 you're going to heaven 0.98

00:21:56.880 not one person here has made it no one has made it so who are you to talk you don't even know

00:22:04.700 what's going to you don't even know what's written around the corner for you let alone what's going

00:22:09.180 to happen to you by the end of the day the prophet says i said if you wake up you don't you're not

00:22:13.120 promised to sleep at night in other words you're not promised to sleep tomorrow and if you sleep

00:22:17.780 tonight you're not promised to wake up meaning we don't control anything the biggest thing we need

00:22:23.300 controls that control that money because this is gonna be the downfall of nearly every single one

00:22:31.460 of us the backbiting and slandering the eating of people's huck will all come back to us in the

00:22:39.700 grave that is why you become the bankrupt when they asked the prophet who you know who the

00:22:45.060 bankrupt is he said to his friends do you know who the bankrupt is here the one that has no money

00:22:49.860 no the one who comes on the day of judgment with mountains of deeds but it all turns to dust

00:22:57.220 because he back bit this guy and slandered that guy and hit that guy and oppressed that guy and

00:23:01.620 took this guy's man and huck that's the bankrupt doing all these deeds but not living your

00:23:08.580 your life sincerely that's why the prophet says ask them speak good or remain silent

00:23:15.620 Better to say silent if you've got nothing good to say.

00:23:19.620 Pleasure to have you here, bro. 1.00

00:23:21.620 In the Kemba Mosque.

00:23:24.620 There is a funeral outside at the moment.

00:25:06.940 the sun came up today not because of me and you 0.93

00:25:09.160 but because Allah wanted it up 0.97

00:25:21.040 the world our biggest our biggest affair you know our biggest problem 1.00

00:25:25.300 because people make the world a problem make the akhirah a problem for us so we 1.00

00:26:07.480 he would come

00:26:10.300 and stand

00:26:12.240 put some water

00:26:12.900 quiet guy

00:26:21.280 we'd finish

00:26:22.000 the wash

00:26:22.740 he'd go in there

00:26:23.520 he'd scrub the table

00:26:24.440 clean everything

00:26:25.900 made it all

00:26:26.820 perfect

00:26:27.440 I used to watch him

00:26:29.280 and then a couple of times

00:26:31.000 I sent him to the cemetery

00:26:32.120 with babies

00:26:32.900 just small babies

00:26:33.640 to go bury him

00:26:34.360 and then Ramadan came 0.93

00:26:36.640 and

00:26:37.800 I didn't see him for a bit

00:26:39.660 the whole Ramadan he disappeared

00:26:41.660 and he used to always tell me 0.96

00:26:43.360 he had one daughter

00:26:44.460 he was divorced or separated

00:26:47.180 and he loved his daughter bro

00:26:48.760 he found life hard bro

00:26:51.300 he was suffering

00:26:51.900 and then

00:26:53.520 I get the call to go pick up a guy

00:26:57.080 we go there, I didn't even look at the name

00:26:58.640 I looked at the paperwork, it was Mesin

00:27:01.340 he had passed away

00:27:02.760 found him dead

00:27:04.580 and

00:27:06.300 I washed him

00:27:29.340 and you know when he was 0.98

00:27:31.580 washing that table

00:27:32.380 when he'd clean that table every time after a wash

00:27:35.300 it was like he used to do it

00:27:37.320 so maliciously, so fussy

00:27:39.280 so predantedly

00:27:41.460 you know, perfectly

00:27:42.180 not knowing that one day he was going to be on it
