keeping it real real how we keep it get
ready for Edie
back aldaham Alum greetings of Peace
Eddie host of the dean show we're
keeping it real here I just got done
doing another episode of the dean show
so I'm excited it's Ramadan coming and
we're going to be coming to you with
some great exciting episodes so make
sure you're tuning in now I wanted to
take off with something
that was fresh in my mind I just
interviewed a brother by the name of
Brent recently accepted Islam maybe four
months ago he was in the military and
American and the guy was searching for
the truth for 10 years and he was
exposed to Islam to Muslims tried very
hard not to accept meaning that he just
didn't want to believe that Islam was
the truth because it's based on proof
and evidence and the more he was going
into it the more he'd be lying to
himself if he didn't accept it and
that's what many people do they don't
have the courage they see 1+ 1 equal 2
where are you going to go with that
there only one God worship the Creator
not the creation do what God wants you
to do on his terms not your desires
Islam is straightforward and he saw past
all of the false
propaganda and another unique thing
about this individual and we'll have
this show show up in Ramadan that's why
I need you guys to really tune in to
benefit from the these programs that
alhamdulillah we're able to bring you we
also have yasak coming on and other
great shows especially for Ramadan now
what I really wanted you guys to reflect
over that a is Ramadan so I really need
to take advantage of Ramadan what is it
here for the great wisdom behind it is
Allah tells us in the Quran God tells us
in the Quran that fasting has been
prescribed for you as it was prescribe
to those before you that you may
increase in tawa God Consciousness
that's right so we can carry you over
for the whole year training the
soul to temper to have it refrain from
it riding you you don't have the wild
stallion ride you you ride it and many
of us are having this NFS the desires
ride us and it's interesting something
was brought to my attention this is by a
Muslim and many of us we just away from
the dean and a lot of times it's the
parents fault let me give you just an
example true story and while I'm talking
you're going to see some of these
pictures so we can be more effective we
can really get the most out of this
video through visual effect and through
the audio and through the pictures now
listen the brother I hadn't seen him in
years I remember I knew him back from
Jah and I ran into him and it was just
real exciting seeing him and he's a
Muslim you know Muslims obviously for
the not yet Muslims T is one who chooses
consciously to submit to the Creator not
the creation that's what it is Jesus was
Muslim Moses Abraham all the prophets
were musl Muslim now you living the
purpose of life so I saw this brother
and after seeing him on the maybe the
four fifth time finally I had observed
some things and I went to his business
and he's got the music jamming all the
time and F bombs coming out of the mouth
and finally I said listen brother after
we talked and I expressed the love that
I had for him and I said look you know
if you don't mind you give me all this
advice let me share some advice from you
please you could take it if you'd like
and I think it really benefits you I
said look you know I I can tell there's
some things because he expressed being
depressed he expressed having this void
in his heart and I said I'll tell you
something that's really affecting
amongst other things but one of the
things you can cut out immediately and
see immediate gratification is all of
this bling bling music all of this stuff
that's just getting your desires hot
it's is audio pornography it's really
going is really affecting you cut it out
brother even though you've been addicted
to it for so long cut it out replace it
with the Quran some good lectures some
good talks things that will increase
that would charge the battery charge the
heart and then also these F bombs I said
man look man you're a Muslim cognizant
that look Allah is your lord your
creator the Creator who created you look
he don't like these profanities coming
out of our marks the tongue that
remembers the Creator it should not
utter these things so at least when
you're around me try not to to let all
this foul language come out of your
mouth and then maybe you'll start to be
more cognizant of that and then you
probably replace it and not let it come
out with anybody but he said you know
what and going back to linking it back
to the parents being a blame he said man
I've been swearing my whole life my
father they're Muslim cursing my
brother's cursing everyone's cursing I
said Subhan Allah you see
parents what
examples have you been to your kids so
now the kid is just mimicking Mom and
Dad Dad smoking right letting F bombs
out what do the kids do doing the same
same thing so it's time to make a change
so I said let you be the one who makes a
difference now you can make the change
and children are rising up now and
helping their parents see the way that's
pleasing to the Creator Islam so you
study it you learn it you implement it
and you be the role model for your
parents now and parents now is Ramadan
let us get with it all of us to really
reflect and think death can come at any
time and then tomorrow bye-bye is too
late and what do we leave behind if not
a righteous child
another thing that I was I wanted to
share with you from this story that I
did with Brent who's coming up in
Ramadan his story was he lost his son he
lost his son two-month-old baby boy you
know how hard that is Subhan Allah and
he's going through many challenges and
tests and for those now who think I'm
just going to come into this Dean this
way of life and think it's oh yeah it's
hallelujah it's all good no Allah says
in the Quran look the Creator is saying
do you think that you just say I believe
and you won't be tested this life is a
test but at one end everyone's being
tested but some have the Creator with
them and some don't and Allah is saying
with every
difficulty with every difficulty comes
the relief the ease twice he says it so
be expecting it it's coming so I don't
think now okay you just take the Shah
there's nothing worthy of worship except
the creator of heavens and earth
Muhammad is his messenger including that
excluding Jesus Moses and all the
preceding messenger we know how it
goes and now you think it just all
smooth and dandy no it's going to be
trials and test Allah is testing your
sincerity and I always refer people to
the show I did with Dr Lawrence Brown
who he lost when he accepted Islam he
lost his successful doctor lost his
house his guest house and his dog his
wife took it all and he was sleeping in
a pay byday motel and he testifies that
he held on I was test Allah was testing
him and at the end what happened he got
twice fold three times fold back new
family new well everything Allah cuz
that's Allah's promise the Creator's
promise what you leave what you lose in
the path of Allah Allah will replace it
so hold steadfast to those who are
Muslim thinking about being Muslim
you'll be challenged but there are no
group of people who are on who who are
not on the truth look at Jesus he was
spit
on he was ridiculed they tried to kill
him all the messengers what happened
they were what trying to win a
popularity contest just blending in no
they were speaking the truth and what
happened at the end they were victorious
they got Jenna Paradise waiting for them
and that's what you'll have waiting for
you but we have to stay steadfast and
with the last thing I want to end is I
heard also was brought to my attention
there was a Muslim making a claim or
saying and and many of us again out of
ignorance we don't know the dean we
don't know the purpose so he said I dare
anyone to find me anything better than
riding through LA with the dog on my lap
and listening to Tupac doing like this
this this stuff I mean really when you
do
have when you have this Dean in your
heart you've connected the heart back to
the maker of the
heart that is when you have this
contentment this peace you know you go
to the gym and you you chase this
feeling that you get from they call it a
runner's high but we when we've
experienced based on proof and evidence
not Blind Faith No Islam is based on
clear evidences and proofs that is
indeed from the maker the creator of
mankind definitely without a doubt and
now you experience this this this
feeling and then you end up chasing in
your whole life because it's not every
day now you're on a cloud floating high
no like everyone else sometimes you come
to the prayer luggage sometimes you're
in it all the way half percent some
people have their prayer accepted 20 30
40% as is stated in the Hadi depending
on your concentration your sincerity
many people don't understand the Quran
the language that's why it's a lifetime
journey of learning understanding and
chasing what you've experienced cuz many
of us we come into this de and then
Allah lets us taste thewe weakness of IM
and then it drifts off and then again we
chasen it it comes and goes you know
what I'm saying but what are you chasing
on the other side this is something that
brings revance to the heart rejuvenates
the heart Subhan Allah and at the end
you have Jenna guaranteed for all the
struggles that you go through because as
the last and final messenger sent to
mankind to proph Muhammed peace be upon
him he said there is no Affliction that
befalls a Believer except it's good for
him not even the prick of of a
thorn that expiates your sins and many
how many of us are not making mistakes
each and every day Subhan Allah so when
good comes to you you're alhamdulillah
thank God a Calamity comes you're
patient and there's goodness in
that and at the end Jenna is waiting for
you
Jenna that's it so let us take advantage
of this blessed month of Ramadan Islam
based on the Five Pillars
testifying that there's nothing worthy
of worship except the creator of the
heavens and earth and Muhammad is the
last and final messenger Jesus fasted we
accept him as a messenger not a God he
never claimed to be God a Son of God
that he died for people's sins people go
away from religion because of all this
man-made Hocus Pocus m m mumble jumble
that doesn't make
sense but we believe in a believable
message based on a believable book the
Quran testable a living miracle and all
of the guidelines are there so after we
establish this the Salat five times a
day we have to be connecting with our
minimum connecting the heart back to its
maker giving to the poor the zakat Haj
once in your lifetime and now you have
the Blessed month of Ramadan it's here
don't lose it take advant whatever
you've done in the past give it up now
and inshallah you can leave off all of
those vices for this month train
yourself control yourself this
discipline
yourself and make what is good for you a
way of life this
Dean is good for your heart it's good
for you in this life and in the
Hereafter because we're going to die and
at the end it's only two places Jenna or
Janam that's it so we love the best for
everyone keeping it real here really
reflect what's the purpose of life why
you've been created and Muslims you know
and that not yet Muslims really
investigate Islam keep keep watching the
dean show and those who've been slacking
off get with it get with it because we
know anyone who testifies and believes
in will be in Jenna but some will have
to spend some time to go ahead and
expiate for the wrongs the evils the
sins that people have done in Janam we
don't want to spend a second there so
now is the time to be cognizant of what
my purpose is and Ramadan is this
blessed month don't lose out on all the
wonderful rewards and make sure also
