this not only can I come to LA and if
football superstars not superstars just
regular guys so you kick the ball a lot
for both Wingo we run and hit people and
tackle people okay so we're talking
about NFL we're talking about NFL not
football with the a shake over the top
okay like in Europe yes yes says this is
football okay so for all the soccer fans
you know what we're going to tell my
football today a little bit of the Deen
of cousins you know I'm watching the D
show so you guys you know because you
guys are turned the world thank you for
stopping incident to Chicago over here
tell us a little about your trip you
guys play for the NFL how long you play
for that NFL for I've actually played
for years all four years with the
Minnesota Vikings the first two
predominantly are the special teams
player the last two of the starting
safety starting say what's starting
safety what is that I'm a defender I'm
the last line of defense
typically if they get past me it's a
touchdown so it's a it's a very tough
job we can see here that you're like how
come they're throwing the ball to
another guy but you took the bar you're
cheating well no that's my that's my job
soon as the ball goes up in the air it's
anybody's ball and I'm gonna come down
with it so that's called an interception
that's definitely an interception so
okay I'm a safety as well but unlike
who's saying I don't have any
interceptions I'm I tried to make myself
a big hitter and you know big collision
so I'm like a big truck on the highway I
just want to crash into people say
you're not knocking people down
inshallah
so now you're on a road trip and you
guys are visiting different mustard all
over the US tell us all about this
project Hum Dil uh 30 months is in 30
days in Sharla we we just were
brainstorming and we say you know what
we wanted to meet some of the brothers
and the sisters that have sent us a kind
word sent us a tweet or a Facebook post
and we wanted to just say assalamu
alaikum and show them that we are their
brother and sister in Islam you know
we're not elevated to some high status
where they're brother and sister in
Islam so we are embarking and Shiloh on
a road trip and insha'Allah you know
Allah will make it easy for us yeah I'll
just say a lot of people think because
of our profession that we're up here but
we're we're on the same playing field as
everyone else we just happen to play a
game that people love and watch so they
give you a status I'll just say but
we're we're normal people just like
everybody else and that's what this trip
is about just to go around and say you
know we're Muslim just like you we go
through it just like you but in that you
can't succeed at what you want to do in
life that's deep
so you guys are you know going out of
your way to go and meet your brothers
and sisters out there in the sea you
giving them some advice I'm like
whatever we can do our mother was a
stickler on running for your brother
what you want for yourself and I
remember as a kid when I was 12 years
old being in the Hakeem Olajuwon
basketball camp
and what that did for me so I imagined
myself being in that position you know
I'm not nowhere near I came alive Ron
he's a superstar hall-of-famer but you
know just being in the aspect and the
light that we have we want to share some
good and we wanted to come meet our
brothers because we would want how came
Eliza want to come me of him as he did
that steep so you guys make sure that
you guys are gonna be heading towards
where's where's the schedule of all the
moistures that you guys are going to be
you can you can find it on Abdullah Bros
comm we have a schedule up and we've
been hitting all the different messages
across the year well not all of them as
many as we can hit within these 30 days
we know that Islam is is a way of life
of love and mercy is to wear peace
having peace with your Creator peace
within yourself and peace with the rest
of mankind listen so now you guys live
in Islam you're out there and the public
I do you sometimes get some scrutiny do
you guys with all the you know boogeyman
Islam's coming to get you you know you
hear it on the news a lot of times but
people get to interact with you and you
know your teammates do you ever get in
any slack because be you guys are ones
who submitted to the will of God
Muslims well I would say the number one
thing and the number one example is how
we carry ourselves and that's the way of
the Dean you know hamdullah I wanted the
Dean show so we're talking about our
dean the regardless of what our neighbor
sees on the news if he sees you and says
brother Eddie is a Muslim he takes care
of me he invites me over to his house he
takes care of my lawn it says if he if I
see that his garbage cans are out an
extra day he will bring them in those
are the acts that you know in Islam a
form of peace and we're always trying to
do good and always trying to be as good
as possible so that will come back the
ignorance of what is outside whether
it's on the news on the internet or
whatever it is us just walking our path
us on our deen inshallah we'll overcome
all of that have you met any other
athletes are like Muhammad Ali we're not
hopkins who are there's a lot of people
who are Muslim and actually saw there we
met any of them there's a lot of people
who are Muslim and answers but we have
not met too many of them
we've met Ryan Harris Homs actually
played with him for the Denver Broncos
Ryan Harris right here yes he plays for
the Denver Broncos but inshallah one of
our goals on this trip is to go and
knock down some doors initially we get a
chance to sit with some of our brothers
in this line there's a great opportunity
but all the people out the woodwork
maybe there's some that you know now
they're like how we can contact we can
make this happen in Charlotte and
Charlotte we're going to take a break
and right back with more with the
Abdullah brothers here on the Dean show
when I outside everything looks good you
see this hundred thousand dollar cars
you see a lot of diamonds you see a lot
of females and they think that this is
you know this is a life this is this is
like you know paradise right here on
earth
my job to go into someone's heart to
change the hunt your job is to topi what
the truth is and the ally of it is while
we're sitting here while I'm sitting
here constantly paying for the disease
to cure with free
back here on the Dean show we're talking
to our brothers the Abdullah brothers
NFL you guys been playing for a long
time and you're out there people think
you like you were saying you're up here
so you're coming down here to meet your
brothers and sisters in the Dean and how
about how about if you got some fans who
are not yet Muslim that's right and they
want to come out and they want to meet
you guys what about that is that okay
that's no problem we were reaching out
to everybody part of this trip is to
meet Muslims and non-muslims alike to
let people know that just because you
wear a shoulder pads and a helmet and
there's an NFL stitch on your Jersey it
doesn't mean you're better than anybody
else we're on the same playing field as
I've said before so if you're a
non-muslim please come out or our
schedule is online and you can come to
any of the messages your you're more
than welcome to come out and meet us and
that's what we encourage you know
because some people think man the
musters day the mosque we got a
bomb-making fact doing dinner come on in
bring bring your whole family come eat
biryani with us or hot dogs
oh yeah one of my favorite times of the
year is Ramadan because the mosques are
open there's so many people and that's a
great form of Dawa to bring your
neighbors bring your friends bring those
people who are curious about Islam bring
them during Ramadan so they can see what
goes on on a daily basis they see us in
their eating they sitting there praying
they see kids playing they see them
playing basketball football soccer and
all these different things so now you've
changed their way of thinking now you've
changed a whole family's way of thinking
just by going and visiting experiencing
and extending that invitation to them
now we know that Islam its way of life
that Jesus lived Islam submission to the
will of God Moses Abraham the last the
final mission of Mohammed peace box and
oh they all called humanity to have a
relationship a loving relationship with
the loving God the creator of the
heavens in earth submit to him don't
submit to the Christian submit to the
crater and there's five pillars hmm none
is worthy of worship except the one god
paying that poor do tax praying five
times a day and you also have Hajj the
pilgrimage to the first house of worship
built by Abraham now you guys there's
some some talk that you guys are
sacrificing
your your work your season to go and
make this pilgrim is this true it is
hearsay no this is this is 100% true we
went and we may Oh murder we visited
Mecca back in March and when we were
there we just had a strong feeling and a
strong urge to want to come back for
Hajj so there was no way we wouldn't
feel right if we signed a contract with
the team and left for three or four
weeks that wouldn't I mean it's not
Islamic you sign the contract you honor
your contract so we say you know what
we're going we're not going to sign the
contract there were a few offers that we
both had but we said we're gonna hold
off we're gonna go make Hajj and then
insha'Allah would come back we'll try to
catch on with the team after that that's
deep um do we have a lot of people that
are reluctant they get caught up duniya
lized I call it and they're scared of
sacrifice a few weeks they'll go make
pilgrimage at the mall every weekend or
back home you know to visit their family
and friends nothing wrong with that man
when the crater has given you the
invitation to go to to his house people
are turning away but you guys are
heading out that's deep well it truly is
an invitation when like Hussein said we
weren't for home road the lesser Hajj
the lesser pilgrimage we really felt
like Allah God was welcoming us to his
house and we'd never want to turn our
back towards you know the one who
created us the one was bestowed all
these blessings He blessed us to plan
then FL it was nothing we did we we were
blessed to play in the NFL and we're
young we were fit where we have the the
funds to do it so why not now definitely
we're gonna get in now to the nitty and
gritty we think superstardom we think
you know the celebrity lifestyle you get
to hang around with some of the people
who are making millions yes sir now you
know temptation yes sir it's out there
you know guys finish the game we're
gonna go pop some bottles all right
we'll go to the club come on a brother
you know now how do you you know kids at
school at high school going through this
that's right but you guys at a higher
scale you are working hard to suppress
and
to not get oppressed that's right you
know what I mean that's right
subjugating - you know by letting your
desires override you you subjugating
them
yes sir also you can be a true servant
to the one who created you live a good
moral wholesome organic life so what
advice do you have for those who are
letting their desires take charge of
their life and it's all upside down
because of them drugs alcohol you know
chasing the women women getting you know
misled by man what advice do you have I
would say when when that starts to
happen when you start feeling like
desires are just they're just almost
controlling you start working on
yourself look into the mirror and say
what can I fix about myself how can I
grow up and how can I start making the
right steps to get married I'm 27 years
old now I got married when I was 20 I
was a sophomore in college
and my freshman year in college I got
out there and I seen the other side of
college not the educational side the
other side of college so I said I need
to work on myself because I don't want
to fall into these different fitness so
I started to work on myself and I took
the proper steps until I got married now
we're here something beautiful right now
though the people can hear we're hearing
the call to prayer now you guys are at
work you're throwing the ball around get
knocked down upside down right that's
somewhat intercepted like I see it right
now unis up to the ball but the call God
is greater and greater than all that
money all of that wealth are you able
now to stop what you're doing and put
your forehead on the ground and
prostrate to the crater that have is an
Earth through this a lot well we try our
best to honor our Salah you know we're
supposed to guide our prayers and
unfortunately you know we play at it on
a Sunday afternoon
so our games are right kind of smack dab
in the middle Hussein his kick off in
Minnesota is at 12 o'clock and mine is
at 2 o'clock
al hamdulillah so Hossein usually misses
his door he has to make his up but a
humbly lot I'm able to make mine but it
really is you know when you hear the
call you know hiya little Salah you know
hasten to Salah island flat hasten to
success that's the true success so if we
can put that in front of everything else
then Allah is the most merciful he will
bless us with whatever we like that's
definitely so true
we got that window of opportunity you
know what I mean you know and and and
Allah makes it easy where you can
combine the salat on certain occasions
so you know but some people have left it
all together don't even think about it
just chasing the dollar and the money
you know that becomes something that you
know you can't take with you when you
leave this world and and I would just
say that for the brothers and the
sisters who even even if they left it I
would just say you're a lot never turns
you down you know regardless of what
happens regardless of where you go if
you're still on this earth if you're
still breathing then you have an
opportunity to repent to Allah spawn of
Thailand and insha'Allah Allah blesses
us to continue to hold on to that rope
to hold fast to Allah Allah Muhammad
Rasulullah never despair Allah is the
most merciful the crater is the most
merciful so we've got so many things to
be grateful and thankful how about him
you wouldn't be able to run so fast you
can be able to reach your hands out to
grab that ball imagine no hands you
can't even pick up the phone
you couldn't even drive the car you just
bankrupt yeah you really bankrupt should
we give thanks al hamdulillah a lot of
things yes we want to encourage you want
occur to people to be thankful and
grateful and then you're not gonna be so
reluctant to turn your back I'm the
creator of the heavens in her yes I seek
His blessings taking his bounty so
you're gonna give back themselves a
grateful and thankful tell us now ok so
we got the Hajj coming up you're going
to be in
Mecca Medina soon are you excited I'll
humbly love Mecca and Medinah were
places that you can't really describe
Medina was the most peaceful place that
I've ever been if there was ever a place
where I'd like to settle down and just
be there and just soak in the ambience
it was medina and one thing that I
really loved about being overseas being
in Mecca being Medina was when you hear
the call to prayer everything shut down
you know there were five times a day
where there was nothing more important
than worshiping your Lord your Creator
Allah the most gracious the most
merciful so yes we're definitely excited
to give have you met we had some of the
other brothers who accepted his way of
life this beautiful way of life Aslam
Dave Chappelle and he left off you know
they were talking about like a 50-50
million 15 yeah he went down to Mecca
and he went back to his roots I heard
myself to Africa and he was like man you
know what the King Day yes this is what
I'll leave all these big names they also
when they went back to their roots they
figured hey it's just luck yes sir so he
went to the Hajj did you ever meet him
who else you got Omar Reagan you got
Mike Tyson you know some of these uh big
names were actually I just got off the
phone with Omar ring and he told me to
give you his salons and we're actually
heading to Detroit to go hang out with
him right now
you get now you got to give some salams
to all the brothers down there and you
know all of you know the people who
watch the D show if they mention to give
more salons when you're down in Mecca
keep us in your doing so long as that
special friend down there wants you to
visit actually in solo he's watching so
dr. Brown
okay I'll be down there you'll meet him
he's a frequent visitor here on the Dean
show okay so insha'Allah we're gonna
take a break and then we're gonna come
back with the wrapping closing comments
hear from our brothers and your brothers
here on the Dean so we'll be right back
a lot of you out there are in the exact
same position he said I would never
give up for spring God is why I wouldn't
never give up spreading this message
hope that you take that necessary step
you don't know if you're gonna live till
tomorrow so you gotta find that urgency
to do the right thing right now just
what verify to everything for us
that's what imma jority people you talk
to ya they know they gotta change they
know they got to do good but they don't
do the good why is this the ranking
of the 100 most influential men in the
history of the world laziness the
reality of life usually doesn't sink in
until tragedy comes you know this is
when you find people yeah yeah okay tell
me about it yeah you get a few bad
people the media grabs ahold of that and
spends it the way they want to and in it
he puts Mohammed is number one he said
no human being had more influence one of
the amazing things about Islam that
everyone should know is that we are the
only other religion that is a tenet of
faith that you must believe in Jesus
Christ and everything that he did or you
cannot be able to see if that is missing
if you say that you do not believe in
Jesus you have stepped outside of his
name you cannot be a Muslim and attended
our faith to to believe in and love
Jesus Christ
these are not God God is the one who
created everything in this universe
that's the one I'm gonna worship and
prostrate to how can you go wrong doing
that don't believe in on yours out of
Islam top ten reasons why Jesus cannot
be glad you did
back here on the Dean show with the NFL
football players the Abdullah brothers
catching the ball thought you did you
did you ever want to be Porter back
everybody wants to be the quarterback
because he he gets the ball you touch
the ball every single play it's about
touching it really is about the football
is so simple all football is is you stop
the guy or if you have the ball you try
and cross the line and if you don't have
the ball you try to stop the guy from
crossing the line I always want to be a
running back very Sanders with my
favorite player growing up and that
that's kind of who I really like no one
to be a running back well then I realize
hitting people with fun science became a
safety I mean I get to talk a little bit
about football with you brothers I don't
know much about football I'm more into
the martial arts al hamdulillah Charla I
heard you guys maybe want to start
training Brazilian jiu-jitsu that will
be nice and short long you can be our
instructor here Chicago but maybe we'll
hook you up with some some people our
organization has branches all over the
globe so we can hook you up with the
Gracie Baja team somewhere in your
locality Michelle tell us now again
going back to this serious matter you
know purpose of life why we've been
created is just to have fun party and
then die that's not what it's about you
guys realize that right yes and you you
started to live this way of life that's
about bringing peace into your life
purpose when you have purposed and you
know you peace comes so now you are
worshipping none but the one who created
you that's Islam submission to only the
Creator establishing the salaat we
talked about Hajj ok you guys are doing
- Hajj the five pillars and we don't
really want to get you know did not yet
Muslims out there motivated to think
what the purpose of life is why I'm here
you know what I mean that's why we share
because we care that's right right so
now fasting also Jesus fastest Moses
faster they only worship the Creator
they also gave in charity this is the
five pillars of Islam
nothing different nothing unique we're
not from outer space now right so now
the fasting comes into play and people
get excited they're like how did these
guys do it your fasted and your plane
how does that work fasting and playing
football we started doing it at a young
age and our mother once again she
pointed to Hakeem Olajuwon she said he's
fasting he's playing basketball and he's
dominating his sport so from there as
competitive as we are we say you know it
she can do it in Shiloh we can do it and
we started working that in and and in
that fasting is a part of our religion
football is not so fasting comes before
football so if there was ever a fasting
or football of course we're going to
choose fasting and I would just just add
on to that is you know the first thing
we have to do regardless of what we're
doing especially while we're fasting is
we ask Allah to make it easy for us so
we do that first thing is to ask a lot
you know oh Allah please make it easy
for us the second thing is we have to do
our part your fasting it's hot you're
doing it extracurricular activities you
have to hydrate yourself you have to eat
properly you have to have a nutrition
plan you have to educate the people
around you to let them know that you're
fasting and what you're doing because
we're not belligerent Allah doesn't
place on this burden greater than we can
bear and we have to remember that okay
let's go into this now you know many of
the youth even adults they look up to
you guys you know NFL that's a multi
what billion billion dollar industry
right so okay a lot of people listen to
you before they listen to you know some
of the laymen and they look at you and
they maybe look at their parents say you
guys don't understand you know what I
mean so now they're let's say slacking
in school or some are getting a good
grades but now their priorities are
mixed up they're thinking I'm gonna get
the good grades get the good title
get the nice car get the nice woman the
guys thinking okay I'm gonna work hard
and party hard right so I mean is that
the right direction to go in life and
how could we persuade people to to be
more into the Dean instead of being more
into you know the dunya and the
nightclubs and all the other things I
just you know don't don't bring peace
and happiness drugs alcohol gambling all
these things that just destroy a person
and destroy I was I would say there's a
reason why your parents were placed in
your household we didn't choose our
parents a lot chose our parents for us
and those are the best role models to
look at your father and see how he
carries himself your
other how she carries herself and
everybody they looks they look at us
because we were a jersey we have the NFL
logo on it but I mean I hummed a lot but
you can look and you can look at your
parents as a role model you can look at
your older brothers or sisters look
within your community and see the
examples that are put right in front of
your face we don't always have to look
um to a to a certain person on YouTube
or to our athlete or to a somebody of
so-called status you can look right
inside your home and you can find some
of the best role models ever and then
just to add to that I would just say you
know guard your prayer when you guard
your prayers when you when you're
constantly thinking about Allah that
takes you away from a lot of the
distractions so inshallah you know I'm
when we speak we speak for ourselves you
know because we're trying to get better
every single day
so inshallah that's one thing that I
noticed that more the more I frequent
the Masjid the more I interact with
those brothers and sisters who are there
constantly the more I want to attach
myself to the mantra the more I wanted
to be like those brothers and sisters or
be like my father who can't stay away
from the Mazdas longer than a few hours
so those are the role models those are
the ones that we look to and we do
understand that we're on the platform
and with that you know inshallah just
please make it we ask Allah to make it
easy for us and bless us to be good
examples but know that we're human being
and we're working on ourselves just as
they can work on themselves now if
you're trying to be righteous you're
trying to give up the alcohol you know
the six-packs Heineken whatever you're
drinking you're trying to give up you
know smoking we all right that's like a
big thing bad stuff is just bad you know
lying deceiving but now you've realized
that you realize that I am created for a
purpose it's more noble err than this
but now you're trying to do good but you
got you know your friends they calling
you on the weekend I gotta go I'll lend
you some I'm sorry some what I'm sorry
it seems like I'm getting sucked at get
back in
how important is a good company it's
it's very important and it's very
important to guard your inner circle
back when I was in high school I had
some people that was not so good in my
inner circle and my father was like
no no and and at the time I didn't
understand but later on in life I seen
the direction they chosen life in the
direction I was heading life and I was
like you know what he was right because
whoever's in your inner circle will rub
off on you and they will say oh we're
just going to go hang out real quick you
don't need any money I got the gas I got
your movie ticket I got whatever just
come hang out with us now you're in a
situation that you don't want to be in
so you have to keep good company you
have to protect and gardener in a circle
and what we always say is what our mom
taught us when we were younger one for
your brother what you want for yourself
so if you're around people who don't
want for you what they want for
themselves if they won't they won't you
know they won't labor and they'll throw
you in somewhere you know maybe you guys
are in trouble or he's in trouble so he
throws your name in there that's not
wanting for your brother what you want
for yourself so you want to align
yourselves with like-minded people
people have the same more of the same
values even if they're not Muslim
there's some other people out there who
are morally conscious and who are going
to do the right thing so insha'Allah
what we like to do god willing is align
ourselves with people that are close and
close and character to us it's really
important that's right that's right that
is a true statement so you know you want
to become righteous you want to please
your Creator before you meet your
Creator you want to be doing good should
be around people are doing good you got
a person that's disrespecting his
parents or her parents and using foul
language you know of course you want
advise them too good but man you hanging
around with somebody who's constantly
doing that they're gonna be bringing you
down isn't it that's right and you don't
want you won't you don't ever want to go
down you always want to go up there's a
few sayings in football you're even
getting right or you're getting left so
in other words you need to get going and
you never stay the same you're either
getting better or you're getting worse
so we won't always be getting better
always being the worship of Allah even
if you're not Muslim you always want to
give thanks to the Creator the person
who created you because it was like that
Bambi and you were so we always want to
remember that and give thanks to the
Most High we can't ever this is advice
to our brothers and sisters but men are
we can never leave our sisters out we
love them
much and you know we talk about real
issues here on the detail so you know
you got the sisters who are so precious
they're more pressure than the love to
us than diamonds and pearls you know
Islam elevates the woman in does it
subjugate the woman are pressed the
woman and we cover so many episodes
given the evidences as a proof so what
advice for our sisters some of them they
getting you know led astray by a lot of
the brothers out there who are you know
men that's right now you see it at a
higher level you know using women so
what advice do we get for our sisters
out there so that will get used and
abused I would say again it starts in
the household listen to your father
listen to your older brother there your
there your protectors don't don't go
against the grain and you know you meet
a guy or whatever the case may be make
sure everything checks out because when
you turn your back on your family it's
hard to cross that line again so I would
say start with their protectors in your
house and and ask them because they've
had examples with with women and they
know different things so the other
example that they can talk about and
they can learn from before they
experienced it themselves and I would
just add that you know as for men and
for women is to educate ourselves you
know do not let CNN or Fox News tell us
what Islam is about read the Koran read
the hadith read the different books that
are out there about the four most
beautiful women on the history of the
planet read about Miriam and sort of
Miriam Illes Salaam in the Koran and see
if she's oppressed see how she was
veiled and those different things that
can teach us about our religion and for
our sisters that we have a stronger goal
what what they have on the West and in
America and what they feel is a
beautiful woman is not so what's a
beautiful woman is a woman of strong
character who can take care of her
children take care of her husband and
still go to bed she can be a
businesswoman she can be all those
things but the four greatest woman in
Islam were people who are near and dear
to prophets peace be upon them we're
almost out of time I just thought about
I ask you a couple more questions you
know this is something that sometimes
it's just laughable some of the
misconceptions the false fallacies that
are out there about Islam and I've
thrown out some charts right here to
show that it's at the lowest of totem
pole when the FBI statistics and they
show that it's
as you know the least amount of terror
acts and people like try to flip it and
make it seem like it's lot Muslims are
out there just causing havoc on earth
even though we're all about peace and
trying to make peace and live according
to the way of life of peace so when you
guys hear Islam being maligned out there
that side in your heart it really does
and it's unfortunate that they do that
but I would say don't listen to the
media go and do it yourself we're we're
doing it we're driving around going to
the different match and sometimes we
should show up unannounced just to see
the kind of reception that we get
because we're African Americans a lot of
people think oh you have to be a
foreigner to be a Muslim no you just go
in and ever say Salam alaikum everybody
greets you the same so for all the
non-muslims out there I would say if you
really want to know about Islam just
walk into the master and it is a
beautiful scene and that's why I love
America because America was founded on
immigrants you know there's no one who
said oh I've been here my family's been
here since the 600 BC no everyone came
from somewhere else and you look in the
different massages and the different
mosques that we've been to around the
country and there's someone of every
ethnicity right there standing
toe-to-toe and praising the one and only
allah subhanaw taala and it's such a
beautiful sight that I recommend that
Muslims and non-muslims go out of your
comfort zone if this is your area this
is your bubble step out of there go to a
mosque out of your area and go see how
they interact with you I'm dying to ask
you this before we leave like when
you're on the football field and now you
know the opposite team today do they say
things and try to you know provoke you
and try to throw you off your game like
they'll be sometimes it gets where it's
not personal obviously or maybe it might
get personal do you have other remarks
coming from other players when you're
out there and getting ready to before it
goes like Snap ball for the ball is now
but in the inner field not necessarily I
will say back in high school you may get
a pork joke here there but there maybe
that's what I mean like now that you're
on the under line and the guys are like
we're gonna get you a brother
I haven't heard anything like that just
I would just say the regular smack talk
well not necessarily making this farm to
ride tour in India okay

homework how can people now look you

from the NFL players the Abdullah
brothers you can see while many people
are having a hard time because of the
dollar because of the fame they're
forgetting about their purpose in life
why they've been created why they're
here the brothers haven't forgotten so
they're giving back and it's time for
HUDs they're answering the call it's
time for prayer that stopping to pray
it's time to fast their fascinating and
that's what Islam is about the same way
of life that Abraham Moses Noah and all
the other messages that God Almighty has
sent to mankind because he loves mankind
he wants to guide mankind don't turn
away from the guidance and the last and
final messenger sent to mankind of
problem Hama peace be upon him they all
were brothers of one another and they
came with the same one message only
worship the one who created creation the
one create tour and Arabic we say Allah
and Aramaic jesus said Aloha that's the
one God and work to develop yourself to
be the best that you can be being in a
constant state of self-development you
can't do it on your own whims and
desires that's why God Almighty revealed
the five pillars praying fasting giving
in charity doing the Hajj not because he
needs it because this is if you want to
get big you hit the bench press you want
to get some good conditioning you're on
you want to develop God consciousness
you go ahead and you obey God and you
become more cognizant of your purpose in
life you reflect more you ponder more
not about
the money in the big house and the cars
and the bling-bling but you ponder about
the day of judgment that you're going to
be accountable when you die for all the
things you've done in this life there's
a Hellfire there's a paradise and I want
to be those who enter the paradise and
the only way you can do it is by
submitting to the will of God and doing
good and being good and living your
purpose in life
living your purpose in life so do it
right now ask if you haven't do it right
now ask within yourself God Almighty
