welcome to the dean show you just got to
see an incredible moment brother Chris
you have just taken the Declaration of
Faith how do you feel I feel very good
it's very overwhelmed you're a Muslim
now now yes you nervous uh yes I'm
nervous excited yes you should be
because you have just you've done the
most wonderful thing that a human being
can do you've chosen out of your own
free will to take this free choice that
you have either to surrender to the
dollar to the woman to society to
materialism to something created you've
chosen out of your own free choice to
surrender to the one who has created you
God Almighty that's a wonderful thing
that's the Declaration that you guys got
to see how's that that feel huh that's a
good feeling all your sins now are
forgiven everything now if you owe
somebody some money you got to pay that
debt but everything is like you you
start fresh yeah that's good so now he's
a Muslim you're a muslim okay you are
one who submits who's chosen freely to
submit to surrender not to anyone
created okay not to a man not to a
monkey not to a stone but to the creator
of all the creator of Jesus Christ the
creator of Moses of Abraham
Muhammad the creator of the Sun the moon
all right you know the sun is a Muslim
did you know that I found that out today
a son the son is a Muslim how is it
because the sun is submitting to to
Allah to God the trees are Muslim the
Moon is a Muslim everything that
submitting to God is a Muslim and now
you've made that choice to be a Muslim
one who surrenders and submits because
somebody you know who might not be a
Muslim maybe he's investigating or he
has some misconceptions oh man you
decided to be a terrorist this is one of
the big biggest misconceptions is
Muslims fight against terrorism you
cannot be a Muslim terrorist these are
two oxym right how was it meeting all
your new brothers in Islam that that was
amazing uh it's weird because you know
you never know if you're going to be
accepted because to me and to probably
most people like me white Americans for
the most part you think I'm Different um
they're different and so you really
don't understand their culture so you
don't know are they going to accept me
as one of them
um it's a big problem we have today in
society and when all those people came
up to me and started hugging me and were
saying everything to me it it's amazing
now because those those problems we make
as humans they're but if you really look
they're really not there you know the
people that make us think that we're
different it's like we're programmed at
least in America at least that's how I
feel it's like you grow up and the media
is telling you certain things the
government's telling you certain things
so you feel that you're not like of
these people they're different and
they're not going to accept you but it's
it's uh it's an illusion it's it's not
true it's a big illusion yeah that's
that's what's amazing to me that's
really blew my mind blew my mind that
was the overwhelming part but it was a
really good feeling all these people
coming together white brown yellow from
all over uh the world they come in to to
to embrace you because now it's you're
part of a Brotherhood yeah coming
together to worship one God now we need
to be steadfast you've chosen and you've
did the most important thing in one's
life Islam is based on Five Pillars you
completed one of them that's the
testimony the second one is to establish
this connection with your creator five
times a day how's that that's good how
many times a day do you eat uh right
around five around five right so this is
something that's very important we have
to work on our soul we have to work on
our connection with our creator so five
times a day the most important thing I
tell my brother Chris here and I tell
everyone is to establish this prayer
know that you will be tried you will be
tested God Almighty tells us this life
is a test so you want to establish the
prayer because the prayer is going to
make you firm in this religion it's
going to make you firm in this way of
life the prayer is your connection with
your creator of the heavens and earth
make sure that you're seeking knowledge
constantly balance your time out well
too much material physical the soul now
becomes dead and that our goal is
Paradise because this life is transitory
think death often and this will remind
you that death is coming so now stay on
doing good stay on seeking truth doing
these good deeds and this is now how you
will attain that ultimate success in
this life and the Hereafter all right
implementing Islam which means
submission surrender to the creator of
the heavens and the Earth staying away
from major sins and God willing you'll
be okay it's not that difficult all
right if you're sincere and you really
want to please your Creator you're going
to do what he says and the system is
there it's all laid out and all you got
to do is just put in the work right like
anything in life I agree you got to you
got to put in the work and especially
for a paradise that is like nothing you
can imagine that's what we're striving
for so brother thank you once again for
being on the dean show and letting
everybody witness the this this
wonderful moment in your life today is
there anything you want to say to
anybody who's you know out there and you
know who's also possibly consider in
Islam keep an open mind and open heart
and uh don't try to be so judgmental and
just uh question everything including
the government and the
media and anybody else who's having a
hard time out there we're here at the
dean show to help you out send us your
emails you have any comments suggestions
we have uh a ton of different topics
that we try to uh cover clearing all the
misconceptions remember if you can dig
this that there's no one worthy of
worship except the creator of the
heavens and earth that you worship him
alone without no Partners everything
else will fall in place and that's the
main Message of Islam and to do good
deeds constantly thank you again brother
thank
you and we'll see you again inshallah on
the dean show asalam alaykum peace be
unto you
