- 9:28she the book was titled honey or the waves search for the giant
- 9:33Island. Reading it together and she go
- 9:38to a park where said, yeah, a bus as read the book for her
- 9:48yesterday. While she insisted that she
- 9:49wants to read it, which is reading.
- 9:51She got to the yeah boss as straight away.
- 9:54I was like it's not as this 80s, I remembered ASL.
- 9:59But yeah it's for mentioned that how do you how do you end up
- 10:03explaining guitar? The Sean standard, I told him
- 10:05because he has a dog. That means idea is still home.
- 10:08Basically, two different words. Yeah, but some people don't put
- 10:10those weather Watcher it. That's, as I'm like, oh my God,
- 10:13you know, this Ramadan after I'm trying, I'm trying God's my
- 10:17witness, but I'm trying to do something which I'm not doing
- 10:20before Ramadan. Like in terms of the way, I read
- 10:23the whole you put on, or, for example, I'm watching something
- 10:27like a lecture or something different, but I have, I don't
- 10:30know what it is for me. I'm a very, I learned a lot
- 10:33through audio-visual and I mean, so either watching Like a video
- 10:37documentary or something? Or I'm listening to a lecture.
- 10:40I'm a bad reader. Like not in terms of Quran, but
- 10:42like a books. Hmm.
- 10:44I'm terrible with books as I. Yeah, I'm not.
- 10:46What about Harry Potter? The last Harry Potter book.
- 10:49I remember as a kid last one. I just opened it.
- 10:52The last blast basil that does he died was.
- 10:54Yeah, that's what I wanted to know.
- 10:56But like, especially this one move on.
- 10:57I'm trying to maybe try a bit better.
- 11:00Like with my Holy Quran recitation, trying to improve
- 11:03improve my fluency, you know. I mean, am I?
- 11:06My wife, she's Masha, Allah Veronica Arabic is good.
- 11:10So I'll read an eye on her block.
- 11:12Was that mean? She was told me next.
- 11:14I was that mean, you know what generally love doing that
- 11:18everything they read, they have to lack of understanding of.
- 11:20Oh, you don't we take advantage? Do that at all Native Arabic
- 11:25speakers like you guys have used.
- 11:28Speak the tongue of the Holy Quran.
- 11:30Why it goes in one? Ear comes out the other but you
- 11:33when you hear it does it, you like, you don't reflect.
- 11:35I just don't think. Naturally understanding.
- 11:38Yeah, so when you hear of us and of the Quran, do you understand
- 11:42what it means? Without thinking about my
- 11:45eyebrows are great. So I thought I would say 50 50.
- 11:48Yeah. In terms of like 50 stuff just
- 11:51just you need to just avoid saying the basic.
- 11:54Yes. Really if you're not the era
- 11:56because I hope you yeah. Yeah it does it does for us, is
- 11:59it 100%, 100% High School are gone.
- 12:03You can't say like you're reading Arabic and you're Arab
- 12:06and you can't, you can't say, I don't understand what's
- 12:08happening. Maybe you don't understand the
- 12:09full context or the full meaning behind the verse.
- 12:12But you have that basic understanding of what Being
- 12:14said, you know, a really nice example is Dodge, ocean career.
- 12:17Hmm. I think it's very understandable
- 12:19when you listen to it. So, for example, get your
- 12:22analytical anuria etc. Etc.
- 12:25It's very understandable. So, as a terrible roommate,
- 12:28native Arabic speaker. You probably enjoy it more than
- 12:32anyone else. So yeah, people's actual reading
- 12:34there before all alone. No way.
- 12:36Yeah, I just wanted to ask beautiful.
- 12:39Just takes you to Allah. Yeah honestly she always joseon
- 12:42if you're not Don't go into it with a preparation.
- 12:45I'm going to ride it out. The Hulk is obviously is a
- 12:48hundred verses, right? Yeah, each of us has 10.
- 12:51So you're listening to a thousand names of Allah subhana
- 12:53Allah. If you don't go in with a
- 12:56mindset, like I'm going to smash this, and I'm going to start to
- 12:58end halfway through, you're going to Zona you.
- 13:01Just thought humming get in your head.
- 13:03So Monica, not not focusing on it, we should be.
- 13:07But the thing is I think you have to read the with the
- 13:09melody. Yeah, I think that's when
- 13:11they're the crowd. Makes it very careful.
- 13:13Forget the crowd. If you're reading it myself a
- 13:15home, the reading like a parrot, right?
- 13:17It's not a point for that. One hundred percent is a
- 13:21morality, you know what to do. I'm gonna stuff the way you hear
- 13:24our mosque. That's the way.
- 13:25But, you know, I was thinking yesterday, as you feel it, you
- 13:27feel every word if you, every meaning going just as I was
- 13:30listening to Barbra Hamza. Same clip, who's the go?
- 13:35I love him goats. He's the go greatest greatest of
- 13:38all time. Lisi and Rinaldo.
- 13:46So he goes. No.
- 13:47I was thinking like imagine you these videos are for someone
- 13:50like me. I can't pick up dog.
- 13:53Do Abu Hamza of his very long. Yeah.
- 13:55An hour-long when you're invited.
- 13:57And for me, I'll maybe pick up one word every line or two words
- 14:01every line. You know?
- 14:02I mean and for me, I would rely on the translation.
- 14:06A lot of the time. The translation is written in
- 14:08Alden, English. Yea, verily.
- 14:10Yea She'll go. This picture - yeah.
- 14:13Shakespearean English, right? Yeah.
- 14:14But they just trying to make it sound correct.
- 14:16But even then even with the olden days, you still managed to
- 14:19get the gist of it. I was thinking up, bro.
- 14:20What a Thorpe? Like if you're someone who's
- 14:23translated to are like if I wanted to do that now, I can't.
- 14:27How do you manage to fear? Not my laughter.
- 14:30You have started on the day, the outside of kedar like prayers
- 14:33and the eyes and I just I don't think I have a routine.
- 14:36Sometimes are some things can be done during the day during the
- 14:40fast. It doesn't have to be after
- 14:42Mother peony after for me there is no routine to be on the can
- 14:46be whenever I have the time or shall I make the time?
- 14:49Yeah. For these things but I don't
- 14:50have like specific timing or I do this on a specific.
- 14:53I think it was beautiful. Sometimes you see our mothers
- 14:56late at night they stay off my land.
- 15:00You always think to yourself like idea you want to be a part
- 15:03of it? Yes that's my mom, my little
- 15:05brother. He's three years old sometimes.
- 15:07The exit through the night my mom's doing at my.
- 15:09So she wish to do is like And put some sleep while she's
- 15:12reading or on the bed next day. Mark, that's amazing.
- 15:15But you know what? That's that, that that thing,
- 15:18there's a reason why in the so many are Hadith about fasting
- 15:21the day and praying at night and like, at nighttime, it's meant
- 15:24to be metaphorical in the world is Switched Off, so I was
- 15:28asleep. No one's watching you, you
- 15:29alone? Yeah, you can follow with Omar.
- 15:32You have your time, you can reflect your relation with the
- 15:35Creator. Honestly, spot of luck for me,
- 15:37at least. When I think of my most,
- 15:40Spiritual memories, like, on my ones by myself.
- 15:44It's always at night or early morning.
- 15:46Fudger, you know, I'm saying. Like, for me, at least.
- 15:48That's that's when I, when I hit the spot when I do, I'll mile
- 15:51away to everyone's asleep in the house.
- 15:54I'll do it. But that's also the best time.
- 15:55You can bang out a Netflix series.
- 15:57Yeah, that's the thing. Is one of the other is a
- 15:59struggle. Which one do you think La
- 16:01Crosse? Knock also boy, is that just a
- 16:03normal that like, if it's outside of Ramadan, would you
- 16:05do? I want to watch Netflix?
- 16:07That's the thing. But you do people do Salat too
- 16:08late as well. I mean the thing is outside
- 16:12little move on. If you're not doing it then
- 16:14Now's the Time to do it like even if you're doing a full
- 16:17month but if you're even you're reading like for me my nails
- 16:21like I'm going to try and read or on every day and not just
- 16:25read it but try and understand with them.
- 16:27So try and look where I'm like I was reading Surah al-imran like
- 16:31a few days ago and it was crazy during the day.
- 16:35Before I read that the verse out during the day, I came across
- 16:38the verse. I think it's true.
- 16:39All of us were three of us 103 or something like that.
- 16:42Hold on to the Rope of Allah do not be divided.
- 16:44We hear a lot of talk about, unity, all of that stuff.
- 16:47But late in that verse I lost my entire says, and do not
- 16:51something along the lines of do not be ignorant of the net
- 16:54amount that I was giving you. The blessings are God's given
- 16:56you and it was interesting actually had alcohol night.
- 17:02He was reciting that bus. And while he was reciting it,
- 17:06my, my missus walked in and she put down the software, the name.
- 17:10Came in yeah, that my formulas. So aside from God we had that
- 17:13conversation and later in the night I was reading my Quran and
- 17:17I came across diverse, I was like, yo, this is a site, they
- 17:21drive away. Yeah, it's nice because you
- 17:23reflect on these things and I've always thought about that verse
- 17:25in the eyes and the lens of unity.
- 17:28Hold on to the Rope of Allah do not be divided.
- 17:30But then I thought of it, as in a different way, have you, have
- 17:33you ever Googled? Have you ever done that thing
- 17:34where you open up on randommaia? Because you've got something in
- 17:37your mind also called Notice the heart.
- 17:41Oh, I'm talking about, like a generic, just conversation you
- 17:44and God, you know, so an Alaia. The other day, one of my friends
- 17:47done is to Cara. So normally he's got his friends
- 17:50kala. He messages for istikhara, get
- 17:53messaging messenger came. He didn't play so, he caught a
- 17:56different color up. He's like, certain, he does the
- 17:58Cara gave him. The answer of open, the Quran,
- 18:01gave him the fake diverse and then an hour later the other
- 18:04scholar go back to him and subhanallah.
- 18:06He given the exact same us the way.
- 18:09Sick. It's crazy.
- 18:11But I know someone who did the car but and it was about
- 18:17children and something like that.
- 18:20And the first that came out was the verse that we created you
- 18:23from a drop of semen when we developed um we put Flesh on
- 18:27your bones and so on, I was like gross upon a lot.
- 18:31Like sometimes you get the most specific and most unique higher,
- 18:34you'll think it's like gods revealed it just for you.
- 18:37General manager of the Los Angeles.
- 18:39The car doesn't have to be as hard.
- 18:41No, but something that similarly, she was a law is no,
- 18:49wait, yeah, but you can do it any point.
- 18:51Like you just might feel know that they say like if you like
- 18:56really confused no but I think what am I saying sometimes like
- 18:59you feel something in your heart and you just open the Quran and
- 19:02it sort of speaks to. Yeah, even if you're not feeling
- 19:05anything, it's like I'm I'm feeling nothing this right now.
- 19:09Nice thing to do nice habit, up in the barn, look at a random
- 19:12verse reflect on it, even if it's related to it.
- 19:14Yeah, please try and find something from it benefits and
- 19:17for me that's probably something that we should probably try to
- 19:19do them another force of it that way.
- 19:22But yeah, what's your favorite child is chai aftertaste is
- 19:31mint. Mint tea with tea.
- 19:37Look like shadrock can see was banging, yes, but coffee latte.

- 19:58messages, these are 1 in the morning.
- 20:03I just need 16 hours. Stay awake, six hours.
- 20:08And that's when we have the best aftermarket meetings.
- 20:13So, that's true. That's true.
- 20:18And we have a character. I think ours is different to the
- 20:21normal child. We have at home as I'm a lot
- 20:24safer. Okay, yes.

- 21:38TT. We never had that.
- 21:39No, it's not attend. It's you want for me?
- 21:43We had GG. Not GG, good game, good game.
- 21:46She said Sally after apology if I said to say like yeah.
- 21:49GG. And my brother.
- 22:30Of the guys in the office. Who's your age at Masada?
- 22:33He's like yeah, they're similar to trap store my brother's like
- 22:35what's the Trap stuck like that? You'd wear it with your he's
- 22:40he's he's like who's Weezy? And made me think.
- 22:43Like, a few years can can change someone's perspective on the
- 22:47walls? That's crazy.
- 22:49It's crazy though. I said, GG to you and I'm only a
- 22:51few years younger than a good game.
- 22:54Good game. What's your experience with
- 23:01working with Don Muslims experience working with
- 23:04non-muslims? When you get these like big big
- 23:06people have to work with. It depends because if for me, at
- 23:09least I'm lucky because in our office, we're very keen about
- 23:13the sort of people that work with us, everyone in the office.
- 23:16Got to be good people. First and foremost, you know I
- 23:18mean like about Clark and the way they are as people.
- 23:21Then their understanding at times like a lot more than those
- 23:23who your workplace. Hi.
- 23:25This is what. Yeah.
- 23:26And because to be honest because I run the business with with
- 23:30Families. So in essence, the team who
- 23:32joins us are good guys, or good ladies or whatever.
- 23:36So they devised you know, I mean you can talk to him about on
- 23:39Madonna wherever there's a brother who who we employed
- 23:43recently who's from a different school of thought.
- 23:47Again, there's a lot of like Beauty and that relationship
- 23:50because we can shout share each other's experiences.
- 23:52I'm fasting his fasting to know. I mean, I like it.
- 23:55But when you meet clients, it's hard.
- 23:57I have to meet clients every week.
- 23:59I'll go out. And I go to Nice places and you
- 24:01have an experience with clients or at least four years.
- 24:05I must have been too, like, to 300 client meetings.
- 24:08Like, I'm talking I've been to, like, the Tapas Tapas like,
- 24:13Mayfair multi multi multi million pound, like show, you
- 24:17know, with me till today, and I get anxious when I meet people
- 24:21who are not from our community. Because you think, I think I
- 24:24have these a lot of Muslim habits.
- 24:26For example, you say, salam alaikum, or ya, aini, ya, any
- 24:29all these Stuff and yeah I stress about that a lot.
- 24:32I'm not like that. Yeah I'm completely over it
- 24:35every time owners say the word Bots are say best.
- 24:37Hey not the funniest one I found which I didn't notice until
- 24:41someone told me when I meet someone I put my hand on my
- 24:43chest salaam alaikum, until someone told you.
- 24:46So someone came up to me and I never did
- 25:03It's acting badly but I would say belly and then release yes
- 25:07under a rock you think but then someone for those things like
- 25:09belly. Yeah, it's your belly so so
- 25:11baffled. Well, it's funny but it's
- 25:13interesting because I've met clients like I've been to weird
- 25:17me because I meet a really nice meetings.
- 25:19But generally the hardest thing is when I meet a client and
- 25:22Islam of on clients generally quite hospitable, you're either
- 25:25meeting for the first time or your repeat client.
- 25:28So when you go to meet him look, oh Ahmed What can I get you a
- 25:31coffee? Make sure a tee.
- 25:33How about some water? I'm not gonna call her.
- 25:34I'm okay Maura and I don't want to tell them I am fasting and
- 25:38then eventually like why aren't you drinking if you get offended
- 25:41they bring you biscuits and snacks like I'm fasting I'm
- 25:43sorry. And then the thing is I don't
- 25:45know if you guys build this so I don't know if you have to
- 25:48interact this but sometimes I think like am I treated
- 25:52differently because I'm called Ahmed and I have a beard and I'm
- 25:57a Muslim and I just thought I mean That sort of clientele I
- 26:01work with is predominantly non-muslim, so I don't know.
- 26:05You guys experienced that, no really, you know, the way this
- 26:08one, I found so recently, I've started working with more
- 26:12Christian Iraqis, the Muslim and Rockies and especially during
- 26:16Easter. We'd have food every day.
- 26:19We get lunch together. And then during Easter, they
- 26:21don't, they weren't eating while they're fasting, they fast
- 26:25during Easter. The first thing was, but I've
- 26:26never seen this from British Christians.
- 26:28For example, it's nice. But Christian rock is a that
- 26:32they fought as we do on Amazon, but for the occasion, if, you
- 26:35know, if you go to the Middle East, like if you go to like,
- 26:39say Syria or Iraq, for example, these places you find
- 26:42Christians, the act differently to the Western Christians.
- 26:45Yeah, that's like completely different is what I get the
- 26:48feeling is they sort of see Muslims how devoted they are to
- 26:52God and religion and it has an effect on them.
- 26:55Yeah, probably Christians had don't have that same effect from
- 26:58Muslims as well. That's why, like, normal on is,
- 27:01is a perfect time to be like publicly Muslim, you know?
- 27:06I mean, yeah, like, in my work, one of the guys will say, oh,
- 27:11how are you going like without water or so, you know, someone
- 27:14said to me today, like how you working harder today than you
- 27:17normally works? Like a Monday.
- 27:19Am, you know, I find myself more productive.
- 27:22We are Bostick sometimes. Yes, sometimes of dying I can do
- 27:25more. Have you seen the story of the
- 27:27NBA player would have the role of I showed this the us together
- 27:30was shocked as well. One more than Trove.
- 27:32Is he? Well known.
- 27:33So what happened to him? After he became Muslim, his team
- 27:36was going to kick him out. I think he played for the
- 27:38Chicago. Yeah he was a big player this
- 27:41guy because he became a when he became Muslim.
- 27:43He saw he started taking time out for his prayers.
- 27:47It's all these not really at his team.
- 27:48What really affected by they hated a lot and then it got to
- 27:52Ramadan and he's like this and I need to fast.
- 27:54Yeah. But his coach wasn't letting
- 27:56him, he wasn't having it. So I think long along the story
- 28:01during Ramadan that first run without he end up playing better
- 28:04than he normally does. So after finished, they kept
- 28:07telling him when's Ramadan coming back again but you know
- 28:10what? That's like a lot of footballers
- 28:11as well. And this year is the first year
- 28:13that the Premier League is introducing a break during games
- 28:16from Koreatown every team. Now has three for Muslim
- 28:19players, like if I look at Liverpool, yeah.
- 28:22Obviously we lost a few but recently but we've got some
- 28:25place, huh, you lost that your money, but Oh yeah.
- 28:28My Masala and there's like that. We've got bear plays.
- 28:32So I mean it's still putting up Christmas trees.
- 28:34Yeah, let's not talk about Salah right now.
- 28:37We're not in a good place. We are not as you're right
- 28:40honestly, there you can be more productive like mentally
- 28:42spiritually, physically. I think it's a good time to
- 28:44improve your eyeballs like Salah, honestly, because a lot
- 28:47of us probably struggle, especially youth, not praying at
- 28:50all praying late. I think Chef drop somebody
- 28:52mentioned as well. You know what I find is a lot of
- 28:54fun. After those who don't pray,
- 28:56pray. Yeah, or make it should make an
- 29:00effort to yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 29:01You can be completely like out of this world.
- 29:06Yeah. And you've got no connection
- 29:07spiritually with a lot. Um, but you know, God exists,
- 29:10you know, of course, I'm booked up, you know, there's like
- 29:13consequences for everything that you do be a good or bad.
- 29:16Ugly. Whatever is someone comes,
- 29:18everyone stranger one that doesn't want.
- 29:20Her job was to wager on. That doesn't play was to pray.
- 29:23The one that's never, you know, touch the book, The Quran, only
- 29:26a funerals now starting I don't want every day.
- 29:28I just lies like, you know, relationship to new on the
- 29:32dedicated you and Allah. Ya is 30 day, 29 days whether
- 29:36it's just you and God continues Beyond from one for everyone.
- 29:40So do you guys do you guys find that your Salah improves as
- 29:43well? Yes it does.
- 29:45I don't know why and I don't know what it is either I think
- 29:48it's when you're in the state of fasting you show more spiritual.
- 29:51Yeah. If you're conscious all the time
- 29:53that you're in a state of service to Allah.
- 29:55So what I mean, what time Feel the best connection and follow
- 30:00wasn't what time of day. Yeah, for me, it's the mug lip.
- 30:05When I tried this money, this year, the market Upsala before I
- 30:09eat, I try, I'm trying to split my prayers to the market if I'm
- 30:13praying before I close the shop for later after a fire.
- 30:17The reason why is because I want to try and focus my Maghrib and
- 30:21take a bit longer in it and enjoy it more before I eat
- 30:25because then if I'm praying Market have been in shock.
- 30:27Then and then I get full and I get lazy and I'm not feeling it.
- 30:31If I know they're later, I've got a pretty sure then our Focus
- 30:34to get me a, like, I know I've got a pretty sure I might as
- 30:37well sit down have a quote on with me and spear.
- 30:39You know, I mean, like that's a short of Salah then after
- 30:43because I'm not pretty much gonna be as well, so I can spend
- 30:45more time to do more quality from your soul of.
- 30:47Yeah, I've always I can never do alone.
- 30:52Ever, really have to combine, what's a even nowadays, even
- 30:56though this really Let's see if I fail or three.
- 30:59Also has different. I don't know.
- 31:02What is the Masters always together?
- 31:04For me? More of that.
- 31:05I've never said. It was with me.
- 31:07Sir prayer. Yeah, one of those ones.
- 31:09What feels caramba isn't ha ha. Yeah.
- 31:13It's like when it's I eat, you know, the drinking a tradition
- 31:24for decades every morning they give coffee once a year.
- 31:27They give coffee in the mosque on either fitted every year,
- 31:30bro. The worst I don't think the
- 31:32worst but the weirdest feeling is having coffee in the morning
- 31:35after one month of fasting. Yeah.
- 31:37It just so weird just hard on feels hot and then every year I
- 31:42have this feeling that end of Ramadan like you know what, I'm
- 31:44going to keep Foster going to try and keep frosting like okay
- 31:47well faster he day but then after I want to click continue
- 31:49well I'm really on my mind that's very right because
- 31:51everyone will not always like, you know, I'm going to try
- 31:53keeping up for example. The habit of staying away from
- 31:56food was, which is Can ya never lost all my, you know, my
- 32:00daughter haneen. I thought they are new models
- 32:03know that I spent time teaching, you know, kids pick up the
- 32:06alley, very quick, very good for she knows like I thought like
- 32:10struggles and stuff. You say things like that?
- 32:13Well what I thought it was one time, she went, she went on high
- 32:19bit of a sofa, so she got like a chair put on top of the sofa.
- 32:23Sofa is really high and she got a chair.
- 32:25No, she's up on there and she jumped say that.
