			So Ali went there last week.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			He said for 2 hours, then he offloaded.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			He said, I need to tell you a
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:32
			story.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			He said, when I was young,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			I was gonna get married, and this beautiful
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			girl was 20 years old.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			The wedding card was printed.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			The hall was booked, the caterer was booked,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			my suit was organized, the girl's bright outfit
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			was organized,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			and that same week, there was a car
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:51
			accident,
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			and she died.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			He said, that day I lost faith in
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:56
			god almighty.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			And I've lost faith in god almighty all
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:00
			these years.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			But he said something changed.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			He said, I saw your guys work. I'm
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			not advertising. I'm giving you a story, the
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			reality what happens.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			I saw your guys work,
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			and I realize
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			there is a compassionate god.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			I didn't understand that accident why.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			But today, I understand there is a compassionate
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			god when I see the work you will
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			do, and you will don't do it for
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			Muslims only.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			You will do it across the board for
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			plants, for animals, for creation, for black, for
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			white, for rich, for poor. There has to
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			be a compassionate God because you can't get
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			this from nowhere. It has to come from
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:38
			somewhere.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			You said, I went back to the bible.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			I'm reading again
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			and I'm trying to find my faith in
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			god almighty.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			Simple thing
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52
			of doing work and assisting people.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			You touch the hearts of creation. This is
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			what Islam is all about. We don't create
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			fiction. We know our hearts. It's pure human.
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			Did we go and give a whole lecture?
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			The Quran says this and the Quran says
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			that, and you gotta pray 5 times a
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			mass and you will go for a we
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			didn't do anything.
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			We just did service unconditionally,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			which is what the emphasis of Islam is.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			Surah Myoun.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			You you are not in need of your
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			prayer. I don't need your prayer.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			If you don't do navalities,
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			throat, crack in your face.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			I don't need your prayer.
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			If you cannot help fellow being, what is
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			the purpose of prayer?
