00:00There's only one God and we say Allah. Other people say God, they say, he says, yeah, what is that?
00:06Allah. Allah. Say again? Allah. You're almost there, mate. You're almost there.
00:10So we say in Islam, there's only one God and there's only one God worthy of worship.
00:15We don't say a man or spirit sticks or stones. God. God is God. Only God. God is God.
00:21God is God. God is God, mate. That's it, mate.
00:25Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali. I see it. So I do our praise Allah.
00:31Okay. So basically we have like, you could do that in any way you feel comfortable.
00:35But in Islam, yeah, we follow the way of the prophets.
00:37So we don't make it from our own selves, but we can make mistakes.
00:41So we say God, he revealed unto mankind certain things.
00:44So we pray at certain times. Like Muslims, we pray before the sun comes up.
00:48We pray at midday. We pray after midday. We pray where the sun goes down.
00:52I understand. And we pray at night time as well because we say God is worthy of all of our worship.
00:56Right. I understand. But not of any man or anything.
00:59Yeah. Also, one other thing. I hear about people not eating. Is that your to do with your...
01:05Of course. Of course we eat. Of course we eat, Ali.
01:07No, I don't want to be any...
01:09No, no, no. No, no, no. But of course we eat. What do you think we do?
01:12No, but apparently fasting, isn't it called? Fasting. Fasting. Fasting. What's that about?
01:16See, that's what I'm asking you. I only know they fast for a certain amount of time.
01:20I can't eat. I don't understand it.
01:22So basically, basically, this is part of Ramadan. It's a month in Islamic calendar.
01:27So you follow the gregarian calendar, January, February, March.
01:30We follow a different calendar, 12 months as well.
01:33But one of those months we fast.
01:35And this is our respect because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, Allah, God Almighty has told us that we fast in this month.
01:40In this month, we understand what poverty is about, what not being gluttonous, like eating too much is about,
01:46discipline for the soul. So it's a form of worship that God has mandated.
01:50Even Jesus in the Bible, you see Him going to the desert.
01:55They say He fasted for 40 days. 40 days.
01:58We have Moses as well. He was in the wilderness.
02:00But how do you survive? I don't understand.
02:02No, no. We eat. Don't be silly, Ollie.
02:04At the sundown, we eat. We drink and we drink water.
02:07We don't drink alcohol, none of that stuff.
02:09We drink water, we drink and we eat.
02:12But it's only in the daylight that we don't eat.
02:15So from sunrise to sundown, we're fasting.
02:18We don't eat.
02:19Sundown, what time is that? Like 6 o'clock?
02:20It differs. It depends on the country you're in.
02:23So whenever you see the sundown, that's about the time that we break fast.
02:27So at summer times, yeah, sun don't go down to like half 10, 11 o'clock at night, does it?
02:31So you have to be a man. You have to be a man. You have to be a man. It's hard times, yeah.
02:36That's stressful. Yeah, of course.
02:38See, I eat a lot. But look at me. I'm a skinny geezer.
02:42Yeah, yeah, yeah. If I was a fast, I'd be...
02:44No, no. You'd be stronger. You'd be disciplined. You'd be disciplined. Yeah, 100%.
02:48I'll tell you what, yeah. I'm going to look into this religion a bit more.
02:51But what have you looked into so far, Ollie? Like on a serious level now.
02:55I'm not sure.
02:57What's your name? What's your name? Sunny, yeah? Sunny and Ollie, yeah?
03:01Sunny, Ollie, yeah?
03:02Well, I'm not too late. I'm from the West Ham. That's my first religion.
03:05Oh, yeah. You lot just going to the match now? What's the score?
03:07One, one, one.
03:09First of the West Ham, second religion is fucking grass. His third religion is in Christianity.
03:13See, son, this geezer, he's a good man. I'll tell you that.
03:16Ollie's a good man. He's my man. Okay.
03:19Listen, listen. Sunny, yeah? Sunny, yeah? Where are you from? Essex as well?
03:24How's Essex now?
03:25There's some filthy birds over there.
03:29Listen, listen, listen.
03:29What do you... So you're a Christian, yeah? You're a Christian.
03:33Yeah, if I was to follow a religion, that's why I'm trying to grasp your religion.
03:36But would you rather worship a man or would you rather worship God Almighty?
03:40See, I don't worship anyone. That's what I'm trying... That's why...
03:45No, no, but before we were worshipping Jesus as a man.
03:48Right, Sunny? Right, Sunny?
03:51If I was to worship somebody, because my family is a Christian, I don't really like it.
03:55Listen, I've just had a good debate with him. I believe every religion should be allowed to speak to me what you want.
04:00Yeah, yeah. No, that's cool, but you need to speak, right?
04:03Yeah.
04:04What's your name? I've got Ollie, Sunny.
04:06Jensen.
04:06Jensen, yeah?
04:07My name's Sunny, but my name's actually Sebastian.
04:09Sebastian, yeah?
04:10He's Sebastian, but they call him Sunny.
04:11Yeah, yeah.
04:12It's such a weird one.
04:14So, what do you know about Islam? What do you know about Islam?
04:16Okay, but we can speak about this, like you were saying, yeah, without getting offended or this and that, this and that, yeah?
04:22In Islam, we believe in only one God. Do you disagree with that or anything?
04:27Okay, we don't worship men. No Jesus, no Buddha, no Krishna, no nothing.
04:31We worship only God. Does that make sense to you?
04:33Yeah.
04:34Okay, cool.
04:35So, we believe that Islam is the final religion, like, no, no, it's cool, it's cool.
04:40It's like there was religions before, there were religions before.
04:43But those religions were those people at those times, but we say Islam is the final religion.
04:48There's no prophets afterwards.
04:50Do you believe that there should be Christians in this world?
04:53Or do you believe Christians?
04:55No, it's a matter of belief in it, what you believe in it.
04:57I can't stop you like the life of the deen.
04:59I can't stop you in your heart what you believe, you know what I mean?
05:02What do you believe?
05:02I'm a Muslim, I believe only Islam.
05:04I can't believe that we worship a man, Jesus.
05:07Do you believe, is it Allah?
05:08Allah is the name that we use.
05:10Like you lot may use Jehovah, you may use Yahwah.
05:14What is the God of your, what is the name?
05:17We say Allah.
05:18Allah, yeah.
05:18Do you believe Allah would stop you down the road and get you stamped in this damn age?
05:22Huh?
05:22Let's say you had a knife at someone in the club, you look down the road and he pulls out a knife.
05:26Do you believe Allah will protect you?
05:27No, I shouldn't be in that situation in the first place.
05:31I have to tie my, they say, they say, yeah, yeah, exactly.
05:34I shouldn't be in that club in the first place.
05:36I should expose myself to that.
