So, I've been praying more and more
recently. I've been praying to God. God,
let my star shine bright [music] again.
Let me go and conquer the world again. I
know I can do it, but without you,
I'm nothing. I'm like any other person.
So, I've been asking God to put his
hands on my chest, put his hands on my
soul, and let my star shine bright
again. Yeah. I've been praying that God
feeds me [music] with the things that
are going to enhance me. You know, take
me to that higher level, that higher
frequency,
remove that veil from in front of me so
I can see clearly again. Do you know
what I mean? It's important.
It's very sad news about Anthony Joshua.
>> Grimacing in pain, Anthony Joshua is
pulled from the wreckage of a crumpled
SUV
>> being involved in a horrific car crash.
In this video clip, you can see him
asking Allah to take him to a higher
level, to a higher frequency, to remove
the veil so he can see clearly. This is
his duas that he's making.
>> I've been praying that God feeds me with
the things that are going to enhance me,
you know, take me to that higher level,
that higher frequency.
Remove that veil from in front of me so
I can see clearly again. Do you know
what I mean?
>> And sometimes the higher level doesn't
come through worldly success. It comes
through calamities, through pain,
through loss. Because when the veil is
lifted, when you can truly see what this
world is dun is all about, you begin to
see what really really matters. He came
very close to death himself. The car was
completely crushed. But he got out
unscathed himself. But his two closest
friends, brothers, Latif and Cena, both
his Muslim brothers, they didn't make
it. They were both very young, 36 years
old. May Allah, God Almighty, the
creator have mercy on them. Forgive them
and grant them Jenna and make it easy
for their families. As you can see here,
they were Nigeria. They weren't thinking
that death was about to approach playing
pingpong. Anthony Joshua just completed
his victory over Jake Paul.
>> What's up, guys? Day after the fight.
Got out of surgery a few hours ago. They
put a plate in my jaw, wired it up.
Hurts to talk, so I'm going to keep it
short. Took the L. Respect to the men
across me. They're in the car. Nobody's
probably thinking that this is it. It's
last thing that can happen. We're all
just hanging by a thread. We just have
We're very helpless. But we forget. We
We truly forget this reality that just
hit them. And they beat us to it. Those
were not just his friends.
We can see they were his brothers. The
This is going to be very hard on Anthony
Joshua. One of them was a revert to
Islam who also had been giving da
helping AJ with Islam and Tony Joshua.
You can see them together. There's AJ's
rapping here about dua about chasing
away gins about striving for Jenna.
>> Where my problem last be go way back. My
thing about me you know my back. I'm
about to spit it to the trap. Let me
take you back where it begins. Ah, we're
making do while getting rid of our sins.
Praying every day. Trying to get rid of
the kins. O, let me take you guys a
humble beginning. What we do is win. We
dream and win. Trying to get to heaven.
Praying. See, brothers and sisters,
death, this is the ultimate reality. And
all those not yet Muslims watching, they
can come at any time. That's a scary
part. It doesn't care how rich you are,
how famous you are, how strong you are.
No matter how much money, cars, houses,
or your status, you're going to leave it
all behind. Alhamdulillah, these
brothers weren't about what most people
are about nowadays.
The nineto-fers or the people who have
made money thinking that success is just
about attaining so much wealth and then
you just see people partying, clubbing
and then they go down that path of drugs
and alcohol living for desires for fame
for this dunya. None of it will help
when death comes. Not at all. Nobody's
actually preparing wanting to talk.
Majority of people are not preparing for
this moment or preparing for the things
that will really be transferable,
the good deeds that will help a person
in the next life. And Islam is the the
only way of life that explains this very
clearly. What happens when we die, what
happens in the grave, the questioning in
the grave, the day of judgment and our
final destination, Jenna, paradise or
the hellfire. This is a reminder for
myself and for everybody who's watching
and listening. Islam gives you gives
humanity a clear blueprint how to live,
how to pass the test of life and how to
be ready when death arrives. The most
important thing is to die upon the
shahada.
This is nothing worthy of worship except
the creator of the heavens and earth.
And Muhammad is the final messenger.
Just like Moses was at his time, Jesus
was at his time. Holding firm to the to
the pure monotheism doing good deeds
seeking the mercy of the creator. This
is what every prophet taught brought to
his people from Adam, Abraham, Moses,
Jesus, and the last and final messenger
sent to mankind, Pro Muhammad. They were
mocked. They were slandered. Just like
Islam is being attacked today, just like
Prophet Muhammad is being attacked
today. But if you are sincere and if you
truly ask God almighty Allah for
guidance, he will remove the veil. So
let's take this as a serious reminder
from this tragedy. We pray for the
brothers who have returned to Allah. May
Allah have mercy on them, their
families. We pray for Anthony Joshua.
May Allah guide him. May Allah
strengthen him, ease his heart, and use
him for good. As we can see, Joshua
would be listening to Quran. We've seen
him in the masid praying.
>> It was a good conversation because
understanding it gives it more meaning.
So that's not actually a song even
though it is sang in a in a melodicious
way.
It's actually not a song. It's the
Quran. And now this can be a catalyst
for him to take things to a whole
another level that God Almighty Allah is
preparing him that he can tomorrow be
the next Malcolm X or somebody greater
than that who's really leaving a true
legacy behind besides all the
championships that he can be strongly
rooted in the dean take a path as the
prophets and messengers did of conveying
this message leaving behind a legacy of
truth calling people to the truth and
then for ourselves again the prophet
Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him
said remember the destroyer of pleasures
death often the intelligent person is
the one who remembers death and the
foolish one is the one who just takes it
as a joke doesn't really think about it
ponder over it like most people they'll
make a joke about it really want to
change the subject but somebody who is
heless of it is not going to prepare for
it and then when these moments like this
come they're not ready But alhamdulillah
we can see from these brothers they were
out there praying doing good deeds
giving in charity. So again, may Allah
forgive them, have mercy on them, and
may we take the matter serious and
remember that this is something that is
awaiting all of us is a very very scary
reality, but it is the reality and
there's no good in ignoring it. But the
wisdom and the intelligent person is the
one who prepares for it. And Islam is
that perfect system. Submission to the
creator, not the creation that helps us
to be ready when that moment of death
comes.
