Loon - In Pursuit of Happiness - From Rap Sensation To Islam - Formerly of Bad Boy Records

Amir Junaid Muhaddith, formerly known as Loon, the famous rap artist, born and raised in Harlem, gives an insight into the true value of Islam. This is the second of a series of 3 talks given by brother Amir (Loon) in his first ever Queensland, Australia tour.

"In Pursuit of Happiness" revolves around three concepts:
1) When you are given you are thankful.
2) When you are tested you are patient.
3) When you have committed a sin you repent and seek forgiveness.

Presented by Australian Muslim Youth Network - AMYN (AMYNweb.com) and HikmahWay Institute (HikmahWay.com).

Brother Amir Junaid Muhadith (Loon) is rapper formerly part of P. Diddy's Bad Boy Records, where he released his self-titled debut album, Loon. He has also made many guest appearances on songs of the R&B and hip hop genres. In 2004, Loon left Bad Boy to start his own label, Boss Up Entertainment. Loon started his music career as a member of Mase's rap collective Harlem World (group). Along with his music Loon has also been featured in two movies directed by Damon Dash, State Property 2 and Death of a Dynasty. In Dec. 2008 Brother Amir accepted Islam whilst on tour in Dubai, UAE. He changed his name to Amir Junaid Muhadith. He recently traveled to Mecca, Saudi Arabia, the holiest and most sacred site of the Islamic religion, to perform Umrah. He has since quit rapping and now is focusing on seeking knowledge and giving Da'wa.

Every born Muslim should be asking himself/herself when watching this if they are as committed to their Deen as they should be.

If yes, great.

If no, how can you commit yourself more, and insha'Allah become like brother Amir?
