No You're not a Sayed? I wish Well Ali Favid who has joined us tonight to lighten up our night and we'll click it off with a couple of questions Asalaamu Alaikum How are you doing? How's things? You alright? We talked about the yesterday bro How are you doing? Are you hot? No Is the weather good? It's fine 40 degrees How are you? How's things? You alright? Introduction? Straight into the game The viewers love the games I got some good feedback by the way regarding yesterday Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah Alhamdulillah So I'm looking forward to beating you again That's Yesterday was a tie Come on bro Anyways So This show is dedicated towards knowing stuff about you Right Stuff about the guest Yes, that's right Now it happens to be Ali Favid Alright? Now For knowing about you a lot of people know you as a reciter Yesterday we talked about behind the scenes of Ali Favid who is Ali Favid behind all the productions Now Yesterday we talked about 10 years to 12 years of being in this business in this business So It's not a business Just to correct everyone But okay It's a service industry Please, please It's a service Service, Allah Service Tov, Abdullah, I like that Anyways But hey Remember we talked about yesterday integrating with society and getting them to understand our principles Yeah, for them let's just say it's the recitation business The non-Muslims can understand what it's like But the fact that you had to defend all of that says something But anyways I don't know what everything I say is on the scrutiny So Okay Now the first question that I want to ask is 10 to 12 years Have you ever been criticized and how many? Yes Yeah I have been criticized a couple of times for the work The only reason why people criticize is because something is out of the norm and when it comes to change people are very skeptical because they like the way things are If you say they have to change they have to get out of their comfort zone get someone out of their comfort zone it's uncomfortable and by the time they realize oh actually it's not that bad then it becomes part of their comfort zone So a couple of years back about five years ago me and a couple of brothers we really had an interest in propagating the message of Imam Hussein the message of Islam especially during Muharram to the non-Muslims and to the wider audiences and we touched about this yesterday about utilizing the West and the East and their melodies to try and bring something new and different in terms of recitations Yes and the Shia of Imam Hussein Now everyone is accustomed to their own culture so the Araki's are used to their own latmiyats and it's what they do it's what their culture is it's what their rituals are fine the Indo-Pak community the Iranian community the Afghan community the Khadji community the Pakistani community everyone has their own communities and what their norm is and what their comfortable is what they're comfortable with So what I did no one was really accustomed to Western songs they weren't really accustomed to Western songs being or the name of Imam Hussein Islam being sung in a way which is oh this sounds like a song or this sounds like oh this has some music in it for example Yeah So I I sought I sought the I sought the scholars and I spoke to the scholars I asked them what can and what can't be done in terms of the Islamic law and in terms of what's right and what's wrong and jurisprudentially right so and I came up with a track Is that your phone? No it's not actually my phone's here Alright yeah Sorry to cut you off Bam you're good I can hear a vibration So I I came up with a track Yeah The track isn't your so usually within within Muharram and especially Ratmiyat the poem is always describing the tragedy right so describing how Imam Hussein Islam fell or how Abbas Islam went to the river or how Qasem came to his mother and said I you know I want to help my it's all about describing the actual tragedy itself there's nothing to actually speak about how would I say it's self-development alright so something that people can relate to I remember I said yesterday as well where there are certain terms that non-Muslims are just not aware of they don't really know what Karbala is they don't really know who Imam Hussein is they don't really know who what tragedy is and what battle took place centuries and centuries ago they don't really care but what they do care is about common values which are shared between us as humans so they share values such as hope freedom sacrifice these kinds of stuff so what I did was I utilized these values that are common between us as Muslims and non-Muslims and I came up with a track the track was to be to be on the safe side very different to the norm I called it higher and it's about utilizing Imam Hussein's message to ascend yourself to higher echelons and to really try and connect with your Lord through Imam Hussein so the criticism was oh this sounds like a song or this is like music and blah blah blah blah and the majority of the feedback that I got was very positive it's like oh this is actually great because now our young children our young children can connect with Imam Hussein through this or the non-Muslims can connect with Imam Hussein through this so it received some positive feedback but the criticism was that basically oh this is different to what we're used to and this is haram and so on and so forth that was probably the only criticism that I faced the only criticism you got now yesterday we did talk about mixing rap with you know religious songs yeah okay okay now to continue that discussion in higher you mixed in some stuff we can't we can't deny that yeah so why was it okay to mix some stuff with that but not okay for rap to mixing with okay so number one I haven't I didn't say that rappers is not okay to mix so I'm always always on the firm believer that anyone who wants to utilize in their own way in their own way go ahead so even if someone wants to come up with a rap song about Imam Hussein then by all means yeah every scholar is different when it comes to their own interpretation of what is allowed and what is not allowed yeah okay so when it comes to what's Halan and what's Haram the Marajat so you know what I've taught you the basics I've told you what's right and what's wrong yeah okay it's now up to you to use your own logic and say okay from what the Marajat have told me from the framework they can't the Marajat the scholars can't go through every single case there's Haram next they can't do that so they give you a guideline a framework and say you know what if it takes you away from Allah SWT or if it puts you into sin or if it reminds you of a place or a person that you're not supposed to be remembering then yes it falls under the category of Haram however if for example it takes you towards Imam Hussein or it doesn't remind you of Ahl al Fasoq or it doesn't remind you of a club or a disco or anything like that then it's absolutely fine so they give you the framework so I've used that framework you know we can utilize that I've utilized their frameworks that made it to my benefit now when it comes to rap like I said because rap is so out of the norm and because rap has such a bad connotation when people are automatically you know what I don't want anything to do that because it has such a bad connotation but like I said if it's the audience that the rappers are rapping towards or the rapping for that audience if one or two or three or four or five people can say you know what that sounds great and what is this Hussein that you talk about what's the sacrifice that you talk about if they come towards the religion then then who am I or you or anyone else to say that's wrong so that's that's what in a nutshell alright in a nutshell but this is this is a discussion which I've had over and over and over again with lots of people and I don't mind having discussion I love these kind of discussions because it really brings out themselves and they question okay so I said this but I'd love for people to really question what they believe in because the only way you can reach certainty is if you ask questions you ask questions you get an answer you ask questions you get an answer until you reach some sort of certainty in your life perfect now did I ask you yesterday would you ever rap or no would I ever rap okay no no I have a secret you have a secret what's your secret okay so in one of my tracks okay yes it's a secret no longer but yeah no longer a secret I mean it's not a secret because it's that in the public it's on YouTube anyone wants to find it so why do you say a secret well because between me and you it's like oh have you ever rapped hold on I haven't personally rapped okay I haven't personally rapped but the track no no not really everyone is associated with their own culture I don't know how to it's like if you are someone to do the piano I don't have to do the piano I don't know how to do it or if you are someone to write a book I don't have to write a book I don't know how to do these things it's not part of my culture I've never had to use the skills rapping is a skill I mean there's an art be able to utilize those words in such a way where it comes out so fast and so profoundly it hits straight away I mean it's at the end of the day it's an artistic form it's an artistic expression so this track it's about the prophet and what so there's there's what stanza the beat basically you know how the qasida has a beat so the first stanza is me reciting the second stanza me reciting and then the third stanza is actually someone else rapping about the prophet and about the love for the prophet and the Ahlul Bayt and then it links back into the chorus so if anyone wants to now is this rapping to a beat no no it's just it's called freestyle so there's no musical instruments in there it's just freestyle but because again because it sounds different it's like wow this is different I don't want anything to do this because it's different but actually if you really just uncover just uncover what what exactly it is people will find you know what actually this doesn't really like okay if you actually uncover what it is so the rapping is just speaking very fast let's just be honest I mean is that really so bad it's a question you have to ask yourself don't know about the framework or the monagia and so on and so forth then the day I'm not here to preach and say this Haram it's all down to the scholars whatever the scholars will say then follow it by all means but question at the end of the day you're allowed to question and the scholars will openly say question me why not even Imam Ali says question me before you leave me so just tell me like if there's something on your mind question let's discuss so we can find some sort of certainty alright I'll do ask you please do before we do now Ali Fadlan in his spare time quickly Ali Fadlan in his spare time what do you do I'm very much a family man back in London I work nine to five Monday to Friday what do you work so I'm a business development executive I work in sales in short marketing no so we have a date yeah so there's a I sell data to food companies in a nutshell it's much more deeper than that it's a nice job it's utilizing my passion but that that's your job that's my job spare time spare time like I said I'm very much a family man so I I always not yet there's actually one on the way and this is the first time I've actually released it live on TV live on Imam Hussein on TV Ali Fadlan is getting a child boy or girl inshallah it's going to be a boy inshallah his name is Hussein inshallah in the next couple of months so pray for me inshallah it works out well and the baby is healthy inshallah so in my spare time I love to visit my family so I live a couple of minutes away for my parents and my in-laws as well so I like to go out and spend time with them because the thing is being the elder brother I want to take an active role because I've left the household doesn't mean I've actually left the family I love to you know find out what my mom is doing what my father is doing what my brother is doing he's in a pivotal age he's like 15 now so he's reaching adolescence I want to be a friend to him at the same time discipline it's very much a difficult time and I've got younger sisters and nieces and nephews so I love spending time with the family as much as I can because I want to be connected with them as much as I can rather than just be concentrating on work and career family for me family values is very important I've always spoken about it and that's what I'd like to perfect other than that I tried to play football soccer but I've had two knee injuries in the last couple of years yeah have you heard of an ACL injury? no so a lot of basketball players actually get this injury because basketball is a very agile they rely a lot on their knees so they rely a lot on their knees so with their knees sorry I'm so sorry because by the way guys we have we have earpieces earpieces and we get pieces of information we get pieces of information sent to us through our ears and the manager just said okay so with these ACL injuries I have to have surgery to okay so the ACL is anyway so yes this actually speaking of parts if you had the chance or the choice to change one part in your body to change one part in my body one part please no not your knees something else no everything else it's fine I'm going to give you my honest answer anyway you just ruined the game anyways anyway sorry this one I'm not going to by the way in sales in sales in sales exactly what kind of responsibility in sales there's a way I mean what kind of response in make up anything once I was in sales there's a thing that we have part of the skills that we learn is when we're asking questions it's leading questions to an answer that you know they're going to answer so in saying that for example you could have asked aside from your knees what other body position or body feature or anything would you have like to change nice that way it's eliminated my knees because I just told you I'm very passionate about my knees because I want to play soccer and the reason I can't play soccer is because of my knees great thank you let's go to inserts let's go to quick inserts before we jump into our games fun and games and see how the

So we'll see you in a couple of minutes Welcome back dear respected viewers of Imam Hussein that TV 3 the English side or the English Channel the English Category of the Imam Hussein media group. Let's just say The English department. Sorry, though the words just totally missed my mind the English department of the Imam Hussein media Group you are watching light my nights Coming to you live from the holy city of Karbala during the month of Shaban Light our nights lights. Yeah, like our nights. That's why I said yeah lights our nights The special show upon which we try to get out of the norm and to celebrate the births of Imam Hussein alaihi salam Imam al-Sajjad and Abul-Fadal al-Abbas and to complete our celebration It will be the birth of Imam Mehdi our awaited saviour Ajallahu ta'ala farajim al-Sharif so Before the break we had my dear and esteemed co-host Ahmadi Ali where again just to give you an insight of regarding the programs We are celebrating the births of these immaculate imams So we're trying to really give a joyous and humorous atmosphere so that people can enjoy themselves and bringing you The positive atmosphere the positive energy that is live here in Karbala to your homes across the globe And so this part of the show is again to you the dear viewer of the of the channel You must be sitting there Watching the show thinking I wish I can be here in Karbala for this holy month and I Like just looking at the streets itself. I mean I my direct view is the shrine of Abul-Fadal al-Abbas alaihi salam Literally lit up with lights There's there's lights that are green and yellow and red and pink literally to State to the world that we are celebrating the births of these immaculate personalities associated with Islam and You must be sitting there thinking oh, I've been there for Arba'een and I've been there for Muharram Muharram and Arba'een has a totally totally different vibe and different atmosphere to the month of Shaaban Personally I went out in the streets today Like I promised and I asked a couple of a couple of people a couple of the citizens You know, what what what do they feel or what how do they really prepare for the month of Shaaban? and so we we we spoke to I personally spoke to a shopkeeper just close to the streets of The the shrine of Abul-Fadal al-Abbas alaihi salam and he was telling me that This month is not only a month of celebration, but it is a month that we prepare for Ramadan so we we tend to like to Connect with our families because Ramadan is a time of family values that it so they they they they try to spend as much time With their own families, but when it comes to serving the visitors of Allah say I say them They have what's called the little stands outside of their homes or even outside of their shops So the same way in Muharram, you'd have people giving out food Or providing shelter within the month of Shaaban people are giving out sweets like they're giving out candy to people They're giving out box of drinks as well And so that's and of course they're all wearing bright colors like white and yellow To signify that they are indeed Celebrating the births of these these immaculate imams not only that I've literally just heard what's called a hell hula. I think it's yeah so hell hula is like a Cry when it comes to the Iraqis and celebrations and it's it's yeah, it's actually quite weird to hear it But hey, you're in Iraq and you're in Karbala. So people are actually enjoying themselves There's there's there's congregations where instead of lamentations and people and performing lot or anything like that People are actually clapping and they're singing together. So it's a it's a beautiful atmosphere Here in Karbala the numbers aren't so much and like I said the numbers usually tend to increase when it comes to the night of Friday Not only that but when it comes to the actual birth of imam Mehdi aji Allah ta'ala for a George Sharif There is a major Spiritual aspect of that birth when it comes to Amal and performing certain deeds and of course it is highly highly recommended To perform the Ziyara of Imam Hussein aleyhi salam So like I said, we have opened the platform to you all and to send in your Requests and like I said you you're sitting there. You must be thinking I would love to come at least if you can't make it here In Karbala send in your messages It is gonna I'm I am your mouthpiece We are your mouth the channel is your mouthpiece to be able to deliver your messages to my Hussein a salam and a bit for the Abbas so carrying on from yesterday's the yesterday's comments and and The supplications and the du'as I'll go through a number of different messages from our dear respective viewers So we'll start with Roksana Hashem who says Shaker Brahim says please convey salams to our master Abba Abdullah Hussein and his commander-in-chief Abel Fazl Abbas Do us for all Mu'mineen first and request to call his servant from Switzerland With his family and all the Mu'mineen who desired to make his Ziyara JazakAllah and Shukran to Imam Hussein Oh, he actually says JazakAllah and thanks to Imam Hussein TV for this special program to give us this opportunity to make du'as du'as for all of the Marib Shaker Brahim from Switzerland, but that was absolute coincidence I didn't know that this message is gonna be here But this is exactly the reason why I'm giving you the platform or we are giving the platform to be able to convey your Messages for this main reason. He is literally saying thank you to the channel For the special program to give them the opportunity to make du'as Huma Nazarian says salams. Please don't forget us in your prayers Shana Maumin says if you could please pray for my mother other Abbas says Altama says surah Fatiha for my father, late Sayyid, Mihaar Akhtar Zaydi, son of late Sayyid Muhammad Sattain Zaydi and Shohadat the martyrs of the Jafariya all over the world Health prayers for my mother and all Mu'mineen and Mu'minat who are ill Salam bro. You are very inspiring. I love what you do. So that was a minhal Jaafar Jamila Mu'rua says salam Ya Abba Abdullah Please fulfill my hijat and provide a home for my family so we don't become homeless More messages coming through If I can just This was yesterday. Yep. So there's more messages coming through. Oh, I've just lost page But anyway, I think we can go to a small break and then I can get these messages back on And then we'll hopefully have some recitations and some poetry as well. So hopefully we'll see you after the break Oh Welcome back dear viewers of Imam Hussein TV 3 coming to you live from the holy city of Karbala you are watching light our nights Badia light our nights Exclusive live on Imam Hussein TV with myself and my co-host Ahmed Ali There are many visitors from for Visitors of Abba Abdullah el Hussein and these visitors they come in different shapes and sizes in different forms as well His eminence say it Sadaqa Shirazi He writes in his shahreh his explanation of duaq Makram al-Akhlaq by Mama Sajad and there was a certain part where it mentions what it means to be a wellie and the different connotations of being a wellie and Because there's something which I've noticed personally and a lot of people have noticed and people's relationships with each other When it comes to actually visiting Imam Hussein aslam during the month of Arba'een or during the month of Safar and during the time of Arba'een and and especially in Muharram the visitors are of Different forms and different cultures and different backgrounds when they do come and I I underestimate the numbers here are Amazing there are so many people crammed. It's such a small place that inevitably people their tent the tensions may rise in terms of How they react with one another but generally speaking generally speaking the visitors in their Interactions with each other is always peaceful always friendly because they understand that you know It could be squashed at times and there's sometimes not playing in places to move And it's very difficult to maneuver your maneuver from one area to the other So sometimes you do get different altercations where people are impatient in terms of trying to reach a certain destination Because it's difficult to get around so in his in Sayyed Sarghi Shirazi in his Explanation of Do'a Makana Maqlaka There is a certain part where it mentions Weli and the different connotations of Weli so he says that There are different social levels in the first social level you have what's called a sahib a Rafiq or a Zameel So a sahib is someone essentially who is an acquaintance A Zameel is someone who you work with or you have certain interactions with maybe business interactions or Or a colleague for example, and you have a Rafiq who's again along the lines of An acquaintance or someone that you may know That's the first social level and they have their own They have their own Ways of interacting with each other the second social level and he mentions actually before that he mentions a story And he says is it so that a brother can come to another another brother or a friend and put his hand into his bag and the and that person has has any I say has has any Objections towards it so if if if I was to come to a friend of mine and I was to put let's just say he had a bag of money or a bag of Personal belongings and I was to put my hand into that belongings. Will that person have any objections or no? Say Sarah says if he does have Objections then this person is only on the first level of social interaction Only on the first level. He's an acquaintance or a colleague or even a companion however, if he is your friend and truly your friend then He becomes part of the second level of interaction and that second level of social interaction is literally called a friend a Sadiq and this is this is where most of the visitors of Ababa Abdul Hussain really fall into and and then he says the third level is What's really called a wali because a wali is not just a friend But a person who has a heart of hope who who reveals his love Who reveals his peaceful nature towards another person? reciprocally Achieving that love as well. That is the third level of social interaction upon which the the sharaf of of the wali part comes and this is what we try to aspire to when we bring it back to Mahusaih assalam what we try to aspire to as the visitors of Mahusaih assalam is to become a wali to one another and The wali to one another is to not only show your love and not only to show you but receiving that love as well And using that example if I was to be able to put my hand into the bag of a person belonging of another friend Will he have any objections? Because I have total trust in that person the person who's who's infringing. Let's just say all my person belongs I have so much trust in him. That's the kind of level of social interaction which we aspire to achieve and That's especially when it comes to the visit of Mahusaih assalam That's the type of level that we have reached not just a sadiqsa an acquaintance or not just a Rafiq who I've just joined in a travel With or not just a colleague or a companion, but we are achieving or we are aspiring to be wali's of another Yes, wali's of another is what we aspiring to be and that's just a short insight into his eminence asada Shirazi's Explanation of Dua Makarum al-Akhlaq. We'll have many more insights inshallah in the upcoming nights And hopefully now for the next part I will take a short break and when we come back We'll have some recitations to hopefully liven up your nights and bring light into your homes and light my nights Or light our nights as the program is called. So I'll see you after the break I'd like to say that the group of Imam Hussein channel which represented between few years ago and they Approved that the Islamic Issues and the Islamic And the Muslims are here and I hope that the group of Imam Hussein channels Will make variety of some topics and some series maybe Take some kids and make some series which belong to the daily issues like the Daily problems of Islamic laws, for example the daily issues that face a follower According to Salah for example if the Follower he has a doubt between the first ruka and the second ruka. What shall he we do in such case if they do it as series or as One show that will be acceptable acceptable from other people and nowadays We found that The Wahhab is him. I'm sorry to say that but the Wahhab is him They separate and they give to others bad View or bad Things about Islam while Islam has good things everything is good in Islam But and luckily the people who are speaking in English Represent the Shia people they are so little and they don't have that big opportunity To talk with others. So Through your channel, I hope that you will make variety of programs and these programs In Sha Allah will separate the Sects of Ahlul Bayt alayhim Abdullah salatu wa salam in all the words That's all my mission because you know that the European people at doom is they they will debate They will make they will make a debate They will said that you know English, but you didn't transfer Imam Sadik's Quartz Imam Sadik knowledge to us. So they have what they have hoodge against us So, please what I'm asking all the responsible guys from Imam Hussein channels is to support such Programs and to make variety and to create in you people like young people who can present Programs in English. That's all what I have and thank you very much to give me this opportunity to talk in this channel Thank you very much. Mama Hussein TV.
