So your anti gay,anti religious freedom, no to freedom of speech,you see women as not as equal as men,when you could have stayed a Christian prayed to God and been tolerant and peaceful to all people well done😊
@@Dayda-7 no one said we promote anti religion or freedom of speech. we also give women their dignity instead of teaching them to be "toilets" of the societies men, if i put it quite frankly. we promote equity, which is fairness between men and women which in many peoples opinion is much better than equality. for instance, maternity and paternity leave for male/female teachers. so im extremely sorry that as a muslim, i have morals that have been outlined and made clear by God. May God guide us all.
@user-zf8um2lm5e free speech salman rushdie,charlie hebdo,and death threats to many others,Society of men..kidnapping girls taking them to Pakistan for forced marriage some been killed,fairness for women only if they agree and then the THE HONOUR KILLINGS,the word of GOD yes ,the tribal laws and laws of men, NO,Christians have also suffered badly from the laws of men, witch hunts and inquisition, but that was hundreds of years ago, even the Saudi prince has seen this and it changing thinks,Iranians turn to Christianity, please reply with your views
I have never seen a revert trying so hard to spread love and the message of Islam publicly.. may Allah reward you both abundantly.. Hope to see you someday
Really? Though I certainly appreciate these brothers' efforts, have you never seen anything by Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad or Shaykh Hamza Yusuf? They are reverts who have established whole institutions to do what you are describing.
Alhumdulillah, this story mirrors the experience of many communities in the UK, where people from South Asia arrived in the 1950s-1970s and began to establish places of prayer. In the early days, we could only hold Jummah prayers on Fridays in the basement of a butcher’s shop. For Eid, we would hire community centers, and Quran lessons took place in a store basement, shared with a sewing factory. A few uncles took the initiative, gathering funds from the small Muslim community. They gave us donation pots to keep at home and encouraged our families and friends to contribute. Every Sunday, they would go door to door with the uncles, collecting donations. Alhumdulillah, through their efforts, we now have a masjid that can accommodate up to 1,500 attendees. What an incredible achievement by those courageous men-may Allah reward them all. It’s heartbreaking that their efforts weren’t documented or photographed; they acted solely for the sake of Allah, and that’s truly beautiful. Baitul Aziz Masjid - London SE1
Thank you gentlemen for coming to the Robin Hood City. He was a great Faqir and had a friend called Abdul!😊 I used to go to the first mosque on Robin Hood Street. It was a blessed place with a blessed Imam. The Imam’s nephew(R) used to collect money for the mosque every Sunday which was his day off from work. He was a natural social worker and my father always received him with a smile and always placed a quid in his bag!😀 May Allah bless all the members of the first generation that facilitated the mosques in 🇬🇧! ❤️🤲🏻🌹
Lovely to see how similar the story is in so many cities and towns of the UK. I have so many memories of carrying charity buckets door to door and through the town centre and up and down different mosques to fundraise for a mosque in my local area as child.
May Allah S.W.T grant Bahtti saab janat ul firdus and all the elders that are no longer with us. As the history goes they gathered the community and elders to go raise the donations.They visited city afetr city to build this beautiful masjid.
Of course but if youre a muslim that immigrate to Britain, you have to integrate there. You have to accept the culture. The problem with a lot of Muslims in Britain is that they want to Islamifiy it, Ive seen videos of Muslims protesting for the UK to have sharia law. Its not fair to the native that live there. Britian has always been a Christian nation.
@@Mylris Its not a Christian nation now lol stop the lies man, its secular and MOST people are not Christian, most are agnostic or atheists. I can kind of agree with the rest, just not the same tired its a Christian nation lie.
If there is a sister and brother planning to visit Indonesia, just come to Bandung, the city where I live. I'd be happy to meet you and put you up for days or even weeks for free. Salaam from Indonesia.
Very happy to come across such a great content, I am muslim and live in Bursa, Türkiye. Please come visit our beautiful mosques here too. Will be more than happy to be your tour guide. Xoxo Good work lads

mashaAllah , beautiful brothers. love the banter. We need a muslim travel show with these guys. mashaAllah the energy is crazy. The production set up might be humble but the on screen presence can give any netflix, bbc a run for their money.
Absolutely amazing video Allahuma Barik saw my Dad watching this on TV & had to see properly for myself! Such an amazing video & so strange to see you film in the areas i’m so familiar with talking of islam! Alhamdulillah & may Allah ﷻ bless you both 💪
Great videos. May Allah bless you for your courage in trying to spread awareness of Islam and combatting Islamophobia. Please do visit other cities and please do a video on your conversion stories. JazakhAllah khair
Hello brothers, First of all congratulations brothers for being a Muslim and you are telling viewers in very lighter mood about Islam and Muslims. May Allah give you peace and tranquility to you both ❤❤
Assalamu alaikum Dear brother in Islam, hope both of you are well You are definitely doing a wonderful work for our fellow human beings May Allah SWT Bless you both and Grant all your Good wishes too Best wishes to you both
I've been told stores about my great uncle coming to Nottingham from India during the partition. He apparently formed one of the first "mosques" in the city - which was actually just a house, but the immigrants who settled could worship there. He served in the British Royal Navy and raised 9 children including my uncle. I've sadly only met a few of them. I was told that when he died he was such a pillar of the community that the turnout for his funeral was huge - and included other communities, like the local Jamaicans, who came to pay their respects.
This is unrelated to the topic, but what I love about you guys is that everything about you feels like you are "British gentlemen". This might sound odd, but there has been a trend in recent years of people converting to Islam and thinking they need to change their names to Arabic names and only wear Middle Eastern clothing because they believe looking Arab makes them 'more Muslim,' which is completely untrue. Don't get me wrong, Arabic names and middle eastern culture is amazing, but being Muslim doesn’t mean you have to reject your local culture and traditions. No matter our backgrounds, appearances, or languages, we are all equal in the eyes of God. This is the essence of Islam, and it’s what makes the Muslim community have the strongest brotherhood in the world. ✊🏻
MashaAllah. Loved it. Some black and white pictures of Muslims from that time would have been wonderful. Include one hadith with translation in each of your videos would be great to Educate People ❤❤❤
Asc my dear brothers I have tears on my eyes watching this video may Allah protect you keep going your doing an amazing job جزاك الله خيرا وبارك الله فيكم.
But unfortunately so far it has created most of the problems. It needs to clean up its act ,for many to really accept it. The minority spoil it for the many. The majority of Muslims could start by condemning those who bring your religion into disrepute.
@user-qg3ll4qi9q you can continue with what you are saying ,,,,no offence at all 😅 who cares ....LOVE YOU ISLAM 😘MUAAH ...no matter if media calls you terr%%%orist religion....
Syurkur alhamdulilah…. Finally something refreshing… a pretty new product to me or A pretty new concept to me…..it’s like what if Islam was the majority religion in Great Britain. It would look just like this. I’m a Muslim I’m not saying Islam is the right religion or not. Because if I say Well done u guys finally see that Islam is the right religion….it is a conflicting thing to say it create division & war to say if Islam the right religion. I’m a Muslim myself I won’t promote conflict … I want to promote respect & peace to practice any religion anybody wants to practice.What u guys are clearly doing. Is nothing but “Respect “ . Respect in every way , in every breath. Eat , sleep & shits of respect. Maybe u guys even take “ respect “ as supplements . To me the experience u share is about respect nothing but respect. I know u are talking about integrating into Islam but the message I get is more of respect . I think we got to learn respect 1st in life . It’s like u got to learn to crawl b4 u walk. U got to learn to be humble b4 bring strong .When u have respect you will have an open minded perspective , mindfulness & responsibility. Well done , …. U distinguished gentleman doing it with great style … but I know is u guys got to go Through a lot of pain to to get here .
Being muslim it's didn't mean that you change your tradition, and you are the best example, maasyaallah
Thank you for your support
Absolutely. Well done!
alhamdulillah i am a muslim revert in nottingham

A Christian/agnostic nation, perhaps, but a secular state. No religion should not be allowed to manipulate the state.
They are just a minority like lgbtq want to push their law on to kids through the school system @@Mylris
I really like how Ben uses the words Alhamdulillah, In Shaa Allah and Masha Allah frequently! Alhamdulillah!
It's very heartwarming . Proud of you guys for displaying the right image of Islam. Thank you

Ahead of the curve. The 3 brothers remind me of how the first European Muslim minorities must have prayed e.g. Bogomil Bosniaks ma sha Allah.
