What a fantastic ambassador for England Davo is. First class coverage and a really true insight into a country most people in England haven’t a clue about. Our media in the UK is an embarrassment and biased bullshit machine . Nice one Dave 🏴
Does that include the ‘values’ of female guardianship and the brutal torture and imprisonment of gay people? Basing bigotry and brutality on religious doctrine does not justify this behaviour
@@LeeMichaelWalton all while the societies in the West are in gutters - alcoholism, lgbt, gambling, adultery, single parents, rape, murder, stealing, child behavioural issues, no respect for parents ...... Alhamdulillah for Islam.
I am from Yemen (not as wealthy as Qatar) but our hospitality is equally good as the rest of the Arab countries. This is simply because of the teaching of the Quran . Love ❤️ and respect from Yemen 🇾🇪 And thank you brother Davo and have a safe return flight back home.
@@jamalakinade8175 Well in my opinion people are fed up and really want to be left alone. The Northerns don’t trust the Saudis and the southerners don’t like Iran’s involvements. This war is proxy war fought on our land and my people are dying
As a European white muslim revert I can tell you that you make my heart sing when you say nice things about a muslim country, it is so needed these days.
It's very hard to live as a Muslim revert in Europe specially in a era where people h@te our religion for no reason. May Almighty ALLAH SWT bless us all
Davo thank you mate for everything you have done, you've been a great ambassador for our Country, no BBC/CNN news for me ever again, you have opened so many minds, much respect to you.

Thank you for doing this. It needed to be said. Never believe the rubbish in the media. They have no morals they just love the money they make from the mischief making. Enjoy the rest of your stay Davo. Get home safe.
Don’t rely 100% on media...if you want truth...step out from your comfort zone, travel and experience yourself. That is the best way how to learn. Nobody is perfect, we need each other to learn and to grow. Enough with the hate the media fed us, enough with the divided thing they have made.
I am a Qatari woman and I really appreciate you speaking the truth about my country through experiencing it. I am glad that you have enjoyed your time here, hope to see you visiting Qatar again soon.
I'm from England and I actually feel really upset with the media coverage. They've said some things that are outright untrue. Highlighting issues should not mean completely ignoring and refusing to show ANY positive stories. That is beyond being biased, it's just being unfair.
We should respond to the media cr!m!nals in their own language? But thanks to social media these days, these criminals will certainly lose one day, insha allah!
This video deserves an award! I'm a Muslim revert from the UK and this review of Qatar is bang-on, having myself lived and experienced life in the Middle East. I couldn't have said it better!!
I'm gutted England is out as well. I am an Egyptian student in London and as an arab I am for sure rooting for Morocco but also wanted EN to advance. Most of your team are amazing lads that are still young and still got plenty to offer .
We should have more guys like this reporting the truth about every Country not the big media types World would be a better place for everyone.. I've worked with quite a few Muslim in the care sector and recently a female Muslim, very polite and respectful, she asked me where can i go and pray, I said hold on let me clear some space in the office and you can use that, she couldn't thank me enough.. Respect goes a long way..
14 years I called Qatar home and loved it. Never felt so safe. And happy to be returning next year. Felt very proud to see the World Cup an amazing success.
This actually made me cry 😢. I'm an Arab "immigrant" in Europe. After seeing this and hearing your experience with the hospitality of the people there and the Trust between people, and then the contrast of our situation in the west (not feeling safe etc). I just realized how much I miss the Arab/Muslim countries. The individualism we have in the west can be really hard te bear, especially if you were used to life in Arab/Muslim countries. Thank you Davo for your coverage, glad to hear you enjoyed it 😊
I am in the US currently and I can relate. but luckily I'm not planning to stay here. I was excited to come here, but now, I can't wait to go home, Saudi.
@@freetruthbase2492 Valid point. Davo should have taken a moment to talk to the Bangladeshi, Philippine, Indian, Nepalese, and Pakistani immigrant laborers who have built Qatar from the ground up over the past 40 years and made to live in crowded squalid conditions whilst existing on meager salaries. It is nothing less than brutal CAPITALISM at its best, exploiting vulnerable people to promote a facade of opulence.
You shattered my stereotype of English football fans, honestly I feel ashamed. I live right by Birmingham city football stadium and I’ve always felt uncomfortable when I walk past when a game is on. Now seeing you in that part of the world being a beautiful human has really made me check myself. Thank you
Thanks from a British Expat living in Qatar for the last 6 years for telling the truth and showing the true beauty of Qatar. I hope you come back soon to enjoy more of the amazing hospitality.
@@etai993 Its true bro,they are abusive to the workers in there,they can't get enough food but they work hard everyday,quatari people has politeness towards westerns bro,they're clever af
Davo, Well done. I have been here, working for 40 days, and have had the most amazing experience. The locals are the most amazing people and have been incredibly welcoming. I am disappointed in our media, again!! Have a great trip home. We are back on the 23rd.
If its so good why don't all the Muslim refugees who are fleeing there countries go live in these beautiful Muslim countries instead of been oppressed in the western countries
Fair Play Davo!!! I am a half Brit, half Italian who's parents met here in Qatar and stayed here for over 20 years, 14 of which i was alive. I grew up here in Qatar and went back to the UK in 1990 and have returned 2 years ago with my wife and daughter. Listening to you talk about the merits of this country is fantastic, you could have taken the words out of my mouth. I am constantly harping on about what a great place it is to live, work and grow up. If you ever get back here give me a shout, you are welcome at my place any time.
Our sense of hospitality is very important to us as Muslims. Thank you for your effort in showing the best side of us, a side the BBC did not want to show out of spite. Its not lost on us when someone is sincere.
When I first went to the middle east as a kid, I remember my uncles front door was jammed open. Hadn't been closed for decades. No one ever worried about intruders.
I’m an African American Muslim I just performed Umrah in August and I love the Middle East and the culture. I m always thinking about leaving America and moving to an Islamic country! I thank Allah to bringing me to Islam! I love this deen
I was out in Qatar and Dubai for world cup and so glad you showed the reality. I met so many happy people that live there and they tried to help me in anyway possible. It's something we cannot comprehend in the western world .
Hey Davo I'm from the UK and like yourself was totally blinded by the Western Media. I've loved ya videos mate and hope you'll go back to Qatar and other Eastern countries. I've totally added Qatar to my bucket list. Mate, you should totally expand your remit and go travel this side of the world with sport/football in mind. The way you mingle with different nationalities, is second to none. You're an absolute gentleman and a respectful one, so these vlogs would work a treat and sure addictive to watch. Thanks once again for showing how football and people come together!
Thanks for the kind words mate! I will definitely aim to be back to the Middle East. Nothing beats meeting new people and getting to know new cultures and places ❤️
⚖⚖ . The Last Sermon of prophet Muhammad delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul Hijjah 10 A.H (c. 630 AD) . 📖📖 . . The Prophet, peace be upon him, delivered a comprehensive sermon in the farewell pilgrimage. The sermon included basic principles of humanity in a very simple language. No wonder that he delivered such a sermon as he was gifted with a very eloquent style of speech. The sermon contained many facts that are necessary to guide the heedless world of today and give them happiness. . One of the principles that the Prophet, peace be upon him, indicated in the Farewell sermon is equality among human beings in all situations and at all levels. . The Prophet, peace be upon him said: "O' people, your Lord is one, and your father is one. There is no virtue for an Arab over a non-Arab, nor for a non-Arab over an Arab, and neither for a red-skin [person] over a black-skin [person], nor for a black-skin [person] over a red-skin [person], except by righteousness. Have I delivered the message?" They said: "The Prophet, peace be upon him, has delivered the message." And he said: “Let the one who listened to this speech convey it to those who are absent!”) . People are equal; there are no differences among the colored, the white, the black, the rich, the poor, the powerful, the weak, the handsome and the ugly, etc. The most honorable among people are those who are more pious. . This is the first principle of human rights; all human beings are equal regardless of their gender, sect, color, culture, age, position, power or physical appearance. If man does not believe in Allah the Almighty and in His Promise and Menace, and if he does not believe that Allah knows everything done in secret or in public, he will be selfish, and so he will achieve his own goals regardless of anything else, build his glory on the wreck of other people, collect his wealth on impoverishing others, build his honor on humiliating others, and save his life by killing others. That is why the prophet peace be upon him said in the Farewell sermon: . (…The Prophet peace be upon him, said: "Verily Allah has declared your blood and your money inviolable as the sanctity of this [sacred] day in this [sacred] month in this [sacred] town till you meet your Lord. Have I delivered the message?" They said: "Yes." The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "May Allah be my Witness. Let those who are present inform those who are absent."
There is minority ignorant in the west whom the BBC/CNN/FOX fooling around throughout, that's how they survive in the media limelight. I had lived with family my forty years in Muslim Arab country and brought up my kids there. It was so lovely and wonderful. Kids also enjoyed and grown there youth in that calm atmosphere. Still dreaming of those gone days. Even the situations in my motherland is worse nowaday.
It gave me goosebumps at the end. Davo is soo right and as a Muslim I can't tell you the therapeutic relief most Muslims receive from videos like your World Cup series. People have been experiencing real mass trauma from the consistent and somewhat relentless pressure of the western media. The idea of being painted as evil and backwards in your society and in general across the world weighs heavily on a person and community, especially over a prolonged period. These videos seem to soothe that and mean so much to so many. The whole thing has been amazing viewing and it's been great to see how it allowed people from all walks of life to experience the best of Middle Eastern and Muslim culture, something quite frankly not easily done by people of many nationalities. Many people came from South America but also the Far East. Joined by the open minded Europeans, Yanks and Aussies. A great world Cup and somewhat therapeutic for so many. So sad England are out but can't wait to see how the other lions do. Viva Morocco!!
Mass trauma from constant pressure for prolonged time! Brought tears to my eyes! It is very difficult to grow up fighting for years to just be fairly understood and accepted for who you are. Is it fair to live your whole life justifying yourself against the western media?!
I'm gutted that England are out but your videos were great Davo. I've visited Doha many times as 2-day stopovers to get to mainly SE Asia, other Arab countries, or Maldives or Seychelles. You have been very open about this but it is fair to say that it works both ways - many people from England are not racist bigots and idiotic drunken hooligans - many are very civilised and polite people and I will say that as a fellow Brit from a Pakistani Muslim background born and bred in the UK. Honestly, your videos were truly a breath of fresh air. Now let us think about 2026!! Surely it will be coming home one day, mate!
Well said mate. All the travelling England fans I know are respectful and eager to learn about new places and cultures. Sadly the media does the same thing with us - using poisonous coverage to paint us as stereotypical xenophobic hooligans, because it sells. Thanks for watching and thanks for rejecting that narrative 🤝🏴
@@DavoBirmingham2 I know Davo mate. Media do portray English fans as xenophobic hooligans but the reality is that (as you rightly pointed out), that many English fans are definitely respectful and eager to learn about different cultures and places - you are speaking facts here. From a fellow Midlander (Nottingham - but lived in Birmingham for a year). EDIT: It is bloody cold here!!!

I've been watching your videos in Qatar, love them. Thank you for visiting this part of the world and just being honest. The mainstream media and their governments will not portray the reality, and will create divisions to suit their own agenda, I hope you find peace. ♥️

I'm a Canadian .. have lived in Qatar 20yrs .. and still living here .. i have learned just to ignore the common consensus of most large media platforms. I enjoy living here .. its the safest place i have ever been or lived in the entire world .. I have never locked my home, or my car. I can and do commonly leave the keys in my ignition while going shopping or out and about .. the people are nice and the atmosphere is international with people from all over the world. its extremely modern society, i generally want for nothing while living here, i can get just about everything. The added perk for those living and working here ... its a TAX FREE society .. no income taxes and no sales taxes to the normal consumer, which makes a huge difference in a person's disposable income. again.. I'm from Canada, I've been here for 20yrs and dont see myself leaving anytime soon. its a good place to live and work.
No matter what politicians and media say...a country is about its people. I think your open mind does justice that opened the truth of Qatars true culture and society...how warm, kind and friendly they are. Even though Qatar is a wealthy country, they showed hospitality to the fullest since its their honour and pride to receive the opportunity to welcome so many guests of the fifa world cup. U should come to Qatar and other muslims countries more often....u will receive a lot of new fans and subscribers. Wish i the best and i hope u will enjoy your remaining moments in Qatar. Many greetings from 🇱🇺

You don’t how refreshing it is to hear someone called Dave from England sharing this on this platform. I spend almost 2 years in the Middle East as a UK expat and been drumming your messages to people in the Uk but they make out that it’s easy for me to say these things as I’m a Muslim of south Asian heritage & I’m culturally closer to the Arabs. Really enjoyed your dairies & thank you.
I had a great time discussing about Qatar and our cultural values with you. Looking forward to having you back in Qatar. Keep doing the good work that you are doing. All the best :)
I'm a British expat who has lived in Bahrain for 20 years. The people in this region are incredibly warm and hospitable. Great to see you challenging the negative bias of the media.
Finally someone is being fair to an Arabic country,thank you for doing this and I guarantee you that you will find this warm hospitality in all our Arabic world. Welcome again and hope to see you soon in my country Morocco ❤️
to be fair he's not the only vloger who "finally was being fair to Qatar", i've seen a ton of independent vlogers who had more or less similar experience as Davo, who came to Qatar not so confident, and got the shock of their lives when most things they've heard their media tell them, turned out to be exaggerations at best, and total lies at worse.
Thank you brother for sharing this side of the Arab world. I cannot imagine how they must feel to know that the world sees them as ignorant and intolerant and hateful. Yet here they are, responding to all that by handing out chocolates with a smile and inviting strangers to their homes to share a good meal.
Thank you Davo from a Muslim Arab Brummie for showing it as it is. Much appreciated. Good to know there are open minded people who will speak the truth. Means a lot for me to see my ethnic region being portrayed in a positive light. Hospitality towards the guest is part of our faith as instructed by Prophet Muhammad pbuh. God bless you.
Muslim Arabs considering non Arab weatish black Muslims children of the lesser god , the pathetic situation of migrant workers .. why don't you guys oppress them why
@@user-je5rg7es8l Who says it's about Islam it's about gulf people who are part and benefactor of the oppressive project. The criticism of Europe isn't all about LGBT it's also about humiliating and non human conditions of migrant workers
@@maaz87 no one claimed they’re perfect. No one had a problem with China hosting and airing the Olympics whilst knowing the atrocities happening with the Uyghurs to this day but when it’s a Muslim nation that stood up for it’s values many people have a problem with it. Don’t forget Qatar stands with Palestine which has been in more for more than 60 years and as we speak.
As someone who grew up in London and have lived in Doha for the past 6 years, I never felt so safe as female. Like you said no country is perfect but this country is way better than most I have lived or visited!

People with big & generous hearts invariably recognise similarities in other people. There's no doubt they have seen that in you Davo. Great honest & down to earth reporting. 👍
“This place is not perfect - no place ever will be” “Forward thinking” Thanks for the compliment… First best video about Qatar from a British guy who challenges Media stereotype
Hello Davo, I came to know your channel during the World Cup. I think your channel is worth to be one of the most popular channels on TH-cam. Your strength is how open minded you are, and how you like to see things from different perspectives. I think you could make a travel channel, and I am sure you will reach millions of subscribers in short time.
Thanks for the kind words. I’m not usually one to put myself on the camera in my videos but I felt this tournament required it. The vlogging has been really enjoyable for me so I would love to do more of it in the future and will definitely be back to this special part of the world ❤️
@@DavoBirmingham2 I love traveling my self. It so happened that I am in the UK right now, but I travelled to about 24 countries and I have learned something form each country that I had been. One day in another country and culture is worth reading a book about that country - the sites the sounds, the people, the atmosphere. Most important of all you will learn to look things from different perspectives and understand why people do what they do, without judging them. I wish you all the best for all your future plans.
I have heaped praise over your videos but today i wanted to give a shout-out to the English fans in general. As a Frenchman, im obviously happy we beat you, but i have to say, the English fans that came to Qatar were a credit to their country. No hooligans, no fights or brawls - just a massive celebration of football at its best and a top respect of Qatari hospitality. Big up to you and to England.
Those sorts of fans come for alcohol first football second I feel, so it was honestly pretty nice not to have those around, although of course most people can handle their drinks decently.
THANK YOU Davo. I am a muslim woman and I have NEVER been oppressed by any man in my family or community. Sad that I feel the need to say it - but THANK YOU for traveling to Qatar with an open mind and highlighting the positive. No country is perfect, but we are indeed tired of the bias rubbish narrated by mainstream western media. Go well and may your channel grow from strength to strength
Just back yesterday from 3 fantastic weeks in Qatar and I have to say exactly the same a Davo, great place and great people, loved every single minute of our stay
We can't never be perfect but respecting our differences is what makes us united. Thank you for being honest & hopefully it doesn't end here...have a safe journey & bless you 🙏
I’m an American, I’ve lived outside the US for a couple of years. I’m in the states now but I want to return to being an expat. I’ve stopped watching the news media outlets here in the states a long time ago. And thank goodness for the internet, for social media because it’s given me a whole different perspective on Qatar and the region as a whole. I now want to spend time in that region to understand it more. What we learn in school can very well be just biases and indoctrination of what your country, particularly from a western culture perspective, about what the world is like. But the truth is that there’s no better education than going to a particular country and talking to the people there. I want to travel and live in different parts of the world to get a different perspective on life.
Thank you Davo! Too bad to see you leaving Qatar. You are an honest and transparent man. Respect and appreciation is our common language. Let's use it more and more!
Absolutely loved watching your world cup diaries. Plenty of afterthought regarding the media and the way they try to feed us rubbish Thanks Davo Marching on Together Leeds
We the people of Pakistan also thank you for showing positive aspects of Qatar. From Pakistan, I never been to Qatar in my life but I love 💕💕💕 Qatar and Qatari people

Thank you for honest and open minded portrait of the Arab world. The Muslim ummah wants to build bridges ,with the rest of the world. Football is a universal game that can start by doing this. As a British Pakistani born in the UK.I appreciate your comments about the Quran, yes you right there are difference in culture but we are all one race.We should all be united ,not divided by the media and politics .You got your self a follower of your channel. Keep up the good work.Yes its a shame England lost,but In sha Allah one day its coming home.
This is such an underrated channel. I am so glad that this came as a recommendation. I have watched every vlog the past month. It's such a beautiful and transparent content. I am hoping this content reaches millions around the world and Davo being recognised as a brand ambassador to bring peace and unity in so many lives. Thank you Davo from the bottom of my heart. Regards, Philip Dubai. PS: Come to Dubai and I can gurantee your channel will reach millions of viewers
Imagine this World Cup Happened 20 years ago, no social media, we will fully accept what BBC & CNN preached to us. Those who went to the tournament, their story will never be told Power of Social media Well done Davo
love you Davo, such a good man, you are such a good Ambassador for many decent English people, you are a credit to England, lots of love, keep telling the truth. we going to miss you around the streets of Doha.🥰
Davo, i don't know why i am in tears listening to all your remarks. Maybe because you are sincere and honest to convey the truth to alla people all over the wolrd. Love from Indonesia.
Thank you for your positive feedback, honest opinion about Qatar. I’m Fijian Indian living in Canada. Im now very interested and definitely want to go and visit Qatar Insha Allah one day. So good to know from you guys especially listening from Europe & west who are visiting there themselves and exploring the place on their own. ❤️👍🏻💯✔️😊
Thanks Davo. This is very refreshing. Muslims always get a bad rap. It was nice to see a non-muslim being open minded and displaying muslim values and culture to the world - appreciate it. Great stuff! All the best with your future endeavours.
Complete respect for your openness and inquisitive nature. The rule of thumb is to see which other countries that have been mis-portrayed. I have seen youtube travel loggers going to these countries and been blown away by their experiences and learning that the people are truly not representative of how the news has vilified them. I saw some Engish/American/German youtubers in Pakistan, they loved the hospitality and saw that the people were really trying to prove themselves. These countries are gems that a lot of people will not see or have experiences like you and are desperate to have an opportunity to showcase their hospitality. We should have won yesterday, we were the better team, never played so well!
Wow..A genuine Englishman talking facts and supporting a country and not talking negative about the country..I'm Born and bred in the UK and have relatives working in Qatar and absolutely love the country and I'm so glad the world cup was held in Qatar and people are seeing how the media always is trying to tarnish the middle Eastern and Muslim Majority countries
Thank you for not listening to BBC and New York Times. He said it very clearly. He also said " I'll come back". Thank you for saying the right things about Qatar.
I'm a Saudi woman postgraduate student in England, and I see and recognise daily how people here look at me, how they have negative and fabricated ideas about the Arab world, and why they keep asking, many times after graduation, why I'm going back to Saudi Arabia. And it saddens me so much that in this era of globalisation and widespread social media when everyone has access to the means and opportunities to learn the truth about others, so many people continue to believe what they see in the media. And I'm tired of clarifying to them that, despite our flaws, I feel much more secure and happy in my country than in the U.K. So many thanks to you, and you’re welcome anytime in Qatar or Saudi Arabia 🤍
Thank you so much for telling the truth about Qatar. Know that you will always have a second home here, you are welcome whenever you want and we will be happy to see you back in Qatar 🙏🏼
Media bias is terrible and it's actually refreshing to see someone like you showing the reality of the situation. There's no perfect place on earth but never judge a country or a people you haven't personally been to or met. Thank you good Sir.
Our differences define us, that's what makes us all unique. Just like you are from the Western media. Our differences are also what makes this world more interesting to live in. Thanks for being different.
You are a top human being brother. Your humanity shines through. Watched all your videos and it has been such a huge relief to see so many visitors who have not listened to the BBC propaganda. Can't thank you enough. Have a safe journey. Peace and blessings to you bro. Respects
Thank you very much 😊 you have been so amazing during your journey in Qatar 🇶🇦 Hopefully you can come back again. I am glad that you are telling the truth, and we love you ❤
Respect to you for being genuine Sir. The best advise is never believe the Media agendas, never let them do the thinking for you, check everything for yourselves.
Fellow Brummie here who lives in the UAE now. Dude you will not want to go back to Brum! There is something about the middle East that pulls you in. Of course I love Brum but sadly it's not safe anymore.
Us uk muslims had to endure a lot too. Felt like I had to mind my business whilst my coworkers/managers were giving ignorant takes on qatar/muslim countries and Islam in general just to keep my job. And all the stuff from the news and social media, it gets very draining. Big yourself up Davo, loved the series. If only there was more sincerity among us.. thank you!
Thank you so much Davo, I really appreciate you covering and giving an honest opinion. You have been very great and your welcome with one arms your visit us again. This is your second home and all of our homes and open to welcome you 🧡
We would like to thank you very much for your feelings and sincerity in conveying the truth, and you are welcome at any time among your brothers as if you were in your own country. Good luck to England in the upcoming championships. 🙌
Wow, you are such a good human being, When you have an open mind & are able to respect others despite differences, then you have really cracked it as a civilised being.

This is not just in Qatar . All Muslim country’s are like this . Safe and offer amazing hospitality
14 years I called Qatar home and loved it. Never felt so safe. And happy to be returning next year. Felt very proud to see the World Cup an amazing success.
This actually made me cry 😢. I'm an Arab "immigrant" in Europe. After seeing this and hearing your experience with the hospitality of the people there and the Trust between people, and then the contrast of our situation in the west (not feeling safe etc). I just realized how much I miss the Arab/Muslim countries. The individualism we have in the west can be really hard te bear, especially if you were used to life in Arab/Muslim countries. Thank you Davo for your coverage, glad to hear you enjoyed it 😊
I am in the US currently and I can relate. but luckily I'm not planning to stay here. I was excited to come here, but now, I can't wait to go home, Saudi.
There r lot of videos, where poor hapless labourers were beaten by their Qatari employers.... hospitality is only for the rich

Davo should have taken a moment to talk to the Bangladeshi, Philippine, Indian, Nepalese, and Pakistani immigrant laborers who have built Qatar from the ground up over the past 40 years and made to live in crowded squalid conditions whilst existing on meager salaries. It is nothing less than brutal CAPITALISM at its best, exploiting vulnerable people to promote a facade of opulence.
You shattered my stereotype of English football fans, honestly I feel ashamed. I live right by Birmingham city football stadium and I’ve always felt uncomfortable when I walk past when a game is on. Now seeing you in that part of the world being a beautiful human has really made me check myself. Thank you

I grew up here in Qatar and went back to the UK in 1990 and have returned 2 years ago with my wife and daughter. Listening to you talk about the merits of this country is fantastic, you could have taken the words out of my mouth. I am constantly harping on about what a great place it is to live, work and grow up. If you ever get back here give me a shout, you are welcome at my place any time.
Love that mate! 🤝
Our sense of hospitality is very important to us as Muslims. Thank you for your effort in showing the best side of us, a side the BBC did not want to show out of spite. Its not lost on us when someone is sincere.
I being poor Muslim find it hard to digest ... Muslims are hospital in general to the people higher than them in social status.
I have lived here for over 20 years, and this country has given me and my family everything working as an expatriate worker .Thank you
When I first went to the middle east as a kid, I remember my uncles front door was jammed open. Hadn't been closed for decades. No one ever worried about intruders.
I’m an African American Muslim I just performed Umrah in August and I love the Middle East and the culture. I m always thinking about leaving America and moving to an Islamic country! I thank Allah to bringing me to Islam! I love this deen

Hey Davo
I'm from the UK and like yourself was totally blinded by the Western Media. I've loved ya videos mate and hope you'll go back to Qatar and other Eastern countries. I've totally added Qatar to my bucket list.
Mate, you should totally expand your remit and go travel this side of the world with sport/football in mind. The way you mingle with different nationalities, is second to none. You're an absolute gentleman and a respectful one, so these vlogs would work a treat and sure addictive to watch. Thanks once again for showing how football and people come together!
Thanks for the kind words mate! I will definitely aim to be back to the Middle East. Nothing beats meeting new people and getting to know new cultures and places ❤️

The Last Sermon of prophet Muhammad delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul Hijjah 10 A.H (c. 630 AD)
.
📖📖
.
.
The Prophet, peace be upon him, delivered a comprehensive sermon in the farewell pilgrimage. The sermon included basic principles of humanity in a very simple language. No wonder that he delivered such a sermon as he was gifted with a very eloquent style of speech. The sermon contained many facts that are necessary to guide the heedless world of today and give them happiness.
.
One of the principles that the Prophet, peace be upon him, indicated in the Farewell sermon is equality among human beings in all situations and at all levels.
.
The Prophet, peace be upon him said: "O' people, your Lord is one, and your father is one. There is no virtue for an Arab over a non-Arab, nor for a non-Arab over an Arab, and neither for a red-skin [person] over a black-skin [person], nor for a black-skin [person] over a red-skin [person], except by righteousness. Have I delivered the message?" They said: "The Prophet, peace be upon him, has delivered the message." And he said: “Let the one who listened to this speech convey it to those who are absent!”)
.
People are equal; there are no differences among the colored, the white, the black, the rich, the poor, the powerful, the weak, the handsome and the ugly, etc. The most honorable among people are those who are more pious.
.
This is the first principle of human rights; all human beings are equal regardless of their gender, sect, color, culture, age, position, power or physical appearance.
If man does not believe in Allah the Almighty and in His Promise and Menace, and if he does not believe that Allah knows everything done in secret or in public, he will be selfish, and so he will achieve his own goals regardless of anything else, build his glory on the wreck of other people, collect his wealth on impoverishing others, build his honor on humiliating others, and save his life by killing others. That is why the prophet peace be upon him said in the Farewell sermon:
.
(…The Prophet peace be upon him, said: "Verily Allah has declared your blood and your money inviolable as the sanctity of this [sacred] day in this [sacred] month in this [sacred] town till you meet your Lord. Have I delivered the message?" They said: "Yes." The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "May Allah be my Witness. Let those who are present inform those who are absent."
There is minority ignorant in the west whom the BBC/CNN/FOX fooling around throughout, that's how they survive in the media limelight.
I had lived with family my forty years in Muslim Arab country and brought up my kids there. It was so lovely and wonderful. Kids also enjoyed and grown there youth in that calm atmosphere. Still dreaming of those gone days.
Even the situations in my motherland is worse nowaday.
The Apocryphal Twain: “If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you do, you're misinformed.”
Media are telling the true bro, am here for 5 to 7 years. You are not seeing thurt dear are covering it up
Its was a shame BBC didn’t show open Ceremony jokes
This guys speaking FACT 💯💯🔝❤️
It gave me goosebumps at the end. Davo is soo right and as a Muslim I can't tell you the therapeutic relief most Muslims receive from videos like your World Cup series.
People have been experiencing real mass trauma from the consistent and somewhat relentless pressure of the western media. The idea of being painted as evil and backwards in your society and in general across the world weighs heavily on a person and community, especially over a prolonged period. These videos seem to soothe that and mean so much to so many.
The whole thing has been amazing viewing and it's been great to see how it allowed people from all walks of life to experience the best of Middle Eastern and Muslim culture, something quite frankly not easily done by people of many nationalities. Many people came from South America but also the Far East. Joined by the open minded Europeans, Yanks and Aussies. A great world Cup and somewhat therapeutic for so many.
So sad England are out but can't wait to see how the other lions do. Viva Morocco!!
Mass trauma from constant pressure for prolonged time!
Brought tears to my eyes!
It is very difficult to grow up fighting for years to just be fairly understood and accepted for who you are.
Is it fair to live your whole life justifying yourself against the western media?!
I'm gutted that England are out but your videos were great Davo. I've visited Doha many times as 2-day stopovers to get to mainly SE Asia, other Arab countries, or Maldives or Seychelles. You have been very open about this but it is fair to say that it works both ways - many people from England are not racist bigots and idiotic drunken hooligans - many are very civilised and polite people and I will say that as a fellow Brit from a Pakistani Muslim background born and bred in the UK. Honestly, your videos were truly a breath of fresh air. Now let us think about 2026!! Surely it will be coming home one day, mate!
Well said mate. All the travelling England fans I know are respectful and eager to learn about new places and cultures. Sadly the media does the same thing with us - using poisonous coverage to paint us as stereotypical xenophobic hooligans, because it sells. Thanks for watching and thanks for rejecting that narrative 🤝🏴
@@DavoBirmingham2 I know Davo mate. Media do portray English fans as xenophobic hooligans but the reality is that (as you rightly pointed out), that many English fans are definitely respectful and eager to learn about different cultures and places - you are speaking facts here.

I'm a Canadian .. have lived in Qatar 20yrs .. and still living here ..
i have learned just to ignore the common consensus of most large media platforms.
I enjoy living here .. its the safest place i have ever been or lived in the entire world .. I have never locked my home, or my car.
I can and do commonly leave the keys in my ignition while going shopping or out and about ..
the people are nice and the atmosphere is international with people from all over the world.
its extremely modern society, i generally want for nothing while living here, i can get just about everything.
The added perk for those living and working here ... its a TAX FREE society .. no income taxes and no sales taxes to the normal consumer, which makes a huge difference in a person's disposable income.
again.. I'm from Canada, I've been here for 20yrs and dont see myself leaving anytime soon. its a good place to live and work.
No matter what politicians and media say...a country is about its people. I think your open mind does justice that opened the truth of Qatars true culture and society...how warm, kind and friendly they are. Even though Qatar is a wealthy country, they showed hospitality to the fullest since its their honour and pride to receive the opportunity to welcome so many guests of the fifa world cup. U should come to Qatar and other muslims countries more often....u will receive a lot of new fans and subscribers. Wish i the best and i hope u will enjoy your remaining moments in Qatar. Many greetings from 🇱🇺

You don’t how refreshing it is to hear someone called Dave from England sharing this on this platform. I spend almost 2 years in the Middle East as a UK expat and been drumming your messages to people in the Uk but they make out that it’s easy for me to say these things as I’m a Muslim of south Asian heritage & I’m culturally closer to the Arabs. Really enjoyed your dairies & thank you.
Thank you to show the real picture of Qatar
Hope you comeback soon ❤❤
I had a great time discussing about Qatar and our cultural values with you. Looking forward to having you back in Qatar. Keep doing the good work that you are doing. All the best :)
Honest and great guy! It’s been a wild World Cup. We’ll done to Qatar. Pleasure to tune in from Sweden!
🥰
Swede (but not living in Sweden anymore) here too and I was in Qatar (and Saudi) as well. Had the same kind of experience there.
I'm a British expat who has lived in Bahrain for 20 years. The people in this region are incredibly warm and hospitable. Great to see you challenging the negative bias of the media.
Finally someone is being fair to an Arabic country,thank you for doing this and I guarantee you that you will find this warm hospitality in all our Arabic world.
Welcome again and hope to see you soon in my country Morocco ❤️
to be fair he's not the only vloger who "finally was being fair to Qatar", i've seen a ton of independent vlogers who had more or less similar experience as Davo, who came to Qatar not so confident, and got the shock of their lives when most things they've heard their media tell them, turned out to be exaggerations at best, and total lies at worse.

Thank you Davo from a Muslim Arab Brummie for showing it as it is. Much appreciated. Good to know there are open minded people who will speak the truth. Means a lot for me to see my ethnic region being portrayed in a positive light. Hospitality towards the guest is part of our faith as instructed by Prophet Muhammad pbuh. God bless you.

That woman went out of her way to say thank you. Your a legend bro May Allah bless u
Thank you, brother, for your honest coverage.
A true gentleman and an amazing ambassador to your county… the Arab world was delighted hosting you guys ❤
Davo, I loved your world cup diary series. You earned a loyal viewer and subscriber with this.
I'll keep watching all your content and supporting you.
We need to see more mangoes on your channel

My dear brother, Asalaam Alaikum (peace be with you), thank you from the bottom of my heart for your honesty, your words of love and care and unity, thank you for visiting Qatar, thank you for having lunches and dinners with Muslims and May you have a safe and sound trip back home to UK.
✌🏽
Thank you for the kind words, my friend 🤝 I had an amazing time ❤️
People with big & generous hearts invariably recognise similarities in other people. There's no doubt they have seen that in you Davo. Great honest & down to earth reporting. 👍
Thanks for those words, very kind of you to say 🙏
WELL SAID!!
“This place is not perfect - no place ever will be”
“Forward thinking”
Thanks for the compliment…
First best video about Qatar from a British guy who challenges Media stereotype
Hello Davo, I came to know your channel during the World Cup. I think your channel is worth to be one of the most popular channels on TH-cam. Your strength is how open minded you are, and how you like to see things from different perspectives. I think you could make a travel channel, and I am sure you will reach millions of subscribers in short time.
Thanks for the kind words. I’m not usually one to put myself on the camera in my videos but I felt this tournament required it. The vlogging has been really enjoyable for me so I would love to do more of it in the future and will definitely be back to this special part of the world ❤️
@@DavoBirmingham2 I love traveling my self. It so happened that I am in the UK right now, but I travelled to about 24 countries and I have learned something form each country that I had been. One day in another country and culture is worth reading a book about that country - the sites the sounds, the people, the atmosphere. Most important of all you will learn to look things from different perspectives and understand why people do what they do, without judging them. I wish you all the best for all your future plans.
@@AbdisalamFarah391 completely agree, travel is the only thing you can spend money on that makes you richer 💯
I have heaped praise over your videos but today i wanted to give a shout-out to the English fans in general. As a Frenchman, im obviously happy we beat you, but i have to say, the English fans that came to Qatar were a credit to their country. No hooligans, no fights or brawls - just a massive celebration of football at its best and a top respect of Qatari hospitality. Big up to you and to England.
I guess some credit could be given to the lack of alcohol n the strict Qatari laws? 😜
@@maryanne7161 agree
Those sorts of fans come for alcohol first football second I feel, so it was honestly pretty nice not to have those around, although of course most people can handle their drinks decently.
This is to show that ppl do not really need Alcohol to enjoy to the fullest a massive event like the World Cup .
I was blown away with the hospitality, the comfort and the quality of everything. The people are awesome! THANK YOU QATAR!!
Honestly and decency are rare value nowadays
Thanks شكرًا
Qatar is very safe country, ❤ hope you come back again bro.
THANK YOU Davo. I am a muslim woman and I have NEVER been oppressed by any man in my family or community. Sad that I feel the need to say it - but THANK YOU for traveling to Qatar with an open mind and highlighting the positive. No country is perfect, but we are indeed tired of the bias rubbish narrated by mainstream western media. Go well and may your channel grow from strength to strength
Will miss watching you in Qatar man. Love from Bangladesh for being honest.
Just back yesterday from 3 fantastic weeks in Qatar and I have to say exactly the same a Davo, great place and great people, loved every single minute of our stay
I’m sure I speak for most of us
Your more then welcome here, in our country and in our 🏠😊
We can't never be perfect but respecting our differences is what makes us united.
Thank you for being honest & hopefully it doesn't end here...have a safe journey & bless you 🙏
Mash Allah Tebarek Allah ❤
Alhamdlilah Great Job 👍💯✅✅
I’m an American, I’ve lived outside the US for a couple of years. I’m in the states now but I want to return to being an expat. I’ve stopped watching the news media outlets here in the states a long time ago. And thank goodness for the internet, for social media because it’s given me a whole different perspective on Qatar and the region as a whole. I now want to spend time in that region to understand it more. What we learn in school can very well be just biases and indoctrination of what your country, particularly from a western culture perspective, about what the world is like. But the truth is that there’s no better education than going to a particular country and talking to the people there. I want to travel and live in different parts of the world to get a different perspective on life.
Alhamdulillah thanks for ur video bro.. May Allah always protect u me and the world for harmony in humanity.. respect from Indonesia.
Thank you so much for using your platform to send a positive message despite the immense negativity Qatar has been receiving.
Thank you Davo! Too bad to see you leaving Qatar. You are an honest and transparent man. Respect and appreciation is our common language. Let's use it more and more!
Great Job Davo,thank you for being so honest and letting the world see the real face of Qatar.
Absolutely loved watching your world cup diaries. Plenty of afterthought regarding the media and the way they try to feed us rubbish
Thanks Davo

We the people of Pakistan also thank you for showing positive aspects of Qatar. From Pakistan, I never been to Qatar in my life but I love 💕💕💕 Qatar and Qatari people
Thank you for your world cup diary videos. It's been a joy to watch and to see what it's really like there in Qatar.

Thank you for honest and open minded portrait of the Arab world. The Muslim ummah wants to build bridges ,with the rest of the world. Football is a universal game that can start by doing this.
As a British Pakistani born in the UK.I appreciate your comments about the Quran, yes you right there are difference in culture but we are all one race.We should all be united ,not divided by the media and politics .You got your self a follower of your channel.
Keep up the good work.Yes its a shame England lost,but In sha Allah one day its coming home.
This is such an underrated channel. I am so glad that this came as a recommendation. I have watched every vlog the past month. It's such a beautiful and transparent content. I am hoping this content reaches millions around the world and Davo being recognised as a brand ambassador to bring peace and unity in so many lives. Thank you Davo from the bottom of my heart.
Regards, Philip
Dubai.
PS: Come to Dubai and I can gurantee your channel will reach millions of viewers
Imagine this World Cup Happened 20 years ago, no social media, we will fully accept what BBC & CNN preached to us. Those who went to the tournament, their story will never be told
Power of Social media
Well done Davo
love you Davo, such a good man, you are such a good Ambassador for many decent English people, you are a credit to England, lots of love, keep telling the truth. we going to miss you around the streets of Doha.🥰
Davo, i don't know why i am in tears listening to all your remarks. Maybe because you are sincere and honest to convey the truth to alla people all over the wolrd. Love from Indonesia.
That is very touching ❤️ thanks for watching 🤝
Pls come to Malang, East Java, Indonesia. My family will your host to see Mt. BROMO, an active volcano famous to many European People.
Thank you for your positive feedback, honest opinion about Qatar. I’m Fijian Indian living in Canada. Im now very interested and definitely want to go and visit Qatar Insha Allah one day. So good to know from you guys especially listening from Europe & west who are visiting there themselves and exploring the place on their own. ❤️👍🏻💯✔️😊
Thanks Davo. This is very refreshing. Muslims always get a bad rap. It was nice to see a non-muslim being open minded and displaying muslim values and culture to the world - appreciate it. Great stuff! All the best with your future endeavours.
Complete respect for your openness and inquisitive nature. The rule of thumb is to see which other countries that have been mis-portrayed. I have seen youtube travel loggers going to these countries and been blown away by their experiences and learning that the people are truly not representative of how the news has vilified them.
I saw some Engish/American/German youtubers in Pakistan, they loved the hospitality and saw that the people were really trying to prove themselves. These countries are gems that a lot of people will not see or have experiences like you and are desperate to have an opportunity to showcase their hospitality.
We should have won yesterday, we were the better team, never played so well!
Wow..A genuine Englishman talking facts and supporting a country and not talking negative about the country..I'm Born and bred in the UK and have relatives working in Qatar and absolutely love the country and I'm so glad the world cup was held in Qatar and people are seeing how the media always is trying to tarnish the middle Eastern and Muslim Majority countries
Thank you for not listening to BBC and New York Times. He said it very clearly. He also said " I'll come back". Thank you for saying the right things about Qatar.
I'm a Saudi woman postgraduate student in England, and I see and recognise daily how people here look at me, how they have negative and fabricated ideas about the Arab world, and why they keep asking, many times after graduation, why I'm going back to Saudi Arabia. And it saddens me so much that in this era of globalisation and widespread social media when everyone has access to the means and opportunities to learn the truth about others, so many people continue to believe what they see in the media. And I'm tired of clarifying to them that, despite our flaws, I feel much more secure and happy in my country than in the U.K.
So many thanks to you, and you’re welcome anytime in Qatar or Saudi Arabia 🤍
Thank you for telling the truth., 🙂
I'm from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Respect to all the Brits who tell the truth unlike the media!
Thank you so much for telling the truth about Qatar. Know that you will always have a second home here, you are welcome whenever you want and we will be happy to see you back in Qatar 🙏🏼
Media bias is terrible and it's actually refreshing to see someone like you showing the reality of the situation. There's no perfect place on earth but never judge a country or a people you haven't personally been to or met. Thank you good Sir.
Thank you mate for being objective and showing things how it is.
You are a real Journalist brother.
كلامك جميل
يظهر كم انت شخص محترم وجميل ليس لديك عنصرية اعلامكم

أختك غادة من مصر
Our differences define us, that's what makes us all unique. Just like you are from the Western media.
Our differences are also what makes this world more interesting to live in. Thanks for being different.
You are a top human being brother. Your humanity shines through. Watched all your videos and it has been such a huge relief to see so many visitors who have not listened to the BBC propaganda. Can't thank you enough. Have a safe journey. Peace and blessings to you bro. Respects
Thank you very much 😊 you have been so amazing during your journey in Qatar 🇶🇦 Hopefully you can come back again. I am glad that you are telling the truth, and we love you ❤
It's been emotional Davo. Thanks for making us feel like apart of it and showing us Brits how it's been one of the best World cups of all time.
Wish you all the Best Davo.. Thanks for the great coverage.. Have a safe flight back...
Respect to you for being genuine Sir.
The best advise is never believe the Media agendas, never let them do the thinking for you, check everything for yourselves.
Fellow Brummie here who lives in the UAE now. Dude you will not want to go back to Brum! There is something about the middle East that pulls you in. Of course I love Brum but sadly it's not safe anymore.
Us uk muslims had to endure a lot too. Felt like I had to mind my business whilst my coworkers/managers were giving ignorant takes on qatar/muslim countries and Islam in general just to keep my job. And all the stuff from the news and social media, it gets very draining.
Big yourself up Davo, loved the series. If only there was more sincerity among us.. thank you!
Thank you so much Davo, I really appreciate you covering and giving an honest opinion. You have been very great and your welcome with one arms your visit us again. This is your second home and all of our homes and open to welcome you 🧡
👍👍
We would like to thank you very much for your feelings and sincerity in conveying the truth, and you are welcome at any time among your brothers as if you were in your own country.
Good luck to England in the upcoming championships. 🙌
Wow, you are such a good human being, When you have an open mind & are able to respect others despite differences, then you have really cracked it as a civilised being.
Top lad got a feeling your honesty and Jude being an absolute baller has created a few more blue noses in the world KRO
We’ll miss you Davo! Thank you very much for everything, hope life treats you well! Good luck always, hope to see you in Qatar soon!
بيض الله وجيهكم اختي لطيفة... والله الي سويتوه بالحفاوة والكرم والاصالة...شي يرفع الرأس..رفعتها روسنا...ياجعل ربي يحفظكم يا أهل قطر الخير..الله يحفظكم ويزيدكم من فضله .🤲🏻🧡🇸🇦🇶🇦
