Shaykh Uthman

Like I didn't half step the gang world.

So I was going to half step being Muslim.

so I absolutely cold turkey cut my friends out so the first night was hard second third fourth week two week three weeks and it was difficult but they didn't do anything so I was strange but they did know that I had a lot of guns you know I mean they knew because yeah so after a while I started thinking

These are people I grew up with.

These are people that I was very close to.

These are people that we had crazy experiences with.

And they don't know about Islam.

And they don't know about another life that is a way.

A lot of these guys, their fathers were in the gang.

Their grandfather was in the gang.

Their brothers were in the gang.

Their uncles were in the gang.

So that's all they know.

So to them, for you, maybe get up in the morning, hit the gym, drink a shake or whatever, drink your coffee.

That's your daily routine.

That's what you know, right?

Mm-hmm.

to them you know you get up at noon you walk into school and you know teachers don't say anything to you and you sell your drugs and you stab somebody and you go home at night and light up whatever and hang out till 4am that's that's literally all they know so i said i think it's my job to go and tell them about islam and tell them about you know you can get out of the gang world you know so

I decided to go back, but to preach to them.

Wow.
