At the end of this video we all are going to learn from this so guys without any further Ado let’s get on to this video and check out what Muhammad Ali will be saying concerning his rir story I’m Muhammad Ali and I would like to ask
You what made you change to the Islamic Faith Muhammad Ali born Cashes marcelis Clay J is widely regarded as one of the most significant and celebrated sports figures of the 20th century he converted to Islam around the age of 18 after joining Nation of Islam a black nationalist organization why you and sister being called Muhammad Ali that’s the name
Given to me by my leading teacher The Honorable Elijah Muhammad that’s my original name that’s a black man Nam cash clave was my slave name I’m no longer a Slave What does it mean Muhammad means worthy of all praises and Ali means most high do you intend to fight under that
Name yes sir I want to be called by that name I write autographs of that name I want to be known all over the world as that name you continue to be unafraid of this yeah uh I’d like to say something right here you know cash is Clay yes why do
You want to say cash is Clay when everybody is calling you Muhammad Ali then why you got to be the one of all people whose color to keep saying cash is Clay why don’t you call me my name man my name is Muhammad Ali and you will
Announce it right there in the cent of that Rain decision the unded champion of the world Muhammad Ali soon after converting to Islam he met Malcolm X who soon became his spiritual and political Mentor unfortunately Ali’s friendship with Malcolm X Ended as Malcolm split with the Nation of Islam a couple of weeks after Ali joined Ali
Later said that turning his back on Malcolm X was one of the mistakes he regretted most in his life I wish had been able to tell Malcolm I was sorry that he was right about so many things he was a visioner ahead of us all regrettably the Nation of Islam was
Deviant from mainstream Islam Ali finally left the Nation of Islam in 1975 what made you change to the Islamic faith and do you keep strictly to the laws of Islam and are you as good a Muslim as you are a boxer well as not for me you know the
Word Muslim mean one who submits entirely to the will of God one who submits entirely to the will of God that’s what Muslim mean so I I don’t know I cannot be the judge on how much I submit entirely to the will of God God
Himself can only judge us so I can’t say how good I am and no true Muslim will brag or even will even take a chance on saying he’s good or he’s halfway good or not it’s up to Allah God to be the judge see so I’m not going to say one thing
About uh how good I am because I don’t know you never get good enough I’m always striving to be right and you as me another question why did I change because uh I was raised to baptist and after touring the world uh I found out that there are 600
Million Muslims on the planet and all religions are good I wrote something once it says rivers lakes and streams they all have different names but they all contain water so does religions have different names and they all contain God than the truth only expressed in different ways forms and times what
Jesus taught was good what Moses taught was right what Buddha taught was right what Christian taught was right what Isaiah lot Noah God has always send prophets to different people in different times with messages for those people and people have decided to choose those prophets as their leader some
Follow Krishna some follow Buddha some follow Muhammad some follow Jesus some follow whoever but Moses all of them are right Jesus made a statement I come not to destroy no law of the Prophet but to fulfill all of God’s prophets are right you got to believe in all of them so I
Decided to take the Islamic path the Christian path is a perfect religion if the people practice and you have two coats give me one I’m hungry you feed me love your enemy pray for those who use you forgive give charity don’t hate Christianity is a perfect religion it’s
The people who don’t live the religion the religion is good but the people do things in the name of the religion a lot of Muslims do things they shouldn’t do a lot of Protestants a lot of Buddhas a lot of Hindus live like they shouldn’t live but the religion itself the
Religion is right but but the people who follow religion ain’t so right so I choose to follow the Islamic path because I’ve never saw so much love I never saw so many people hugging each other kissing each other praying five times a day the women in the long
Garments the way they would eat you can go to any country sayam alaykum alayum you got a home you got a brother I chose the Islamic path because they connected me as a Christian in America I couldn’t go to the white churches uh as a Christian uh that was for those people
It did them good it didn’t do me good uh I saw Jesus Christ I saw a white man with blond and blue eyes I look at the Lord’s suffering Christianity I see all white people all the pictures are of angels are white why come we never go to
Heaven why come the Mexican don’t go to heaven and fly around why the Puerto Rican every all the Angels happen to be white angels I look at Peter was white Mary was white Paul was white God’s son Jesus was white uh everything was white cars and the king of the jungles he was
White and the angel food cake was made white and the devil food cake was chocolate and if I threaten you I’m going to Blackmail you black was always bad in the western world uh the black cat was the bad luck uh if you get put out of fraternity group you get black
Ball uh black was always bad so the only thing that made me feel good the only thing that made me feel free that connected me with Saudi Arabia the Islamic religion connect with Pakistan Morocco Syria I set that where Colonel Gaddafi had done in his Palace stayed
Overnight because of a Muslim as a Christian I never could sit with Christian leaders as a Muslim I sit with Sadat I sit with President NASA um um Marcus of the Philippines aukan of Pakistan before he died I’ve been s with Kings of Sheik Z of Abu Dhabi Kings and
People of these nations have welcomed me as a brother and I’m a citizen and now in America I’m respected by all colors and throughout the world as a Muslim see the name Muhammad is the most common name in the world there are more and muhammads on the planet there are 4
Billion people on Earth and every third person is a Muslim so for me I’m not condemning no other religion but for me being a world figure joh taking the name Muhammad Ali which is the name of my people for the brother of America accept the Islamic religion was better for me
Where another person Shintoism Buddhism ISM uh uh uh Christianity Baptist Catholic Protestant Jewish that might fit another man but you can choose any religion you want if you believe it you’ll see God because all of them are good so I chose the Islamic religion that’s why I chose it Muhammad muhamed
Uh don’t you think I preach pretty good very good don’t I make it plain don’t you understand now you as me you as me some pretty you asked me some pretty tough questions but didn’t I make a lot of sense I didn’t I didn’t make the Christians hate me I didn’t make the
Protestants hate me I didn’t make the Catholics hate me I told you truth I said all of them are good if they live it it’s just the people who don’t live it so I chose Islamic P that’s a religion is a touching thing religion very few people can see some people you
Say I’m a Muslim don’t want to hear you some people you I’m a Protestant pow pow you I’m a Catholic pow pow all of them are right all of them are from God all of them are good and teach good it’s just the people and the titles that make
You Prejudice but all of them got the same this is the power of this you see me do this you call me the greatest that’s because I’m more religious than I am physical and I study a lot and you may be surprised if you hear me talk
Because you never heard me talk this way but I know about I got about 45 lectures that I memorize and I can tell you something about all the religious books all the religions because I’m a strong beli in God and Humanity that’s why I’m having these boys that’s why God blesses
Me to be so great here because all the time I’ve been here I’ve been talking about god pushing god pushing religion I’m not talking about me how great I am how much money I got I’m always giving the praise to God so that’s why I’m as
Great as I am in this physical world because I push him first well Muhammad we’re running out of time now professional boxing in 1981 Ali focuses all his attention to I and charity philanthropy and humanitarian efforts in 1984 Ali was diagnosed with Parkinson’s syndrome I’m blessed and thankful to God
That I understand his trying me this is a trial from God he gave me this illness to remind me that I am not number one he is Muhammad Ali passed away on 2016 of septic shock at the age of 74 well that’s a very interesting um video looking at um the story of um Muhammad um Ali of course when you look at in this very video he said so many things in understand concerning himself and then also his belief but then as the video in progresses of course he spoke
About um Malcolm X and then also Muhammad Ali and then also their separation now whatever makes them to separate well Muhammad Ali and Malcolm X of course we know that inoc we human right um activists but then at that point in time of course we understand the political movement that was
Happening understand in the United States understand precisely concerning the white and then also the black um people now we also have you understand religion right and then we also have the political movement even though both of them happens to be black people of course fighting for the right of the
Black race but then at the end of the day you get to realize that these two people you understand fails to be able to separate you understand their religion from the political movement and then that resulted Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali to end up parting ways and
That’s why you see at the course of it of course Muhammad Ali at some point when Malcolm X in passed away he felt that maybe probably he could have not fall out or do what he did all the decisions he took at the cause of it because whatever you understand they do
As of that time end up affecting the Muslim Brotherhood now I could look at this this way that while you understand do you alive and still pushing for the right of the black people I will say that because we know that the Muslim Brotherhood have this very strong
Cohesion right they tend to stick with one another right and they tend to look out for each other that’s how the Muslim Brotherhood is and it is something that when you look it from the outside you tend to admire the Muslim that one there is no doubt about it you tend to admire
Them even the way or the nature in which understand they pray and then they conduct thems or how they even presents understand to the society not to talk about should we talk about understand their piousness or should talk about their modesty when it comes to their appearance both for the male and then
Also for the women when you look at it is something that when you look at it you tend to admire it or should we talk about all the five times Sal they offer every day those are some of the things that they understand when you see of
Course you going to admire them but at the end of the day whatever you understand they end up doing is it to the glory of God now let me come back to what um Muhammed understand Ali said he says that when you look at the water right and then you go to different
Rivers right all the rivers in have different names right all of them have different names and that is how he also see religion but I and you knows that religion cannot be seen in that aspect and that’s why he went on to says that when you go all the rivers they all have
Probably we could talk about River Jordan right we could talk about maybe probably the Red Sea Mediterranean Sea you know so many rivers in the that around and lakes and then the rest of it but at the end of the day what is the content of those rivers or those lakes
Or those Ocean or those SE is is water that’s the common thing so he Felts that the buddhi the Christians the Muslim all the Jews that they would worship one God well it’s been expected that it supposed to be one God but if you look at it in
The the saying of Jesus Christ then you got to realize that they are not the same thing but then it was expected of it to be one thing but it’s not the same thing because when you look at in a Christianity per say or when you look at
What um Adam was teaching in us and his children of course when you follow what um Adam was saying when you look at the Book of Genesis you realize that everything was actually innocent perfect at that place you realize that of course there is what creation in the same way
There is Judgment there is everything there was reward there was blessings everything in the book of um Genesis at the same you understand whatever you understand Moses was teaching was actually perfect same thing is also applicable to Prophet Muhammad whatever he was saying it is perfect whatever Jesus Christ preached was also perfect
But something happened no when you look at it and then maybe probably you follow the Quran or you look at maybe some of the teachings in of the Quran you get to realize that the message that God sent through prophet Muhammad was perfect that is when will follow according to
What God is saying at the end of the day as everything in the same progresses and then therefore in the Quran then at some point they tend to say that oh the Muslim says that they have the hadit of the Prophet which is like the interpretation of some of the things
That the prophet was saying in the Quran he tried to kind of explain it to the people to be able to understand and that resulted to what the hadit now when you look at the hadit the hadit may not be perfect and that is the reason why why
You see when the Muslim are trying to explain you the had of the Prophet that’s Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him then this is are some certain things of course those things may not be directly inocent be in the Quran but the day feels like these are some of the
Things the prophet say and then those things may not end up being imperfect and that’s why some people when they look at Islam and then you’re looking at part the life of the Prophet then you can actually get the whole thing wrong why because you’re going to look at him
As a human and when you look at it as a human you’re going to find some kind of lapses in it and then that’s why you can be able to get everything wrong but then when you look at understand the Quran on its own and then that’s why even the
Quran chapter 4 he end up saying that if not for God then they could have what corrupt the Quran why do you think that he say so they could have corrupt it right why is it that when you look at most of the had then you see that some
Of the had contradict one another why do you think so because of humans are the one trying to interpret what the prophet say right and that is why you see it tends to contradict and that’s why you even have some call it authentic had it some are unauthentic why do you have the
Authentic and unauthentic all that I’m trying to make you to understand is when you follow the Quran on it this so I could say that Islam is perfect but the Muslim may not be perfect why will the Muslim not be perfect is because when you look at
Their lives you are going to get it very wrong if you should look at a life of a human to be able to know if this religion is right at that point in time you going to get everything wrong the Muslim in other way around they fa that
Their religion is perfect so if you are not in their religion then you are in the religion of imperfection and then therefore yours is wrong and then therefore they are not even willing to listen to you at that point in time or trying to condemn other people you could
End up you understand losing your soul in the process of doing that and that’s why we need to be very very careful of what we do Jesus have already said in and in his that he is the way the truth and the life and no one can come to the
Father except through him they believe in Jesus they believe in him as a prophet they do not believe in him as a God but until you believe in Jesus as God that is the only thing that will guarantees you eternal life but if you see him as
Human then I’m telling you that brothers and sisters we may end up you understand in the eternal hell fire I am not pronouncing any judgment to anyone but I am saying this by how I understand the scriptures of course I know that a lot of you have things that you have to say
That may be in contrast to some of the things in the I am saying and of course I would like to welcome them at the comment section of course we are here learning from one another so I will not stop a people you understand from seeing
Whatever they want to see of course I have read a lot of you understand comment at the comment section that people drop concerning particular um topic and if you look at it you could bear me witness that I do not block anybody from saying a particular thing
In my comment section the ones I can respond to them I try my best to respond to them others maybe because they are much maybe sometimes before I reach I may be engaged in doing some certain things I may not respond but then I always try my best to see that I respond
To some of them but one thing is for sure we all are going to be learning from one another so this is the end of my video if you like my reaction make like share and subscribe and if you have any video you want me to react to don’t
