First, I'd like to introduce you to Alya of http://www.alyanuri.com/ a 9 yo author who wrote books of smoking, alcohol and drugs. InshaAllah, you can partner in the future to further your cause. Second, and more importantly, inshaAllah, you accept my critique and recommendations as a humble servant of Allah and your sister in Islam. I highly recommend, especially since I am only the 20th viewer, to take out or change the audio to your video. I assure you that you will be able to keep more people's attention to view the whole video and read your message if you do so. Many of our readers on AMM live strictly by the sunnah, and I know they would not sit through your whole video and definitely not promote it or pass it to brothers and sisters who would benefit from viewing it, specifically because of the musical instruments used (i.e. horns and flutes) and the alluring singing. As you may know many things from the MiddleEast (such as this music that is not a nasheed or using only voices and drums) is clearly not Islamic. By playing it, it diminishes your Islamic message greatly. When you change the audio, please comment with the new link and inshaAllah, it will be blessed with greater viewers. "And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing, etc.) to mislead (men) from the Path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it (the Path of Allah, or the Verses of the Qur'an) by way of mockery. For such there will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-fire)." (Surah Luqman, Chapter #31, Verse #6) "And befool them gradually those whom you can among them with your voice (i.e. songs, music, and any other call for Allah's disobedience), make assaults on them with your cavalry and your infantry, share with them wealth and children (by tempting them to earn money by illegal ways - usury, or by committing illegal sexual intercourse), and make promises to them." But Satan promises them nothing but deceit. (Surah Al-Isra, Chapter #17, Verse #64) Wa-alaykum asalam brother Adem & Jazaka Allahu Khayrun for commenting and sharing your links.
