REACTING TO SIDS IMMODESTY - SID & DINAS PODCAST 

I am a Muslim I used to wear hijab in my teenage years then decided to remove it as I didn't like it, I wasn't wearing it for the right reasons I wasn't taught why I was wearing it. As I left school and wasn't in hijab anymore I started getting this horrible feeling and was always conscious of men seeing me without my hijab and always thinking what if this is what takes me to hell. Therefore I started looking into why we wear hijab and after learning about this I wore the hijab again SubhanAllah now I love it. I pray that Dina and every other girl going through this has guidance.

Honestly, I’m shook. Brother Ali Dawah showed me my own hypocrisy. I was so focused on the external modesty of the woman, but never did I give a thought to the brother’s immodest speech. And even more frightening, I was so focused on her unspoken or unfinished(alhamduillah) statement to point that I forgot about his Blatantly spoken statements. SubhanAllah!

She grown up, he didn’t! She lives with him and without his support in deen ... it affects her - its Simple as that!

I absolutely loved this, they did what women always complain about. Assessed a man's modesty rather than a woman, highlighting the very real opposite perspective of hijab and modesty. thank you.

I took off my hijab because I was too immature to know the magnitude of a hijab but mashallah I have worn it once again and it feels like it did before, it's my shield and I love wearing it!

....".your 'subscribers' will not intercede for you on the day of judgement "..... think about that.

Too many people want Fluffy Islam: the Islam that doesn't challenge our values, supports our opinions, & fits perfectly into our worldview. Some Muslims accept Islam until they hear something they dislike. Then they reject scholars & speakers and say "that's not Islam." Rather than redefining their understanding of Islam, they want to redefine Islam itself. Their ego and arrogance blinds them. Their acceptance of Islam hinges on believing in only the most ambiguous parts - the parts they can misinterpret to fit their desires. If our reaction to hearing something we dislike is rejecting it rather than seeking knowledge/clarity, are we worshiping Allah or our egos? Have you seen he/she who has taken as his/her god his/her [own] desire, and Allah has sent him/her astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his/her hearing and his/her heart and put over his/her vision a veil? So who will guide him/her after Allah ? Then will you not be reminded? (45:23)

Wow brother hijab's point about sid internalizing colonialist views of Islam is shockingly accurate. He is definately unaware of the implications of what he's saying, may Allah swt guide him up the straight path

This is exactly what i was thinking after watching their whole podcast Sid makes very shameful comments that's not how a Muslim speaks

This is EXACTLY what I was thinking, whilst watching the video I was more shocked by sid than Dina 100%

There’s something really off about Sid... I remember when they first got married and he had an issue in one of the videos with her saying alhamdullilah or something. I don’t think he understands his religion which is sad but it has inadvertently affected Dina too which is even sadder.

Dina’s and Sids podcast gave me goosebumps. Their true faces and values truly shocked me, especially Sid.

It seems Sid still thinks it's a joke, and not fully supporting his wife in her time of need

I had to comment on dinas podcast not because of dina and her hijaab but her husband sid,he talks total nonsense is rude and talks about issues that are inappropriate,he is fully aware that young girls are watching this even dina disagreed with him, he also sed where are your parents and basically dina is not an influencer,hello this is social media how can u say this will not influence,im sure he would not put his kids infront of the tv and not worry about what they are watching,hes totally off his head and needs to wake up and smell the coffee.i I think Dina is so much more respectful modest and I respect her for saying that what she has chosen to do is not islamically right,May Allah SWT bless her Inshah Allah and bring her imaan back even stronger

Lack of piety in a spouse will lead to lack of faith in the couple overall, that is what’s happened

Why are these guys making multiple videos talking about another woman and her husband. It’s better to worry about your own journey in your faith. It makes me uncomfortable for you guys to talk about these people that you don’t know.

It is not appropriate to blame Dina's choice on being emotionally unstable because she just gave birth.... Or to say that it sounds like she's going through phychological issues. That's is completely inappropriate to say. This is what she feels and where she . She has every right to do what she feels is right for her.... And you are actually the disappointment for trying to blame it on her emotional state. Shame on you .

Mohammed hijab’s debate was epic.

Her husband is not helping her

Sid and Dina are just lost............social media generation

Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself. Rumi....

The whole point in this is that we will NEVER see their true colors. I don’t mean them any wrong but I see them simply as entertainers. And I would definitely not hold them as an example to society.

Love and respect for brother Mohammad Hijab.

That podcast was so difficult to watch because Sid never once took anything seriously. His so jarring 😑

These guys weren't made in London They were made in the royal navy

Sid and Dina are a joke tbh. Before Dina married Sid, she used to do hijab tutorials and was modest on camera, but ever since she married Sid, I've noticed that her hijab started to fade away (i.e. swearing on camera, not covering her neck and hair)

This is why it is important to choose a marriage partner at an equal level of deen or higher. You're not just choosing the parent of your child, you're also choosing the person you will become and subsequently the state of your a'maal and aakhirah.

Ali dawah is OBSESSED with the ‘sisters’

lol, That podcast guy has no respect for his wife.

I don’t understand these videos of judging someone from another video, it makes me think, as if the prophet Muhammad peace be upon him used to sit and just watch each person or each Muslim walk past and comment on what they are doing wrong or what they should be doing, and also as a girl from the youth of Islam makes me think that advice is mainly when a person sits with the other person and talks to them in a adult mature manner, not thru videos and commenting on each phrase or each movement or something in the other persons video, Islam is meant to be a loving community of people and all I see growing up and thru social media is judgement from people and other people when really on judgement day we will all be separate from each other and asked ourselves for what we did and why from Allah swt. We all need to remember no human is perfect Allah swt did not make any Human to be perfect. So leave what other people do and focus on yourselves because you’re not guaranteed to go Janaa by focusing on someone else’s life and what they do.

Dina is Sid’s wife not yours. Worry about your own wife and your akhirah and stop worrying about what theyre upto.

It’s probably her husbands influence that has weakened her attitude towards hijab. Allahu aalim

Bit like what Adam saleh did. Used Islam to get the approval and attention of Muslim viewers and then slagged that very community off.

Rename this channel _ gossiping about other people under the guise of “naseeha” whilst taking the moral high ground because you have a beard and use Arabic words here and there

I like dina, shes humble and honest with herself and her following

Sid is so low class. Living with that is hardly gonna boost your faith any time soon.

I thought the same thing when i watched it. Sid was extremely inappropriate and disgusting. The biggest issue was that

Both apparently seem to be going through an early mid-life crisis

Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, warned us from fame and money , they will harm the believe of a Muslim

make this message trending please, I actually want them to react to this because this is ace.

You people have too much time on your hands. It's unbelievable

They are basically trading their Deen for fame and money just like many others and especially those in the public eye.

There are muslim who have been made comfortable with the idea that Islam accommodates their every ideological commitment: liberalism, feminism, secularism, social justice identity politics, etc.The idea of submitting and reigning in one's emotions and sentimentality in accordance with the Sacred is completely foreign to them. The tarbiya that is so critical to spirituality and getting closer to Allah is completely absent.But Muslims can't remain sheltered forever. They slowly start realizing that things are not what they want them to be. They start resenting other Muslims and begin to lash out, calling them names: "extremist," "wahabi," "misogynist," etc.Many of them become very bitter, burn out, and some even leave Islam. For example, you probably think that that hijab (covering awrah) is a personal choice. which means that wearing it is no more or less meaningful than wearing a swimsuit.If all one cares about and celebrates is choice, then choosing to wear the hijab is equivalent to choosing to ditch it. Or choosing to wear something else entirely. It's all choice! But in reality, hijab is anything but choice. It is fard.

I am not muslim but follow them. I was very confused about how comfortable Sid is with openly talking about how no one attacks his behavior/words because he's a man. That's why he cracks the "jokes" he does.

100% Mohammed Hijab nailed it! Sid comes acroass as such a kufaar pleaser and as he said he is motivated by money! I guess he thinks that the money will roll in without the hijab. May Allah guide us all and keep us firm

If your first intention of wearing hijab was style, then perhaps Its better to wear it until your intention is only for Allah swt. Allah knows best.

I started wearing hijab few years ago and Dina kind of motivated me to feel comfortable and inspired. However, that does not mean that I follow everything that she does, I took the good and learned from it and whatever was not exactly within the Islamic guidelines, I just ignored it. We are responsible for learning on our own, I can't just close my eyes, not research or find answers and just blame it on Dina for making the choices i make. What I'm saying is that at the end of the day, we have to try to find our way by using Quran and hadith and there are plenty of Imaams out there that talk about topics that we may be unclear about so some use these youtubers is an excuse to just do what they like to do.

I was genuinely disgusted with Sids comments. Like on podcast too? He shows little respect for his wife!

LAILLAHA illallah muhummadur rasoolullah, welcome to the end times, do adahkar morning and evening to protect yourselves, remember Allah 24/7,awake , sleep , all the time, and hope for the best. May Allah guide me and the whole ummah on the true path of Islamic monotheism, give us good in the world and no less than Jannat al firdous without reckoning in the hereafter ameen...

Assalamo alaikum the basic principle that you brothers forget is to advise your muslim brother in private. Send a message to the brother privately. Im sure you can reach them because you are going by "IF he said that , IF he meant that" which shows that you dont know what is in his heart, what he understands. Perhaps the invitation you gave at the end should have been done first because just like his words can be misinterpreted so can yours as you are coming across reprimanding his actions in public. Just because his mistakes knowingly or unknowingly are done in public that doesn't give you the right to shame him in a way more on top of what he has done himself. One of the biggest problems with the youth giving dawah these days is that they lack wisdom in the approach and need a lot to learn.

Oh god, hijab is NOT an Islamic requirement. There are plenty of scholars who prove this (Khaled Zaheer, Javed Ghamdi, Shabbir Ally).

Mashaallah Ali is such a good listener. Hijab was talking for most of the time and he was sitting there listening to him. And Alhamdulillah Hijab is very good at making logical points

Oh how have I missed that beautiful intro

i can tell how living with sid really had a toll on dina

This all seems a bit too much like gossip

I really appreciated this video. Too often I see Muslim men who are showing off in various ways while their wives get criticized for the most minor thing and nobody ever bats an eye at them. Double standards are very extreme in this situation.

Why can’t you lot advise them in private -rather then criticising them online?

It seems as soon as Dina took her hijab off, Sid kind of lost the reason to respect her on social platform when he said ‘attached in another way’ and he also made another comment. To me it shows hijab demands respect and since she lost that, sid himself started making these indecent comments.

The man can influence his wife's choices. When a woman takes off her hijab after so many years of wearing it, it seems to me her husband must make her feel insecure so she needs the world to appreciate her beauty. A modest woman is a secure woman.

Is it not so sad that there are people like Ali Dawah who spend their time and efforts in pointing out what they believe to be flaws in others? Do they really believe Allah will have them stood infront of him, and be proud of their constant judgement of others? Ali Dawah, you should focus on bettering yourself and stop creating a bad image for muslims as being judgemental.

it should be titled 'reacting to sids immodesty' lol. No need to sugar coat that this video is a critique.

You Ali Dawah, really need to stop this! Leave this family be and focus on real issues. You want to give them "guidance", instead of embarassing and using Dina as a material to gain views.....speak to them privately! You're taking this too far now. No offence, but you DO display signs of extremism sometimes.

These small things lead to the “leaving of Islam” and it all starts with this kind of stuff. May Allah guide them

I think Sid is not properly explaining what he means, I feel what he is saying is his akhlaq is better now. Some people when they become religious they become harsh towards others and Sid could be mistaking not being harsh to not being on deen. Allah knows best.

Only watched the first 5 minute and I love your approach. So balanced and easy! This is Deen

Let's make dua for both of them, because people say and do Weird things as we get tested

Mohamed Hijab makes my Imaan stronger.

Surah 24 An-Nur, Ayat 26-26 (24:26) Corrupt women are for corrupt men, and corrupt men for corrupt women. Good women are for good men, and good men for good women. They are innocent of the calumnies people utter.22 There shall be forgiveness for them and a generous provision.

As a revert a got such a calming and loving peace when I started wearing my hijab 🧕🏽 so much so that I never took it off since I’ve started wearing it no matter what my family or friends said. That’s the only thing I don’t understand about girls that take off their hijab, is it because they never got the peace they were supposed to feel? Like I genuinely don’t get it.

I don’t understand why two grown up men stand hier and comments and judges the decision of a grown women? How about you 2 find a real job

I don't know the intention of the video but i believe its gonna only push them further from deen. Can be perceived as provocative

I’m so thankful that I grew up with a Muslim family who allowed me to be me. I wore the hijab and then took it off, then wore it and then took it off. I received no “obvious” judgment. We all have our own-journey. It’s important to just be there for one another. Build each other up and be there for one another 🙂 trust me, beating a Muslim lady up for not wearing the hijab is hurtful. Some people don’t wear it because they get harassed daily for it so they are afraid to wear it. Let’s just be positive and there for each other! 🙂

i love seeing the disgust and disappointment in brother hijabs face, our brother is honest. We don't have to put this fake nicey nicey face on all the time. When people do dumb stuff like this the gloves need to come off.

I was thinking the same of Sid’s entire behavior and reaction in the podcast.

Asalamo alikom to all Bros/sisters here first thing first from what I can see her husband doesnt seem to be micht of a support for her about her hijab. I don't know but, sister dina May Allah guide her and guide all of us, no one in this earth has the right to point fingers at anyone or talk about her were not angles our eman can go upper and down. But the way sister dina talks in this video she still shows and comes across modest and having (hayaa) so she needs people to support her and not talk about her bcoz Allah knows everyone heart. Allah looks at the heart and not the appearence,yes Allah has said to us beleiving women to cover ourself modestly but hooefully Allah can b sister dina support and help her through her struggles. This Life Is a test so May Allah help us get through it succesfuly ameen. Salaam to all

The way Dina and Sid talk, you can see that they been really different upbringing.

But his mum wears hijab

I think you both failed tbh to give proper advise.what it looks like to guys passing judgement on a man and wife who put their story online for the world to see. You guys should’ve kept it discreet and should’ve reached out to the SID and give him advise privately. It doesn’t help you guys publicly more or less tell he is wrong etc. You shouldn’t make video like this especially in your own community what u have done is probably pushed him away. A response video for a video isn’t the right away. Talk to him privately via txt or whatever

Damn.... how do you talk to your wife like that in front of the world? That’s disgusting fam. Muslim men should always respect their wives. What happened to the real men? Shout out to her for standing her ground.

Dina could have done better in her marriage. Sid isn't a bad person, quite the opposite, but nevertheless Dina is someone from at least a moderately practising family. Whilst sid is from a typical desi cultural background, that is pretty apparent. May Allah guide all of us, reminder to myself first and foremost.

I'm SO glad that u touched on the fact on how sid was in this podcast

May Allah guide them.

Subhannallah the way you both speak and present the issue in such a non judgemental way and the excuses you give and respect and sincerity with which you speak, it’s honourable. My respect for you br Ali Dawah has really increased. May Allah Place Tawfeeq in your efforts and allow people to appreciate the nature from where you come

No one should judge no one,except allah.....don’t like when ppl talk abt other ppl no need...be kind to one another ❤️

Glad to at least see people being kind and not spewing hatred toward Dina for her choice. This is encouraging.

It’s a shame really... Look at Dina’s older videos and you can see she has a normal hijab and slowly through the years taking piece by piece. Which later changed to a long scarf, then a short scarf then she eventually just got rid of it completely probably from outside influences.🙁

Hi guys, I've been a social media follower of Dina for a very long time, about six years now. Firstly just a very quick comment that Dina started her journey as a (now) influencer in a very temperamental part of anyones life. In that age everything is uncertain, and you have just been coming into your own and trying to figure not only yourself but also life out. Factoring this with all that she has been through the past few years (change of and growth in career, marriage, children and other life decisions) will of course result her into coming into her own in a very quick manner. And as part of that journey, are both right and wrong steps, which is exactly what happens with every single on of us, muslim or not. Now moving onto my main point with Sid's comments on being "on the dean". As I've mentioned I've followed Dina even before she met Sid, so I am well aware of every detail about their published lives together. When Sid said this comment, i believe he means the cultural deen. Now please before halting me say bismillah, have some patience and hear me out. When you are young, and are trying to stay on the dean and be religious, a large part of that comes not only from your self-study and endevours, but also largely from your family and culture. We all know about the faults of our cultures, whether it be asian, arab etc. We all have things which are normal within our culture but go directly against the dean, like marrying a woman out of her will as just one but very common example in many muslim nations. So this being said, perhaps what Sid meant was that he had the religiousness, however was influenced by these "bad" cultural norms. And now more recently, he has developed more, realized that these cultural norms are wrong, but still has the religious values from the quran and hadith. Part of his journey now, is learning about the dean, however more importantly (because this would be something completely new to him) to know how to apply this dean WITHOUT any cultural bias, but just strictly based on what islam deems as right or wrong. Ofcourse, this would take a while, because you have to breakaway from what helped mold who you are, and form a whole new كيان or 'self of being' all on your own. I hope this makes sense and helps clarify a few things. I have only made this comment, because I am going through this myself, trying my very best in being a better muslim and insha'allah we will all be guided to the right path. ameen. Best blessings, love, and wishes for a stronger imaan and taqwaa to all my brothers and sisters.

His name is not sid it’s sidaqque, they’re both trying to modernise Islam and change it. It will never happen

Can we PLEASE NOT single and call people’s faults out like in this video.... let people be! Including our brothers!!! Only Allah has the right to judge and no we are not that gullible! We will not follow blindly!

The way Dina changed subahanAllah. Muhammad Hijab had very valid points

look ur making a video about some body else and his wife. ur involving urself when it's there business. it's nobody's business. people judge some much in this world. life is a journey nobody's perfect. it's her life. let them be

Thank you for this. Sid's behaviour was atrocious and Dina was visibly fed up with it...I had to force myself to continue watching just for Dina's sake. Every video and discussion I've seen since has had Dina in the spotlight with not a word about Sid's shameful behaviour. I'm glad some people have their priorities straight.

This is so ACCURATE. People need to realised HAYAA (modesty) comes from within too, it is deeper than just headscarf. I also feel like fame and money has gotten to them both as a couple. Many 'muslims' of this generation are following western society footsteps, forgetting their true beliefs. We muslims need to hold onto our values, morals, beliefs and rules regardless of society changes. We should NOT make alterations to commandments from ALLAH (swt) in order to try 'fit' in and adapt with western society. May Allah (swt) protect us all.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sid turns around one day and claims to be Agnostic because he is headed in that path. Dina hasn't lost her inner modesty, thanks to her upbringing.

Such a balanced and insightful talk. Beautiful advice. My favourite brothers to watch. May Allah reward you guys.

People will do anything for fame. Those two, Dina and Sid have run out if ideas. Just like Adam Saleh, they don't care for morals, dignity or have a limit. I don't watch them because i find them cringing.

Could this not have been done more privately for Dina or Sid's sake?

Thankfully my children are small yet but I would not allow them to follow and excessively watch any youtubers to the point where they become so emotionally involved in their lives, like people are nowadays. It's REALLY unhealthy. There's nothing worse than spending hours watching mundane trash that has absolutely no benefit and to have knowledge of little things about the lives of oversharing plonkers who then whine when these followers - rightly or wrongly - feel they have a say in the youtuber's life decisions. Believe it or not but there was a time when social media didn't exist and people survived.

In terms of foul language sadly I think it’s just becoming the norm. Many people would find Sid’s comments quite humorous.
