As-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullah
From being shot 9 times and being involved in a gang to witnessing the murders of his parents and many friends, Napoleon, Tupac’s friend and ex-music partner in the Outlawz tells his story from the gangster lifestyle to practising Islam.
This video is recommended for all to watch especially our youth who have been caught up in the ‘thug lifestyle’ and the music industry.
From someone who can honestly say he’s been there, done that… take some sincere advice from the brother.
Hope it benefits all inshaa’Allaah

Jazaakillaahu khayran.
Do you have a downloadable link for the video? A brother was hoping to download it and burn it onto CDs for some younger brothers insha’Allaah.

Taalibul ‘Ilm, I just sent off an email regarding that. Inshaa’Allah if I get a downloadable link back I’ll be sure to pass it on.
Yusuf, I think something’s happened to WordPress’s compatibility with Youtube videos. I’ve checked out other blogs on here and they all have the same problem. Inshaa’Allah, it should be fixed soon.

[...] On a side note, Watch this complete video. It is very refreshing for our confused rich-famous/ghetto lifestyle infested Ummah. Brother Napoleon from Outlawz really breaks it down simple & straight forward… ghetto sophistication, he’s mad precise [so don’t worry if u got ADD] may Allah swt bless him and guide to the path of Jihaad fee sabeelillah, and guide our youth along with Him. Aameen. inshAllah! He would make a great leader. [...]

assalaamu ‘alaykum wa rahmatullaah,
I hope that other people will give them insperation and better view about Islam. I did but unfortunatlly I’m still fighting with my self. I used to do bad things and I have listen a lot to Rap, asspecially 2pac. I’v followed the whole story From A to Z. My whole life was Streetwise thinking. Hard and no love,,…… Now that I’m hearing and seeing Napoleon gave me a good feeling about it all. I want to change my life Inshallah.
Keep it going brother.!!!May ALLAH give you more strength to help the falling younger brothers and sisters. Ghayr inshallah
Greeting from Holland, Rotterdam
Ps. Do you know were and when we can see and hear Napoleon (Meeting or someting like the video).

Wa `alaykumusalaam wa rahmatullaah
Jazaak’Allaahu khayran for your input, and may Allaah reward you well, and allow you and us to progress in our Deen. Islam has ranks and degrees which a believer can progress through, and it’s never too late to recitify your affairs.
Although it does require (amongst other things) some initial struggle, sacrifice, repentance and sincerity, you just have to be strong and keep at it, seeking the Help of Allaah `azza wa jall. If you want to turn your life around, then there is no time like the present. May Allaah aid you in your affairs.
As for where you can contact br. Napoleon, then he has a website as mentioned above:
http://www.almizaanpubs.com
Currently I believe he’s doing various talks and events around the UK. If you contact him or the brothers he works with, maybe he can travel to other parts of Europe like where you are.
