I spent one full month studying my religion, Islam, Alhamdulillah.

Adverbs of degree

I talked to religious people and came all the way to the three holiest places in Islam, to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, Medina and even Jerusalem.

And in Mecca, for the first time in my life, life, I shaved my head completely.

I am on a six month challenge to study the top six religions.

Buddhism, Hinduism, Atheism, Judaism, Christianity.

But this religion I did not learn from a sheikh.

I'm Nusair's mom and I'm proud to share with you our Islam.

There are more than 2 billion of us in every country in the world.

But it all started right here in Saudi Arabia on top of this exact mountain in a cave.

In a cave that looks something like this.

Islam was revealed to Prophet Muhammad by an angel.

While he was sitting in the cave, the angel said the first word in Islam.

Read the Quran, read to understand, read to disc.

And so I read about Islam and the first thing I learned is discipline.

Very few people know this, but Islam is the religion of discipline.

Every day, Every morning for 30 years, I saw my mother wake up at 5am no matter how tired or sick or busy she was, she woke up before the sun to pray to God.

Billions of Muslims pray five times a day, every day for their entire life.

This level of discipline does not exist anywhere else.

Before every prayer, Muslims have to be clean by washing their feet, hands and head multiple times a day.

Muslims are not just committed to God, they are committed to cleanliness.

According to Prophet Muhammad, cleanliness is half the faith.

Every year, Muslims fast for, for one month.

We don't eat anything or drink anything from sunrise until sunset.

And I'm telling you it's hard, especially when it's hot outside.

In fact, some Muslims are so committed that they memorize the entire Quran word for word, the entire book.

In all of her family members and all of her friends.

These are the same qualities they teach you at Harvard Business School.

Prophet Muhammad famously said, the most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are consistent, even if they are small.

Many people ask me, how did you make a thousand videos in a thousand days?

Or how do you never miss a gym or a Monday meeting?

And I think the answer comes from, from here.

My discipline and commitment comes from Islam.

If my mom can pray every day for 30 years, five times a day, and

commit to fasting and cleanliness, then I can make a one minute video and I can go to the gym.

The second thing I learned in Islam is even more powerful.

And I learned it right here at a barber shop in Mecca.

Every year, Muslims from around the world come to Mecca to perform pilgrimage.

And here we are all equal in front of God.

We get rid of our fancy clothes and go from this to this.

We wear only two white sheets, the clothes all Muslims wear when they are buried.

And men, they shave their entire head to cleanse ourselves from all sin.

We remove all social differences between us.

We look the same because in front of God, we are the same.

No one cares if you're a CEO or a security guard.

No one cares if you're American or Pakistani or German.

Prophet Muhammad said, no white is superior to black and no black is superior to white.

None have superiority over another except by piety and good action.

Look at how many people are here, all doing the same thing from a hundred countries.

In Mecca, I circled around the Kaaba, the house of God built by Prophet Abraham.

And I ran across the mountains Safa and Marwah.

I drank the holy Zamzam water, so delicious.

I felt a connection to people I never would have met.
