oh it says she’s alone a chance to gain
00:05
removed and spend on you Salaam alaikum
00:11
and welcome back now before we went to
00:14
the break we briefly touched upon those
00:15
people who can’t pray in the sense of
00:19
they can no longer kneel down and
00:20
prostrate know obviously we as Muslims
00:22
know that there’s not really anything
00:25
quite like the feeling of when you’re in
00:27
frustration it’s an amazing experience
00:28
and me as a Muslim when I was very
00:31
interested in becoming a Muslim I went
00:33
with some school friends and that was
00:34
something that really kind of had an
00:36
effect on me was that whole motion of
00:38
going down with their body n being on
00:40
the floor in complete submission to
00:42
Allah so some people can’t do that and
00:45
some people have knee issues problems of
00:47
their knees and they end up saying I
00:49
just can’t pray I have to pray in a
00:51
chair so we have a we have brought with
00:54
us brother nah dude sorry sorry sonica
00:57
sonica anthem exactly for coming on now
00:59
you have a what you’re gonna obviously i
01:01
won’t i won’t give it away quite yet you
01:02
have some kind of product that can help
01:06
people who have issues kneeling down and
01:08
have maybe had some on a rheumatism
01:11
arthritis maybe some knee operations i’m
01:13
kind of so what is this product sure our
01:16
product is it’s the world’s first
01:19
physiological prayer mat and it helps
01:21
people with three basic things that
01:22
helps relieve pain improve partial
01:24
support and boost energy and the way it
01:26
does that is we spent five years in
01:28
research and development working with an
01:31
ex NASA scientist who’s on our R&D; team
01:33
and we basically sure x NASA yes we have
01:37
an ex-nun I just interesting because
01:39
you’re wondering everyone’s thinking
01:40
what’s the NASA got to do with prayer
01:42
mat so that this is an interesting point
01:43
well they have there’s two basic space
01:46
technologies that we use that are used
01:48
in astronaut suits originally and where
01:50
the 43rd company actually ever in
01:52
history to be certified officially by
01:54
NASA as a space technology company so
01:56
the two types of space technology we use
01:58
is one is the high-performance materials
02:01
which were use an astronaut suits
02:03
original deal with pressure heat
02:05
transfer and geforce the second one is
02:08
an antimicrobial technology that was
02:10
used to actually protect astronauts from
02:12
fungus bacteria
02:13
dust and other microbes today we use
02:16
that in the fabric there to also prevent
02:18
from respiratory health problems that
02:20
may exist and we’re also applying our
02:21
technology to some private mosques today
02:23
who want to antimicrobial their carpets
02:26
to keep people hygienic ly safe or
02:28
healthy as they pray and obviously we
02:31
can see on the on the TV maybe you can
02:33
explain to us what we’re seeing him the
02:35
viewers are seeing sure well the product
02:37
is made of five layers the magic happens
02:39
in the middle the top of the the the
02:42
very very top is what we call the
02:44
microfiber top that’s where the
02:45
antimicrobial technology is the layer
02:48
underneath that is a weight absorption
02:49
layer which actually absorbs your weight
02:51
the middle layer is a weight transfer
02:53
grid that actually works between the two
02:55
sets a ratio between the layer just
02:57
beneath it which is called a
02:58
weight-bearing so the weight bearing and
03:00
the weight absorption lawyers do the
03:01
exact opposite one will hug you and the
03:03
other will push against you when the two
03:05
combined with the middle weight transfer
03:08
layer it prevents from pressure relieves
03:12
pressure improves your posture and by
03:15
doing that it improves the blood flow in
03:17
the body and gives you a boost of energy
03:18
and finally at the very bottom we have a
03:20
anti slip it does the product will not
03:23
actually move I believe it or not there
03:24
are several people have injuries because
03:25
they are on slippery surfaces it could
03:27
be on marble and ceramics and with
03:29
normal fabric Matthew just step on you
03:31
can slip so the whole thing stays in one
03:33
place doesn’t move so I mean it’s you
03:37
know we hear many many there’s always
03:39
many sales pictures and pictures and
03:41
many marketing campaigns on on products
03:44
but have you had I mean mashallah from
03:48
what I’ve heard you you know this is
03:49
taken off pretty well I mean you’ve
03:51
you’ve had coverage on Sky News
03:53
Huffington Post product I believe even
03:56
newspapers like the independent in the
03:57
UK which they’d actually pick it up on
04:00
the product themselves and mentioned as
04:02
a very unique yeah product but what kind
04:05
of feedback have you had from because
04:08
there may be some watching this now and
04:09
you know the ultimate goal behind us
04:13
showing this is foot from our aspect on
04:16
our show is to hopefully put back into
04:19
someone who can no longer feel that
04:21
feeling of prostration hopefully now
04:23
somebody may be able to buy this product
04:24
and get that
04:26
eating back so have you had testimonials
04:29
that have come back to you but you know
04:31
where people really couldn’t kneel down
04:33
and now they can well it’s a Panama I
04:35
mean one of the most amazing things
04:37
about what we do is when we get our
04:39
customers that cop or make dua for us
04:40
we’ve helped change people’s lives
04:42
people have had car accidents people
04:44
have had sports injuries people who have
04:46
had unusual diseases we’ve actually
04:48
never heard of things like arthritis
04:49
diabetes people who have some
04:51
physiological or some issue preventing
04:54
them from touching the ground and and
04:56
getting into full prostration and these
04:58
stories that we get when people call up
04:59
a McDonald eyes especially with older
05:03
people giving them hope you know giving
05:05
the idea that I can touch the ground
05:07
that I can reconnect with God and this
05:09
technology that was used in space can
05:11
now help me do that in my in the in the
05:13
comfort of my own bedroom or living room
05:16
we’ve helped quite a few people sure you
05:20
one question I believe you mentioned
05:23
this but I want you to refresh my memory
05:24
this is the maybe the viewers conceded
05:27
since it says certified space technology
05:29
and this is what you mentioned I believe
05:31
yes this is what I believe you mentioned
05:34
that how many companies you sell in the
05:36
world only have this certified space
05:38
technology we’re the 43rd company ever
05:40
in all of NASA’s yeah in NASA’s history
05:43
of 60 years of technology transfer to
05:45
the private sector they’ve done about
05:47
50,000 technology transfers throughout
05:50
all of the history of NASA and we’re one
05:53
of the lucky few organizations have been
05:55
recognized by them through the transfer
05:56
technology program to have successfully
05:59
implemented space technology in a
06:01
greater and universal usage one of
06:04
NASA’s objectives is to embed a human
06:06
mankind and improve the world and they
06:10
look at us as one of these organizations
06:12
that they can look at and help others
06:14
aspire to helping improve the world by
06:16
bringing technology to helping people
06:18
pray better well I know that you’ve
06:20
obviously who do who have as d passing
06:22
by he’s it he’ll be he’ll be here
06:23
full-time next week my other host but
06:26
he’s the first time working for a long
06:28
time yeah that was the original show I
06:30
daresay that was the good old days and I
06:33
think that was a much better show but
06:34
hamdillah but so you have a question for
06:36
brother knowledge actually
06:37
I hope it’s all about you know you’re
06:39
both Canadian or talk about Tim Hortons
06:41
right there that’s for after the show
06:44
there seems to be a technology with your
06:47
with Gabriel’s Mike maybe you can I
06:49
don’t know if they can hear him but
06:50
maybe if you can language midi can cook
06:53
if it’s not a long question you can tell
06:54
me and i can tell him so i was going to
06:57
ask how much does it in terms of time
07:00
making one of these how long does it
07:02
take to make one and what’s the price of
07:04
one of these so yet the the time it
07:07
involves in making a product like this
07:08
and what kind of price with the consumer
07:10
have to pay and if it is it expensive
07:13
you know why should they pay that much
07:15
isn’t that a bit overpriced for if it is
07:17
overpriced yeah seems of a question well
07:19
me our rd process to develop this
07:21
literally took five years and we we do
07:24
someone’s called muslim physiology which
07:26
we looked at the physiology of the
07:28
muslim body which is different than
07:29
those who pray and those who do not pray
07:31
and we made profound discoveries and
07:33
that’s how we actually develop this so
07:35
through that process we didn’t just
07:37
implement the development of this
07:39
product but we also implemented a muslim
07:41
physiology workshop which we work with
07:43
our customers and other people to
07:44
educate them about how to overcome some
07:47
of the common physiological issues that
07:48
we all face and helping improve our
07:50
spirituality so things like fifty two
07:52
percent of muscles we found suffer from
07:54
knee problems not because of prayer but
07:56
because of the lifestyle problems around
07:58
us that impact us when we try to pray so
08:00
we we sit down we talk about these
08:02
things and we give them scientifically
08:04
proven activities that we’ve done with
08:06
our medical team on how to overcome some
08:08
of these issues today our product we
08:11
sell in 35 countries around the world
08:13
our global global standard price is
08:15
about 300 US dollars depending on which
08:17
market you’re in but that’s the sort of
08:19
average global price for the product
08:20
yeah it’s really important remember that
08:23
this this is a this is a technology
08:25
product it’s not a it’s not it’s not a
08:28
normal mat like you’ve got in front of
08:29
you here you’ve got the you know your
08:31
traditional mat which is like the 99
08:32
percent of what people have the the
08:34
sponge mat that somebody would buy and
08:36
believe that they can use that it would
08:37
actually help them in you’ve got your
08:39
medical Matt we’ve also got a really
08:41
interesting feature who knows there
08:42
there’s a QR code and if you use your
08:44
mobile anywhere in the world when you
08:45
scan the mat you can get prayer time so
08:48
we anywhere you go in the world we make
08:49
sure you can get your prayer time you
08:51
and we’re on the map right there on the
08:52
tag there there’s a QR code you just put
08:54
your you could I mean I know you gave me
08:57
one of those way back so this is the was
08:59
even my one from about a couple of years
09:01
back also has that bulk of all of them
09:03
have it yes yeah I mean it was like a
09:09
cut remember that the European allergy
09:12
oh yes it’s like the carrier pigeon and
09:14
then you have the graham bell’s phone
09:15
and then your prayer mat is like that
09:16
there there’s no free marketing only he
09:19
gets a free multi it’s like a smartphone
09:22
but yeah I mean it is I mean I
09:24
personally have had one of those I mean
09:25
I recently not necessary knee injuries
09:28
maybe it’s not relevant but I had a nice
09:30
to let someone have a hip injury but I
09:32
never thought of it and unfortunately
09:33
because it you know generally speaking I
09:35
don’t need to use on a daily basis but I
09:36
remember when you gave it to me I did
09:39
actually use it and it was very
09:42
comfortable and I believe either i don’t
09:46
have the mat anymore possibly maybe my
09:48
wife why i’m giving it to my mother on
09:49
her because I remember my mother will or
09:50
tried it being up elderly and she felt a
09:54
real comfort in doing it you know that
09:56
she’s generally okay but that the
09:58
generally pain you getting your knees in
10:00
old age yeah she thought a big
10:02
difference so I I can you know testify
10:05
in the sense of it is really really even
10:08
for an average person very nice and soft
10:09
and and of course somebody may ask but
10:12
you know if this is kind of gel and
10:14
absorbent is there any Sharia aspect and
10:16
you’ve had various Sharia councils
10:17
having i think in bahrain and yes the
10:19
places that have covered it from the
10:21
Sharia aspects yes aspects that even if
10:23
you’re slightly absorbing it has no
10:25
issue on your prayer you’re not sinking
10:26
your heads not going lower than your
10:28
body and all that kind of stuff yeah
10:30
yeah we we went through an excel and
10:32
extensive consultation with several
10:34
experts around the world on this
10:35
particular matter but what’s interesting
10:37
that you pointed out is that a large
10:39
part of our customers are actually
10:40
mothers and mothers are a big part of
10:42
what we do and how how this product
10:45
really ends up is usually a son or
10:47
daughter will end up buying it for the
10:49
mother who then will adapt the product
10:50
across the family and it’s quite amazing
10:53
when we see how the mother daughter or
10:55
son relationship actually evolves and
10:58
the dynamics over something like this
11:00
when you know that your mother is making
11:02
do after you frankly because you’ve made
11:04
it easier
11:04
and so Pamela the stories that we hear
11:06
from our customers is just it’s it’s
11:09
mind-blowing mind-blowing yeah Jellico
11:13
this brings this brings in mind the
11:15
hadith of the Prophet Muhammad I send
11:16
them however come with vidya sinha
11:19
however comes with a never good
11:21
innovation because some people believe
11:23
we’ve got in a good innovation in the in
11:26
the in there is no but the problem is in
11:29
the medic whoever commerce something
11:31
good in order to facilitate like the
11:33
loudspeaker in the mosque like oh you
11:35
know the the most have the Quran for the
11:37
blind people yeah that’s it be dressing
11:39
and this when you brought that in a test
11:41
video hasten and the people who are
11:45
benefiting that facility and the one who
11:48
initiated now innovating that then he
11:50
get the reward as well so he asked a
11:52
lots of her tonight it was all this
11:54
image and SNL just bring up by having
11:56
the right intention you know Oh to wait
11:57
this is for Allah and then like he said
12:00
when all those people imagine you know
12:02
how many of you so generally well we’ve
12:05
sold thousands I mean internally our
12:07
KPIs that can be called the Hassan
12:09
autometer and we measure our performance
12:10
on the basis of hassle at not on how
12:12
much we’ve actually sold and this is how
12:14
we get everybody in our supply chain
12:16
aligned with our values and this is how
12:19
we work with our partners and that’s
12:20
amazing I think any it’s not just that
12:23
even you have a guy obviously you know
12:25
this obviously as we know it relates on
12:27
the intention but you know we judge that
12:29
everyone has the pure intention so you
12:30
have your graphic designer who’s doing
12:32
some design you have a maybe you have
12:34
someone who dis designed the box I mean
12:36
this is obviously this is the box here
12:38
isn’t it yeah I’ll try and hold it in a
12:40
way that so you have this simple box so
12:42
you have a guy now who’s designed this
12:43
box showing some images and every time
12:47
someone prays get reward you could have
12:50
a guy who says you know I’ve designed
12:52
this style of handle something that lets
12:54
a lot of people don’t realize in many
12:55
things you know like when there’s an
12:57
islamic event you have a guy who stands
12:58
as a security guard he’s a volunteer if
13:01
a volunteer who goes in to clean the
13:02
toilets and what people you know tend to
13:05
forget is that person who volunteered
13:07
with the right intention for the cause
13:10
is cleaning he’s whopping a he’s mopping
13:12
a toilet floor but he’s getting the
13:13
rules of all those people have listened
13:15
to the lecturer maybe have become muslim
13:17
maybe have started to prague
13:19
become better muslims and that just goes
13:20
on into maybe until he and they die just
13:23
because and you just mopping the toilets
13:24
but his intention was I want to keep
13:26
this place clean because this is an
13:27
islamic event to please our last
13:28
imagined you know it’s a very good
13:31
product at the same time unless yeah the
13:32
tiniest things do like we have a lot of
13:33
non-muslims that work with us to handle
13:35
ax and we explain them the concept nay
13:37
they latch on to it quite quickly and
13:39
surprising we have a lot of non-muslims
13:41
who buy our product I don’t know one of
13:43
the most surprising stories was in our
13:44
early days we got a customer in Ukraine
13:46
and we follow up with all our customers
13:48
and we had a conversation with them I we
13:51
knew who wasn’t Muslim but he took it to
13:53
his church because they pray as one on
13:54
their knees and they had no solution for
13:56
their knees and he told me is like I
13:58
didn’t know you guys can do something
13:59
like that and I thought he meant us as a
14:00
company I said we’re an innovation I
14:01
said no I mean you must let you haven’t
14:02
really been innovating I said well
14:04
things are turning around actually I
14:05
want to interject and say something
14:07
because interestingly left the hood but
14:10
tomorrow is about innovation and
14:12
invention that’s the topic so I was like
14:14
I mean it seems a good example now at
14:16
the same time he gets more free market
14:18
exact times five it’s a good animation
14:20
no it is I mean that the thing is that
14:22
really when we look right now in the
14:23
Muslim world and we look at our history
14:25
we’re still living in the past rack a
14:26
lot of us still say you know all back in
14:29
the days we used to do this back in this
14:30
the Muslim on my students and the loose
14:32
you know in Spain ways to do this we
14:34
should be at the forefront of innovation
14:36
and discoveries and medical you know you
14:38
have the Almanac and so many things
14:39
right but these days it’s you know let’s
14:42
say we’re taking a back seat we can say
14:44
right but i think the things are
14:46
changing around things you know i think
14:47
we can come back and have that sharia
14:49
aspect right because a lot of times okay
14:52
the muslims are doing things but there’s
14:53
nothing really islamic involved in yes
14:55
they’re they’re building or they’re
14:56
developing but not in line with the the
15:00
concept of the sharia but something like
15:01
this right i mean it’s an inspirational
15:03
you’re probably one of the if not the
15:04
only Muslim company who is a certified
15:06
space technology so that itself are your
15:09
pioneering and that in that in that
15:11
sense and you’re up there with the
15:12
people message now we put it on a couple
15:14
of minutes left there what they were
15:14
just showing the videos we were talking
15:16
and it had a fellow Canadian dr. Shabbir
15:18
Ali yes and obviously we couldn’t hear
15:21
but he was saying something he’s he also
15:22
somebody who’s used your product yes yes
15:25

15:27
the idea again about innovation and how
15:29
innovation will be used to help progress
15:31
us overall
15:32
in our lifestyles them one of the things
15:34
we did in in collaboration with NASA’s
15:36
we started something called get to space
15:37
com which is and we we say it’s designed
15:40
to help two billion people to inspire
15:41
them to go to space and we use facts
15:44
about space and contribution of Muslims
15:46
to space which are actually quite
15:47
significant and surprising in many cases
15:49
and we use that to promote people remind
15:52
them of the past but also let them know
15:54
that in context today you can still be
15:56
an innovator and we want to inspire
15:58
Muslims to innovate and bring great
16:00
things to Muslim consumers at all levels
16:03
we’ve got a couple of minutes left but
16:05

16:28
lot of really interesting things I mean
16:29
we have some really break through things
16:31
that will come very soon that are still
16:33
related to physiology and Muslim
16:35
lifestyle one of our next steps is that
16:37
we’re going to be working with a lot of
16:38
private markets mosques to do the
16:40
antimicrobial inside the mosque to help
16:42
protect against respiratory problems so
16:45
a lot of private mosque owner’s express
16:47
a great interest in it we’re working
16:48
with them today that’s one of our next
16:50
projects get the anthemic robot them
16:52

16:54
there’s you have something we know it’s
16:55
not messy but what’s the problem but
16:56
there are many people especially in
16:57
modern day with the lifestyle with the
16:59
environment that you are getting
17:01
allergies and asthma all the time and
17:03
sometimes whether you know carpets no
17:06
matter how clean they are they pick up
17:07
dust particles the average person no
17:09
problem but for the one and every 100
17:11
people they get a asthma attack they get
17:14
allergy they get blocked up at a sore
17:15
throat so that does it is a big
17:18
difference too many people it’s not
17:19
something which isn’t you know yeah my
17:22
father-in-law’s ones up he actually has
17:23
full-blown asthma because he’s been
17:25
using sponge mats for a while when I
17:27
explain him that the dust mites actually
17:28
grown and come through the fabric and
17:30
your breathing that every time you go
17:31
down then use like I didn’t know that
17:33
and we educate people about that and
17:34
that doesn’t mean like gets scared no
17:36
it’s about you know keeping it clean
17:37
right is it clean you know just because
17:39
it’s there and you putting it away I’m
17:41
