From Year 7… to grown men walking the same streets of Harlesden. Me and Ali go way back — not just as school friends, but as brothers bonded by something deeper. What brought us together back then… And what kept us together all these years… Al-Islam. We shared the same classrooms, the same streets, the same dreams… And one thing we always had in common — the love for sports. We spent more than 7 hours a day playing football and mastering the sport. Lol when I think back at it now we were dedicated players to the game of football hence why we reached so far and ma sha Allah Ali continued and went on to play for his national team Somalia Allahuma barik. We grew up in a time where being a child meant actually being present. No social media. No distractions. Just real moments… real laughter… real friendship. We didn’t document everything… Because we were too busy living it. Today we walk the same roads — but as men. Reflecting… reminiscing… grateful. Harlesden raised us. Islam united us. Brotherhood. Faith. Loyalty. That’s what made us… And that’s what still keeps us. 🎬 Extra content from the “No Way Out” documentary — more to come. #islam #brotherhood #muslim #football
