Senegal head coach Pape Thiaw has become widely discussed in America because of a statement he made during a press conference.
Journalist:
“Today, there were very strong winds in the state of New Jersey, and security officials advised members of the delegation not to go outside for your own safety. Why did you go out to perform the prayer?”
Pape Thiaw:
“Is there anything more important than prayer? I do not think that is your concern. You fear the wind, while we fear Allah, the One who created the wind. We came here for a game of entertainment, yet we have forgotten that we were created to worship Allah.
Even if the @FIFAWorldCup World Cup final were being played today and we were one of the finalist teams, we would still go out to perform the Jummah prayer, even if it meant losing the championship.
Do not lecture us about the rituals and obligations of our religion.”
🚨Reporter asks Arda Güler which country he will be supporting to win the World Cup:
🎙️ Reporter:
“Arda, if Türkiye don’t win the World Cup, which country would you like to see become champions?”
🗣️ Arda Güler:
“First of all, I hope Türkiye are the ones lifting the trophy.
That’s the dream for every Turkish player.
But if that doesn’t happen, I’d probably support Portugal.”
🎙️ Reporter:
“Why Portugal?”
🗣️ Arda Güler:
“Because I’ve always admired their football culture and the players they’ve produced over the years.
They have a great balance of experience and young talent.
And of course, Cristiano Ronaldo has inspired an entire generation of footballers.
What he has achieved for both club and country is incredible.
To see him win a World Cup would be a special moment for football.
So if Türkiye can’t do it, I’d be happy to see Portugal become champions”.

Reciting Surah Al-Mulk every night protects you from the punishment of the grave. Now imagine you shared this reminder and someone started acting on it—you’d be earning reward every single night they recite it too.
Almighty. Protect us from the evil eye; people who often pry into our personal lives, especially those who don’t wish us well and want to see us fail. Aameen.
Feeling down and getting impatient with life’s tests? There is always someone out there who has it worse than you. The Almighty has blessed you with more than you could ever ask for. Always be grateful and He will grant you more.
