History[edit]
His first videos on YouTube were nasheed videos where he would just add the visuals. It was through this he worked with Muslim Belal with his early nasheeds from the Pray Hard album. He then started working with Roadside2islam editing short films and interviews, he also made a few appearances on the channel.
In 2013 he started the Smile2jannah YouTube channel. The name was inspired by the act the Prophet (s.a.w) was said to do a lot, which is “smiling”, and the “Jannah” part was the eventual objective of the channel through teaching and educating. The early videos were Islamic themed comedy sketches. He did his own editing and filming as many YouTubers have to do initially. He did other styles of videos such as Vlogs and reaction videos. After reaching 100k subscribers he started covering more political issues, being inspired by the Daily Show format and comedians like George Carlin and Russel Brand.
