We Were Afraid to Travel to the Middle East...

- In today's Qatar vlog we venture out to the sand dunes outside of Doha, Qatar and we eat local food for the very first time at a restaurant called Afghan Brothers. Both experiences were really eye opening and forced us to reflect on how we have been taught to think about the entire region of the Middle East.

American here, I used to live in the UAE and I felt a lot safer there than in the US.
Of course I was born and raised in dubai UAE & SHARJAH
🇦🇪 KSA AND QATAR ARE THE SAFEST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD
Thank you for your kind words , I hope you get knew the real Islam rather than what western media show
Same here.
Not only UAE or KSA every Muslim country and community is always safe for U. We Muslims deeply believe that guest comes with as blessing from Allah (God).So when u visit any Muslim country around the world obviously experience this kind of friendy atmosphere ❤️
@@evergreenbd4849 As a person who used to live in UAE as well, I must say sorry, but to be honest, not every all muslim countries are safe. For example, in my country, Indonesia, altough majority is Muslims, but we cannot expect that the situations are 100% the same with UAE, Saudi or Qatar.
I'm not saying that Indonesia is not safe at all, it's just not 100% safe as well like in Gulf countries.
As a Muslim watching this, i am laughing and smiling at the family trying to figure out how to eat with their hands 😀
You guyz are hilarious 🌷😊
And we always wash our hands before eating, we say Bismillah which means we eat in the name of God and then we eat with our right hand 😊
And say Alhamdulillah and wash hands after eating.
Bismilah
@@la3044 as you said it's a cultural thing, yes not all muslim countries use their hands but most Arab countries do and at the very least when it's a traditional dish, you can always use a knife, fork... but when you have bread and sauce it's just better to soak the bread in the sauce and then let it hold the food and eat it like that, idk there's just something about it to me as an Arab, would understand why so many people would opt out but it's a lovely experience, and honestly it's a skill too
Siding down like that is not easy too if you don’t do it often
Muslims eat with their hands because it’s the Sunnah (t what our prophet used to do ) of prophet Mohammed May peace be upon him. It’s good for you because we have bacteria on our hands that help digest foood. That’s why food always go bad quick when you use your fingers. So basically digestion begins from your fingers, should you eat with your hands.
As a Rohingya who are simply persecuted for being steadfast to our religion, my heartfelt appreciation goes to our Qatari brothers and sisters for displaying the best of humanity-simply being kind and hospitable-to our guests. Love you all.
First time ever seeing one of you guys' presence but I've been supporting yous and making dua for yous ever since I became aware of your existence. May Allah reward yous for your patience and elevate you in jannah, ameen. We are one Body. One Ummah. Muslims 💖🤲
You're not alone brother. I promise you that.
Stay strong as always our Rohingya brothers and sisters. If our governments failed you, God does not. My prayers always with you!
May Allah make thing's easy for you
My Rohingya brothers and sisters your struggles are whole umma struggles love you all
Hello from New York! I enjoyed your video! I was also raised with all of the bad misconceptions of the Middle East and it’s people, and of course Islam. The more Muslims I met and the more I learned about Islam have changed my life… I’m now a Muslim and raising my kids to be, too. So glad you had a beautiful time in Qatar! ❤
Alhamddulillah,Allah bless you all
Allhamdullellah
الحمد لله والشكر.. الله يهدي الجميع يا رب
God bless you

As Qatari I wanna say thank you for clearing up all the misconceptions that the western people have about us.

@user-ho5eq6xi3r هل انا قلت ان الرقص هو الانجاز؟ او هل هالشي كان قصدي ؟ على اي اساس دخلت بنيتي وقررت بدالي ! انا اتكلم عن الاستضافه ( استضافة كاس العالم ) الاستضافه لأول مره بالتاريخ في دوله عربيه يعتبر انجاز لدولتي ولكل العرب ! افهم قبل لا تدخل بالنيات.
@user-ho5eq6xi3r ليست تافهه يمكن تافهه بالنسبه لك لكن لو نرجع للحقيقه ف هي اكبر بطوله عالميه الناس مهتمه فيها وتتابعها وتعتبر من اكبر الانجازات .. لك حرية الراي طبعا بس "الحقيقه" ان هذا انجاز مايختلفون عليه ٢ .. مثل حجم هذي البطوله كانت بس تستضاف عند الاجانب فقط لما دوله عربيه تكسر هذا الشي وتستضيف مثل هذي البطوله ف هاي يعتبر انجاز لقطر ولكل العرب مثل ماقال سمو الامير الله يحفظه في الافتتاح ان هذا انجاز لكل العرب ومب بس لقطر .. اذا تقول لازم العرب يتكاتفون ويسوون و و و و ف انت لازم توقف ضد الي كانو يغلطون ع قطر اعلاميا وباكثر من طريقه بسبب هذي الاستضافه مش تصير واحد منهم! ولما قطر تمنع المثليين وماتتنازل عن مبادئها وتوقف قدامهم وتسوي وتسوي ف هذا بعد يعتبر فخر للعرب لان الكل تعرف على ثقافة العرب وعلى الدين الاسلامي وعلى الاحترام وعلى كل شي ونا شخصيا اكلمك من قطر واقولك ان فكرة الاسلام من الي انا شفته قدام عيوني توضحت للغرب بشكل اجمل واكبر وهذا بعد يعتبر انجاز! لا تستصغر مثل هذي الانجازات الكبيره بس لانها صارت بدوله عربيه .
@user-ho5eq6xi3r صح في ناس تشوفها تافهه لكن الاغلب والاكثر يتمتع بمشاهدتها ونا وحده منهم الصراحه شي يضيع الوقت وحلو وممتع .. والحمدلله قطر دائما تسعى لنشر الدين الاسلامي حتى بمثل هذي البطولات تواجد الملايين ونشرت الاسلام بالطريقه الصحيحه السليمه التي كانت فكرتها مشوهه عند الغرب وبينت الفكره الصحيحه ومن خلالها اسلم اكثر من ١٥٠ شخص ورقم مش صغير لناس كانت ماخذه فكره غلط عن ديننا وتقدر تتاكد من عدة مصادر الحمدلله نفتخر بهالشي🙏🏼.. بس في نقطه حابه انبهك عليها ان حتى لو العراق مش مثل قبل بس كلنا ك عرب لازم نوقف مع بعض ومايصير نحقد ع الخليج او ع باقي الدول العربيه بسبب مشكله من حكام دولتك هشي غلط وبلعكس العراق منا وفينا وشعبها ناس محترمين والنعم فيكم وكل الاحترام لكم اكيد وانشاءالله بترجع احسن من قبل وافضل باذن الله والكويت مستحيل تحتل العراق لان هاي التفكير كان موجود من سنيييين اما الحين التفكير واعي والعرب كلهم ايد وحده باذن الله حتى لو مش مبين بس تاكد ان ايد وحده بكل الاحوال ومستحيل ترجع هذي المشاكل .. وعادي سوء تفاهم والحمدلله ان وصلت فكرتي لك يعطيك العافيه
i dont know why this made me emotional, thankyou for sharing your experience and expressing such wonderful words. I believe the middle east and most Muslim countries are so wrongfully discriminated, during my travels i experienced the same thing and Muslims especially are warm hearted incredibly generous and sharp clever people, opposite to many Brits that i live amongst, not all, but i can say many are unhappy and miserable and they dont even know it.
Te mociona porque dios te quiere…date primer paso
“America the brave still fears what we don’t know….” has never been more true. Thank you for understanding different cultures are an opportunity to learn rather than live in fear.
Who owns the Media & its Propaganda 👉🇮🇱 👈 they are the ones that blamed sep12 on Muslims when they are the ones who did it. Muslims experts say America is a Victim as well
Like they feared WOMD.
Idk if america is really the home of the brave because nothing theyve done in recent years i would call brave in any way but yeah theyre the most advanced and worshipped country the great US of A
Elite in U S A wants Americans to be enclosed in a bubble and wants to destroy the world. Say NO to U S A
@@ishrendon6435 Have You seen what is planned for US? 👉 googl future Map of U S same ones who caused Sep 12 r going to cause the new map 👉🇮🇱 Why? Cuz this time they want to Claim their country back it is going to become Israel... they are busy now Building Solomon'temple in Israel which they started building its basement in 2014 so soon they will get to the top part. Then after the temple they may switch their attention to the red white and blue! it's in all their Plans unfortunately!
No offense but I feel Americans can be very ignorant. They see White and Christian as the best race and culture. As a traveler myself I feel America can learn a lot about different cultures. The main thing I have learned from travelling is that every culture is flawed. There is no utopia and as much as Americans claim their country is the best, it's all about priorities really. There may be others who will give up the benefits of living in America for something they value more.
Very well said
Unfortunately, the media and even what is taught in school plays a big role in this way of thinking. Nobody will ever truly understand how other cultures are without experiencing them first hand
Yeah this is really had, as an American myself, what you said is really true
Americans finds themselves above the world & as the superior race
I feel really ashamed myself, & want to apologize on the ignorance on behalf of some of those americans
I've want to Dubai UAE, & Saudi Arabia Riyadh & Jeddah, & can tell & assure you, i was shown nothing but kindness & Generous hospitality from local people
All religion is the problem
Ironically enough conservative American culture got so much in common with muslim one than it has to do with liberal.
This is how we ate when i was young. We sat down and shared meals like this and it was one of greatest things about my childhood- a great sense of community
Thank you so much
As an Arab Muslim we welcome everyone home and this is part of our religion and culture to show hospitality and welcoming yo people
Welcome and enjoy
As Americans we’re taught to be fearful of the world. Now in my early 30s, I spent my late 20s living in Germany. I felt much safer there than I ever did in the states. And I want to experience traveling and living in other parts of the world. I really want to go to the Middle East. The people and culture there seem really nice and I’d like to experience it.
Try Afghanistan too and subscribe to an American lady who went on her own and met the Taliban Government.Her name is Maryjane
Yep ive travelled to the middle east and it is so safe there especially as a woman
The best thing a human being can do is to travel or atleast go on holiday to places one has never been to before..traveling allows you to make your own judgment/understanding of different cultures and religion..you will realise we have soo much in common than any indifference’s and the media is just lying/dividing us into skin color and religion.
@@musbaarKTBFFH soo true
The Middle East is NOT a COUNTRY bro
All love from yemen … thank you so much for showing to others that people in the Middle East are not what the media have been showing .. and like you said .. we all human we have family and want to be safe and want to provide for our families

We need more Yemeni Restaurants!

It was good to watch an American family eating their food in an Afghan style. I especially liked the way the whole family was laughing and enjoying together . Sharing happy moments with your family like this is really great. May God The Almighty keep you happy together.
I'm an Arab and have lived my entire life in Jordan.. I'm so proud of my religion, traditions, and values.. and have never wanted to live elsewhere. Thank you for clearing up the misconceptions. You're honest and decent human beings.
😂the live is cheaper bcz I just want move muslim countries i live canada I just need comfort live i love 4 years Egypt was wonderful
As a Middle Easterner who lives in Europe, I have never seen any Western tourist who went to the the Middle East and returned with a bad experience.
Most of them were happy and surprised by the kindness and warm welcome of the people…
Poisons are only present in the political media that serve certain agendas.

@@MahmoudMohammed-nu5pg how im asking a question
Living in Denver and Phoenix I was exposed to ladies from all over the middle east. My take away was we are more alike then not. We worry about our kids, family ,parents
.same hopes, fears and dreams. The world is a beautiful place. Why the media wants us in fear ,I have no idea...
Very true.

"Why the media wants us to live in fear, I have no idea" Lets source out the truth..Fear via media manipulates the most vulgar of all inhumane action... War. The same media machine is responsible for lies that lead to all and every reciprocal destruction and continued global suffering, starvation and rampant corruption. We can beat this with positive action through generosity and love.
Thanks Kennons for sharing a large portion of your generosity and love. Stay humble. Stay happy. ✌🐫⚽
Thanks a lot dears that you show my Afghan food, culture and my middle East brothers soft image 🥰
Lot of love from Afghanistan 🇦🇫🥰
Thank you very much for clearing everything out, may god bless you all and your families.
As an Egyptian living in the UK, I was exposed to all cuisines in the UK. I can say that for me, Afghan food is definitely the best, let alone service and attitude of people.
من اي محافظه؟
Noo bya khoo ta afgana yaaa khana 😂
From Algeria i totally agree with you

Nah g, Indian restaurants cooked by bengali chefs >>>
i'm from South East Asia, same as them most of us eat rice with hand since kid. Thats why since our young age we were taught to clip finger nail every week, wash hands with gel/soap before and after eat. And when we arent eating at table we sit on floor mat we sit with crossleg like normal yoga sitting position.
I moved from Egypt to Indonesia and these things reminded me of my childhood for sure.
After growing up we didn't do these practices anymore (except eating rice in excessive amounts) but glad I got to experience it again
Aaaah I'm home
MashaAllah that's the beauty of Islam and The Middle East my brother and sister you can't stop loving it... lots of love from Qatar and India
Your journey is quite heart warming! Thanks for sharing your experience with us.
I had family members out there for years and they loved the experience.
They went from England and experienced a beautiful culture, hospitality and felt welcomed all the time. Nobody judged them or harassed them. They said that it was safer than England!
Love Qatar 🇶🇦
yet Muslim citizens in England are suffering raci***sms, treated like 2nd class, force them to accept what they don't believe in
Looking at the desert and imagining how people lived there thousands of years is just amazing!
Imagine how Qatar Bedouin Tribes manage their potable water sources. desalinized water has to be transported for miles. Then there's rare ground water which only occurs after thunder storms. We, here at home just turn a tap and voila.. It's mind bending to research desert water collection and dividing water between Camels, goats, watering vegetables for seasonal desert gardening. amazing!🥴✌🥴
just look in the map u will see that it's surrounded by water
@@Soultan_music That's salt water tho.
Even more amazing is the fact that nearly 1,400 years ago a civilization started from a desert not different than this one and has changed the course of history forever. 1,400 years ago, the desert dwellers to defeat both the Roman and the Sasanid (Persian) empires is like the Eskimos would defeat both Russia and the USA today.
@@feikahundred I heard it was more green back then I'm not sure though
You guys are beautiful inside and outside. Thanks for making this!
That's a beautiful experience thank you for sharing the happiness
My eyes turned watery bro. Born and raised in Afghanistan, I am currently living in Canada with my family. We have gone through years of discrimination, belittling and bullying by faith based organizations here in Vancouver. But what you said is exactly it, we all strive to provide for our families. We are all human beings, cliche but true. I literally cried, just stopped driving to share this. Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts.
(Btw, you guys looked awesome at the restaurant, but no laying down when eating 😂❤)

Stay strong sister. ❤ from Africa
Thanks for sharing….please don’t cry..it just gives us a headache 😢. Instead spread love, peace and spirituality. Our patience will beat the cruelty some powerful few try to spread. Stay strong and hopeful. Trying to spread the same in all places we lived in UK, Sudan, IR, KSA, Qatar….still counting. And yes Qatar is where I felt/feel the safest!!!Thanks to those who shared this video that moved us Muslims, Arabs and Africans. It is mentalities like yours that prove to us that there is light in this tunnel.

You are SO right about sharing meal with family, totally agreed
Please meet more local as u can, that's gonna open ur eyes into whole new level.
Yes very true. We should not talk about others, we should talk with others, then we realize how much different it makes. I am glad, there's an alternative media, youtube, where we are able to check for the truth behind the scenes. Thanks guys.
From Somalia, Glad to hear all these positive experiences that changed your conceptions of middle east and other cultures. Really enjoyed to watch it!
Many thanks for your visit to our region and sharing your experience with others. This is the beauty of traveling and meeting other cultures.
cool vid. OMG, I was also afraid with all the press I had read and seen but once I got there, it was different and pretty cool. Good indian and middle eastern food. It was pretty small, so I was able to attend 9 matches at the world cup. Thanks for showing us your experiences.
We Muslim learn at a young age to sit respectfully with our legs crossed (yoga position) when eating on the mat. Use our hands because sensation of touch brings another perspective on taste. Nothing on you as you were experiencing this first time and didn’t have the proper clothing that would allow you the flexibility. Fearing others is our own loss. Glad you are spreading the positive message on your channel.
I was just thinking that... Like I know it looks...primitive to outsiders, but what they don't know is that there is an etiquette to follow. Lol
i can tell u both hv a very good communication with each other. wish u guys live happily ever after. God bless u guys
Thank you mister for giving and showing up a real picture about our province
You guys are awesome.. I am so glad you got to experience Qatar, especially during the WC
My Afghan friends say eating is not really eating unless you use your hands. Its the experience thats part of the meal. 😊
love the warmness of your family and cant help to laugh at you trying to eat with your hand 😄
I am glad you tried our Afghan food and I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing such as nice message with the world.
How beautiful is the Mid East's sand dunes??!!! Katar. Sooo much happening all around you and you two manage to capture some goodness.

I really enjoyed when I was watching the video, me as a person live in middle east , i love to see someone try to discover our culture, and compere between what they see on tv about middle east and what they see in realty
Thanks for speaking about it
That's really really makes us feel better
I am laughing watching this video before bed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Amusing . Have fun. It's nice to see American getting to know other cultures.
😅👋🇸🇴
Eating food while sitting on a floor with washed hands has many benefits. In many cultures, from middle East all the way to Indonesia people sit on the floor, hence it’s not uncomfortable. People always wash their hands & gargle before and after meals. Eating on floor connects you to your food, makes you eat less (due to sitting posture), gets you closer to your family.
Thank you for sharing. Alot of people just need to go out more and and learn other cultures.
You are deep down good people and brave to achieved the good part of traveling middle east to see for your self thank you being humble and honest to goodness wish you the best and bring the world together
Hahaha, this truly made me laugh, especially the eating with your hands part. I gotta say, I love the fact that you guys overcame your fears and got to know the culture and the people as best you can. I'm glad your view of the Middle East and Arabs (well, Muslims in general) has changed for the better.
And I hate to go against what an expert like Lincoln would know (lol) but you always wash your hands, eat with your right hand, and start by saying "in the name of God" or in arabic "bis-mil-lah". Brilliant video, you guys smashed it :)
But those who eat with their hands in ME are in the minority. Mainly in the Gulf region.
Actually in the Middle East you are supposed to wash your hands before and after eating. In that Afghan restaurant you did not have to sit on the floor, they have tables and spoons, forks and knives. It is up to you to choose
Thank you for being such cool and nice guests.
It's really nice to see your beautiful family enjoying this occasion together.

Love you guys, and how you approach your travels with open minds, like the Walt Whitman quote.
Eating with your hands is good for the digestive system of your body

It was an impressive video. The American family enjoyed the food at Afghan Brothers in Qatar eating by their hands. It was a new experience for them. The lady was talking about the unity of humanity which was the message relayed by Ghanim and Morgan at the inauguration of World Cup. Thank you guys for sharing this wonderful video. God bless you all.
Awesome video. Your time with your family at fire camp is priceless. You nailed it. Thank you. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
if you are Asian or at least accustomed to cross-legged or squatting with your heels flat on the ground without tiptoe you will definitely have no trouble/pain and it's better to sit on the floor than on a chair!
Oh God no you HAVE to wash your hands if you're going to use them to eat. And, if you want spoons or forks etc, you can ask for it. They won't be offended. Most people use them.
Also, try sitting cross legged or one leg raised foot flat in an angle and one crossed under you if you can't. You can google the health benefits and postures best for you.
I am glad that your family had a great time. Safe and happy travels!!!
The beautiful thing about this World Cup is that it saved you the value of beer and alcohol, and you enjoyed your time while you were conscious
very happy for you to be able to see the" true" middle east, hope the trip changed your prospective about people's as well as culture and their great hospitality.
Alhumduallah so glad your spreading positive outlook. Insha’Allah you’ll have more
Thank you for showing the honest side rather than media
