@Moha_oz wrote: You are a great player, a good human being, and God has blessed you with money, fame, and the love of people, but know who has provided you with all of this capable of taking it from you in the blink of an eye. Know that you celebrate a day in which they claim that God gives birth to the likes of us, and a day when God is cursed and insulted, so do not be the seat and imprint of their actions, and respect the one who provided you with sustenance and gave you your dreams and purified him from the accusations of the people.
