Najaf, Iraq ➖ After catching an 8-hour bus from Basra, I had arrived in the 2nd holiest city in Iraq, Najaf. My first mission was to get a taxi and find a hotel to stay the night at. I met a friendly guy who dropped me off near the centre of town and I walked to what I thought would be a good hotel. Good is an understatement for the hotel, it was exceptional! After having a short rest it was time to explore and check out the holy shrine of Imam Ali, what an incredible sight it was. I even met a friendly local called Azhar who showed me around the area and bought me some dinner, he was an incredible guy!

That restaurant manager wanted to pay for the meal instead of Azhar but Azhar insisted.

I'm Kurdish from northern Iraq but both of my surgeon parents did their medical studies and work experience rotations all over southern Iraq. Being an 80's baby, most of my childhood years in the 80's involved me visiting them in Baghdad, Samarra, Najaf, Karbala, Samawah and Baqubah. I've been lucky to live in the UK, Italy, Switzerland, France and Luxembourg, but I can never explain to you just how loving and welcoming the Arabs of southern Iraq are. My parents would be busy working in their clinics when I'd visit them and the locals who they were staying with would literally take care of me like I was their child. It now feels like it was a whole other time and place, such was the pure love, welcome and unadulterated care without expecting anything in return. I always felt so at home, and my dad still misses the years he spent in those communities. The Iran Iraq war is what changed everything. Division and suffering perpetrated and escalated through external meddling. We Kurds suffered a lot, but I'm still proud to call people all over Iraq my people.
لقد اجتمعت كل شياطين الانس والجن ضد هذا الشعب ليدمروا تلك الطيبة التي أوجدها الله تعالى في سكان هذه البلاد وقد اختارها أنبياء الله تعالى واولياءه مكانا لرسالتهم إلى البشرية في أن الإنسان هو خليفة الله تعالى من حيث الرحمة والشفقة والكرم واللطف والحلم وكل صفات الخير
شكرا لانك ذكرتنا بتلك الايام
Luke I am from Afghanistan and a shia living in Australia, you have to go to Iraq for Arbaeen it will be a once in a lifetime experience you will not regret it please show the world about our beautiful religion. If you think you have seen hospitality you will be shocked to see this event.

I can say Azhar is an example of a real Iraqi, it makes them proud to share his best with his guests. 💯 if you accept
their invitation, you make them very happy.
I've never seen such amazing place in the world.
Another Aussie here, Iraq is one country I thought I would never want to visit, mainly due to media portrayal of the country. But wow, not what I expected and the people are exceptional, I'm sold on Iraq and hope to visit one day.
I'm Iraqi 24 years old but I'm in Germany since my childhood and the last time I was in Iraq Bagdad was In 2012 and it was the best vacation for me because the people are very friendly and the food was amazing and the activities were very fun there you should also visit Iraq brother you will get the visa very fast
You’re welcome anytime. Be glad to help you out.
I'm an Iraqi from Australia and recently visited Baghdad to see relatives -- can safely say it was an absolute blast! I really encourage you to visit Iraq one day, you'll love it.
You very welcome my man
The problem is people they believe the media like what they say about my country but you see the truth
The whole middle east is pretty amazing.
As a Pakistani Muslim I'm so happy to see you there in Iraq visiting one of the very most sacred and holy place for us. You are so lucky to get to be there and see it with your eyes. Many Muslims around the world especially in Pakistan wish heartily and pray that they could get to breath in that air and experience to touch the soil of najaf. I wish everyone could go there who wishes. I'm a fan your channel is addictive positively and I like your reviews you are so funny, honest and friendly. Such a bright soul and joyful. I wish the best life for you lots of love from Pakistan. Please come to Pakistan again and come to Lahore too..
تحيه لك من بغداد

iraqi people like this. kind, friendly, generous. anyone visits iraq can see it clearly. greetings to lovely indonesia and its nice people.
Not going to lie, these videos of iraq etc have totally changed my perception of these countries.
So refreshing to see honest unbiased everyday life and how generous and grateful iraqi people are. Class mate 👍
History started in Iraq. the first letters in the world came from this land. its rich history and great legacy
You can see women in hijab in everywhere in holy shrine. All is fraud of media.

amazing city Assalam o alkum love you iraqi peoples from pakistan.
Think you 🇮🇶🌺🇵🇰
Was in Najaf for 5 months in 05. Even then as the occupiers the people were so friendly and inviting. It was a pretty safe area then and we would just patrol around and stop and engage with the people and they were always so hospitable. I’ve always wanted to go back there and visit as a tourist. Still have friends from there I met back then that I still talk to every few years.
Imam Ali is a brave and just man♥
Azhar is such a good guy ❤️❤️ his hospitality just touched my heart🥺 he has a very rich heart ❤️
It’s so embarrassing to Azhar when you offered him money, it’s like someone gives you a gift and you are offering money to him, love your videos and Happy Australia Day 🇦🇺❤️
yes it's true.
yeah I felt second hand embarrassment for him when je did that like as you compared very well, it is disrespectful to do that, and Luke should know to be smart enough not to do that when Azhar literally told him about the culture of offering foreigners everything...
Because you are in Iraq
Go to the iraq please ❤️🙏
اهلا وسهلا سيد لوك في العراق

beautiful visit you should've stayed in Iraq more and showed us more about that beautiful country, media made it seem pretty different
تحيه للاخ ازهر بيض الله وجهك واهلا وسهلا بالاخ من استراليا حياكم الله
azhar was a gem! i’ve been waiting for this video, been following up with your Iraq series videos. visiting Najaf or Karbala will never disappoint, i hope to visit one day as my religious duty.
Inshallah
I see how you’ve grown as a young man visiting these beautiful countries and experiences great hospitality from local and less fortunate people financially but still show visitors great love and great respect. From Wimbledon London
موقف جميل ورائع من الاخ ازهر ينقل صورة جميلة عن اخلاق وكرم الشعب العراقي ...فديو جميل ارجو الترجمة الى العربية
Wow this is eye opening, the medias indeed showing only the negative sides and brainwashing people about the reality of one, that's kinda sad. I am just glad that Luke can be able to show pure authenticity on his vlogs on his own willingness. 🇵🇭💖🇮🇶
❤
Yes, this media is only trying to show the negative aspects
My favourite guy to watch. He has sacrificed a lot for these videos to be uploaded. Its really cool to see you in my city Najaf. The name najaf came after the sea dried. It means dry land. The shrine of imam ali alayhi salam is always a pleasure to see. The people and their hospitality. Its really nice to see you walking on these streets. Najafs best place to visit is rawan street. I do highly recommend visiting karbala. Its known to be heaven on earth. Good luck bro. If you were with any iraqi friend they wouldnt let you pay. We like to host our invitations. That guy you met was awesome.
As I belong to Shia Muslims Community , very happy to see in Holy place Najaf. Allah Almighty have awarded you with ziayarat(meaning visiting holy place) of Imam Ali (AS) ,The Lion Of Allah Almighty
I hope you get to visit one day too. Amazing place
Thankyou so much .
Bye the way you should had visit Pakistan in winter too, you would find the places more beautiful ❤️
Me too
لكن لا يوجد شيء يسمى اسلام شيعي،
يوجد فقط دين اسلامي ودين شيعي

Beautiful country, amazing people !! I really want to visit Irak!!!! Thank you Luke for showing me the real people of Irak!!!
Yes, they are the Iraqis who have all the attributes of Islam, and from the nature of the Arabs is generosity and hospitality to danger
@@user-lz8ft7dg9k nice, but why always bring out the religion? If you come to our polynesian islands in South Pacific , you will be told we are nice welcoming people not that we have all the attributes of Christianity. Western people has been launching rockets and satellites for years, a progress for the whole world. Saudi Arabia sends a satellite (all western technology), they take it as a victory for muslim. Very peculiar.
He even stood and watched you walking away, what a gem.
Am your follower boy , because of you my perception in IRAQ seems changed a lot for good. Really wanted to see and travel there too ... STay safe always Luke !
You should, its a beautiful country. The people will always welcome you and are very kind. ❤️

I’ve been watching you videos since you went to Lebanon and now I come across this and I’m genuinely so amazed at how you’re willing to learn and visit these places. As a shia muslim I appreciate seeing this through your videos.
Please do read about the historic event that happened to Imam Hussain.
It is absolutely heart wrecking.
Which is why this is the biggest holy gathering in the world.
I’m proud of my country people , what a kind man azhir ❤️ , Am living in US and enjoying you videos Luke 👏

Azhar is such a great guy, so generous. Very impressed. I was shocked to see that the hotel receptionist wanted to hold on to your passport; that's ridiculous. Did they finally agree to give it back?
It’s common in the Middle East to leave your passport at the reception. Definitely wrong idea thu!
It is common over there as a way to guarantee getting paid by the customer
@@ahmedaj3636 even in turkey i leave my passport
Yes, they are the Iraqis who have all the attributes of Islam, and from the nature of the Arabs is generosity and hospitality to danger
Dear brother, the passport stays with the employee is normal, the police call the hotel employees this time, and usually when I leave the hotel, even if this is Iraqi, they will take his passport or the identity of the country of Iraq in safety and the Iraqi people are generous and thank you Hello
عاشت ايدك ازهر ... والله انت ذهب
Yayy another video! Thanks Luke.. great stuff. So raw, authentic and love the energy you have delivering content
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed :)
Hopefully the hotel employee gave your passport back to you. Losing that is a nightmare. Great video as always.

شكراً لك يا أزهر كنت أكثر من رائع ربي يعطيك العافيه والله يكثر من امثالك فعلاً رجال محترم
Yesterday Nomac posted Hunza video and showed Lexus guest house and said "here my buddy Luke stayed" Luke Dement you are here everyday, Najaf has a very special place in all Muslims heart forever, Iraqi people deserve a salute for their hospitality even they have suffered very hard time.

😍 Outstanding vlog. Thanks Luke for bringing the real Iraq to us. ❤️
Nice to see you in Imam Ali (as) shrine brother Love from Pakistan
Dude, although you are too young, but your vlogs are the best of the best. Direct reaction and authentic. You sometimes take risks just to reflect the reality of places you visit so your audience get to see it as real as it gets.
Take risks, is Iraq dangerous? I am Iraqi, and our country is safe. Do not be deceived by the American media, because America destroyed Iraq without humanity, brutally killed, and now the Americans say that Iraq is dangerous. It is funny. 😂
Thank you luke and Azhar , amazing video , cant wait for more , its amazing seeing 🇮🇶 iraq in such a beautiful presentation. Amazing generous people and will always be generous. I cant wait to visit , its been 13 years .

I wish I can go there one day I am stock in australia been more thane 25 years never visit my lovely country iraq but it's allways inside heart .
Yes the people are so generous and the places here are magical 🙏
During the Ashura months, when visiting Karbala and Najaf, it is a remarkable and unparalleled experience to witness the provision of free services to the public, including food and hospitality, for the entire duration of the holy commemoration of Imam Hussain's death. This extraordinary display of generosity is truly a unique and awe-inspiring phenomenon, unlike anything found elsewhere in the world.
I truly love watching your videos. It makes me dream. I wish to visit all these countries. Keep up with your videos love how you blend with people ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg❤ i like this
Thank you so much AZHAR is good person 😢
Big love to IRAQ♡
Another great video from this kid, this guy is fearless in travelling to these places, i mentioned in another video, mac is a great guy as well but it was begining to look like a double act, mac has a great channel as well,but this kid i wish i was as brave as him,he gives the view of these countries we do not get to see , all the locals in every video he makes seem very friendly with him,luke solo trips from know on , i stumbled on this guys channel last year, great videos,

Omg najaf is the most beautiful and peaceful city my eyes have ever seen. It is the city of HAZRAT IMAM ALI(AS). The students around shrine and universities and the atmosphere in shrine and around it is so peaceful and you wont get that peace anywhere in the world.
Welcome Luke in Iraq. I am so happy watching your beautiful videos. I am even more happy that there are young Iraqis like Azhar from Basra who probide you and othet tourists with assistance as much as they can. I hope you will visit us always, we are welcoming all people from all around countries .
Your passport is the most important document you have when you travel , never ever leave it with anyone as you can't go far without it and if lost can cause a huge range of problems including lost or delayed travel plans out of the country .
I have experienced the same situation , a few times where the person behind the hotel reception counter wants to keep it when I arrived instead of returning it as soon as it is photo copied .
They have told me that they want to look at my travel history which is none of their business , it is not safe leaving it with someone as it could disappear of the counter when the receptionist is called away from the counter if not locked up .
Also if you leave your passport with the hotel and the stay has problems , you are stranded there until the passport is returned or found .
I agree, NEVER leave your passport with the hotel staff. The hotel makes photocopy, keeps the photocopy and returns the passport to the owner/hotel guest.
yes i travel before to jordn i give my passport to the hotel next day in morning i asked for my passport to leave to my flight back home they told me can't find it
Passports are “ISSUED” in the name of the person holding the document. This means by law (my understanding) in the case of Australia this Federal document is meant to be HELD by the official name issued it to. Ring your local embassy immediately if ever asked to do what Luke Damant was asked. Possibly language barrier or local Country law, but just check.
Iraq is a safe country my dear brother no need for fear
Having your Janazah salat (final prayers) at Imam Ali mosque, what an honor 🤲
What a legend that guy was. So nice and cool.
Aaaahhhhhh

Now I live in San Diego CA
But I visit once a year
I love the food there and the community.
If you have time visit Kufa right by the river it's beautiful
