saying salam, so they don't engage with that kind of ignorance. And that's how they are able to
protect their own peace and tranquility. And we talked about that previously. However, Allah
subhanaw taala continues on in the passage by detailing further characteristics of these devout

standing in prayer before Allah. And this is talking about the idea that everyone at some point or
another, maybe on the weekend, maybe during the vacation whenever it is, different people at
different levels sometimes indulge in things a little bit later into the evening later into the
night. And they have certain activities that they do at that time, that provide them a sense of, you
know, relaxation or comfort. And Allah is saying that these are people who understand that the
ultimate peace and tranquility is found in connecting to Allah subhanaw taala. So they devote that

lives in an in a in a in a moderate fashion. They learn to live their lives very moderately, they do
not when they spend their money, they are not excessive, they are not extravagant, they don't spend
beyond their means they don't spend on that which they do not need, nor are they so stingy, that

humorous the way it was phrased, but I was talking about how my mentor my chef Mufti Muhammad Nang,
Rama Allahu taala.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:46
			He would talk about how to live a good life.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:05:00
