Imagine if you were to have access to the bank accounts and the wealth of the richest people in the world. Would this make you happy? Now reflect with me on this verse when Allah subhanaw taala said, we'll be fugly later he will be Rama de say with from the bounties of Allah and from his mercy, and what's meant by the fulbourn the bounties and the Rama in this verse, the father of Allah and his verse, what's meant by is Le Salam, and the Rama, the Quran, the blessing of Islam, and the blessing of the Quran. Allah told us throughout the Quran, the blessing of the Quran, he told us that it's Shiva and Rama. It's a cure and it's mercy for the meaning for the believers. What the Lord tells us

to do with these two blessings. He said, Furby, that Iike failure for a hoe. So let them rejoice with this, and to be happy and to rejoice with the blessing of the Quran, and the blessing of Islam, the greatest blessings that we've been blessed with at Hamdulillah.

When you look and you see as a Muslim, you see the reality of what many non Muslims fall into around the world. You see a person who's drunk and he can't even hold himself up. You see a woman bouncing around from man to man, you see, the the

family structure has been destroyed. You see that? You know, the depression, the suicide rates, all of the things that they're going through. It reminds us of the greatness of Islam. And it reminds us of what Allah has taught us here for be that IQ of Elia Franco. So let them rejoice and let them be happy and true happiness. It's going to be in the heart, and then it's going to show up in our actions.
