Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah Hamden cathedral the uban Mubarak and fie
Mubarak and it Ghana you hate Bora buena? Ya Allah Jalla Jalla Allahu
I'm in a word was salatu salam O Allah say you will have evil
Mustafa sallallahu alayhi wa ala alihi wa sahbihi odaka was seldom
at the Sleeman guest here on Eli Yomi Dean and my bad
God Allahu Tabarka Tada Phil Quran Majeed, our eight Olivia you get
the bobby Deen further illegal Lizzy don't really a team. What
are your whole dough? Allah pyramidal miskeen?
A Allah subhanho wa Taala says in the Quran? Have you seen the one
who denies the religion?
He is the one who doesn't encourage
to feed the poor.
And he is the one who
repels the orphans.
Repelling orphans Is he
the worldview that Islam has in keeping stability in this world
among people, and in the society that we have,
we generally understand that we must look after people that we're
connected to and that we know, for example, people we know meaning
our own relatives, our parents, our children, our brothers and
sisters, and our extended families, cousins, etc. We also
have an understanding of looking after people who live close by us.
And that's why you have the emphasis in Islam about neighbors,
and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam encouraging good
treatment, good interaction with our neighbors as well.
Just as Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us to be good with people
we're connected to. Likewise, in Islam, we're also recommended and
strongly encouraged to help one another out, even if we don't know
the other person. So people we're not generally connected to, we're
also supposed to have a good interaction and an excellent
interaction with them as well. And in this case, we have two
particular categories of people. And generally, you get this
category of people from the kind of circumstance we find ourselves
in today, around the world, where there are massive upheavals, there
are numerous people that are being killed. There's a massive diaspora
of people from various different countries going to other
countries, you've seen numerous people coming into Europe as well.
Germany has taken about a million refugees and, and the other
countries, there's numerous refugees in many, many other
countries, all around Europe and Scandinavia as well.
So what we have is, in this kind of a situation, you have two
people who generally fare the worst of this, the widows and the
orphans, generally the men tend to get by because they can work
they're able they can do these things. The women would be
lumbered with the children generally. And it would be much
more difficult sometimes to find work. And a lot of the time they
actually have a problem in terms of being abused in the situation,
many turned to vocations that they would never ever dream of doing,
and which is really sad. And then Worse still, is how you deal with
the orphans. So Allah subhanho wa taala, has some commands about
this. And he's really, really speaks criticizes those people in
the Quran, he criticizes those people who have no idea have no
compassion, have nothing to do it orphans. And that's really sad.
The price Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam encouraged orphans in a
very intense way that a person should look after them. So I'm
going to go through a few few Hadith in this in this regard,
which really gives us an understanding of this, and
Inshallah, it will spur us to do a bit more for them, you know, not
every body here will be able to able to open up their houses and
take in an orphan. Right. I mean, there's a lot of paperwork,
there's a lot of legalities that you have to undergo for that.
However, we also know that Hamdulillah we have a fostering
agency here. And we also have numerous people in our community
that do fostering and that if you do it for the right reason, with
the right intention, there's a huge amount of reward for that.
And I know that you also get paid for this. I mean, there are these
financial incentives for doing that as well. So, in terms of in
terms of all of that, let me mention the first Hadith here
that's related by mumble Haryana Imam Muslim from Abu Huraira the
Allahu Anhu Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
a sorry, Island Urmila well Misaki in our miskeen called Bucha he
beefy subete Allah, this is a generation that anybody who makes
an effort, who makes an effort, you know, to rehouse to benefit to
look after to facilitate for whatever that may be whatever kind
of effort a person makes behind widows and
Behind poor people in general, the needy in general, the needy in
general, then this person is like the Mujahid, in the path of Allah,
this person is like the warrior in the path of Allah subhanaw taala.
See, they understood in the context in which those who will
Allah Larson was speaking at the time, or to the people, he was
speaking his audience, they understood the great bounties and
benefits and virtues of being a warrior in the path of Allah
subhanho wa taala. So, the prophesy blossom is taking some of
that emotion from there some of that understanding from there and
saying, you get something similar by doing this as well, because
this is such an important aspect. And generally this kind of thing
happens along with Jihads that are taking place or after Jihads that
have taken place, and thus this needs to be taken care of as well.
And the the narrator then says what I see Well who call I also
think that the privacy law, some said Kalka Imola after worker saw
me Lai la usted
that this is, in fact this person who works to facilitate for off
for
widows and for the needy, then they are like the person who
stands at nighttime to pray not getting tired. So just imagine
several hours standing at night for prayer, which is very, very
difficult. This person gets a similar reward for that because
it's for humanity. And likewise, the person who is constantly
fasting hardly ever not fasting. That's a huge reward and people
understand these rewards and thus the professor awesome is extending
these to also looking after the needy and for widows. Then you
have another Hadith in which the Prophet sallallahu sallam said
Khalifa Buhari this time from Sahel Lucknow said, Radi Allahu
Anhu Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Anna were
careful Yeah teamie LA who only later he? Phil Phil Jannetty haka.
What Ashara be suburb city. Well, Wooster will follow Raja Baden
Houma. Shaitan. This hadith of Buhari related from side to side
or the Allahu on says that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said that myself,
I am, along with the orphan, sorry, along with those who look
after orphans, the person who looks after an orphan of his own,
or an orphan of somebody else, is going to be in Paradise with Me
like this, he put out his middle finger and his index finger, and
he just left a small space between them, he opened them slightly, to
say they're going to be very, very close.
I mean, you have to understand what that means. The Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam, if you can just get an
understanding of his status.
Just to give you an understanding of what his status is his status,
even compared to the rest of the prophets, any of the other
prophets is like between the earth and the heaven, the prophets are
awesome is up there, the other prophets have that much of a
difference, just the other prophets are obviously way more
higher than any other human beings, any of the other human
beings. But the profit or loss from status is very, very high.
And the professor Lawson was saying that if you want an upgrade
in Jannah, and you want to go there and you want to be upgraded,
you will understand you want to be in my position close to me,
similar to where I am, then you need to look after the orphans,
that you have to remember the prophecy Lawson himself was an
orphan. Because an orphan just to define what an orphan is an orphan
is the person who's lost a father while still young. Meaning while
not mature, before the age of blue, as we call it, you know,
between the age of 1314, or 15, if a person boy or girl loses their
father,
right, whether they have their mother or not, that that doesn't
give them the title of your mean of your team. Your team is a
person who doesn't have a father, because the understanding is that
once you don't have a father, then they're going to be very, very
vulnerable. So even if they still have their mother, you don't have
to lose both parents to be a team, you just have to lose your father.
So if a person has lost his mother, but not his father, he is
not technically he or she is not technically called a me yet team,
though, of course, definitely. Somebody who needs our compassion
as well. So a your team is a boy or a girl before the age of blue
until the age of blue rather, who doesn't have a father.
After the person matures, then he is a man or a woman he or she is a
man or a woman. And then after that they not consider the theme.
So you can't have an adult your team as such, you can have an
orphan who you know, who was who was an orphan at one time.
So the Prophet sallallahu is really, really encouraging. So
what does he mean in this hadith by the person who looks after his
own your team? Or somebody else's? How could you look after your own
your team, your own your team means for example, your grandson,
your granddaughter, so for example, your own son passed away
and he left behind children. So you look after them all for
example, your brother passed away, your sister passed away their
children. Now obviously, the understanding is that
If you have orphans, from your own family members, your son or
daughter passed away brother or sister passed away, somebody
related to you passed away and they left children, you look after
them, that's understandable, that's going to be a demand of
kinship, there's going to be a demand of your relationship
anyway. So that's understandable, but the brothers are some saying
that is the Prophet sallallahu Sallam is saying, you get reward
for that as well. And if they are orphans of someone else, you don't
even know who this person is. They come from a completely different
background, not connected up to you at all. You still get that
reward, you get the reward for both of them because they are
orphans. They need your help, and they need people to look after
him. So this incentive is given for that.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then said another Hadith,
which is related by Imam telemovie, that
buzzworthy Allahu Anhu relates Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said that men Kabbalah, ye Tieman, whoever takes on takes out
a year team takes out an orphan mean banal Muslimeen from among
the believers. So in the community, there's somebody whose
father passed away, and you started looking after that person.
So locally, somebody's father passed away, and you're going to
look after that person. Now, I know, in this country, there's a
welfare system of sorts, and the mother, even if she's not working,
she may be working. But if she's not working, there's going to be
some amount. But I mean, we've dealt with these kinds of
situations, through novel benevolence fund as well. And they
are still vulnerable, because they find it very difficult to make
ends meet, especially on what you you get, there's no, it's not
always enough. And we really do need people to help them. And you
know, above the financial support that you can give to such people.
There's another kind of support, which is probably equally if not
more important, and that is moral support. Because when a woman
loses a husband, for example, when a child loses their father, right,
or their mother for that matter, then it's very, I mean, you can't
give them a replacement. I mean, you can't give them a complete
replacement. But you can definitely make them feel welcomed
and helped. And you can assist them and look at the family
Rasulullah lorrison, the Prophet sallallahu sallam, his father
passed away before he was he was born, he was born. So of course,
his grandfather had taken responsibility, in a sense, his
mother was there. But then his mother passed away when he was
just a few years old as well. And then after his grandfather, took
care of him, his grandfather passed away, then his uncle took
care of him. So you can see that this tradition was there, and the
Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam Hamdulillah. When people you get
to look after them, the children grow up healthy and good. And of
course, with the Prophet sallallahu, Sunday was Allah
subhanaw taala, giving him all the support that he needed as well.
But generally speaking, you need that support, and a community can
give that support. So that's why we have to think about these
things. If we know people locally, we need to worry about them. And
then we need to think about people from other countries like Syria
and other places that need our help in this regard as well. The
prophets Allah Allah says in this hadith that whoever takes on an
orphan, takes out an orphan from among the community. Illa to me,
he was Sharabi.
For his food and drink, he takes on his responsibility of food and
drink.
Then at holla, Hula, hula Ginetta l batata. The Allah subhanho wa
Taala will enter him into Jana, for sure. Al batata for sure,
definitely.
It's a word of emphasis, you will definitely
enter him into Jana into paradise. Except
Are you gonna call jameelah Himba yo for unless he's done a sin that
cannot be forgiven through this. So he's done some kind of major
sin is going to have to do to buffer that. But otherwise, this
person, this is such a ticket, that he will enter you into
paradise. It's a very powerful ticket unless there's some very
serious crime that you've committed, which will prevent you
which will overturn this ticket otherwise, you will go into Jannah
sins like Cofer shake, bloodshed, murder, etc, you know, the kind of
serious since these are considered to be you know, how Kubelet Riba,
generally, and just violence and so on. I mean, these kinds of
people, mean somebody who commits murder and tyranny. They wouldn't
have that kind of compassion generally anyway, unless they
completely turned around make Toba and if they've made Toba, then
these people are forgiven anyway. So these are people who haven't
made Toba that this is speaking about this another Hadith is
related by Imam Muhammad Ali mountain movie, from Abu Omar
Mara, the Allah one.
I mean, just just look at the way the Prophet sallallahu Sallam has
dealt with this on every level. He's dealt with it on the level of
just looking after the widows in general, and people in need in
general, that just encompasses everybody. Then he speaks about
looking after an orphan, whether that be your own orphan of your
family or somebody else's orphan, and the huge reward you get for
that, then the Prophet salallahu Salam, again, emphasizes that in a
number of different ways, right I've just mentioned to to Hadith
in that regard. And then
The third narration that I'm going to mention to you, the fourth
generation, actually, this narration is about compassion.
It's not just about giving money today, it's become very easy to
look after your team, to be honest. You know how much it
costs, it cost about 365 pounds or something, one pound a day, that's
the average look after your team in many countries, you go to
places like OMA welfare, trust and number of these other
organizations, they will let you know they will give you the option
of picking your team in different countries, they will then send you
every year that the name and certain reports about this person,
so you kind of have some kind of connection, you feel some kind of
connection to this person, sometimes, some of these people
also send you a picture of this person. And it's become a lot more
easier. The you don't even have to bring people into your house.
Right. So a lot of people may do this, that they will spend, I
mean, 365 pounds or so is not even enough for a person to look after
themselves for one month in this country. For a single person. We
are paying that much to look after a year team. And often in another
country for the entire year, you're giving one year life to
somebody else. That's quite amazing. I mean, life, life is
very important. And generally, we don't respect our life, because we
don't see it going so fast here because Alhamdulillah, we're in a
relative state of security and safety. We don't see violence
against lives in, you know, within our circles as much as what you
see. But when you see what's going on in other countries, and people
are losing their life. And those who don't lose in don't lose their
life, they are displaced, being forced to do some really, really
bad thing. I mean, for example, in Turkey in those border areas with
Syria, the children are being now employed in their 1000s in
clothing companies and so on. Children as young as 789, doing
menial work like this working adult hours, for half the pay of
adults. And they the employers there, they prefer to take on the
children, because they're much more easier to deal with, they can
you know, tell them to bring coffee, tea, whatever it is, they
do all the tasks, but they're being forced to work. Now, you
might say, well, children have worked before. But the problem is
this that in this time and age without a decent education is very
difficult, you know, for a person to be literate and so on these
children who are being forced to work.
They're not going to school, they're not going to school. And
the reason they're not going to school, even though in Turkey,
education for even refugee children is for free.
But most of these children, at least 300,001 1000 children are
not working sorry are not going to school because their families
can't support themselves without their children working. Because
the adults aren't given jobs because they are like a
competition to I'm just talking about Turkey. I mean, there's
other countries as an issue. So they, they only give the children
jobs that the children have to go out to work and thus they can't go
to school and then they're just gonna grow up illiterate and which
is very sad. And that's not the right way to do these things. So
when we don't see this for ourselves, we feel that it's all
fine. It's just that we have a relative state of safety but we
have to do our part.
So in this hadith, this tells you what else you can do over and
above giving money and helping financially. In this hadith, Abu
Omar Marathi Allah Juan reports the Sunnah allah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam said that man, Messiah, alright, so your team in LA who?
Right now Massa razza team in lamium. So in LA Leela Gan Allah
who luckily Shah Ratan OB coalition ruthenium guru La Jolla
do who has an earth
anybody who passes his hand over
the head of an orphan.
Passing your hand over the head of an orphan means you do it in
compassion. You're saying you know I'm here to protect you. I'm here
to help you I'm here to make you feel at home. Not for any other
reason that's why the Prophet sallallahu sallam said he doesn't
do this except for Allah sake. He does this purely for Allah sake
because he feels the compassion he's got the softness in the
heart.
It's not just about quickly giving money to somebody but that know he
feels something in his heart.
Then for every
every hair
that his hand passes over, and there's a lot of hair on people's
heads, every hair that your hand passes over you get reward for
every single hair has hundreds for every hair.
And then woman asked Anna ilaya team at in Oh yeah, team in India
who? Whoever
deals beautifully. And well whoever does good for that. Yet
often
A girl or boy that he has then come to Anna, come to Anna Wahoo
or Phil genetica attained and myself and he, myself and he are
like this in Jannah the prophets a lot of them said and he said well
for our Quran abena is very heavy and then he put his two fingers
together. So while not just completely together like this, but
you know, they are like this very close to me. You know, like you
say to people were like this, which means you're very, very
close
abou Herrera, the Allahu Anhu says that Rasulullah sallallahu sallam
said hadith of Ibn omaggio by the way, Jairo baiting, Phil
Muslimeen, beta and v here team on your arsenal, Eli, the best home
of a believer is the one in which there is an orphan who is dealing
with well in that home, they deal with them well, deal with them,
like their own children are even better. We're short probate infill
Muslimeen based on user beta and v here team when you sell ELA, which
means that it's that home, the worst of the homes, is the one in
which there's a your team who is deal dealt with very badly.
And a person doesn't give them what they need. A person doesn't
give them what they need.
This is this is the general encouragement. This is our way of
Islam. This is our way of Islam. This is the slums way of helping
each other.
Not everything's a business. But this is purely as human beings, we
need acts of compassion that we can do for a healthy lifestyle.
Research shows that human beings, if they don't do acts of
compassion, then they are miserable. Those do who don't,
those who do acts of compassion, they are much happier than people
who don't, because giving to others makes you feel much better.
And they've got it down. I mean, the research today is so amazing.
They've got it down to the the exact chemicals that are released,
when you do an act of compassion.
How you feel, it makes you much better, it makes you healthier,
healthier, removes depression from your life, if you have depression
in your life, because you know, you've got a bad situation in your
family, you know, maybe a husband and wife problem, you know, maybe
some other problem with with parents or somebody else. And it's
long lasting when you none of you can get out of it because
sometimes you just become entrenched. And then it becomes a
lifestyle to do that. You don't know how to make it different.
You feel discomfort. In fact, you become comfortable in the
situation, though you're uncomfortable, you actually become
in just completely comfortable. And that's a you don't know any
other way. You're too deeply entrenched. Try to just assist
others and help others and it will make you forget your way and it
will show you another way out. At least human as a human being.
You're personally speaking deep down in your mind and hearts, you
will be doing something else as opposed to just focusing on your
own misery which you can't get out of which you feel you can't get
out of rather, and Allah will make her way to do this. Allah would
make a way to do this. acts of compassion are really really
beneficial, especially when you put your heart to them. And that's
why the promises and the same put you putting your hands over
passing your hands or which means showing affection, showing
affections.
That's how
you relate to another Hadith which is exactly in this way. And this
is a totally This is the third level of discussion here. Right,
which is not just financial help, but actually compassionate help,
moral help, which is just to make people feel good. It's not just
about here, take the money and go. The Prophet sallallahu sallam said
Hadith Narrated by Abu Huraira the Allahu Anhu that a person came and
he complained to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam about
the hardness of his heart. My heart is very hard, nothing
impacts me. I can't cry I can't feel I can't I can't feel any
spirituality. I don't feel like doing anything.
You know, the Quran when I read I don't benefit. I don't even feel
like reading the Quran. I feel estrangement I feel a form of
darkness difficulty when I'm in good surroundings in the masjid.
When I'm trying to in Ramadan, or whatever the case is around pious
people.
I've got a hard heart. In order Brock's awesome. told him to do.
He said EMSA razza team, go and put your hand over the head of a
team feel the connection.
You know, one is you look hard enough and other one is you go
close enough. You get into their kind of private space in a sense,
you you bond to a certain degree.
You're in a very pure way you put your hand over them and you start
feeling suddenly, you know that's what it is you start feeling from
a distance you can't feel anything Subhanallah you read
Stories and today with the visionary with the with the
vision, with all the visualization of all of the wars and everything
that we see around us, it's made us our tolerance level, our
disgust level, it's just out of the roof it's way before these
things will be very disgusting. But now it's not because the gory
details, we've seen them all, and nothing bothers us anymore. It's
quite normalized, become normalized in our mind. So when
you actually feel somebody, when you you know, when they actually
feel close to them, then you feel a connection and you feel maybe
the difficulty that they may be going through, you'll see their
eyes, you'll see their face, you'll see that expression, you
will sense their need. That's what the previous lesson said, in
Sahara Tsylia. Team, go and put your hand, pass your hand over the
head of your team, what other Emily miskeen go and feed some
needy people, when you see them, and the satisfaction that they
get.
When you fed them that look on their face, believe me, it will
just have all of the good chemicals in your body just
coursing through your body and the sense of satisfaction that you
will get will be amazing. Soften your heart out, you'll want to do
it again. So you can't soften your heart by just sitting at home
doing nothing. You have to do something, get in the field and do
something and then you will see that this will benefit you. And
this is what the Prophet sallallahu sallam said,
Men, Faraja and Muslim and Korba. Anybody who removes the difficulty
from another Muslim,
Allah Faraja. And who couldn't determine Cora beyond km, Allah
would remove a difficulty of the day of judgment from him. The
difficulty is on the Day of Judgment,
have no relief, that they are difficulties, difficulties in this
world are short lived in the mercy of the user with every difficulty
comes easy in this world, as Allah says in the Quran, but in the
hereafter a difficulty is a difficulty. What we need in this
world, you know, just from a religious perspective, you know,
is that we have all of the side investments that are working for
us, we've paid for a team here, we've looked after another one
there, we've, you know, we've helped some poor people and needy
people here and there, and we carry on doing the best that we
can do for ourselves in this world. Then on the Day of
Judgment, all of these investments will be realized, you're sending
Oh, yes, I did one year pay for your team, I did do this, I did do
that. You will see all of this coming together, and then you will
just be so satisfied. You'll just be so satisfied, like a person who
finds in his home some money that they may have, you know, kept
behind some shelf or behind some bed or something like that. They
forgotten about it. And they're in some need and whatever. And then
suddenly, one day, somebody's cleaning there and they find what
is this is money
or something like this. You know this is the satisfaction on the
Day of Judgment will be even higher because you need every
penny on that day, and the difficulty that will be removed.
And that's why the Prophet sallallahu sallam said in
narration of OSA either who they call the call Rasulullah
sallallahu sallam, any Muslim
who gives clothing who clothes another Muslim
Thoburn Allah oran when the person is in need for those clothing,
then Allah will
clothe him from the greenery of paradise, because the clothing in
Jannah is going to be very natural. According to many Hadith,
they're going to come from trees, there will be garments that will
be produced from the fibers of trees, it seems completely
natural. I mean today, you know, clothing, from cotton from bamboo
and from other natural fibers like this. And any Muslim who feeds
another Muslim for undefeated on hunger, then Allah will feed him
from the beautiful fruits of Paradise.
And any Muslim who gives another Muslim to drink when they're in
need when they are thirsty. Then Allah will give them from a Rahim
Al Maktoum,
from Allah Hagel motto, which is the special drink of Paradise.
Allah will give them to drink from there.
So for Amelia team of Allah Dukkha as Allah says in the Quran, when
it comes to orphans do not repel them, but do something for them.
And for vertical Livia didn't really a team, Allah curses and
criticizes the person who would shoo away, the orphans, gullible
to Cremona, Leah team. Nay, you would never honor the orphans. You
never honored the orphans. Can you imagine on the day of judgment if
we've never helped an orphan what Allah subhanaw taala may say to
us? Now, some of us might be thinking, well, it's not our job.
It's not our fault.
But don't every one of us want a bit of a, you know, like for
example,
when it comes
To the world.
Generally, there are certain investments that are very hot,
sometimes it's shares and stock, it's the stock market. Sometimes
it's stock markets in the tech companies, and then the passes and
you just feel in, you hear that person made a lot of money, that
person made a lot of money, that person made a lot of money. And
you feel oh, I wish I knew now, going into that market is useless.
You know, it's that time has passed, people have made their
money and moved on. Now that time, it's on the housing market,
another time it's on, you know, something else. So these are
things like this. Now with us, what we have is we got our whole
life. And these markets are always high. They are always orphan
market, in the sense of assisting orphans. So essentially, don't we
want it that when we finish from this world, that we would have had
some, we would have had that investment as well.
It's not difficult, believe me, those who are sitting here today,
those who are listening, all you do is if you can't do it for
yourself, that's fine. Just get your family members to chip in. So
you got to you know, you're the husband, the husband and wife,
and you got children, children should have some savings as well
encourage the children say, Look, this is going to cost 3000 This is
a person, you know, give them dimension these narrations to
them. And say, we just need to put and believe me, children will help
you. Okay, here 20 pounds, 25 pounds from from from, from my
savings, 25 pounds from my savings. So get some money from
the children. Right? Even if that'd be five pounds, 10 pounds
of the you know, make them forego one one week of this money money.
That's how you're going to get them to learn how to spend for
others as well. Otherwise, they're going to be worried they're gonna
grow up selfish SubhanAllah. So get them to spend, believe me, try
this. And you will be surprised that even your your six year old
child will want to chip in Subhanallah, your six year old
child or child would want to chip in, you know, when you tell them
about what other people are suffering, and how children like
them don't get the food that these that our children get. So you get
that money together. And then
and then the mother and father can just put in the rest of the money.
And this way, it's it's done together. And that way you get
your whole family to take part. And believe me people have done
this. And it's very beneficial. And then, you know, you send that
money to a relief organization that's doing this. And then
several months after that.
Towards the end of the first year, you will get the information as to
who you're under you show that to the children, you show that to the
family and you know, everybody can really Subhanallah get excited
about this. So it's an investment. It's training for our children and
our families to do this as a whole together. And Allah has given us
this opportunity that Allah subhanaw taala will inshallah take
away Messiah and difficulties from us. If Allah is saying that if you
relieve a difficulty from another person in this world, Allah will
relieve a difficulty from you in the hereafter. Why wouldn't he
then relieve also a difficulty of yours in this world?
The only reason I think that's not mentioned is because when you look
at somebody else's difficulty that you don't have, then you feel you
have no difficulty. Though we do have other difficulties,
difficulties always come up.
But Allah subhanho wa Taala knows that we concern about the
hereafter. So he says you removed their difficulty now Allah will
remove the your difficulty in the hereafter. But that I believe that
includes removing our difficulties in this world because every good
deed does that for us.
So I'm not here to fundraise. I'm not here talking on behalf of
speaking on behalf of any organization. This is just
something that I think is very important for us to do. Right
really, and this is just a partial hope that we can do. And it allows
us to fulfill the command in the Quran to help the team not to
repel them, though they may not have come to our footsteps, our
doorsteps, but at the end of the day, we need to feel that this is
on our doorstep, because it could be anywhere tomorrow. And may
Allah subhanaw taala help us so gullible to Cremona Leah team. You
never honored the bit you never honored the orphan. When are we
going to ever do that? Subhanallah and in NEMA yet coluna and word
Alia Turnhout Gouldman. In Nehemiah coluna Fievel Tony him
Nara in surah. Nisa, Allah says that they eat they consume the
wealth of orphans oppressively all they're doing is they are feeding
their stomachs, Hellfire nest feeding their stomachs, fire from
the inferno. These are obviously people who are abusing your teams
today. Not giving them what they are owed, taking away their
parents wealth that they may have left for them. And Subhan Allah
Subhanallah I mean you look in the in the Quran surah calf, where
Hadith Ali Salam, he puts up that wall that was about to break even
though that look
In inhabitants they did not feed them Musa ism asked him why and
then later he found out he was because that wall was owned by to
what was the property or to your team to orphans parents had died
and there was some wealth buried there.
Allah subhanaw taala wanted him to put up that wall so that that
wealth of days would be preserved and they would find it when
they're older when it would be less open to abuse by people
around them. So we see that Allah divinely protects these kinds of
things. And see the see what see what how Allah loves these kinds
of people. So we want to inshallah benefit from Allah's love for
these kinds of people by assisting them because Allah loves those who
assist his bonds people. So may Allah subhanaw taala give us a
Tofik May Allah so every I want everybody to go home today
and talk this over with the family. Right? remember some of
these generations if you can, this video will be uploaded some time
inshallah in the near future on zum zum Academy if you want to
refer back to it, but otherwise you look online, you know, you
look in the Quran, you look in Hadith, you will find these
narrations just sit down with the family and sponsor your team this
weekend. May Allah subhanho wa Taala May Allah subhanaw taala
accept this from us. And may Allah subhanaw taala give us an
understanding of these things work with that one and then
hamdulillahi rabbil Alameen
