The best job that you can have in this world if you ask Allah

00:00:02 --> 00:00:05

subhanaw taala is a job that's related to your deen. I mean, what

00:00:05 --> 00:00:09

better job is there than an Imams job? I know you have to be

00:00:09 --> 00:00:13

Superman to be an Imam, because of the demands that everybody has off

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

you. But what better job is there than that? Seriously, I feel

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

really bad of letting it go. But I just couldn't do it anymore. But I

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

did it for eight years in America and you know, six years in

00:00:22 --> 00:00:26

England, right? Because you get to do your salad. And then you get

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

paid for that though your intention is not the pay if your

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

intention is I'm only doing this moment for the pay, then you're

00:00:32 --> 00:00:36

losing. But your your intention shouldn't be that why should it be

00:00:36 --> 00:00:40

that your intention should be that man Allah has given me a job that

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

relates to my Deen, similarly, teaching

00:00:44 --> 00:00:48

producing Islamic material, lots of things like that, that you

00:00:48 --> 00:00:48

could be doing

"I really think this is one of the greatest causes one could support"
