If I'm looking for a new car, and I decided that I'm going to buy a

00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

BMW two series, what happens I didn't know much about that car.

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

But now that it's a candidate, I will start learning more about it.

00:00:11 --> 00:00:14

I'll go for a test drive, I asked other owners about it, I'll check

00:00:14 --> 00:00:18

online reviews. And slowly, slowly, if it's worth it, then the

00:00:18 --> 00:00:23

qualities of it will stand out, and they will find the place in my

00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

heart. That's why when you're trying to buy a house or a car,

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

don't ever get emotionally attached, because if you don't get

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

it,

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

then you're going to be really sad, likewise with a spouse,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

because we get emotionally attached, the only one that you

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

should be getting emotionally attached with Allah and Rasulullah

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

because that's where that emotion is going to produce something for

00:00:43 --> 00:00:47

us, in this world in the Hereafter. Only get emotionally

00:00:47 --> 00:00:51

attached with them in that sense. That's and then you can be

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

emotionally attached to anybody else for their sake, but not for

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

anything else's sake on its own.
