And finally I shattered the Allahu anha relates in this hadith by
Imam Muhammad and Imam blks related both of these from
actually the Allahu Ana sorry lice Allah Allah Azza McCall, a dunya
the Roman La da Allah wa lumen la mala whether her Yajima Omen la
colada
beautiful expression, the dunya is the final abode of the one who has
no or is the abode for the one who has no other about.
It's the home for the one who has no other home. It is the wealth
for the one who has no other wealth. And the one who gathers
for it is the one who has no intelligence.
Just straight shooting words. The reason he's trying to say this is
that if a person's dollar of the era is the real world, then he's
going to be spending in making that, you know, you've got so many
people in this country. They live in squalid states, but they have
made mansions in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. There are crazy
people like this.
You must know
they stay in council properties here.
And in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and these countries, some
countries more than others is like this. They're building these big
magnificent palatial homes in their villages. So the people
there think this guy is living in some kind of Splenda in the UK
when it comes to UK is poor guy working two jobs and all the rest
of it. And his intention is one day I will retire there for
whatever reason he doesn't he goes dies here
you can't give up how many people really leave and gone retire like
this, how many do that? Very few, very few, the very lucky few that
lucky. So that can you see the foolishness in that. On a larger
scale our foolishness is when we just focus on the dunya to such a
degree that we don't even worry about the home in the other place,
which is Janna.
So we're not focused on building that home at all. All our focus is
building the home here.
If you're looking to upscale buy a new home in this world or
whatever, don't just do the offer that you have to do the off
everything don't just say oh like give me a bigger home. Or like
first say oh Allah grant me agenda torture dose. And Allah give me a
larger home in this world
protocols and ask for it he said, Allah Who McFeely them be will
certainly if he does it automatically for you this be
of ALLAH forgive my sin first long Philip MB, then give me expansion
in my home
and give me Baraka in my sustenance. So nothing wrong with
wanting something a bit more spacious, to be more relaxed in
it, there's benefits to it, otherwise you're in everybody
else's hair. You know, a lot more arguments are created like that.
So it's nice to have something because there's nothing wrong with
that.
But
what is your real home? Where do you want to go? Is that even in
your mind?
What is your ambition is your ambition for this world is your
ambition for the hereafter?
That's why the prophets Allah some in many Hadith he reflected on
this. That's why Allah says in the Quran, we're in the devil. Here
Allah he'll Haiwan Low Can We are the moon.
The hereafter is the real life
is the real world.
That is the higher one that is the real life, if only they knew, if
only they got it.
And the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Allahu Allah insha, Allah
Insha Allah,
Allah, Allah, there is no life except the life of the hereafter,
or a difference in perspective. That's why the prophets Allah Some
said that this dunya can only be the house of the one who has no
other house.
Why would you do it otherwise?
Over here to dunya Illa Metatron Hooroo. This dunya is just a
substance for deception. So that's exactly why he said that. This
wealth is for the person who has no other wealth.
You will get the other world just on your intention if you want to.
That's the power of the moments intention. If every day you
thought about Jana, you will get it on just your intention, because
that will drive you to do better in this world. But if you'd never
think about your paradise, because all we're worried about is uh,
hopefully we'll kind of stumble into paradise one day, you know,
we've had so many physeal of Paradise and Allah's forgiveness.
So, you know, I landed habla Ilaha illa Allah
So somehow I'll just kind of get in. But it's about just getting
in. Can you imagine just getting into London and not knowing where
to stay? Of course paradise is different place, not London, but,
you know, let's aim for something just on that intention, just the
aim of gin nutrifit though so a special agenda. It will change
your life and your perspective about this life. So ask Allah for
whatever you want, but also ask at the same time for the hereafter.
Then it makes a difference.
