			One person, he says that there was
a certain perfume that he was
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:10
			really interested in. But it's a
very top brand and the minimum the
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			cost is 170 pound for a bottle.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18
			So he didn't have the ability to
buy one. Then one day he went into
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			somebody's house,
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:25
			into the bathroom, and that person
had toiletries from that perfume
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			company, which must have been
worth several 100 pounds sitting
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			there as just general toiletries,
you know, hand washing, stuff like
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:36
			that. But for that person, it was
a casual thing, because he was
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			another level. So there's levels.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			What level has Allah placed you
at? Do Shakur at that level?
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			As long as you know, you have to
be happy with the level. If you
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			pretend simply try to get to
another level. That's a problem if
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			Allah takes you to another level
that's different.
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			But otherwise, stay at your level
and be satisfied.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			This is quite a profound
statement.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			A lot of people struggle with
this.
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:00
			A lot of people struggle with the
idea of
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			voluntary poverty
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:09
			and anger at not having what
others have.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			It's a major dilemma for a lot of
people. It keeps them awake at
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:17
			night. It keeps them frustrated.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:23
			Because maybe they've not been
able to make investments like
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			others have been able to, well,
they don't have a job that pays
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:31
			them as much, or they don't have a
husband, that can buy them what
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:33
			their friends husbands can buy
them.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:40
			And for the other people, it's the
other way round, lesser on a
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			lesser level, it's the other way
around.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			They don't value what Allah has
given them.
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			So what he says this essentially
what He says He says no that love
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			for wealth.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57
			Despite Allah subhanaw taala
choosing for his servant poverty
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			is anger.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			You he's basically anger with
Allah.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:08
			It's forcing yourself to become
angry for no reason. That's a hoot
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			in Arabic, when he sought the
concept of becoming angry the
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:17
			sofort when you put it into that
verb form, then it becomes more of
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:22
			a sense of a forced to anger or
pretense of anger or an
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:27
			unreasonable anger. And then he
says the love of poverty, the love
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			of poverty, the love of needy love
of being media would say
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36
			fucker is actually means if the
car which means the need for
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:41
			something that someone else, which
Why would you do that? Because you
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			think yourself poor. That's why.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:47
			So a faqeer is the one who's
needy. That's why they use the
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			word faqeer for somebody who is
needy for people's help and
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			assistance and money and food and
so on. But they also use the word
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:58
			Fakir for the one who's in need of
Allah who has considered himself
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:59
			in the path
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:04
			to be looked after by Allah
subhanaw taala to get close to
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:08
			Allah. So essentially, they call
Sufis faqeer that they call them
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			for killers as well. And you
wonder why? It's because what it
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			really means in its essence is
need.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			Need, that's really what it is.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:23
			Now Ilaha illa Allah, so the love
of being MIDI, obviously not to
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			Allah, that's not what he's
speaking because that's
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28
			recommended because we are in need
of Allah, we can't escape that.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			Even though Allah subhanaw taala
has chosen for that seven,
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:38
			enrichment and wealth and
abundance, then that's oppression.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:43
			He calls that oppression. And he
said, all of this really is away
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:47
			from the middle part. Because both
of these are not the middle part.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:52
			They both extremes, what the
middle path would be, and he says
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			each of these things is either
running away from sugar for
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			thankfulness, gratitude for what
Allah has given you.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:05
			little little Meriva because you
just don't know enough of why and
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:09
			what's the purpose behind these
things and the benefits behind
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:09
			these things.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			And he says, it also leads to
wasting your time.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			Because you're wasting your time
in the redundant if that's what
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:22
			Allah has chosen for you accept it
and take it and fulfill the rights
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:25
			of that position that Allah has
given you. Otherwise, you're
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			wasting your time and trying to do
the opposite, to get to the
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:29
			opposite.
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:33
			Now, you're obviously as you know,
there's a lot of wasting of time
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:38
			to try to make more money, or to
try to get more, there's no doubt
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:42
			about that, that that does take a
long time. But Allah has given us
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:46
			the stream that we have that we're
on. To get more than that, you're
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:49
			going to have to make more effort,
that's a waste of time and you're
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:53
			not doing maybe there's going to
be negligence, generally, there's
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:56
			going to be negligence, where very
few people are able to make a lot
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:01
			of money, if it's not just coming
easily, without sacrificing a
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			number of other things.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:06
			Because it's all require
sacrifice, people don't become
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:10
			wealthy just like that. Most
people don't. And likewise, the
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14
			other way around, which is a bit
more complicated. If you already
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:19
			have a lot a lot than to try to
have nothing. Why would you do
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22
			that there's a way to there's a
way to deal with that is an easier
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:26
			way to deal with that. So he says
all of that is a wasting of your
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:33
			time due to just having a
deficiency in knowledge. What is
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			this, this principle that he's
laying out this advice that he's
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			giving? What's the background to
it, some of it is clear to
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:43
			understand some of it is a bit
more complicated, because I think
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:47
			many of us, I think, as I said,
the majority of people are trying
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:49
			to become wealthier than they are.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:53
			And they think they're needing
What does need mean, what does
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			poverty mean? That's relative.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:00
			There's people who have very,
very, very little, and they think
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03
			they're fine. And there's people
who have a little and they they
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			are poor. And they need because
they have to keep going to ask
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:08
			them, they're constantly worried
about what's going to happen
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:11
			tomorrow, and whether you're going
to be able to feed their family.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:14
			And there's other people who have
a lot and they have abundant more
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			than anybody else. And they still
think they are in need. And they
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:19
			still think they have to because
they're competing with somebody
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:23
			else. So whenever it's an
unhealthy form of need at whatever
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26
			level you are, that's what he
refers to. That's why I believe
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:30
			that it's rough depends on the
person and their culture, and what
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			they have.
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:36
			If you're used to a certain, and
it's easy for you to have that
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:41
			standard of living, which may be a
lot higher than somebody else. But
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:44
			that's just normal for your your
family, you don't do any extra
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			effort for that, that's what you
do,
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:50
			then SR for you will be beyond
that. But this would be extra for
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:54
			somebody else, who's much at a
lower level. The simplest way to
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			understand that is
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			an example that once we were in
Hajj in the European tents, you
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:05
			know, the European American tents
in Mina, which is of a decent
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			standard, even there, you get a
few different classes, you know,
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:12
			you get some without the ACS and
some with the ACS and some that
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:17
			are slightly smaller, better, more
plush sleeping facilities and
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20
			others that just have a little rug
on the floor, and you have to take
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			your own sleeping bag, and you do
get that difference. So once what
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			happens is, as you probably know
that there's always those people
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:31
			that then sneak in, or however
they get in, and they then sleep
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:35
			on the streets outside the tents,
and they put up rough shelters or
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:37
			they just put a sheet on the floor
and they stay there. They
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:40
			generally from other countries,
they generally not. They don't
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:43
			have permits to come for Hajj. So
what happens is that the people in
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:48
			the tent from primarily from the
UK, and maybe some Americans or
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			whatever, they start to feel
really angry that why are the
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			Saudi government doing this to
these people? Why are they leaving
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			them on the street for
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:01
			so is a lot of frustration? And
rightly so but maybe misplaced
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			completely? You know, the emotion
was right, maybe. But I said,
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:07
			look, the thing is that they're
not supposed to be there. You
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:10
			know, they have a system of
accommodating this many pilgrims
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			and each area has their own
according to the standard in those
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:15
			areas. I mean,
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			according to their country, and
according to an each country has
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:21
			probably, you know, highest
standard tents and lowest and the
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			tendency is what you pay for you
get.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			So they they're not really
supposed to be here. They come in
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			here and then in a day or two on
the second day or third day, it'll
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:32
			make it a market. You know,
they're selling everything and
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			they come here for a reason. And
they've chosen to do this because
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:35
			they can
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:40
			they can deal with this. We
couldn't see out there. I said you
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:44
			guys could not sleep out there.
Like you could not do a hedge like
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:47
			that. That's why you've paid for
this. There's other people who
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:50
			could not even do your hedge.
That's where they've paid to be
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:56
			next to the gym rat in absolute
five star tents, where they have
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			food running the whole day and ice
cream available whenever you want
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			and so on and so
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			fourth, that's not what you've
chosen that would have cost you
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:06
			like three or 4000 pounds more.
But you've chosen this, and
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			they've chosen that.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			So that's not as rough.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:17
			That's not as rough. The other
story that I think I may have
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:20
			mentioned to you before when I was
studying in southern poor,
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:25
			that's in up. And Jerry people
they are poorer than they are in
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:28
			Gujarat because Gujarat state has
a lot of people outside. So they
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:31
			tend to be a bit wealthier. But
there was some Gujarati students
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:37
			there. I was from England, and I
was there with my wife and child
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:40
			living in a house outside and not
in the madrasa. But when they had
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			to do a bit of shopping
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46
			after class, and then we had to go
somewhere. So I took this student
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49
			along with me he was not a up
student or from Bengal or Bihar,
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			or one of the poorest states. He
was actually from Gujarat. Okay.
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:56
			But he didn't come from a very
wealthy background either.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:03
			So quickly what we did I went into
a shop and I spent 200 rupees 200
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:05
			rupees and very quickly just
bought like a few things that I
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:08
			needed for the house because I had
a family with me. 200 rupees is
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:12
			about just two pounds something
but $3.02 pounds something it's
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:13
			not much money, right?
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:17
			That was kind of my two three days
shopping.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:22
			And I came back and then we went
wherever we needed to go and then
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:27
			after the next day in class, he
says, You did so much ethnicity
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:28
			Fazal hijiki.
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:31
			Like you
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:35
			how do you say that in English,
you squandered so much money
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:39
			yesterday, you know, squandered so
much money. It's like extra for
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:40
			tab zero. You know?
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:44
			I didn't realize that what he's
saying like, What do you mean?
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			You go to England, I mean, you can
you spend, can you go into any
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			shopping spend just to partner
like any supermarket? You know?
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:54
			It's like impossible, right? Okay,
we are talking about 20 years ago,
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:55
			but still.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:02
			So you see where he was coming
from, he got a monthly stipend
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:05
			from the madrasa of 40 rupees.
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:10
			And in 10, in five minutes, I had
spent five months of his salary,
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:13
			his stipend. So for him that was
like,
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:18
			you know, it's like, somebody
takes you to a really posh
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:23
			restaurant, and they spend, I
don't know, 1000 pounds there. In
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:26
			one meal, like, are you crazy? You
know, we just about spending
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:31
			40 50% If you're lucky, you know.
And this is like he spends several
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:36
			100 pounds, is that kind of crazy.
So it's the everybody looks at it
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:40
			from their perspective. And if
what you're doing is just normal
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:45
			for you, not pretenses, not over
the top, not arrogant not for
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			show, then that's your level.
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:55
			One person, he says that there was
a certain perfume that he was
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:59
			really interested in. But it's a
very top brand and the minimum
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			because he's 170 pounds for a
bottle.
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:07
			So he didn't have the ability to
buy one. Then one day he went into
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:08
			somebody's house
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:14
			into the bathroom, and that person
had toiletries from that perfume
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:18
			company, which must have been
worth several 100 pounds sitting
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:22
			there as just general toiletries,
you know, hand washing, stuff like
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:25
			that. But for that person, it was
a casual thing, because he was
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:28
			another level. So there's levels.
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:33
			What level is Allah placed you at?
Do Shakur at that level?
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:38
			As long as you know, you have to
be happy with the level. If you
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			pretend simply try to get to
another level. That's a problem if
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			Allah takes you to another level
that's different.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:48
			But otherwise, stay at your level
and be satisfied.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:53
			That's what he's saying. He's
saying with Artica and Eman al
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:56
			honey EULA Usili who who alphacom
Because at the end of the day,
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:59
			it's the faith we have to get by
in the world but then it's the
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:03
			faith that counts for the purpose
of the Hereafter for the ultimate
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:08
			life. And he says with Erica Eman
oh honey yella Usili who will
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:11
			fucker what Emmanuel 40 Rila Usili
hoo hoo Alina
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:16
			Camacho I feel hungry and Allah
Hytera hole in them in arriba the
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:19
			man la Usili who Imana who inland
Fokker
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:25
			Wello an A to hula of Sega who
Dalek we're in the mean Eva de
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:31
			Manila Usili. Who who Imana in la
marina. Well, of course, to who
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:36
			the sender who Dalek? Well, that
really hits it on the head. He
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:38
			says because
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:43
			ultimately, the asset of value
that we need to be concerned about
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			is our faith and developing that
faith and maintaining and
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:51
			preserving that faith, augmenting,
enhancing, strengthening that
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:54
			faith. So he says that the faith
of a wealthy one.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			Poverty can never reform that
person's faith and
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			Be very hard,
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:08
			it will be very hard for that
person to be reformed by poverty.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:13
			And the faith of poor person
cannot be reformed by
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:19
			cannot be reformed by wealth or
substance.
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:21
			And then he quotes a hadith,
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:26
			a hadith Bootsy. He says the
Hadith could see so Allah subhanho
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			wa Taala says that among my
servants are those
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:37
			whose Iman can only be enhanced
and made better by poverty.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:41
			I know that Allah is saying that
that is what's good for the Iman.
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			And if I had enriched them, it
would corrupt them.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			They'd be corrupted
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:53
			by wealth, there's a lot of people
who have been corrupted by wealth.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			I mean, you must have seen it.
There's a lot of people who've
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57
			been corrupted by what they were
fine when they were getting
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:01
			getting by. And when they had too
much, they just changed their
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			character and he messed up
everything their behavior,
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:08
			conduct, Outlook. And he says
there's some of my servants whose
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			Eman can only be reformed by
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:18
			the by Xena by independence, by
wealth, and if I was to
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:22
			force them into need that would
corrupt them.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:27
			Essentially, this is almost like
saying the radar will cover.
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:30
			Ultimately, that's what it is
right to be satisfied with Allah's
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:35
			decree about you. This doesn't
mean that if you are genuinely
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:38
			struggling that you don't make an
effort, the effort is there. But
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			effort for what that's that's the
thing. Everybody makes an effort,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:45
			the wealthy make an effort, the
poor make an effort, but what are
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:49
			we making an effort for? We made
an effort to be satisfied. But
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:55
			then what satisfaction? That's the
question. And how does one gain a
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:00
			satisfaction for a balanced
satisfaction, because some people
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:05
			are not satisfied with abundance,
and some people are satisfied with
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:08
			less? Well, the Prophet sallallahu
Sallam gave us many ways of doing
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11
			that. And he said, don't look at
people above you in wealth,
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:15
			because then that is what you will
be encouraged to do.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			And others are saying don't be
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:23
			low. In fact, look at the people
below you so you can actually have
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:23
			thanks.
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:28
			It's a dilemma. It's a dilemma.
The world is a dilemma. The world
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:30
			is a fitna the world is
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:35
			it's an it's unnecessary, it's a
place to be in because that's
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:38
			where we are. And that's where the
value is to be able to prepare our
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			hereafter but otherwise difficult.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:44
			So let's just say you've got a
house and you're trying to now
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:50
			decorate your house. And you want
because you want to do some other
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:54
			work, which is more important for
you, you just want to decorate it
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:58
			to a decent level and then carry
on. So you talk to somebody you
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			see other places and somebody
gives you an idea now don't get
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:06
			that paint, do it a very specific
color dewar. So do a would you
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:10
			call it the the one wall needs to
be special? Would you call that a
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:14
			feature wall? And for that, oh,
this special wallpapers and
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:20
			finishes and, and all of that you
can do for there? Like why? Why
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:24
			would you do that just need just
basic decent white paint and get
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:28
			on with it. So now that's where
you're going to be bringing your
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:32
			guests so you know it's something
you do once and for all the last
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			few 10 years you know you're not
going to do it every two years or
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:39
			whatever some people do actually
do. I do did know somebody who
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			used to decorate their front room
and middle row maybe as well.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:48
			Every two three years on an effort
Subhanallah that's like literally
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:51
			I live to be here you know
Subhanallah
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:57
			it's a it's a crazy one. So this
made the person quite confused
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			because just wants to get it over
and done where they made it
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:03
			confused. said should we do that
then then discussed with his wife
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:08
			and said no, no, no, no, this so
says we've got a feature wall
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:11
			already. It's going to be the
books. The key tabs, they're going
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:14
			to be the feature. That's the
future for us finish. You just
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			need white paint.
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:19
			Henry there's no end to this
otherwise and it's not haram that
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:23
			you decorate it. It's not haram
either. This is what's your
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:24
			priority. What do you want to do?
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			You just want something function
functionable and decent.
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:36
			That's where it gets confusing.
That's where it gets confusing
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:40
			because it dunya will provide to
you mashallah, it lays down you
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:44
			know everything behind the theory.
The dunya will lay down all of his
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:46
			glamorous all of his adornments
and there is no end to it of what
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:47
			you can get.
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:53
			For from you know, intricate
decorations to intricate finishes
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:55
			of, you know everything. It's just
you can do it.
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			Yes, you don't want to get the
cheapest
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			That's another dilemma. You can't
get the cheapest because you're
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:07
			going to be fixing it again soon.
So you can't get that either. So
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			then it requires you to make an
effort to find the right balance,
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:15
			the right quality at the right
price and the right standard. And
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:16
			it's difficult, it's confusing.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			Some people enjoy this.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:26
			They thrive on it. Allah make it
easy. I guess it depends on what
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:27
			your goal is in it.
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:32
			If that is your goal, that's your
showpiece of your life. I worked
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			hard and this is my showpiece.
Now, let me invite you into my
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:39
			showpiece. It's not just a place
of temporary stay, but it's a
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:42
			showpiece that I need to show you
this is my accomplishment.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:46
			A lot of get people get caught up
in that May Allah protect us
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:50
			there's a there's a there's a
temptation that's difficult. So
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:51
			this hadith
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:58
			is related this hadith al kotse
that we just read Hadith al Kotze
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:01
			it's related from an asymptomatic
or the Allahu Anhu that
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:06
			La ilaha illallah the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:10
			related from Jibreel allihies
Salah who related from ALLAH
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:14
			SubhanA wa Tada that meant 100 D
When Ian forgot the bars and he
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			will Mahara.
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:22
			So, that's the beginning of the
Hadith that I just mentioned
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24
			earlier, that whoever
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:26
			humiliates
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:34
			disgraces thinks lightly and looks
down upon a friend of mine, then
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:38
			he's essentially call for a war
with me is declared a war with me.
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:43
			And then it carries on it sir, is
related by Abu yalla bizarre, the
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:48
			Barani and ignobly dunya. In
Kitab, Al Olia, the vocal Kitab
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:52
			Alia. So this is what a person
should think this hadith tells us
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:55
			that what a person should think,
which is that if Allah has
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:59
			dealt recently with a person who
has a
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:04
			very advanced position, in a
particular field of research, like
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:08
			cutting edge, extremely important
research.
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:15
			That is a really important, it's a
really important aspect of human
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:19
			life and research. And he's made a
lot of money in that. But he's
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:23
			become religious, and turned to
Allah subhanaw taala. And now, I
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:26
			think it's the shaytaan, who came
to him and said, You need to give
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:28
			all of this up, go on retreat
somewhere. And
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:31
			and
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:37
			I spoke to him I had him speak to
another big shake, and ended up
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:39
			that we both said to him, that
you're, it's a mistake what you're
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:43
			making, because you may feel fine
about it for a few months
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:45
			afterwards, and then you start
missing it, because you're not
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:50
			used to that. And what we want you
to do is, so until now you're in
		
00:22:50 --> 00:22:55
			full dunya your your whole pursuit
was the dunya. And now mashallah,
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:59
			you've got the consciousness, and
the conscience of Allah subhanaw
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:03
			taala. So you want to make it full
Dean. But you can't really escape
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:08
			the dunya you just have to make
sure it's not in your heart. And
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:12
			what you have is an asset that you
can help a lot of people with,
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:16
			both in terms of influence of
position and the expertise and the
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:19
			money, you know, that there's a
lot that you can do. So what we
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:22
			need you to do, and this is what
the accomplishment is that you
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:27
			marry the two together. So you
carry on, but then you are making
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:31
			sure that you maintain your faith,
enhance your faith, make up your
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:36
			cover prayers, etc, etc. And make
sure that you are able to achieve
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:36
			both.
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:39
			So now what happens is that
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:43
			when you start doing it, because
you don't know how to do that,
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			there's a lot of people who don't
need know how to balance the deen
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:46
			and duniya
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:51
			the faith and the world. They've
been so much interval they just
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:54
			don't understand they think that
Allah ma don't have any fun or
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:58
			righteous people don't have any
dunya at all. Because why? Why do
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:00
			they think that because generally,
a lot of the time when we
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:04
			mentioned the stories of the
righteous ones we mentioned, the
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:08
			rather extreme stories, the perf
stories of absolute perfection,
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:12
			where people like Imam was already
saying you should have nothing,
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:17
			you know, the absolute Zoid
stories. And that's they are
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:21
			they're valid stories and they're
good stories, but they're not easy
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:25
			for everyone to attain not not
straight away anyway. So they they
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:30
			miss understand where they're
supposed to go with this. So what
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:33
			happens then with such people is
that they go either back too much
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:37
			into the dunya because they don't
know the balance or they go. I
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:40
			mean, there's probably less too
much to the dean because the dunya
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:45
			pulls further. So you have to help
them balance themselves to get
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:46
			both rights.
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:50
			And that's important.
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:56
			Then their work will become their
dunya will become Dean, when
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:59
			they're doing that for the right
reason. That will become a source
		
00:24:59 --> 00:24:59
			of
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:01
			reward for them as well because
you just have to change the
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:05
			intention now. So why give
something like that up?
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:11
			May Allah make it easy for people
to move over? Otherwise a lot of
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:16
			people think that there's no fun
and enjoyment in the deen. It's
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:23
			dry and there's nothing what
Catholica facility was second. The
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:29
			next point he makes is what
cathodic of his sanity was
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:33
			Secondly, from an out of Allah
Allah Miata him who woman for Hema
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:36
			and Allah, he wrote the Ebihara E,
while hola Mia Coonley earlier
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:40
			enemy ILAHA The hill is like a fat
tomb. Rob Booker, Yeah, hello,
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:44
			coma Yasha way after Mark and
Allahumma Fira.
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:49
			He says the same dilemma people
have with regards to say,
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:53
			regards to good health and bad
health.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:59
			When you in bad health and you
want good health, of course you
		
00:25:59 --> 00:25:59
			want good health.
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:05
			And you should want good health. I
mean, you can have good health but
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			of course you can also decide with
Allah subhanaw taala that I'll
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:08
			leave it to you.
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:11
			And likewise, if you have saved
her, why would somebody wants to
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:15
			come? I'm not sure. So but he says
that whoever knows Allah, the main
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:18
			purpose is that when you know
Allah, the whole purpose of all of
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:20
			this is that once you know Allah
subhanho wa Taala and that He
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:22
			cares for you, especially if
you're doing the right thing, and
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:25
			it's not going to be a punishment.
As long as you you're making an
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:29
			effort and you love Allah, then
Allah will love you, then Allah
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:33
			loves you anyway. So the main
thing is that whoever recognize
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:36
			Allah subhanaw taala will not be
suspicious of Allah will not
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:40
			accuse Allah will not have bad
ideas about Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:46
			Right. And whoever then
understands this from Allah,
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:51
			Whoever understands Allah has
wisdom, and Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:54
			is decree gets an understanding of
it gives himself up around the
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:58
			cover he he will be satisfied
satisfied with Allah's decree, and
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:02
			then they will make the most of
the situation they're in. That's
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:04
			why he says that for the people of
knowledge, if they can, if they
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:08
			just had one verse, that would be
sufficient. This one verse just
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:10
			gives them everything for the
people of knowledge, those who
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:15
			have an understanding of how, who
need an understanding of how
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:19
			things work within the divine
realm. And the verse is, your Lord
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:26
			creates what he wishes and chooses
what he wishes. Your Lord chooses
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:31
			and create as and what he wishes,
they have absolutely no option.
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:37
			It's Allah's choice. So go with
that choice.
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:44
			Allah subhanho wa taala. Grant us
a balance. May Allah grant us a
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:47
			balance may Allah grant us
satisfaction with what we have.
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:52
			And when the when the dunya does
come to us.
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:57
			If it's good for us, Allah allow
us to accept it in the best of
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:02
			ways, and if it's not good for us,
then Allah do not indulge us in it
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:05
			do not allow us to become
engrossed in it. And in the
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:06
			pursuit of it.
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:13
			Utility utility is important.
Utility is important when you do
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:17
			something for its benefit, but you
better have your idea of benefit,
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:20
			right? All of these things are
subjective, that's what I want you
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:23
			doing because it's useful, like
what do you mean by useful how
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:27
			useful it is, is it and a way to
find out if we're going wrong or
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:32
			if we if we're thinking it's too
if we're, if our idea of what's
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:36
			useful and beneficial is a bit
beyond what it should be, then we
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:41
			ask others as two or three people
and you will get the right kind of
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:46
			idea from them as to where the
balance is. Find people that you
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:51
			respect for their moderation. Find
people that you respect for the
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:57
			balance and ask them what do you
think in this situation?
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:01
			And that's how you'll get it
right. These are practical
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:05
			considerations because
subjectivity is a really big
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:08
			dilemma for a lot of people.
People think haram things that
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:11
			correct for them are justified for
them because of a subjective way
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:14
			of thinking about them. So we
can't rely on ourselves many of
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:16
			the time we have to ask others
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:20
			and I think that's how we will get
a balance may Allah grant us a
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:23
			balance. Well, he did that run and

			us to become true Muhammad, these
two representatives of Allah both

			for the benefit of the Day of
Judgment, so that he can recognize

			us and he doesn't turn his face
away from us. And for people to
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:42
			understand who Prophet Muhammad
Sallallahu sallam was truly was in

			this world of Allah, there is no
other way they will find out who
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:50
			the Prophet said Allah was unless
they except with what we can
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:53

behavior that we can
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:59
			show them how Allah make this easy
for us. Oh Allah make this easy
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:02

			Allah grant us, grant us a

00:34:28 --> 00:34:31
			for us and accept us for the
service of your dean, except us
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:34
			for the service of your dean
Subhanallah decarbonize that
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:38
			yamnaya Say phone was salam ala l
Mursaleen. Al Hamdulillah, he
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:38
			opened
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:45
			the point of a lecture is to
encourage people to act to get
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:50
			further an inspiration and
encouragement, persuasion. The
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:54
			next step is to actually start
learning seriously to read books
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:57
			to take on a subject of Islam and
to understand all the subjects of
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:59
			Islam at least at the basic level.
So
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:03
			so that we can become more aware
of what our Dean wants from us.
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:07
			And that's why we started Rayyan
courses so that you can actually
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:11
			take organize lectures on demand
whenever you have free time,
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:16
			especially, for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:20
			have on the Islamic essentials
certificate which you take 20
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:24
			Short modules, and at the end of
that inshallah you will have
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:29
			gotten the basics of most of the
most important topics in Islam and
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:31
			you'll feel a lot more confident.
You don't have to leave lectures
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:34
			behind you can continue to live,
you know, to listen to lectures,
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:38
			but you need to have this more
sustained steady as well as aka la
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:40
