00:00:01 --> 00:00:02
			There was a certain man who was the
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			town drunk and this man died and the
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			people of the town refused to have him
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			buried. So this poor man's wife, she took
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			her husband's body and dragged it out to
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			the desert. And Arif Bilalah, a Gnostic is
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			walking by and helps her. And then the
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			wife says, do you know who this husband
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			of mine was? He was the town drunk.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			He said, I don't know about that. But
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			what I do know is last night I
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			had a dream and a voice told me
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			that tomorrow you're going to be walking in
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			the desert. You're going to see a woman
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			trying to bury her husband. Help her. Her
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			husband is a man of Jannah. And then
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			the people of the town approached this man's
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			wife. How can this man be a man
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			of Jannah? And she said, I can think
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			of 3 things. He was never devoid of
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			2 or 3 orphan. That he cared for
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			more than his own children. In the morning
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			when he would wake up from his wine,
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			he would go take a shower and then
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47
			he would go pray salatul fajr in the
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			masjid. And when he would come home at
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			night from his wine, he would fall on
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			his knees and say, Oh God, which corner
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			of * are you going to fill with
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			this wretched servant of yours? And he would
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			make tawba to Allah.
