			Fear Allah and say that which is correct, he will correct for you your deeds and forgive you your
sins and whoever obeys Allah and His messenger. Then they are indeed victorious. As for what follows
all praises due to Allah we seek His guidance and his forgiveness and we seek refuge in Allah from
the evil of ourselves and the whispering of our desires from Allah guides. No one can misguide and
whom he allows to be misled. No one can guide and I bear witness that there is nothing worthy of
worship except Allah alone. Having no partners in that Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam limits
his slave and His messenger and his perfect worshiper.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:12
			La xojo.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:48
			He tells us, that of the ways that he designed mankind, and while Allah azza wa jal placed in us
instincts of the great instincts and desires that he placed in our hearts is the love of money.
Allah says Xuyen alienness her Boucher Hawa, Mina Nyssa, he will burn in well panoply on 30 minutes
the hubby will feel bought while hailing Misawa. What an annual health. Allah azza wa jal says it's
been made beautified for people,
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:56
			the love of their desires, and then he lists them. And the first is he says a nice up the love of
women.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			And then children
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:06
			will come Kantara incredibly large sums of gold and silver
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:20
			and fine branded horses and cattle until I land. And Allah azza wa jal says that is the enjoyment of
the worldly life. And Allah azza wa jal with Allah is the best return.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:26
			And we are told by Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that our love for wealth has no end.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:49
			It doesn't end with a six figure salary, it doesn't end with a million dollars it doesn't end with
to the province from Allah it was, he says, that if the son of Adam had Why do you mean that law
have been in your corner who are the and if a person had two valleys or had a single valley of gold,
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:57
			they would still love the son of Adam, the daughter of Adam, the child of Adam would still love to
have a second
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:08
			William Lofa who inlet to rob where tube Allahu Allah men tab. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam says
the only thing that will fill the mouth of the son of Adam
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:55
			is dust, meaning death. And Allah azza wa jal accepts the repentance of those who repent to Him. And
so this desire that we have that is so deep that Allah azza wa jal placed in our hearts and placed
in our design is not something that is ever going to be satisfied unless we come to terms with it.
And until we become people of contentment, and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam when he commanded us or
he instructed us and he says, Kenya can have Pana have contentment and you will be other than us,
you will be the richest of the person because true richness is to not need any more. And so if a
person still feels like they are in need, then no matter how much they have, they will always be in
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			a state of poverty, no matter how much they have. And so
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:41
			Today I wanted to speak about something that remedies this desire. And something that cures this
desire and purifies this desire and that is charity. And that is charity. Allah azza wa jal has
obligated on our wealth. A charity that we give that is obligatory called Zeca. And a charity that
we give that is voluntary and that is sadaqa. And Allah azza wa jal pairs, Zakah and Salah in the
Quran, in over 80 places in the Quran, a common Surah Zeca the ones who established the prayer and
they give the charity they establish the prayer and they give the charity and Allah azza wa jal made
the giving of charity and attribute of the people of Bill of righteousness. Allah Azza says Lacell

I told my Allah Allah Who beat they will call bow your time I will Misaki Allah azza wa jal, he says
the one who gives
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:40
			the relatives the one who gives wealth even though they have need of it, who do they give this
wealth to? They give it to their relatives, they give it to their kin. They distribute it amongst
them, and they give to the orphans and they give to the poor weapons said he was sorry, he didn't
offer that up and gives to the ones who are asking and gives to those who are enslaved. While kama
salatu is a Kata when we're following him either I do a Siberian I feel about circular Bhadra or
worried about so that he can let you know Sadako Allah, Allah azza wa jal says and those who are
patients in poverty and hardship and during battle, those are the ones who have been true and it is
		
00:06:40 --> 00:07:00
			those who are the righteous and Allah azza wa jal he made the giving of charity and attributes of
the people of paradise Allah so yes, it's in a cleaner future nothing are you see the Anima atta
hombre boo him in the home can acapella singing. Allah describes the people of paradise to be in
gardens, surrounded by gardens and springs.

room, Allah says and their wealth, there is a portion there is a right that they give to those who
are asking them and those who are in who are prevented those who don't have wealth. And little Sulu
last Allah Allah Allah who has said, was the most generous of the people. The Prophet sallallahu
		
00:07:41 --> 00:08:12
			Sallam has it been Abbas he says that Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam kind of edge with the NAS, the
Prophet sallallaahu Salam was the most generous of the people. And this is a statement that you hear
so much in Ramadan, and he was the most generous in Ramadan when he would be like, the wind. The
wind touches everything when it blows past and so the prophets Allah Allah they send them was the
most generous, yet his family, Adam hammer salatu salam, they're also known as being the most
generous. There is a story of an Hassan and Hussein and Jafar even Abdullah Abdullah of new Jaffa,
the son of their cousin
		
00:08:13 --> 00:09:00
			Joshua, I've lived in Jaffa and has an Hussein, we're traveling, and they had come across a they had
come across a rest stop or a tent in their travel. And they found a single woman there. Her husband
had gone out with the pasture. And they asked her if there was any food. And she said, we don't have
any food. I don't have anything. We don't possess anything except for this small, skinny goat. And
we did would you offer it to us. And so this woman, even though she didn't have anything, she could
not be inhospitable to these people. And so she offered it to them. And they sacrificed it. And that
said, we're a group of people from Medina. If you ever make your way to Medina, then we would love
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:01
			to be able to thank you for that.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:11
			Her husband comes home, where's our goat? She says, Some people came and I needed to give it to
them. I needed to honor our guests. And he said, Why did you do that? And he
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			he was very vexed. Let's just say
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			he was very colorful in his language.
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:49
			They ended up having to pack their backs when the villages and the people of the countryside no
longer able to feed themselves. What do they do? They make way to the nearest city. And their city
that they went to was Medina. And she her husband became a carrier of wood there. And as she was
walking one day down the streets of Medina she meets and hasn't. And he recognizes her and she
doesn't remember him. And so he says to her, Do you remember me? And she says, No. And then he says,
Don't you remember when me and my brothers were traveling such and such a new? He said, Hold on wait
here.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:59
			And then he goes, and he sends for a servant to come. And he brings her back 10,000 gold coins, or
what was equal
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			To 10,000. And he says, now go visit my brother and present and go tell him what I did.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:36
			And she's completely overwhelmed. She's this generosity, this benevolence, this thankfulness. She
goes to her brother. And she says, Well, your brother sent me to you. And he says, What did my
brother do? And she says, He gave me 10,000. She says, Okay, wait here. And then he goes, and he
brings 10,000 on her sandal, the Allah and when he gives it to her, and then he says, now go to my
brother, meaning his cousin, have to live in a job for and then he says to her, when she comes to
have the lightning job. He says to her, Well, what did my two brothers do? She said,
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:55
			overwhelming me. One gave me 10,000 And the other he match. And then he says to her, Well wait here.
And then he goes, and he doubles it. He matches both of them together. 20,000 and he brings it to
her. And then he says, No, but that TV, that's up to him. He says, If you had started with me, I
would have made it really hard for them.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:11:04
			I would have made it really hard for them. But this was the benevolence and the generosity of the
family of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam and they were known for that debate.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:10
			But this concept of giving and giving and giving and Allah Azza says Linton
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:24
			Boone, Allah Azza says you will never attain righteousness until you give from what you love. And
the examples of that from a sort of loss of a light SLM are too many, why is it that we find
hesitancy to give
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:40
			because of the promise or the threat of shaytaan? Allah Azza shaytaan we are a documented fact we're
more compelled fascia. Allah says Shavon he threatens you with poverty if I become a person who
gives and I give a lot or I give a little then I am not going to have
		
00:11:41 --> 00:12:10
			an Allah Azza just says, Oh Allah Who Yeah, I mean, who have Allah, Allah who has given it Allah
says and Allah promises you forgiveness from himself, and Fidel and bounty and Allah azza wa jal is
why say Allah, because expansive, he's vast, Allah has the resources and Allah azza wa jal is all
knowing, and Allah azza wa jal, he promises that whatever we give Allah is going to replace Allah
says in the absolute respect him and Yeshua I mean anybody were to do ruler, Walmart unfuck to
Michigan for where you live, oh,
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:16
			Allah as we just as whatever you give, whatever you give, he is going to replace
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:23
			and just in case you need a reminder, he says, well who are hadal Rasul? Allah is the best to
provide.
		
00:12:25 --> 00:13:03
			I mean, that promise that he's making it is backed by Allah azza wa jal, the King of kings, the one
whose resources do not diminish. And in fact if, as the hadith of Abu Dhabi says, Allah azza wa jal
says, Oh children are welcome. We're in second Virginia calm calm I'd also Aden wa hidden for so
long if I'll tell you to cooler in Santa Monica daddy coming man in the in la cama Yonkers when
either asked Allah, Allah Allah says, Oh mankind if the first of you and the last of you and the
Jinn of you and the human of you all were to get on a single plane and each one of us were to ask
Allah azza wa jal, the asking of our wildest imaginations and Allah were to give every single one of
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:36
			us everything that we could ever hope for. That would not take away from what is with Allah azza wa
jal, just like a needle doesn't take away from the ocean when it's dipped into it. Well, what I
failed on was when Allah azza wa jal is the most generous of those who give, and then Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he also swears and the prophets of Allah they said them doesn't need to
swear, because he has a surgical must do because of the liveness route says, But Rasulullah
sallallahu Sallam he swears by three things and of the things that he swears by is he says Monica
sadhaka to me, man, he says that wealth is not diminished charity.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:14:07
			And in fact, we know of people who when they would feel that their wealth decreased. When they would
feel like money is slow or money is tight, they would cure that by going to give in charity. And
it's doesn't make sense, right? It's the complete opposite instinct, but they recognize that
whatever you give that Allah azza wa jal is going to replace and the example of this are too many to
mention as well. The province little light is centered on us to seek refuge in Allah azza wa jal
from Al Kahf. And the focus
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:46
			and so when you are removing people from poverty, when you are assisting by giving people charity,
you are removing from them something that is so detrimental to their faith, that a sort of loss of
Allah they send them used to seek refuge from it in the morning and in the evening. You say Allah
Khomeini or Hulu because a minute ago free will fuck where all the big I mean other been filled
cupboard, oh Allah I seek refuge in You from disbelief and from poverty. And I seek refuge in You
from the punishment of the grave in the morning in the evening. Rasulullah Baba send me used to seek
refuge and Allah from the harm of disbelief and the harm of poverty. Some of the arguments that
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:59
			people use against giving in charity is they're very, very, very worried about whether when I give
in charity, is this person going to really, really be benefiting from the charity and I need to make
sure 100% That
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:11
			This person is going to benefit from this. The province of a lighter sentence tells us the story of
a man who simply said, this morning, I'm going to give him charity. And so he wanted he gave him
charity.
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			At night, he gave him charity. And it turned out that he gave in charity to a thief.
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:23
			And so the next morning the town that people in the town started talking and they said, charity was
given last night to a thief.
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			And the man said, Oh Allah, you gave, I gave charity to a thief, Allahu Melaka
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:30
			hamdulillah
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:46
			I'm still going to give him charity tonight. He wasn't dissuaded. And so that night, he went, and he
gave charity, and he ended up giving charity to a prostitute. And so the next morning, the people in
the town are talking and they're saying, charity was given last night to a prostitute.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:51
			And the man said, Oh Allah to a prostitutes Allahu Melaka.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:16:00
			I'm still gonna give in charity tonight, anyway, and he gave me charity again. And this time, he
gave charity to a person who was rich.
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:07
			And so the next morning, people in the town are talking and they're saying charity was given last
night to a rich person.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:11
			And the man said to a rich person, Allahu Malecon hunt.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:13
			It's all good.
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:57
			And then a call, they heard the voice of a caller calling. And it said, your charity was accepted.
As for the thief, maybe the charity that you gave, will stop them from from, from stealing. As for
the prostitute, maybe the charity that you gave is going to prevent her from needing to sell her
body and maybe the rich person, it will inspire him to give him charity as well. And so we ask Allah
azza wa jal to make us of those who are always charitable. And we ask Allah azza wa jal to place
wealth in the hands of the generous amongst us and never the stingy once and we ask Allah azza wa
jal to guide us and make us guiding of others. Hakuna Massey, mentor Mustafa, Allah they were
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:58
			looking for stuff you don't know for right?
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:41
			hamdulillah so salatu salam ala Rasulillah Allah, Allah besetting sin cathedra. When you give Zakah
when you give charity recognize that you're doing so fulfilling the Command of Allah azza wa jal,
you're thanking Allah for his blessings upon you. You're purifying your wealth, you're purifying
your body. And when you give in charity, realize, be cognizant of that this charity could be the
cause of feeding a poor person, this cat charity that you give could be the cause of caring for an
orphan or securing the dwelling for someone who's evicted or or bringing happiness to a mother or
bringing happiness to a child and the prophets of Allah de settler when he was asked about what is
		
00:17:41 --> 00:18:20
			the most beloved Acton to Allah, He says sudo to three who Allah muslim I'll talk to you and who day
in and out oh, oh tuna fish and who caught button of total Dan who run the Prophet sallallahu sallam
said the most beloved actions to Allah is happiness that you bring to a believer that you repel some
harm from them or that you, you repel hunger from them or that you, you you bring happiness to them.
And so these are not things that are insignificant. And don't belittle, commit to being someone who
is a giver of charity, whether it's $1, or whether it's a quarter or whether it's half of $1 or
100,000. Because Allah has a UDP socket, Allah azza wa jal accepts charity, and Allah azza wa jal
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:27
			increases charity, the more you give, the more you receive. And this is not something that we need
Islam,
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:45
			or Islam specifically talks about but people who are simply looking for happiness, they find that
the more they give, the more they they feel lighter, they feel happier, they feel that they're able
to contribute. And one of the greatest gifts of giving sadaqa and I conclude with this is in our
society where we are,
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:59
			we are conditioned, to always want more, more, more, more, more, I need to buy this and I need to
buy this and I need to buy this and I need to live this particular lifestyle. And 6 billion people
on this earth live on less than $13,000 a year.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:13
			And so Allah azza wa jal has preferred many of us over many of his creation and many of humanity,
but we have this many times artificial need of more and more and more and more and when you are
giving in charity, what you are saying,
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:20
			and it is a very powerful statement. Whenever you give. I have enough.
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:55
			That's what you are saying. You are saying I have enough. And that's where happiness lies. We ask
Allah azza wa jal to allow us to hear the speech and to follow the best of it. Allahu Manana. So
