The conversation is difficult to follow and appears disjointed. It appears that the speakers are discussing collections made at a praying facility and that there is a culture of "orned and generous" that hasn't been stirred. The conversation also touches on the topic of hunger and the importance of remembering to be grateful to Allah.

00:00:00 --> 00:00:11
			Prophet Muhammad wa sallam was known to be charitable, generous, whatever he had he gave it but in
Ramadan he was known to be even more generous.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			He was known to be even more generous.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:24
			Where is our generosity? There is no motivation.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			The collections made at the masjid.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			Not much different from
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			collections outside of Ramadan
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			collections for the masjid for the place that we are praying.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			Why generosity hasn't been stirred.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:01:00
			Hunger hasn't been felt. So it's just the routine Okay, we have some money. When I was a Christian
as to go to the church we had a my parents used to give us some coins you give put this in the
plate, we're doing the same thing. Just the ritual.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:10
			Let us renew our intentions today for the next week
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			to the end of Ramadan
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:21
			to turn this fast around and make it truly a fast for a loss of what Allah
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:34
			let us experience the fast. The real fast for a lot of sick one in which hunger pangs hit us.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:44
			hunger pangs which we rarely experience hit us every day. And remind us
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			to be grateful to Allah subhanho wa Taala for what he has given us
		
00:01:53 --> 00:02:00
			and to be concerned about the rest of humanity who don't have what has been given to us
