			macabre sakalava nauseum,
		

			my dear respected elders and brothers.
		

			In my last talk, I had spoken on the ayah which I have recited.
		

			I had said that the meaning of this ayah is
		

			that accumulation and competition and rivalry for more and more, has made people neglectful of Allah
subhanho wa Taala as command has made them neglectful of Allah subhanho wa Taala mission through
which he had sent human being in this world, and people will come to realize the folly when they
come into the cover, that was the basis of the talk and from there we spoke about greed. And we said
greed is such a thing that means total in grosman, with material things, it is not necessarily mean
in grosman with wealth, it can mean with anything material, I gave the example of engrossment was
entertainment. And I gave an example of a book that was written, which gave a study of how much
		

			percentage of people's disposable income today spend on entertainment. And I said by and large greed
means in grosman, and attachment with wealth. We also said that greed is such a disease, such a
spiritual disease that is only not only confined and only bear in itself, but it leads to evil in
other matters, quoted the Hadith in Abu Dawood.
		

			Islam said, that greed, bay people to become miserly they became miserly. It paid them to do other
evil deeds, other evil deeds. And I said, one of the harms of greed is that there is no end point of
greed. There is no end point of greed, the more the more the needs of greed are fulfilled. The more
are its demands, the more is demands. Luke and Adam What
		

			if a human being has got two values of gold, he won't say personally I got two values of goals.
		

			He said help me moseyed bring more bring more
		

			joy for me.
		

			It is only the sin of the cover that will satiate the greed of humankind. Again, I'd make a pass and
I would go for it to Hanawon. baharu sonica una cara passiveness, yada, yada ha patoka almasi

of greed one which is sometimes good. And sometimes that it is negative, positive and negative.

			there are two things that people never ever get saturated with two things people never get saturated
with one is positive one is negative, the positive is element knowledge, just coelom catches calaca
whoever is now involved in element knowledge, no matter how much he gets, he is never ever
satisfied. You say I want to learn more, I want to learn more. There is one who has made mentioned
that a person some says I had a some seasoned Arabic saying or to
		

			acquire knowledge from the cradle to the grave. So there is a positive greed that you always want to
increase your knowledge. And today unfortunately, brothers we have to say that people don't have the
thirst for knowledge. It is so so sad to see this that you know there is no enthusiasm to increase
your knowledge and the other one is to increase your wealth. So let me say Aslam spoke about the
positive and the negative. After understanding this and giving a broad understanding of the harms of
greed. One might say that you know we are born with this and that Allah had said that you know even
if you have two values you are wonderful. So we are born and we are going to be greedy. But no that
		

			is not the way we are supposed to think our Allah May Allah Allah for the cover was no Imam has
Allah Allah Allah in his room has made mention of solutions.
		

			To greed. How do you resolve and how do you restrain your greed? It's a natural thing but Allah
Allah says in the Quran xuyen alumnus fukuzawa milanesa. You will Kareena will. karatedo cantata,
Allah has adorned certain things of this world for humankind, you know what your desires, you know
Katara, jewelry and woman these are things that are naturally naturally appealing and attractive to
human being. But now the thing is doesn't mean that it is because it is attractive, you might just
go down that route, we have to control we have to restrain ourselves within a particular Framework
of Reference which is permissible, which is positive and not beyond that, which makes it negative.
		

			Now what is
		

			it? How do you deal with greed? How do you resolve and how do you try and restrain your house in
Tama, I made mention of it last week this word Tama is an amazing thing. Tomorrow you will look at
the Arabic word meme.
		

			And all three of these Arabic letters has got a circle in the middle which indicates that it can
never ever get saturated. It is Tom Tom Neiman is all of them got a circle in the middle that can
never be saturated. Now how do we some way even because I literally said first thing cannot
contentment. contentment is an amazing quality and a favor of Almighty Allah bless it are those who
have been granted contentment can afla Harmon Assalamu ruzicka cocka cocka cocka cocka cocka. Now
lamotta who come upon successful is he wears Islam and Allah has given him sustenance that is enough
for his needs. And he is contented with what Allah has given him. Let me give you a definition of
		

			contentment.
		

			contentment means a state of satisfaction which alive what Allah has granted you which does not
preclude you striving to better your condition,
		

			a state of satisfaction which what Allah has granted you which does not take away from the fact that
perhaps you want to strive to better your situation.
		

			There is nothing wrong in striving to better your situation. But at the same time, you also
satisfied with Allah Allah has given you a state of satisfaction when Allah subhanho wa Taala has
granted you with output does not preclude the situation of trying to better your situation. But this
is an amazing thing wherever he is contented with his Lord. He is
		

			said contentment is a treasure that will never ever get finished.

			what it is to cancer cells limited laser, Xena,
		

			Xena, and wealth and prosperity is not the amount of wealth that you got on a Kindle Gina.
		

			But wealth and prosperity is to do with the heart. wealth and prosperity has got to do more with a
heart. That is what has got to do with the amount of wealth that you've got. So the first thing My
dear respected brothers, I think it's extremely important that we have contentment. And you know, if
you look at it, how much is enough? How much is enough? If you look at this, ask yourself this
question How much is enough? And then you will come to realize that how contentment it is something
that doesn't mean you must not strive to better yourself. I think what you can do many positive
things I made mention of it in the last video. But at the same time, there comes a time that you say
		

			that listen, the important things my wealth must not divert me from remembering Allah must not
divert me for my relationships. So how much is enough? There's one small incident to show you about
this. You know, they say a rich woman one day, out of boredom or whatever she went to go and shop
not so she went to steal something from the supermarket. So she stole a cane of vegetables a stem
cell again of mushrooms. So she stole the can of mushrooms, because she didn't have enough money to
go back home to go and fetch the money. So she shoplifted as mushrooms. So when they brought her to
court, so that the judge asked, Why did you do this? I didn't do it because I wanted to do it. I was
		

			bored. I was lazy to confess money so it is going to keep I put it in mind. So just said why 50
Steph, I can't allow it to go unpunished. I have to give you some punishment. So how many mushrooms
they were in the king? Is it seven mushrooms is seven mushrooms. You go seven days in jail. So
husband Walker Rokita he was very, very reserved. So he said, my honor, I want to say something. So
he said what do you want to say? He said she also stole a cane of peace.
		

			So watch Dixie J.
		

			So how much is enough? The first aspect with regard to saving yourself from greed is contentment.
The second thing that is which is such an important thing is puzzle her chin. If you want to save
yourself from greed, learn to moderate your expenses. aligned the Holy Quran has spoken about
wastage and extravagance, towards Allah tala using the Holy Quran. One is the thief and one is is
rough in the arena.
		

			And what is the deal? That means to spend on things which are not necessary, we'll call fuzu. Got no
benefit in this world no benefit in the after their job or bear Mahal meme Marco Husqvarna was calm
cut a deal. And about the bureaucracy is the one who is extravagant, who spends in wealth on things
that are no benefit. He is the brother of God, we have one charity
		

			that is wrong. The other one is zero refugees lickin zero, it says zide applique, Saskia was coming
		

			from a
		

			cow pure luck and his napco. So you see the two words. One is to spend more on things that are
necessary. And one is to spend on things which have got no benefit. Many times people say money is
my wealth. Let me spin how I want to Why are you telling me what I must spend on what I must not
spend on? No brothers? Our spending? Remember this very carefully. Our spending is not only
determined by the amount of wealth you got, it is also determined by moral considerations. How can
you spend sometimes 2 million on a wedding or three or four or 5 million on a wedding when you know
people in your neighborhood or in your country are dying of hunger? So while there are certain times
		

			that we spend out of happiness, and there is permissibility, but at the same time, there has to be a
framework that you don't go into the it doesn't go into. It doesn't go into things which are not in
our question, as on the day of chairman
		

			has told us to have the five questions allow us to pose to human being on the day of gamut without
which he would not be able to even move his foot. How did you earn and how did you spend your money?
How did you earn and how did you spend your money? Allah would ask us two questions. We all like
good things and within a particular limit is nothing one day someone Saba said Yasser Allah. I love
good clothes. He's loving good clothes, part of extravagance and part of pride. So let me sell some
said no, in Allah Jamil Jamal. Allah loves beauty. Allah is beautiful and loves beauty so if you
wear good clothes because Allah is beautiful, you want to be beautiful. Nothing wrong but the moment
		

			you start wearing clothes to show off
		

			there's a fine line. Why are you wearing good clothes because up vietminh if you want to be in the
feasts, you want to be good nothing wrong. But if you start wearing clothes people will start
looking at me and commenting how what a beautiful clothes and we saw some said he who wear clothes
of pride in this world and now we'll make him wear clothes of disgrace in the after. And what if
what a fine line one is to wear good clothes and clean clothes because Allah is beautiful. And one
is to edit because I people might say Wow, what a beautiful pair of clothes with very fine line. And
that is why it's so important for us to get the right balance. Many times people also say Mira man,
		

			let me do whatever I want with it. It is only to do with my my weakness metamerism It is my
situation.
		

			So much Corsica fighter so much Garissa. keyaki adminer kipnuk esta malkia pesa what what harm does
it cost to the community if I'm extravagant Santa Monica it's a lot of money. I was reading his his
mas mon on this. No, this morning and what the beautiful thing he wrote. He says that once people
become extravagant and that becomes that criteria because of which everyone strive towards. Now you
have become extravagant. So the entire community was at a level one person becomes extravagant.
Everyone wants to become that particular. Jana, Jana, Jana, her as my akakura Karnataka
		

			see the harms of you know,
		

			the harms of extravagance. But within within limits, Allah says poo washable etendering but then,
you know, that fine line and of course I know I know myself to be very difficult to set the
definition. What is this rough? What is the
		

			Fear what is acceptable what is not acceptable for another day, maybe a cream sauce from said ask
your heart It is a biggest move to the biggest move to your heart in your conscience. So the second
thing to prevent greed is stay away from extravagance. The third thing is, and then human because
Allah has made mention of what a beautiful Hadith my Allah Monica says, He who is moderate in his
spending, poverty will never overtake him. He was moderately spending, poverty will not overtake
him. The third thing with regard to greed is the way to spend ourselves save ourselves don't have
too much
		

			ambitions and false hopes about the future. Now, this is also again, this is so important Islam is
balanced. Now everyone likes to plan for the future. There's nothing wrong with it. Now we saw some
also towards the end of his life, gave his wives after the towards after the ayat of in 2016, the
21st and 27 second super I was leaving, he gave him a budget for the year. Nothing wrong with
planning. But now when it becomes so obsessed, so obsessed, what is going to happen to my children
50 years from now
		

			and I will look after them to copy you know when you become so obsessed with this awesome said the
first sign of corruption in the in the body politic of the oma is obsession with events of the
unforeseen future.

making preparations for 100 years he doesn't know whether he's going to look at the blinking of his
eye let's the next time. So what I'm saying is and also one day gave this beautiful example maybe
someone came with a sahaabah he put one item in front of him and he put another item in the distance
cybercity Ursula What is the meaning of this? The person said you see this is human beings death in
that is his hopes. This is his death that is his hopes. This is a situation but at the same time let
me give you another Hadith that we saw some said either uttered

the balance at the same time plan or while planning don't become can make events of the unforeseen
future and obsession.
		

			Mata Ki oh god this is gonna happen quality of life what is gonna happen to our children make your
natural planning don't become obsessed with regard to it. The fourth thing and I will conclude with
this the visa Aslam said and another essays in the Holy Quran, you want to save yourself from greed.
Don't look at envy with what Allah has given someone else.
		

			Don't look at jealousy and envy was what Allah has given someone else. What are the Madonna in a
karela mama Dada v as watch a man whom zarafa hierarchy dunia Lena Tina woofie don't cast your gaze
and strain your gaze with envy to what Allah has given someone else. Enough Keno fee you don't know

said one day someone called him home. He said when he went to the home, he said such a palatial
		

			home. Then he saw outside two, three Mercedes are sitting there, and he went in there. And he said
when he went in there and listen to the problems of those people, they were crying. You know, tears
are flat. We've got this problem. We've got that problem. And he said, but when you look at you from
the outside, it looks like everyone will want to hear what you have. But look at your situation you
are crying because of your problems. Don't look at envy was what Allah has given someone else. four
ways to protect yourself from greed, one contentment. Second thing is stay away from extravagant,
extravagant and fool Hershey spending and wasting your wealth. Third, avoid obsession with events of
		

			the unforeseen future. Fourth, don't look at with envy and what Allah subhanaw taala has done to
someone. May Allah subhanho wa Taala keep us away from all types of negative attributes. May Allah
Allah fulfill and put in our hearts aspects which makes our life better, makes our heart better. And
Allah subhanho wa Taala always keep us under his protection while through the awana
