			We are continuing with our series on vivado Rahman. Today is the seventh program in the series and
we are dealing with the six quality. The six quality of those people whom Allah tala refers to as a
bad man, my special bondsman, my special servants, my special slaves, and indeed to be counted as a
slave of Almighty Allah is indeed an honor and therefore, we have to strive to inculcate a inculcate
these qualities which Allah tala has defined in Surah to farrakhan in our life. And in this quality,
the sixth quality Allah tala says that abajo Ramana those were Ludhiana either unfolded when they
spend the wealth let me know three four What are
		
00:01:31 --> 00:02:21
			they spending is neither in extravagance. Neither is it miserly cook anabaena Delica comma the
spending is between these two extremes. So hon Allah, what a great quality and what a great aspect
of the deen of Almighty Allah subhanho wa Taala there are two things worth your consideration. In
this quality, the sixth quality that I would like to highlight in for us to reflect Firstly,
obviously is the quality itself, but also the sense of moderation and balance in every aspect of our
dean. Look at this. When you spend you are not miserly, you are not extravagant and this particular
sense of moderation runs through our entire Deen and it is supposed to be the Hallmark and the
		
00:02:21 --> 00:03:05
			characteristic of a believer to have moderation in every aspect of life. And when we talk about
moderation I'm not talking about the moderation is is demanded sometimes by liberal politicians.
Salman Rushdie once wrote in The Washington Post, that it is now time for every reality including
sacred reality to be adapted to alternate realities. We're not talking about moderation we're
talking about moderation which Allah Allah says in the Quran, karateka jalna como Mata wasa? We have
made you adjust the balance Huma and Omar that does not fall short of the limit that does not go
beyond the limit which adopts balance and moderation in every one of its teachings and every one of
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:47
			its aspects. And this is what Nivea cream southcom said hydro morio said to her, the best of all
affairs is that in which you adopt a moderate path, not falling short of the limit, not going beyond
the limit. Let us look at what Islam has taught us in every aspect, in belief in Allah subhanho wa
Taala you have people in one extreme, they have denied Almighty Allah subhanho wa Taala How do you
deny Allah subhanho wa Taala It is beyond imagination, who has given this tongue the flexibility to
form words, the brain and the intellect to be able to understand these words, but yet there are
people who deny Allah subhanho wa Taala so in one extreme you have those who deny Allah subhanho wa
		
00:03:47 --> 00:04:27
			Taala. On the other extreme, you have those who have many idols more than one Allah subhana wa tada
in between these two extremes. He is the way of Islam. We have one Allah we believe in the existence
of Almighty Allah but one Allah who is all powerful, all great, all majesty, and he is one that we
rely upon him that way we rely upon no one else. We fear him as we are. And as we've not fear anyone
else. This is the balance with regard to our belief in Allah subhanho wa Taala look at the belief in
our in prophets. In the Gambia Naima salat wa salam look at the history of religion. It is in many
ways,
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:59
			example of extremism and one extreme, make him Allah subhanho wa Taala make him the son of Almighty
Allah subhanho wa Taala. On the other extreme, go to this extended to dishonor him, you do not show
him respect. And as the way Allah says in a Quran, we have been a bit ad hoc. They even murdered and
killed the prophets without any justification. And in between these two extremes is the way of Islam
that we have, on one hand, been very, very careful not to attribute divinity to our
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:09
			Beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Livia Kareem sauceless one day so a person making dua,
Masha Allah, Masha Mohammed but Allah wishes but Muhammad wishes he said How
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:56
			are you equating me with Allah? No I'm not Allah don't say my shell, Masha Allah Muhammad say Masha
Allah, Masha Allah m, we made our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the object of our
allegiance, the object of our love, the object of our loyalty, but we have never ever made him the
object of worship. On the other hand, this woman had shown that respect, in that honor to his
prophet that no other woman has ever shown such as expect, what what great incidents, we don't have
the time to go into it, but people who are in the know would know with regard to what great respect
this homebuyer chose, our beloved prophet SAW Selim, look at the beautiful balance between the two
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:25
			extremes. We did not attribute any divinity to our professor value system. But yet we showed him
that respect and honor that no one no other method showed such respect and honor. With regard to
this material world people have gone into two extremes. What are the two extremes on one hand, they
made this material world the be all in the end, and all of all the desires, all the ambitions and
about which our beloved Nivea cream sauce used to make dua de la mulata jelenia Gora homina
		
00:06:26 --> 00:07:14
			homina Bettina, Ola don't make this material was the be all and end all of our existence, the reason
why we gain knowledge and do not make it the end of all our ambitions, we do not make this material
world our be all in the end all and the culmination of our desires and our objectives. And yet at
the same time, we did not stay away from the legitimate pleasures of this material world. And let
Allah warned us yeah, you will never you will limit to harinama halala. Here you will lead in
Amanullah to remove it but opnfv do not make haram what Allah has made Helen lead to hurry motiva to
not make haram the legitimate pleasures of this world. In every aspect, there is moderation and
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:52
			balance even in character, what we have been told is to put the natural faculties in a state of
equilibrium, that is good character. Again no time to explain, but that is good character is
explained by our allama of Sufism. And so it is with this sixth quality of the abajo Rama that when
they spend they spending is in a moderation between miserliness and between extravagant and
wastefulness May Allah subhanho wa Taala give us that required balance, which is part of the Forte
and the quality of the Bible. Rahman was the one and
