			Me also Luna Salama de la hoomin fatherly circolo hola Zim respected viewers and listeners. We begin
by praising Almighty Allah that Allah has granted us the most beautiful Deen which is comprehensive
of all aspects of life, including our our flock and our conduct. We censor rotations upon our
beloved Nivea creme de la Juana, he was selam, who amongst his objectives, as he stated, he said in
Mr. Worf, tolyatti, Mama, Karima o'clock, I have been sent by a law to complete and perfect code of
conduct. This is our fourth lesson and fourth program on jealousy as part of the series purification
of the heart. And there is no doubt whatsoever that jealousy is one of the greatest spiritual
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:37
			calamities and diseases of the heart. We have looked at some of the harms, some of the harms include
one of the greatest that you are objecting to Allah Allah that Allah made a mistake an error in the
distribution of favors to people height of selfishness, height of foolishness. We quoted a hadith
whenever Kareem saw Selim has made mentioned the jealousy devours your good deed the way fire
devours.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:02:26
			Try hood and maybe occur himself slim it said, that he man in jealousy cannot be in the heart of the
believer. Then we looked at one of the ways that we have to stay away from jealousy is to starve and
to keep away from the reasons that give rise in our last program we spoke about to one has anger and
malice, that when you are angry and hateful towards someone, it gives rise to jealousy. The other
one is pride and arrogance, that when you reach a particular status, then you start feeling jealous,
if anyone competes with you with that status that you have. Now, continuing as we go on in today's
program, we looked at one of the reasons also is known as the hub, where people are competing for
		
00:02:26 --> 00:03:15
			the same objective, this could be termed as professional jealousy. So two co workers, they trying to
gain the same promotion, people who are trying trying to gain the attraction of people, celebrities
or whatever it is. So, this is also one of the reasons that we have to stay away. You know, the
reasons that give rise to jealousy. And perhaps one of the most unfortunate reasons with regard to
jealousy is just the nature of a human kind just that he gives himself that he can see the good of
other people he grieves with regard to the good Allah has given to someone else it just something
that is a spiritual disease that you have to make an effort to get away from and the way the Urdu
		
00:03:15 --> 00:04:07
			poet it said arJ look up the duck said okay now he do sir. Okay, souk said okay. Today people are
not, you know, not in pain, with regard to their own problems and their own difficulties, but they
are in pain, because of the good Allah has granted someone else, how unfortunate. Anyway, these are
some of the reasons. Now, coming to the cure, one of our great scholars, has given a remarkable
example with regard to the stages of jealousy, and he has said that there are three stages and he
has beautifully put it in there or two language and I will translate it, he said one is a person who
is mazor one is mature and one is Missouri. Let me explain this. One is where you are prompted
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:54
			towards jealousy, jealousy, jealousy comes in voluntarily. All of a sudden, you just feel an aspect
and a feeling of jealousy towards a person, you know, and it just sort of prompted you, all of a
sudden comes up. You have a feeling with regard to feel jealousy with regard to a person because of
some favor, Allah has granted him and you actively oppose off let's start by mother, were you in
voluntarily something comes up and then you don't pursue it. And you just leave it like that, as it
comes in you let it go. Then you are excused because things that comes to you involuntarily, and you
have no control over things that come to you involuntarily there is no reward. There is no good and
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			there is no.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			Now sometimes a prompting of jealousy comes towards you.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:09
			Towards the towards from you towards another person, then you actively you oppose it, you go and do
good to that person
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:20
			upon whom the promptings of jealousy has come in your heart towards and you actively go against the
prompting, there you are mature, you are rewarded.
		
00:05:21 --> 00:06:06
			And one is the jealousy comes into your heart towards another person with regard to a favor and is
granted when you pursue the jealousy, you become hateful about him, you backbite about him, you
start slandering him, etc, there you are Missouri, you will be held liable and you will get a Guna
and ascend. So one is in voluntarily, you don't pursue it, you don't do anything. There, You are
excused, one, you oppose it, there you are rewarded. And the third thing is to actively pursue it.
There you are liable for a sin from Almighty Allah subhanaw taala. With regard to the pure that when
am I have made mentioned staff jealousy of the negative thoughts that give rise for it for it to
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:47
			thrive? So what you do is you starve those particular reasons that give rise to jealousy. hypnagogia
Alhamdulillah, one of our great scholars in our history has written an amazing thing. With regard to
the cure of jealousy. He says, when you are jealous with regard to a person, or you are prompted
with jealousy towards a person, then you make an extra effort to be good to him. You're gonna make
him Sam, you go and greet him, you give him gifts, you make dua for him. And to the extent that you
come to that stage, where you come when we aquariums are allowed and Solomon said, a perfect
believer is he who loves for his brother what he loves for himself. You start loving for him, what
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:56
