went.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:58
			It's not a race. It is not a race. Right? She did it. May Allah reward her maybe she had the
capability. Maybe she that's what she's good at. I am not, I don't have the time. I have things
more. I can do things as good as she does. But in other forms. I don't have to race and have Kumu
Taka and what's the other thing we boost about and sub they call it right? My father was my mother
was my whoever was true or false. And we compete. We compete. Yanni. It's a race, it's exactly a
race. So how many helpers I have in the house? How many cars I have? How many jewelry, furniture?
furniture? How many people come to your house and tells you beautiful Where did you buy it from
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:04
			somebody, some people even more, I call it direct and how much you paid for it.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:11
			And remember Shafi is something in that meaning in his teaching used to say if someone asked you
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			this, you will say why do you want to know?
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:32
			Why do you want to know I should ask myself this question. Before I ask, really? Why do I want to
know what does it what is going to make me a better Muslim? Is it going to make me closer to Allah
if I know she bought this couch for whatever runs?
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:36
			The only time you really really have to ask is one
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:48
			when I I need to buy and I really like it and I need to have an idea. So when I go and buy I will
not pay too much. And there is a way of asking Please forgive me Can I ask?
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:59
			And that's that tells me the person in front of me is really not interested. And then this is how
they ask. Please forgive me. I have to ask and if you don't want to answer it's I absolutely
understand
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:27
			Then Then you know this person is reading once it for a reason not just to learn. So I'll have a
takaful and there is a principle right this one and this is a say, ma t tamina Dunia forebody Omar
sorry Fang Caminha for awaba whatever you were given of dunya whatever you are given of dunya the
pleased with
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			and whatever you were not given of dunya be pleased with
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:45
			meaning whatever Allah gives me 100 Allah, and I mean it. And whatever Allah didn't give me 100
Allah and I mean it.
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49
			And there is one, one say
		
00:10:50 --> 00:11:13
			something in that meaning Allah gave each one of us, every creation of him, something like 24 hours
of the day, or 24 carats, like the gold player. The only difference between you and me are between
you and you and you and me and between us is how he divided the 24
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:20
			meaning some woman Allah gave her 20 carats worth of children
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:45
			and four carats of money. At the end she has 24 some when Allah gave her eight of children, eight of
wealth, eight of education at the end 24 someone Allah give her 24 carats of friable, she is very
happy with what she has, at the end of the day. She has 24
		
00:11:46 --> 00:12:03
			if I look at everything around me in this way, I am not going to be jealous of you. And you're not
going to be jealous of me because we all have 24 why Allah gave you eight or seven and gave me five
or 10 or 24. Why
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:08
			that is his hikma. That's his wisdom.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:36
			But the principle we all follow that you can be for long enough sannyasa Allah will not give me
anything that I cannot handle. Handle in the meaning that that what is good for me. And that's what
should you be and put three lines or five or 10 should be good for me. should be good for me because
sometimes Allah give us but I don't think it's good for me. I look at
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:41
			the other What did Allah describe dunya in Surah
		
00:12:42 --> 00:13:22
			Surah tahajjud one of the most powerful source very powerful temaki surah Allah says the following
alemu and Nirmal hyah to dunya. Lahore wala and Xena to water farhaan water Catherine freedom Wiley
100 no dunya Yeah, Allah in no worldly dunya is the following that description of dunya what is
dunya? Allah is the one who created dunya right? Like you. For example, you bake a cake for you and
someone else telling you what is this cake? Who knows about the cake?
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:52
			The one who makes it, she tells you this cake is this and this and this and that's what I did and
put it in the oven for 40 minutes get out and do Allah says Allah? No. In Malhotra dunya wordly
dunya is the following. And he described it. La hoon. Well, actually, this is La Jolla. It's a joy
and it's a play Allah who is not only a joy, la who is when I am
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:56
			doing something for fun, just to kill the time
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			in Arabic called long
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:13
			time so dunya by definition of Allah, the creator of the dunya says dunya is Allahu Allah it's a
play. That's too And now what is it else? Now when I was Xena beauty?
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:20
			Xena is a beauty to you. What a cat what a fatherhood boosting between people.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:33
			What a castle the same word what a castle. Race getting more. More to Catherine what Phil amali
Well, our lodge in money and children.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36

00:14:38 --> 00:14:43
			tuffa Hello, what a castle. I want more so I sit and boost about it.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:15:00
			Not necessarily use it to get to genuine Meaning what? Always. This is something I always joke with
my patients. When I first time I see and she's pregnant and I say how many children you have. And
she says I have three and I say so. I'm taking the history and she says the three children.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
