00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			So this life that we are living in,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			did Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentioned it in
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			the Quran? And if the answer is yes,
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			in which
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			context? The first one I'm gonna share with
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			you,
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			Allah said,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			Now, UHman is giving a parable here, and
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			there's a lot of parables in the Quran,
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			especially when it comes to Jumia.
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			Now the example of this worldly life, this
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			life we're living in you and me, is
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			like a rain
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			which was sent down from the sky.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			Then the plants of the earth absorbed,
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			from which what's gonna happen,
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			plants comes in, men and the livestock
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:14
			eat.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			Now
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:19
			when the earth has taken its beauty adornment
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:21
			and beautified
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			and people thought,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			suppose that they have complete control,
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			capability over
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			it, there comes to it our command
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			by the night or the day,
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			and we made it or make
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			it as a harvest.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:37
			Nothing
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			as if it had not flourished yesterday.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			Thus, Allah is saying, we explain in detail
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:45
			the science
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			for the people who give thought, people who
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			reflect, people who see.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			What is Allah telling us? The reality of
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			this world.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			Rain comes in, we are born,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			and then we grow up.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			The rain brings fruits,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			brings vegetation, plants,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:04
			people
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08
			and animals, livestock eats from it. We go
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			in this life, we become
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			adults. We become successful. We have children. We
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			have family. We have everything we want, and
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			we think we have it all. And we
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			are under control. Everything is our under our
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			control. Then Allah
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			says when people are happy with
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			it and they think they are on, it
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			is under their control.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			The
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			commandment of Allah or the commands of Allah
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			came a day or a night, meaning suddenly,
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:40
			and it became nothing ashes, and you see
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:43
			this all the time in our daily life.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			Somebody was very successful
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			and suddenly he or she gets sick,
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			and then they cannot do it anymore. They
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			were very rich, investments,
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			all this, and suddenly
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			stock market crash and they lose everything.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00
			May Allah protect everybody and especially the children,
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:03
			their beautiful family and the children and their
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:03
			spouse.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			Something happened, a car accident, and they lose
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			it. But the most important thing, what Allah
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			is here telling you and me, is that
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:14
			at one point, we will leave it all
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			as if it was never there.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			As if it was
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			not very beautiful
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			yesterday.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			I
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			and you need to live
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			with the following.
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			We are here,
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			but we are not here forever.
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			We are here,
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:32
			it's beautiful,
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:35
			enjoy, but we are not here only
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:36
			to enjoy.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			So there is way more to talk about
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			in Duniya, and Allah
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			knows we spend most of our time, all
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			our time in Duniya.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:47
			So tomorrow, inshallah, I'll take you to another
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:50
			journey, another question about duniya in the Quran.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:53
			What else Allah said about the duniya in
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			the Quran? We'll see you tomorrow, insha'Allah.
