00:00:00 --> 00:00:01 
			What can you do with just $1?
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05 
			You can buy a candy bar, a pack
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07 
			of gum, or a can of soda.
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10 
			These things may satisfy your desires for a
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11 
			few minutes
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14 
			and then become forgotten at the bottom of
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16 
			a trash can or your purse. How would
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19 
			you see that dollar if it buys the
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22 
			next level of jenna for you?
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25 
			What about if it means investment
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27 
			in your health and safety?
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30 
			What if it was a seed of tzedakah
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32 
			that got multiplied
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34 
			by 100 of times.
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37 
			That is what a dollar spent on what
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38 
			pleases Allah
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40 
			looks like.
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42 
			Allah says,
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46 
			the example of those who spend their wealth
00:00:46 --> 00:00:47 
			in the way of Allah
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50 
			is like a seed of grain,
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52 
			which grows 7 spikes.
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55 
			In each spike is a 100 grains.
00:00:56 --> 00:00:59 
			And Allah multiplies his reward for whom he
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00 
			wills.
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02 
			And Allah is all encompassing
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04 
			and knowing.
