00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			I want to go fly over to get to
Redmond. Thank you. Thank you for
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:07
			being here from the lab. And it's
been a long program, especially if
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			you were here for the earlier
program. So that's why we're going
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			to be doing a shorter session
today. But for those who are here
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:15
			and watching, we're going to
continue from where we left off
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:19
			last month, on the chapter of
envy. So if you don't have this
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			text, it's called purification of
the heart. And this is on the
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26
			spiritual signs, symptoms,
diseases of the heart, and how to
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:31
			cure oneself of those diseases,
which we all have. So this was
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:36
			translated by Sheikh Hamza Yusuf.
So last month, we talked about the
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			definition of envy, what it is,
which is really wanting someone
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:44
			out someone to lose a blessing,
being so envious or jealous of a
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			person's blessings that you
actually want them to lose it. And
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			there, this is definitely
something that afflicts people,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:53
			they can't help, but see someone
have something that they don't
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:58
			have that they want. And instead
of just wanting to also have it,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:02
			the diseases that you want them to
actually lose it, and it's really
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			about them as opposed to you,
there's there's
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:11
			maybe it comes from a hatred or
some other emotion as well. But
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:16
			it's, that's why it's considered a
disease of heart. So we left off
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:20
			on page 31, where we were talking
about the treatments of envy. So
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			we'll pick up from there. It's a
second chapter again, if you have
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			the book with you. So another
treatment is to know with
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:30
			certainty that holding envy
against another person brings harm
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			to oneself. So when you're
envious, you actually really
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:37
			harming yourself, right? Human
nature's most primordial instinct
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:42
			is to avoid harm. It's easier for
a person to repel negative
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			feelings when he or she realizes
that these feelings hurt the soul.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:51
			For example, if a disgruntled
worker comes anxious and angry,
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:56
			because he has passed over a
promotion, his anxiety and anger
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:01
			harm his soul, mind and body, and
yield nothing for his future. In
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05
			complaining at length and becoming
obsessed with the objects of his
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:09
			envy, the person to whom the
promotion was granted, He permits
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:14
			the disease to fester in his heart
and cause him groups. These
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:18
			cascading feelings will neither
help him ascend in his profession,
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:24
			nor alter the past. It is an
entirely demoralizing exercise
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:29
			that can magnify the original
injury who felt envy, in fact, can
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:34
			actually damage one's sanity,
resentment may prevent one from
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			accomplishing significant
achievements. A person who shuns
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:43
			and even when others around him
seem to be passing him buy is
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:48
			motivated to excel unimpeded by
depression and resentment. This is
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:52
			a really important point, because
if you think about the effects of
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:56
			envy is that you're harboring all
of this resentment that Ben
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:00
			debilitates you from actually
moving towards whatever goal you
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:05
			want, right? Because you're just
festering, wallowing in self pity,
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09
			anger, why be why not be you know,
the person who's filled with these
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:14
			types of negative emotions, and up
further harming themselves, you
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:19
			know, in addition to whatever loss
they perceive in the beginning, so
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			it's really like just taking a
scope.
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26
			That's the best way you can look
at it, it's affecting you and
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:32
			unfortunately, the Muslim world is
now filled with. For example, when
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:35
			many Muslims look at Americans and
Europeans, they have all
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:40
			criticisms applying all kinds of
rhetoric. Ostensibly one hears
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:44
			moral outrage. However, the root
of much of this rhetoric is,
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:50
			they have worldly possessions, and
we do not is what often comes
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:54
			across. Similarly, when many less
fortunate Muslims was toward the
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:59
			Gulf nations that have great
stores of oil, they cannot resist
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			passing judgment about how Gulf
Arab squandered Muslim money. This
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:08
			type of dialogue stems from envy.
The issue is comparing what one
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:12
			has with what another has, and
that only fuels envy and brings
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:16
			about no positive impact. This
does not mean that one should not
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			criticize. However, criticism
should be done with the purpose of
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:23
			being constructive and not
destructive. The Communist
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:27
			Revolution was largely a
manifestation of envy. The
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:30
			writings of Karl Marx indicate
that he was filled with
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:34
			resentment. Much of his theory is
founded on observing the wealthy
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:39
			and desiring that they lose what
they have. This is not to suggest
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:42
			that when the wealthy are unjust
to the poor, and to the working
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			class, they should not be
censored. But from the point of
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:50
			view of sacred love both the
affluent and the needy, have their
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:54
			respective obligations. The
obligation of the poor is not to
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:57
			envy the rich and harbor
resentment toward them. And the
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			rich are obligated to not be
little the indigent
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:05
			Well arrogant, hoard wealth or
work to keep others. This is a
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:08
			really important point, especially
today socially, because we're
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			seeing this rise in,
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:15
			in this anti capitalist sentiment,
there's a lot of socialism and
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:20
			communism, but into schools,
starting at a very young age now
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:25
			in academia and other places
where, you know, eat the rich, the
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:30
			1%. And there's all this hostility
and anger that stems from looking
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:34
			at people who are wealthy. And not
to say that, you know, there are
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:38
			all the guards, there are people
who absolutely use their wealth
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:42
			and their power with that that's
true. But we as Muslims have to
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:46
			make sure we don't adopt a
worldview that is divorced from
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:51
			the fact that I lost power those
districts, right, if you forget
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:57
			that point, it's very easy to
follow fall into the modern, you
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:01
			know, spirit, which is to just,
you know, hate everybody who has
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:06
			more wealth and do all of them as
being somehow oppressive, right?
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:10
			Because that's a very postmodern
worldview, it's to look at the
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14
			those who have and those who have
not, if this, like dystopian
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:17
			worldview is what's being
perpetuated a lot. That's why
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:21
			you're seeing now we have class
division, we have a lot of
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:24
			division, right? across racial
lines, across gender, across
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:28
			religious lines, and now your
class. It's because those, you
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			know, who incite and like to cause
division and this is, you know, a
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:36
			demonic impulse bliss loves
nothing more than to sow discord,
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:40
			and promote anger in the hearts of
the human being. So he knows what
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			he's doing. And he doesn't this
large scale, by just, you know,
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			casting aspersions on everybody
that's different than you. So
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:49
			again, it could be a racial thing
it could do religious thing could
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:53
			be costing gender, but we have to
remember as Muslims, that was not
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:57
			our worldview, it was kinda is the
one who distributes, and he
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:01
			certain things are in our control,
and certain things are not in
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:04
			control. And that's the bottom
line. And at the end of the day,
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:09
			it's all from Allah. So you're on
the side of wealth. By the way,
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:13
			that doesn't mean that you're just
100% entitled and privileged. And
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:18
			you're absolved of hardship.
That's not true. And that's how a
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:23
			person who understands the deen or
the I mean, the world in the right
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			frame, will see it that
everybody's being tested always
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:31
			whether you're wealthy, whether
you're poor, whether you have
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:36
			power, or you're oppressed, we are
all at all times being tested
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:40
			every single human being. And
that's just a fact. Right? And
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:44
			wealth, actually, I would say is a
huge tribulation, I would I mean,
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:50
			I know people who are very
wealthy, and it's a burden that I
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:55
			would never wish for myself.
Because you really don't know who
		
00:07:55 --> 00:08:00
			is your true friend who is close
to for you, or who wants to take
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:05
			something from the right, the same
actually, with any blessing. It
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			comes with a price, you're not
sure right? Who's really
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:13
			sincerely, you know, you're close
to you, for some people just
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:18
			covered people's, you know,
blessings or power, because when
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:21
			you have wealth, you have usually
status, usually a power. So
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24
			sometimes it's just a matter of
wanting to be close to you so that
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:28
			they can absorb and take and take
advantage of you. So it's a very
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:31
			difficult life. And that's why you
see a lot of people who become
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:34
			wealthy, what happens, they become
reckless, right, they become
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			recluse, they completely go off
the grid, they're very small
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:40
			circles, they lose a lot of
friends, people when won the
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:44
			lottery, there's some really
outlandish stories of examples of
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:49
			people who've won the lottery, and
then, you know, lost a lot of
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:54
			people in their life, or go and
they get rich and these big, you
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:58
			know, get rich schemes. And then
so money is a tribulation, but if
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			you don't have it, what happens is
che thought, of course, knows that
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:04
			we're vulnerable. So he will come
and he'll, you know, make you
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:07
			think that it would fix all of
your problems, you know, if you
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			just had more money,
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			but there's a lot of cautionary
tales. And that's just not true.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:15
			So, at the end of the day, the
Muslim always knows that,
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:20
			to not be pleased with what Allah
decrees for you is actually a
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:25
			criticism of your Creator. And
that's, that's what we stay away
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:28
			from. Because if you're not happy
with what Allah has decreed for
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:33
			you, who are you criticizing the
one who decreed it for you? Right,
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:37
			and if I was kind of reminds us
that His most Beloved, the
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:42
			prophesy centum had every
tribulation you can imagine, and
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:47
			he was wealthy of the wealthiest
human ever to exist, but in terms
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:55
			of material wealth, he did not
have much right. So, if you if we
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:59
			forget that, you know, as as we
are reminded that gender is
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:04
			is surrounded by poverty and
hardship and disease and famine
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:08
			and struggle, because the people
that are closest to us are
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:13
			actually people who tend not to
have very much but remain very
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:19
			grateful for what they have.
Right? That that is that it shapes
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			your understanding that everything
you have is from online, you just
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			have to stay in a state of
gratitude, but at least will will
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:30
			make us ungrateful and that is the
core of a lot of the disease of
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33
			the heart is that there's an
ingratitude that you're denying
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			something that is true, which is
also kind of data
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:41
			gives to some, and he doesn't give
to others, everybody's tested. But
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:44
			if you remain patient, and you
remain grateful, as he promises,
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:48
			you will increase you and it is a
measure of, it's not a measure of
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:52
			your worth, just because you don't
have certain things, the way you
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:58
			accept and submit is a measure of
your right to whatever it is. And
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:02
			that's truly what we should all
aspire for. So then he goes on to
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			say, you just
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:08
			don't have too much more. So I'll
try to read the rest of this just
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:11
			so we can open it up if there's
any comments or questions, so I'm
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			just going to read a little bit
more here.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:18
			The man says that one way to
uproot eat envy is to realize with
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:22
			solid reflection, that envy can
never benefit its agents. One
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:25
			should also realize that what
people attain in terms of material
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:30
			wealth or prestige is from God, He
is all knowing and all wise, he
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:36
			knows best how to distribute his
blessings and to whom while we do
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:41
			not possess such knowledge, the
basis of the remedy for envy is
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:46
			step one, which is having a sense
of awe of God and active awareness
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:51
			of him as the ultimate power over
all creation. This diffuses false
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:55
			notions of misappropriated
blessings. A Hadith states that if
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:00
			you have envy, do not wrong
others. If one does not work to
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:04
			remove another person's blessing,
then his or her envy is in check
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:08
			and is not the kind that
necessarily devours one's good
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:13
			deeds. envy the devours righteous
deeds is envy that impels someone
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:17
			to wrong others. The amount of
Azadi makes a distinction between
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:21
			various strains of envy. The
states that have one hates and VN
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:25
			is a shame that he or she harbors.
If the person is not essentially
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:29
			an envious person. It is important
to be aware of the feelings that
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			reside in one's heart. This self
awareness is essential for the
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:36
			purpose of purification. So now
there's verses of the poem this is
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:40
			this text is actually a
translation of a poem. So there's
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:45
			a few verses here that I'll read
its ideology includes animosity,
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:50
			vying for the love of others,
arrogance for self worth and
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:55
			vanity, love of leadership and a
ver avaricious cupidity for
		
00:12:55 --> 00:13:00
			things, these seven causes in
gender and ask for a blessing that
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:04
			a disbeliever or corrupt Muslim
has that enables one to harm
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:08
			others or show aggression because
of it, then the malady of second
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:12
			wives is in such instances
permissible. So that's just those
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:15
			are translations of the verses of
the poem. So let's read what
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:20
			description of the further meaning
is. The man now delves into the
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:24
			etiology of the disease, or
without discovering the causes of
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:29
			envy, it would be difficult to
excise it. The first cause he
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:33
			mentioned it mentions is enmity
Adela, harboring feelings of
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:38
			animosity toward another makes one
highly susceptible to developing
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:42
			envy. Another cause of envy is
vying for another's affection or
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:46
			love, which can become vicious,
and its effect can linger in a
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:50
			person for a very long time, which
is often the case when siblings
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:55
			compete for parental love. On this
topic, one may read Frank J. cielo
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:59
			is born to rebel, a book with a
complex statistical study about
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:04
			birth order, and how children are
affected by it. How competition
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:08
			for parental love and attention
informs the child's personality.
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:12
			The Imam next mentions arrogance
to come with a major cause of
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:16
			envy. An arrogant man who sees
someone advancing ahead of him
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:20
			will feel that this person is not
worthy of such advancement. The
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:23
			pre Islamic Arabs exhibited this
when the bulbous eyes sort of
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:28
			preached the disbelievers among
them, ah, like Abuja, *, maybe
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:33
			even color I love an allegory. Al
Murray era Riera displayed their
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:36
			arrogance by rejecting them
Hammonds a little how to set up
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:40
			this man among them, their own kin
received revelation from God. The
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:44
			Quran exposes their feelings
informing us that each of them
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:47
			secretly wished to receive a
revelation from heaven the way the
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:53
			prophesy did. As mentioned in
chapter seven, verse 52. This was
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:56
			flagrant envy aimed at the
prophesy set. When people regard
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			each other as equal arrogance does
not foster
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:04
			However, when someone has suddenly
elevated rank the dynamics change.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:08
			Pharaoh grew arrogant and envious
when Prophet Musa A sudden came to
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:12
			him with God's message, part of
pharaohs problem was seeing that a
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:16
			prophet was chosen from among
people who he had enslaved and who
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:21
			he regarded as lower than the
Egyptians. Remember, that mentions
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:26
			as another cause for low self
esteem causes the feeling that
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			one's worth is compromised by the
fact that another person has
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:33
			gained more. This also was a
pathology found in the days of the
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:37
			chromosome seven, when the
disbelievers have put h pretested
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:42
			out aloud. If only this plan had
been set down to a great man of
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:46
			either of the two cities. That's
chapter 43, verse 31. In other
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:51
			words, they were so entrenched in
their mode of tribalism, that they
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:54
			could not accept the fact that
whatever was said it was a true
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:58
			prophet, because he was not one of
the elite of the two cities, that
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:02
			is Mecca and thought. In their
view, Hammonds voice I was too
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:06
			ordinary for them, too much like
them to have been chosen for such
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:10
			a lofty station. They felt how can
he be a prophet while he is like
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:15
			us, and we are not prophets. Love
of leadership is another major
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:18
			cause of envy, people in
leadership positions often resent
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:22
			others achieving something
significant. During a change in
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:26
			the equilibrium of power. The
envious leader desires that others
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:30
			are deprived of accomplishment,
and authority. This is akin to
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:34
			covetousness, which Imam also
mentions in the same line. There
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:36
			is, though a distinction between
covetousness and love of
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:41
			leadership, the latter, afflicts
those who have position already,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:44
			while covetousness relates to
those who do not have it, but
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:49
			desire it, abolitionists, this
type of covetousness, called short
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:54
			in Arabic is a desire to have what
is in possession of another person
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:00
			says whoever is safe from the
covetousness of his own soul is
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:01
			truly successful chapter.
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:08
			Lastly, according to the amount of
anxiety, because these diseases
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11
			are common to human nature, the
objection of the parties with the
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:15
			objective should be to transform
them into something beneficial to
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:19
			transform a disability into an
advantage, which is what
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:24
			successful people tend to do. The
bubbles I said, said there is no
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:29
			acceptable envy except for two
people. So there's two times where
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:33
			you can have one of them is a
person who has been given wealth,
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:37
			and spends it toward good causes.
And being such a person is
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:42
			permissible, because because one
desire is to have wealth in order
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:47
			to do the righteous deed of giving
to the needy. One may envy such a
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:52
			person desiring to be able to do
the same good as well, but not in
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:56
			the sense of hoping that he loses
as well. The other person is one
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:59
			who has been given wisdom and
teaches it to people, a person may
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:04
			envy the wise because he or she
wishes to be imbued with some of
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:09
			that wisdom as well, in order to
teach others. Hence, if one has
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:13
			envy, one should let it not be a
fleeting things like worldly
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:17
			assets that are usually recorded
and displayed for show. One should
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:21
			instead desire what will serve
once you're after, this is how to
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:25
			convert negative feelings into
positive ones. So
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:31
			the last to me at this point that
was made, this is differentiated
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:35
			actually, it's not envy, it's
called actually flipped up. So rip
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:40
			does Arabic word for permissible
envy. So you can envy someone if
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:44
			your intentions are right, and
that you want to have both just
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:48
			like they do. Because, you know,
you want to be able to benefit
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:52
			people, or you want to teach
knowledge and you see that they're
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:55
			teaching knowledge. And then you
also want to benefit people. So in
		
00:18:55 --> 00:19:00
			those cases, that's that's a
perfectly acceptable degree of
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:04
			envy. Because your intentions are
not a for them to lose their
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:07
			blessing, but also their noble
intentions, you know, just to want
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:11
			someone you know, their car, their
home, their marriage and children,
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:15
			their accessories, no, that's very
petty and superficial, there's no
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:19
			benefit of wanting what someone
else has, because you don't know
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:24
			if it's truly a blessing for you
or not. But to see behavior or
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:28
			actions that are virtuous and
wanting to have a part in that.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:32
			And realizing that you need means
to do that, whether that's wealth
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:36
			or knowledge. That's perfectly
fine. So just briefly, before I
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:41
			break for q&a, in general payment
of Joseba, in one of his tech
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:46
			scheduling has 10 cures for envy.
So this is a pretty quick short
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:49
			list. I'll read from here. He says
number one, if you feel like you
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:53
			have envy and remember, the
definition is very clear. You
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:58
			actually are compelled to want to
remove the blessing from another
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			person so it's okay
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			It's one thing to just you know,
feel that maybe
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:07
			you know that constriction, you
see someone has something you want
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			it, you've been wanting it for a
long time. But you don't want any
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:14
			harm to come to them, right.
There's no desire for them to lose
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:17
			it or harm. That's not considered
envy. You're just a human being,
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:20
			you know, we see the things, we
want nice things, it's okay to
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:24
			appreciate good things. It's when
you feel compelled to do
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:28
			something. And all the below there
are people who will plot and
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:33
			scheme and plan to somehow
sabotage a person's blessings. You
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:37
			know, people have lost marriage
opportunities, they've lost job
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:41
			opportunities, because someone
else interfered right, that is the
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:45
			degree that we're talking about.
So if you feel you may have that
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:49
			affliction, then these are the
cures that are recommended. Number
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:52
			one, we seek refuge with Allah
subhanaw taala from its evil, that
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:56
			you are fully aware, and you make
you know Toba and stuff them and
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:59
			ask or spanner to protect you from
the evil of envy because you
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:03
			realize it's a terrible disease,
to that you're conscious of Allah
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:08
			that you actually try to have that
Kappa and implement a constant
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:11
			awareness that last time is
watching you at all times nothing
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:16
			is escapes his knowledge, three,
that you're patient with one's you
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:20
			know, the person that you have
envy for, because sometimes it
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:24
			could be, again, a very close
relationship, whether it's a
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:28
			family member, a co worker, but
you don't retaliate against them,
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:32
			but you try to really, you know,
prevent yourself from acting upon
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:36
			the envy that you rely on Allah
Subhana Allah because whoever
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:40
			relies on Allah, he's advises him.
And this is also an important
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:43
			point. Because if you seek
something, instead of looking to
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:47
			the person who has it, pining for
it, longing for letting all that
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:51
			negativity fester, redirect your
heart to asking almost impaneled
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:55
			data for that thing, you know, as
almost kind of for the benefit of
		
00:21:55 --> 00:22:01
			whatever it is you seek. And that
is more of a, you know, get I
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:03
			mean, there's more a higher chance
you'll get the blessing because
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:07
			you're going to the source as
opposed to just wanting it. And
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:10
			this is where if you look in the
modern world, a lot of people
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:15
			through social media are afflicted
with envy, because they just sit
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:20
			around, you know, watching
everybody else's life and feeling
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:24
			like they're missing out, right?
There's this, it's a real problem
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			for many people, they can't help
themselves, just jump from one
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:31
			person's life to another, and then
they just sit in this healthy
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			loathing and hatred, because
that's exactly what shaitan wants,
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:37
			he wants you to feel terrible
about your life. Everybody else is
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:40
			living a fabulous life, you're
home, you're stuck you you're not
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:42
			going anywhere, your career
stagnate, you don't have a
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:45
			relationship, you don't have kids,
you know, whatever it is you don't
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:49
			have. And so all he does is focus
on all the things that you don't
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:54
			have, and he wants you to sit
there with just this feeling of
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:59
			inadequacy and failure, as opposed
to being proactive and realizing
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:03
			that maybe what's missing is your
reliance on Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:08
			Maybe you're not using the means
that we all have access to which
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:12
			is not right, how many of us
actually go and ask almost
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:17
			directly for what we want. Some of
us in our cultures, with our
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:20
			families, we may have been taught
like, no, no, no, don't, you know,
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:23
			it's a bit shameful don't don't,
you know, ask for certain things.
		
00:23:23 --> 00:23:29
			But that's not good advice. You
know, you have to realize that the
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:32
			only one who gives you your
blessings, and everything is
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:37
			Allah, so having a report or a
relationship with Him, where you
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:44
			really see him as the money, that
source of all blessings is much
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:47
			better than turning your heart
from him for certain things and
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:51
			only going to him in crisis mode,
which is what a lot of us do,
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:55
			right? When we're in crises or
when we have problems we turn to
		
00:23:55 --> 00:24:00
			him, but almost Panda, you know,
he wants us to, he wants us to
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:05
			have this connection with him,
where we turn to Him always as the
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:11
			first point of every need that we
have. Right? This is why our
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:15
			scholars remind us like the Sahaba
they were known and even, you
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:20
			know, other generations for doing
istikhara for pretty much
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:24
			everything. Like it's the hotter
right, it's a dog that how many of
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:28
			us have been conditioned to think
you only do it for big decisions,
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:32
			right? But they would do it for
everything. Because their reliance
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:37
			on the last panel was so strong.
They didn't want to make any move
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:41
			without feeling some assurance
that they turn to Allah and first
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:45
			and foremost asked him if it's
good for me, bring it to me if
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:48
			it's not keep it you know, keep it
distant from me. They had that was
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:51
			like an automatic default. That
was what they did. And then they
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:54
			acted as you know, their hearts
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:58
			felt compelled, but but the point
is, is we've been disconnected
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			from that, too.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:04
			recommend, we only sometimes go to
da for very specific things, but
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:09
			not for everything. You know, just
imagine if you have a need, you
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			know, you have a concern or fear.
If you're always like, I'm going
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:18
			to drop to my knees and just turn
to mobile, how much more that
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:24
			would solidify your relationship
and also increase your dependence
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:28
			on him, emptying the heart of
being preoccupied number five,
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:31
			emptying the heart of being
preoccupied with or thinking about
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:35
			the object of one's envy, we need
to turn away from you know, I
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:39
			mean, we need to find things to do
because it's usually when you're
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:43
			not really engaged in beneficial
or good acts. They have too much
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:46
			time that you started thinking
about these petty things. But if
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:48
			you keep yourself busy and
preoccupied with important
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			matters, you won't have time to
sit there and envy people,
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:55
			orienting oneself towards a law
being sincere with him placing his
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:58
			love pleasure and countenance to
him in a place of fleeting
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:01
			thoughts of a soul. And its
baseless aspirations. That's
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:05
			number six. Number 77. Having pure
repentance to a live from the
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:09
			sins, his enemies have led him to
commit. So this is you know, just
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:15
			being a person of Tober really
being a person of constant Toba
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:19
			and realizing that you were
sitting all the time, and just to
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:22
			be in that habit, giving charity
and engaging in acts of goodness
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:26
			to the extent possible, because
that has an amazing effect in
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:30
			repulsing tribulations, that evil
eye, and the wickedness of envy,
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:33
			this is the most difficult
character, the ego and the
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:37
			weightiest opponent, no one is
given the Providence to undertake
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:40
			it except one whose portion of
spiritual strength from Allah is
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:44
			great, and it is extinguishing the
fire of envy iniquity and harm by
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:47
			extending good to us person. So
this is our scholars have
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:51
			mentioned this, if you envy
someone, you have to force
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:55
			yourself to try to do good for
them. Instead of you know, having
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:59
			these negative feelings and
harboring them, try to you know,
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:04
			just do good make dua for them, be
kind to them, compliment them, but
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:07
			go against your knifes, because
your naps will want to somehow
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:12
			vilify them, because that makes it
easy to justify the Envy a
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:16
			negative emotion toward them. And
then, the last point he has here,
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:19
			number 10, is this is the
compendium of all the of the other
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:24
			cures, they all revolve around it,
namely pure Divine unity and
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:27
			elevating your thought from the
effects manifested in creation,
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:31
			something nd revolves around to
the mighty wise cause of those
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:33
			effects. So again, just having
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:37
			a broader, more metaphysical
understanding of the world, you
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:41
			know, because when you get held to
what we call, like, the horizontal
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:45
			material level, everything is
reduced, it's very low. But when
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:49
			you started thinking of a broader
level of this world is temporal. A
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:52
			lot, you know, nothing is lasting
in this world. So even if a person
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:55
			has well, power status, there's no
guarantee look at, you know, what
		
00:27:55 --> 00:28:02
			we saw in these victims of the
earthquake? In Turkey, they were
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:06
			fine, one minute, and then boom,
everything is gone. That's the
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:10
			nature of the Zinnia. So why are
we putting so much in this? Dunya?
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:14
			What do we know that nothing
really is. We don't have security
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:17
			here. This is not a place of
security. It really isn't. And
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:22
			that's why like I, you know, I My
advice to myself, always in all of
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:27
			you, is to take every moment very
seriously. Because sometimes, you
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:30
			know, people don't realize nothing
is guaranteed, you know, when you
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:34
			go out of your home, how do you
know you're going to come back?
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:38
			Like really think about it,
there's no guarantee. So if you
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:42
			left your home, with negative
emotions towards someone in your
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:46
			household, you need to have a jolt
of telkwa hit your heart and say,
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:49
			Wait a second, why did I choose to
take a chance? Right? Because is
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:53
			that the way I want to leave that
relationship with negativity,
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:55
			anger, animosity in my heart,
		
00:28:56 --> 00:29:01
			Fear God and realize like, that's
a to me, I think that's like,
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:03
			probably
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:08
			akin to like, * on earth is to
live with regret that you can't
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:12
			undo, you know that something
happens to you or them or whatever
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:17
			something happens, and you can't
fix you know, that you cannot do
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:23
			that. So be very careful with with
you know, taking it for granted
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:25
			that you're just everything just
routine, and it's all going to
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:29
			carry on as it does every day.
There's going to be a day it's
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:32
			going to hit all of us were no
routine you've ever had to be
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:36
			abruptly interrupted and stopped,
and life will never continue as it
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:41
			did before then. But if you are
aware of that, then you take every
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:45
			moment very seriously. So whether
it's just going out to go grocery
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:48
			shopping or when you travel,
please like take it very
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:53
			seriously. If you you know are
departing and make sure that you
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:57
			you know you're there's no loose
ends that you've really covered as
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:59
			much as you can especially for
like international travel
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:04
			or far travel? Like, I just think
we were just too comfortable. We
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:07
			think like, Oh, we're just gonna
get on a plane and then hop right
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:10
			back. How do you know that? I
really just, who told you that?
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:14
			Like it's a lie. It's a total
deception. And that's the nature
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:17
			of this dunya is like it's a place
of delusion, you know, we get
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:22
			diluted by what we think is
normal, but what's normal? And
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:25
			that's why that quote is right,
nothing is guaranteed except for
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:31
			what is it death and taxes. So the
things that are pretty certain are
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:33
			gonna come after you but
everything else is up in the air.
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:38
			So death is certain and may Allah
protect us and make us people who
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:43
			are mindful, to not take our our
days, our breaths, our lives, our
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:47
			loved ones for granted and to
really have taqwa and,
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:52
			you know, be careful with with the
amount of that we have. So, from
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:56
			the law, I know, this is a bit of
a rushed session to them. Sorry, I
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:59
			didn't want to keep you for too
long. It's 922. So if there are
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:04
			any questions, we can stick around
until 930. But if you are tired, I
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:07
			completely understand. We can all
go home and rest and get cozy in
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:08
			our pajamas.
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:14
			Any questions? Any comments?
Anything to share?
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:18
			Number one, it's coming. Who's
ready?
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:20
			Shalom.
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:27
			Ramadan in sha Allah, this is I
know, it's it's amazing. I'm just
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:31
			kind of marveling at how fast the
sphere went. As you all know, last
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:34
			summer was a bit difficult for me
personally. And my mother was ill.
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:35
			I also had my
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:40
			my jazz a ceremony here at MCC so
Claudia were reciting today was
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:40
			like,
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:45
			hit me in the heart of Charleville
protect and preserve him but I
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:48
			can't believe it's been almost a
year like it's, it's shocking how
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:50
			quickly time is running.
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:53
			So
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:57
			we're all blessed to see this
beautiful month come in. But if
		
00:31:57 --> 00:32:02
			you're not part of this community,
move here. Because MCC is all
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:05
			about the system all of their
experience, especially with our
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:09
			amazing bodied male not protecting
Preserve. I'm so excited and
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:10
			looking forward to
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:18
			your questions, comments. We'll go
ahead and like walk in.
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:24
			Or the hospital in the Linsanity
facility Levina Avenue, white
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:26
			middle smiling happy with a lesser
than happy with us over seven
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:28
			Subhanak Allahu
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:34
			Allahu masala was that a more
manly fantasy than our momento?
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:37
			Have you been on? Let's move on to
Salem. While he was.
		
00:32:38 --> 00:32:41
			In Canada, we caught up with the
MHC one and said I want to learn
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:43
			more to be 100 in need.
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:48
			Also, by the way, on Saturday, at
the end of every month, we have
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:51
			this HELOC on Thursday. And then
on Saturday morning, we have a
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:55
			kind of public support circle.
It's a thick of circle we really
		
00:32:55 --> 00:33:00
			have seen. We read the author we
read a question on sister Sahara
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:04
			this here. Does beautiful begin.
It's an opportunity for sisters to
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:09
			come together to hold each other
in safe space. We really want
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:13
			people who are just going through
things by themselves. If you are
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:17
			single, divorced, widowed, you
have grief that you're carrying
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:21
			with you, maybe you're going
through health issues, whatever
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:24
			your circumstances, whatever age
you are, please count comments,
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:28
			you're welcome to come. That's why
we created that. Inshallah, in the
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:31
			month of Ramadan, we'll do those
weekly, but for outside of
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:35
			Ramadan, their monthly. So the
Saturday will happen in Sharla.
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:40
			Here, nine o'clock to 11 o'clock
in the morning in this room. And
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:44
			then in Ramadan, those will be
monthly circles, where we invite
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:48
			all of you no strings attached, no
registration, nothing just come.
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:50
			The doors always open for you.
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:55
			Thank you very much. Any other
announcements so far also has a
		
00:33:55 --> 00:33:59
			children's storytime that she
does. If you're young children or
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:03
			grandchildren, please bring them
the live sessions are amazing. You
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:08
			get to hear her sing and read and
bring books to life. So we have
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			some wonderful programs here. Any
other announcements that you guys
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:12

Wolfie job day and sister Santa

00:34:25 --> 00:34:29

teen youth talk on post modernism
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:53

craziness that's happening around

topics, you know, LGBTQ love the
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:59

teens to that. That'll be at
