Hosam Helal – Not Enough Money Ramadan Series Imam Abu Hanifa Ep. 10

Bismillah Al Rahman Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu

salam ala Ashraful, mousseline and Imam Abu Hanifa was sitting down.

When a man approached him complaining about his financial

situation. He told the Imam, oh, Imam, Abu Hanifa. I'm making $5

him a month or a day. And it is it is, you know, it's not enough for

me, I'm financially unable to maintain myself and my family. So

the amount told him, go back to your boss, and ask him to ask him

to pay you four instead of five. So the guy like, what are you? Are

you serious? He's like, yes, go ahead and do it. So he listened,

he complied. And he went to his boss, and he told him, I want to

make for that I'll him instead of five. So basically, I want you to

take a little time away from the amount that I'm receiving. So the

boss the guy, of course, gladly will do so. Then he came back to

the mm, the worker and he said, still, I'm not able to maintain

myself financially. He told him go back to your boss, and ask for

another dyrham to be taken away. So now you only taken three

instead of five. So the surprise to the surprise of the many

sitting around, remember Hanifa. The guy came back a while later

and he said, Thank you Imam. Now I'm able to have, you know,

blessing in my money and I'm able to meet my daily and my weekly and

my monthly expenses. So everybody was shocked. How was it that five

was not enough, but three was enough and more than enough, so

the Imam Abu Hanifa sat and explained to the people around

him, he said, the halal haram Jemele haram or Al halali, you

Fira, the halal haram or Al Khalifa bathala. This man was

putting in the effort that deserves three draw him. So

whatever he was making, on top of that was undeserved. And so he was

not able to use it in a blizzard way. But now that he put in more

efforts and took less reward, V was blessing and ALLAH blessed the

money that he had. And so that allowed him to financially meet

all of his needs. Now, interestingly, the poetic way of

saying it is he collected the Haram onto the halal to make more

of it. But in reality, the Haram entered the halal and made it

scattered. Sometimes it's not about making more money and asking

for a raise sometimes is putting in the effort and making sure

you're getting that which you're working for, that allows you to

have Baraka in your wealth that allows you to use your wealth in

ways and it means that are efficient. May Allah subhanaw

taala allow this phenomenon to be a way for us to rethink our

financial worries and to rethink the way we spend and the way we're

earn money is May Allah keep our money halal? Salam aleikum wa

rahmatullah wa barakato and keep smiling in Oman.
