00:00:00 --> 00:00:23
			There's like a lot I have the first question here, which is Allah surely provided some benefits by
sending COVID-19. But people are making fun of COVID as if it is harmless, and a thing to be made
fun of, you know, my standard answer to anybody is just forget about what? Now let me answer it
like, Okay, my standard answer to
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:38
			anyone is this, forget about what people are doing. You look at yourself, what are you doing, if you
are not reading COVID as a joke, and of course, COVID is not a joke as the people who are dead,
they'll tell you if it's not, whether it's a joke or not,
		
00:00:40 --> 00:01:05
			then Alhamdulillah you are fine. Take all precautions to ensure that you don't get infected and even
more importantly, perhaps, that you don't infect other people. So wear masks and so on and so forth.
But even more importantly, like you said in your question, and it says anonymous, so, I don't know
who it is where it is, you are quite right. reflect on the fact why did we get discovered
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:19
			today we have a case where people running hospitals are using this COVID as a money making machines
right. So, they are they are they are inflating rates and they are
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:40
			I call this the vulture culture they are playing the vulture culture game, which is that they are
taking advantage of people's suffering and keeping and taking advantage of depth stuff. So that
means you have not learned anything from this COVID thing. Now, is that how you want to live your
life? That's the that's the question. So
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:48
			don't worry about others think about yourself and say how is it that I can do in a way which
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:54
			which helps me to change my life positively.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:03
			Thanks to these calamities, how can I convert this calamity into a benefit for myself inshallah.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:34
			Second question I have here from Nassim How can we encourage a close family person to perform namaz,
a believing Muslim but lazy to perform notice? First of all, please understand that namaz is not a
performance, this is one of the big problems as far as the translations are concerned. Allah did not
tell us to perform Nawaz he also did not tell us to read namaaz or to make namaz or he told us to
establish a key masala
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:53
			aqui masala eucommia de Sala, the establishment of Salah This is what Islam prescribes. not
performing it, not reading it and not, you know, making it in South Africa, they read it in America,
they make it
		
00:02:54 --> 00:03:34
			in India, they perform it and nobody establishes it. And Allah told us to establish it. So first of
all is and I'm not playing games with semantics, I'm telling you seriously, if you think about
establishing what is the meaning of establishing establishing is not something that you do when you
are free that you do when you would like to do it that you do and you know, when you have nothing
better to do and so on establishing means that this is the thing which is the the suit on the pillar
on which everything else stands. Now, how can we encourage a family person to establish Salah first
and foremost by establishing it in our own lives? Number one, number two is to help them see how
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:51
			Salah will solve their problems in this life. My question to you is you want to help somebody else
understand the value of Salah, tell me when you have a problem in your family when you have anything
to
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:01
			to you know be which is a matter of concern. Do you do terracotta salah and ask Allah for this. Does
your family close family member does he or she know that?
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:34
			Make this initializer to Allah subhanaw taala said yeah, you are Lavina monoester you know, be
somebody was Allah. Allah said oh you believe take the help of sobor and summer, summer is not just
to sit on your setup on and wait for things to happen it is to make every effort possible to ensure
that you get the best possible results for what you have in mind. And then was Salah, and then Allah
said ask Allah MC da
		
00:04:35 --> 00:05:00
			so we established we get them to and we encourage them by doing it ourselves. In your homes. If you
are praying in your home that a lot of us today are praying in our home to get massages or clothes.
If you are praying in your arms and make sure that you make a plan for every Salah give a nice loud
advance everybody hears and unless you are living in falaknuma Palace, they will hear you, right so
make sure that you do
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:24
			Give her a nice loud alarm and you pray by Gemma. Don't force anybody that is counterproductive.
This is one of the things that people have to understand. If you force people you only turn them
off. So don't do that. Don't force them, show them the benefit of that. Right? Show them the benefit
of that. So let's look at this a beautiful, I mean I'm talking to Allah subhanho wa Taala You can
also talk to Muslims and why don't you do that? Why don't you do that?
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:32
			So that is the way to encourage people who have not praying shall have
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			any other
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			questions. Question D
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:43
			what is the best way to ask Allah for something
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:50
			beautiful question What is the best way to ask Allah for something you know ask
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:57
			Allah whatever you send to me I'm a leader which like whatever you send to me
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:59
			I'm in need of
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:22
			maintaining focus he said I am the I Am the the in need of whatever hire whatever benefits you send
to me ask Allah from your position of being completely and totally in need in a broken visa yada
yada yada I am yours Yeah, please.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:07:05
			Yeah, like give me Yeah, like give me because you you can give me because only you can give me an
Allah you know I don't ask anyone other than you and believe me there has to be true. There has to
be two you cannot live a life where you are asking a vital law other than Allah for things and then
you sit Allah Allah asked only you no no no you don't you ask also others No, he cannot we are gonna
stand before him and completely you know clear on target Make no mistake do not make sure not
anybody anything knows yet normally that on target. And then ask Allah that is the most powerful the
most powerful device is to say Oh Allah, you know, that I asked only use or give me because I'm
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:54
			asking and ask that with complete aids, total sincerity, humility, humbleness and ask Allah subhanho
wa Taala with complete yaqeen that only Allah can give. You know, there's a beautiful story among
the stories of masala Salaam. And I mentioned recently in one of my all of you know, I have these
daily classes, so those of you who don't know RTF inshallah, we'll send you the link to that you can
come to every day at 7pm Eastern time. I have a class Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, on each
day, it's a different subject to one is called o'clock of humanity. The next one is called leaving
Islam. The third one we are doing now, lessons from the Emilio Salaam and
		
00:07:55 --> 00:08:35
			now we are doing the life of Ibrahim Alayhi Salam and the fourth one is called wisdom of love man
alayhi salam. So do come do come to that. Now point is in the stories of you talking about how can
you ask Allah and get what you want, we are talking about we will look at the story of in the
stories of masala and before I go to that basic. I mentioned one very fundamental thing which is
never make sure ask only Allah. And then when you ask Allah insha Allah Allah will give you a second
thing is make sure make absolutely certain that the food that you eat, and you're earning are both
completely and totally halal. No doubtfulness in any of that, like, don't fall into the
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			trap is this is fatwas shopping is a
		
00:08:40 --> 00:09:20
			is a hobby. All the malls have shut down except for the football malls. So don't Don't do that.
Don't look for loopholes. Yeah, you know, and then so nobody knows. So a solicitor and him said I
can do that. And so and so said this, whatever anyone said or didn't say it is your life, if you
want to compromise and if you want to destroy the acceptability of your dog, then it is your choice,
but if you want to ensure that your remains strong, that Allah will give you inshallah, what you ask
if you want that, then make the effort, make the effort to ensure that you never earn anything haram
and you never eat anything.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:39
			vegetating no ship, no harm in your earning and in your in the food that you eat. And of course,
obviously, no harm in whatever other actions you do. So if you do that, in shall advise except now
we come to the story of Musa alayhis salam there was in the time I was at a salon
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:57
			in a young man who was very, very bad. He was a huge troublemaker. He was a big time sinner. He
committed all kinds of crimes he was a made a nuisance to his people. To the extent that the people
throw him out of the tub
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			they chucked him out.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:15
			And they said isn't enough is enough, we cannot bear with you anymore. And so they threw him out of
town or this fellow was in the wilderness and obviously, you know, in the wilderness, I don't know,
what he was getting to eat and so on and so forth. So he,
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:59
			in the process of that he felt sick. And obviously there's no no one to take care of him. He's got
no doctors to go to and all that the man died. Now, when this man was dead, Allah subhanaw taala
said, we're here to know to masala salam, Allah subhanaw taala said that person who the people
townspeople threw him out of the towel, he's in such a place. You go and do his janazah you'd go and
give a puzzle and put his coffin and bury him and pray for his mother and I love that I can forgive
anyone. Allah does not need anybody's daughter to forgive. But this is the as as this is the
honoring of the person that Allah sends somebody, not just any ordinary person. He sends one of the
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:18
			EU Lhasa minella Mia, Amina Rasul Allah salam, to make dua of Nikita for that person. And then Allah
subhanaw taala says, you do all this and before you go is announced it in the town, that you are
going to do this and whoever accompanies you. Allah said, I will forgive that person also.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:33
			So Masonic salam, we are talking about how to make it acceptable. So Musa alayhis salam announced in
the town was our Islam said, I have got this order from Allah, to go and bury this person who you
guys threw out, and
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:40
			to make his love of Allah and said that whoever comes with me, Allah will forgive him also,
obviously the whole,
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:47
			the whole downward, huge crowd, they went there they, Musa Salam gave also to this
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			boy to this young man, and then he may discover
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:55
			him in his grave, and Musa Salam made
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:02
			joint with him. And of course, Allah promised to forgive the whole anyone who was joining
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:09
			him in this walk and so on. He probably told everybody had gone was on a Salam
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:40
			ala what is the story? I mean, here was this guy was so bad. And he was, you know, such a nuisance
to everybody. And people throw him out. And then now you send me to make his Mackerras. And he was
you also promised to forgive all the people on the town's website what it is man do. So Allah
subhanaw taala zotrim Allah say, Musa and think about all of this thing, which I'm telling you all
that this boy this young man did, how did he do that? He did it because of the nature of Islam.
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:47
			Who inspired him to do that? Who gave him the words to ask what he asked, I'm going to tell you
based on what he has,
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:49
			this is our agenda.
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:57
			So masala Sallam said that Allah Allah said to Sara, Sara Musa, this boy, when he was dying, he was
lying on the ground.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			He knew his life was going.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:12
			He said the boy look to the right. And he could see nobody because he is in the wilderness. He says
no one there. So he said he looked to the right. He couldn't see anybody. You look to the left. He
could not see anybody.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:14
			He said then he looked up.
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:17
			He said he looked up.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:27
			And he said to me, he said, Oh Allah Jalla Jalla. He said, Yara, he said, he said, Oh Allah.
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			He said Allah, if I knew
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:37
			that, by not forgiving me.
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:48
			If I knew that by not forgiving me, it would increase your glory and majesty, even by an atom, even
by Allah.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			He said, I would not ask for forgiveness.
		
00:13:53 --> 00:14:07
			Listen to what he said, Oh Allah. If I knew that, by not forgiving me, it would decrease your glory
and majesty, even by an atom.
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:10
			I would not ask you to forgive me.
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:32
			And then he said, Oh Allah, if I knew that, you would like to punish me. And that you would enjoy
it. You like to do that even to the extent of an atom, you would like it a little bit, to punish me
to give me as if I knew that. I will not ask you to forgive me.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:56
			But he said, Oh Allah. I know that by forgiving me, Your glory and majesty, it will do nothing to
it. If you forgive me Your glory and majesty will not be decreased by anything at all. And I know
that you don't want to give me as a I know that you do not want to do do not want to punish me. So
please forgive me.
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			Please forgive me
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			and I will
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:21
			About Alessandra masala Salam yamasa you're talking about the people of the town. I love it. This
boy asked me this young man asked me with such humility with such a broken, desperate, you know,
with just such desperation that if he are asked me to forgive every inhabitant of the earth I would
have forgiven them.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:24
			As I said to you,
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			think about it also and say, who gave him the words to ask?
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			This is our agenda.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:39
			I have a
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:52
			I have another question here. Is there any book or lecture you recommend to learn about a regular
day daily routine in the life of Rasul Allah.
		
00:15:55 --> 00:16:33
			There are, you know, read first of all read the basic fundamentals books of Syrah. If you are
reading English, then I recommend Martin Lynx book, the life of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam
from the earliest sources. I would also recommend my book leadership lessons from the life also
Salaam. And my second book, which is called Syrah is the answer. So read them if you are reading. Of
course, our whole motto is another very beautiful book of mallamma, Mubarak Puri, which is the
origin it is in Arabic, but it's translated into Judo and English and in many languages.
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:54
			So my book also leadership lessons from the life of a sorcerer Salim is translated into five
languages, including Arabic, so you can read any of those books. And then you can get the routine of
Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam from that. But broadly speaking, Rasulullah Salallahu Salam used to
create 100 every day. So he would spend
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:40
			the last third of the night in many cases half of the night, in some cases, three quarters of the
night. So do whatever you can do, to the extent that you can do it, but definitely pray, because I'm
used to pray every single day. And then he would, sometimes he would sleep a little bit before a
little further, sometimes he would go directly to salaat. And further, he would pray further. And
then he would sit in the car, he would answer questions of people, and so on and so forth. And he
would make Vicar and the visa sell, and then after that would pray for Salah to Doha, two plus two.
So this was his routine in the morning. And
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:57
			then if there was any food in the house, he would eat breakfast, if he wasn't fasting, and if he was
fasting, then he would fast. Sometimes he would ask, Is there any food and there, they would say,
there is no food, and then he would say, then in that case, I'm fasting, because he wouldn't have
eaten before before
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			Salatu tahajjud. So, therefore, um, the law he,
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:15
			he would, he would say, I'm fasting, and then he would, he would go about his, his, his work and of
course, obviously during the course of that Zahara sir, memory Anisha
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:32
			and then he, you know, his, his work was very different in many cases, sometimes it was a work of
state, sometimes it would be military expeditions, sometimes it would be teaching and learning and
so on. So, this is what he would do. Now, one point I want to make here is that
		
00:18:33 --> 00:19:16
			it is not so much the nuts and bolts of what he did, all of those are also very important. And if
someone is saying that I will wake up at this time because the Nabi sallallahu Sallam woke up at
this time, I will eat this and drink that because I liked those things and he liked to eat and drink
them and inshallah this if you do that, this is amounting to following the Sunnah. This is something
which Allah subhanho wa Taala will love you for and this is something which Allah will reward you
for no problem with that. But on the other hand, if you just lead your life, the routine things that
you do, which is fulfilling all the form is all whatever ulimate for do that and do that at the
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:54
			right time, don't press a lot of other there is a time for some other projects, a lot of other is
not whenever you wake up, right so make sure that you are following, the sooner in that context
which is praying the agile, measuring that you are praying all the four Salawat at their correct
time, and then ensuring that you are paying Zakat, ensuring that if you have the ability, at least
once in your lifetime that you make Hajj ensuring that you've asked the all of Ramadan, May Allah
give you the health and the ability to do that. Make sure now those who want to follow the sun and
the routine, no sudden moves too fast every Monday and every Thursday, and he would fast the
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:59
			13th 14th and 15th of each month. If you do that, you will be faster
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			For totally around 180 something days in the whole year,
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:49
			which is you know, 100 as well that that's like half the year, then wrestlers are seldom used to
fast the first nine days of Zul hijjah, which is just now around the corner is coming up. He's too
fast all the first of the nine days, which obviously would include yamaraja and it will save you
from the needless arguments about which is the day which is Yamanaka. Is it nine julija in my
country, or is it when people are standing in arafa in hajj, this is a standard you know, argument,
there's no need for all that fast the nine days the first nine days of the ledger because the 10
days are the best days. The 10th of the ledger is Java eight. So you cannot fast on that day, but
		
00:20:49 --> 00:21:31
			the first nine days, just fast the first nine days inshallah you have got jambul arafa. For those of
you who want to know what is our lava Yola is the name given to the ninth of July. When is your mole
arafa in America, when it is the ninth of July, in America, but when it is nine knowledge in
America, there is no one standing on the field of arafa. Don't worry about that. You are not fasting
for that you are fasting because it is the ninth of July. And if that is the ninth of religion, in
your country, whether it is America, whether it is England, whether it is Canada, whether it is
Australia, whether it is India, Iceland, Greenland, wherever or the Antarctic, that is ninth of
		
00:21:31 --> 00:22:05
			julija, which is yambol arafa. For you, Sam answering the question also, but don't worry about that
just just fast for the first nine days of the ledger, and you are good to go. As soon as you do
that. He also used to verse the 10th of Muharram. And he said if I am alive The next year, I will
fast also nine of moharram. So he would say he said I will fast ninth and 10th of Muharram but he
passed away before that, but you can fast ninth and 10th of Muharram or if you miss the ninth and
fast 10th and 11th of
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:19
			Muhammad Allah. So these are the routines of masala Sara Sara, I'm trying to be as brief as
possible, but read the scenery, these books of Sierra inshallah, it will give you a lot of guidance
with respect to that.
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:30
			Giacomo Karen, thank you very much. May Allah bless you and guide us in sha Allah.
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:32
			Any other?
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:35
			Yes, we have another question, gee,
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:45
			the thing I have money to buy a house but I don't want to buy it as I don't see much merit in it,
that I would invest it in apcera. Am I doing an injustice to my family?
		
00:22:47 --> 00:23:00
			The question here is I have money to buy a house, but I don't want to buy it. I would rather invest
that money in my ophira Am I doing injustice to my family? Now the issue is this.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:06
			If you have money and you want to invest in the Akira,
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:46
			do you have the right to do that? Of course there is absolutely no doubt about that. Allah subhanaw
taala told you to invest in your pocket. So if you're investing in aka, nothing to apologize to
anybody about Yes, you have the right to do that. Please do that. However, the question is this in
the process of investing in the market, if I end up begging my family, meaning that the money which
otherwise would have been beneficial to them, I'm taking it away from them. And I am saying I'm
investing in my Acura no that is not investment in your aka you are depriving your family of what is
there right now.
		
00:23:47 --> 00:24:31
			What about buying a house, if you are buying that house with the intention, that inshallah you will
be able to live with your family in that house and worship Allah subhanho wa Taala and leave this
house as an inheritance for your family, then that action is investing in your accurate spending on
your family is investment in your Acura because as soon as I said the best soccer is that which you
give to your own close family members which is the money that you spend on your own close family
member so money that you spend on your spouse, your wife or husband the money that you spend on your
children. This is the best of soccer Alhamdulillah the money that you give to your parents the money
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:46
			that you give to a sibling, this is the best of charity insha Allah now obviously that does not mean
and it does not include being extravagant about it. I'm not saying by each of them a Ferrari No,
that is not that that is that is rough that is
		
00:24:48 --> 00:25:00
			that would be it would be excessive right? So don't buy each of them a Ferrari. Just buy them a
Mercedes 500 sL I think that's good enough. Now, the point I'm making is that seriously, we
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:44
			without, without, without exaggeration, what money you spent on your family if you're buying a house
and Hamdulillah, with that intention that Allah subhanaw taala will give you this as a gift and free
your family from the anxiety of, you know, how will you live and 100 no problem. At the same time,
say, for example, instead of buying a house, you invest that money in an earning asset, and as a
result of earning asset, you that money now makes more money for you in a halal way, then I would
recommend that and I've always said, investing in a house that you are going to live in is a bad
investment, much better to invest in, for example, property that you rent out, and then you take the
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:54
			rent, and you live in a rented accommodation. So therefore, you have your asset, and you also have a
place to live in. But those are our decisions and
		
00:25:55 --> 00:26:31
			things of more financial nature, but definitely spending on your family is to spend in on your own
accurate. So do not think these are two separate things. Having said that, you still don't want to
buy a house. And maybe you have a family who is well taken care of, and so on and so forth. And you
say I want to invest in my Acura and therefore, I want to spend money on orphans and widows and I
want to build a hospital and I want to do all of that. Oh, absolutely. No problem. Please go ahead.
May Allah give us the strength and power and an ability to do that? May Allah reward you in keeping
with His Majesty? And this
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:37
			is another question Do
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:48
			we see around us that Muslims are low in efflux? What is the reason? Obviously it is our
accountability to Allah. But how can we turn this around?
		
00:26:50 --> 00:27:30
			We see the question is we see around us Muslims who are low in o'clock, how can we turn that around?
We know that's a quite a question of accountability to Allah. What can we do? I think you at least
part of the answer, if not, the whole answer is given in the question itself, which is it's a
question of accountability to Allah. Second thing is, again, go to the ciroc see how Rasulullah
sallallahu Sallam dealt with, with the issue of of La rasulillah salam dealt with the issue of
o'clock by having himself in nacala. colloquy Nazim, Allah said, You are on the best of luck luck,
by having the best of luck himself. So I would suggest and there is no offense meant to anybody.
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:43
			Maybe the person who asked the question is already on the best of luck. Holla Holla. But I am saying
look at your own account, don't look at the clock of the Muslim, look at your own clock. See how you
react when you are provoked? And what's wrong with that as employees that
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:51
			is how you do it. When you are provoked to say salam alikoum or do start
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			talking about the nature of that person.
		
00:27:56 --> 00:28:04
			That's the that's the fundamental question, which is, how, what are my like, what is the meaning of
a lot of the Muslims as
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:35
			soon as an asylum demonstrated that to the best of his ability, there is a beautiful story about
America cover of the land, where Barbara Delano was in his house and a man came, and this man was
henpecked, is hire a wife was, you know, very loud mouth and she was bad behaved and she would, you
know, scream at him, and so on and so forth. And I got sick and tired of that. So he said, I'm going
to go to the overrun and complain, I'm going to ask him, give me some advice. So the man goes to
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:42
			the house a little bit tougher than I know. And as he is, he stands there and he
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:49
			knocks on the door. But before the door can open, he hears the wife
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:53
			yelling at him.
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:58
			And he does not hear any sound, any retaliatory yelling.
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:12
			So he just stands there and listens for a while. Wow, this is fantastic. I'm the man I came to ask
for advice about what to do about a wife who is you know, who is
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:22
			yelling at you. I mean, I find the same thing happening to him. So he, when the yelling stopped, the
man
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:48
			turned around and he started going back. So Setsuna Omar Abdullah, who opened the door and his other
man, he called him. He said, You came to see me. He said, Yes. He said, What was it about? He said,
Yeah, well, woman, I came to ask you about a matter, which is that my wife yells at me, she screams
at me. You know, she does this all the time. I'm sick and tired of this thing. So I came to ask you
What should I do? But he said, You know,
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:51
			I find that you have the same problem.
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:58
			So I thought to myself, well, you know, what are you going to advise me and it looks like you are in
trouble yourself.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:11
			I want to let you know, when she yells at me, I think about the fact that she cooks my food, she
washes my washer, that is my clothes, she breastfeed my children.
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:14
			She takes care of my house.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:21
			She satisfies my needs, when I have the needs.
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:24
			He said, none of them.
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:28
			None of these is her duty.
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:44
			None of these is our duty. Yet she does all that. So therefore, when she screams at me, I keep
quiet. Because she is doing so much for me, which is not even her duty.
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:47
			So what right do I have
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:51
			to say anything to her? If she screamed at me?
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:56
			This is the meaning of the clock. This is the meaning of
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:12
			obviously the sisters who are listening, please don't scream at me. Let us not be some license to
say that our said we can scream No, please don't do that. The same thing applies to you. Also, here
is a man who has dedicated his whole life to your welfare.
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:45
			Right from the day we're married. This man has dedicated his whole life to your welfare, he goes to
work. People work, men work in jobs, they don't even like they work for people they don't even like
because they feel Oh, if I lose my job, you know, my family will be put to hardship. I shall not do
that. They suffer through their life. They do things they don't even like they do that their whole
focus their whole, you have to be a man to understand that Believe me, you have to be the wage
earner, the bread earner, you can be a woman, but unless you are the wage earner, the bread earner,
you will never understand that
		
00:31:47 --> 00:32:31
			there is a constant pressure on your mind. And believe me, when there's no one, allow me to be I
talk about the greatness and glory of Allah subhanaw taala about his his his being the result of
Houghton Mateen. So it's not a not a question of lack of faith in the Zakat of Allah. This is how
Allah subhanaw taala created us he gave us this, this feeling in the heart where the wage earner,
the bread earner, in most cases, that is the man has this constant thing he does not sleep in peace
because he's thinking, what about the welfare of my family, so give it some give that some respect.
Give that some respect, right? From the day you got married, this man has made your father, you are
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:43
			his daughter. So he worried about you? Well, he has to worry about who else really worry about
because you are his daughter, but your husband is not your father, you are not his daughter, he can
divorce you and walk away. He doesn't do that he stays there. And he
		
00:32:44 --> 00:33:04
			suffers whatever you choose to put on a put in his path. But he ensures that you do not suffer that
you do not have any pain that you don't have any anxiety and you do not have any problems. Give that
some respect. So it is something which is both ways. And inshallah I hope this is this is clear. Any
other questions?
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:09
			This is the last question. Shall we close after this?
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:34
			You mentioned in your lecture about eight people who own more than 50% of the world's population.
Yeah. responsibility on us to raise our voice against such injustices. Absolutely hold them
accountable. Yeah. Well, you know, I mean, the thing is this question is it people who own more
wealth than then 50% of the of the global population, this is a puzzle, I mean, I send you the link
to that this is
		
00:33:35 --> 00:34:16
			this is public information. Now. However, the point is, hold them accountable as far as injustice.
Now, if you go to, for example, Bill Gates and say that or Elon Musk and say that, you know, you are
wealthy, therefore you are committing injustice, and I will hold you accountable. You say, Well, how
the * am I committing injustice? I mean, I'm giving I'm employing 1000s of people, I'm paying
taxes, I'm doing this that the point is, is not so much injustice or crime because Islam does not
make being wealthy a crime Islam does not say don't have any wealth, and you know, live your life in
poverty. No, the issue is the distribution of that, well, the issue is concern for others. So these
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:55
			people, for example, these eight people or whatever, they may not die, I mean, not we're not
treating them as criminals. We're not saying these people are committing a crime, but at the same
time, you have a concomitant responsibility, depending on the extent of your wealth, to be concerned
about those who don't have that. Now, Islam is the only religion for example, which builds it into
the system where we pay zakat, and Muslims pay close to $1.5 trillion a year annually in Zakat, and
that's I'm sure that probably the highest figure of any community in the world. hamdulillah. But the
point is that this is something that we have to build into the system and say, What can we do to
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:59
			these people and help them to understand that if you own
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:26
			Hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars. Why don't you look at that and spend that in the
alleviation of poverty and suffering in the world? Yes, they are doing it to whatever extent but far
more can be done because of what they have. And very, very importantly, do what you can do with your
wealth. It's not so much about how can I encourage Elon Musk to spend money? It's a question of how
much money am I willing to spend. And
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:28
			he
		
00:35:30 --> 00:35:49
			says, there will be people who will come on the Day of Judgment, whose charity will be like half a
date, which they have given in absolute terms, but the value of that the worth of that will be like
the mountain overhead in gold. Because that's all the man had in bed, let me show Salam was a little
story from the Sierra
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:51
			Club was fundraising for
		
00:35:53 --> 00:36:33
			a man came to him and he brought a handful of dates in your hand, how many days in a row, right? So
he whatever he had, he had dates or something, he brought his handful of dates. And he said, This is
my contribution. And I have only this and this is my contribution. And as soon as I took this
handful of dates, and he threw it and he spread it on the whole pile of things, which other people
have given, and he said, Allah subhanho wa Taala has accepted all of this, thanks to these dates,
that is because of the sincerity of the zahavi with which he gave it he was a poor man, he gave what
he what he could give. So, I would say that, yes, by all means, raise your voice, yes, by all means,
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:48
			try to try to address the conscience of people, but much more, let us look at our own conscience and
say, What is the extent of my charity? How much can I give? How much am I giving? So, this is my
answer. I have a question here.
		
00:36:50 --> 00:37:21
			First, Mina chaos, how important is it to write a will of course, it is very important, I mean,
don't even let two days past or two nights pass before you have written a will. Please understand as
far as the will is concerned in Islam, you can't leave everything to your cat, Allah subhanaw taala
has prescribed specifically who inherits what. So the individual has the right to write a will
concerning one third of his or her wealth. So 33.33% is what you can,
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:23
			what you can
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:54
			write a will about the rest, the other 66% will go to those who are your heirs who inherit and Allah
subhanaw taala mentioned all of those in the Quran. So, I don't I am not going to use that here. But
that 33% 33.3% which is in your power to write the will about please do write, this is very
important to write that and to ensure that that is taken care of in your will does not go along
		
00:37:59 --> 00:37:59
			with that
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:06
			beautiful reminder from the best and mela makers among those who are
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:08
			not just listen to it.
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:15
			Last year
		
00:38:18 --> 00:39:04
			I am done with this I only want to thank God that Allah subhanho wa Taala May Allah bless you, we'll
accept your coming Allah subhanaw taala accept UIC gay guys for arranging all of this and enabling
us to collectively remember Allah subhanaw taala and make it thicker We ask Allah subhanaw taala to
ease the suffering of the world, we ask Allah to free us all from this COVID and to enable this
COVID to be a great lesson for us that we learn so that we bring about meaningful changes in our
lives and become standard bearers of Islam. For everybody else we ask Allah subhanaw taala to cure
all those who are sick with COVID or any other sickness We ask Allah subhanaw taala to forgive all
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:48
			those who passed away. Especially I asked Allah subhanaw taala to forgive our very, very dear dear
dear friend zulfi who passed away most recently and he was you know, I mean, obviously he was one of
our closest and dearest ones. We asked Allah to forgive him. Just yesterday I got news of another
one of my close friends farrukhabad followed by in Hyderabad, he passed away he was at one, we asked
Allah Subhana Allah to forgive him. I don't want to make a list of people we all know. But these two
because they just most recently passed away and of course, Moin Qureshi who was in Mumbai was in
Bahrain, we are he again died, you know, less than a month ago. We asked Allah subhanaw taala to
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:59
			forgive all of them to fill them filled with no and fill in the form of all the Muslims was passed
away. We know to make them among the guardians of the garden agenda. We ask Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:18
			All of us to give us debt on Islam debt with Mr. Devlin the Kadima and debt in ways which are
honorable and glorious, and which which show the glory and majesty and forgiveness of Allah subhanaw
taala We ask Allah to resurrect us with sola. Solomon is
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:51
			right, we ask Allah to shade us under the shade of his arch on a day when there will be no shade
except the shade. We ask Allah to show us signs of his forgiveness. We asked Allah subhanaw taala to
to decree that we will meet Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam at his house and receive the water of
alcocer from his blessed hand. We ask Allah subhanaw taala to decree that we cross the spirit behind
Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the hands on amount of Allah subhanho wa Taala
and enter Jonathan so those
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:55
			are some of the hardenability Manali he was Veronica
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:00
			alameen wa salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
