00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			We thank Allah and we want Allah to
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			continue to occupy us in that which is
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:05
			constructive.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			I'm not going to be diverted to respond
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			to such,
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			you know, to to such work because the
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			minute I turn to respond, there are 2
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			things. And this is how I look at
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:16
			it.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			When I defend myself and I have the
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			right to defend myself, I'm doing it for
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			my sake.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			But when I continue working in the field,
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			I'm still doing it for the sake of
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			Allah. Insha'Allah.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			I'd rather leave this 1. Let them think
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			bad. Never mind. No problem. It's okay. Let
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			me pretend like I didn't even see this.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			It's fine. And on this hand, keep on
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			doing your work. Because you know what?
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			I have a limited amount of time in
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			on earth. I need to pack away as
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			many bricks as I can for my building
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			in Jannatul Firdaus. Each day put in 20,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			50, a 100, 200 100 bricks. Keep on
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			pile. But the minute you look at the
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			other person's building or you want to respond
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			to someone telling you that you're building, there
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			is something wrong with it. You stop building.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			That's the minimum loss you're going to suffer.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			And you are now concentrating somewhere else.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			So just boost your iman and just say,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:10
			Alhamdulillahi, Alakulihal. We thank Allah upon all conditions.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			May Allah grant us goodness.
