Mufti Menk – Imagine Loosing Your Hereafter

			And I sat down I said, Look at this. Sometimes the best thing that could happen to this child who's
hooked on drugs is spent some time in prison three years, five years because sometimes they are a
source of the deepest pain to their parents and family members. They don't realize I need to quit. I
need to cut I need to stop where am I going? How long am I living? The worst part is not where am i
right now? I may lose my hereafter. That's the biggest problem. Imagine losing your hereafter forget
about if you've lost a little bit on earth here. It's fine. We all lose things. But imagine I die
and then there's nothing there for me because I lead such a dark life that now I'm into a dark
		

			tunnel. May Allah protect all of us and our offspring and the ummah. May Allah guide humanity at
large.
		

			So sometimes the best thing is something you think is the worst. It helped this guy. It took him out
of the mess. It made him realize I've seen people turn to faith in prison. I've seen people become
Muslim in prison because they realize what Allah he this is something amazing. It's connecting me to
		

			the supreme deity, the power that exists, what is Islam all about? It has a uniqueness to it. Do you
know what it is? We are taught you worship the one who made you alone and you say, Oh, you who made
me You are the greatest for you, I will put my head on the ground and I will say Subhana BL Allah
which means Glory be to my rub, the one who made me and who is in control of entire existence, the
one who is the highest. That's it.
		

			This is the uniqueness this is what we need to strive towards being unique. I'm going to control my
temper. I'm going to ensure that I don't hurt the people who are closest to me, given to me by Allah
who's in your home. Allah chose those people
