One Of My Favorite Surahs

You see, if you look at the surah

in the Quran, which is very powerful, one

of my favorite surahs.

Amazing. I want you to go back this

evening

and read the meaning of the surah.

I want you to go back and read

the meaning of the surah and the next

one, surah the shara. This is Duha and

the next one is shara. Please go back

today on your phone. You can find on

Google or wherever you if you have an

app or whatever, you will find it. Read

the meaning of the surah because

Allah is explaining and telling us that

he will definitely give. He's telling Nabi Muhammad

Muhammad your hereafter is going to be better

than this life.

And don't think that Allah forsakes you just

because the goodness you wanted did not come

to you. Very

interesting.

Do not think that Allah has abandoned you

because the goodness you were expecting did not

come to you. Don't think Allah left you,

He did not leave you, and He will

not leave.

You come to Allah, Allah will come to

you even more.

You walk to Allah, Allah rushes to you.

In that surah, Allah Almighty

says towards the end,

I'm sure you know the verse. Most of

us know it, right?

Do we know it?

Come on, come on, come on. I used

to see one program long back. I don't

know if it still exist. There was a

friend of mine

who was managing this.

It was called Chinta Quran.

And first time I heard the meaning of

the word Chinta. It means,

La.

I said, chinta Allah, chinta Rasool, chinta Quran.

Muslim. I'm a Muslim, right?

May Allah grant us goodness.

Wa

ammasailla falaatanhar.

As for the one who is asking. Who

is the one asking? The beggar.

Allah is

Allah is guiding you

about

the beggar who you come across.

Allah says, When you come across a beggar,

a masa'il, a beggar, the one who comes

to you and he asks, now Allah is

telling you how to treat him,

how to treat the beggar.

What did Allah say? Look at how powerful

it is.

Allah knows every one of us is on

a different level. Right? Number 1. Number 2,

Allah knows that all the beggars are not

the same. Some of them are legit. Some

of them are a scam. Do you agree?

Some of them, you look at them and

say, there is a big,

sort of, you know, a network of these

people. They are more rich than you. At

night, they are driving Bugatti. And in the

morning they are Yeah. It it can happen.

In the daytime, they are standing in the

street, 1 rupiah, 1 rupiah, 1 rupiah.

See, only 1 rupiah. Only 1 rupiah. And

you know where you are going to give

1 rupiah when the rate to the US

dollar is almost 14,000.

I know. Right?

So, you will give them so much more.

They get it from Indonesia. What is the

population? 230,000,000?

235,000,000?

275,

280?

Oh, it's growing as I'm speaking. Masha'Allah.

Masha'Allah. Masha'Allah. Masha'Allah. Masha'Allah. Masha'Allah.

It's good. It's good. Alhamdulillah.

So, it's so beautiful because you might be

280, 300, maybe tomorrow morning will be a

little bit different. But

it's so beautiful because imagine how big the

population is. If you do goodness,

even 1 rupiah,

if everyone had to give 1 rupiah and

half the population or a quarter or a

third had to give, you would make a

100,000,000 rupiah in a minute. I'm just giving

you an example.

So, some beggars they know, big population, let's

go, let's do it. For you, as a

human being, you it's hard to tell. You

have to use your own discretion

while you want to help those who are

in need. You also do not want to

promote scammers.

So now it's very difficult because I see

someone

and to me he looks normal. Maybe I

don't want to give him, maybe I want

to give him. In Islam,

if you feel like you do not want

to give, you do not have to give.

If there is a doubt in your heart

that this man might use this for drugs,

or whatever else, or he doesn't need it,

or he's part of a scam, or whatever

else it may be, it's okay. You don't

have to give because Allah says,

Don't help people to do something which is

sinful or

wrong, enmity, and so on. Don't. So, it's

hard. I'm a human. I don't know what

to do. It's hard. So, Allah did not

say, As

for the beggar, give him. Allah didn't say

that.

Did Allah say, as for the beggar, give

him? No, he didn't. He only said,

latanhar.

Don't rebuke him.

Don't abuse him. Don't disrespect him. If you

want to give, give respectfully. You don't want

to give, don't give respectfully.

You know, my father,

long back, there was many, many years ago,

there was a beggar who used to stand

on the road, And in order to just

keep him quiet, I said

I looked at him from the window and

I said, tomorrow.

My father said, are you even going to

see this guy tomorrow?

Why you said tomorrow?

Maybe you can just excuse yourself or you

can say, maybe next time. But don't lie

to say, I'll give you tomorrow. When you

know you will not even see him maybe

tomorrow.

Don't give a bigger false hope. And worse

than that, don't rebuke him, abuse him. Hey,

you. You are a crook. Who said? How

do you know I'm a crook? I know

you are part of a scam. Today, sheikh

was telling us in the speech that there's

many scam.

Come on. Come on.

You're using my name also to do that.

So, we need to respect

everyone. Even those whom we are doubting sometimes,

give offer respect.

Allah says, you know what?

Your duty is to ensure that you did

not do something wrong. Even if they are

doing something wrong,

their wrong is against them. Your right will

be for you.

Allah says, wammasa ilafalatanhar.

Now my point is,

if Allah is telling you that as for

the beggar, the most important thing you can

give him is dignity and respect.

Tell me.

Dignity and respect is one of the most

important things you can give any human being,

including your spouse, your children, your parents, your

in laws, and whoever else it may be,

today we have lost that respect amongst each

other.

We don't respect.

So even if you treat me like how

Allah tells you to treat a beggar, we

would solve the problem. You see?

We would solve the problem. Look at how

beautiful Allah words it. Allah says, You know

what? It could've been you. It could've been

you. Right?

Things can change.

So, imagine it was you, and someone rebukes

you, they sway you. And so, you can

leave your You don't need to look in

that direction. I do it sometimes. People are

knocking the window, don't even look. Just keep

on staghfirullah. Oh Allah, help this person. Carry

on.

And if you are feeling, there are some

people you feel for them, you might talk

to them, they look like, okay, this person

looks decent. You might be making a mistake,

but if you made a genuine mistake, Allah

you because you tried.

you because you tried.
