			But if you've
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			had a bad relationship with someone,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			and you've been right on the other side
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			of the, you know,
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			the coin completely,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:09
			and you're
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			saying, do me a favor, I need this,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13
			I need this. And I say, for what?
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			They wouldn't even look in your direction. You
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:18
			wouldn't even feel comfortable asking them. So
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			Allah's example is far higher than that, far
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			greater. Allah is merciful. He's kind. He knows
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			you. He knows your struggles. He knows your
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			uniqueness. He knows your trials.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			Sometimes a person appears to be very, very
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			close to Allah. They have struggles.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			Their struggles are hidden from others.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			They know what they are working on in
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:40
			terms of eradicating their bad habits. A dark
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			habit you may have. It happens. We are
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			human beings. You may have something. If it
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			were to be exposed to the masses, you
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			would probably be embarrassed. If it were to
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			be exposed to your own spouse, you might
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			be embarrassed. So it's between you and Allah.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			Allah knows it, you know it. Work on
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			it.
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			Work on it. You can do better. You
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			will do better. You shall do better because
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			there are so many other things that you
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:03
			need from the same Allah whom you're transgressing
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:03
			against.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			One of the most important things is Jannah.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			I need paradise.
