00:00:00--> 00:00:04

My brothers, my sisters. The Sahaba radiallahu anhu

00:00:04--> 00:00:07

fought for us. They they embraced others. They

00:00:07--> 00:00:09

opened their hearts. It must have been a

00:00:09--> 00:00:11

struggle but by the help of Allah it

00:00:11--> 00:00:14

was made easy. Imagine strange people coming to

00:00:14--> 00:00:16

your home. You share half of what you

00:00:16--> 00:00:18

want you have from the bottom of your

00:00:18--> 00:00:21

heart. We are so clingy, we will not

00:00:21--> 00:00:21

allow

00:00:22--> 00:00:25

our brothers to drive the new BMW

00:00:25--> 00:00:26

that we've bought.

00:00:28--> 00:00:29

You see?

00:00:29--> 00:00:31

Don't even drive this. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

00:00:31--> 00:00:32

Don't drive. And you know what's the excuse?

00:00:32--> 00:00:34

You're not insured on it. I agree you're

00:00:34--> 00:00:36

not insured on it. Good. But move it

00:00:36--> 00:00:38

down the drive. Come on. Now you're not

00:00:38--> 00:00:39

allowed. It's illegal. And you know in your

00:00:39--> 00:00:41

heart, don't want it. Just now he's gonna

00:00:41--> 00:00:42

scratch the car.

00:00:43--> 00:00:46

Scratch the car. The sahaba radiallahu anhu scratched

00:00:46--> 00:00:47

their pockets and took out whatever they had

00:00:47--> 00:00:49

and said, listen. This is mine. Take half

00:00:49--> 00:00:51

and we share it. Abdul Rahman ibn Nawaf

00:00:51--> 00:00:54

radiAllahu anhu went out into the marketplace. He

00:00:54--> 00:00:56

says, show me where's the market. There's the

00:00:56--> 00:00:57

market. He came back in the evening with

00:00:57--> 00:00:59

a prophet. Allahu Akbar.

00:01:00--> 00:01:01

He made money.

00:01:01--> 00:01:03

Little while later, subhanallah, he made a lot

00:01:03--> 00:01:05

of money. Sometime later he was known as

00:01:05--> 00:01:08

one of the richest of the sahaba radiAllahu

00:01:08--> 00:01:10

anhu. May Allah grant us all sustenance.

00:01:12--> 00:01:14

May we all see the first 1,000,000,000 soon.

00:01:20--> 00:01:22

You don't know whether I was talking about

00:01:22--> 00:01:23

Zimbabwe dollars,

00:01:24--> 00:01:26

or pounds or what it was. But mind

00:01:26--> 00:01:27

you, that Amin was quite interesting.

00:01:28--> 00:01:31

May Allah grant us 1,000,000,000 of rewards. My

00:01:31--> 00:01:32

brothers and sisters,

00:01:32--> 00:01:34

I tell you something very interesting.

00:01:35--> 00:01:37

Allah praises the companions

00:01:39--> 00:01:40

in the Quran.

00:02:06--> 00:02:08

I start off with the end of that

00:02:08--> 00:02:11

verse. Allah describes the Muhajireen who were the

00:02:11--> 00:02:14

first people to accept Islam in Makkah as

00:02:14--> 00:02:14

as sadiqun.

00:02:15--> 00:02:18

The truthful ones. No matter what persecution

00:02:18--> 00:02:21

came in their direction, they did not give

00:02:21--> 00:02:23

up their faith. If anything it made them

00:02:23--> 00:02:24

strong.

00:02:24--> 00:02:26

And they became those who were loved by

00:02:26--> 00:02:29

Allah. Allah says those poor muhajirun,

00:02:30--> 00:02:33

those poor people who were driven out of

00:02:33--> 00:02:33

their homes.

00:02:35--> 00:02:38

And their wealth was taken away from them.

00:02:39--> 00:02:40

Because

00:02:42--> 00:02:42

they were

00:02:44--> 00:02:46

calling out to Allah alone.

00:02:47--> 00:02:49

Allah says for the sake of Allah they

00:02:49--> 00:02:51

left, and they had to leave their wealth

00:02:51--> 00:02:53

behind. They were driven out of their homes.

00:02:53--> 00:02:54

Allah says,

00:02:54--> 00:02:57

they were the ones seeking the virtue of

00:02:57--> 00:03:00

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. And the messenger sallallahu

00:03:00--> 00:03:02

alaihi wa sallam. They are the truthful ones.

00:03:02--> 00:03:04

Imagine you're driven out of your homes.

00:03:06--> 00:03:08

Imagine all your wealth taken.

00:03:10--> 00:03:12

If a day comes when you lose things,

00:03:12--> 00:03:15

always think of those better than you in

00:03:15--> 00:03:16

the eyes of Allah who lost more than

00:03:16--> 00:03:18

you. And it will help you.

00:03:18--> 00:03:20

It will help you. They lost a lot.

00:03:20--> 00:03:22

Allah praised them in the Quran. Allah says

00:03:22--> 00:03:24

for them is Jannah. Then Allah says, as

00:03:24--> 00:03:27

for those who lived in Madinah already, and

00:03:27--> 00:03:29

they had their homes in Madinah already, and

00:03:29--> 00:03:32

they opened their homes for those who were

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

coming in as muhajireen.

00:03:33--> 00:03:37

And they gave away things that they desperately

00:03:37--> 00:03:38

because the other one needed it. Allahu Akbar.

00:03:37--> 00:03:38

because the other one needed it. Allahu Akbar.
