Mufti Menk – Whom Does Allah Love

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

			We always read the Quran and in the
		

00:00:01 --> 00:00:04

			Quran Allah says, wallahu yuhibbu muhsinin. Allah loves
		

00:00:04 --> 00:00:06

			those who do good. So we do good.
		

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

			Why do we do good? Many people do
		

00:00:08 --> 00:00:08

			good because
		

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

			they think the person they are doing good
		

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

			to deserves it. I'm gonna be kind to
		

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

			these guys because you know what? They are
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

			really good guys.
		

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

			Do you know who's a winner?
		

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

			A winner is the 1 who is kind
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

			to those
		

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

			who are kind and unkind.
		

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

			They are kind to others because Allah loves
		

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

			those who are kind and not connected to
		

00:00:31 --> 00:00:33

			whether they are nice people or not nice
		

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

			people. The minute you're kind to someone because
		

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

			you think they deserve it, you will be
		

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

			let down.
		

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

			But if I'm nice to you because I
		

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

			believe Allah loves those who are nice and
		

00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

			kind,
		

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

			I'm never let down. No matter how you
		

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

			react, even if you let me down 1
		

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

			day, but in actual fact
		

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

			I did the goodness to you because Allah
		

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

			loves those who do good. Not because you
		

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

			actually deserved it.
		

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

			I was good to you, I was kind
		

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

			to you, I greeted you, I prayed for
		

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05

			you, I reached out to you, I gave
		

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

			you, I helped you up. Not because I
		

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

			want anything in return.
		

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

			Allah says those who give and those who
		

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

			feed others and those who help others.
		

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

			The true believers are those who say that
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:28

			we have done what we've done. We've fed
		

00:01:28 --> 00:01:29

			you
		

00:01:29 --> 00:01:32

			for the sake of Allah and not because
		

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

			we want anything. We do not want from
		

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

			you
		

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

			recompense
		

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

			and not even a thank you.
		

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

			We don't even want you to say thank
		

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

			you because we did it for Allah.
		

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

			Where are we getting to?
