Respected viewers, we begin by praising Allah Subaraka

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

Wa Ta'ala. We send countless blessings, salutations

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

upon our leader, Mas'an Nabi Muhammad sallallahu alaihi

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

wasallam.

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

His honorable companions, his household and those who

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

follow him. We come to the 4th Jews

00:00:48 --> 00:00:51

of Quran Kareem. In the opening verses of

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

this of this Jews,

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

says You will not attain piety

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

until you spend from that which you love.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

Upon the revelation of this verse of Quran

00:01:09 --> 00:01:09

Kareem,

00:01:10 --> 00:01:11

Abu Talha Ansari

00:01:13 --> 00:01:15

He comes to the Nabi of Allah Sallallahu

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

Alaihi Wasallam

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

and he owned a piece of land, a

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

track of land

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

which is within the current Haram Sharif in

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

Makkah tul Muqarama

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

and he had given this this was perhaps

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

one of the most valuable

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

pieces of grounds in Madinah tul Munawwara and

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

he had given this on the name of

00:01:33 --> 00:01:33

Allah.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:37

What lesson do we learn when you give

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

charity,

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

give from the best of your wealth. That's

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

number 1. Number 2, the

00:01:49 --> 00:01:50

which is that charity

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

that constitutes the maximum benefit and earns the

00:01:54 --> 00:01:56

greatest reward in the eyes of Allah. Nabi

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

alaihis salam said,

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

When you are healthy, you're wealthy. You understand

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

the value of the rand, dollar, and pound.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

And you don't wait up to that point

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

when your soul reaches your collarbone

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

and then you say so much to that

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

institute,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

so much to that masjid. No. No. Sharia

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

has already decided at that point. You cannot

00:02:29 --> 00:02:32

dictate from your grave. SubhanAllah.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

Allah

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

exhorts us to give charity, give from the

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

best of that which you own.

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

Give from the best of that which you

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

own. What are the benefits of charity? Then

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

it'll be of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

said

00:02:48 --> 00:02:49

hasten in giving charity.

00:02:50 --> 00:02:50

Why?

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

No calamity, no tragedy will come after charity.

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

It will safeguard

00:03:01 --> 00:03:04

a person from an unpleasant death. People speak

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

about insurance and outsource

00:03:06 --> 00:03:09

and cut off the middle man. Wallahi, there's

00:03:09 --> 00:03:11

no better way that we could insure ourselves

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

and our families than giving charity on the

00:03:14 --> 00:03:15

name of Allah

00:03:16 --> 00:03:19

This is one avenue that Allah has given

00:03:19 --> 00:03:21

us like Fakih Abu Alaihi Samarqandi writes, he

00:03:21 --> 00:03:22

said that

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

there are 10 benefits in charity.

00:03:28 --> 00:03:31

5 you'll see in this world and 5

00:03:31 --> 00:03:32

ultimately you will see in Akhira.

00:03:33 --> 00:03:36

In this world, it will purify your health.

00:03:36 --> 00:03:39

It will purify your wealth, it brings joy

00:03:39 --> 00:03:40

to the poor people,

00:03:41 --> 00:03:42

it will bring joy to that poor man.

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

Unfortunately

00:03:43 --> 00:03:46

today that poor man is indebted to that

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49

wealthy man. The Nabi of Allah says on

00:03:49 --> 00:03:52

Qiamat's day the poor people will be given

00:03:52 --> 00:03:52

a kingdom.

00:03:53 --> 00:03:54

Allah will tell them

00:03:54 --> 00:03:56

walk around in Jannah

00:03:59 --> 00:04:01

Go and see if you could find anyone

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

who had given you a sip of water

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

to drink a morsel of food.

00:04:06 --> 00:04:08

Sahaba said I wanna be a fella, if

00:04:08 --> 00:04:11

we feed animals, will we be rewarded? He

00:04:11 --> 00:04:14

said, satisfy the hang of any creature and

00:04:14 --> 00:04:15

Jannat is yours.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:18

Satisfy the hang of any creature and Jannat

00:04:18 --> 00:04:19

is yours. So respected

00:04:20 --> 00:04:22

viewers, one avenue that Allah has given us

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25

is charity on the name of Allah. We

00:04:25 --> 00:04:27

ask Allah to grant us the ability that

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

we could utilize our wealth and channel our

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32

wealth in avenues that earns the pleasure of

00:04:32 --> 00:04:34

Allah. Till we meet you

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

again tomorrow.
