A young man talks about a story about a young brother in the UK who had no money and was doing fundraising. He explains that he gave all of the money, but felt uncomfortable because he had no fear of the floodgates. He says he gave it shaking because he felt uncomfortable feeling like he was giving it to someone who had a toothpick in the middle of the ocean.

00:00:02 --> 00:00:06
			And I heard a story recently about
a young brother in the UK, in
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:11
			England, and all he had was 150
pounds to his name. He had no more
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			money. Was the month of Ramadan.
All of the money had was 150
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:19
			pounds. And he said, SubhanAllah.
He said that the, you know, in the
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			mission that he was in, they were
doing fundraising.
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26
			And he thought to himself, he
should hold on to his money. And
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			then he realized, what is 150
pounds going to do anyway? What
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:34
			is 150 pounds gonna buy me from
this world anyway? He said, It's
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			like someone who has a toothpick
in the middle of the ocean, and
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			they're trying to hold on to the
toothpick to try to save
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			themselves. And he said, instead,
just throw the toothpick away, or
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			donate this toothpick, maybe
you'll get a big ship that will
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:49
			show up and save you. And so he
said, subhanAllah something so
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			inspiring.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:55
			He said I had to realize that the
source of my risk was arazak.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:00
			And so I gave all of this money,
but I gave it shaking because I
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			still had this fear inside.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			And he said, as soon as I gave the
money, he said the floodgates of
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			risk were poured upon him.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:14
			This is someone who was responding
to the name of Allah al Kareem,
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:18
			and not just in a descriptive way,
but living with this name in his
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			life. I.
