00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			So today's show, I'll continue our discussion about,
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			generosity.
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:27
			And one example of generosity is not to
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			harm people.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			Months,
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			almost 2 years, I've been talking about this.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			And most of the time, I remind people
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			to force a lot to
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			put their phones on silent or vibrate or
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			whatever. And there's not a single salaam without
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			phones ringing or alarms going on. But
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			So before we give some, examples,
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			from the generosity of the Sahaba, we'll also
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			talk about the prophet
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			because he was you know, he he is
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			the one who told Sahaba how to be
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:30
			generous.
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			And before we talk about the generosity of
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			the, prophet, we need to talk about the
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			generosity of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala because one
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			of the attributes,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			there are 99
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			attributes of Sifa'atullah.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			One of them is the most generous.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:09
			The generosity of Allah,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:13
			we always say in translation that he is
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			the most generous.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			And that that the, the reason is when
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			you compare the generosity of Allah
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			to human beings,
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:22
			number 1, Allah is happy when you raise
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			your hands and ask him. But human beings,
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			is happy when you raise your hands and
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			ask them.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			But human beings, although some of them, when
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			you ask them and and they give you,
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			and they put a smile on their face
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			like a screen saver,
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:37
			but from the inside,
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			they're inspired. You're not happy. And they make
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43
			God that if they give you money, that
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			maybe you would have an accident and you
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			would lose the money.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			You would lose the money in any way
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			because they are not happy with you.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			Human beings, they don't like the word
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			give. They like the word take.
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:17
			So,
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			we have this, story back home.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:21
			This
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			this man is not happy with his wife
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			because she uses the word give all the
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			time. Give me money. Give me this. Give
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			me this. Give me that. So he says,
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			you always the only word you use in
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			the English vocabulary is give. You don't you
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			you never use the word take.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:38
			So she said
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			that our
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			refrigerator is broken. Take it and fix it.
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			God wants to use the word take it.
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			You gotta take the water. Take it and
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			fix it.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:52
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, as he tells
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			us in the Quran, if you don't ask
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:56
			him, he will be angry with you. The
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			human beings, if you don't ask them, they
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			love you so much. They love you to
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			death. If you ask something of them, they're
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:04
			angry with you. Even if they don't show
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			you that this is the human nature.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			He gives those whom he loves and those
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:31
			whom he hates.
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:37
			And Allah
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			hates the as he says in the Quran.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			As we said before, the word and Allah
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			does not like. The
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			word could mean a disbeliever
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:27
			in his message or a disbeliever in his
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			very existence.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			Because there are at least a a 1000000000
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:31
			people.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:34
			1 out of 6 people in this world,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			they deny the existence of Allah It
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			doesn't exist.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:39
			1,000,000,000
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			people. Okay? They deny that the law
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			even
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			exists. But he still provides for them, day
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:46
			and night.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			Have guided.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			And this also applies to Muslims. Allah
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:56
			gives them everything,
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			and they don't say thank you. Okay? Either
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			by their tongue or by their actions, making
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:04
			salah to Allah which is a way of
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			showing gratitude.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			If you look at the favors of Allah,
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			subhanahu wa ta'ala, how much he has given
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:55
			all of us.
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:58
			I'm not talking about you personally, but I'm
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			talking about this whole world.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:01
			The fish,
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:05
			the gold, the silver, the oil, the precious
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			minerals everywhere. And I'm saying if we distribute
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:11
			all the, now, all the favors in this
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:12
			world, their sources,
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			fairly
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:17
			and equally, every single person among us would
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			be a billionaire.
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			So take oil for example,
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:24
			then gold, silver, pearls, diamonds, all that stuff.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			But human beings are greedy. They like to
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			take everything for themselves
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:31
			and they deny everything other people. Even if
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:33
			they have to kill their own brothers and
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:33
			sisters
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			to take money. Some people do this. They
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:37
			kill their own brothers and sisters just to
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			take money.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			Some people throw out history, even Islamic history,
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:43
			they killed their own brothers
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:45
			so they become rulers and kings in their
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48
			kingdoms. And this happened in, Spain and in
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			other places.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			The reward will multiply 10 times up to
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			700, and Allah
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:30
			gives more.
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:32
			But if you do an evil deed,
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:35
			then once a good evil deed, it will
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			be recorded as 1, but the good deed
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			is recorded as 10 up to 700 or
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:41
			more. The evil deed will be recorded as
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:44
			1. If you intend to do something bad
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			and you don't do it, Allah will give
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			you one. So Allah
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51
			is very generous even when it comes to
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			So people commit sins
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			all over in this dunya and Allah
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			out of his generosity,
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			he covers for them
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18
			and he provides for them. And in the
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20
			next life, he will even forgive those who
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			believed in his existence.
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			So in this authentic one of the examples
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			of the generosity of Allah subhanahu wa'ala, I
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			will conclude with this. On the day of
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			judgment is his forgiveness.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			Okay? For those who believe in it, even
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			if if you commit sense and try
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			to live a decent lives, but we make
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			sense here and there, but Allah, subhanahu wa
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:22
			ta'ala, will forgive you and show our His
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			mercy on us on the day of judgement.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			In this hadith, insunal albayha'adeen,
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:28
			a man came to the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:29
			wa sallam, and says, oh, prophet of Allah,
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			who judges people on the day of judgement?
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:33
			So the prophet
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			says, Allah. Allah is the judge. So the
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:38
			man smiled, and he said, we would be
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:40
			saved. We are saved.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			So the prophet
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43
			says, why do you smile and why do
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:45
			you say we're safe? He said because Allah
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:47
			subhanahu wa'ala is the judge, and he is
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			the most generous. And when the generous judges,
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			he forgives.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			This is Allah
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:20
			Also in this hadith
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:23
			and the authenticity of this hadith is questioned.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:25
			Some people say it's authentic. Some people say
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:26
			it is not. The prophet
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:27
			says, Allah
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			will shower his forgiveness and his mercy on
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			the day of judgment so much so even
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:37
			at least that shaitan will hope on the
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:39
			day of judgment because of all the forgiveness
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:40
			that Allah
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:42
			will forgive him among other people.
