00:00:32 --> 00:00:32
			So it's very,
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			astonishing to see people in Ramadan gaining weight.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			Okay? People should lose weight but for some
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			reason everybody I see people gaining weight in
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:42
			Ramadan.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			And what is even more astonishing to see
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			someone who has been married for 10 years
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			and is still smiling.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			Okay? This is usually a screen scraper,
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			screen saver.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			And this is one of the very effective
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			survival techniques
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			that people have developed over the years.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			Ayyum Shama Anakhi
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:04
			An
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			Ihdaan Rasali Al Abi Qapada Wa
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			Ta'ala wa He had infirmed
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:10
			Islam.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			There are 3 types of Ibadat in Islam
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			as we mentioned before.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			There is the verbal Ibadat
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			and this includes the recitation of the Quran
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			and Dua. You do it with your tongue.
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			Then there is the physical Ibadat
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			and this includes
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:00
			Salah,
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			Psalm,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			Hash, Umrah
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			and so on and so forth.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:10
			The third type is the financial Ibadat and
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			this includes Zakat,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			charities, Zakat al Fitr, and so on and
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:14
			so forth.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			So most of the people, they focus on
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			the first two, but when it comes to
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			the third type, they are stingy.
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			They hold very tight to the money.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:26
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:48
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says in chapter 4,
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			You will never
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			in Sahih Muslim, the Prophet says
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:34
			that charity
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			or giving out in charity is a proof.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:39
			A proof of what?
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			A proof of your iman, a proof of
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:42
			your taqwa.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			People can just say we are believers,
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			but when it comes to giving,
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			they withhold.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in the Prophet
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:55
			SAW Say that giving out in charity
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:57
			is a proof of your faith, is a
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			proof of your iman
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			at
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			So sometimes when the Muslim community needs your
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			contributions,
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:30
			when the schools, the Muslim schools need your
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:30
			attention
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:31
			and assistance,
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			and when the brothers and sisters in Somalia,
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			they need your assistance,
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			sympathy itself is not enough.
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:43
			Dua for them is not enough.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			You have to take something out of your
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			pocket and give it to them.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			This is the best way to show support
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			and to show sympathy.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			But just saying words,
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56
			shallow words, will not mean anything. And eventually,
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, who will call
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			it. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			Whoever will give a loan to Allah Subhanahu
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:32
			Wa Ta'ala and Allah will multiply it infinitely.
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is not asking
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			to take your money. He will say, I'm
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			gonna take it, but I'll give it back.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			Otherwise, the people would withhold and keep the
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			money for themselves.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:04
			So Abu Luh
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			Anhu said that the prophet
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			was the most generous of all people,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12
			but he was exceptionally generous in the month
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			of Ramadan.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			Sahib and this is in Sahib Muslim.
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			So in this Hadith,
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			a woman
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			saw or made
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			a a coat
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			or a a a garment for the Prophet
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			SAW.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			So when he wore it, he came to
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			the masjid, one of the people in the
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			masjid, one of the Sahaba saw it and
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			he loved it innocently.
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			So he came to the Prophet SAW Salam
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:22
			and said,
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			okay, I love this, I love this garment.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			Why don't you give it to me?
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			And that was the only one that the
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			prophet SAW Alaihi Wasallam had. So the prophet
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			SAW Alaihi Wasallam took it off
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:34
			like this
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			and he gave it to him.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			So after the prophet left,
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			the Sahaba came to this companion and they
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			said, shame on you. Shame on you. Why
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51
			don't you take the coat? The only coat
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:54
			that the prophet had. He said, I didn't
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			want to take it from myself. I took
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			it, so when I die, they make it
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			as a shroud for me. So when I
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			go to the grave, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:05
			will protect me from the grave and forgive
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:05
			me.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			And in one of the hadith that the
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:39
			prophet said
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			that this companion, Noyaman,
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			will come in the day of judgement smiling
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			because he used to make the prophet
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			laugh all the time.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			So Anwaraman
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:53
			knew about the generosity of the Prophet SAW
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			and he was very generous,
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			so he took advantage of the Prophet SAW's
		
00:08:58 --> 00:08:59
			generosity.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			So in in some of the hadith, whenever
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:41
			fruits
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:44
			or any food was brought to Madinah, this
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			companion, Anu Ayman, who who used to make
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:46
			the prophet
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49
			smile, he would buy from the peddler and
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51
			take the food to the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:53
			wa sallam with fruit. And when the Prophet
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:55
			SAW Alaihi Wasallam eat on the Sahaba, then
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			the owner, the peddler would come asking for
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			his money. Where is my money?
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			Then, Anuraman would tell the Prophet SAW Alaihi
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:03
			Wasallam, Paying it.
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			Then the Prophet SAW Alaihi Wasallam would say,
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			I thought it was a gift.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			So the madman would say, yes. It's a
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			gift. But I never said I'll pay for
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			it. You're paying for it.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			So the girl would say,
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04
			Can you join the salah with the intention
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:07
			of Isha? So the imam is praying 2
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:09
			rakas for Tawgir. Can you pray Isha? Be
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:11
			mad the imam with different intention. If you
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			know the answer, inshallah, email me before tomorrow,
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:14
