Mustafa Khattab – Closer to Allah 4 Attachment to Dunia Ramadan 2011

So according to the medical school,

according to the majority of the scholars, there

is no minimum time for after tax. So

if you come to the masjid to pray

Aisha and Tamir, and shut on one, and

you have the intention of after pass, inshallah

will give the reward of

In the past 2 days, we spoke about

the things some of the things that bring

you closer to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

And we said that the first of them

is knowledge. You have to have knowledge.

And the second one is to have a

good company.

They will always motivate you. They will always

guide you to get closer to Allah Subhanahu

Wa Ta'ala. But the bad company, they will

always turn you away.

So in the past 2 days, we spoke

about knowledge, and we spoke about good company.

Today, inshaAllah, we'll talk about

the detachment

or the attachment to this life. And this

is the biggest problem for many of us.

We are attached to this life. Most people

that work for this life, but they don't

do anything for

There is nothing wrong in Islam.

If you are the richest person on earth,

if you have the fanciest cars or the

biggest homes,

and if you are rich. There is nothing

wrong with this, but you have to do

something for Aqdil as well.

The life in this world is only a

transition. It's a very short life.

And as we all say in Somalia

life is very short.

And in order of Zendaghi the whole of

Tassaray, life is very short. Okay? So you

have to do something for the eternal life.

You are here only for rest.

The life in this world is only a

plantation for the next life. So you have

to do something for the next life.

So Yusuf alaihi salaam and Dawud and Sulaiman,

they were kings, they were rulers, but still

they were building something for the next life.

Some people,

they collect money from halal and from haram,

and at the end of their lives, what

do they take with them?

0.

They have no pockets. The shrawaks and kevin

has no pockets. They leave all the money

behind

for their children to enjoy, and they stand

the judgment

for it themselves, and they get punished for

it.

What kind of life is this? You destroy

the next life, the eternal life, for just

a short life,

and you work to make the life of

your children better and make your life miserable?

Do you know of anyone who took anything

with him when he died?

Actually, I do.

That if someone the person of them to

die will take half of the money and

half of the property.

So they had a $100,000.

So they swore to one another that,

in one of them, the Diasporas will get

$50,000,

and they will put the money in his

place. And as you mature enough, the husband

dies first. Heart attack and blood pressure and

all that stuff. And the lady is healthy,

Misha'Allah.

So

the lady, because of the promise and all

the old

she gave to her husband,

she said, I'm gonna give him half of

the money. I'm not gonna break my mouth.

She wrote him a check. She put the

$50,000

check-in his grave, and she she took the

$100,000

for herself.

And she never broke her oath. Right?

Yeah.

They asked me how do you feel when

you, do the translation back and forth, the

Arabic and English. I feel like this, a

blender in my head.

A blend

all the time. But very briefly, there was

a man walking in Jasper, one of the

parks,

and the the the weather was so nice.

He was looking at the mountain, the rivers,

the canyon, and all that stuff.

And all of a sudden, he saw a

lion. There are no lions in Jasper, just

bears. But the story says it's a lion.

What do you want, man?

So the man started to run away and

he was so terrified for his life.

And suddenly, he saw

a well, an old well. He jumped into

the well.

And he

he hold

tight to that rope in the well.

And all of a sudden, he looked down

at the bottom of the well, he saw

a what? A snake. A huge snake.

So he started to climb up. The lion

was up there

and he started to get down. The snake

started to move up to him. So he

started to swing from right to left. And

suddenly, he saw 2 mice, one black, one

white. They were chewing on the road to

make them fall.

So suddenly he started to swing from right

to left, from right to left. And all

of a sudden, he he found something

sticky on the web of the, on the

wall of the web. He tested it and

it was honey.

It was honey. So he forgot all about

the mice, the lion, the snake, everything.

And all of a sudden,

he woke up from his sleep. He was

asleep. Okay? So he went through the Sheikh,

he told him the story, the vision, and

the Sheikh told him, you don't know the

interpretation of the dream? He said, no. He

said, subhanallah,

the lion

is the angel of death

chasing you,

and the whale is your grave,

and the wall is your life, and the

2 mice are the day and the night.

The black and white mice the day and

night, and they are eating your life every

day and every night. And he said, what

is the the honey on the wall? He

said, that is

that is the honey is this dunim.

You are deceived. You are attached to this

honey. You forget about akhil. You forget about

death. You forget about everything until you are

faced with the reality, which is death.

The question for tomorrow.

what? 4 hours. 4 hours.

So the flight took off 1 hour before
