The sahaba companions of the prophet and
want to learn from their lives.
Quality of the Sahawah of Walu Lawa Alaihi.
They always saw it
and they're always looking
for Halal,
this provision from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
So before we start about talking about halal
and getting your money from halal and resources,
we give you this story from a famous
guy in Egypt. May Allah have mercy on
him.
Sheikesh. He's very famous.
So a thief was brought before the judge.
So the judge said, okay. I'm I'm going
nuts here.
I'm not surprised that you stole the money
because you're a thief. Okay? I'm surprised
how were you were able to open that
safe and took the money with a pencil.
How could you open the safe with a
pencil?
So he said, the asshole lies in this
verse of poetry.
With patience, you can achieve anything you want,
and with Taqwa,
even steel and iron become flexible in your
hand. Okay? So this is the first.
So the judge says sentenced him to 10
years in jail, not for theft, but for
Taqwa. Okay? But because of his extreme
In this authentic Hadi, in Muslim of Tawhid,
in Sahih Bukhara, and other books of God,
the prophet says
that everything that brings you closer to Jannah,
I've ordered you to do. And anything that
brings you closer to the hellfire, I told
you to avoid.
No soul,
Jibreel has told me, no soul will ever
die
before getting
its risk or provision from Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala. So your risk is guaranteed
by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
So fear Allah and don't get the risk
of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala by disobeying it
because your risk is guaranteed.
So three things we learned here. Number 1,
your risk provision is guaranteed
by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, and He doesn't
forget anyone.
Number 2, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is providing
for you from halal resources, but some people,
they are hasty. They don't they want to
get their risk
prematurely, so they do haram so they can
get the risk. It was coming anyway, so
you have to wait for your risk. You
do your best, and Allah
will take care of the risk. Number 3,
avoid the
So in this story,
with regard
to risk provision being guaranteed,
So Layman Alaihi Salam spoke the language of
the ants as reported in in Surat Al
Nabi, the ants.
So he spoke to an ant and he
said, how much do you eat every year?
He's talking about grain of wheat. How many
grains of wheat do you eat every year?
She said, 2.
So he gave the 2 grains to the
ant and after a year he came back,
he found her. She ate or it ate
1 grain and she gets another one
for herself.
So he said, why didn't you eat the
other one? So she said or it said
that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala was providing for
me, and I knew that he would never
forgive me. I used to, you know, relax
and eat the 2. But now you have
taken care of me, and you started to
provide for me. I was afraid that you
will forgive me, so I ate 1 and
I kept 1 for the next year. So
Allah
So in this Hadith, we regard to avoid
the Haram of the law
as reported in Bukhary in Hadith Sayyid Bukhary.
A servant of his brought him some food.
So after they ate, the servant said, do
you know where I got the food from?
He said, I don't know.
So he said, before Islam, I used to
work as a fortune teller.
So it's a fortune teller.
Predict the future.
So he said, that guy came to me
and he wanted me to predict the future
for him. So I did.
I faked it. I pretended I knew the
future. I did it. You
know? Nobody knows the future except Allah.
So he didn't pay me at that time.
I predicted the future on credit. Okay? So
he now came and he paid me.
So I bought the food with that money.
So Abu Bakr the law, we feel so
sorry. He
stuck his fingers in his throat until he
threw up all the food.
So that some of the people said, may
Allah have mercy on you. You didn't know.
Okay?
It was a mistake. You shouldn't have done
this. He said, by Allah, if that food
didn't get out of my stomach except by
my giving up my soul, I would have
done it. Then he started to ask Allah
to forgive him for the anything that remained
in his stomach that he couldn't get out.
So that
much.
In this story, we conclude with it. Allah
is providing you from halal,
resources,
but some people are hasty. They don't have
the patience and they don't have the aqeel,
the trust in Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, so
they try to get it in in illegal
or unlawful way.
In this story, Ali ibn Abi Talib, he
went to the mosque to pray, so he
left his horse or mule outside with a
guy.
So he said, keep it for a few
minutes. I'll be right back with my servant.
We'll pray and we'll come back.
So
by the time he came back, the horse
was standing there outside
by itself,
and the saddle,
such of the horse was not there. So
the guy basically stole it, and he ran
away to the market to sell
It was the intention of to
give him as a fee for his service
to them.
That's a lot of money.
So he said,
He ran away with the saddle, and I
was about to give him a gift
for the service.
He sent his servant to the market to
buy a saddle.
So he
found the only one there in the market
with the saddle was the thief, the guy.
And he was offering it for sale for
what? 2 dirham.
So I said, La Hallam, here, take the
2 dirham. And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala was
sending you the money, the 2 dirham in
Halam way. Now you took it in Halam
way, and you incurred a sale upon yourself.
We'll conclude and we'll
