00:01:02 --> 00:01:02
			So the prophet
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			talks about health
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07
			and how it is a great nirma, a
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			blessing from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. And many
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			Hadith who just mentioned one today. So the
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			prophet says, whoever of you
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			is safe in his community
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:19
			and is healthy in his body and has
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			the food of one day, he is the
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			king of the world. This is the meaning
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			of
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			the hadith.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:38
			So
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			to be thankful for these favors, you have
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			to remember that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala has
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			given you all this. And all you need
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			to do at least is to say thank
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			you to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			Imagine your life without eyes.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			How would your life be?
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			Will you be able to go to school?
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:59
			Will you be able to go to work,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			travel, play soccer?
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			Will you be able to find a beautiful
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			wife?
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			They will just marry anyone in the street
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			and you'll be happy. You don't
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			know. Can you imagine your life without kids
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			if you're not able to have kids? How
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			much money would you pay to be able
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:17
			to have kids? Those who can have kids.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			How much money will you pay for your
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:22
			eyes and your ears and your legs and
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			your kidney and liver? How much? 1,000,000 of
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			dollars?
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:15
			So this poor man came to his and
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			he was complaining about poverty, that he doesn't
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:18
			have enough money.
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			So the scholar said, would you give up
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			your eyes for a $100,000?
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:25
			He said, no.
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			Would you give up the ability to hear
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			for a $100,000?
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			Said, no. Would you give up the ability
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			to speak for a $100,000?
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			No. Would you give up your arms for
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:34
			a $100,000?
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			No. Your feet for a $100,000?
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			No. So he said, why do you complain
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:43
			about Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala? He questioned him
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			and his khadab, and he gave you 5
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:45
			organs.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:49
			The 5 of them are worth a $100,000.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			You should be thankful and grateful to Allah
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			So this story is from one of my
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			friends.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:30
			His name was Rajin, and it was the
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			last year in college. And,
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:34
			he couldn't memorize Qur'an whatsoever.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:38
			So I asked him. That was the last
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			day in the oral examination of Quran, and
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:42
			the examiners came from outside our,
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:44
			department.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			So I told him, how did you pass
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			in the last 4 years although you don't
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51
			even be Moi'as Fatihah? How how did you
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:51
			pass?
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			He said, it is so easy. I'm the
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:57
			first to go to the class to examine
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:00
			examination room, and the examiners came from outside
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			and walked in front But this problem, he,
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:05
			he was handicapped. He had a difficulty walking.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			So he said, I walk in front of
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:07
			the examiner,
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			and as soon as I get close to
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			him, I fall down on my back.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:14
			So the examiner feels very sorry for me,
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			very sympathetic. He sympathetic. He would take my
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			hand and and relaxes me and said, masha'Allah,
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			I've said this, and I stopped crying. My
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			back hurts. My back hurts. So he would
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			say, no problem. Shama'a,
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:24
			go home. Do you need money? Do you
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			need any help or anything? Because I break
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			his heart, basically.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:30
			So this last year,
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			he got into the room
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:35
			and he he did the same thing, the
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			same trick again for the last time in
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			the 5th year in a row. So he
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:40
			said, I filled out on my back in
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			front of the examiner.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			It seemed he he didn't care about me
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			or something.
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:48
			He told me to start, you know, recite
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			the Quran. I couldn't say anything. Of course,
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			he failed he failed the exam. So he
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:55
			came out crying and he told me the
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:57
			reason why he didn't sympathize with me because
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			the examiner was blind. I feel down in
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			front of him. I almost broke my neck,
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			but he didn't see me. He couldn't see.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:06
			He failed anyway.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			So the question, last night was about Surat
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			Al Fatima. Why it doesn't have this Mila
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:29
			at the beginning? Some of the scholars say
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:32
			it's a continuation of Surat Al Fat, and
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			other scholars say because it starts about talking
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:35
			about
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			fighting and war, so it is not suitable
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			to talk about peace and fighting. Alayna and
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			mercy of Abla in Bismal
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			and the fighting at the same time. The
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			winner is brother Laila Abulfef.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:50
			Brother Laila Abulfef. Where is he? Laila Abulfef.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			Where does the Quran talk about the big
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			bang there? If you know the answer, email
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:09
			me before tomorrow asa@[email protected].
