So the prophet
says in this authentic hadith, or everybody in
Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him and
his father,
that
people most people have 2 blessings that they
don't understand
the value
of these 2 blessings,
and these 2 blessings are *
and
So the meaning of the hadith, the people
don't understand the value of these two blessings.
They waste them, and sometimes they use them
to destroy themselves. When you have plenty of
time
and you're healthy and you don't know what
to do, sometimes
you use your help, you use your time
to destroy yourself.
The best thing about Canada is freedom,
and the worst thing about Canada is too
much freedom.
Yesterday,
this non Muslim Canadian
white man came to my office, and he
wanted to know about the land about Islam.
Before he started to talk, he showed me
a portrait of his son, 21 years old,
young and healthy and handsome.
And he told me that his son jumped
over a a bridge a couple of weeks
ago and he killed himself.
And this is why he started to, to
look for God because he was an agnostic
or atheist, and he started to learn about
Islam and and different faith.
Use it to do something good. Help yourself,
your family, and people.
Pray. If Allah
gave you eyes, use it to look at
what Allah
has made permissible.
If he gave you ears, only listen to
what is permissible.
Otherwise, if you use it for Haram, you
will be destroying yourself.
And this is the meaning of the hadith
of the prophet
So a man came to one of the
scholars his name is Abu Hazib and he
said how do I thank Allah
for the blessing of the eyes?
So he said to be grateful for your
eyes, if you see something good,
remember it. If you see something bad or
evil, forget it.
And he said, how do I show gratitude
for my ears? He said, if you hear
something good, remember it and broadcast it. And
when you hear something evil or something bad,
just forget about it. Don't convey it to
other people.
So some people, they abuse
these blessings from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and
therefore,
they contribute to their own destruction
in this life and the next.
So those who use their help to bully
other people
and those who use their eyes to disobey
Allah
They use their tongues to backbite people and
cheat.
Those who use their ears to listen to
the Haram, so they use them in bad
things, so they incur sins from Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala. And in the next life, they
will be punished for
this. Some people use their eyes to envy
other people.
So
some people use their eyes to envy other
people and we heard of this backbone.
So this guy,
he was a loser.
Every time he gets into business, he runs
out of business. So his brother, his own
brother, flesh flesh and blood, was very successful
in business.
Successful businessman. So he wanted to envy his
brother and destroy his business.
So he hired this profession of India
to look at his brother and destroy him
and his business. So he told him, my
brother is coming from a journey with a
caravan of camels, loaded with all different goods
and stuff. So I want you to stop
by the gates of the city when my
brother comes.
In, and he will die and all his,
caravan will be destroyed.
So sure enough, they went to the entrance
of the city, the gates, and and he
saw his brother coming from a long distance,
like 3, 4 miles. So he said to
the professional, here is my brother. He's coming
from there. India. Start your machine.
He said, where? I can't see him. He
said, over there, man. 3, 4 miles by
Saint Albert. Just just look at him. He
looked at him. He couldn't see anything.
So the brother said that I can't see
him from here. You can't see him? So
the provisional emir said,
can you see him from here? I can't
see. So the guy looked his eyes
because he emptied him.
So the Quran talks about the big bang
theory, the Surah Al Anbiya, verse number 30.
Happened that this believer seen that the universe
and the earth or the earth and the
heavens would were one solid mass and was
put them asunder.
So this is the big bag, Surah Al
Anbiya, verse 30, and the winner is Mustafa
Al Ankur.
So I
where?
Wait.
There's a verse in Juz Tabak that you
can read,
from the front, like, forwards, and you can
read it backwards. It reads the same thing,
that verse in the Quran. If you know
the answer, you may leave before tomorrow as
the CIC, then and then you will become
