00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			So risk is not only money.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			This could be your wife or your husband,
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			or your children.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			Money,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			car, house, job, education,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			the good looks, anything you have and enjoy
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			in this life is part of your business.
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:14
			Distributed him his riz among his creation in
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			an even way.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			So he has given us, like, husbands and
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:21
			wives and children and jobs and education and
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:21
			everything.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			And sometimes, Allah
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:24
			will keep
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			some part of the risk missing.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			Like, for example, if you are married, you
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:32
			have a good job, good education, good payment,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			no kids. So you will say, oh, Allah,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			give me kids.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			Then if you are
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:40
			if you are married, you have a wife,
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			and maybe you don't have a job.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			If you have a job, good education,
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			good payment,
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			no wife. So something is missing, so we
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:52
			always turn to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			say, oh Allah give me this, oh Allah
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			give me this. Because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			He created us,
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:59
			He knows us more than we know ourselves.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			If we have our everything in our hands,
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			we always turn our backs to Allah subhanahu
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			wa ta'ala.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			Most people, they're rebir by Allah,
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			and they turn back to Him if they
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:10
			go to the hospital for a surgery,
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			if they go to jail,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			if they have an accident. Now they turn
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:16
			to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			Allah says it in the Qur'an. When I
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			show all my favorites
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			on human beings,
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:31
			they turn their backs to me. But if
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			something bad happens to them, they always come
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			back to me with lengthy supplications
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			and dua. So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala knows.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			So the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam explained
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			this in a beautiful hadith in Sayyid Al
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:34
			Jannah,
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:36
			and he says,
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:39
			anything that brings you closer to Jannah, I
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:42
			ordered you to do. And anything that brings
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			you closer to the hellfire, I warned you
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:45
			against.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:49
			Jibreel, a s salam, revealed to me that
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:52
			no one will ever die before they take
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			the risk in complete.
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:56
			Nothing is missing from your risk as when
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			you die, then you took all your risk.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			You will leave nothing behind.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			Then if you want to get the risk
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, then ask for
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:06
			it
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			in a good way and don't get the
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			risk of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in a
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:13
			crooked way. Don't steal it because it's coming
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:14
			to you.
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			You're sitting somewhere, you're sleeping somewhere they steal
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			your keys and they take your car and
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			all that stuff.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			It's not good in the eyes of Allah
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:52
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. If it's not good some
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55
			people they go, believe me. Some people buy
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			tickets,
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			get a visa, and they go to the
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			Haram in Mecca to steal. They don't go
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:03
			for Hajar Oma, they go to steal. Can
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:03
			you imagine?
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			You go to the house of Allah, not
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:07
			any house.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:10
			The big one, the number one to steal
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala from house. Why
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			what do you say about this?
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			Imam Ali, radiAllahu anhu. He went to the
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			Masjid with his servant to pray.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			So he lift his horse outside with a
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:50
			nice saddle,
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:51
			sash.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:53
			So as he was entering the Masjid, he
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			saw a man sitting in front of the
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:57
			Masjid. So the man said, you know what?
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			I will keep an eye on the horse.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			Go pray and come back.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03
			So Imam Ali and his servant, they're praying,
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			and they came back. And Imam Ali was
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			thinking, okay. This is a good guy. I'm
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:10
			gonna give him to, Dirham Ali $20 for
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			his service, for keeping an eye on my
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			horse and my saddle and everything. He came
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:14
			out.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18
			The horse was there, the saddle of the
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			horse was gone,
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			and the man nowhere to be found. He
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			stole the saddle and he ran away.
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:28
			Imam Ali sent his servant to buy a
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			saddle for the horse. So he went to
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			the market and sure enough he found a
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			man standing in the market, and he is
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			the only one selling a saddle for $20.
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			So he gave him the $20, he took
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			his saddle back. So Allah was sending him
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			the $20 in halal way, and he took
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:45
			it in halal way, and he took the
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:46
			sin.
