Navaid Aziz – If Your Dua Not Being Answered Heres What You Need To Do

			Just like Allah subhanaw taala has given us ways to increase our risk. There are things that we do
that actually become impediments between us in our risk, and from them are the sins that are
committed, particularly the sins pertaining to wealth. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he
tells us of a man that is traveling through the desert, he's going through hardship and calamity,
his hair is disheveled and he's in a very, very difficult state. And he raises his hands begging of
Allah. Yah Rob, Rob, but the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us that His clothes are from
haram. His drinking is from haram, his eating is from haram for under your stature. But then why
		

			would this man's dua be answered? And this teaches us a very valuable lesson, my dear brothers and
sisters, that the sins that we commit become impediments not only between us and our risk, like this
man, he has been delayed in his sustenance because of the sins that he committed, but also in terms
of our donors being answered also in terms of our drives being answered. So just like our Istighfar
removes those impediments, the sins that we commit become the impediment itself. So this is why it
is important that if we are struggling financially, let us look internally, that is there a sin
perhaps that we are committing, that we can give up? Are we making enough so far are we making dua
		

			are we giving sadaqa even if it is just a little bit every single day? And when we do that Allah
subhanaw taala blesses our risk for us. So you will be able to do more with $100 than someone else
is able to do with $100 just due to that Baraka factor
