Omar Suleiman – Ramadaan 2019 Allah Loves – Episode 11 – Beneficial People

			Santa Monica, welcome back to Allah loves. So this is a hadith that often comes up in fundraisers or
something in regards to charity and the importance of service. But I actually want you to analyze
this because it really opens the door for a lot of other heartbeats and a lot of other sayings about
who Allah loves and why Allah would love these people. We talked about a son very early on in this
series, and we talked about this concept of excellence and how allow rewards excellence and how
Allah loves excellence. And if you realize a lot defines excellence and son, even though it's
primarily a relationship between you and Allah, how you treat other people in accordance with the
		

			excellence you seek from Allah subhanaw taala. So if you shift to this now, this hadith the Prophet
peace be upon him says, in that have been nasty in Allah, the Most Beloved of people to Allah, and
Pharaoh homelessness are those that are most beneficial to the people, the most beloved of people to
Allah, are those that are most beneficial to people, not the best of people are those that are most
beneficial to people. No, the most beloved of people to Allah are those that are best to other
people. Why? Because you amplify the attributes of a lot to other people. You serve as a vehicle of
allows love to someone else's life. And that's the best way to be a part of earning a lot of love
		

			yourself. And so the Prophet sallallahu wasallam continues in this Hadith, he says, we're in the
habit, family in Allah, and verily the most beloved of actions to Allah so the Prophet peace be upon
them is going to show you how you are the most beneficial to the people, number one and two, three
to Allah calbee Africa surah that you enter a sense of inner joy into your brother's heart or into
your sister's heart, that you bring them inner peace, you bring them inner joy, you pick them up
when they're down. When they have low self esteem, you boost them up when they're sad and depressed
or anxious. You're a source of comfort and healing and tranquility to them. You bring them joy on
		

			the inside, you don't just smile at them, you give them reason to smile, as well and totally to
Allah Columbia, HCA surah so you're emotionally available to people, the same way that you seek
happiness from Allah, beyond all of the tangible things is the same way that you are the most
beneficial to other people. So you serve as a vehicle of a loss, comfort to people in the emotional
sense, in the same way that you seek that from Allah subhanho wa Taala. And then the Prophet slice
other mentions one areas and says, oh, texture on one caliber that you remove a hardship from him.
And if you think about it, what do you seek from Allah, you seek the removal of hardship, that's
		

			usually when people connect to a lot most? Well, what if Allah uses you to be the reason for someone
else's hardship being removed? Oh, tuck the man who, Dana, you know, or you remove a debt from that
person, you pay off that person's debt, you relieve them from a duck out to Emma who holds up or you
feed that person, a loaf of bread. So you either remove a burden from them in the financial sense,
or you provide for them. The point of this is very profound that the Prophet peace be upon him. When
he tells us about stories of people that entered into agenda for what were seemingly small actions,
they always involve service to someone else. So the woman that gave water to a thirsty dog, the man
		

			that removed something harmful from the road, you always find that it's those small deeds of
kindness, those small deeds of service that someone showed to someone else or something else, or
even in the case of the man who removed something harmful from the road to a community as a whole by
by just taking care of the environment. All of those things always connect back to an outstanding
reward. Why is that? The reason is that just as you are tasked with amplifying Allah's attributes to
people, so if you amplify love to people, then you will receive more love from Allah. If you amplify
mercy, you will receive more mercy from Allah. If you amplify kindness, you'll receive more kindness
		

			from Allah, Allah will never allow you to outdo Him and His attributes. And that's actually the most
important point to take from this hadith. Anytime you're showing kindness to someone, Allah will
never allow you to show more kindness to someone else than he will show to you. If you show
gratitude to someone else, then Allah will never allow you to be more thankful to someone else than
he will be to use of Hannah Montana. So all of these idiots, man, now your ham, or your ham, whoever
does not show mercy will not be shown mercy. Therefore, whoever shows mercy will be shown mercy how
momentous out of your hammock Memphis summer, show mercy to those on Earth, the one in the heavens
		

			will show mercy to you. And so the most beloved of people to Allah are those that are most
beneficial to the people. Because Allah sees you as a vehicle. Allah uses you as a as a part of
carrying out that relief in other people's lives and a lot so john will never allow you to outdo him
and those beautiful attributes and those beautiful things.
		

			He enabled you to do in the first place. So we ask a lot to make us beloved to him and to allow us
to serve Him by serving other people and to make us the channels of Rama Have mercy and generosity
and benevolence in other people's lives and that he used us for good all the time and not deprive us
of it ourselves a lot. I mean, see you all next time inshallah. So I want to go
