00:00:10 --> 00:00:14

Hacer or envy or jealousy

00:00:15 --> 00:00:19

is one of the deadliest diseases of the heart.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

It produces additional vices sometimes you have vice, which is

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

a vise in itself,

00:00:27 --> 00:00:31

but some vices, they lead to other vices and open doors to other

00:00:31 --> 00:00:36

vices. Drunkenness is a vise like that. It opens the doors to so

00:00:36 --> 00:00:40

many other vices. Similarly, with envy,

00:00:42 --> 00:00:46

it leads to backbiting it can lead to lying, spreading of rumors in

00:00:46 --> 00:00:52

particular negative talk about people hatred. Each one of these

00:00:52 --> 00:00:56

are independently fatal. And all of them are off fields of acid at

00:00:56 --> 00:00:57

times.

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

And it's also amongst the most destructive of emotions, envy,

00:01:02 --> 00:01:07

like anger and hatred among the most destructive of emotions,

00:01:08 --> 00:01:12

which a man may harbor towards a fellow human being.

00:01:13 --> 00:01:19

It causes a person to wish evil for others and to be happy when

00:01:19 --> 00:01:25

something goes wrong for them. In fact, lomandra Hockin Lachman the

00:01:25 --> 00:01:31

wise, of whom is surah is named in the Quran is reported to have said

00:01:31 --> 00:01:37

Thalassa Allah Motril has it there are three signs of a hypocrite. Al

00:01:37 --> 00:01:43

Heba fi realbig What you throw ofii Uloric Well, badger fame

analytic.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:49

They beg bite you in your absence. They flatter you in your presence,

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

and they delight in your misfortune.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:57

The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam warned us against this

00:01:57 --> 00:02:01

disease of the heart. He said iya can will hazard I warn you

00:02:01 --> 00:02:07

regarding envy, for in that hazard. coluna has an ad Kamata,

00:02:13 --> 00:02:17

Hassan is not only a bad deed, it also eats up your good deeds.

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

Sometimes you do something bad is bad, and is good you do? Has it

00:02:21 --> 00:02:27

eats up the good deeds you've done. And it destroys what you

00:02:27 --> 00:02:31

have worked for, in a positive way. So avoid envy. A skill set

00:02:31 --> 00:02:37

for surely envy devours good deeds, just as fire devours dry

00:02:37 --> 00:02:37

wood.

00:02:38 --> 00:02:43

He also advise, what are the hazards? Do you not be envious of

00:02:43 --> 00:02:47

one another? In fact, so destructive and so detrimental is

00:02:47 --> 00:02:52

the emotional disease of envy. That we are taught that Allah

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

subhanaw taala himself in the Quran to seek refuge and

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

protection in him from it.

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

Will mean surely has he didn't either I said Oh Allah, Allah

00:03:03 --> 00:03:08

teaches us I seek refuge in new Oh my lord, against the envy of the

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

envious person. Allah teaches us he's going to do our we make by

00:03:12 --> 00:03:16

the way, or the Sunnah dua Allah teaches us to ask him for

00:03:16 --> 00:03:21

protection against the envy of the Envy is a learning moment

00:03:22 --> 00:03:26

regarding this arises from an incident at the time of the

00:03:26 --> 00:03:30

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam and it's been Malika the ALLAH and

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

he reports. We were sitting in the company of the Messenger of Allah

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

in the mosque, and he said,

00:03:37 --> 00:03:41

your Blue Lake Milan radula, mineral Jana, this is documented

00:03:41 --> 00:03:46

and Muslim Ibni Mobarak said, they will enter a man from the people

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49

of Ghana. And the people sit down and say what was the person coming

00:03:49 --> 00:03:53

in? And lo and behold the soy and unsavoury one of the people from

00:03:53 --> 00:03:57

Medina coming in His beard was the shovel he was made will do in the

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

water of the widow was still running. And he carrying both

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02

these sandals in his left hand

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

seemed pretty ordinary. In fact,

00:04:06 --> 00:04:10

when the any prophecy the stress is the man will enter will be a

00:04:10 --> 00:04:14

man from paradise. And this was the man who entered when the

00:04:14 --> 00:04:17

Prophet salallahu Salam stood up, Abdullah, one of the companions

00:04:17 --> 00:04:22

with the Allah and followed the man. And then he told the man

00:04:23 --> 00:04:27

I'm in dispute with a family member. And I do not want to enter

00:04:27 --> 00:04:31

my home. Can I spend some time with you? And of course, you know

00:04:31 --> 00:04:34

a person can stay with someone if they agree for three days as a

00:04:34 --> 00:04:39

guest. And the man said, Yes, sir Abdullah said I stayed with a man

00:04:39 --> 00:04:44

for three days and three nights for them Euro yakun when the lady

00:04:44 --> 00:04:44

shaman

00:04:45 --> 00:04:49

who is at the Agra what a call of Allah philosophy of the Quran,

00:04:49 --> 00:04:54

Allah azza wa jal a cup Bharata yaku Michelotti fajr I never saw

00:04:54 --> 00:04:59

the man doing additional prayer or anything special whenever he went

00:04:59 --> 00:04:59

to bed

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

He would remember Allah, and he would rest until he woke up in the

00:05:03 --> 00:05:07

morning for Fudger. I notice you already spoke good words, though.

00:05:08 --> 00:05:12

But when the night had passed, nothing special, woke up and went

00:05:12 --> 00:05:17

for Fajr prayer. So after three days of Allah Oz, the man, I'm

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

gonna nominate you as the man.

00:05:20 --> 00:05:24

I have not been in dispute with my father or any family member. But I

00:05:24 --> 00:05:28

just wanted to observe because of what the Prophet said, The Prophet

00:05:28 --> 00:05:33

said three times with a man from the people of Paradise was coming

00:05:33 --> 00:05:37

to us, and then you came in, and I thought, I want to stay with you

00:05:37 --> 00:05:40

to observe what was so special about you that you also mentioned

00:05:40 --> 00:05:44

that you are among the people of paradise, so that I could emulate

00:05:44 --> 00:05:44

you.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:50

So you say for them Urraca Tamil cathedra Hamelin from Olivia Bella

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

has become our color Rasul Allah, Allah wa salam.

00:05:54 --> 00:05:59

Sorry, but I did not see anything special or extraordinary. So why

00:05:59 --> 00:06:04

did the Prophet speak so highly of you? The man said, ma Hua Illa

00:06:04 --> 00:06:05

Amara eight.

00:06:06 --> 00:06:07

I am as you saw me,

00:06:09 --> 00:06:14

later and Neela as you do for enough see, the liminal Muslimeen

00:06:14 --> 00:06:20

region, we actually had an awful lot. He said, I am as you see me

00:06:20 --> 00:06:23

nothing extra, extra ordinary. Only one thing.

00:06:24 --> 00:06:28

I do not have any malice in my heart, from my brother.

00:06:29 --> 00:06:34

And I do not envy anyone. If Allah grants him some good that I don't

00:06:34 --> 00:06:42

have. You see, envy is corrupting is distasteful and dangerous. But

00:06:42 --> 00:06:47

clearly our hearts of envy. It may pave the way to Paradise like this

00:06:47 --> 00:06:52

man. Akula call the harder was tougher Allah. wa salam aleikum wa

00:06:52 --> 00:06:52

rahmatullah.
