Disability is a test from Allah, a fitna from Allah. Could it have a

00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

source in our actions? Yes, it could be that we married too much

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10

in the same family. Of course, it couldn't be the chemicals in the

00:00:10 --> 00:00:13

world. It could be. And it could be not from anything like that. It

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

could just be a test from Allah. So we have to take the means of

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

mixing our gene pool because that's good. But we never say it's

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

a curse. How does a person React is different if you react with

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

depression and sadness, but you still do your duties in life as a

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

Muslim, that your sins are being washed away. If you react by

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

improving your religion, then this disabled child has been an

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

elevation for you. And if you're somebody that says, You know what

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

the heck with all this, I'm so miserable. And I'm just going to

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

sit, watch TV and eat chips all night long, and skip fish. And

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

that's how now you live every day like this. Then you now responded

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

to the tribulation by sins. When you respond to the tribulation by

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

committing sins, then it's a punishment.
