Sulaiman Moola – Is There Hope For A Drug Addict

			How to deal with
		

			addiction?
		

			Is there any hope for an addict? Be
		

			it drugs,
		

			alcohol,
		

			or even *. Is there hope for an
		

			addict? Of course, there's hope. As long as
		

			you breathe in, there's hope.
		

			There's hope for you to repent quickly. Quickly,
		

			here many scholars say, means that as long
		

			as you're living and you change, there is
		

			hope. Now when we say to change, you
		

			have to
		

			make adjustments in your life. So when when
		

			a youngster, for example, comes out of the,
		

			rehab, I say to him, you have to
		

			give up all your friend circle. No. I
		

			cannot do that. No. Then you don't wanna
		

			change.
		

			Then Then you don't wanna
		

			change.
		

			If you want to change, then you have
		

			to be ready to give up that network.
		

			You have to get get give up that
		

			phone. Because on that phone, there's that context,
		

			there's those messages, there's that back and forth
		

			thing. You have a * addiction, your phone
		

			needs to become public property.
		

			You need to go and do your work
		

			in the kitchen. You need to do it
		

			in in the room where anyone and everyone
		

			has access. You can't have a private code
		

			to it. Now if you choose to continue
		

			to give safety and amnesty
		

			and to to to give shelter and and
		

			cover your wrong, then obviously the whispers will
		

			will continue and you will continue doing the
		

			wrong. So Allah says regarding the, they didn't
		

			participate in Tabuk. And they said, oh, we
		

			really wanted to. We so desperately wanted to.
		

			Allah said,
		

			If they wanted to participate,
		

			there would have been active planning to participate.
		

			The scholars say it means
		

			if you claim something,
		

			but you don't take steps towards it, that
		

			means your claim is fake.
		

			So I want to change. I want to
		

			give up addiction. Of course, you can give
		

			up. We just spoke about it, how how
		

			people have done it in their life. But
		

			then you need to break away from that
		

			friend. You need to give up that device
		

			totally. You need to deactivate your access to
		

			that so that your access to Allah can
		

			be opened up, and then you would see
		

			that happening.
