cold.

people complain about coming to the masjid. Hey, some of these people are walking their dogs in this

about that and the hook buzz Well, how people prioritize what is your priority? What keeps you up at
night? Is it to thinking about a sin you may have committed? And is Allah Subhana Allah pleased with
you?

00:02:12 --> 00:02:20

			Or is it balancing your books? Oh my god, how am I gonna pay that bill? What keeps you up? And what
gets you up in the morning?

00:02:22 --> 00:02:28

			Because at the end of the day, what you prioritize is most likely what you're going to wind up
worshipping. Willemstad, what are you gonna say?
