00:00:00--> 00:00:34

philanthropy Chewbacca, Allah says, so it should not impress you. It should not amaze you what I'm why they want their wealth. What are Oladipo nor their children, you should not be impressed by their wealth and their children. Wow, they can have this much, so much money. And wow, these many children. And these days, it's not the number of children, but the accomplishments of children that people are impressed by. So Allah says, Don't be impressed by their wealth and their children.

00:00:35--> 00:00:45

When is it that a person is impressed by the wealth of another? One? It's a lot. Right? And when is it that a person is impressed by the children of another? When?

00:00:48--> 00:01:34

Okay, so for example, when they're highly educated, when they get good grades, so for example, your mom tells you look, look at them, see, their daughter is your age, and you know, what school she's going to? And look at you. Right? So what does that mean that they're a person is impressed by the children of another? Why? Because of their education, their accomplishments, the fact that they're married, the fact that they're already engaged, right? And the fact that, you know, they're traveling here and there, whatever it may be, Allah says, Don't be impressed by the wealth and children of who have who home them. Who does then refer to the Muna 50. Because you see the

00:01:34--> 00:01:58

hypocrites, what they would do is that they would keep away from sacrificing in the cause of the religion. And as a result, they had more money, their children were healthier, because of a book called ultra low annual at the time of the book, what did he do? He brought, basically everything he had, or a mother who the one who brought half of what he had. So when Abu Bakr returned, what would he have

00:01:59--> 00:02:17

next to nothing? When her mother would return, what would he have? Half, right. But if there is a person who did not go, who did not spend a penny, his wealth is going to remain the same. And in fact, he went on a business trip, and as a result, he's got even more money.

00:02:19--> 00:02:32

So what happens when you see that other people are working on the weekends and extra job, and they're making money? In those five hours while you're studying the Quran? Sometimes you feel Oh,

00:02:34--> 00:02:41

too bad. I'm a little behind on this. Allah says no, for lethargy, become unwell, who want to own

00:02:42--> 00:03:10

their wealth and their children should not impress you. Because no matter how much money they've made, other people no matter how much money they've made, no matter how good their children may be, how long are they going to enjoy all of this? How long for very little, soon, this enjoyment is going to turn into misery? Because you see, these two things, Allah subhanaw taala has given us wealth and children. Why? So that we do X and

00:03:12--> 00:04:00

wealth so that we do something with it, we send something for ourselves in the Hereafter, and children so that we leave good Assad behind us good traces behind us. So even though we're gone, we're still getting good. We're still getting a job, because we trained our children to do good, right? But what happens is that these two, well, they are a source of earning a lot of Hessonite in the hereafter. They're also a great trial. In momentum, why Docomo Oladipo? Pfitzner their test? How are they a trial that a person wants to enjoy them. A person wants to benefit from them. But what happens is that this enjoyment, this benefit is very, very temporary, very temporary. Think about

00:04:00--> 00:04:37

it, a person has their children, enjoy them for a long time. And then eventually those children have to move away. Right? Or eventually a person has to leave this world or the children leave the world. Many things can happen right? So the enjoyment that a person can get from his children from his wealth is for how many years? Maybe 20, maybe 30, maybe 40 years. Allah did not give us children to enjoy. Allah did not give us money to enjoy. He gave us these blessings so that we use them in his way in worshiping in in attaining his pleasure.

00:04:38--> 00:04:59

Yes, it's very nice when you're sitting with your child and you're talking to them and they're talking to you and you know back and cute words. Right? It's very pleasing. But what is more important that we enjoy them benefit from them of course teach them good things, but worry about their aka worry about their future.

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

Do you worry about what they're going to do when they grow up? If our focus is just to duniya, its pleasures, its enjoyment, then the Tobia that we give to our children will not be complete and wholesome, than what is most important will be left out. I'm not saying that, Oh, don't let your children enjoy it all. And don't sit with your children and enjoy and just read Quran all the time. No, there has to be, obviously a balance. But what's the main goal? What are the goals that you've set for your children? What's the goal that you've set for the money that you're making? What do you want to do with it? Find you want to buy a house, but why? Fine, you want to have a car, but why?

00:05:40--> 00:06:28

Fine, you want to have a job, but why? What are you going to do with this money. If your focus is just enjoy and benefit from them, then they're going to cause you a lot of pain and misery. They're going to cause a lot of pain and misery. But if the focus is greater than with this money, I want something in the acapella to these children, I want more agile in the aphylla greater rewards in the Accra. So this is why goal yourself in the way of Allah and take your children along as well. On the same path, right. So when this will happen, then the children will be a source of enjoyment and pleasure, not just in this life, but also where in the hereafter in Jannah, what is going to happen?

00:06:28--> 00:06:54

Allah is going to join families together. Because you don't Gemini is of different origins, right? And each person will be a different donnager depending on his accomplishments. So let's say the mother is on one level, and the son is on a different level. And the father is on another level. They're separated in Jana, what will Allah subhanaw taala do he will join all of them together, not on the lower level, but in the higher one.

00:06:55--> 00:06:57

Allah subhanaw taala will join them.

00:06:58--> 00:07:49

And imagine, then the happiness and the enjoyment will be never ending, it will never come to win it. But if we don't give now we cannot expect later. We have to sacrifice something right now. In order to get reward in the hereafter in order to be with our loved ones in the hereafter. But there are people who don't do that. So what happens when you look at them? They're all their children are always with them. How nice how lucky they are. And they've got so much money also, Allah says flattered. ubica unwell to whom Allah Allah to whom? In NAMA, you read Allah Who, indeed Allah only once you or they won't be here, to punish them through it. He only wants to punish these people

00:07:49--> 00:07:53

through it through what? Through their wealth and their children.

00:07:54--> 00:08:10

What does that mean? That in this life, their wealth will be a source of misery for them in this life, their children will be a source of pain for them. And have we heard stories, many stories of how a person because of the money that he has his life is difficult.

00:08:12--> 00:08:26

How that he's always worried about his money about his business, and therefore the stress levels are really high. Right. And now he's got heart disease. And now he's got this issue and that issue,

00:08:27--> 00:08:37

children also what happens, everything's fine, they've got all the money, they've got all the luxury, but son doesn't want to go to school. The daughter doesn't want to study

00:08:38--> 00:08:58

doesn't want to study at all. Somebody was telling me that they know a person who told their daughter, you go to any school, you go to any university, I'll pay your entire fees. 100% you won't ever have to take a loan. You won't ever have to pay anything back to me, but please just go to school.

00:08:59--> 00:09:42

Just go to school, but the daughter, she said okay, so she went to this ordinary school somewhere here. And she went there and dropped out after a year. And now she's just having fun with her boyfriend. And this is an awesome family. And the father is just so miserable, so unhappy all the time because he's willing to pay hundreds and 1000s of dollars, just so that his daughter will go to school, but the daughter has no interest, no interest. Now what's happening? The money is a source of pain, because I have it but I can't do much with it. And the child is a source of pain also. Every single day. You know what many of you are not parents but inshallah one when you will become

00:09:43--> 00:09:44

mothers, you will know

00:09:45--> 00:09:59

that what hurts you like nothing else is the pain you get from your children from their disobedience, or from they're not doing well. From they're falling behind in any way.

00:10:00--> 00:10:09

If it hurts you a lot like nothing else does. Your own failures don't hurt you as much as your children's failures do.

00:10:10--> 00:10:56

What happens? You know, a woman has, you know, her first child, and then she's concerned, when is he going to start setting up? He's already three months, he's already four months, since he's still not sitting up. And then they research and ask the doctor and so many people, it's normal. It's okay. Right? But why is my child not sitting up already? Why isn't my child talking already? Why isn't my child walking already. And then as they grow older, the worries the only increase, the only increase? So what happens? Those whose goal is not the hereafter who keep their wealth and the children with them all the time don't want to sacrifice even a little bit. In the mail you read

00:10:56--> 00:11:45

Allahu to your neighbor, whom behalf Phil higher to dunya in the life of this world, what does help her unzoom? Does it help her it departs, they help off the hook. Zap is when someone passes away, meaning dies. But it's also used for when something leaves with difficulty and sadness, difficulty and sadness, meaning to go away defeated. You know, when you go somewhere to do something. Let's say you go to the mall to buy something, you know, specific, and you've been waiting for that trip, and you go there you go store to store to store and you don't find it, how do you go home defeated? Right? You feel like that whole time that you spent in the mall was just a waste. Right? And you

00:11:45--> 00:12:30

feel so defeated, that you don't want to go, you don't want to leave them all. You think that maybe you'll find it somewhere in some store. So you keep delaying keep delaying. This is the hook to go away defeated to go away unhappy with sadness with difficulty. So Allah Who wants that What does help unfulfilled whom their souls depart from this world? What homecare funeral while they're still disbelievers, while they're disbelievers, meaning they will continue to remain in the state, keeping their money keeping their children with them, not borrowing from them, for the sake of Allah even for a few moments. So what happens they live this life, but the suffer because of their money, they

00:12:30--> 00:13:13

suffer because of their children, and they die in the state of greed, ingratitude way actually foreigner and this were Billahi by Allah in the home that indeed they live in come surely from you. They keep coming back to you. And again and again. They try to assure you that they're with you. They're sincere to you. And yeah, California. Yeah, California is from health, health is to swear an oath. So they keep saying by Allah, we believe you are the Prophet of Allah, by Allah, you are upon the Hulk by Allah. Doesn't the prophets of lawlessness already know that? Don't know, Muslims already know that? Doesn't Allah already know that? Why do they have to swear again and again, to

00:13:13--> 00:13:22

show that they are with you in the homeland income? And typically what happens? Typically, what happens? Who is it that needs to swear an oath again, and again?

00:13:23--> 00:13:47

Who, those who lie a lot, so they're not believed? Right? So in order to make other people believe them, they come and they try to assure them once they start talking a lot. You see, actions speak louder than words, don't they? But when a person is lacking in his actions, he tries to make up how to words.

00:13:48--> 00:13:54

And so he starts talking a lot. And he keeps talking again, and again. And again.

00:13:55--> 00:13:59

Like, for example, if you had a conversation with someone, and it didn't go, well,

00:14:00--> 00:14:16

it didn't go well. And because of the way you spoke over the things that you said, and then later on, it's bothering you, or you feel that this person is upset with you. So then what do you do you go once, and you say, I have you in mind?

00:14:17--> 00:14:41

Right? And I hope you don't feel offended. But this is the reason why I said this and this, and still you're not satisfied. So again, you go, and you try to assure them through words, that you're still good with them. But the thing is that those nasty words you said to them, now cannot be washed away by any gift by any gesture, because you've heard them

00:14:43--> 00:14:59

isn't it's all you've heard them. So usually phone Billahi in the home Lamine calm, they try to assure you over and over again that they're with you while my women come, but they're not actually with you. While I can no but in

00:15:00--> 00:15:12

They're common. There are people here for whom? who are afraid. They are a people who are afraid. And this is why they keep coming back to you, trying to assure you that they're with you. You have recordings from federal cough, what does it mean for DACA?

00:15:13--> 00:15:18

To separate? What if follow up on Abaco, Baja when we separated the sea for you.

00:15:19--> 00:15:31

And over here, it's giving the meaning of fear. Because when a person is afraid of something, when a person is afraid of someone, what does he do? Does he stay with the one whom he's afraid of?

00:15:33--> 00:15:48

What do you do, then? You separate yourself instantly. Right? You move away. It's like a reflex action. Right? That you see someone coming, and instantly you start moving back, you see something coming and instantly you jump.

00:15:49--> 00:16:07

There's a spider on the wall, you hear that? There's a spider on the wall. And the wall is like 10 feet away from me, which really, there is a mouse in this masjid, if you find out. You don't even know where the mouse is. You didn't see it. You didn't hear it. But suddenly what's going to happen? You're going to start,

00:16:08--> 00:16:09

you know what you're going to do.

00:16:10--> 00:16:51

Right? Just because somebody screamed mouse, what's going to happen to the rest of the people get up and run away? Stampede. Right. So this is what Farakka is. So when I came down Conway Afrikan, there are people who are afraid of you. This is why they keep avoiding you. They don't want to face you, because they're afraid you're going to talk to them and then their true intentions are going to be exposed. So what do they do? They just try to come and assure you with their words. And we're with you, we love you. We support you. You're doing an awesome job, you're doing something really good. Pray for us. Many people do that. They will just go to others and say positive words you know of

00:16:51--> 00:17:15

support. Would you like do something? Pray for us? Remember me in your prayers, but that's not sufficient. If you really believe in this cause then go ahead and do it. Do it as well. Why are you keeping away from it? What I can no call me up for a call there are people who are afraid. They don't want to be exposed. This is why they just come and talk to you.

00:17:16--> 00:18:06

Low Energy doing it how afraid are they that if only they could find manager earn a refuge from lamb Jeem Hamza legend? What is logic? Shelter, Samantha a place of shelter. So if they could only find a place where they could take shelter, like a fort or an island, Omaha Muhannad floor enough Mahara from Lane well row, or is a cave. So we've all got caves, right? If they could find any places of shelter, or caves where they could go in and hide almost dunklen with the hunt from dal Harlem the hole to enter some mythical place of entry meaning a place where they could just enter into and hide in there. If they could find anything like that low one low lady surely they would turn to it

00:18:06--> 00:18:45

meaning they would go for it well homey edge of a home while they would run hastily heedlessly. Eh, Mohandas from Jean meme has. And John is basically when a horse runs uncontrollably, uncontrolled uncontrollably. So in other words, they would run in uncontrollable haste without consideration. Have you ever seen children, you know, they see something that they like and they just run for it? They don't see that there's water on the floor. Or that there's a table we know with a pointy edge and they could hit themselves against you or you're standing in the way they just completely ignore everything and everyone around them and just run.

00:18:46--> 00:18:55

What does that show? Greed. They just want it so badly. And it also shows that they're trying to run away from something they're afraid.

00:18:56--> 00:19:54

So low you're doing a merger an Omaha rotten. Oh, muda Hola. Hola. One low inaniwa homea. Juma Hoon. So what is it that we learned about NIFA from these verses, that the person who has hypocrisy in his heart, he knows that he's doing something wrong? Right? Like for example, he knows he has a back button. someone he knows that he feels jealousy for someone he knows that he feels hatred towards someone, but on the outward pretense. And what is that pretense? Yeah, yeah, you look so good. You're right. You look amazing. Thank you so much, just like a fail on right, all these words on the surface to please people, but at the same time, avoid them. He avoids them. I don't want to see

00:19:54--> 00:19:59

them. I don't want to talk to them. I don't want to be around them. Why? Because he's afraid that

00:20:00--> 00:20:20

will be exposed, the reality will be exposed. So how much does he try to avoid people so much that if only you could find a wash away could lock himself in? Right? Or a room where you could go and hide? Who needs to go and hide? The one who knows he's doing something wrong. The one who's guilty

00:20:21--> 00:20:33

because if you know you're not doing something wrong, then you have the confidence to face reality. Then you say, Yes, I made a mistake, and I'm sorry about that. Hopefully, I will not do this again. You admit it, you admit your weakness and you move on from it?

00:20:34--> 00:20:46

Right? But the person doesn't want to admit it. And the person who's guilty inside his heart is approaching him. Then he hides from others. He doesn't want to face them.

00:20:48--> 00:20:52

Let's listen to the recitation then we'll continue verla tour Andre Belka.

00:20:58--> 00:21:08

In AUD long Yuan lieben be higher dunya

00:21:11--> 00:21:12

more home curfew

00:21:15--> 00:21:17

we're gonna be

00:21:25--> 00:21:30

more lucky than me

00:21:33--> 00:21:34

know we

00:21:36--> 00:21:40

move on to the hall.

00:21:47--> 00:21:54

So what is that makes a person cowardly, that he doesn't want to meet others doesn't want to talk to them.

00:21:56--> 00:21:58

Avoiding phone calls.

00:21:59--> 00:22:06

What is it that makes a person cowardly? Doesn't want to take that phone call doesn't want to talk to them? Why? Avoiding others? What's the reason?

00:22:08--> 00:22:09

Yes.

00:22:10--> 00:22:12

Guilt? Yes.

00:22:13--> 00:22:17

When he knows that he's wrong. When your heart is telling you I've done something wrong.

00:22:18--> 00:22:21

insincerity makes a person cowardly.

00:22:23--> 00:22:42

It takes the confidence of a person away from him when he's insincere, then he doesn't have the confidence to be with others. Talk to them, interact with them. But when he's sincere in his heart, then even if there's a mistake, he can come in, face it.

00:22:43--> 00:22:46

So the sincerity is very, very important.

00:22:48--> 00:23:26

Woman home and from them man who yell Mizuka he criticizes you. fee in the matter, all of a sudden, all the charities meaning among such people are those who will criticize the Prophet sallallahu wasallam with respect to the distribution of sada cots, Pl mizukage letters, lamb memes a lambs and lambs is to speak ill of someone right to slander them, but it is basically to speak, Ill have someone in front of them. Why to uncover a real or imaginary fault in them?

00:23:27--> 00:23:37

Why in order to uncover a real or imaginary fault in them. So for example, in front of everybody, if someone says to another,

00:23:38--> 00:23:40

You're so selfish.

00:23:41--> 00:24:18

Now what's happening by the statement, You're so selfish? What's going to happen? Their fault is going to be uncovered. Now, is it a real fault? Or is it imaginary could be either way? Because sometimes what happens is that people try to attack others in public like this in order to put pressure on them so that they can get whatever they want out of them. So for instance, what happened once that the prophets Allah loves them, he distributed some wealth amongst the people. And this one man he got up and he said, Oh, Prophet, fear Allah.

00:24:19--> 00:24:43

He's got up and he said, Oh, Mohamed, or Oh, Prophet, to the lovely the salam fear Allah. What was the point of saying that? That you're not being fair? So have fear of God, so that you can distribute this with justice between the people. Now was this true? Was the prevalence of autism not being fair?

00:24:45--> 00:24:51

It's not possible, who would have more fear of Allah? Then Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam

00:24:52--> 00:24:59

who, who would be more fair than him, the one to Allah in

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

He trusted revelation two, if he was not fair, if he was not honest, then who would be fair and honest, he was the fairest of people, the most honest of them, the most fearful of them when it comes to fear of Allah. But this man he said this to the profits or loss and and why, so that the profits or losses and would feel bad, and he would give him more

00:25:27--> 00:26:15

you understand. So many times it happens that people try to humiliate others in public, to make them feel bad to put that social pressure on them. And as a result, they change their mind or they give something so women who may have Mizuka fists, solder cards, Allah describes them for in order to, then if they're given men half from it, meaning from this other card Roble they're very happy. If they're given from it, they will never speak a word against you. What in lumea Tolmin here, and if they're not given anything from it, ie there then home they Yes, huddled they become angry and upset. Yes, hello, I'm seeing Hoposa hope to be upset to be angry. So basically, the problem is that

00:26:15--> 00:26:46

they don't care about others. They don't care about what others are getting, what they're not getting, they're concerned about who themselves, they're happy only if they are given something. And if they're not given importance, then they get very, very upset. So here we need to check ourselves, are we happy and cooperative when we are given importance? And if there are times when we are not given importance, then how cooperative are we?

00:26:47--> 00:27:01

Are we happy only when somebody gives us a gift or somebody praises us? Only then we will do something. And if people don't give us the importance that we think we deserve to then we will not do anything. And instead we will

00:27:02--> 00:27:23

you know attack them? What a numb your auto minha either home yes cartoon. What is the problem? The problem is much deeper. It's got to do with the intentions. If the intention is sincere, if a person is doing something for the sake of Allah, then who does he expect results reward from Allah, then his goal is what Jana, nothing less than Jana.

00:27:24--> 00:28:05

Right? Then it doesn't matter if people are supportive, if people are respectful, if people are giving importance, that doesn't make a difference, a person will keep doing his work. Because he wants reward from Allah subhanaw taala. But if the intention is corrupt, that he's doing something, but he also expects that people should respect him, that people should give him importance, that what happens as soon as that importance, or that respect, does not meet your expectations, then what happens to the work, decline, a sudden decline, either homies hop on, then they become very upset, and they become angry. I might have been a little upset that some property was given to the Prophet

00:28:05--> 00:28:42

sallallahu Sallam and he gave it to some people. And he withheld it from some others, meaning he gave it to someone he didn't give it to some others. And then he came to know that the people were unhappy, they were dissatisfied, who was dissatisfied, those who were not given. So the prophets of Allah set him said, I give to one man, and do not give another and the one to whom I do not give. The one to whom I do not give is dear to me, than the one to whom I give.

00:28:44--> 00:29:00

I give to some people, because of the impatience and discontent present in their hearts and leave others because of the content and goodness Allah has bestowed on them. And one of them is Ahmed bin Talib.

00:29:02--> 00:29:48

If you think about it, when somebody is in really good terms with you, really good terms with you, then let's say you want them together. You are you know, serving some people or you are giving something to others. Then what happens if the food is less than you don't give it to your friend? And you say, You know what, we'll give it to the guests. Will she mind? Never, she'll never mind. Because is the food important to her? Or is the friendship important to her? The friendship is important. And because of that friendship, she will even sacrifice isn't at all, she will even sacrifice. But if that sacrifice is not there, and she says, You know, I went to my friend's house

00:29:48--> 00:29:59

just wasn't my best friend. And the food was not enough and she served everybody and then she's like, there's not enough so please, we'll do something later. Can you imagine she humiliated me like that?

00:30:00--> 00:30:07

This is what she had to offer me no food after all that work. What does that show that this friend is not a friend?

00:30:08--> 00:30:20

Friend? A true friend sacrifices, right? A true friend doesn't expect much in return, because they're with you. They're with you and everything that you do.

00:30:21--> 00:30:30

Mothers, what do they do? Typically, they have food on their plate. And the daughter says, I want that piece of meat. And what will the mother do? Sure.

00:30:31--> 00:30:36

She'll give it immediately. She wants I know it's mine. Go get your own.

00:30:37--> 00:31:27

She'll let her say that. All right. So who is it that is sincere to Allah, the One who is happy with whatever Allah and His Messenger give them? What Allah Muto minha EDA home, yes hotton This is a characteristic of who those who are insincere wallow under whom Allah says And if indeed they Rabu they were happy man with that which I tell them Allah, Allah gave them what are Sulu and His Messenger, if they were happy with that which Allah and His Messenger gave them, even if it was very little, what call you and they had said, husband, Allah, Allah is sufficient for us, say you, Dina. Soon he will give us who Allahu Allah admin fugly from His bounty, what a sunnah who and His

00:31:27--> 00:31:50

messenger, Allah and His Messenger will give us more something in the future, in that Illa Allah Hiiragi Boon indeed we it Allah to Allah Who are all the one ones who turn meaning we are hopeful of who Allah subhanaw taala that he will give us Rockabye is basically inclination. So we inclined to Allah, we are hopeful from him.

00:31:51--> 00:32:41

So even if it was very little that they got had they been happy with it, and hopeful and grateful, then that would have been much, much better for them, it would have been much better for them, much better for them than what then complaining at this time, then being ungrateful at this time, then criticizing the Prophet sallallahu sallam. At this time, what happens is that when you do anything to help others do work for the religion of Allah, there's always some sacrifices that you have to make. And sometimes you have to spend your money also. And because of that reason, we start expecting something in return, that I am doing this. So I should be given this much at least. And

00:32:41--> 00:32:46

then you find out somebody says that, oh, you're getting paid only this much money.

00:32:47--> 00:32:54

Only this one, you should be asking for more. Look, I work only these many hours, and I make much more than you, you're wasting your time.

00:32:57--> 00:33:41

So what happens is that our expectations, they increase, and we start expecting that we should get more from the work that we are doing. Either it has more grades, more numbers, right? Or more praise, or more money, or more promotions, whatever it may be, we start expecting more because we think that we're doing a favor in the first place. When we're coming for the sake of Allah, when we're coming for the religion of Allah. We think we're doing a favor. And because of that, we start expecting a lot. Our work is only this much. And our expectations are this much. Literally, when we go to school, do we ever expect that we will show up late we will leave early, we will not do the

00:33:41--> 00:34:06

tests on time. And then at the end of the year, the professor should give us a perfect grid. Do we ever expect that? Never. But why is it that when we go to study the dean, we say oh, the test was too difficult. And you know what marks don't really mean much anyway. Our standards change completely. Right? We give a little in the way of Allah and we expect a lot in return a lot in return.

00:34:08--> 00:34:21

What do we learn over here, that whatever little benefit a person receives from Allah, from his messenger from the Dean, he should be happy with it, even if it is very, very little.

00:34:22--> 00:34:31

Because receiving something from Allah from His Messenger, from the Dean, that in itself is an honor.

00:34:32--> 00:34:57

That in itself is an honor. And whatever it is, even if it's very little, it will have a lot of blessing in it. The little will be enough that less will become more it will be sufficient. But if a person is greedy, then more will be less it will never be enough for him. If a person wants this world, then he can never ever be satisfied, no matter how much he accumulates.

00:34:59--> 00:34:59

So what

00:35:00--> 00:35:47

When we do, when we feel that we deserve more, but we're not really getting all of that, what should we say? What should our reaction be? Husband, Allah, Allah is enough for us, Allah is sufficient for us, husband, Allah, and generally also at the time of any financial constraint, instead of complaining instead of becoming angry with Allah, or instead of becoming angry with people, what should our reaction be? Allah is sufficient for us. Because what happens is that whatever risk is written for us, whatever it is, because we're gonna, it's definitely going to come to us through one way or another, through one way or another, it's definitely going to come. So if you're right,

00:35:47--> 00:35:54

somebody is not giving it to you, let's say there's a woman, her husband doesn't give her $1 to spend, not even $1.

00:35:55--> 00:36:05

And this is a case of many women, unfortunately, they expect that their husbands should give them at least some money to spend freely from. But what happens does Ben doesn't give even a spare dollar.

00:36:06--> 00:36:21

So at that time, you know, there's a lot of anger being built up in the heart against you, against the husband, against the mother in law against his sisters, against the whole family, against the children against the whole world, against the government against anybody,

00:36:22--> 00:37:15

anybody, right? What is necessary at this time a person says husband, Allah. Allah is my provider, my husband is not he is my provider. He is the one who has fed me till today, and he will feed me in the future. If this man withholds money from me, so what Allahumma la manera, Lima Archuleta, walla morphia Lima Monarto. And be hopeful in that in Allah He Rali born, we turn to Allah, we hope from him, we expect from him that he will give us always look back, and hamdulillah Allah gave you food he fulfilled your needs in the past. So why wouldn't here fulfill your needs in the future? And you know, these trials, these situations are basically a test for us. That do we expect from people or

00:37:15--> 00:37:17

do we expect from Allah?

00:37:18--> 00:37:43

Do we think that our spouses, our parents, our relatives, they are our providers, or Allah is our provider who is our provider? It's these situations that will show right our reactions will show what we say at that time, what we feel at that time. So over here, Allah says that if they had said at that time, that

00:37:44--> 00:38:08

Allah is enough for us, if they were first of all happy with whatever came their way. And secondly, they said husband Allah, so you Dean Allah whom in fugly WA, Sulu, in that it, Allahu La the boon that would have been much, much better for them? How would it be better for them? How would it be better? Because first of all, when a person is hopeful of Allah,

00:38:09--> 00:38:12

that Allah subhanaw taala also doesn't disappoint him.

00:38:13--> 00:38:35

He doesn't disappoint him. What does Allah say that I am as my servant thinks, if meaning of a person has positive hope that Allah will not disappoint him. And if a person thinks negatively about only gets angry with Allah, then he will also get anger. Whoever is happy for him is pleasure. And whoever is angry for him is anger.

00:38:36--> 00:38:45

It's all about how we react. In a hadith we learn that on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala will have some people come out of hellfire.

00:38:46--> 00:38:50

And then Allah will say, take them back to hellfire.

00:38:51--> 00:39:00

One of those men will look back and see, well, Allah, I thought that if you're taking me out of hellfire, you won't send me back into it.

00:39:01--> 00:39:11

I was hopeful that you're taking me out of hellfire, and you won't send me back into it. Allah subhanaw taala will say, so we will not send you back in hellfire.

00:39:13--> 00:39:18

Allah will send them to Jana. Why? Because of his hope.

00:39:19--> 00:39:24

Because of his positive thinking about Allah Subhana Allah

00:39:25--> 00:39:30

that if Allah has brought me here, I'm hoping that Allah will make my condition better.

00:39:32--> 00:40:00

In Elahi, Ravi born there, we just keep looking at the money and our sufferings, and we don't look at the treasures that Allah subhanaw taala has, I mean, look at the snow. Doesn't that tell us about endless treasures that Allah subhanaw taala has, I mean it doesn't stop just keeps coming and coming and coming. This morning when we open the shutters we're like, what? Now? This just shows to us that

00:40:00--> 00:40:24

There is no limit to Allah's Hawza in he can give some he consents know even when spring has officially started right? Allah subhanaw taala can create the unthinkable what you cannot even imagine Allah subhanaw taala can give you but when when you turn to him and when you expect from him when you hope from him and not others

00:40:25--> 00:40:32

and all starts with thinking positively about Allah subhanaw taala that's the end of the recitation well

00:40:34--> 00:40:40

me me Luca for the for the differ in mean
