00:00:00 --> 00:00:53
			Now Jihad fighting in the way of Allah requires wealth any of course if you're going to go meet an
enemy you need provisions you need weaponry you need, you know arms, etc. So Allah subhanaw taala
encourages his slaves to spend in his way. So last month it says men the lady, you crave Allah
Corbin Hasina, who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan for Yubari for hula who are barf and
cathedra so he may multiply it for him many times over will Allahu Yakubu way up so to what era he
told your own and it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance and to Him you will be returned.
Allah subhanaw taala is asking us a question, man, the lady who is it? That would your creed Allah
		
00:00:53 --> 00:01:51
			Quran Hasina, who would lend a goodly loan to Hola, Naw man who meaning who is that person that is
that they you see this word that that means that okay, and you have you know the word valleca, for
example, or Heather, okay, that means that so men there who is that person who is a levy, the one
who Ukri Lula, who will lend alone to Allah, who is going to do this, who is going to be that
person, the word Ukri, Lu, and Corbin both of these words are from the root letters off robot, okay.
And Hassan from the root letters has he known, has a means good, so who is going to be that person
who will give a loan to Allah? Now, a question like this is asked, when there is a shortage of those
		
00:01:51 --> 00:02:40
			of the people who are doing that action. Like for example, Allah Subhana Allah says, Men, the lady
yesh, Pharaoh in the WHO Ellerbee Anthony, who is the one who will be the one who will intercede
before Allah without his permission, meaning who can no one can hardly anyone, right? Hardly anyone.
So men, the lady you could have Allah called and Hasina a question like this is asked when there is
a shortage when there is no one or very few people doing that action. And you want to encourage
people to do that action. So for example, you know, you ask her children, who is going to help me
who is going to be the one to assist me. So again, you see be of those few who lend alone to Allah.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:03:32
			Now the question is that who will give a loan to Allah, the word card means other to cut something.
The word McLeod from the same root is used for scissors because scissors are used for cutting right
and alone is called a cult. Because it is a portion of one's wealth that a person cuts off right
when he gives it to someone else. Okay, so who is the person who will lend alone to Allah alone to
Allah? Any alone to Allah? Yes, Allah subhanaw taala isn't alone. Okay? This is similar to how in
Hadith we learn that Allah's Panthera will ask a person on the day of judgment that all son of Adam,
I was ill, and you did not visit me, or son of Adam, I was hungry, and you did not feed me. I was
		
00:03:32 --> 00:04:18
			thirsty, you do not give me to drink? And the person will say, Yeah, Rob, You are the Lord of the
Worlds. How could you be ill? And how can I visit you? How could you be hungry and how could I feed
you? And Allah subhanaw taala will say that my slave was ill. And if you had gone to visit him, you
would have found me, my slave was hungry. And if you had fed him, you would have found me, right, my
slave was thirsty. If you had given him to drink, you would have found me. So yes, Allah subhanaw
taala is rich, he is a loony, right he is the Malik the Malik. Everything is in his hand. He is Lu
fogal. As we learned, right, we learned in Hadith His hands are full Allah subhanaw taala is not in
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:59
			need of borrowing. But what is meant is that lend alone to Allah meaning spend in the way of Allah
spend in the Cause of Allah. So the question man validly you could have Allah cordon Hasina means
that who will spend in the way of Allah? But why is it called the loan spending in the way of Allah?
Why is that called a loan? In fact, feasable Allah, because think about it, when someone asks you,
if they can borrow something of yours, you feel shy to say no, especially if that someone is very
important. And if that someone has done you many favors my word
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:49
			example if your own mother asks you, can I borrow your car? Or can I borrow $100? Someone whom you
really admire? If they ask you, if they can borrow something, you say, Why are you asking me if you
can borrow? You don't even have to ask me just take it. Right? And you don't have to borrow. Just
take it, it's yours. You don't even need my permission. You feel shy that they're even asking to
borrow, right? So then your heart just opens up, and you have no hesitation in giving. All right,
you give happily. So Allah subhanaw taala is asking us this way, so that we give happily in the
Cause of Allah. And we feel shy of refusing that you know, we cannot say no over here, right? And
		
00:05:49 --> 00:06:38
			it's called alone. In fact, feasable Allah is called alone for our encouragement and also for our
reassurance. Okay, because this shows us that when you give something in the way of Allah, you are
not giving it away. You're not losing it forever. It's not a loss. Rather it is a loan, you are
lending it to Allah, He is borrowing it from you, meaning he will return it to you. Right? The
return is guaranteed. So what you give to Allah he's only borrowing it from you meaning he will give
it back to you. But here it is said for you Laurie for hula hula agora fan cathedra. Allah will
multiply it for him manifold Yubari for who a barf and both of these words are from the root letter
		
00:06:38 --> 00:07:37
			is loved or infer. Okay? And Olara is the plural of thereof. And it means a double of something. And
a barf means many doubles many multiples. And cathedra further clarifies that so although often
cathedra many multiples, okay, any think about it, too, okay, and two, and two, these are all about
half of two. Okay? Now, you can multiply to three times four times five times a loss pantherella has
cathedra, many, many times. Okay, how many times we learn in total Bacara is 261, that the example
of those who spent their wealth in the way of Allah is like a seed of grain, which grows seven
spikes. So one seed, it grows seven spikes, and in each spike is 100 grains. So how many grains do
		
00:07:37 --> 00:08:30
			you have now from one grain 700? Over there 700 As mentioned, here are often cathedra. Any manifold
multiplied many, many, many times, there is no HUD, this is my floor, this is open any limitless.
Okay, limitless, Allah subhanaw taala can multiply that for you many, many times. So this is then
basically an investment, right? It's not a loss any for example, when you give someone a loan, you
don't have that money with you. And then eventually okay they returned the loan, but Allah subhanaw
taala says over here that he will multiply that for you many times, so this is an investment. So,
imagine if you had a chance like this, where someone comes up to you and they say you know what,
		
00:08:30 --> 00:09:21
			very good opportunity completely 100% Halal no interest involved, okay. You will give me 5000 Right
now, we are buying a property. And given how the market is almost guaranteed that the value will
escalate. And the return may be slow, not next year, not the year after, but in five years and 10
years, you will be receiving $100,000 profit every year. Now, if you had an opportunity like this,
even if you did not have $5,000, sitting in a bank account, what would you do? You would call it,
borrow it from your mother, from your father from your someone, right? You would sell something to
get those $5,000 together so that you could invest that money. Right? You would cut back on certain
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:46
			wishes of yours. All right, maybe you cancel a trip or something to save that money in order to
invest it. Because you know that it's an excellent opportunity to grow your money. Allah subhanaw
taala is telling us about an excellent opportunity that will certainly grow our money. And it will
benefit us not just in this life, but also in the next life a dolphin cathedra
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:59
			and this return this manifold return this is guaranteed. Because you know some people you hear
stories like this, that they invested 5000 10,000 Even a million
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:44
			And what happened the investor disappeared, right? Or the market just crashed? These things happen
because things are not in people's control or people are not always honest. Right? They say that
they're taking your money to invest it and the next thing you know they have been using that money.
Right? So, Allah subhanaw taala when he promises you that he will feel sorry for hula hoop above and
cathedra that he will not just return your money to you, but he will multiply it for you. This is
guaranteed, because in the Lucha lair gleeful Murad insert earlier on one iron nine, Allah subhanaw
taala told us that he does not fail in his promise. In the last third of the night, Allah subhanaw
		
00:10:44 --> 00:11:33
			taala asks us that may you carry Lulu or demon while ELWA lumen who would give a loan to the one who
is neither poor nor unjust? You know, sometimes people borrow from you. But then what happens they
go bankrupt. They don't have the money to pay off the loan. They're poor, Allah subhanaw taala is
not poor. And sometimes what happens is that people are unjust, they run away with your money, they
say something and they do something else. Allah is well elbowroom, he is not unjust. So the return
is guaranteed men the Ludy Ucrete Allah carbon Hassan for Your glory for hula who adore often
cathedra. Now notice how it has been said who will give Carlton Hasson and to Allah in fact fee
		
00:11:33 --> 00:12:24
			subete Allah spending in the way of Allah is called comparison and called Hassan Hassan as I
mentioned is something good so alone that is good, a goodly loan when is this good? It is good when
it meets six conditions what are those conditions the first condition is if Laos any a person gives
what he gives Liwa jeweler okay only for the sake of Allah hoping for reward from Allah alone okay
the intention is sincere. Secondly, a person gives min Cassville per human any from lawful clean
money, okay. Not that a person you know, for example, in their bank account, they get interest from
the bank every year or every month, right? And then at the end of the year, they calculate whatever
		
00:12:24 --> 00:13:09
			interest had accumulated and they just take that much money and they give that to the masjid wrong.
Okay, because in Allah Allah Yvonne la Jacoba Lu Illa, Allah Ye, Allah is pure, and he only accepts
what is pure. If a person says you know what, I'm going to buy this lottery ticket so that I win the
lottery, and then all of that money, I'm going to build a masjid with it wrong, that is not called
called person. If a person steals someone's money and then they give that in charity wrong, that is
not called present, if a person takes the wealth of their spouse without their permission or the
wealth of their cousin or the wealth of their sibling or the wealth of their parents, you know,
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:59
			without their permission, and then they give that as charity. No, that is not called Hessen. So it
has to be from lawfully acquired wealth. Okay. The third condition is that it should be given me
enough Cynthia Yeva any it should be given with happiness. Okay, with Riblah happily give in the way
of Allah with happiness of the heart, not with regret and bad feeling that all Why do I have to get
it I don't want to find I'll give it you know, feeling frustrated, this is wrong. Okay? Or if a
person gives like this, it will not be considered comparison. Okay. You have to give it happily
that's the third condition. The fourth condition is that FEMA cannon so here any it should be given
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:55
			in the right place. Okay. For example, you are giving wealth for the sake of Allah in order to
support the religion of Allah. Okay? Or if you are lending it, you know, to someone, you know that
they're going to use it in something lawful. Okay. So for example, Allah subhanaw taala commands us
to spend on our relatives, right? So if you spend on your relatives that is also in obedience to
Allah in the way of Allah. Right. So if you spend on your relatives, that is also a form of God
Hassan, okay. Now what if your relative wants some money, okay? To go on vacation to Vegas, why so
that they can have a party, okay? And they cannot afford a ticket, or they're short on money, and
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			you give them $500 That all
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:44
			Oh my so and so relative, they've never really, you know, gone on vacation. So they're going, I want
them to have fun. Okay, and you give it and you think I'm spending on my relative and Allah subhanaw
taala likes that this is not called Huson because now you're helping your relative do something
unlawful, okay? So God has certain is only a comparison, when you spend in obedience to Allah for
the sake of Allah for the pleasure of Allah, it has to be given in the right place. Okay. So for
example you spend on someone who is in need, you know, for the welfare of the dean, you know, even
if, for example, you spend on your relative, so that they can go on vacation and you know that
		
00:15:44 --> 00:16:26
			they're going to meet family, they're going to, you know, really relax, that's fine. But if you know
that they're going to do something sinful, they're going to buy alcohol, they're going to be
gambling, they're going to be going to places where their sin then you know, that is not called
person. Okay? The fifth condition is that after giving that amount, after giving that form of
charity, a person does not follow that charity with MN and other what is Minh and other that you
constantly remind the other of the favor that you have done to them and like that you hurt them, you
hurt their feelings, because Allah subhanaw taala says, Yeah, you will Lena Amarula took the loss of
		
00:16:26 --> 00:17:11
			the catecholamine manual other and each other, we will read about that in the third use, okay? So
for example, you give something to a relative or you give a donation to a masjid, and you keep
reminding the Imam of the masjid, that, you know, you keep making references to the donation that
you gave, so that they give you preference, this is not called passenden You have wasted the reward
of that charity. All right. And the sixth condition is that if you are giving a loan, okay, because
God hasn't can actually be alone also. So for example, you are giving a loan to a relative for the
sake of Allah, or you're giving a loan to a masjid for the sake of Allah or an Islamic organization
		
00:17:11 --> 00:18:03
			for the sake of Allah, then you are easy going, you're easygoing how that for example, you extend
the return date, if they're struggling, okay. Not that you demand it, you become harsh, you begin to
charge interest and things like that. If that happens, and it would not be comparison, you have the
right to demand it, but if you extend the term, if you grant a delay, then that is better. And that
would make it comparison. So for example, you give a loan of 50,000 to a masjid, okay? They're
struggling with their payroll, for example, or with their bills and you give a loan, okay? And
they're supposed to return it to you, let's say in the summer of 2022, okay, summer comes and the
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:54
			masjid people say that, you know, it's not going to be possible we need some more time. So you say
okay, six more months, give it to me in December. Okay. Now for every day that you extend, you give
an extension, it's as though you are giving charity of that amount. That much reward is recorded for
you. Subhan Allah, so Carlton Hudson, meander levy Euclid Allah called on Hassan for Your glory for
hula who have often cathedra Hey, you want to grow your money? This is how you grow it will Allahu
Yakubu way up Soto what la he told your own and Allah is the One who withholds and he is the one who
extends and to Him you shall return wala Yakubu Yakubu is from cough bow pod and COPD is to retain
		
00:18:54 --> 00:19:51
			or restrict something to sees to not let go. Okay. And also called is that when something is
extended, you contract it, you constrict it, you draw it together, and yep, Soto bass hilltop, it's
the opposite of that best is to stretch out, okay to expand to extend to make it vast. So, Allah is
the One who constricts who withholds something who contracts it, who draws it together, makes it
little after it was more and he is the one who extends it, he expands it he makes it more after it
was little. So think about, for example, a sheet of cloth, okay, you spread it open, the surface
area is so much and then when you fold it when you bring it together, it appears to be so little
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:59
			right? So yuck Bilbo way up Soto who does this Allah subhanaw taala is the one who does this to what
to
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:40
			The wealth that people have. And if you, for example, look at your bank account, if you look at how,
for example, it's been fluctuating. There were times when there was so much money. And then there
were times when there were so little, you know, it goes up and down, up and down, up and down. You
look back at your life, there were times when you were living in a lot of affluence, and then things
were different. And then Alhamdulillah, more wealth again, and then again, little. So you see that
fluctuation, not just in your wealth, but also in the wealth of other people. In the Wealth of
Nations in the wealth of communities, businesses, organizations, wealth fluctuates. And this is not
		
00:20:40 --> 00:21:25
			just in wealth, but also in age, meaning in one's life term, that some people, their life is
extended, they live long lives, and then other people, their lives are constricted in the sense that
they live very short lives, they die very young. So Allahu Akbar, all the way up Soto, some people,
their knowledge is so extensive, all right, other people, their knowledge is so limited. Some
people, their health is so extensive, their ability that Allah subhanaw taala has given them and
other people are different. And again, if you look at your own life, also there were times when you
had a lot of energy, a lot of health, you know, a lot of strength, and then it diminished, and then
		
00:21:25 --> 00:22:06
			it increased. So Allah will yet be the way up. So what does this mean? This means that when you see
diversity in people, some have more of something, some have less of something, then this is by Allah
subhanaw taala is permission. Okay? This is by Allah subhanaw taala is permission. It's not that,
you know, there's something great about that person that they have so much wealth, no fit our own
was also very wealthy, right? karoun was extremely wealthy. So how did karoun have all that wealth?
Allah subhanaw taala is the one who extended that sustenance for him. So Allah Yuck, by the way,
absolutely. It is Allah who does this, not people. And this is also a reminder that what you have
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:55
			right now, it may appear to be a lot, but you know what, tomorrow, it could shrink. Right? And then
if you are experiencing financial difficulty today, don't give up hope. Allah subhanaw taala Yuk
Filou Allah subhanaw taala is able to give you more he's able to extend sustenance for you will love
we Aquila, way up Soto. So don't be stingy. When giving in the way of Allah give. And don't be
afraid. Today. Your circumstances are difficult tomorrow las pantherella can give you ease and the
wealth that you have right now. It's not going to stand like that with you forever. Today your house
you know it may have a lot of value tomorrow if the market crashes, your house will have no worth.
		
00:22:55 --> 00:23:42
			So we'll lower yuck bill the way absoluto what la he thought Jerome, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam said that whoever loves that he should be granted more wealth when a hub Ayoub sup Allah
who fear is speeding, same route Ube SAPA lofi to see that he is given more sustenance while you're
on such a low fee or 30, and that his life is extended, then funnily acelera, Hema, who he should
keep good relations with his kith and kin. So Allah Who Jacobi Liu way up sootel This is in Allah's
control, as Allah says in surah Al Imran Ayah 37 that in Allah yo Zuko mania shout will be lady who
said, Allah provides whomever he wants, without any measure. And in sort of the room I had 37 Our
		
00:23:42 --> 00:24:30
			lamjao Analy absurd Risca lemania shadowy actor, do they not see that Allah is the One who extends
provision for whom so ever he wills and he is the one who restricts it all right. And these
decisions of Allah is not to give more to some less to some or more now, less later, this
fluctuation or variation, this is based on Allah's wisdom and knowledge. Okay, it is not random.
This is based on Allah's wisdom and knowledge. And for those who are righteous abundance in
sustenance means that they will increase in righteousness. But for many people, what happens the
more they have, the more stingy or wasteful they become, the more disobedient they become. May Allah
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:59
			subhanaw taala protect us. So Allah Who Jacobi all the way up Soto wat la hito, Jeroen and to Him
you all shall return. La he Illa means to word he him to him to Geron to Gerawan Rajim arraign
Rujuta to return any, you will return to Allah. Now notice that it has not been said to Gerona LA.
That is also grammatically correct. Okay. Rather it has been said la
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:58
			He told Geralyn to Him you shall return Eli he is first. Why? Because this shows the cease any
specification that you will return only to Allah no one else when you die you're not going to rest
in peace forever. Okay? Any the grave is not the destination, you have to return to Allah, the home
of the Hereafter paradise is where peace is right? That is what we should be striving for what la he
told Joan to him alone you shall return like this is similar to IACA Norbu you alone, we worship a
Laker or Hakim, it is your judgment I seek bigger, aha slim, right? So when the pronoun is mentioned
first it shows specification. So a little Geron, why is this mentioned over here because when you
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:55
			return to Allah, then you will see the outcome of what you have done. And that results that
determines your destiny, your eternity, right. So he will reward you for what you gave in his way,
you will see how much your investment has increased Subhanallah you know, sometimes, if you make an
investment, the returns are delayed. Okay? And sometimes you see, it was not worth it. And other
times you see all boy, it was definitely worth it. Alright, for example, if you invest 10,000, and
you will only get the returns in, let's say, five years. You have to wait all that time. And then
after five years, what do you get a check off? $50 you're like, Man, I'd invested so much just for
		
00:26:55 --> 00:27:47
			this. But then if the check is $500 Every month, you're like, oh, okay, it was delayed, but it's
worth it. If it's $1,000 you're like wow, it's delayed, but it's worth it. So now imagine what la he
told your own you will return only to him. And when you go there and you see what Allah has in store
for you, you will be happy. Right? You know, like our little de la Mourinho, he said that Alina will
fuck through that real richness and poverty is after Vardar Allah Allah after being presented before
Allah, any right now what is your net worth doesn't matter. Right now how much wealth you have
doesn't really matter. Because this status can change very quickly. Your real status will be
		
00:27:47 --> 00:28:35
			determined after you meet Allah. So what are you doing for that? What are you doing for that? Allah
subhanaw taala asks us who will give a loan to him. So who will affirm us give a loan to Allah and
when we read such ayat that we should act immediately. Don't delay, whatever you can give, you know,
give something in the way of Allah and don't undermine what you have what you can give, okay,
because in Hadith we learn that when a person gives even one date, one day eat fruit in the way of
Allah and He gives it from pure earnings. And Allah is pure he accepts only what is pure than Allah
accepts that in his right hand any Allah accept that contribution from you even though it is so
		
00:28:35 --> 00:29:14
			little, and then Allah subhanaw taala looks after it, he causes it to grow just as one of you
meaning a person looks after his full full as in baby horse. Okay, you look after you have to take
care of it. And then what happens that date becomes the size of a mountain, you gave a date and near
Allah, it's become a mountain Allah subhanaw taala will give you that much reward. So don't be
stingy when giving to Allah. Let's listen to the recitation of these verses irlam door ale l Edie in
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:16
			the
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:23
			UK all
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:27
			here
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:30
			in Ireland
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:40
			Well, God's Luffy savvy
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:47
			Oh, Allah has me on alim.
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:58
			They alive Oh
		
00:29:59 --> 00:29:59
			Kathy.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:48
			You're all well loved we are going to be all the way up and so boy Elaine, he told him Joan will
Allahu Yakubu the way up Soto This also means that the increase and decrease of your wealth does not
happen because of sadaqa because you give in the way of Allah or because you spend on others, rather
the increase and decrease in your wealth happens by the permission of Allah. You know, for example,
when a person is thinking about giving some charity, okay? And you know, there's that fear that if I
give, I will have less, no the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said man knock Assad sadhaka Tomi
mal sadaqa does not decrease wealth, it does not decrease it. So why do you have less money than
		
00:30:48 --> 00:31:33
			sometimes because that is what Allah subhanaw taala decreed for you. Why do you have more money
sometimes because that is what Allah subhanaw taala decreed for you. Okay, so the fear of poverty,
the fear of having less should not prevent us from getting in the way of Allah, just as the fear of
death should not make us cowards, right should not make us disobedient to Allah. Likewise, the fear
of poverty should not hold us back from giving in the way of Allah. In fact, if we want to increase
in our wealth, we should give in the way of Allah, if you want your money to grow, you don't just
keep it, if you keep it, you know, saved in a wallet in an envelope in a drawer, it's just going to
		
00:31:33 --> 00:32:19
			stay there, it's not going to grow. In fact, it's only going to diminish, right because every time
you need to spend you take something or when you take something from it until eventually you run
out. So if you want your money to grow, it needs to go from you to an investor, right? So give in
the way of Allah and Allah subhanaw taala, He is Allah ZOC he is the sustainer and he is the one who
controls the amount of wealth you have Allahu Akbar all the way up Soto so don't hesitate in giving
in the way of Allah. Okay, there's a question when you are in a habit of giving sadaqa Okay, so that
you can get something you can receive something from Allah, whatever it may be, this is fine, you
		
00:32:19 --> 00:33:09
			are using that sadaqa as it was sila, right as a means of closeness to Allah as a means of having
your door accepted. Okay? So this is completely permissible, and you may be unhappy or sad, because
you still don't have what you want. And it's fine, that you are sad, you're allowed to feel sad, but
you should not give that sadaqa as if it's a fine or a tax or a burden. Because if you give it in
that way, then it's not considered comparison. Okay? It's only a comparison if you give it happily.
All right. And in fact what you should do is that even after you get from Allah subhanaw taala what
you want Allah Subhana Allah blesses you with the children that you want with you know, the degree
		
00:33:09 --> 00:34:00
			you want to complete the trip you want to make whatever it is, after that, continue to give sadaqa
All right, continue as gratitude don't stop them, whatever amount you can give, make a habit and
continue to give in the way of Allah subhanaw taala membership of a mosque is that called person I'm
not aware of the details of how exactly this works this membership but if it is that you are, you
know, basically you are supporting the structure of the mosque right of the organization, by being a
member, you are making regular payments, you don't have to, you're not obligated to but make sure
when you give it you give it happily okay not as a burden and you give from lawful money, okay. And
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:44
			you give only for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. If, for example, a membership of a mosque is for
instance, $500 a month, for example, and you use that as a status symbol. That is not a class. Okay,
that is not a floss. So make sure you do it with sincerity. Another question if we know someone has
an addiction and is asking for money, but reassures us that they will not spend the money on
something bad. Should we still give them the sadaqa and leave it to Allah, you will deal with people
based on what they're telling you. If they're telling you that they're going to go to Vegas and
party over there. Well, what exactly does that mean? You can ask them? If they say oh, we're just
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:59
			gonna go sightseeing. Well, okay. But if they say we're going to be staying at this hotel, we're
going to be going to discuss it No, then no, you don't give it all right. But if someone says that,
no, I am going to meet my father who lives there and
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:44
			don't have money for the ticket, you will just accept what they're telling you, you're going to
believe them. Okay? And yes, you're going to leave it to Allah what happens after that is their
problem, how to incorporate the name of Allah and Kaabil Albacete in our door. You can do that when
you're asking Allah subhanaw taala for abundance and wealth. You know, for example, you want to do a
lot you want to spend on your relatives, you also want to spend on yourself. You also want to, you
know, buy a gift for your child you want to spend on your spouse, and you have a limited amount of
wealth. So you say yeah, Bossa expand the sustenance for me expand this wealth for me, so that I can
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:50
			do you know, this and this and this. So you can use names like that in your dorm.
		
00:35:51 --> 00:36:42
			God has an only one given to other Muslims, that was not a condition, right? The cat is only for
Muslims. Okay, and there's only one exception whereas a cat can be given to people who are not
Muslim yet. But otherwise, when it comes to charity, okay, you can spend on non Muslims also, in the
Quran in surah, al Insan, we learn Wildberry monotaro Marilla who behaved miskeen and way a team and
what a Sierra and they feed, they give food to others, in spite of love for that food, they give it
to others, okay, who they give it to the one in need, the orphan and the prisoner. Okay. Now the one
in need that could be Muslim or non Muslim, or if and also Muslim, non Muslim prisoner, who would be
		
00:36:42 --> 00:37:27
			a prisoner, for example, at the time of the Prophet sallallahu Ortiz and someone who was not a
Muslim, right? So you are allowed to spend on non Muslims. But this has to be something other than
zakat? Should you stop giving to a person who is unappreciative and belittles your efforts? No, you
shouldn't, you should not because you are not giving them in order to receive reward from them. You
are giving to receive reward from WHO? Allah azza wa jal, that is if lost the first condition.
Right. You're seeking Allah's approval. And literally sometimes what happens you give someone
something and the moment they see it, they show ingratitude. They complain about what you give them.
		
00:37:27 --> 00:38:09
			Right? You bring your child ice cream as a surprise. And the moment they see it, they get angry. Why
did you bring this flavor? You know, I don't like it. Alright, so they start complaining
immediately. And you think, never again? No, no, you have to you will because even for your own
child, when you did something, you did it for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. And when you're
doing something for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala then Landry Dominicans, Rosa and wallah
Shakira, then we do not desire from your people, any gratitude or any reward, you're not seeking a
reward from people. Okay? If you get interest from a bank, can you give it into the car without
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:52
			expecting reward? Now, first of all, if you receive interest from your bank, then go and speak to
them, okay, and say that you stop this, or I am going to take my account elsewhere, I'm going to
take all this money elsewhere, and they will try to accommodate you. Okay? Try once, try twice. Try
again and again, as much as you can. All right. Secondly, if it's really not working in the
meantime, or for the interest that has accumulated, what you can do is you make sure you calculate
that and you remove it. And don't wait for years to pass before removing because if interest is
incorporated with your Halal money, it's going to corrupt it. Okay, think about it in your
		
00:38:52 --> 00:39:39
			refrigerator, you have great clean, amazing food. Okay, organic, fresh, recently purchased,
everything is delicious. And then there is one thing that's rotting, okay, imagine if there is a
piece of pork in there. Any one dirty thing is enough to ruin everything else. Okay, so don't wait
too long to remove it, remove it quickly. And then what you can do with that interest money is that
you can either give it to someone who has to pay off interest, okay? Or some of them I have given
the fatawa that for example, it can be used to build the washrooms in the masjid or something like
that. But I don't like that idea because Masjid is the house of Allah Allah will do is also an act
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:59
			of worship. So why should the widow area be built with money that is not clean? Money that is not
pure. So you can get rid of it knowing that you will not receive reward, it's not considered a
sadhaka All right, Inshallah, we'll conclude over here, vertical ofI calm Inshallah, we will have
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:04
			versus related to interest coming up into the bucket and we can discuss more weather
