00:00:00 --> 00:00:52
			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim yeah a you Halina Amano all you who have believed and feel call me Mel
was a canal come spend from that which We have provided for you men cobbly And yet Tia yo Mala by
your own fee he will who let on wala Shiva before there comes a day in which there is no exchange
and no friendship and no intercession. Well Kathy Runa humo Lottie Moon and the deniers, they are
truly wrongdoers. Earlier on we learned in verse 245, where Allah subhanaw taala says men that
Olivia Euclid Allah Qurban Hasina, that who will lend Allah a good loan, and Allah will multiply
that for him many times. So there we were given encouragement, there was the leap, there was
		
00:00:52 --> 00:01:38
			encouragement to spend in the way of Allah, in this verse is the heap there is warning that you
better spend because you need to, there is a difficult day coming up, when you will not be able to
do anything to save yourself. So prepare for it now. And we see this in the Quran that there is both
the rib and the hip, that there are verses that encourage us to do something. And then there are
verses that warn us that you better do this or else you will suffer you will be in difficulty. So
this is the Mercy of Allah, that Allah subhanaw taala encourages us and warns us in order to guide
us towards what is best for us. So here Allah subhanaw taala addresses the believers that all you
		
00:01:38 --> 00:02:30
			who have believed unfaithful you should spend and unfilled call is from the root letters known fell
off in Phalke to spend. So spend what spend meaning give what you must give the sadaqa why Juba,
then Africa, why Juba, meaning those expenditures that are an obligation on a person. So for
example, a man has to spend on his wife on his children. So this is why but this is an obligation on
him. Likewise, a man a woman, a child, if they have wealth, that is acceptable, meaning wealth on
which the cat is due, then they must give that zakat. So for example, if there is a six year old
girl who has a whole lot of gold that her grandmother her mother has given her and all of that is
		
00:02:30 --> 00:03:18
			her property that her parents must ensure that the cat is given from that gold. Likewise, if you
have put away a certain amount of money for your child, and that money is sitting in the bank, and
it is such that the cat is do you want it then you as parents must give us a cat from that money.
Why because the cat is wajib it doesn't matter what the age of a person is, it doesn't matter
whether that person earns an income or not, if you have wealth that is sitting with you for an
entire lunar year and that wealth is such that the cat is due on it meaning it reaches a certain
threshold and it is type of wealth on which the cat is given then the cat is payable and it must be
		
00:03:18 --> 00:04:02
			calculated at the right time and it must be given at the right time. So unfilmable spent now of
course the details of the cat I am not going to go into all of that right now. But make the
intention to learn the details of the cat because this is something that we have to do we have to
give us a cat on the wealth that is with us. So unphysical Mimoza cannot come so first of all spend
what give the cat Secondly, in Phalke also includes the toward meaning voluntary spending, voluntary
spending, because you see the spending, which is why'd you that is obligatory if a person does not
spend that wealth, then they're sinful. So for example, if a person does not give us a cat, they're
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:46
			incurring sin, if a person if a man does not spend on his children, his wife and their suffering is
incurring sin. The Thor on the other hand, voluntary spending is that which you do out of your own
will it is not mandatory on you, but you do it in order to earn the pleasure of Allah subhanaw
taala. So for example, you spend on your relatives you spend on your neighbors you spend on those in
need, those who have less than you, or you see someone has a certain need, so you spend on them in
order to fulfill their need, that you're not obligated to but you voluntarily do so. So this is the
third work. So unphysical spend, this includes voluntary spending also. Then thirdly, spend what
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:59
			feasable Allah for the religion of Allah in order to support the religion of Allah, and how can you
do that, for example, support a masjid support the publication of
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:49
			of Islamic materials, support students off sacred knowledge. All right. So all of this is part of in
fact, so unphysical spend, spend How much minmetals or cannot come from what We have provided you.
Now, mimma min means some of okay, meaning you're not expected to spend everything that you have,
you can keep for yourself also. So for instance, when it comes to the cat, we're not required to
give all of what we have. No, it's just 2.5%. Right? It's a certain percentage of the wealth that a
person has. So spend some of what we have given you. Likewise, when a person spends on their family
on their children, it doesn't mean that they have to spend everything they have to spend on the
		
00:05:49 --> 00:06:31
			needs of the family. Yes, at times, that means the entire paycheck goes but a man should not feel
guilty in spending on himself. A lot of men Masha Allah, you know, out of their generosity, and
their concern for their family they spend on their families, but they don't spend on themselves.
There are a few men who are like that, I think, but some men literally feel guilty buying clothes
for themselves or buying good food for themselves, or buying a new phone for themselves. Some men
are the opposite, where they will spend on themselves so much that their family is neglected. But
there are some men who feel guilty spending on themselves. So there is no harm in spending on
		
00:06:31 --> 00:07:17
			yourself. Because Allah subhanaw taala does not expect from you that you give everything you have.
And secondly, minmetals akana Khan, Amin over here can also be of Silla, meaning spend what We have
given you. And this is a reminder that whatever you have, you have it because Allah has given it to
you. It's not intrinsically yours, right? You have the wealth that you have, not because you are
self made, no Allah subhanaw taala has granted you what you have, because it is is in the hands of
Allah and He gives it so be humble and give, do not be greedy to not be stingy. And do not be afraid
to give because you have someone who gives you Subhanallah you know, when you have a stable source
		
00:07:17 --> 00:08:03
			of income, all right, then you are not afraid to spend why? Because you know that next month, you
will get another paycheck, and then you will have more. So when you have a stable job, a stable
source of income, then the fear of spending leaves you you are no longer afraid to give. Whereas if
you think about it, that next paycheck is not guaranteed how often it happens that all of a sudden
for no reason someone is fired from their job and as they're fired, they also lose health insurance
and so many other things because of which all of a sudden their life changes. But What is guaranteed
is that you have Allah who is a Lazic who provides you in whose hand is sustenance, and he is
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:52
			telling you that you spend so when you spend, don't have fear rather have this confidence that Allah
is there to give you he gave you yesterday he gave you today he will give you again it is in the
hands of Allah and if Allah has written something for you, you will certainly receive it. If Allah
has not written something for you, there is no way that you can get it. So unphysical minmetals
economical spend out of what We have given you spend what We have given you men cobbly A yet ta yo
before a day comes any make use of the opportunity that you have right now, spend while you can make
use of the wealth that you have been given min Coverly and yet to your before a day comes and when
		
00:08:52 --> 00:09:40
			cobbly is from cough Bella Rosa Kona is from Ross a cough. So there is urgency over here. And there
is a warning against procrastination as if a threat has been given that spend now because soon a
time will come when your money will not help you. Money will not help you at that time. And we see
that at the time of death. People show regret. We learn in certain who Nephi Cohn is number 10 Allah
subhanaw taala says what unfair Coleman models are Codelco men Coverly and yet deer herder Komal
mode spend from what We have given you before death comes to one of you fire cooler up below law a
hot attorney Illa ajilon Curry then he says oh my lord Why did you not defer me for some more time
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:59
			meaning Why did you not delay my death for a little longer for a sadaqa so that I could give charity
will come in a Salah Hain and I could be of those who are righteous, meaning a person who will have
regret at the time of death. They will wish that they had more time so that they could spend in
charity. So spend before death
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:50
			To spend before a day comes, what kind of a day is this the day of judgment, love by your own fee,
it is a day in which there is no beer law, Bayer. Bayer is from the root letters Bahrain, and Bayer
is trade. And if you think about it, it is through trade through business buying and selling, that
we buy, we access things or services that we want, that we are in need of. Right? It is through
trade, buying and selling, that we're able to get the benefits we are seeking, or protect ourselves
from harms that we want to avoid, or come out of trouble that we are in. And this is what you know,
people typically do that when they're in some danger, some kind of harm, they use their money,
		
00:10:51 --> 00:11:34
			right? buy medicine, pay for a certain treatment, paying for an appointment with someone who can
help us pay the lawyer, you use your money to access these things in order to help yourself in order
to bring yourself out of trouble. Or in order to acquire certain benefits. For example, if you're
traveling, you need something that you will use your money you go by, I remember once we were
traveling somewhere, and I didn't realize I was wearing the wrong shoes, because there was so much
walking that was required and my shoes were not fit for walking. And as you know, we were walking
Subhan Allah there was a sport check or something. And 100 Ally walked into the store, bought
		
00:11:34 --> 00:12:19
			running shoes, walking shoes, and I was so comfortable for the rest of the trip. So at times you
help yourself how by buying what you need. But on the day of judgment, there is no Beyer, you cannot
buy good deeds, you cannot use your money at that time, in order to buy things that will be of
benefit to you. On that day law by your own fee. There is no trade, there is no buying selling.
Sometimes what happens is that if you don't have money, for instance, when you're traveling, then
you try to sell what you have, so that you can get money in order to help yourself but the Day of
Judgment, love iron fi, there is no trade in it. You cannot purchase anything, you cannot sell
		
00:12:19 --> 00:13:03
			anything. You cannot help yourself with the money you have. So your money will not help you on the
Day of Judgment. Secondly, while our hola tone, there is no hola on that day, there is no intimate
friendship on that day that can help you. There are times when if your money cannot help you, your
friendship does and hola is from Harlem lamb. All right, hula is the highest level of love. Okay,
basically, if you're familiar with the term killall filoil is, you know, when you're making will do
bring your fingers together and pass the fingers of one hand through the gaps between the fingers on
the other hand, all right, why do you do that in order to make sure that the space between the
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:55
			fingers, all right, that is also wet. Okay. Likewise, men, they have to pass their hands through
their beards to ensure that their chin is thoroughly wet. Right? So this is phenol. So Hera has what
the gap, the void the emptiness somewhere, all right, so you want to fill that hula is the highest
level of love that enters the void, okay, of a person that seeps into all of a person's being,
friendship and love that is absorbed by a person. Okay? And what this means is that basically, this
kind of friendship and love impacts your entire life. Okay? So for instance, the relationship
between a child and a mother, a child entirely dependent on the mother, you know, for example, other
		
00:13:55 --> 00:14:40
			people can change the diaper. Other people can take the baby on a walk, maybe help birth the baby,
but the baby needs the mother for food, and sometimes not just food for comfort, also, for soothing
purposes, even the child needs the mother. So the child is at entirely dependent on the mother that,
you know, it's the relationship that the child has with the mother is such that it impacts the
entire life of the child. Right? And developmentally, also, any this is something essential for a
child that the child has that comfort knowing that the mother is there, that when the child cries,
the mother responds, and if the mother does not, if the mother neglects the child, then what happens
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:59
			the child has issues with regard to their relationship with their parents, right. Some children,
they have a secure relationship with their parents, their primary caregiver, some children, they
don't have that security. They have insecure attachment, and there's different types of attachments.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:55
			Why this is based on how the child was treated, right? How the child was cared for in times when the
child had a need and the need was not fulfilled. So this is Hola, okay hola is friendship that
enters the void of a person, it seeps into all of a person's being it impacts their entire life. Now
think about this relationship between the mother and the child. Allah subhanaw taala tells us in
sutra Hajj is number two, that the day of judgment is such that yo mama Tarragona Ha, hello calomel
theoretischen Amna robots. That is the day when every nursing mother will forget about abandon what
she was nursing, and more. Dara is the mother that is nursing that is actively engaged in the act of
		
00:15:55 --> 00:16:40
			nursing its child. You see this in animals even like your own pet cat, for example, if she has a
litter and you know you are there or you are touching the kittens, that cat will become defensive.
Initially, you have to give the cat some space, especially when they're nursing the child in it.
There's such love and attachment that you can see on the face of the mother. You can see the comfort
that the child is experiencing the Day of Judgment, what will happen the mother will abandon its
nursing baby and eat completely leave it throw it away and not care about it. This is the day of
judgment. So if a mother nursing mother will abandon the child that she is nursing, then what are
		
00:16:40 --> 00:17:21
			their friendship will matter on that day, in sort of the Zakharov is 67 Allah subhanaw taala tells
us a healer who Yama even Bardo humbly bargainer I do that close friends, same word has been used
over there, friends that have Hola, hola. On that day, some of them will be enemies to others, they
will become enemies to each other, except for those who fear Allah, they will not become enemies to
one another. So we see that on the Day of Judgment, friendship cannot help a person because people
will abandon each other, they will run away from each other. And you see, when your money does not
help you, then what happens? Your friends help you they come to your aid. Typically in the world,
		
00:17:21 --> 00:18:04
			when you're in some difficulty, you know, for example, you could have 1000s of dollars, but you're
sick, you are not feeling well. You will need food, all that money, all the valuable things that you
own, your expensive clothes, your bags, whatever it is that you have, they don't help you when
you're hungry and you're sick. What do you need, you need a good friend who will bring you some warm
soup, right, who will send you a kind message who will come and maybe do the dishes for you, right,
who will come and spend time with you who will just talk to you. So when your money does not help
your friends help on the Day of Judgment, friendship cannot eat a person and then Wallah Shiva that
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:43
			is a day when no intercession will help a person either no intercession lash of our Shiva is from
the root letters sheen fine, and we have discussed the meaning of this word in great length before
so no intercession will work that day. This doesn't mean that intercession does not exist on the Day
of Judgment, no intercession it exists on the day of judgment, but it will only occur when certain
conditions are fulfilled. Okay? Otherwise intercession cannot help a person because we learned that
people will go to prophet after prophet on the day of judgment and what will that Prophet say for
example, they will go to Adam or listen and they will say to Adam or listen and Allah made you, you
		
00:18:43 --> 00:19:27
			know, with his own hand, Allah put you in Jannah, Allah subhanaw taala pardoned you so you intercede
for us, you ask Allah to begin the judgment so that we can, you know, get to our destination,
because people will be standing in the great gathering for so long. You know, the fear and the
anxiety of waiting to see what will happen that will eat them up from the inside. So they will say
to Adam or the Sunnah, then please ask Allah to begin the judgment. And Adam or listener will refuse
he will say no, my Lord is angry today. Lamb young Coppola who Mithila who he was never angry like
this ever before. So I am afraid I am afraid I am not going to ask I made a mistake. I'm afraid to
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:59
			ask God to know they will go to know how to listen and know how to listen and will also refuse. He
will say go to Ibrahim. They will go to Brahim or Islam he will refuse they will go to Musala. Sam,
he will refuse they will go to resign Islam he will refuse. Every prophet will say enough's enough.
See, right, they will refuse. And then finally, or ISA, listen, I will tell them go to Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi salam, they will go to Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, and as I mentioned to you
earlier, that you will fall in such and He will glorify and praise Allah subhanaw taala with praise
that Allah will be pleased with
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:41
			And then the prophets of Allah who are listening will be told that intercede and your intercession
will be accepted. So he will do Shiva Ozma alright. So, Shiva intercession will be there on the day
of judgment, but it will only happen when, when Allah subhanaw taala allows. So there are three
conditions for true intercession. What are these three conditions? The first condition is that Allah
is pleased with the intercessor with the one who is interceding that no random person can just stand
up and begin to intercede Yeah, Allah please forgive so and so, yeah Allah please allow so and so to
enter paradise. No, only that person will be able to intercede when Allah subhanaw taala is pleased
		
00:20:41 --> 00:21:26
			with them. Secondly, the second condition is that Allah is pleased with the one being interceded for
Okay, meaning if there is a person who comes on the Day of Judgment with Schick, then even if
someone whom Allah is pleased with intercedes for them that intercession will not be accepted. In
surah Taha for 18 We learn malleable aluminium in Hammond wala Shaffir in Utah, the wrongdoers will
have no friend and no intercessor who is obeyed, meaning no one can intercede for them, no one will
be able to intercede for them. Why? Because these people have done wound themselves in Serato MBI a
28 will Irish Verona Illa Lima near Toba, they cannot intercede except for the one whom Allah is
		
00:21:26 --> 00:22:12
			pleased with insert the ninja Maya 26 will come in Milliken for Samoa Tila Tonisha or Tom Shea in
Lombardi and yet then Allah Who Lee May a shallow way of that how many angels there are in the skies
and their intercession will not help at all except after Allah allows for whom He wills and whom He
is pleased with. So first, Allah will be pleased with the person, meaning Allah will allow that
intercession be made for them. They're worthy of intercession. And thirdly, the third condition is
that Allah allows the intercession to take place so yummy the Latin Pharaoh Shiva 211 Alina la hora
hermana world the Allahu kola. So no intercession will work on the day of judgment, without the will
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:54
			of Allah. So it's not guaranteed. In other words, right. And so often it happens in the world, we
witnessed this, that, for example, someone is in trouble in great difficulty. And they are accused
of a crime for example, and they go to one lawyer, the lawyer refuses to take their case, they say,
oh, there is no hope. I'm sorry, I cannot take this on. This is not going to work. It's a waste of
my time. They go to another lawyer, they refuse another lawyer they refuse. All right. So no one is
willing to even take their case. So low by your own fee, he will a whole lot on Well, Asha Farah,
there is no intercession in it's not guaranteed that it will work for you. So do something now,
		
00:22:54 --> 00:23:34
			before that day, before you leave this world, because when death comes, there is no more ammo. You
cannot do anything, then. And the only thing that can continue to increase you and your good deeds
after you die is what sadaqa jariya some charity that is continuous, meaning its benefit is
continuous. So for example, you give money so that a well can be dug, and people have access to
water. So what happens now, you leave the world, but that water is still you know, accessible to
people, and they're able to benefit from it. This is the kajaria Secondly, some knowledge that you
preserve that you taught and it has benefited from. So for example, you wrote something, you know,
		
00:23:34 --> 00:24:21
			for example, in mumble hottie, he compiled a collection of authentic a hadith. And that book is
something that has benefited from till today, he is gone, but that book people benefit from till
today. So this is something that continues to benefit a person. You teach your child Surah Fatiha,
you teach people how to recite Surah Fatiha now until they continue to recite you get the reward.
And imagine now if they teach someone else to recite Allahu Akbar, what an investment into you teach
someone you learn the proper way of reciting Surah Al Fatiha. All right. And then you teach your
children you teach people how to recite Surah Fatiha, they recite it you get reward for that also,
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:59
			and now they teach other people and then those people teach other people. You see how when you learn
about how someone has an ijazah right what is an ijazah? That they got permission basically from
their teacher that you are allowed to teach? Because you have learned you have mastered this.
Alright, so they got that agenda from their teacher who got their Jazza from someone who got their
data from someone Subhan Allah. So all the people who learned something because of what you taught
them, and then they pass on that knowledge they pass on that knowledge they act upon that knowledge,
you get so much reward. And then the third thing is a righteous childhood.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:44
			prays for you, right? But Subhan Allah ne oftentimes we see children don't care about their parents,
even when they're alive. What is the guarantee that those children will pray? So don't rely on
others do something yourself now, there is urgency here that unfuckable models of Canal communicably
And yet to yo Mala Bayer and fee when a Khaled on wala Shahara World Cafe Runa, Houma la le moon,
and those who disbelieve it is there who are the wrongdoers and this Cofer can be covered Akbar and
those who disbelieve that they are the wrongdoers meaning they will have no one to blame on the Day
of Judgment except themselves. And this can also be called for neuroma, that denial of blessing in
		
00:25:44 --> 00:26:23
			gratitude for blessing that Allah subhanaw taala gave you the blessing of sustenance of his and you
are not giving from it. So you will have no one to blame on the day of judgment but yourselves, we
learn in a hadith that Allah subhanaw taala says that all son of Adam, if you spend the surplus the
extra that you have, it will be better for you. And if you retain it, it will be bad for you. Can
you when you have something extra, give, give, for example, you got a nice box of dates, and then
you got another one somebody gave it to you. Now don't be greedy that oh, I'm going to keep
everything what will happen, you will finish one box. All right. And then by the time you open the
		
00:26:23 --> 00:27:08
			next one or you open both of them, alright, you're not able to finish them all. Some of them get so
dry and hard that you end up throwing them. So don't be greedy that you will use everything you
have. You want to keep it you want to eat it share give the extra because that is better for you,
when you give you are preserving that property meaning you are securing it because now you will be
rewarded for it. When you give you are increasing your property because that reward inshallah will
be multiplied. So give the extra that you have. Well Kathy Runa homos, Lolly moon, those who
disbelieve they're the ones who do wrong and are thought even dinar he said Alhamdulillah that Allah
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:26
			said well Kathy Runa homos Ali moon. Those who disbelieve are the wrongdoers and not to unbeli Munna

we do some kind of injustice. So it is Allah's blessing that he did not say, Well golly Munna home
