Levina Yun Falcone I'm Wallah home FISA vilella Some Mullah youth Bureau Nama and furcal men and wallah other law home drew Homer indoor be him. What are hopeful gnarly him wala homea has unknown. Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah, and then do not follow up what they have spent with reminders of it, or other injury, they will have the reward with their Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve. In the previous IO also, we learned about the reward of spending in the way of Allah. And that reward is not just one sadhaka bringing one reward or one sadaqa bringing 10 times the reward, but it can be up to 700 times and even more. So these verses

00:00:53--> 00:01:43

they teach us about the reward of sadaqa. And then they also teach us about the etiquette of sadaqa that how should we give charity in the way of Allah to ensure that we get maximum reward or increased and reward that is multiplied many times over. So the first thing we learn is Alladhina, Yun, Falcone and wala home feasable. Allah, those people who spend their properties in the way of Allah. Yun Falcone is from nonfat cough in FARC is to spend and while is the plural of the word mal which has property so they spent their properties and remember that mile can apply to any kind of property. It doesn't just refer to cash or gold or Bitcoin. It can include any food, it can include

00:01:43--> 00:02:33

clothing, it can include, you know, furniture, anything, and while is a generic term for all types of properties, so they spend their properties feasable Allah in the way of Allah, and we discussed in great length what feasable Allah means that primarily this refers to serving the religion of Allah, whether it is in its defense or in its propagation, to take the message of Islam to others. It can be in the form of you know, Dawa and Tbilisi, in conveying the message of Allah. It can be in the form of at times, even jihad as we discussed earlier, and feasterville Allah remember this also means for the sake of Allah, any in the Cause of Allah, in the cause that takes a person to Allah,

00:02:33--> 00:03:20

and he truly for the approval of Allah. And, you know, we learned about a man who came to the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam with a camel and that camera was all you know, ready, it was tamed. It was the robe, everything was on it, it was settled, everything was you know, ready. And he said that this is feasible Allah and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, that you will have 700 like it on the Day of Judgment. So those people who spend their wealth in the way of Allah and remember that when we spend in the way of Allah, we are actually benefiting ourselves. And he when we read the word Spiess Abele Allah it seems like perhaps the religion of Allah is in our need,

00:03:20--> 00:04:10

it needs us to spend, whereas the fact is that we need to spend on the religion of Allah or for the sake of Allah, whether it is that we give to those in need, why for benefiting ourselves? We learned that once a Bedouin came to our model de la Mourinho and he recited some verses of poetry and or model de la hora and who was the Khalifa at the time so this Bedouin he said to him, er Omar Al Heidi jusy tell Jana book su buena Yachty will Amma Hoonah or con Lana Amina Zamani, Juna oxy mobiler he letter for Alaina? Basically he is telling him that or Omar may you be given Jana give clothing to my daughters and their mothers any we are in need of basic necessities. So I swear by

00:04:10--> 00:04:58

Allah you must do it in a you must give clothing for my family. Supermodel the Longhorn who said Ilam of earlier co Nomada. If I don't do it, then what then what's going to happen? So the man said event about help swindler and Habana. Then I will just go and remodel the Longhorn who said either the hip Teja Kumada so when you go then what will happen? The Bedouin said the corner and Halle lettuce, Elena, you will be questioned about my condition on the day of judgment. And he if you don't spend on my family right now who is in desperate need. Then on the Day of Judgment, you are going to be questioned about our condition, yo Matta corner or a yachtie. Who knows? Well, most

00:04:58--> 00:04:59

people must only buy

00:05:00--> 00:05:50

Hoonah ima Illa nurdin ima Jana, basically, on the day that you know, people will be asked and either people will go to the fire or towards paradise. So you will be asked about my condition on that day. So I'm one of the Allahu anhu, we learned that he began to cry. And he wept so much that his beard became wet. And he gave some clothing to that men. And in some narrations, we learned that he actually gave his own clothing because that is all that he had at the time. Subhanallah so Alladhina, Yun, Mucuna and wala home feasable Allah, those who spend their wealth in the Cause of Allah, this is not because the religion of Allah is poor is a need of our financial aid, or that

00:05:50--> 00:06:40

people who are struggling financially they need us. It's because we need to spend to protect ourselves on the Day of Judgment, to benefit ourselves on the Day of Judgment. So, those people who spend their wealth in the way of Allah, then how do they give How should they give? How do they secure reward for themselves on that day, Allah subhanaw taala teaches us the etiquette the rules, the etiquette is that summer then lay you to be owner and fakuma Nan, Willa other someone then meaning once they spend, after that law, you to be owner, they do not cause to follow mat and football what they have spent, meaning they do not follow their charity with what men with men, well

00:06:40--> 00:07:31

are other nor with other. Now, the word you to be Runa is from turbine and atbara you to Bureau is to cause to follow meaning something goes and then you follow it up with something else or you do something and then you follow it up with something else. So they give sadaqa and then they do not follow it up with two things, what are these two things men and other meaning they refrain from these two things man and other no man is reminder of favor. So for example, a person says, remember what I gave you, or give back when I gave you or you owe me a favor. And other is to give and insult any it is to cause hurt to the recipient how that for example, a person gives them charity, and then

00:07:31--> 00:08:20

he also insults them. So for example, a person says, Here take this law BarakAllahu fique that take this May God not bless you in it, or here, get away from me now, you know a person insults and scolds. So these two things, those who truly spend in the Cause of Allah, they refrain from these two things. And Allah subhanaw taala says regarding them, that it is such people who will have their reward with their Lord thy reward is preserved it will not be wasted and they will have no fear nor will they grieve on the Day of Judgment. So Allah subhanaw taala is praising the people who gave and who do not remind of the favors they have done. Now let's talk about men and other the word man is

00:08:20--> 00:09:10

from the root letters mean noon noon, and man is actually a certain weight, okay, it's actually a certain weight and the word man is used in many different ways. First of all man means to cut Okay, as in total column is a three we learn what in Melaka agilon hiera Mamnoon that you will have a reward that will not be Mamnoon meaning that will not be cut off, it will never be cut off meaning it will be and less and death from the same root is called maroon because it cuts off life. Secondly, the word min also means to diminish Munna shade meaning na casa. So it is to diminish something to reduce something. And one of the interpretations of the Iowa in Nila cola added on

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

later Mamnoon is that your reward will never be reduced, it will never be curtailed. And thirdly, the word man means a huge favor or a heavy weighty favor. So in the Quran we learn in surah Allah and Ron I have 164 that look at the Manila who are a little more me Nina is Bertha fee him was Sula that Allah has bestowed a huge favor a heavy favor on the believers when he sent to them a messenger. So it's a heavy, huge favor. We are uni indebted in the sense that this is a huge favorite that we can never ever pay back for. And it is such a favorite that it cuts off our need in the sense that it fulfills it. It enriches us and it's a

00:10:00--> 00:10:49

complete and perfect favor of Allah that He sent His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa salam to us and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He also said about Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Anhu that in the who lays him in a Nursia who don't men naturally have enough see He wamalwa him and Abeba Criminy Obi Bahasa that there is no one who has done more favor to me. Okay, then Abu Bakr with his life and his property. So man is a huge favor, or to bestow a favor from position of strength or higher rank, Allah subhanaw taala. His name Alma, Nan, means bestower off huge favors heavy favors, favors that we can never thank him enough for. And then fourthly, the word man also means to remind someone of

00:10:49--> 00:11:41

the favor that one has done to them. Okay, why, what is the purpose of reminding the other of the favor in order to put them under obligation, right, in order to make them feel indebted in order to make them feel the weight of the favor? Okay. So it's not necessary that the favor is huge, but the giver wants the receiver to feel like it is huge. So what does the giver do? He keeps mentioning it, he keeps reminding of it, he keeps counting all of the favors that they have done. Okay. Now, why is this called Man? Remember the primary meanings of the word Minh to cut to reduce? Because when you remind someone of a favorite that you have done them, what does it do, it reduces the value of the

00:11:41--> 00:12:25

favor, and it diminishes the enjoyment right off that favor. It cuts off the tongue of the receiver, so they're not able to say anything. And it also diminishes, it reduces their self respect their self worth. So men is to remind someone of the good that you have done to them to list the favors to count them. And this can be done while giving the sadaqa. And also after giving this other QA. So for example, a person is giving money to someone in need. All right, and they say to them, oh, here is $200. Just like last time.

00:12:26--> 00:13:19

This is $200. Just like last time, what's the purpose of saying just like last time, that remember, I also gave you before, and I also gave you 200? Last time, this is not the first time remember the previous time I gave you. So the words just like last time there are what, man a reminder of the favor. All right. Or, for example, a person begins to list before the other. I gave you money last year. And then I helped you pay your fees, as well. And then I gave you a ride. And I've been paying for gas, and I bought you food. I've been paying for groceries, I've been doing this I've been doing this listing every thing that a person has been doing for another as a favor. This has been what is

00:13:19--> 00:14:09

the purpose of man? Why would a person do mn because the psychology over here is that you want others to remember the good that you have done to them. You don't want them to forget it. Right? And you want to receive something in return from them. That you know I acknowledge my favors, praise me, thank me, show respect to me be grateful to me, but the one who gives for the sake of Allah Alladhina Yun falcoda Am wala Han feasable Allah purely for the sake of Allah, then they do not expect anything from the receiver. In skeletal insan we learned learn Ludi domain comm Jessa and Willa Shu Cora, that we do not intend from you any kind of reward, nor any kind of gratitude, you

00:14:09--> 00:14:58

know, I shall do long war on her. She was so careful about this, that when she would send something to, you know, with a servant to another, she would tell her servant that stand there and check, do they make any doll for me, because if they make any doll for me, I have to make the same doll for them, because she believed that receiving the draw from the one that you are given, so the call to is a kind of receiving some kind of favor in return. And she understood that that would diminish her reward Subhanallah This is how careful she was. And we are completely opposite at times. Where when we give something to someone, we look at them we wait in anticipation Did they say thank you, or

00:14:58--> 00:15:00

they're going to say thank you do

00:15:00--> 00:15:44

Did they open it? Did they use it? Do they realize how expensive this gift is? I want them to recognize to understand that this is a very expensive gift and then we go and tell them the story or first I found this but it was not cheap, then I found that one it was too expensive or that one was too cheap and this one was perfect in a good price. If you give it something as a gift, why are you talking about how much it cost, you want the other person to feel that this is a valuable gift. So realize that I have done your sound to you and this is all man and Allah subhanaw taala is telling us over here that those who truly spend for the sake of Allah, they do not follow their charity with

00:15:44--> 00:16:37

MN and then secondly, they do not follow their charity with other other is from the root letters Hamza Dahlia and other is to cause hurt, okay, it is to cause her to someone and other remember it is a mild hurt compared to other words that are used for hurt like butter, or that is a very mild hurt. So, they do not cause even the slightest hurt to the receiver. How can other be caused, or that can be caused in the form of scolding or insulting the receiver, or, you know, trying to get some work out of them in return, that I did this for you. Okay, so now you do this for me, or believing that, you know, they owe you a favor in return, or belittling them by you know, treating

00:16:37--> 00:17:27

them like a nobody, making them feel embarrassed before others. Okay? Now, for example, imagine a person gifted some clothes to someone. Okay. And now both of them meet at a dinner party, where there are many other people. So the giver says to the receiver, all the clothes I gave you fit you so nice. The words I gave you, okay, they are what other because they are embarrassing for the receiver. Now everyone knows that the clothes they're wearing or given to them by you. You might think that Well, what's there to be heard about over here? You never know. You know, sometimes the dynamic is such that, you know, if it's well known that a person is struggling financially, or they

00:17:27--> 00:18:17

have, you know, certain issues because of which they're not able to, you know, find appropriate clothing for themselves and things like that. If you mentioned before everyone that autocoat I gave you actually fit you so nice, this is hurting them. This is embarrassing them. So do not hurt the feelings of those that you are giving charity to. And not just charity, but even a gift to because, for example, sometimes you know we give a gift to our spouse, our children, our siblings, our friends, and it's not that they are in financial need. No, we're just giving a gift. But then we brag about that gift. We talk about it in order to lord over them. You know, this is despicable. So

00:18:17--> 00:19:06

Allah subhanaw taala is warning us against this over here. We learned that even sitting he wants her to men recounting his failures to someone. I did this for you. I did that for you. I did this for you. So you've been sitting and said that men be quiet. Because when a good deed is counted, or when good deeds are counted, there remains no good in them. If you start counting all the favors that you have done to someone then there is no good that's going to remain in them. You're not going to find any benefit any reward whatsoever. And Imam Shafi he said that mina no readerly I love Kulu OB I shut them in Walkerville a Sinha factor oddly enough seeker Hala Will Smith for in a Sabra juna

00:19:06--> 00:20:00

which basically means that reminding people of the favors that you have done them is far more painful on the hearts, then arrows, any think about it, you know, like, Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can also hurt me. Okay? Any sometimes, words are far more painful than sticks and stones. So remember shafr He said something similar, that reminder of favours is more painful, then arrows and daggers on the heart. So here we're being taught the etiquette that those who truly spend in the way of Allah they do not follow their charity with money and other Lahoma or do Homer, Indore or be him? They will have the reward with their Lord. What is that reward?

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

Word. It's not specified over here because that reward is huge. What a homophone, I lay him Willa homea has a noon, and no fear will be on them, nor will they have any regrets, they will not be sad. And remember that hope is fear of the future. And Hosen has a known who isn't is regret over the past. So their sadness regret over what has happened in the past. So the people will give sadaqa properly, they will have no fear and they will have no horizon. And this teaches us that when we give sadaqa whatever we have given in the past, then bury that to the car like a seed. Okay, like a seed is buried. Earlier, we learned that the example is like a hub. So just bury it, meaning forget

00:20:48--> 00:21:34

about it, cover it, forget about it. Leave the results to Allah. Don't keep reminding people about it. Wishing to keep your charities alive and remembered by people. No, leave it to Allah. And Allah subhanaw taala will ensure that you get the reward that you deserve for what you gave, expect reward from Allah. And then don't worry about the future, that if I don't remind them of the favors, then they will forget about it. And they will forget about me, reminding of favors is not an insurance policy, that you keep reminding someone of the favors that you have done so that in the future when you're in trouble, they will feel indebted and they will reciprocate and they will help you know,

00:21:34--> 00:22:16

put your trust in Allah in regard to your future Allah will help you. Allah is Allah Zack he gave you before he's giving you now we will give you again. So don't put people in fear. And Allah subhanaw taala will protect you from fear on the day of judgment. And sometimes it happens that when we do a favor to someone, we put them in fear that now they're forever afraid that as soon as they see you, they get worried they get scared that here Someone has come to embarrass me in front of everyone. And don't put people in prison. Don't put people in regret that by reminding them or favors. You will make them feel like they've made a mistake by accepting a favor from you. Don't

00:22:16--> 00:22:23

make them regret and Allah subhanaw taala will protect you from regret. Well, I hope and I lay him Walla homea is unknown.

00:22:24--> 00:23:18

Caller Mark rufen now lost lb Hara teaches us that Coloma rufen a kind word speech that is acceptable meaning that is good. Well Moffat I don't and forgiveness these two are hyaluron they are much better men sada cotton than a charity which is such that yet Barua other that injury follows it hurt follows it will la honeymoon Holly. Now here comparison is being made between certain things. On the one hand you have older maruf and MA Farah and on the other hand, you have sadaqa which is followed by other okay let's look at Colin Marlowe golden mouthed off is a word that is good alright Mark Rufus from iron Rafa or what is recognized being recognized as good. So a decent word a kind

00:23:18--> 00:24:17

word, good speech, all right. And mofetil Lane FARA forgiveness pardon in these two things is what Agile Paulo maruf kind speech good word you know is sadaqa right? Well calamata Yuba to Sadhak it is rewardable When you forgive someone, that is also rewardable. On the other hand sadaqa is the reward for sadaqa Yes, there is, but what about other in other there is wizard there is not a jewel, but there is wizard there is burden of sin. So, now compare these two things. Column maruf rewardable molfetta rewardable. On the other side, you have sadaqa rewardable, either punishable sinful, so then, which is better, which is better double reward or reward and punishment? Double reward. Right.

00:24:17--> 00:24:59

So gonna Maru from Walmart Fira. This is far better than giving charity and following it up with hurt. So there are different types of people. Okay. First, we see that there are those people who spend their wealth feasable Allah seeking the face of Allah from earning that is pure for the religion of Allah. This is the best forms of spending. Then there are those people who spend from pure earnings in good causes permissible things, they're also rewarded. Then there are those who spend from Casper hobbies

00:25:00--> 00:25:50

From impure earnings, so for example, a person accumulates a lot of interest and then they give that in charity, this is not rewarded. Okay? Then there are those people who spend from pure earnings. But after they give, they do mon and other. Right, they remind the other of the favorite that they have done, and they cause hurt. So what do they do they waste the reward of their charity. And then you also have those people who do not give any money because they simply don't have anything to give. But they give a good word, they say a good word. They say kind words, they say uplifting words, or they show forgiveness to people. Okay? They're also rewarded. So what do we learn from

00:25:50--> 00:26:42

this idea, we learn from this idea that it is better to say a good word, then to give something and wasted with other waste the reward of sadaqa with other and this also shows us that if a person is not able to give sadaqa, and there could be different reasons for that, then what should they do? They should say a kind word, because well, Kalamata yoga to sadhaka. So for example, if someone comes to you and asks you for something, could be your own child even, right? And you don't have anything to give at the time. Or you believe that it's best not to give to your child what they're asking for. Okay? Or, for instance, you are at a traffic light, someone comes in asks for money,

00:26:43--> 00:27:32

they claim that they're homeless, they claim that they haven't eaten for days, but they look perfectly fine, physically, and you suspect that they might be you know, begging for money in order to get drugs. So you feel that it's better to not give them money at that time. Okay. So whatever your reasoning may be, for not giving money, it could be that you simply don't have or that you feel, it's not the best time to give. Or maybe you don't have money at that time to give, then what should you do? You should give hola maruf say something nice. And if you cannot say something nice, then at least forgive. Because you know what happens when people ask, you know, there is some kind

00:27:32--> 00:28:22

of annoyance, right? You get annoyed that why are they asking? Here they are again. Alright, he or she is again here. He's asking again, you get annoyed. So don't keep those ill feelings in your heart for the one who is asking, forgive them. How do you forgive them? By giving them the benefit of the doubt that Oh, perhaps they are really in need, perhaps, you know, maybe they have not eaten in days, maybe they haven't had a proper hot meal in days, or they don't realize that I am also struggling financially. So forgive them, show forgiveness, because when you forgive someone, you get rewarded. So cola Morrow from one Mo Farah, and it's so important that we say good words to people,

00:28:22--> 00:29:07

especially when we don't have anything to benefit them with. Allah subhanaw taala told us in Surah to Nyssa number eight, that when the estate of a deceased person, you know, their estate is being divided among their heirs. And, you know, there are people who come who don't have a share in that estate. So for example, orphans and people in need, or some other relatives, you know, they come Allah subhanaw taala says for Zuko, who Minho will call Lulu whom colon Mara rufa, give them something and say to them a good word, any give something, don't leave them empty handed. And if you don't have anything to give, then at least say something kind to them. And remember that column

00:29:07--> 00:29:52

maruf is on the part of both the one being asked and also the one who is asking. Some people are very harsh and the way that they ask, you know, it's as if they're demanding, threatening, sometimes, you know, the way people ask even their family members, they begin to blackmail, or sometimes children the way that they demand from their parents, or vice versa. Sometimes, you know, we're not asking for charity for ourselves, we're asking for charity for other people or for a good cause. Again, you know, use our Marouf a good word, speak in a good way. And also forgiveness, because sometimes, like I mentioned, those whom you give to are the same ones who are hurting you or

00:29:52--> 00:29:59

sometimes they annoy you by repeatedly asking by nagging. So cola model form Ophira

00:30:00--> 00:30:45

And remember that you know saying good words. This is very important. And showing forgiveness to people is also very important that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, let that person know che a minimal roof, that do not look down upon any good deed, you know, any kind of good deed, and we're unto Colima, a haka. We're Unterman Busselton LA who are took in the valley committee maruf and when you speak to your brother, and you show him a cheerful face, then this is also from maruf and this is also something good, so be pleasant, and protect people from your harm. We learned the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the Khufu shall look around and nests for him now

00:30:45--> 00:31:35

sadhaka to mink, that desist from doing mischief to the people desist from doing harm to the people, and that will be charity on your behalf. And if a person is not able to give and they should just be silent, don't be rude in return. We learned that the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam his way was that whenever he was asked for something he would give, and if not sequitur, he would be silent. So for example, you can give a smile if you're not able to give something material that at least give a smile. If you cannot even do that, then be silent. Willa, honey Yun Halim and Allah is Rich and he is forbearing Allah is money behind known yet is the route and money is the one who is rich, the one

00:31:35--> 00:32:19

who is free of need. And he Allah subhanaw taala is not in need of your sadaqa Allah is not in need of anybody. Rather everyone is in need of him while Elia Anisimova. To will out in South Africa is seven we learn that to Allah belong the treasures of the skies and the earth. So Allah is the One who is rich, and he can enrich the poor person just as he is enriched to you. So don't think highly of yourself. That if you are on the giving end, or you are the one who is sitting in the car, and the other person is, you know, standing outside in the heat begging, alright, they're on the receiving end, don't think too highly of yourself. This is not you. This is Allah subhanaw taala

00:32:19--> 00:33:04

disfavor on you, he is Lonnie. He is the one who enriched you. And he can also enrich the poor person, so don't belittle them. In fact, Allah subhanaw taala can give the poor person more than he has given you. So Allah is not in need of your charity. You don't think too highly of yourself, don't feel arrogant, that you are something big. So you give sadaqa and then you hurt the person whom you are giving sadaqa to realize that when you give charity, it actually benefits you. So there is no need to remind others of the charity that you have given them. And Allah is Helene Halima is from the root letters Harlem meme, and Helen is to not punish right away or to not show anger

00:33:04--> 00:33:53

immediately. So for example, someone does something wrong. Okay. And yes, they deserve, you know, some consequences. They deserve to be scolded, you know, to be disciplined. But Hannum is that you control yourself? All right, and you're not impulsive? You're not reactionary. Okay, you don't show anger immediately. And helm is a very important quality, especially for parents. Okay. And especially if you are, you know, dealing with someone who is constantly you know, making mistakes or who does not care about the rules, then you have to show him because Allah azza wa jal is Halim. So we should also show help. And look at how beautiful these names are over here, that Allah subhanaw

00:33:53--> 00:34:46

taala does not punish you right away when you do something wrong. So why are you being so punishing with the poor? If they ask you two or three times and you get annoyed? Why do you have to cause her to them? You can just be quiet. Right? So Allah subhanaw taala does not harm you for your sins for your wrong deeds immediately. Right He gives you time so that you realize you repent. So you should also protect the poor those in need those who are asking you from your harm. So Hola Hola, Nia and Helene. Allah is free of need and he is forbearing. You see the names of Allah we look at them individually and we also look at the combinations. So here honey and Halima coming together, that

00:34:46--> 00:35:00
