			Last pantherella tells us a che plan or URI do como fakra Where Moodle Conville fascia a shaitana de
shaitan URI do calm he threatens you Alpha Accra of poverty. Your Edo is from the root letter as
well or in dal. And this can be from the word word which is promise and it can also be from the word
worried which is a threat. Okay. And typically word promise is for hate for something good and
worried morning is against something that is shoved against something that is evil. So shaitan
threatens you. This is worried Okay any shaitan threatens you puts you in fear of fuckery fucker is
poverty when a person is poor, any has nothing. Social icon puts you in fear that if you give sadaqa
		
00:00:50 --> 00:01:43
			or if you give from the time that you have or you give from the harvest, okay, of your garden, then
what's going to happen? We you will become poor, a Shangela no URI the goal fucker, if you think
about it, zakaat Okay, is how much 2.5% All right, 2.5% only, it's a very small percentage of your
wealth. Okay, if we are taught in the previous slide to give sadaqa from the harvest from our Halal
earnings, we're not required to give everything you know, for example, you have harvested an entire
basket of cucumbers, okay? You don't have to give everything you can give to you can give three, you
can give five, all right, you have a whole lot of chilies, you don't have to give all of them you
		
00:01:43 --> 00:02:32
			can give just a handful. But look at Shavon Shavon threatens you that you will become poor, you will
have nothing left for yourself you will go hungry, you will not have enough if you give in sadaqa
and this is a complete lie. Because you do not become poor by giving the cat by giving sadaqa you
don't become focus by giving because you're not giving everything anyway you're only giving a small
percentage. So you will not become needy. You know for instance you have food in your refrigerator.
You have two dishes, one you give Shaitan puts you in fear that you will become Fakir you will have
nothing for yourself and that is a complete lie because Masha Allah, Masha Allah, you have a lot,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:03:19
			you still have one dish that is prepared. And if that runs out, you have a freezer that has food in
it. You have a pantry that has food in it, you have other ingredients in your kitchen, you have
money in your bank, you're gonna go for groceries tomorrow, you are able to get more so Shaitan puts
us in fear when we're thinking about giving sadaqa and be aware of this, that shaitan will threaten
you shaitan will make you afraid, but don't believe the lies of shaitan and then what does shaitan
do were Mortal Kombat fascia. He orders you He commands you Hamza, meanwhile, to do fascia fascia is
immorality, for her sheen. So on the one hand, he tells us not to give all right, and on the other
		
00:03:19 --> 00:04:18
			hand, he tells us to do what is bad. Now the word fascia means many different things, depending on
the context, in general, the word fascia includes all moral sleep, all types of sins, and in
specific cases fascia can mean Zina. Okay, fornication, it can also mean homosexuality, it can also
mean other such actions of lewd nature, this is from shaitan and this is fascia. Likewise fascia can
also refer to indecent acts such as verbal abuse, foul language. In some situations, it can also
mean stinginess here fair shout means all sins. Okay, so yet Mortal Kombat fascia che Pon tells you
to do what is immoral to do what is outrageous, what is clearly clearly wrong. How, think about
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:59
			this, on the one hand shaitan is telling you don't give because you will become poor. Okay, and then
he tells you to do fascia. So because you feel guilty, you must give something. So then he tells you
to give what is rotten, to give what is spoiled, to give what is broken, to give what you will never
receive yourself. Okay, what you would never like for yourself. So that is fascia choosing the
Hadith, giving the Hadith that is far shot. Okay, secondly, for shout over here can also mean
stinginess. All right. The Chapin commands you. He orders you to be stingy to be selfish to only
look up
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:45
			for yourself to put yourself first and last year Mortal Kombat fascia to not think about others to
just think about yourself. Likewise, fascia over here can also refer to harshness and verbal abuse
and insults. That shaytaan threatens you with poverty, like someone comes asking you for something
Associaton tells you don't give, don't give, you won't have enough for yourself. And now, the poor
person asks for the second time, and now you just go off at them, you start insulting them, you
start humiliating them, you start yelling at them speaking harshly to them. So this is also fresh
up. Okay, fascia over here can also refer to wasting your money, for example, you will have just
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:34
			earned money. Okay, let's say you just earned a paycheck. And now you have all this money with
yourself, Allah subhanaw taala tells you spend out of what We have given you spend out of what you
have earned. Okay, so now you have let's say $5,000 That you just earned, or $10,000 that you just
received through inheritance, or a gift. Okay? Now shaitan tells you don't give because you will
become poor. And this is a lie. Because if you were to give 200 500,000 out of that you're not going
to become poor. Okay? But shaitan tells you don't give, be stingy, be selfish. Put yourself first
and last. Alright, don't give now the money that you have with you, what are you going to do with it
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:57
			shaitan tells you whispers to you that you buy things that you have always desired. Perhaps it's a
very expensive thing that you can finally buy now, because you have the money and now that expensive
thing you carry around and you show off you carry around to be seen by others. So, now what this is
for shop
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:48
			or now you get to buy that expensive dress, which you can walk in with pride with arrogance or you
are being wasteful now, so you buy a dessert for like $40 Because you got the cash, you got the
money, all right. Or now you buy so many things, for instance as a woman, and yes, we are allowed to
we are encouraged to beautify ourselves as we like. However, there are some guidelines, you know,
for instance, we should not do the Baton Rouge the Baton Rouge is to go out of one's house to garner
the attention of others, while one has completely beautified themselves. Right? So now a woman is
you know dressing up like that going out like that. In order to get the attention of others this is
		
00:07:48 --> 00:08:39
			pleasing to who this is all pleasing to shaitan this is all fascia wear Moroccan Bill fascia. So be
very aware that Chapin doesn't just tell you to speak in a way that is displeasing to Allah shaitan
also tells you to use your wealth in a way that is displeasing to Allah, He Moroccan Bill fascia, be
aware, don't let shade upon interfere with your wealth. Your wealth is a huge gift to you from
Allah, something through which you can earn the home of the Hereafter something through which you
can earn the approval of Allah something through which you can bring delight and relief to so many
people ease to so many people. Don't let shaitan use your wealth as a tool of sin as a tool of
		
00:08:39 --> 00:09:21
			immorality. Don't let shaitan have a share of your wealth. So be aware. And you know, when you
develop the habit of giving sadaqa and you find joy by giving others, then you know what happens?
When you earn something, the first thing you think of is what good thing can you do with your
wealth? And the moment that one tries to give you you know, vice versa, you say no, I have to give
and you give it and Allah subhanaw taala saves you from fascia from indecent immoral actions, like
showing off being wasteful, you know, walking with pride, and things like that. So a shaytani R
ecoman fakra were Mortal Kombat fascia. You know, sometimes the whispers of shaitaan are very
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:59
			interesting. Shaitan will say things like, you know, you deserve your money. You deserve to keep
what you have. You have worked very hard to acquire it. Or this might be your only chance. Who knows
what if you don't earn anything like this ever again. Let's say you get a bonus at work. And now
shaitan will tell you like what if this is the last and final bonus you ever receive in your
lifetime? If you give it an sadaqa your where how will you earn money again like this, alright,
there is no need to give so much. You know, for example you intend to give $10 shaitaan will tell
you what is enough
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:44
			Do you intend to give 100 Shaitan will tell you 10 is enough. So sometimes you don't you have these
thoughts go against them. For example, you intend to give 100 And shaitan puts in your heart, you
know, give 50 No, now add 50 More give 150 If Allah subhanaw taala has given you more, give
something more, why, because you want to break the influence of shaitan on you remember that sadaqa
is very hard on shaitan very heavy on shaitan we learn in a hadith that when a person goes out to
give sadaqa he breaks the jaws of 70 devils, and he it's like shaytaan after shaitan after shaitan
who is trying to hinder you trying to stop you from giving sadaqa So, when you actually go and give
		
00:10:44 --> 00:11:26
			it you have broken the jaws of 70 Devils, this is how you break the power the influence of shaitan
on you that you go and give her the cut anyway, why does shaitan prevent you from giving so the
topic of sadaqa is very very beneficial, it is very rewardable we have learned from the examples
right how sadaqa can bring so much reward. So of course had gone does not want you to earn that
reward. Because of sadaqa Your sins are removed you earn forgiveness you draw closer to Allah you
will have shade on the Day of Judgment shaitan does not want you to have that will love who URI do
Kumar FIRA to men who are fog Allah will Allah Who URI to come and Allah promises you of what
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:31
			forgiveness mofetil men who from Himself will funnelin and more.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:12:19
			Okay, this is what Allah subhanaw taala promises you. So what is the promise of shaitan? The threat,
the empty threats, the lies of shaitan and the other are true promises of Allah woman us the coming
Allah healer. In Allah Allah you Fluffle mirrored right Allah does not go against his promise. So
Allah promises you forgiveness. What is mofetil? Lane fala is the route mofetil is awful and sutras
are awful pardon, and cetera to conceal. So this is when Allah subhanaw taala pardons the sins of a
slave and also concealed them Subhanallah and are we not in need of our sins being concealed? Any?
Sometimes if you recall, you think about your sins, the kinds of things, you know, maybe that you
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:29
			said or what you did, how you behaved. Just recalling those events in your mind is so embarrassing.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:13:20
			How could I stoop to that level? What was I thinking? When I said that? What was I thinking when I
did that? He our sins are so ugly, that thinking about them is embarrassing, recalling them is
upsetting. So we are in need that our sins are concealed concealed from us. So we never have to see
them. All right, we don't repeat them. We don't have to see their ugly consequences. We are not
reminded of our sins, we are in desperate need of molfetta. And we also need pardon forgiveness.
Right so mafia has two things to pardon and conceal. And Allah subhanaw taala will say to the
believer on the day of judgment that I conceal your sins for you and today I forgive them and I
		
00:13:20 --> 00:14:10
			completely remove them from you. You will not be held responsible you will not be held punishable.
They are removed from you and they're concealed. So Allah subhanaw taala will preserve the dignity
of the believer also will Allah Who URI Docomo Farah, but this Mo Farah is promised when when you
give sadaqa so if your sins bother you, this is a huge lesson for us if your sins bother you, if
they embarrass you, thinking about your sins is very upsetting to you. You want to move away from
them you want to just bury them in your past and you just wish that they could be erased. Then give
Sadaqa Allahu yeri the Kumar filata, Minho and Minho from him. What is from Allah is huge, huge. So
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:58
			yes, the sin that you committed huge okay, but Allah subhanaw taala this forgiveness is even greater
than that, even greater. So with hope and with regret, okay with both feelings, give sadaqa seek
forgiveness from Allah subhanaw taala and also give sadaqa to earn forgiveness from Allah for your
sins. And Allah subhanaw taala also promises you what fuddle fuggle is zyada more increase and this
is referring to reward, right favor and he Allah subhanaw taala also promises you more in return.
What this means is that when you give sadaqa Allah subhanaw taala promises you a return in this
world, right usually for who Allah's parents are I will compensate it for you here. So yes, you
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			earned a bonus
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:40
			You give sadaqa from it, Allah promises you even more, don't despair that you will never get a
chance like that ever again. No, Allah is a result, not your job, right not your paycheck not your
boss. It's Allah subhanaw taala, who gives you so Allah subhanaw taala is able to give you even more
than what you're giving right now, even more than what you received in your annual income, or in
your annual bonus, Allah subhanaw taala is able to give you even more. And you will experience this
in your life when you continue to give sadaqa Allah subhanaw taala continues to bless you continues
to give you so keep giving and keep receiving, you know the wealth that Allah gives us is not for us
		
00:15:40 --> 00:16:24
			to keep. Because if we keep it any what's the point, we have to part from this wealth sooner or
later, either that wealth will go away from us, right or we will have to leave it when we die. So we
are not going to keep our wealth with us forever. Anyway, the wealth that Allah gives us as a tool
that use this wealth to earn the home of the Hereafter. So give, give it an earn reward, Allah will
give you more, and then you give that and earn more reward continue to give will law we are the CO
Muffuletta men who have hodler and the struggle is not just in dunya it's also in the Hereafter. And
we have learned many verses before. Like for example in terms of Bukhara 245 That mandala the Euclid
		
00:16:24 --> 00:17:11
			Allah told and Hassan for you Laurie for hula who adore often cathedral. This is how your money will
grow. When you give, not when you hoard, when you hoard your wealth, when you keep it it will
decrease in its value in its worth. It its blessing will Allah who is here and Arlene, and Allah is
all encompassing he is ever knowing. Allah is Wes here. What does this mean over here in the context
that whatever you spend, whatever you give Allah is Ozar. Allah subhanaw taala is more vast and he's
able to give you way more than that in return than what you gave. And Allah is Aileen, he's knowing
he knows the one who gives for the pleasure of Allah and the one who gives for the pleasure of
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:58
			people. Allah is our Liam he knows the one who gives from the Ube and the one who gives from Hobbes,
Allah knows the one who intends the pleasure of Allah, the face of Allah and the one who does not
intend that Allah subhanaw taala knows everything, nothing is hidden from him. So believe in the
promise of Allah. Allah fulfilled his promise and give generously give without fear of poverty, and
don't believe the lies of shaytaan will Allah who is here and Arlene, then Allah's pantalla tells
us, you deal HC Mata mania SHA U T, he gives meaning Allah subhanaw taala gives an Hekmati the
wisdom may Usher to whomever that He wills. Well, may you tell Hekmatyar and whoever is given the
		
00:17:58 --> 00:19:02
			Wisdom fucka the OTO hyaluron Kathira then in fact he has been given a lot of good okay, Allah gives
wisdom to whomever He wills. What is wisdom, wisdom hikma from the root letters haircalf meme hecho
means one through Che E Fi mulberry He Allah be you need to put something in its right place okay,
which is fitting place that is appropriate for it. Okay. Hikmah does not mean just to do what is
right. Rather it means to do what is right, in a way that is right. At the time that is right. In
the place. That is right. Okay. For example, a child misbehaves. Okay. A child misbehaves, does
something clearly wrong? What does the child deserve to be disciplined? Right? Now there is a place
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:48
			where the child should be disciplined for what they did. And a place where the child should not be
disciplined for what they did in a situation where the child should be disciplined for what they
did. And another situation where the child should not be disciplined for what they did. What is the
situation where the child should be disciplined? The child is 12 years old, or let's say 13 years
old. All right, and they deliberately, knowingly, foolishly launch their hand towards you and crash
you on your arm. So you're gonna say something that this is not appropriate. You need to be careful,
because you have scratched my arm and it hurts, right? You're going to teach the child through
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:59
			whatever way you think is appropriate that this is not correct. You cannot be physically violent.
All right, the same thing a four month old child does with their sharp nails.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:46
			They swing their arms and they scratch you. I remember one lady, I saw that, you know, there was a
big bandage on her eye. And I was like what happened? Like her entire aisle was covered. And she
told me that her baby swung his arm in such a way that his nails basically scratched the inside of
her eye, the inside of her eye SubhanAllah. And she needed like a small procedure for that, you
know, in order to get it fixed. Now, will you discipline the baby? That this is not how you should
be swinging your arms? This is not right. You know, you need to have some level of self control.
This is hurtful. No, you're not going to say anything. You're not going to discipline the child,
		
00:20:46 --> 00:21:30
			because it's unwise to do so. Are you going to yell at the child? No. If you do that you're going to
frighten the child. Right? So what teaches you that in one situation you should discipline the child
and another situation you will not discipline the child what teaches you it is common sense? Right,
it's common sense. And this sense is hikma. Now, Allah is the One who gives hikma to whomever He
wills. Why is this mentioned over here? Because in the context of sadaqa, some people are very wise,
mashallah they know what to give, when to give, how to give how much to give, and like that they
continue to give in the way of Allah and they earn so much reward. They know how to manage their
		
00:21:30 --> 00:22:08
			wealth. So for example, they have food, they know what to give, how much they can give, when they
can give, and they keep giving, no food gets spoiled. Everything gets used on time, everything gets
enjoyed. And some people they don't have to the food just keeps sitting, sitting sitting. And they
keep thinking I'll eat it. I'll eat it. I'll eat it. I'll use it. Nothing gets used. Everything goes
waste. What's missing over here, hikma? So Allah gives Hikmah to whomever he wills will. May you
tell hikma and whoever is given hikma to make the right decision at the right time to give in the
right way at the right time. fficult oto Hiram Kathira is given a lot of good because such a person
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:54
			can accumulate so much reward so much. When I get the Kuru Illa Allah Al Bab and Nam takes heed
except those who have intellect he and the Kuru from dal Kavre that occur, to bear in mind to
remember to take a lesson will allow those who have intellect, any it is only such people who will
understand this lesson and who will remember it and who will be able to act upon it and give sadaqa
spend in the way of Allah wisely. What does this teach us? This teaches us that we should ask ALLAH
SubhanA wa Tada to grant us Hikmah in managing our wealth, so that we can use our wealth we can
enjoy it ourselves and we can also benefit others through it. In Hadees, we learn that the Prophet
		
00:22:54 --> 00:23:43
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Allah has said that elaphiti and attain, there is no jealousy,
permissible except in two situations. And one situation is regarding a man any whom you can be
envious off is the man whom Allah gives wealth to and then he spends it in righteous ways. For Salah
who Allah halacha T Philhealth. And he spends his wealth why in right in good ways. And so he earned
so much reward. There is a huge difference between those who spend and those who don't. Those who
spend at the right place and those who don't, you know, for example, some people if they have $100,
they will go and, you know, get so much done with that money, and other people, the same $100 that
		
00:23:43 --> 00:24:31
			will hardly get anything done. For them. $100 is loose change. For some people, it's a huge
treasure. They can earn so much with that benefit themselves benefit others. So, pray for hikma ask
Allah subhanaw taala to give you wisdom to use your money wisely. Now some random I say that hikmah
is a fickle filled Quran to understand the Quran. Some say hikma is fake for Deen to understand the
deen to have not just knowledge but understanding of religion. Because when you understand it
properly, then you're able to follow it. Right? You know, some people know many rules of Islam, but
they don't know what is the right place of applying that knowledge. For instance, some people they
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:59
			know the idea of certain Nyssa methanol was to Latha robar right that a man can marry up to 234
wives. All right. And they will use this idea all the time. Some men love this idea. They will use
it to you know keep their wife insecure in the marriage, whatever. They will use this aisle all the
time. Yes, this is in the Quran. Absolutely.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:47
			Allah subhanaw taala has revealed it as part of his law. But there is a place where you should
mention this idea. All right, and a place where you should not mention it because it's not relevant,
and it would actually cause more harm. If you think about it so many people, especially among women,
why are they so distant from the Dean because a lot of times the verses of the Quran are used
against them, to hurt them, so they become more and more distant. This is very, very unwise, that
you use verses of Allah as a weapon, to control someone, or to humiliate someone, or to show them
that you're doing a favor to them. This is very unwise, a person can have the entire Quran
		
00:25:47 --> 00:26:33
			memorized. They can have a degree in Islamic knowledge in Islamic law, but if they lack the wisdom,
all right, that they should mention an IRA in one place and not in another place, then all of that
knowledge is useless to them. So even our basketball de la Mourinho said that Hickman is unfit
Caulfield Quran to understand the Quran, Imam Malik said that Hickman is fit for Dean to understand
the religion and it is with Che on yuck the philosophy of Colville. It is something which Allah puts
in the heart of the slave because of which the slave makes the right decision, or the slave has the
fear of Allah, or the slave has the willingness to do something good. In this is something that
		
00:26:33 --> 00:27:19
			Allah puts in the heart of the slave. So ask Allah for hikma, that out of the fear of Allah, or out
of willingness to obey Allah and remembering the right thing at the right time. You make a good
decision, because of which you earn so much reward. Ask Allah subhanaw taala to give you hikma, then
Allah subhanaw taala says Wilmar and PHIPA to me NIFA Katin owner to me netrin For in the La Jolla
Alamo. And wherever you spend our expenditures or make our vows then indeed Allah knows of it was my
little boy, aluminium and unsought and for the wrongdoers. There are no helpers. Now, a lot of times
we tell ourselves that, oh, I cannot afford to give sadaqa because I don't know where my money goes,
		
00:27:19 --> 00:28:09
			I don't have enough. Okay. And then you find out about someone else who makes very little money
compared to you. But they are able to give sadaqa right? What's the difference? One is wise in their
spending and the other is not, or one is wasteful, and the other is not. Okay. So it's very
important that before we say things like, Oh, I'm sorry, I can't give. I'm sorry, I don't have
enough. I'm sorry, I can't donate, etcetera. Before we say things like that, or before we decide
such things for ourselves. We take account of where our money goes, Okay, where is our money going?
So Allah subhanaw taala tells us, he informs us of his complete knowledge that Matt and factum
		
00:28:09 --> 00:29:06
			enough AKA, whatever you spend off Neph aka NEFA is expenditure meaning something that is spent.
Okay. So whatever you spent anything at all, Allah subhanaw taala knows about it. So anything that
you spend on coffee, on a screen, on groceries, on clothes, on parking, on gas, your subscriptions,
whether it is Netflix or Apple Music, Audible, anything you spend, Amazon, shipping, taxes, tuition,
your visa bill, anything you spend, whether it is a small enough aka meaning a few dollars you spend
or a big enough aka and he a huge amount of money you're spending, okay? Whether you spend publicly
or privately, whether you spend in a way that is traceable a traceable transaction. So let's say you
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:56
			use your card so it's in your record, or you do so in a way that is not traceable under the table
cash, okay, you spend in a good cause, or you spend in a permissible cause or you spend in a sinful
cause. You spend for the sake of Allah or you spend in order to be seen by others. No matter what
you spend, Allah knows about it. Not only does Allah know what you're giving, but he also knows the
reason behind why you're giving and the state of your heart when you're giving. Why your intention
for in the law, your Allahu Allah knows where your money is going. And this is two things we have
been told about this for two reasons. On the one hand, this is a word, a Promise of Allah, that when
		
00:29:56 --> 00:30:00
			you give in charity, so for example, you give $5
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:48
			Whereas here, $2 here, $10 There $100 There $50 Here, you are not able to keep count or keep track
of where you are giving in sadaqa, where you are giving for the sake of Allah. But Allah subhanaw
taala knows every single to the code that you have given. And this is also a threat, a warning that
Allah knows where you are spending your money, where is it going? Is it that you are spending on
permissible things, or forbidden things, or you are wasting your money, Allah knows about it. So be
careful, be wise. Because on the Day of Judgment, we will be asked how we acquired our wealth and
how we spent it where it went. So, you know, sometimes sit, take a few moments and look at your
		
00:30:48 --> 00:31:37
			account history, for instance, look at your visa bill, for example, or whatever it is, look at it,
and ask yourself, Is this necessary? Do I really need this subscription? Can I live without it? Do I
really need to purchase this, to buy this to spend on this? Do I really have to, and you know, train
yourself to spend less on your desires. Okay? So for example, having a certain subscription could be
a complete desire, alright? or unnecessary, you can easily live without it, try to live without it
for two, three months, and then see if it's of benefit to you. Or if it's actually, you know,
causing some problem. So check yourself, this doesn't mean that you should be stingy, you should be
		
00:31:37 --> 00:32:27
			very stingy with your wealth. No, you should be careful with your wealth. Because you see, if you're
spending, for example, $5 on a subscription that you hardly use, whatever that subscription, maybe
$5 Every month, yes, $5 in a month is nothing, maybe it's nothing for you. But over the course of
the year, how much is $5 a month? How much is $10 a month? Right? How much is $12 a month, it adds
up? It adds up that same money you could be giving to an orphan child, right? So that that orphan
child has access to clean food or to education. So look at your spending habits, look at your money,
where is it going? How is it disappearing? Why is there no Baraka? Why is it that you're not able to
		
00:32:27 --> 00:33:10
			spend in the way of Allah? Why is it that even though you have a consistent stable source of income,
a good source of income, you're not able to save up enough to go for Umrah or to go for Hajj or to
spend in good causes. That's because the money is just dwindling away. It's evaporating. All right,
in unnecessary things. So warmer and factum in NEFA cuttin. Any spending that you spend, Allah knows
about it for in the lie, Arlo, Allah knows about it. So this is a warning. And it's also a promise
of reward. That Don't worry, Allah has not forgotten it. Allah has not ignored it, Allah has kept
count of it. And not just NEFA but also near the owner, the ultimate netrin or any vow that you
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:21
			make. Now when it comes to Nadal, to Nether Nether, as we learned earlier, is to obligate on oneself
what is not obligatory exam enough see my lions,
		
00:33:22 --> 00:34:13
			okay? Where, for example, a person swears by Allah and says that they're going to give a certain
amount of sadaqa Are they required to give that sadaqa? Is it a must? Any Allah subhanaw taala has
not imposed on you that you give 10% of your paycheck every month, this is not filed. This is not
last him, but you make an oath and make it last him on yourself. All right. So this is another and
remember that nother vows is of different kinds, there's vows that are good. And this is called
another tab or another bar where you vow to do something good in order to draw closer to Allah. So
for example, you swear an oath that you will give 10% of your upcoming check. Okay, paycheck in the
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:57
			way of Allah. All right, for a certain cause. Why do you make that vow to make sure that you
actually give the 10% because if you don't make that vow, what's going to happen? That money is just
going to disappear. It's going to go in coffee and ice cream and, you know, random things. So, this
kind of a vow, if you make, you must fulfill. Okay, and it's actually good to do this, because Allah
subhanaw taala told us and so little insan that the abroad the righteous are those who you phone up
in Nedry those who fulfill their vows. So, you know, if a person pledges money like this, this is
another there is a fundraiser. All right, and you pledge to give $100 a month for the next year.
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:59
			Okay, or you pledge
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:45
			To give $50,000 you pledged to give $100,000 All right, especially when you take the name of Allah,
all right that by Allah lillahi, Aliya Nether, or Wallahi, this is an oath and it must be fulfilled.
And even our basketball, the Longhorn, who said that if a person makes a vow, which they are unable
to fulfill, okay, so for example, a person makes a vow that they will fast every other day. Okay,
and now they're fasting every other day. But what happens, they get sick, and they find out that
they have diabetes, they're no longer able to fast, it's not possible for them to fast. So then they
have to break the oath and give the Kafala but if a person is able to fulfill the vow, then they
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:58
			must fulfill it, they're not allowed to break the oath. Okay? Then remember there is olds that are
permissible, that are MOBA. So for example, a person says, I swear by Allah, I will not eat this
food.
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:43
			Okay, it's permissible for you to do that. Okay? Because it's not followed on you to eat, let's say
chocolate. Okay, but to train yourself, or to limit your chocolate intake, you say, I swear by
Allah, I will not eat chocolate for the next month. So now what now you're stuck. You cannot eat
chocolate. But for such a while you don't get a sin, and you don't get a reward. Okay, now, you can
fulfill this vow. And if you want if it's becoming difficult, alright, let's say your spouse gives
you chocolate now and they want you to eat it with them. They brought some nice truffles. And now,
you know, they expect that both of you will sit with hot chocolate and those chocolate truffles and
		
00:36:43 --> 00:37:23
			you're not eating and they want you to eat you can break them. Okay, and you can give the Kafala
sorry, you're gonna have to, you know, break that vow, you can you have the option, and you're not
sinful. In that case. In a hadith we learned that once the Prophet sallallahu oralism saw a man
standing in the sun and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam asked Who is he who the people said this is a
Buddhist Surah Eve that was his cornea. And he has vowed that he will stand and not sit that he will
remain in the sun and never be in shade, that He will not speak and that he will fast. Okay, so the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, tell him to sit and tell him to go in the shade and tell
		
00:37:23 --> 00:38:09
			him to speak and tell him to complete his fast. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam told him to
complete his another thorough the vow of obedience, but the other permissible things he told him
that you know, the break the oath. So, if it's creating difficulty for you, such a vow or creating
difficulty for others, then you should break the vow and the Kafala the explanation is the same of
breaking an oath. Thirdly, the third type of another is that which is disliked mcru Okay, and this
type of vow is a conditional vow. So for example, a person says you're Rob, if you heal me, if you
give me healing through this treatment, I will give $5,000 in South Africa, if I pass this exam, I
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:57
			will pray 111 Okay. Now this type of Nether is actually Makau it is disliked, and some orlimar say
that it is actually haram it is forbidden. Okay. Why? Because as the slaves of Allah, we shouldn't
be striking deals with God, that, you know, if you give me this, I will do this. No, this is very
disrespectful. You make such deals with someone who is equal to you, not your master, not your Lord,
not horrible. Allah mean, he's not equal to you. So you don't have the right to make such deals with
Allah. Allah is not in need of our obedience we should go to Allah as beggars, right without setting
conditions. So you want healing? give sadaqa anyway, you want to pass your exam? give sadaqa anyway
		
00:38:57 --> 00:39:49
			pray. No, I feel anyway. All right. Then the fourth type of Nether is that which is haram prohibited
and that is another Marcia. Okay. a vow of disobedience. So for example, a person says, I swear by
Allah, I'm never going to pray. I swear by Allah never going to fast this kind of another should not
be fulfilled. Okay. Rather it is obligatory on a person to break that oath to break that vow and
give the Kafala okay, can follow to the Amin, so four types of valves, four types of method, the
first type of No, that is no that was the hub. Another that is good, it is preferable. And this is
neither thorough, meaning a vow of obedience. All right, that a person obligates something righteous
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:59
			on himself, why in order to draw closer to Allah, and this is good because the vow forces you to
actually do it because
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:44
			What happens you know, you are expecting some money next month and you think okay you know I can
give this much money in charity, but then what happens when the money actually comes in your hand
you forget about this other, you know, there's other things that become more important to you. So,
when you have taken an oath, then what will happen you will definitely given sadaqa So, this type of
vow must be fulfilled and it should only be broken if a person is incapable of fulfilling it okay.
And in that case, they will give the Kafala The second type of vow is that which is permissible and
this is neither a sin nor obedience the person can fulfill it, they will not be rewarded, a person
		
00:40:44 --> 00:41:32
			can not fulfill it and give the Kafala and they will not acquire any sin. So, if it is not causing
any inconvenience to you or to those around you, you can fulfill it and if it is causing
inconvenience to you or to others, then you should break it and give the kuffar okay. The third type
of Nether is that which is disliked. Okay and that is the conditional Nether where a person sets a
condition with God that God if you do this for me, I swear I will do that for you. This is disliked.
And in Hades, we learned that it doesn't really, you know, bring anything to a person, it just
brings something out of the stingy person. Okay. And the fourth type of Nether is that which is
		
00:41:32 --> 00:42:19
			prohibited, which is when a person vows to do something of disobedience to Allah, and this should
not be fulfilled. The Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Whoever vows to obey Allah let him obey Allah
and whoever vows to disobey Allah let him not disobey Allah, any, now you have to break the vow. And
you have to give the Kafala and the Kafala, the explanation is the same as that of breaking an oath.
So for in Allahu Yharnam, or Allah subhanaw taala knows it, he knows what you spend where your money
goes, he knows the vows you make, and whether you fulfill them or not. And in the case where you
have to break your vow, Allah knows if you have given the Kafala or not, people may not know they're
		
00:42:19 --> 00:43:05
			not going to hold you responsible. Right? There is no legal system to hold you responsible for your
vows. This is a matter between you and Allah. So Allah knows about it. Well, my little glalie,
minim, and unsought and for those who do learn plural of the word la Lim, they have no helpers and
sought for another word Nasod or in a seat helper. So who are those who do wrong what is loaded over
here, little over here is spending for the purpose of the app to show off or spending and then
reminding of favors or lowdham Over here is making another making a vow and then not fulfilling it
or loaded over here can also be you know, wasting your money. Okay? So those who do wrong will have
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:53
			no helpers any no one can help them against Allah azza wa jal, Allah subhanaw taala knows what you
spend your personal leads on your desires and charity, He knows your intention. So when I did Wally,
minim, and unsought now some are Aloma, they say that this is also shows that the people who spend
in obedience to Allah, those who give in the Cause of Allah, then they are the ones who receive
Allah's help also. So another lesson we can learn from this is that if you want the help of Allah in
any matter, than give sadaqa, give sadaqa and receive Allah subhanaw taala is help, you know,
there's lessons that are directly taught. And then there are lessons that are indirectly taught
		
00:43:53 --> 00:44:39
			earlier, we learned an indirect lesson that if you have a sin, a past sin that is bothering you,
then give sadaqa right. And here, another lesson we learn is that if you want the help of Allah in
something, any matter, it could be in regard to your financial situation. It could be in regards to
your spouse, it could be in regard to your relationships, okay. Any matter that you're struggling
with, it could be in regard to your career, your work, mental health, anything physical health,
anything that you're struggling with, you want Allah subhanaw taala special help, then what should
you do? give sadaqa and how much are the clock? There's no amount that has been specified over here.
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:45
			That is up to you. How much help do you want from Allah give accordingly. All right.
