			When I talk to * addicts, I have noticed something in common. They all say that whenever we watch
* and we end up with * so that we can experience that instant pleasure, a phase
of darkness and heaviness, attack them right in the heart to an extent that they feel so difficult
to worship Allah subhanho wa Taala and this is the main issue with * addiction. It causes you
loneliness, depression, this is what * promises actually you you go to * because you
want it to experience that pleasure. But at the end, while I added Allah May Allah Subhana Allah
save us all. You experienced nothing but depression, anxiety and loneliness. Allah Subhana Allah
		
00:00:50 --> 00:01:33
			says in the Quran that whosoever does righteous deeds, whether a male and female while they are a
believer, a loss of the Hannah what Allah will grant you will give you a good life. That's the good
life. The Good Life is always revolving around worshipping Allah subhanaw taala and doing righteous
deeds. So when you seek pleasure in the wrong places, you experienced nothing but sadness and grief.
That's why the Prophet sallallahu Sallam used to supplicate a lot in the hour who Vika Menachem me
while hasn't or ally asked you protection, I asked you to protect me from grief and sadness because
the prophet SAW Selim realize that once you are in, in that state, you won't function properly, you
		
00:01:33 --> 00:02:10
			will not be able to go to Allah Subhana Allah praying, fasting, and performing all these acts of
worship while you have the right mind. And that's why my brothers and sisters in Islam, seeking
instant pleasure won't last for for a long time you will never be able to experience that
everlasting happiness after your demise so May Allah Subhana Allah grant us the right understanding.
So what you're going to do today in sha Allah Allah you're going to make a decision you remember
every episode we decided that we will execute certain actions otherwise if you don't act right after
understanding
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:51
			these concepts that we are discussing, you will never be able to create that positive change that we
are after. So what is the decision today? The decision is write it down. I will always do what it
takes to please Allah subhanho wa Taala instead of running after short term pleasures May Allah
Subhana Allah says this all and please if you haven't watched already the previous episodes we have
included all the links below so please like them, share them with others so that you may gain the
reward from Allah subhanaw taala and see you tomorrow with another episode title. Everybody's doing
