everything they once woman around, Hirata wasaga hassayampa. But whoever wants the next world, and
whoever strives for the next world while they believe that is the one who's striving shall be

beautiful verse, Allah reminds us, this world is beautiful allemaal wealth albourne own family. It's
beautiful. It's nice, there's nothing wrong with it. But if you intend that to be your ultimate

			Allah will give him this world and the next world and that is the beauty of our faith. It is not
wrong to want to live a good life, but the priority, our intentions, our goal should be the next
life. And when we intend the next life, we get this world as well. Rob banner artina fit Jr. has

the good of the next world and we want you to save us from the punishment of the Fire in a hadith in
the Sunnah of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Whoever made this world, his goal,
listen to this Hadith, whoever made this dunya his goal, this dunya shall never be given to him. He

mean in poverty? It means he's always going to be greedy for more when he has a million he wanted 10
million when he has 10 million he wants 100 million. He shall always live running after the dream of
this world. And the prophet SAW Some said and he will be seen his poverty will be seen in front of

come to you, even though you don't have to run after it. And the prophet SAW Selim said, his
happiness, his richness shall not be in his bank account, because it's not the bank account that
makes you rich. The richness shall be in his heart, he shall feel rich, he shall feel happy. So dear
Muslims, what is your priority? What is your intention? Why do you wake up in the morning what is

the price of you will get two for the price of one you will get this world you will be happy with
this world you will be content and you will get the ark era as well. And that's why Allah says well

much as you can to gain the rewards of the hereafter make the hereafter your priority change your
paradigm and think of life after that because that is going to be the eternal life. May Allah

the jaw is the weapon of the believer, he uses it to fight every enemy. Do AR is the weapon of the
believer. Raise your hands to Allah subhana wa tada every time you feel defenseless. Raise your
hands to Allah and ask for every single need of this world. Never, ever be embarrassed or ashamed to
ask from Allah subhanho wa Taala our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, there is nothing that

something in return either what he wants or another blessing that is equivalent to what he asked for
the Sahaba said, O Messenger of Allah. If this is the case, then we shall ask a lot and ask a lot

the action of so called
