00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			Wa Ta-A'la puts someone in your
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			path who's in need That you are the
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:12
			cause of this person's sustenance Absolutely not This
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:15
			person with you or without you is going
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			to receive their sustenance from Allah Subh'anaHu
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			Wa Ta-A'la But the person who
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			really is receiving the sustenance at that moment
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

			already destined with us without us.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			Allah sustains everybody but to be given the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:47
			ability to help others That is a beautiful
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			form of sustenance that so many times we
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			think that we are the ones giving when
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			we are the actual receivers Something that we
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			don't acknowledge as a blessing from Allah Subh
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la or thank him
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:03
			enough for Allahumma lakal hamd for the sustenance
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			of being given opportunities to help others Even
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			if it was something minimal
