Youssra Kamel Kandil – October 19 2024

We're always sacrificing in this dunya for one

thing or the other, right?

We give up from our time, from our

health, from our sleep, from our energy, from

our effort, from our knowledge to achieve certain

goals, right?

We want to get this degree, we want

to get this house, we want to marry

this person, we want to, I don't know,

travel where, we want to raise our kids,

whatever, put them in whatever school, so we

sacrifice and these are all great and noble

and amazing goals and they're halal and permissible,

mashaAllah, but the problem is when we get

overly consumed in achieving these goals that are

temporary, by the way, they're not everlasting and

we forget what we should be really focused

on sacrificing for.

Yes, sacrifice for these things, but there's a

much important or more important, sorry, much more

important mission that we're trying to get to

and that is Jannah, eternity in Jannah.

Make sure when you're putting all that effort

that it's not only going to worldly goals,

but also for what is really worthy of

sacrificing for.

What is more worthy than Jannah, right?

Whenever you give up something next time, ask

yourself, is it really worth my time that

I'm giving up?

Is it worth my energy?

Is it worth my money, right?

It's so important that we don't just get

consumed in sacrificing for things without knowing what

their real worth is in the eyes of

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

Sacrifice for what is worthy of your sacrifice.

As-salamu alaykum.
