So now when it comes to labor Carter Welcome back to the faith revival. Today I just wanted to reflect on a saying from the Prophet sallallahu wasallam, which is very special if you just think about what we've been through thus far in this series, The Prophet sallallahu wasallam he says in the law, how to honor your man or woman, woman like you, him. Allah gives wealth to those that he loves and those that he doesn't love. Allah gives gives wealth to those that he loves and those that he doesn't love meeting the prophets license says that the possession of this world is so worthless in the sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala. He says the law and he was telling him that if this dunya

00:00:46--> 00:01:23

was worth to Allah subhanho wa Taala, the wing of a mosquito, then he would not let a disbeliever Have a sip of water from it. This world was even worth the Wink of a mosquito in the sight of a Lost Planet Allah he would not even let a disbeliever Have a sip of water from it, but a loss of time doesn't care for this world. So he lets the do he lets the dunya be given to whoever he wants the materialistic world. You know what take it. Can you imagine some hell on these people that curse Allah day and night people that do horrible things, and Allah still allows them to be provided from his sustenance. So Allah gives wealth to those that he loves and those that he does not love. But

00:01:23--> 00:02:04

the Prophet slicin um, says what you're including he Nana, in love, man you help. But a lot does not give faith except to those that he loves. So Allah gives wealth to those that he loves and those that he does not love. But Allah only gives faith to those that he loves. What does that mean? A loss of Hannah Montana is telling us that if he has given you a man, then he loves you. That's a that's an indication in and of itself. If I have even a small amount of faith in my heart, that's a sign that Allah Subhana Allah loves me. That's a sign that I've earned his love and I don't want to sacrifice that love. I don't want to give up that love from Allah subhanho wa Taala because it's

00:02:04--> 00:02:48

precious. The greatest gift he ever gave to me is this faith. And he gave it to me out of love. When someone gives you a gift out of love, then you treat that gift so much more sacred. And when you view your Iman as a personal gift from Allah subhanho wa Taala a gift that Allah gave you because he loves you, Allah delivered that he man to you out of love, what are you doing to guard that that precious possession that precious gift that symbolizes the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala to you? And what does abandonment of that gift truly mean? Now what this means is to pantalone you're talking about that imamo hunting for Rahim Allah has a very beautiful reflection on knowledge which

00:02:48--> 00:03:28

I'll transfer to faith as well. In our hunting for him a whole I used to thank Allah for them that he gave him used to thank Allah for the knowledge that he gave him. And of course true knowledge is faith, true knowledge is faith. And someone asked him why he always says have that allow for. And he said that Allah says in the Quran, Allah insha kabataan that as he then nickel, and if you are grateful, I will increase you. If you're grateful for something I will increase you. And from that the scholars derive that saying Alhamdulillah here and an email, whatever we have in there, and hamdulillah here on a narrated email will Kapha be as attributed to some of the pious predecessors,

00:03:29--> 00:04:09

all praises and thanks to Allah for the blessing of a man. And that's enough of a blessing. And hamdulillah here on the narrative email, what if we have a new meaning if Allah gave, if a lot chose not to give me anything else, but he gave me a man that in and of itself is a great blessing from Allah subhanaw taala and I'm satisfied and I'm grateful, and I'm pleased with it. And not only that, if I thank Allah for the blessing of that man, than Allah will increase me in enough in sha Allah to Allah. So let's thank Allah for that amount and let's ask Allah for his love May Allah subhanho wa Taala love us And may Allah make us amongst those who are beloved to those that love him and may

00:04:09--> 00:04:20

Allah put in our hearts the love of those that are beloved to him and the love of any action that brings us closer to his love allama mean, does that mean lol hate on See you all next time in sha Allah said I want you to lie
