The Shocking Truth About Rizq Most Muslims Don’t Know! 0:00
This is everything. You have to
0:02
understand how to develop the
0:03
relationship with other than Allah.
0:05
There there’s a way there’s a way to
0:07
deal with these things and we have to
0:08
understand them. So the first thing is
0:09
we have to sever our attachment the
0:12
heart’s attachment to to creation. Okay.
0:15
So now if we develop conviction on
0:18
Allah’s name there’s one name that if
0:21
you develop conviction on this name then
0:23
you bring conviction on all of Allah’s
0:26
names. What is it? Alad literally the
0:29
one who is able to the all powerful
0:33
there’s nothing he cannot do Allah
0:35
subhana wa ta’ala is a version in the
0:37
context of the sentence you want
0:42
Allah is able to do everything nothing
0:45
limits Allah subhana wa ta’ala why
0:48
because if you bring conviction that
0:50
nothing limits Allah then you can he is
0:54
with all his other names take any name
0:58
[Music]
1:02
nothing limits him. Okay. So we have to
1:04
develop conviction on the name
1:07
conviction that Allah is truly so that
1:10
we bring conviction automatically on all
1:13
other names cuz if he’s then he’s to do
1:15
all these other things all of the 99
1:17
names of Allah but it’s not enough.
1:19
there’s one more name and you’ve got to
1:21
add this name to the mix. And if you
1:23
don’t add this name to the mix, then you
1:25
you have a shortcoming. Why? Because
1:27
most people tell yeah Allah is but
1:31
the minute you say Allah can but it
1:33
destroys what you just said. It erases
1:36
the sentence before it. There is no buts
1:38
or ifs. Allah can. Period. But most
1:41
people say yeah Allah brother is the but
1:44
I have to have money. Allah is the one
1:46
who provides but I have to have my shop.
1:48
I have to start my business. So we think
1:50
Allah can create but he needs the means
1:54
to create. Allah can provide but he is
1:57
in need of something. And imagine the
2:00
insanity of this idea that all of these
2:03
means that he’s created. Yeah Allah can
2:06
provide for me brother but I have to get
2:08
an education. Okay there we don’t have
2:09
an issue with education but I have an
2:12
issue with you believing
2:15
Allah have God consciousness and Allah
2:16
will teach you directly. Allah doesn’t
2:18
need an education to teach you.
2:23
[Music]
2:28
There’s no bizarre. She didn’t go on to
2:30
amazon.com. She didn’t pull out a credit
2:33
card. She didn’t open an Uber app for
2:36
delivery of this the food.
2:40
Allah gives to whom he wills as much as
2:42
he wants. So, okay. So, most people this
2:45
is the issue. They believe Allah is in
2:48
need of something else in order to take
2:51
care of their needs. The one that
2:53
created your need and created all the
2:56
means and created you needs these things
2:59
that weren’t didn’t even exist before he
3:02
created them. It’s insane to even think
3:04
that. But this is the majority of the of
3:08
the majority of the um today. Most
3:09
people tell you, “Yes, brother. Of
3:11
course, Allah, but I have to work.” And
3:13
I tell you, this is where you need the
3:14
second name. What is the name of Allah?
3:17
That basically means Allah is in no need
3:19
of anything or anyone and everything and
3:22
everyone is in need of Allah.
3:25
Exactly. Because means
3:29
he’s one. Allah all of creation, all of
3:33
the created realm is in need of him. But
3:35
he is in need of nothing, in need of
3:38
nobody. He can give you without means
3:41
because he’s the one who created means.
3:42
He doesn’t need a job. He doesn’t need
3:44
medicine to cure you. This is how you
3:46
term it exactly. Allah is the provider
3:48
to provide for me. He doesn’t need any
3:50
of his creation and he’s the Allah is
3:53
the the benefit and Allah subhanaa tala
3:56
doesn’t need any of his creation to
3:58
benefit me and he’s the sad. Allah
4:00
subhanana wa ta’ala is the one that
4:02
gives harm and he doesn’t need any of
4:03
his creation to give harm and he’s the
4:05
sad. This is how you term it. This is
4:08
how you word it. We say Allah can
4:09
resolve all my problems and doesn’t need
4:12
any of his creation and he is the
4:16
[Music]
4:19
Allah says do I turn to other than Allah
4:22
as my and he’s the rub of everything how
4:25
is this possible it’s insanity literally
4:28
Allah can and can’t now we understand oh
4:31
so Allah subhanana wa ta’ala he’s
4:35
so he can do anything and he doesn’t
4:37
need any of his creation to do anything.
4:39
He doesn’t need any of these means. No,
4:41
he doesn’t. Okay, but now what? Now,
4:43
brother, you’ve left us hanging because
4:45
if Allah subhana t the and you’re
4:47
telling me he doesn’t need any of his
4:49
creation. So, what do I do now? If Allah
4:51
can and the created cannot, then you
4:54
leave me hanging in the middle. What do
4:56
I do now? I understand Allah’s and I
4:59
understand that he doesn’t need any of
5:00
his means. But what’s the next move?
5:03
Now, you have to explain to people. You
5:05
have to bring it in yourself first. But
5:07
now you have to teach people how to take
5:10
from Allah. You want Allah to be with
5:12
you and you want to take from the
5:13
treasures of Allah because he doesn’t
5:15
need he doesn’t need the means. So how
5:18
what is the process to take from Allah
5:20
subhana wa ta’ala? We say you need im
5:23
and in order to take from Allah he’s and
5:26
he’s a he can do anything. He doesn’t
5:29
need anyone or anything and I’m in the
5:31
middle. Now I want to take from this who
5:33
doesn’t need creation. How? Teach me
5:35
how.
5:41
You want to take from the treasures of
5:43
Allah, you need and you want Allah to be
5:46
with you. And and what is the opposite
5:49
of and
5:52
memorize this? The way of is attachment
5:56
to it. And the way of is and why is the
5:59
Quran all about
6:07
is righteous deeds is acting responding
6:09
appropriately to every situation based
6:12
on
6:13
so you have to have and you have to have
6:16
you want that nearness to Allah subhana
6:18
t is near to everybody but you’re veiled
6:20
the heart is filled with images of and
6:23
the created realm so you have to sever
6:25
sever all the one at a time from your
6:27
heart you want Allah with you you want
6:29
success and a
6:32
[Music]
6:36
Ya,
6:37
[Music]
6:42
then we’re going to give him a good
6:43
life. So it’s all about im and what’s
6:46
the opposite of im and mul and mal. So
6:50
if you read the Quran the people that
6:52
were not successful were the ones
6:54
attached and think that money will solve
6:56
my problems. Dominion will solve my
6:58
problems. Status will solve my problems.
7:01
Let me go live in Dubai so I can make
7:03
the big big bucks and then if I have
7:04
money I can solve all my problems,
7:07
fulfill all my needs, fulfill all my
7:09
desires, then I’ll be happy. Allah can
7:11
give you happiness and Allah can fulfill
7:13
your needs without things and Allah can
7:15
give you things without money and Allah
7:17
can give you money without jobs and
7:19
Allah can give you jobs without an
7:21
education and Allah can teach you
7:22
without schools. This is it because Shan
7:25
he fooled us into believing that we need
7:28
means we need asbab I have to have means
7:30
in this world to fulfill my needs. So we
7:33
strip the means naked with our words. I
7:36
want you to rip like strip it naked.
7:39
When you grab the means, means cannot
7:41
do. The means is has no power, has
7:45
nothing. Allah is the doer.
7:49
But ya Allah, if you’re the why did you
7:52
create the means? Valid question. If you
7:54
are the one able to do everything, why
7:56
did you create the means? Why this
7:58
confusion? You’re the one doing
8:00
everything. So why Allah did you create
8:02
the means? Allah only created the means
8:05
to test us. Beautiful.
8:16
Allah says that we created this the
8:18
worldly means all of this that you see
8:20
to test you who is best amongst you in
8:22
deeds. One person has a million listen
8:25
carefully. One person has a million
8:28
dollars but not a single one of those
8:31
dollars is in his or her heart. You have
8:33
a million dollars but not a single
8:36
dollar is in your heart then you have
8:38
passed. One person doesn’t have a single
8:42
dollar but in his heart he says if I had
8:45
money all my problems would be solved. O
8:47
shik failed the test. See the
8:49
difference? This point is very
8:50
important. A person has a a billion
8:52
dollars in the bank account, doesn’t
8:54
have a single one of those dollars in
8:56
his heart, he’s successful, says, “I
8:58
don’t need it. I have it, but Allah, so
9:00
he’s the provider.” And another person
9:01
doesn’t have a single penny to their
9:03
name. But in their heart, they’re like,
9:04
“If only I had money, all these problems
9:07
I have will be solved.” She
9:10
smells of We don’t have animosity
9:14
towards the worldly means. Listen
9:17
carefully. We don’t have enmity with
9:20
esbab but we learn why Allah created
9:23
them and we understand why Allah created
9:26
them. He has a he has laws. He put those
9:30
orders in the worldly means. Okay.
9:32
Marriage there are commands. Business
9:35
there’s commands. Money there’s
9:37
commands. Food. Water commands.
9:42
Eat. Drink. Don’t be extravagant. Not so
9:44
you rely on the means. Not so you think
9:46
the means can do most people’s like yeah
9:48
brother of course yeah Allah is there
9:50
and yeah I have to work and I have to do
9:52
this just filled with shik in the heart
9:54
we don’t leave means and I’m going to
9:57
say this clearly because when people
9:58
hear they get very excited oh man yes
10:01
Allah is the doer he’s he doesn’t need
10:04
he doesn’t need yes but we don’t leave
10:06
asb we don’t leave the means nor do we
10:10
call towards leaving the means you never
10:12
in your talk say we should leave the
10:14
means Allah is the the one doing. Yes,
10:16
Allah is the one doing, but don’t call
10:18
towards leaving the means because they
10:20
there’s a reason behind the creation of
10:22
the means. The essence of iman is to
10:24
negate it, not leave it. And the essence
10:26
of Islam is to spend it. You can do good
10:29
things with money. The giving hand which
10:31
is the upper hand is better and more
10:33
beloved to Allah than the receiving
10:34
hand. So Allah put his in these. You
10:38
turn your back to Allah’s means. How are
10:40
you going to fulfill his commands? But
10:42
the heart should be attached to the mus
10:44
not to the sab always. Okay, brothers,
10:47
how do we deal with the asbab, the
10:49
worldly means? There’s three laws, three
10:51
things you have to do because we’re all
10:54
dealing with worldly means. So, how do
10:56
you deal what’s what what is my role
10:58
with these means? How do I deal with
11:00
Allah’s means? There’s three conditions.
11:03
Condition number one, we’re not attached
11:05
to the means. Meaning, you have no y on
11:08
the means. They’re dead. They’re just
11:09
formed. Allah subhana wa ta’ala he’s the
11:11
one doing everything. No attachment
11:13
meaning no conviction on the means.
11:15
Conviction that what? That the means can
11:17
benefit you or harm you in any way. Now
11:19
Allah does through means without means
11:21
and against means. But doing through the
11:23
means doesn’t mean that the means is
11:25
doing anything. He’s doing and veiling
11:27
his activity through the means. Number
11:29
two, we don’t break any of Allah’s
11:32
commands in the means.
11:34
The honest and trustworthy. He doesn’t
11:37
cheat you. The businessman that is
11:40
honest to you and that you can trust
11:42
will be resurrected with the prophets.
11:44
Shows you that it’s not an easy thing to
11:46
do. Most people are cheating in their
11:48
business. Most people are getting paid
11:50
on the side. This is why the highest
11:52
form of struggling jihad is to say the
11:54
truth in front of an unjust ruler. Most
11:57
people don’t have what it takes. So you
11:59
memorize this. Success is not in
12:02
business. Oh, he runs a successful
12:04
business. No, he doesn’t. No, he
12:06
doesn’t. He’s breaking Allah’s commands
12:08
in the sab. In order to run a successful
12:10
business, you have to fulfill God’s
12:12
commands in the means. Success is not in
12:14
your business. It’s in fulfilling the
12:17
command of Allah in the business. If you
12:19
get this kalas, you’re done. There was a
12:21
sahhabi. He opened a business because he
12:23
heard the prophetam say something to the
12:25
effect that if you’re easygoing in your
12:27
dealings that um there’s a special house
12:30
for you built in paradise for doing
12:32
that. So the sahabi goes opens the
12:34
business and someone buys something from
12:35
him and then comes to return it. So he
12:37
accepts the return even though he didn’t
12:39
have to. And that was easy dealing in
12:41
business. The next day that sahabi came
12:43
he found that the other sahhabi had shut
12:45
down the business. He says maybe he got
12:46
upset that I returned it returned that
12:48
item. So he went to him. He said why did
12:50
you close it down? He said I heard this
12:52
hadith ofasoolah.
12:54
So I opened the business just to fulfill
12:56
this hadith. What the flip man? Like
12:58
where are we and where are the sahaba?
13:01
They go into business to manifest one of
13:04
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam’s hadith or
13:06
to manifest a command of Allah. We go
13:08
into business to make money. You’re of
13:10
money, a slave of money. They’re going
13:12
into business for the commands of Allah.
13:14
So, they’re slaves to the commander. The
13:16
commander commanded, but you’re
13:18
following money and you’re breaking
13:20
Allah’s commands in the process. On top
13:22
of that, number three, and most people
13:25
fall prey to this one. Most people,
13:27
especially some of the most pious
13:30
people, they drop the ball on this one.
13:32
What is number three? When the means
13:34
come with Allah’s commands, we give
13:37
precedence to Allah’s command and delay
13:39
the means. When the means come with
13:42
Allah’s commands, we give precedence to
13:44
Allah’s command and delay the means.
13:47
Someone comes, this is a very deep
13:49
analogy, listen carefully. He comes, a
13:51
father comes to his son, son, stay in
13:53
the shop today. So the son stays in the
13:54
shop. A day passes, someone visits him
13:57
and tells him, “Um, your dad’s in the
13:59
hospital. You should go see him.” He
14:00
said, “No, no, my dad told me to stay in
14:02
the shop.” So, he stays in the shop.
14:04
This next day, his dad’s condition is
14:06
getting worse. Your dad’s getting really
14:08
sick. He wants you to go see him. He
14:09
says, “No, no, but he told me to stay in
14:11
the shop, so I’m staying in the shop.”
14:12
His condition gets really bad. He’s
14:14
calling you. The same person that told
14:16
you to stay in the shop is telling you
14:17
to now come. Listen carefully. He’s
14:19
telling you, “Come.” He says, “No, no,
14:21
no, no. He told me.” The father dies and
14:23
he doesn’t even get to see his father.
14:27
The same one that is saying
14:30
is saying listen everyone’s like Allah
14:33
commanded me to work and take the means.
14:36
Yes. But the same one that commanded you
14:38
to work and take the means and said
14:41
is now saying what?
14:44
Go out in the path of Allah. My shops in
14:48
Tabuk. The Sahabah wanted to delay
14:50
because the trees bore the fruits. It
14:52
beared the fruits. So we’ll just get the
14:54
fruits and go. No. The one that told you
14:58
the one that told you is telling you
15:02
and the same Allah that is that told you
15:04
just take it easy. I’m the don’t worry.
15:08
Go utilize the means. This is the world
15:10
of means. Then you’re attached to the
15:12
means and you break Allah’s commands in
15:14
the means and you’re sitting in a shop
15:16
selling alcohol and you say I have to
15:18
work. This is even like a next level.
15:21
Your whole job is haram. You can’t even
15:23
do it. No, my job is Allah.
15:26
How is it a Ibadah.
