Right now I'm in Al Shifa hospital, which is located in Idlib city and funded by One Nation.
00:00:08.880
On average, each patient that we're treating in this intensive care unit is costing 500 pounds.
00:00:14.640
So many children have died unnecessarily because we doctors don't have the drugs
00:00:20.400
and the equipment needed to save them. With your donation,
00:00:23.600
you will enable us to be able to save lives by the permission of Allah.
00:00:27.280
I used to struggle reading the Quran daily before you instructed me to download this app.

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:47.520
Bitcoin has crashed. Bitcoin is a life support machine.
00:00:57.600
Brothers and sisters who are watching this, if you have invested large amounts of money
00:01:01.920
or great amounts of your savings into Bitcoin and now it's crashed and you have crashed with it,
00:01:06.480
I have a reminder for you brothers and sisters from the Quran and the Sunnah.
00:01:11.680
One of the beauties that I love about Islam when I came to Islam is that I was aware where my risk,
00:01:17.920
my earnings, my things, earnings are not just money, things are going to reach me.
00:01:22.000
I knew they were in the hands of Allah and what was going to reach me was never going to avoid me or go past me.
00:01:28.000
And what was bound to miss me was never going to reach me.
00:01:31.520
And that contentment, not a lot of people have it.
00:01:37.600
Sadly, Muslims don't have this kind of understanding and tawakul in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:01:41.680
Number two, brothers and sisters, we need to understand something very clearly.
00:01:45.520
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the Quran, we will send you a smaller calamity and wallahi,
00:01:52.240
and you can call this some kind of calamity if you've lost large amounts of money,
00:01:55.360
that this calamity can divert you from the greater calamity.
00:01:59.760
That means that when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sends you something which is devastating,
00:02:03.040
you invested all your money, you lost it, you're in a situation of you're depressed, anxiety,
00:02:10.560
It might be that this thing is going to get you and keep you, get you back on track.
00:02:17.440
Maybe this money that he was going to get was going to divert you,
00:02:21.040
was going to divert you from the remembrance of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:02:24.640
There's a hadith of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
00:02:26.960
It is narrated, it is graded as weak by Shaykh al-Bani may Allah have mercy on him,
00:02:32.800
but we derive some rulings in a nutshell, which is the hadith that says that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala might see his servant.
00:02:38.800
and might realize that money is going to be the end of him and that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala withholds that from him.
00:02:46.640
Because he realizes that if he gives him money, it's going to be his destruction.
00:02:50.400
And for some people Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sees that being poor for them is not good.
00:02:56.240
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala enriches them and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knows that money is not going to be a great fitna for them.
00:03:02.880
Hasan al-Basri may Allah have mercy on him said the following,
00:03:05.760
Do not resent the calamities that come and the disasters that occur,
00:03:09.920
for perhaps in something you dislike will be your salvation,
00:03:13.200
and perhaps in something that you prefer will be your doom.
00:03:16.480
And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the Quran,
00:03:18.960
Perhaps you dislike something which is good for you and like something which is bad for you.
00:03:24.480
Allah knows and you do not know brothers and sisters.
00:03:27.680
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is telling you something.
00:03:30.160
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is trying to make you understand something.
00:03:33.040
If you have lost large amounts of money, you had plans to live a lavish lifestyle, whatever it may be, etc.
00:03:39.120
Because you think that this is going to bring you happiness.
00:03:41.440
You know what's happening guys? You are taking the aqal over the naqal once again.
00:03:45.520
This is the biggest problem that as human beings we fall into.
00:03:51.120
And guess what? The thing that we know, where do we know it from?
00:03:53.840
The things that we see, glamorous cars, glamorous houses, glamorous women or glamorous men, or whatever it may be.
00:04:02.640
But indeed Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knows, maybe not your happiness, your doom lies in that.
00:04:07.840
Let's be very honest brothers and sisters subhanallah.
00:04:10.240
And look, there are some people who have killed their self over this.
00:04:16.160
Please brothers and sisters, for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
00:04:18.640
let's understand and acknowledge happiness comes from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:04:22.080
Do you not think these worldly affairs will ever make you happy?
00:04:26.640
I expect the least and I make dua for the best.
00:04:34.480
Alhamdulillah, with all permission, praise Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
00:04:38.320
I try to carry money in my hand, not in my heart.
00:04:40.880
Before in Jahiliyyah, it used to be in my heart, not in my hand.
00:04:47.360
As long as I have a halal income, I can provide for my family, I can pay my rent,
00:04:51.600
I can give my wife some money to live by, whatever it may be.
00:04:56.160
As long as I've got that, Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Alameen.
00:05:03.440
Me, my wife and my two kids live in the same bed, in the same bedroom.
00:05:09.360
In the same bedroom, my daughter's bed, two daughters' bed, we're in the same bed.
00:05:26.800
Brothers and sisters, peace is from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
00:05:30.320
Some people, and I'm going to rap on this, have a go at others.
00:05:35.680
My brother, if you're working at nine to five, and you're earning a halal income,
00:05:39.360
Wallahi, that is more beloved than Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
00:05:41.360
than somebody who's trying to be an entrepreneur, and wants to make it, and even goes down to Haram Roots.
00:05:54.240
Because in the sight of Allah, you earning a halal income is more dear to him.
00:05:57.600
That's all I have to say, and I'm going to wrap it up with that brother and says inshallah.
00:06:01.360
Now I'm not saying, by the way, if you can make you work your way up.
00:06:05.760
Like I said before, if I had the money, bro, I'll be driving a Bentley.
00:06:14.000
Make our goal and ambition that you have for Bitcoin and invest in here, this, that.
00:06:28.320
If only we gave that focus to the hereafter, as much as we do in this hereafter,
00:06:31.440
to the level that people want to take their life.
00:06:38.080
In this, this is probably a blessing in disguise.
00:06:40.480
Maybe it is this that, on the day of judgment, they're going to change you and get closer to
00:06:43.600
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, that you're going to say, Alhamdulillah, that Bitcoin crashed.
00:06:46.640
Because when it crashed, it was the reason for me to come to the realization.
00:06:53.120
May Allah grant every single one of its Jannah.
