1 00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:09,779 Riyad al-Salihin: The Gardens of the Righteous from the Words of the Master of Messengers, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 2 00:00:09,779 --> 00:00:19,690 The chapter on guiding others to goodness and calling them toward either guidance or misguidance. 3 00:00:19,690 --> 00:00:23,780 The Almighty says, "And invite to your Lord." 4 00:00:23,780 --> 00:00:30,980 And the Almighty says: "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching." 5 00:00:30,980 --> 00:00:36,009 Allah the Almighty says: "And cooperate in righteousness and piety." 6 00:00:36,009 --> 00:00:45,960 And Allah the Exalted says: "And let there be [arising] from you a nation inviting to [all that is] good." 7 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:51,960 On the authority of Abu Mas'ud 'Uqbah ibn 'Amr al-Ansari al-Badri, may Allah be pleased with him. 8 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,960 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 9 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:01,060 Whoever guides another to a good deed will have a reward similar to the one who performs it. 10 00:01:01,060 --> 00:01:04,560 It was recorded by Muslim. 11 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,719 Among the benefits of this hadith 12 00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:10,719 It is incumbent upon the Muslim to perform righteous deeds and do good. 13 00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:14,719 If he is unable to do so, then he is the cause of that. 14 00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:18,719 For the one who is the cause of a righteous deed shall have a share of the reward. 15 00:01:18,719 --> 00:01:22,719 Just as the one who performs the action attains the reward and recompense. 16 00:01:22,719 --> 00:01:25,719 without diminishing the reward of the doer in the slightest. 17 00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:30,129 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him. 18 00:01:30,129 --> 00:01:34,129 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 19 00:01:34,129 --> 00:01:36,129 Whoever calls to guidance 20 00:01:36,129 --> 00:01:40,129 He would have a reward equal to the rewards of those who followed him. 21 00:01:40,129 --> 00:01:44,129 That does not diminish their rewards in the slightest. 22 00:01:44,129 --> 00:01:46,129 And whoever calls others toward misguidance 23 00:01:46,129 --> 00:01:50,129 He would bear a burden of sin equal to the sins of those who followed him. 24 00:01:50,129 --> 00:01:54,129 That does not diminish their sins in the slightest. 25 00:01:54,129 --> 00:01:56,290 It was recorded by Muslim. 26 00:01:58,980 --> 00:02:00,980 Among the benefits of the hadith 27 00:02:00,980 --> 00:02:04,140 The one who causes an action and the one who directly performs it. 28 00:02:04,140 --> 00:02:09,139 They are equal in outcome, whether in terms of punishment or reward. 29 00:02:09,139 --> 00:02:14,460 It is incumbent upon the Muslim to reflect deeply on the consequences of matters and the outcomes of his actions. 30 00:02:14,460 --> 00:02:18,460 He strives for goodness so that he may serve as a virtuous example. 31 00:02:18,460 --> 00:02:21,819 A Muslim must be wary of false calls. 32 00:02:21,819 --> 00:02:24,819 And he distances himself from bad companions. 33 00:02:24,819 --> 00:02:27,819 For he is accountable for what he does. 34 00:02:27,819 --> 00:02:31,099 The one who facilitates goodness receives a multiplied reward. 35 00:02:31,099 --> 00:02:35,099 And the one who is the cause of evil shall have his punishment doubled. 36 00:02:35,099 --> 00:02:38,830 On the authority of Abu al-'Abbas 37 00:02:38,830 --> 00:02:42,830 Sahl Ibn Sa'd al-Sa'idi, may Allah be pleased with him. 38 00:02:42,830 --> 00:02:45,830 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 39 00:02:45,830 --> 00:02:47,830 He said on the day of Khaybar 40 00:02:47,830 --> 00:02:49,830 We shall surely hand over the banner tomorrow. 41 00:02:49,830 --> 00:02:52,830 A man through whose hands Allah grants victory. 42 00:02:52,830 --> 00:02:54,830 He loves Allah and His Messenger. 43 00:02:54,830 --> 00:02:57,830 And he is loved by Allah and His Messenger, peace be upon him. 44 00:02:57,830 --> 00:03:00,860 The people spent the night in a state of restless agitation. 45 00:03:00,860 --> 00:03:02,860 Which of them shall be given it? 46 00:03:02,860 --> 00:03:04,860 When the people reached the morning, 47 00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:08,860 They went early in the morning to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 48 00:03:08,860 --> 00:03:11,860 All of them hope to be granted it. 49 00:03:11,860 --> 00:03:15,860 He then asked, "Where is ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib?" 50 00:03:15,860 --> 00:03:18,860 It was then said, "O Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him." 51 00:03:18,860 --> 00:03:20,860 He is complaining about my eye. 52 00:03:20,860 --> 00:03:23,860 He said, "Then send for him." 53 00:03:23,860 --> 00:03:25,900 So he was brought before him. 54 00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:28,900 Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, spat. 55 00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:31,900 He looked into his eyes and prayed for him. 56 00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:35,900 He recovered as if he had never been in any pain at all. 57 00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:37,900 He then handed him the banner. 58 00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:40,900 Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, said: 59 00:03:40,900 --> 00:03:41,900 O Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 60 00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:45,900 I shall fight them until they become like us. 61 00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:46,900 He then said 62 00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:48,900 Proceed at your own pace. 63 00:03:48,900 --> 00:03:51,900 until it descends upon their territory. 64 00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:53,900 Then invite them to Islam. 65 00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:58,900 And he informed them of what is incumbent upon them regarding the right of Allah, the Exalted, concerning it. 66 00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:02,900 By Allah, for Allah to guide a single man through you is better for you than possessing the finest of camels. 67 00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:05,900 It is better for you than the finest red camels. 68 00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:07,900 Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim. 69 00:04:07,900 --> 00:04:10,150 His statement, "they are confused." 70 00:04:10,150 --> 00:04:13,150 Meaning they delve into and discuss [the matter]. 71 00:04:13,150 --> 00:04:19,009 They set out early, meaning they traveled at the beginning of the day. 72 00:04:19,009 --> 00:04:20,009 He complains. 73 00:04:20,009 --> 00:04:22,009 Meaning that he feels pain. 74 00:04:22,009 --> 00:04:24,170 Proceed at your own pace. 75 00:04:24,170 --> 00:04:27,170 Proceed with deliberation and do not be hasty. 76 00:04:27,170 --> 00:04:29,329 in their courtyard 77 00:04:29,329 --> 00:04:31,329 That is, their perspective. 78 00:04:31,329 --> 00:04:33,389 The right of Allah, Exalted is He. 79 00:04:33,389 --> 00:04:36,389 Meaning that which He has commanded and that which He has forbidden. 80 00:04:36,389 --> 00:04:38,649 May Allah guide others through you. 81 00:04:38,649 --> 00:04:41,649 Meaning, He saves you through it from disbelief or misguidance. 82 00:04:41,649 --> 00:04:43,810 The finest of camels. 83 00:04:43,810 --> 00:04:46,810 The most common form of zakat is that which is levied upon camels. 84 00:04:46,810 --> 00:04:48,810 And the red camels. 85 00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:50,810 They were the most precious assets of the Arabs. 86 00:04:50,810 --> 00:04:55,810 For this reason, the phrase has become a proverbial expression for everything of great value. 87 00:04:55,810 --> 00:04:59,810 And there is nothing greater than it. 88 00:04:59,810 --> 00:05:03,180 Among the benefits of the hadith 89 00:05:03,180 --> 00:05:08,470 Allah, glory be to Him, honored His Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 90 00:05:08,470 --> 00:05:11,470 He then revealed to him those who would achieve victory through him. 91 00:05:11,470 --> 00:05:15,759 The excellence of ‘Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, and his status. 92 00:05:15,759 --> 00:05:19,759 And the Prophet’s—peace and blessings of Allah be upon him—deep trust in him. 93 00:05:19,759 --> 00:05:24,269 The miracle of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 94 00:05:24,269 --> 00:05:28,269 For healing was achieved at his hands by the permission of Allah, the Exalted. 95 00:05:28,269 --> 00:05:33,529 The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, were deeply committed to attaining the love of Allah and His Messenger. 96 00:05:33,529 --> 00:05:35,529 And their efforts in that regard. 97 00:05:35,529 --> 00:05:40,529 And their eagerness to implement it, and their competition with one another in doing good. 98 00:05:40,529 --> 00:05:43,779 The sublimity of Islam in its call. 99 00:05:43,779 --> 00:05:45,779 And his etiquette during his struggle in the path of Allah. 100 00:05:45,779 --> 00:05:49,779 His ultimate goal was to rescue the servants of Allah from misguidance and perdition. 101 00:05:49,779 --> 00:05:53,199 The virtue of calling others to Allah, the Almighty and Majestic. 102 00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:57,199 And the encouragement to guide others toward goodness and truth. 103 00:05:57,199 --> 00:06:02,199 Because of the immense reward and abundant recompense that this yields. 104 00:06:02,199 --> 00:06:06,319 On the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him. 105 00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:08,319 That the trials of those who embraced Islam, he said: 106 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:10,319 O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 107 00:06:10,319 --> 00:06:12,319 I intend to go out for military expedition. 108 00:06:12,319 --> 00:06:15,319 And I do not have the means to prepare myself for the journey. 109 00:06:15,319 --> 00:06:16,350 He said 110 00:06:16,350 --> 00:06:17,350 He said 111 00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:19,350 Go to so-and-so. 112 00:06:19,350 --> 00:06:22,350 For he had already prepared himself for the journey, but then he fell ill. 113 00:06:22,350 --> 00:06:24,350 He came to him and said: 114 00:06:24,350 --> 00:06:30,350 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, sends you his greetings and says: 115 00:06:30,350 --> 00:06:33,350 Give me what you have prepared. 116 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:34,350 He then said 117 00:06:34,350 --> 00:06:35,350 O so-and-so. 118 00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:38,350 I shall give him that which I have prepared for it. 119 00:06:38,350 --> 00:06:41,350 And do not withhold any of it. 120 00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:44,350 By Allah, you shall not withhold any part of it. 121 00:06:44,350 --> 00:06:46,350 May Allah bless it for us. 122 00:06:46,350 --> 00:06:48,509 It was recorded by Muslim. 123 00:06:48,509 --> 00:06:51,889 The youth 124 00:06:51,889 --> 00:06:53,889 Any young man who is of a tender age. 125 00:06:53,889 --> 00:06:56,079 He embraced Islam. 126 00:06:56,079 --> 00:06:59,300 It is one of the tribes of the Arabs. 127 00:06:59,300 --> 00:07:01,300 That with which I prepare myself. 128 00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:05,370 Meaning, that which I require for my journey and my struggle. 129 00:07:05,370 --> 00:07:06,370 He sends his greetings of peace to you. 130 00:07:06,370 --> 00:07:09,620 Meaning, he recites to you and initiates the conversation with you. 131 00:07:09,620 --> 00:07:10,620 You should restrain yourself. 132 00:07:10,620 --> 00:07:15,259 Meaning: you should leave it with you. 133 00:07:15,259 --> 00:07:17,259 Among the benefits of the hadith 134 00:07:17,259 --> 00:07:21,610 Whoever desires to participate in a military expedition but lacks the means to prepare for it. 135 00:07:21,610 --> 00:07:23,610 The Imam described his state. 136 00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:27,610 He should not excuse himself until the Imam excuses him. 137 00:07:27,610 --> 00:07:31,990 Jihad requires both preparation and readiness. 138 00:07:31,990 --> 00:07:36,339 It is permissible to take weapons from one who has prepared for jihad. 139 00:07:36,339 --> 00:07:38,339 However, he was unable to leave. 140 00:07:38,339 --> 00:07:41,339 The Imam excused him for that. 141 00:07:41,339 --> 00:07:45,660 The command of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is to be obeyed. 142 00:07:45,660 --> 00:07:47,660 It is not permissible to reject it. 143 00:07:47,660 --> 00:07:50,660 And likewise were the Imams who came after him. 144 00:07:50,660 --> 00:07:55,980 Guiding others toward goodness, striving to attain it, and assisting in its realization. 145 00:07:55,980 --> 00:08:01,339 Whoever is stingy with their wealth in the way of Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, and in the various avenues of charity. 146 00:08:01,339 --> 00:08:04,339 The blessing has departed from his wealth. 147 00:08:04,339 --> 00:08:07,339 And he cast himself into destruction. 148 00:08:07,339 --> 00:08:12,779 The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, were deeply committed to carrying out the command of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 149 00:08:12,779 --> 00:08:18,779 And their swift response to him, for in it lies life, light, and guidance. 150 00:08:18,779 --> 00:08:25,439 The Chapter on Mutual Cooperation in Righteousness and Piety 151 00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:30,170 Allah the Exalted says 152 00:08:30,170 --> 00:08:33,169 “O ye who believe! Profane not Allah's monuments nor the Sacred Month nor the offerings nor the garlands, nor those repairing to the Sacred House, seeking the grace and pleasure of their Lord. But when ye have left the sacred territory, then go hunting (if ye will). And let not your hatred of a folk who (once) stopped your going to the inviolable place of worship seduce you to transgress; but help ye one another unto righteousness and pious duty. Help not one another unto sin and transgression, but keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is severe in punishment.” (5:2) 153 00:08:33,169 --> 00:08:35,200 And the Almighty has said 154 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,200 By the passage of time. 155 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,200 “Lo! man is a state of loss,” (103:2) 156 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:48,490 “Save those who believe and do good works, and exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to endurance.” (103:3) 157 00:08:48,490 --> 00:08:53,490 Imam al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, stated something to the effect that 158 00:08:53,490 --> 00:08:59,490 People, or at least the majority of them, are heedless of reflecting upon this surah. 159 00:08:59,490 --> 00:09:07,769 On the authority of Abu 'Abd al-Rahman Zayd ibn Khalid al-Juhani, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 160 00:09:07,769 --> 00:09:11,769 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 161 00:09:11,769 --> 00:09:16,769 Whoever equips a warrior in the path of Allah has effectively participated in the battle himself. 162 00:09:16,769 --> 00:09:21,769 And whoever provides for the family of a warrior in his absence with goodness has indeed participated in the battle. 163 00:09:21,769 --> 00:09:25,210 Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim. 164 00:09:25,210 --> 00:09:32,210 He acts as a deputy for the warrior, meaning he provides for his family and covers all their needs during his absence. 165 00:09:32,210 --> 00:09:37,000 Among the benefits of the hadith 166 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,000 To assist a Muslim in the struggle for the sake of Allah. 167 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,000 By facilitating for him everything he required for his journey. 168 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,000 Or he took care of his family's affairs during his absence. 169 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,259 He would receive a reward equal to his reward and his struggle. 170 00:09:50,259 --> 00:09:55,259 Encouraging the protection of the internal front within the Muslim community. 171 00:09:55,259 --> 00:10:00,259 In that, there is a strengthening of the resolve of those who strive in the way of Allah. 172 00:10:00,259 --> 00:10:04,259 And those stationed at the frontiers to protect the integrity of Islam. 173 00:10:04,259 --> 00:10:09,259 Where they feel secure regarding their homes, their children, and their families. 174 00:10:09,259 --> 00:10:16,830 The Islamic community is a society of mutual support and cooperation in righteousness and piety. 175 00:10:16,830 --> 00:10:22,779 Narrated by Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him. 176 00:10:22,779 --> 00:10:29,779 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, dispatched a military expedition to the Banu Lihyan of the Hudhayl tribe. 177 00:10:29,779 --> 00:10:31,779 He then said 178 00:10:31,779 --> 00:10:37,779 That he would send one out of every two men, with the reward shared between them. 179 00:10:37,779 --> 00:10:41,100 It was recorded by Muslim. 180 00:10:41,100 --> 00:10:45,100 He sent, meaning he intended to send. 181 00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:50,830 The Banu Lihyan are the most well-known clan of the Hudhayl tribe. 182 00:10:50,830 --> 00:10:53,250 Among the benefits of the hadith 183 00:10:53,250 --> 00:10:59,250 It is not the case that all the men of a tribe or all the men of a town should go out for jihad. 184 00:10:59,250 --> 00:11:01,250 Rather, some of them go so far as to argue 185 00:11:01,250 --> 00:11:04,250 Those who remain among them shall have a reward equal to those who went forth. 186 00:11:04,250 --> 00:11:09,250 When they left them behind, they took good care of their families and provided for them. 187 00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:14,820 The hadith points to the distribution of responsibility among the members of the Ummah. 188 00:11:14,820 --> 00:11:18,820 For life requires various types of responsibilities. 189 00:11:18,820 --> 00:11:25,820 Some attend to the affairs of families, while others participate in jihad. 190 00:11:25,820 --> 00:11:31,169 On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both. 191 00:11:31,169 --> 00:11:36,169 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, encountered a caravan at al-Rawha'. 192 00:11:36,169 --> 00:11:39,169 Then he asked, "Who are the people?" 193 00:11:39,169 --> 00:11:42,169 The Muslims said: 194 00:11:42,169 --> 00:11:45,169 They asked, "Who are you?" 195 00:11:45,169 --> 00:11:48,259 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 196 00:11:48,259 --> 00:11:54,259 A woman then lifted a young boy toward him and asked, "Does this one have a Hajj?" 197 00:11:54,259 --> 00:11:57,259 He said, "Yes, and you shall have a reward." 198 00:11:57,259 --> 00:12:01,000 Recorded by Muslim. 199 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,259 The term 'rukban' is the plural of 'rakib' (rider). 200 00:12:04,259 --> 00:12:08,259 Al-Rawha' is a location near Medina. 201 00:12:08,259 --> 00:12:12,570 Among the benefits of the hadith 202 00:12:12,570 --> 00:12:16,570 It is permissible for a man to inquire about a group of people if he does not know them. 203 00:12:16,570 --> 00:12:19,950 A Muslim should identify himself by his religion, 204 00:12:19,950 --> 00:12:22,950 rather than by his tribe or homeland. 205 00:12:22,950 --> 00:12:24,950 How true is the one who said: 206 00:12:24,950 --> 00:12:27,950 "My father is Islam, I have no other father but it, 207 00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:30,950 when they boast of their lineage to Qays or Tamim." 208 00:12:30,950 --> 00:12:34,559 It is permissible to ask about the one who is asking. 209 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,039 Whoever is a cause for an act of obedience or assists in it, 210 00:12:39,039 --> 00:12:43,039 receives a reward as if he had performed it himself. 211 00:12:43,039 --> 00:12:46,419 The Hajj of a young child is permissible and valid, 212 00:12:46,419 --> 00:12:48,419 and he is rewarded for it, 213 00:12:48,419 --> 00:12:51,419 but it does not exempt him from the obligatory Hajj of Islam. 214 00:12:51,419 --> 00:12:54,419 Rather, it becomes mandatory for him after reaching puberty. 215 00:12:54,419 --> 00:12:58,710 The humility of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 216 00:12:58,710 --> 00:13:01,710 and how he did not distinguish himself from the rest of his Companions. 217 00:13:01,710 --> 00:13:04,710 That is why the people asked him, 218 00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:07,710 "Who are you?" so that they might recognize him. 219 00:13:07,710 --> 00:13:11,899 On the authority of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari, may Allah be pleased with him, 220 00:13:11,899 --> 00:13:14,899 from the Prophet, peace be upon him, 221 00:13:14,899 --> 00:13:16,899 that he said: 222 00:13:16,899 --> 00:13:19,929 "The trustworthy Muslim treasurer, 223 00:13:19,929 --> 00:13:21,929 who carries out what he has been commanded to do, 224 00:13:21,929 --> 00:13:24,929 and delivers it fully and completely, 225 00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:26,929 with a willing heart, 226 00:13:26,929 --> 00:13:29,929 then hands it over to the one he was ordered to give it to, 227 00:13:29,929 --> 00:13:32,929 is one of the two who gives charity." 228 00:13:32,929 --> 00:13:34,929 Agreed upon. 229 00:13:34,929 --> 00:13:37,059 In another narration, 230 00:13:37,059 --> 00:13:40,059 "who gives what he has been commanded to give." 231 00:13:40,059 --> 00:13:43,059 Scholars have vocalized "al-mutasaddiqayn" (the two who give charity) 232 00:13:43,059 --> 00:13:45,059 in the dual form, 233 00:13:45,059 --> 00:13:47,059 while others have vocalized it in the plural form, 234 00:13:47,059 --> 00:13:50,620 and both are correct. 235 00:13:50,620 --> 00:13:52,620 The treasurer (al-khazin) 236 00:13:52,620 --> 00:13:55,620 is the one who stores the wealth of another with his permission, 237 00:13:55,620 --> 00:13:57,779 and is entrusted with it. 238 00:13:57,779 --> 00:13:58,779 "Fully" (muwaffaran) 239 00:13:58,779 --> 00:14:00,779 means in its entirety, despite its abundance. 240 00:14:00,779 --> 00:14:02,980 "With a willing heart" (tayyibatan bihi nafsuhu) 241 00:14:02,980 --> 00:14:05,980 means he does not envy the recipient of the charity, 242 00:14:05,980 --> 00:14:08,980 nor does he harm him with word or deed. 243 00:14:08,980 --> 00:14:13,580 Among the benefits of the hadith: 244 00:14:13,580 --> 00:14:15,639 The permissibility of appointing a treasurer, 245 00:14:15,639 --> 00:14:19,639 and that this is neither arrogance nor extravagance. 246 00:14:19,639 --> 00:14:22,019 Possessing an abundance of lawful wealth 247 00:14:22,019 --> 00:14:24,019 is not a sin. 248 00:14:24,019 --> 00:14:27,340 It encourages wealthy people to give charity. 249 00:14:27,340 --> 00:14:31,730 Whoever is appointed to carry out an act of goodness, 250 00:14:31,730 --> 00:14:34,730 and performs what he was entrusted with in the best possible manner, 251 00:14:34,730 --> 00:14:37,730 with desire for it and contentment with it, 252 00:14:37,730 --> 00:14:40,730 receives a reward equal to the actual doer 253 00:14:40,730 --> 00:14:42,730 who appointed him to it. 254 00:14:42,730 --> 00:14:44,759 Likewise, everyone who participates 255 00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:47,759 or contributes to achieving a benefit or warding off harm, 256 00:14:47,759 --> 00:14:51,759 even if he did not spend any money in its path. 257 00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:54,919 The sincere, trustworthy worker 258 00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:57,919 who spends from the wealth of the Ummah 259 00:14:57,919 --> 00:14:59,919 on public interests, 260 00:14:59,919 --> 00:15:03,919 receives a reward as if he had spent from his own wealth. 261 00:15:03,919 --> 00:15:08,659 Riyad al-Salihin.
