The Garden of Guidance

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:07.500
Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, says:

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:16.940
"You will never attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love."

00:00:16.940 --> 00:00:27.469
“Ye will not attain unto piety until ye spend of that which ye love. And whatsoever ye spend, Allah is Aware thereof.” (3:92)

00:00:27.469 --> 00:00:32.000
It is narrated from Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:39.500
When the verse "You will never attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love" was revealed,

00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.500
Abu Talhah stood up and said:

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:46.000
"O Messenger of Allah, Allah says:

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:52.030
'You will never attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love,'

00:00:52.030 --> 00:00:56.030
and the most beloved of my wealth to me is Bayruha.

00:00:56.030 --> 00:00:59.030
It is a charity for the sake of Allah;

00:00:59.030 --> 00:01:03.060
I hope for its righteousness and its reward with Allah.

00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:07.060
So, place it, O Messenger of Allah, where Allah shows you."

00:01:07.060 --> 00:01:11.280
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:17.879
"Excellent! That is profitable wealth.

00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:20.379
I have heard what you said,

00:01:20.379 --> 00:01:24.379
and I suggest that you distribute it among your relatives."

00:01:24.379 --> 00:01:26.480
Abu Talhah replied:

00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:28.980
"I will do so, O Messenger of Allah."

00:01:28.980 --> 00:01:34.569
So, Abu Talhah distributed it among his relatives and his cousins.

00:01:34.569 --> 00:01:36.760
Agreed upon.

00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.900
A benefit:

00:01:38.900 --> 00:01:41.950
It may be your wealth or your food,

00:01:41.950 --> 00:01:44.450
or your sleep or your play,

00:01:44.450 --> 00:01:46.950
or your sitting among your friends,

00:01:46.950 --> 00:01:50.950
or your watching of matches or television series—

00:01:50.950 --> 00:01:53.450
whatever is most beloved to you.

00:01:53.450 --> 00:01:57.450
Spend a portion of the time you devote to your interests and pleasures

00:01:57.450 --> 00:01:59.950
in an act of obedience that Allah loves.
