0:00 This is the baraka. When people say the baraka is important in our lives, this is what we mean by baraka. someone who works in an interestbased bank rebate and he gets maybe 15 20,000 20 You're your kind of strange uh 10 20 2,000 and some in in real he gets 100,000 real this is 10,000 uh KD everybody wa big salary big miffing good job and if he resigns because it's haram you're crazy why are you doing this and he gets a job for 10,000 real 1,000 KD. Allah puts more baraka in it than the 10,000 KD. How? You buy something, it

0:45 lasts a month. You buy a car, it never breaks down. You buy uh uh um things for the house, your children don't get sick. But when you have a huge haram income and Allah takes the baraka the food is not sufficient the clothes don't last the kids go to a hospital frequently you have so many accidents there is no happiness there is no tranquility the baraka is sought after from allahel through following the Quran and through following the sunnah and halal risk Abu Hurra accepted Islam only for four years yet he narrated the vast majority of a hadith Why he was asked this? How come you only accompanied the prophet for 4 years? Alisam other companions

1:32 accompanied him for 23 years and did not even narrate 10% of what you did. He said everyone had to make a living. They all had to farm, they go to the market, they sell and buy, they had errands, they had wives, they had children. I had nothing. I accompanied the prophetat wasam to feed me. So I was with a prophet these four years 24/7 and I faced days where I was starving totally hungry. So I used to meet Abu Bakr you used to meet Omar and I stand in their face. Uh do you know the hadith of the prophet where he said something like that and he says I know the hadith more than them. Just I want them to look at

2:17 me and say yeah the hadith is so and so. You look hungry come and I will feed you. And then none of them would say such a thing until the prophet once saw me lying in the masjid I was I I thought I was dying and he said Abu follow me. So I thought whoa now this is my luck. So he went with the prophetat wasam and he said when he entered the home to his wives do we have any food? Abuer's eyes lit. Alhamdulillah, now I'm going to get my meal. So they said, "No, prophet of Allah, we don't have anything except one glass of milk was gifted to us by so and so, our neighbors." So I said, "Okay, milk is good. It does the job." So he said, "Abuer," he said,

3:03 "Yes, oh prophet of Allah, here I am. I'm here. Can you see me?" Okay. He said, "Go to the masjid and call the people of Sufa, the totally broke people who only live in the masid. They have no houses, no cupboards, no clothes, nothing. Totally broke like you. He said, "Go call them. There are 80 plus of them. What is this?" But it's a direct order. So I left with an eye on the glass, but I couldn't do anything. So he went, he called them. So the prophet said, "Invite them in 10 by 10. Not all of them, 10 people at a time." So each one came. The prophet drank from it and gave it to them and they drank

3:49 their fill and they left. Another 10 came. Another 10 came. Another 10 came. And then when they're all over, the prophet said, "Abuer, drink." Why? There is an authentic hadith, by the way. Remember it. Huh? A lot of the Muslims don't know it. The prophet saidat wasam the one who hosts people to drink he's the last to drink. So if you're coming to drink uh to to host the guests and you're pouring them some colas or some fizzy drinks or some juice some of us pour themselves and drink their fa then okay. No, you give the whole of the guests. This is a sunnah and the last one to drink is you.

4:36 So Abu Hurra when he saw the prophet telling him drink, he drank. The prophet said after he returned, drink more. He drank, drink more until he was stuffed. So the prophet said, "Drink more." He said, "By Allah who sent with the truth, there is no room except for breathalas." And subhan Allah, one glass. This is the baraka.
