 Auto-generated transcript:In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds. And peace and blessings be upon the honour of the prophets and messengers. Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and upon his family and companions. Peace be upon him, and upon him, and upon him. From now on, we are looking at the story of Hatim al-Assam, peace and blessings be upon him, and the advice that he gave to people. And this is the seventh of them, seventh out of eight. He said, I have seen that people are struggling to earn their money. I've seen that people are struggling to earn their money so much that they disgrace and they demean themselves before others and even use haram means to earn their livelihood. What I have read in the Quran that Allah has said, وَمَا مِنْ دَابَّةٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا عَلَى اللَّهِ رِزْقُهَا وَيَعْلَمُ مُسْتَقَرَّهَا وَمُسْتَوْضَعَهَا كُلٌّ فِي كِتَابٍ مُّبِينٍ And this is the first of the seven verses. And the second verse is the first verse. And the third verse is the first verse. And the fourth verse is the first verse. And the fifth verse is the first verse. And the sixth verse is the first verse. And the seventh verse is the sixth verse. And the seventh verse is the sixth verse. And the seventh verse is the fifth verse. And the fourth verse is the sixth verse. Then Allah says in Ayatul 추َسَّطَ passieren Weは انعم الْحَٰرين الذين بالحق القدم escola There is no moving creature on the earth whose provision, whose rizq is not guaranteed by Allah. And only He who knows where it lives and where it is laid to rest. And all of them is written in the perfect record. حادث الالميل الم记ع الأمر őlحاطم الأسم says I know that I am also one of those creatures selling some goods at the market. He knows that and He knows that I am also one of those people. sustenance depends on Allah and Allah has guaranteed that to me. So I engage myself in the Ibadah of Allah for which He created me and I have left the responsibility of my provisions to Him. I engage myself in the Ibadah of Allah and responsibility of the provisions I have left it to Allah. I remind myself and you, think about one thing. Most of you would have had your dinner I suppose by now, right? If you didn't have dinner, you had lunch anyway. Think about what you ate for lunch, whatever it was. Supposing you ate for lunch a roti, you know, a kufus. You ate a pizza. You ate a pizza. You ate a pizza. Now take that bread you ate and trace it back. Before becoming a bread, what was this thing? It was dough. And this dough went into an oven and somebody cooked it, right? Before the dough, what was it? Flour. And this flour, was it born as a flour? No. Before that, what was it? It was a plant. It was a seed, right? So somebody sowed a seed somewhere, we don't know where. That plant grew. It produced seeds, which is rice or wheat or corn or whatever. And then somebody harvested that and someone transported that to some place. It was stored. And then someone bought that and they took it and they ground it and they made flour. And somebody bought this flour and they took it into the bakery and they kneaded the dough and they baked the bread. And then this bread went into the pizza place and somebody made the pizza. Okay? And all you did was, you went and paid five bucks and you bought the pizza and you ate the pizza. You don't know and you don't remember and you don't acknowledge and you don't think of all the people and all the things that I only started at the plant. There's a story beyond that also. All of that, which was decreed by Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala Jalla Jalaluhu so that you could eat your pizza. How many people? In how many people? In how many?
