Resumen

TLDRThis video discusses Islamic teachings regarding financial independence and responsibility. It emphasizes the Prophet Muhammad's advice against developing a habit of asking others for financial help, such as loans. The importance of being financially independent, which is more virtuous than dependency, is highlighted. It is suggested that one should first prioritize spending on dependents, like spouse and children, before considering charitable giving. The best kind of charity is defined as what remains beyond one's personal and familial needs. The video further explores the Quranic verse that cautions believers to maintain financial provision for their family, even after their demise, and warns against giving away all wealth in charity or mismanaging it. It conveys that while Allah provides for everyone's needs, individuals have a duty to actively seek financial stability through their efforts, while trusting in Allah's assistance. Moreover, leaving a sufficient inheritance is seen as essential to prevent dependents from facing hardship.

    they're not yet then to seek it and to
  • 00:03:10
    work and not sit and wait and use
  • 00:03:13
    justifications and excuses that Allah is
  • 00:03:15
    going to provide them without
  • 00:03:17
    moving and also not to beg and ask and
  • 00:03:19
    get out of that
  • 00:03:21
    habit and also that your family and
  • 00:03:24
    dependence are more worthy come in
  • 00:03:26
    priority and it is Haram to neglect them
  • 00:03:28
    even in the name of Charity to
  • 00:03:30
    others and that the best charity is to
  • 00:03:33
    your dependence first and then the next
  • 00:03:35
    best charity is what's left over of your
  • 00:03:37
    wealth to
  • 00:03:38
    others and that obligation towards your
  • 00:03:41
    family is a charity you get rewarded for
  • 00:03:44
    ab says to the prophet peace be upon him
  • 00:03:46
    who are those you said are the dependant
  • 00:03:48
    or messenger of Allah and he said your
  • 00:03:50
    wife so that your wife does not say my
  • 00:03:53
    husband you are you have neglected me so
  • 00:03:56
    leave me I can't live with you or your
  • 00:03:59
    child said says oh Father you have left
  • 00:04:02
    me Barren and vulnerable where do I go
  • 00:04:05
    these are the words of the Prophet
  • 00:04:06
    sallallahu alaihi wasallam Allah says in
  • 00:04:09
    the Quran in Surah number 4 verse 9 in
  • 00:04:12
    he says
  • 00:04:15
    [Laughter]
  • 00:04:30
    [Laughter]
  • 00:04:38
    and let them fear those
  • 00:04:40
    who if they would themselves leave
  • 00:04:43
    behind helpless children they would
  • 00:04:45
    surely have been fearful on their
  • 00:04:48
    account let them then fear Allah and
  • 00:04:50
    make the right statement what does this
  • 00:04:53
    verse mean Allah is telling us that
  • 00:04:56
    there is a legitimate fear of poverty
  • 00:05:01
    upon your children and your family if
  • 00:05:03
    you were to die and leave them behind
  • 00:05:06
    with no financial resources or wealth
  • 00:05:09
    that they can look after themselves when
  • 00:05:11
    you die this is a misconception among
  • 00:05:13
    Muslims where they say not this there is
  • 00:05:15
    a misconception among Muslims where they
  • 00:05:17
    say Allah will provide will provide them
  • 00:05:20
    it is absolutely true that Allah will
  • 00:05:22
    provide
  • 00:05:23
    them but Allah also has already provided
  • 00:05:27
    us these resources and the ability to
  • 00:05:30
    work and he commanded us to do that so
  • 00:05:33
    anything which Allah commands us to do
  • 00:05:35
    it means we take some of that
  • 00:05:37
    responsibility and the responsibility is
  • 00:05:39
    to do our part in the end if Allah
  • 00:05:42
    provides you from or doesn't that's in
  • 00:05:44
    the hands of Allah and everyone's
  • 00:05:47
    provision is written but you have to
  • 00:05:49
    still work towards it and even your
  • 00:05:51
    working towards it is written Allah
  • 00:05:53
    facilitates everything fairly and justly
  • 00:05:56
    and the meaning of this verse is that
  • 00:05:57
    some people when they before they die
  • 00:05:59
    they they want to donate and give in
  • 00:06:00
    charity all their wealth or they start
  • 00:06:03
    giving their wealth to certain people
  • 00:06:05
    than others or they name it for some of
  • 00:06:07
    their children rather than others or
  • 00:06:09
    they hide it or whatever it is Allah is
  • 00:06:11
    telling them let them fear that they
  • 00:06:14
    leave behind an offspring who will be
  • 00:06:17
    Barren and vulnerable so fear Allah do
  • 00:06:20
    you understand Allah did not say give
  • 00:06:23
    your wealth away and don't worry about
  • 00:06:24
    your children I will provide them no no
  • 00:06:25
    no providing comes in two ways that
  • 00:06:28
    Allah provides you without you asking
  • 00:06:31
    and he also provides you with you doing
  • 00:06:34
    the effort the Hadith Prophet is very
  • 00:06:36
    clear says Allah will assist the person
  • 00:06:38
    when they do the effort inheritance
  • 00:06:40
    therefore is
  • 00:06:41
    important and how can you leave behind
  • 00:06:45
    wealth for your children and family if
  • 00:06:46
    you yourself are not wealthy and you
  • 00:06:49
    yourself have not doesn't seek now we're
  • 00:06:51
    not talking about people around the
  • 00:06:52
    world who are disadvantaged because of
  • 00:06:54
    the the the oppression and Corruption of
