Auto-generated transcript:My brothers and sisters, we come to the last question on the Day of Judgment. May Allah protect us from ourselves. In some ways, this is the most difficult one, especially in today's world. And this question is in two parts. Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la will ask us, what did you do with the wealth I gave you? And by wealth, don't imagine that this means a million dollars or more. Wealth is anything material that Allah gave us. Whether it was a million dollars or whether it was one dollar. The question will be, what did you do with the wealth I gave you? Where did you earn it from? How did you acquire this wealth? And where did you spend it? You might say, well, if Allah is saying, wealth I gave you, why am I being asked, where did I acquire it from? Because this is the thing in which we have been given ikhtiyar. We have been given the choice. The quantum of wealth Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la wrote for us. That is predestined. That is determined. That's not going to change. What Allah has written, Allah has written. That doesn't change because of this or that. But Allah gave us the freedom and the test for us to choose it, to choose to take it from any number of sources, which come to us. Sources which are legitimate and sources also which are illegitimate. And we have been given the choice. May Allah have mercy on us. This is a test. Sometimes the illegitimate choice seems to be much better than the legitimate choice. It's easier. It seems to give us more dividends. And then you will have, of course, the Shaitan and his agents in human form who are called financial advisors. financial advisors and such other nice names, bankers, who will tell you, take this halal wealth of yours and invest it in this scheme. And the scheme is haram. And of course they don't say haram in halal. See here's the scheme, which will give you 50 times the reward of that and reward of that. And look at this person, look at that person. He started as a rickshaw puller and today he owns 20 buildings and this is how he became rich. And may Allah have mercy on us, we fall into this trap. So how did you earn your wealth and how did you spend it? As I mentioned to you, the first and foremost thing to understand is that in all of these themes which I mentioned, which I remind myself and you, the four questions of the Day of Judgement. What did you do with your time? What did you do with your youth? What did you do with your knowledge? And what did you do with your wealth? In all of these four questions, Allah is not, please understand this, Allah is not asking us how much. Allah is not asking us how long did you live? No. Why did you not live for a hundred years? No. Because my lifespan is predetermined. Allah swt wrote for me whatever He wrote for me. 20, 30, 40, 50, whatever. I can't change it. I can't make it longer and I can't make it shorter. So that's one of the questions. Question is, whatever lifespan you had been given, what did you do with it? So it shows us that we don't have the capacity to choose. We don't have the ability to choose. We don't have the capacity to choose the duration of our life, how long we will live, but we have the capacity to choose how we will live. Will we live that life in obedience to Allah or will we live that life in disobedience to Allah? This is the choice we have. Today people try to fool you and say, you know, if you do this, you will have more lifetime and if you do this, your life will be extended. It's nothing extended. Allah swt, Allah wrote, Allah wrote. If you lead a healthy life, if you exercise, you eat right, stay away from substance abuse and so on, you live a life of goodness, so there's no stress in your mind and heart, then you will have the same lifespan, but you will have it beautiful. You will have the quality of your life will go up. And you will have a beautiful life. Of tranquility, of, you know, happiness, good friends and everything else because you
