This is one of the also destructive sins of the heart and we ask Allahh to protect us from it. And this hassad is mentioned in the Quran and in the sunnah of the prophetatam. And there are many texts about it which shows how evil it is. One of which the prophetat clearly he said do not hate one another do not envy one another do not turn your back to one another and be oh servants of Allah brothers. And the meaning of said that means do not take the means that would make you hate each other. Do not do the things or take the means that would make you envy one another. Let along envy one another. So the the arrogance thatl he did and he refused to prostrate to Adam. The origin of it was envy. He envied Adam. that how can I make sjud and to honor this creation of Allah subhana wa ta'ala when he's created from mud and he said I'm created from fire so this is what led him to be kicked out of the mercy of Allah subhana wa t'ala so this someone that is envious to other to others he's living a life of misery right so he's always receiving the worst from the human beings and from the angels they curse him and and he receives the anger of Allah subhana wa ta'ala and he's always miserable because he thinks that everybody's better than him. He's looking at everybody you know wishing that they can lose all of their goodness in them and so on. And that's why the the meaning of alass or what alassad is or envy is is for the person to hate so much that people have something that he doesn't have. So he wish for them to lose it. It gives him joy when he sees people losing something that Allah bestowed upon them. And that's why there's two types of it. One of which is that he hates the favor and he wants that to be removed from the one that he receives it. The other one is that or the other type of it he doesn't want for the person to lose that favor of Allah subhana tala and he doesn't hate that it's present but he wants for himself the like of it right so there's two types of and it's called and so the first one which is completely condemned and it's not permissible is for a person to see someone has something that Allah bestowed upon him, knowledge, uh, wealth, car, house, child, whatever there is. And he would wish that that person would lose it. Makes him feel bad that someone has something and he doesn't. So he wish in his heart that that person loses it. This is a major sin. The second type which is the which is he wants them to keep the favors of Allah. Does not envy them in that sense, but he wants the like of it for himself. Is that permissible? That second one is only permissible in two things as the hadith of the prophetat wasallam. So the second one which is the prophetat he said in the there's no valid or envy except in two cases. So this is the two cases only these two cases is permissible for the second type which is the first one a man that Allahh gave him wealth he spend it in matters of the truth and goodness so a person would say I wish I can have the same and the like of him so that I can spend it for charity and so on that's permissible without him losing it and a man Allahh gave him knowledge. So he's acting upon his knowledge and he's teaching people the knowledge. So someone would say I wish I have the same thing without that person loses this great favor that Allah subhana t bestowed upon them. This is permissible. Other than that is not permissible. You have to push it away from your heart. It's a normal thing to find it in your heart but you need to push it away from your heart. Meaning if you see someone have a nice house or very rich and you wish that you have the like and the same as he has without him losing it. Is that permissible? The answer is no. Because the prophetat said but there's no envy except in two types only. But then it's a normal thing that you would find that feeling inside of you. Once it comes into your heart push it away think of the end of things. Be grateful to Allah subhana tala and as the prophetat wasam said look at those who are under under you those who are less than you because so that you don't have ungratefulness to the favors of Allah subhana tala so again these two types of the first one which is haram and all means and and ways where a person would wish for someone to lose a favor that Allah subhana t bestowed upon him and this is what the hassad means here and this a sign that a person does not believe even in the of Allah subhana wa ta'ala and the favors of Allah subhana wa t'ala upon the person are so many and that's why if if it's a religious favor of Allah subhana wa t'ala matters of of Allah subhana wa t'ala or a matter of virtue you know of wealth spending wealth for the sake of Allah subhana wa ta'ala you know or something that is permissive person has something that is permissible. There's no harm in this whatsoever. But again to limit oneself and to have the heart instead to ask Allahh from his bounty come in ask Allahh from his bounty instead of being busy people looking at others and wishing that they have what others have. This is something that is foolish and it brings the wrath of Allahhana upon them when the hearts supposed to have this purity and goodness towards everyone. And that's why when they talk about you know some of the means or why this happens to the person to be envious of others is enmity is hatred. They hate one another. They have enmity in their heart. So as a result of that they would have hassad or envy the impurity the wickedness of oneself and the stinginess of oneself that a person does not look at the treasures of Allah. Allahh is the most rich you know. So some people they have this wickedness inside of them it's very difficult for them to see someone in such a good state and for someone is happy for example and they look at themselves why am I miserable and this person is happy you know things like this instead of being grateful to Allah and ask Allah subhana tala to bestow his favor upon others and ask Allahh for the baraka to be as we will talk about that inshallah tala also it's the the something in some of the humans where they don't like for anyone to be above them. They want to be better than everyone you know and for a person to leave the matter to Allah subhana wa ta'ala and to humble oneself to Allahhana tala this is the cure of course so when someone sees these types of things or see you know have these types of diseases in the hearts that leads to the envy this is something that is so evil Allahh warn those who do the hass of a severe punishment for them in the hereafter how to cure oneself from this this is What we will discuss inshallah tala next time [Music] to [Music]
