The first is the turning and the second is the standing. It is of utmost importance for us to realize that the two are connected.

When a person turns in a proper way, he will be accepted by the Almighty to spend in a proper way.

But when a person has turned in a clandestine manner, he has usurped the wealth of people, he has turned haram.

He will not be accepted to use that wealth in a correct way.

It won't be used for destruction, it won't be used for disunity, it won't be used for the split-up of his own family to have sickness and to have so many other issues.

This does not mean that if someone is ill or sick, that their wealth was haram. It does not mean that.

No, does it mean that if someone's family is split, that their wealth was haram. No, it is not a condition.

But it is only what we call a tickle list. If we have a debility, go back and change. It's a diagnostic period, all the system of diagnosis.

because even though we may engage in repenses, when we have wealth, for example, made up of interests, we need to get rid of it in order to be forgiven.

This is why in the Quran Allah SWT, he says,

If you are going to repent from having eaten interests, what you need to know is, what belongs to you is only the catheter, the excess, you need to get rid of it.

And that is when Allah SWT may Allah SWT grant us forgiveness through His mercy.

There is a narration where the Prophet of Allah SWT says, they will come a time towards the end of time and we are there already.

A person will not really be bothered whether what he has consumed was haral or haram.

Now this is very difficult, it is very dangerous.

The reason we say this is, haral is clear. Haram is clear.

That is the common Hadith that we know of, Muhammad Ibn Bashir, of Allah SWT, is a very famous Hadith,

where he says, the Prophet of Allah SWT says, that which is haral is very clear, that which is haram is very clear,
