| 0:30.0 | The Muslims come out, the people who smoke and all the smoke comes up and so many other ways that people are polluting the earth. |
| 0:40.0 | They throw their rubbish without recycling it. They might throw it in the river. They litter the place. |
| 0:46.0 | They don't care about other people and they don't care about the future at all. |
| 0:51.0 | They don't think for a moment that tomorrow what might happen to this world? |
| 0:56.0 | I am sharing this world with so many other creatures. Imagine throwing a plastic into the drain and it clogs the drain. |
| 1:04.0 | It causes a problem for people down the line and it might find its way into the river or into the sea. |
| 1:10.0 | Then you have a fish that may be swallowed the plastic and SubhanAllah one wonders the fish might die or any other creature, even the other animals that might be eating. |
| 1:20.0 | Then they eat up the plastic. That's why we say don't throw the plastic down the drain. You rather throw it into the bin and try and use that which you can recycle. |
| 1:30.0 | Once you've used it they can make it into something else and someone else can use it as well. That's the best thing. |
| 1:38.0 | We are taught by Allah to be conscious of meaning to constantly think of the fact that I am not the only one on earth. |
| 1:45.0 | This is why when you eat, eat but don't waste. Don't eat too much. Don't eat too much. Sometimes we are hungry. |
| 1:53.0 | We see the food and your mum says what would you like to eat? And you say I will have four burgers. |
| 1:58.0 | Four burgers? You won't even be able to have half a burger. So why don't you start with one and if you are still hungry you can have another one. |
| 2:06.0 | The same applies if you are dishing out in your plate some food. You don't just take and take and take and fill your plate that it looks like the main dishing out bowl. |
| 2:14.0 | No, that's not how it should be. You should take a little bit and if you want you take again because you are thinking of the others as well. |
| 2:21.0 | And don't waste your food. When you are finished eating you need to look at whatever is left over and think about what's going to happen to that food. |
| 2:31.0 | Are you going to eat it tonight or tomorrow maybe? It's not wrong to eat food that you ate perhaps at lunch and have it again. |
| 2:38.0 | You warm it up and have it again for supper. It's not wrong to do that but some people don't do that. It's okay. |
| 2:45.0 | So long as you don't waste it you don't just throw it in the bin. You need to pack it or you need to think about the poor people around and how I can give this to them. |
| 2:54.0 | And if you are living in a country where you cannot do that then tell your mum to cook less. |
| 2:59.0 | Or tell your dad or whoever is going to order food if you are eating takeaways to order less. You rather order less and finish the food. |
