Those who believe and believe that they are the ones who believe in Allah,

do not believe in Allah, do believe that they are the ones who believe in Allah.

Peace be upon you, and mercy be upon you, and upon your own eyes.

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Merciful, the Merciful, the Merciful, the Peace, and the Messenger of Allah,

and upon his family and his companions.

My brothers and sisters, nobody can achieve contentment until they spend from that which is very, very close to their hearts,

from that which they love, from that which is very dear to them, that which is material, obviously.

So Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala tells us in verse number 92 of Surat Ali Imran, Allah says,

You will not achieve righteousness until and unless you spend from that which you love.

What do you love? Whether it comes to your wealth, whether it comes to something you're deeply connected to,

or even just your time. SubhanAllah, people love their time.

Are you going to spend it in the right cause? Are you going to spend that time with Allah?

Are you going to spend that time with your family members, with others?

If you do, you will achieve contentment.

If you don't, perhaps you will lose that contentment.

When attachment to something material becomes too much, you lose contentment.

Because contentment is the ownership of Allah.

He will give it to whomsoever is close to Him.

You want to become close to Allah? Don't get too close to that which is besides Allah.

Yes, we love our cars, we love our houses, we love our clothes, we love our accessories, we love a few things.

But that love should never exceed the love of the Almighty.
