I'm told may Allah bless them all and bless every one of us and I'm sure every single one of us

Has so much of goodness within us and I'm sure each one of us feels that in shah Allah we can do much more

I want to start off by mentioning something interesting that I thought about while half of emran was speaking

I was on a flight that was coming in from Monrovia to Freetown a few weeks ago and we were flying from Freetown to Accra

And they happy to be a brother seated next to me and we got chatting Muslim brother from Liberia

Salam alaykum Sheikh, how are you so nice to see you etc and we were speaking and I told him you know people get excited when they see me when they

Hear about me. They sometimes go beyond the limit and my father may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala grant him good health and a long life to keep on doing the good he is doing

He always reminds me. You know what you are just a number

That's it. Don't ever think that you're better than the people you're speaking to and don't ever think that you're higher than anyone else

Because if that's the case, you will never be able to reach their hearts

Speak as though they are better than you and you just need to get a message to them

So I was telling this brother that I want to learn something from you. Tell me tell me something that I can take to people

And he looked at me and he said something amazing. He said look. I'm a businessman

Mashallah. I'm here seated on this flight. I fly every week and he says

Every time I think about how I started how we were when we were young and I want you to pose for a moment and every one of you think about

Yourselves or your fathers or grandfathers where they started there must have been a time when they could not afford shoes

I'm sure you all know that right there was a time perhaps when they could not afford school fees, okay?

But they were much more content than us and we today are sitting here such a beautiful function

Subhanallah and still we have more complaints than all of them put together

We complain more than what we used to when we did not have

Because that's how materialism works when you run behind the dunya. Guess what?
