Leaving a Legacy

Studies reveal that 70% of wealth is depleted by the first generation and 90% by the third. Many neglect the importance of a lasting legacy that pleases Allah, offering ongoing benefits and rewards after death-whether through ceaseless charity, imparting beneficial knowledge, or nurturing righteous descendants who pray for them.
Unlike worldly legacies, the hereafter holds eternal significance. Islam emphasizes initiating good deeds, ensuring that even after being forgotten by the third generation, one's contributions remain valuable in the eyes of Allah. Join us to explore the significance of deeds that never go in vain, no matter how big or small.

[@Btsarmy-ng1pl]

Insha Allah you will be able to do it, made dua for you❤

[@Nobody-yq9fk]

Surah Baqarah 186 And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me [by obedience] and believe in Me that they may be [rightly] guided.

[@Btsarmy-ng1pl]

Also in return can you pray that Allah doesn't let me down?

May Allah be pleased with Sheikh Belal Assad ❤ Ameen! he honestly helped me change my life and be a better Muslim. I was in a dark place and there was no hope. I came across one of his talks on Islam channel many years ago it was the prophet series. I searched his name thankfully and found all his khutbas. Truly eloquent in his speech and humble man Allah humma barik lahu. May Allah unite him with his loved ones in Jannah and keep him happy here and in the next life to Ameen.

Can everyone who's reading this comment make dua for me, ive been feeling down lately and feel like Allah is not happy with me because ive been making dua and feel like He isnt answering, Can you pray that Allah grants me everything that im asking for in this duniya in abundance and that He gives me the serenity to trust His timing?

[@TheOne-uc9rz]

We can make dua for you but it’s also important for you to do it and follow through with actions. Also a tip, try and always send blessings upon Muhammad saw before making a dua or in general. Because there’s an authentic Hadith where Umar RA states, “Verily, the supplication is suspended between the heavens and the earth. Nothing ascends from it until you send blessings upon your Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.” Source: Sunan al-Tirmidhī 486

[@dessy844]

As- salamu alaikum Good Morning everyone. How are you Mr Belal? Thank you and may Allah rewards you for the much needed knowledge you are sharing with us. 12:39 and 27:04 I view lectures like yours as a virtual classroom where I, we learn from one another, sharing comments as if we were all talking in a classroom - with respect and consideration of others. Some times the problem with influencing others is the carelessness of our words, how we respond to comments.. Counter argument that is meaningless . How wise of Islam, is that : silent is better if we have nothing good to say. Allah knows best.. If you don't mind i would like to add a very important point out of : Leaving A Legacy that is : A will ( Wasiyyah) or in America we call it : Last Will and Testament. Let me copy and share what is a Will / Wasiyyah, A will is made for the purposes of arranging ones property and assets, after their death, for the benefit of others or for charitable purposes. Writing Islamic wills is incredibly important in an Islamic context. From my reading i find out that in non Muslims country - Wasiyyah likely denied at their Court of Law because the calculations and who's gets what of the wealth is different. Mr Belal, if you have times in the future to share more of Wasiyyah as the continuation of this lecture, insha Allah . Last week lectures about Sabr and Wasiyyah are two important components that many Muslims are not really familiar or no knowledge of. If you think of a legacy, think of how many amazing Muslims family torn apart because of Wasiyyah, the father died and he did the best to divide his wealth accordingly through Islam context, but his children end up fighting over some property or money they feel they deserve to received. The importance of writing A will where there are significant amount of wealth - large enough to be distributed among family members and discussing these matters of Wasiyyah prior to the death of a Muslims with his family . All of this are crucial to continues a legacy, one that is not only inspirational ,wealth can also lift a spirit for family members who's struggling or poor , wealth can be the reason for him or her to better their lives, opening new opportunity, and multiply that wealth through halal businesses that at the end created a legacy that pass on to next generation. Wallahu A'lam bishawab No,... No panadols for today 😅😅 I wish you all the very best and insha Allah i shall see you in the next lecture.. My best wishes to your loved ones ❤

[@goodmood1498]

Assalamualikum, I have a question.The thing is - if you want to get married in China, you need a matchmaker to act as an intermediary to introduce the man and woman. The custom is to first take the gift money (it is the money for the gift, not مهر) and go to the woman's house to explain the man's situation and then both parties agree. However, neither party has the testimony of إيجاب and قبول nor directly. If the marriage is just an engagement and the man regrets the engagement after a period of time, is this considered a real marriage? If it is a formal marriage, the man has to give half of the woman's money. If it is not considered a formal marriage, the woman has to return the man's money. This question is the opposite here, so I don't understand it.
