b'Materialistic Greed & Rivalry A Tafs\\u012br Of S\\u016brat \\u02bel Tak\\u0101thur - Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on 24th May 2013 at Al Kawthar Academy (Leicester)\\n\\nVideo: https://youtu.be/-m7NTTQObJg\\n\\nShaytan\\u2019s insinuations and whispers of fear of poverty have driven man to relentlessly pursue the amassing and accumulation of wealth and glory. This has created a sense of selfishness and ingratitude in man resulting in aspirations for what others possess. One\\u2019s entire life becomes a life of greed and rivalry all with the intention of displaying ones worth and value and with the intent of becoming superior.\\n\\nThe commentary of this s\\u016brah condemns this attitude and calls for the realisation of the truth of existence. We are reminded not to be distracted by greed and rivalry in worldly material which will eventually destroy and envelop a person until death but rather appreciate the many favours we already possess.\\n\\nThe Messenger of All\\u0101h \\ufdfa outlines the true definition of a rich person in the following \\u1e25ad\\u012bth: \\n\\n\\u2018Wealth is not the wealth of possession & material. Wealth is the wealth of the richness of the heart\\u2019. [Bukh\\u0101r\\u012b]\\n\\nFrom this commentary, we also learn the many ways of becoming content and eliminating distress. We also learn the permissibly of competing with one another in matters of religion.\\n\\n**********************************************************************\\n\\nWebsite: www.akacademy.org/\\nYouTube: http://www.youtube.com/alkawtharacademy\\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/alkawtharacademy\\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/alkawthar\\nInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/alkawtharacademy\\nTunein: http://tunein.com/radio/Shaykh-Riyadh-ul-Haq-p615599/\\n\\n**********************************************************************'
