Nothing worthy is easy. Prepare for hardship
Jazakallahu khairan ya Abu mus'ab, may Allah reward you abundantly. I needed to hear every single word of this lecture, really benefitted. I love your straight forward approach always, you don't sugarcoat, don't waste time.
Very beneficial and very timely! BarakaAllahu Feekum!
Jazakallahu Khayran ustadh

جزاك الله خيرا استاذ
I switched to Samsung after using iPhone for years, feels good
You just couldn’t use iPhone well
@r_osimi Haha what a coping mechanism. I have been using iphones for 8 years, I know features in it that you might've never even heard about
@@azrael6685akhi I would say it’s overpriced, iPhone and Samsung have similar price with phones, if you look from where I am from in Canada samesung 23ulra is 1,889
And iPhone 15 pro max is 1749, they are similar
@@azrael6685and it’s same with tables and watches
My first phone was Iphone 6s. Switched to android after, never looked back.
This was an absolutely amazing reminder throughout & very very needed in the current time. Especially as I just made some changes to my own brand to be more in alignment with deen and it's definitely a big test of Tawakkul. Baarakallaahu feekum.. please talk more on this topic if you can!
Glad it was helpful!
Allahumma Baarik
baraak Allahoefiek!
This was fantastic allahumma barik. VERY beneficial and very interesting !
16:34 Summary of Lecture:
1. Establish Tawheed (Get rid of shirk)
2. Be good to parents
People don’t have their priorities straight. Do people believe that the key to success are these two things? Tawheed and being good to parents?
If we were told that we would get 10 million dollars for being good to our parents everyday. How would we react differently with our parents?
17:40 There is a thing called tawfeeq and barakah - with barakah, you don’t need to be the highest earning person in the company. ٱللَّٰه will put blessings in your money. It will go far.
Barakallahu Feek
Jazzakum Allah khair brothers
Salam❤
Jazak Allahu khair for this lecture. If possible, can you attach a short pdf or word document with your videos mentioning the key points discussed or atleast the ahadeeth and ayat discussed, so we could refer to them later as well. They dont have to be thoroughly organised, even the notes you refer to during the video will be good, just a text reference for the points discussed for studying later
22:05 - Top employee - Study your religion for 1-2 hours
30:16 The world we live in has prejudices due to nationality, race, accent, passport, etc.
If ٱللَّٰه wants to grant you success, you will be successful regardless of the prejudices in this world.
-If you have sound tawheed, you tried and failed.
-Say ALHUMDULILLAH
-Be grateful to ٱللَّٰه
-Think well of ٱللَّٰه
-Ask ٱللَّٰه for help
I.m here in Korea, the land of Samsung. I should apply for a job in Samsung here probably
😎
I have had enough with Apple, but using it only because of the eco system (ipad, mac etc) integration
We have a much vaster ecosystem.
Now we know how to get hired by you ya Ustaadh 😄
Abu Mussab please you said(29:13) that you were going to elaborate on on the issue regarding handshaking, but I think you forgot or didnt have the time. I watched until the end of the Live. Please make a video about this issue for us who live in the west.
* The interviewer are the opposite gender. If you know beforehand should you just decline the interview and not go?
* What if you go to a interview and you see that the only person interviewing you is the opposite gender and they close the door so that the only persons are you two in the room. Should we ask if it possible to hold the door open? Should we just go and decline the interview?
* You got the job and its the first day at work and you will meet all your colleagues. Some of them are the opposite gender. How to be smart and avoid embarassing situations (handshaking) when greeting a new co-workers and others are watching? Should we tell the non muslim boss to communicate beforehand to the others?
JazakhAllahu khayran! :)
More specifically in the tech industry!
An option is to not shake anyone's hand, male or female. In many industries, handshaking is not a part of the culture, especially post CV. Just say I prefer not to shake hands.
@@AbuJamilah That is good advice. JazakhAllahu khayran akhi
Akhi how can i apply this with a sport i love and i want to be really good at and working out and islamic studies and i got work and school and i want to do islamic studies and also i want to study some particular worldy topics i am interested in and learn arabic how to balance
As-salamu alaykum Brother. May Allah bless you for this.
Only Allah knows but I doubt I'll ever work in the marketing department because it's the totally opposite of my personality. I am used to do things last minute but I am the introverted type and where I work, I am the youngest man and we are three Muslim men(who aren't as openly practicing as me). I tend to avoid debates and I feel like I have lost opportunities to do Da'wah because of that.
How do you develop that ability to "promote yourself"?
Ither one or the other...in these times.. you can be a religious rockstar or a rich moderate religious...it's rear to be both.
Is it permissble for wimen to work in mixed settings as long as they are not mixing 24/7 and not engaging in casual talm unrelated to work? For eg female doctros or professors who may have male colleagues
Ask ur questions at the end of live classes on fridays n Saturdays
At 43:27
Usdath you forgot to add the time for praying salah in congregation ?
I apologize.
@@OneWayToParadise بارك الله فيك
جزاکم اللہ خیرا
Usdath; this lecture was very helpful
All good he has mentioned it in other vids
@ 1:15:20 - is the apple logo derived from the "forbidden fruit" story?
1:15:23 - this was just tooo funyy!!!!
I woulda convinced you that your glasses are dirty to sell you the box of tissues lol. "Until when will you keep using your shirt to clean them glasses mr. Akkari".
Edit: nevertheless, extremely enlightening lecture jazakAllahu khayr. I come from an extremely spoiled and lazy background, weak personality, and anxiety. I've been keen on improvement deen, career, and personality wise. No excuses inshaAllah.
But I have never used my shirt to clean my glasses. I actually have dedicated cleaning cloths spread out in my clothes and pockets in order to ensure I have one to use wherever I may be. You would have failed miserably had you told me that lol.
@OneWayToParadise that woulda been so awkward. Good thing it's only in my head
Brother, I work as a chat support executive for 9 hours a day, and my break time is limited and depends on my manager's permission. The Salafi mosque is very far from my home, so I am unable to pray in congregation and on time. This has caused me to feel low in faith and I am unable to find khushu (concentration) when praying at home. Please advise.
You are not obliged to attend the congregation if you can not hear the Athaan being called without the use of loud speakers....
@@OneWayToParadiseThank you so much for your response akhi, I do hear the adhan but it's from the Barelvi, Deobandi masaajid.
Then pray at that Masjid.
@@OneWayToParadise Got it, Thank you for your valuable time and advice.
@@OneWayToParadiseUstad, I wanted to add that the company that I work in has a majority of its customers Hindus they have several festivals based upon idol worship, and their number of food orders extremely increased these days orders include foods specific to their fasting rituals, etc. Any advice related to this, please?
Bin salman is Salafi ~Shamsi 2023
Alhamdulillah
Bin Salman is taghoot he changes Shariah makes haram Halal
@@sdzfxvbdrfgfsedgthrfgc4958your comment is as useless as your username
Bin Salman knows the religion way better than you and the guy is way beyond above your pay grade.
So Chill out layman!!😂😂
@@Aman_Hanbali bin Salman is no good
Ive recently started to hate apple, iPhones are absolutely terrible, Samsung is most preferable 👍
I switched to samsung after being an iphone user for 8 years, feels good
I use both
But akhi an apple a day keeps the doctor away
@@mohammadiaa bruh 💀
In the end of the day whatever phone we use rather benefit us or against us in the day of resurrection. Allahul Musta’an.
Btw I used iPhone more then 10 years but I don’t really know that actually we can do many things. Since Samsung Z flip came in the market it’s seem so cute then i tried using Z flip 3 but my iPhone 12 Pro Max still be my main phone. After 3 months I gave up using samsung. Maybe because I like simplicity so using iPhone was easier for me to study and using only WhatsApp for communication. But here actually Samsung price is much cheaper than the latest iphone. As for other products so far Samsung is better like washing machine, fridge, atc.
I'm sure Jingo is going to sell his iPhone and buy a Samsung foldable one.
