May Allaah reward all who contributed in bringing this lecture to me. Regrettably, the Sheikh did not explain enough about the beautiful concepts of Qanaat and Tawakkul. We have been so impressed by hedonistic lifestyle and have been following it mostly unconsciously for centuries that we have forgotten & have lost our most fundamental of principles and virtues. Without Qanaat as one of our basic operating principles we will never be able to follow the Deen of Islam. NEVER. IMPOSSIBLE.
As a joke I used to say to my friends that your teacher and master used to be the laziest student in my class!! Mashallah this sheikh puts in shame all the great Christians motivational talkers. Islam is a powerfull thing. I have NOTHING in this earthly life but have always thought of myself as someone very special just because I practice Islam to the best of my abilities. May Allah reward you for spreading these messages.
