The Provider, Ar-Razzaaq
00:32 Verse from surah Adh-Dhariyat Quran 51 : 56
00:42 Verse from surah Adh-Dhariyat 51 : 57
00:52 Verse from surah Adh-Dhariyat 51 : 58
1:00 English translation of the verses Quran 51:56-58
2:51 "No person will die until their provision and sustenance which was written for them reaches them."
3:20 "…the most beautiful sustenance and provision that He gives anyone more than wealth, more than health, more than family, more than anything is… something which the majority of people don't have, and it is called… (qanaa'a) which means content."
3:38 "To be content with what you have will," … "opens the door to so much provision from places you never expected and to rely on Allah."
You can't be content unless you rely on Allah and know that nothing will miss you except that you will receive it which Allah has written."
4:06 What the Prophet (saw) said about never enough.
7:00 Rizq is more than money. Sustenance is: your health, your mind, your ability to have strength, the ability to see your family, if you have a good spouse, nice children, shelter over your head, you have networks, "and most important of them is your faith", your beliefs. And knowledge of what you're here for and where you are going. "Your connection with your creator.",
7:58 "This is sustenance to know your purpose."
8:44 Sustenance is "Even the love that Allah gives you towards someone and someone loving you."
10:52 "If you can connect this world with the hereafter, everything changes.", "… if you cannot connect this world with the hereafter, nothing makes sense."
Nothing makes sense if you cannot connect this world with the hereafter.
11:40 "The second part of Rizq is also what He withheld."
12:48 Verse from surah Al Hajj 22 : 58
13:20 Allah’s provision is not restricted to this world.
13:55 “… the provision of Allah in the hereafter is far greater than you can imagine of this world.”
16:58 About Prophet Isa (as) (Jesus, Son of Mary)
17:00 Prophet Isa’s prayer (Jesus, Son of Mary):
“Oh Allah, our Lord, send us from heaven a table, spread with food as a feast for us.
The first and the last of us and as a sign from you.
Provide for us, You are indeed the best Provider.”
17:47 Why do we say Allahu Akbar?
18:10 Excellent description on what Allah wants for us.
“Allah wants to put us in a mindset of connecting to Him. One of his name is Ar-Razzaaq, the Provider. To put your mindset at ease and through that your abundance grows.”
"Through the ease of the mind abundance grows. Throughout the ease of the mind and focusing on this, what you already have, even if it’s a little bit, will seem like a mountain. And if you don’t have it, then what seems like what is a mountain will seem like a pebble.”
19:34 "Allah swt is the Provider, meaning:
– [ ] That Allah is the Ultimate Provider and Sustainer
– [ ] He is the Source of every Provision
– [ ] He is the Creator of every Provision
– [ ] He is the Creator of the means which guides you to your provision.
– [ ] He grants Provision to whomsoever He wills beyond all measures
– [ ] He is the Guarantor of delivering every provision
– [ ] And the One who makes it blessed or unblessed (fe food and water) "
20:34 “It means that Allah distributes the provision according to his wisdom.”
22:19 “He may open for some and restrict for others. Within His wisdom he provides for the believer and the disbeliever.”
24:50 “… I looked around your house. Ceasar, the King of Rome, and the king of Persia are reclining on beds of silk and woven wooden. And they eat from the most exotic and exquisite meals and they have gold and silver all around them and they dress with the most greatest of silk and so on and you, ya Rasoolu Allah, the Messenger of Allah, the best of his creation, right now. I look around your room and you’re in this…” 25:25
26:25 Prophet Muhammad (saw) “All they are going to get is this (dunya) and for us is the hereafter.”
28:45 The difference between Rizq and Ni’ma: Rizq is sustenance and provision, He gives it to everybody. He is Fair and Just.
Ni’ma means blessing. “Blessing means whether you have a lot or a little bit, it is blessed.
Doesn’t matter what you have, it is blessed. Your sickness is blessed. Your lack of wealth is blessed.”
“It means when your blessings come from halal…” – “Allah provides you opportunities to earn your risk from halal. That’s the first sign that it is a blessing.”
“Any wealth that comes from haram…” – “even if it is a lot, it is not blessed.”
31:00 “And the Ni’ma that is blessed, you feel the love of Allah through it. That is for you in this life, you enjoy it. You don’t feel guilty about it. And in the hereafter, you will be given even more.”
“Baraka means when something stays.”
31:20 The meaning behind the word ‘baraka’ in the Arabic language is explained by means of an example of Arabs and their tied camels.
32:48 About how Rizq will come to you.

"Never underestimate the power of a single good deed combined with a sincere du'a (supplication). Whenever you do a good deed—no matter how small, whether it's helping your mother or controlling your anger—pray to Allah to multiply it infinitely. Ask Him to make this one deed so heavy on your Scale (Mizan) that it wipes away all your major sins, granting you such an immense reward that you receive its blessings in both this world and the Hereafter, and becomes the means for you to enter Jannat-ul-Firdaus without any reckoning. We worship an All-Powerful Lord; so whenever you ask for His reward, do not hold yourself back. Ask directly for the highest level of Paradise! 🤲🏽✨"

One famous dua attributed to Sa’d ibn Ubadah is:
اللَّهُمَّ هَبْ لِي حَمْدًا، وَهَبْ لِي مَجْدًا، وَلَا مَجْدَ إِلَّا بِفِعَالٍ، وَلَا فِعَالَ إِلَّا بِمَالٍ، اللَّهُمَّ لَا يُصْلِحُنِي الْقَلِيلُ، وَلَا أَصْلُحُ عَلَيْهِ
Transliteration:
Allahumma hab lī ḥamdan, wa hab lī majdā, wa lā majda illā bi-fiʿālin, wa lā fiʿāla illā bi-mālin. Allahumma lā yuṣliḥunī al-qalīlu wa lā aṣluḥu ʿalayh.
Meaning:
“O Allah, grant me praise and honor. There is no honor except through good deeds, and no good deeds except with wealth. O Allah, little wealth does not suffice for me, nor am I suited to it.”
May Allah bless this Ummah with the rizq of unity and love and open the doors of abundance and sustenance for everyone.
The famous parable of 'The businessman and the fisherman' precisely captures this concept that contentment is not based on material success alone, and the end goal we run after might already be in the present. Sometimes the most dissatified souls reside in big luxurious houses. While cheer and joy can be heard from the most humble generous abodes.
The experiment you mentioned Sheikh, Mouse Utopia Experiment by John B. Calhoun’s, I read this a couple of months ago while reading about Didier Desor's experiment on Social Roles and I was interested in how you would reference these. Got my answer for one of them. A knowledgeable teacher and suhbah of the righteous is also a ni'mah.
I love this sheikh
