salam alaikum we're going to take a
break with my father here and babble
there's a story that he's uh shared with
me quite a few times and I thought that
you guys can go ahead and benefit from
this story Baba do you mind sharing the
story that uh you have told me a few
times with uh
everybody asalam alaykum
some long long time
ago I heard a story from the Mind
dentist but father and
son you know mostly
fathers those days also they was not
raising kids the way should be
whatever and then uh when
father father uh felt that he must
go he asked the
son son please can you do me a favor
looks like I going to go first so he was
about to die
yes and uh son
sure why not he ride already two
envelopes
close number one number two he say
here's a number one please
when I
die open up this number one and
read after they buried me from burial
open number two can you do this so sure
father
least
okay and short while after this one
father passed away and Son God knows
what he was thinking maybe he left a v
or something some hiding morning God
knows what he was thinking soon he open
number one dear
son please don't let them bury me
without
socks so son understand he went right
away and he bought a good
socks and the they was taking him his
father to wash him preparing for
burial
janaza and he went over there he told
those two guys who wash his
father says please you know this is my
father I will take care of you do me a
favor when you finish washing him put
those socks on him he said no no no we
we cannot do it why not this is my
father this is his wish
say no no sun that's mean tradition you
know of teaching of prophet Muhammad
Sall Ali wasallam we naked coming nak
can go no sucks no suits
nothing but if you call go over there
and ask this main
Imam you know maybe he he will okay I
don't
know and he went over there evening Imam
he explained what what's father
wish he said the same thing no no no
way this is we cannot break you know our
tradition you know no way no
no
and they buried his father with no socks
just the way should
be after burial he hurry up go over
there and open open this number
two guess what that's no will nothing
just
father's advisor
so so dear
son did you see they don't let you even
take the socks with you when you
die you
know and uh I like this uh
really advice to everybody
to think about it you
know when it comes time to go are we
really prepared you know this greediness
that's mean son was probably greedy and
you know this dun only dun only dun
father for sure teach him you know this
a the way I see you know
then Allah knows I don't know what's the
next how son end up
anyway I think that's good story that my
dentist in Sarai will tell me so the the
father was trying to teach the son a
lesson here that he was just mainly
focused on this dun acquiring money
wealth he wasn't living his purpose and
this was kind of a reminder that the the
father left for the son the little bit
that he can do to teach him a lesson
that uh all that wealth and money it's
going to stay behind exactly but what
but what you work for in this life the
currency that transfers over is when you
work to please your creator before the
time comes when you have to meet your
creator you will leave everything behind
and the only thing that you're going to
go ahead and take with you is your Deeds
your wealth and your family everything
stays behind but your belief what you
believed in this life and then what you
acted upon and those good deeds those
deeds of goodness that you planted those
will transfer over into the next so let
that be a reminder I hope this was a
good break want to share that story with
you and hopefully this can be of benefit
salam alaikum peace be with you
