00:00May the peace, blessings, and mercy of God be upon you

00:06The story I am going to tell now is a fictional story and has no specific author.

00:12It is said that Satan looked at what people were doing and saw that he no longer had a role to play in tempting them.

00:22And that humans had surpassed him in their cunning and sins, so he suddenly decided to retire.

00:30The devil went to the market carrying his tools and weapons that he used to empower people.

00:39Like greed, lineage, lying, betrayal, treachery, etc.

00:46Put all these tools on the market for sale.

00:50But there was one tool that seemed to be used more than the others.

00:58Despite this, it was the most expensive.

01:02People asked him about this tool.

01:05Why is it so expensive?

01:08Even though it looks old

01:10The devil told them that it was a weapon of frustration, despair and hopelessness.

01:18It looks old because of how often I used this weapon.

01:24Because it is a weapon that works and pays off every time I use it.

01:30No other weapon has been as successful as this one.

01:35Yes, frustration is a deadly weapon.

01:41Feeling hopeless and hopeless in life is the worst thing that can destroy a person's life.

01:48And it also destroys his afterlife.

01:51Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah.

01:57God forgives all sins

02:00He is the Forgiving, the Most Merciful.

02:02May God bless him and grant him peace

02:04This is what some people do when they are filled with envy and jealousy towards other people.

02:12Those who succeeded in something that they could not achieve

02:17They are trying to discourage them.

02:20And by making them feel that all their efforts are in vain

02:24It is of no use

02:26And they and they

02:27until they get frustrated

02:30and despair

02:32And despair

02:33And here is the end

02:36Because then the person is in his most psychological state

02:41And he is prepared for all kinds of sins and transgressions.

02:45This is what the devil wants.

02:48To see a person sad

02:50depressed

02:51frustrated

02:52desperate about everything

02:54Despairing of everything

02:56This is his greatest victory.

02:58The greatest defeat of Satan

03:01To see a person optimistic

03:03happy

03:04Because this means that

03:07Even if he wasn't close to God at the time

03:10Hope is great and existing

03:13To get closer to God one day

03:16That is why the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:

03:19strong believer

03:20Better and more beloved to God than a weak believer

03:24And strength here is not only physical strength

03:29Rather, the power of the mind, the power of will, the power of the spirit, and the power of faith.

03:36Victory over Satan begins with optimism and not despairing and desponding.

03:42And the eternal hope for relief coming from God, who says in Surat Al-Sharh:

03:47For with hardship comes ease

03:50With hardship comes ease

03:52God mentioned hardship twice as a definite noun, meaning it is the same hardship.

03:58The word “ease” was mentioned twice indefinitely, meaning that it is not the same as “ease.”

04:04It is not possible for one hardship to overcome two eases.

04:10Be optimistic and you will find it

04:14As the poet said, it became tight, but when its rings became tight, it opened up.

04:20I thought you wouldn't release it.

04:23Happy Ramadan

04:24May the peace, blessings, and mercy of God be upon you

04:26Think of your duty as you think of your right

04:32Work to achieve perfection

04:36Not seeking fame or reward

04:39Do not expect more from people than they have the right to expect from you.
