Ramzan Me Fahash Gunahon Ke Nuqsanat | MTMSpeeches 🕋
In this video, Mufti Tariq Masood discusses the long-term consequences of indulging in sinful desires in youth (0:30). He emphasizes that temporary pleasures lead to lasting negative impacts and that desires, if not controlled in youth, intensify with age, even when the ability to fulfill them diminishes (2:25).
He references a Hadith (3:35) that states two desires—material greed and long-term worldly hopes—grow stronger as a person ages, rather than weakening. Mufti Masood clarifies that this Hadith doesn't mean these desires are newly created in old age but rather that if they aren't eradicated in youth, they will intensify.
He also explains the concept of "Isal-e-Sawab," or conveying rewards of good deeds to the deceased (9:22). He clarifies that while individual acts of charity for the deceased are permissible and virtuous (10:32), collective gatherings for this purpose are considered bid'ah (innovation) and are not supported by the practices of the Sahaba (companions of the Prophet) (13:13).
Mufti Masood concludes by reiterating that all negative desires, if not curtailed in youth, will increase with age, leading to greater distress (15:19). Conversely, good habits and love for Allah cultivated in youth will also strengthen in old age (16:02). He shares personal anecdotes of observing both greedy and generous elders to illustrate his points (16:28).
