EXPENSIVE TASTE


I HAVE A VERY BAD HABIT OF EATING AT RESTURANTS ALL THE TIME,,

LEVANT IS MY REGULAR AND FAV AND I CAN SPEND HUNDREDS IN THERE,

KNIGHTSBRIDGE JOURY, SHEHZAD IS MY OTHER FAV,,,

EDGWARE ROAD, MAROUSH GARDENS SOMETIMES) ,,,,

FULHAM BROADWAY, BLUE ELEPHANT THAI FOOD I ADORE,,,,,
GOLDEN CHINA,,,,,,,,, I CAN GO ON AND ON AND ON,,,,,

I HARDLY EAT AT HOME OR COOK AND I AM KNOWN FOR MY GOOD COOKING SKILLS AND A SPOTLESS KITCHEN(MOUNIKA CLEAN AND UNTOUCHED)

RECENTLY WITH THE EARTHQUAKE,,I REALISED THAT I CAN GET THE SAME FOOD, FOR HALF THE BILL AND THE REST OF THE MONEY I CAN DONATE TO PAKISTAN!!!

MY LITTLE BROTHER TOLD ME THAT, IT MAKES ALLAH UNHAPPY WHEN WE SPEND OUR MONEY FOOLISHLY AND LOADS OF PEOPLE CAN BE FED WITH THE MONEY I SPEND LAVISHLY AT TOP RESTAURANTS,,, FEEDING MYSELF AND MY MATES AND THEM FEEDING ME....!!!

THINK ABOUT IT!!!

WHERE DO YOU WASTE YOUR MONEY????

imagine this,,, i buy a designer coat for ?400-500,, i could maybe get a coat for ?100/150,,,,, the rest of the money of i sent to charity i could maybe get 6/7 coats for people in Pakistan,,,,,, bear in mind any money we give to Zakat or Sadka(charity) gives us a bigger award!!!

story;;;;;
they was a poor man who was so hungry, he asked Allah,"please give me all the food(rizak) now that you are going to give me in my whole life"
Allah granted his wish and gave him all the food he would of had for his whole life in one day, the man was so happy he distributed the food to everyone in the village and ate himself.
The people were happy and they had such a big feast and the man was grateful to Allah!
Now Allah watched him and Allah thought, I gave this man all the food and his distributed it to my people, now his put a burden, debt on me.
Allah gave that man now more rishak as he had not been greedy and had shared everything he got!!

SO if we think about it.....When we give charity, we are helping our own human, then it makes Allah give us more and more,, on judgment day, all the charity you also help your sins get less as you have helped people in need, you'll be getting loads of dua!!!!

Same Place as you Missy. Levant is one of my favourites too. Recently been wasting money at coccoon far too much as well and Selfridges is like my second home!! );
Your brothers words are wise though, it is a cause for concern and it really does make you think. I should reel things in a bit.
