In this episode, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into the profound lessons from Surah Al-Kahf [18:44-46], where Allah presents a striking analogy about the fleeting nature of this world. Following the story of the wealthy gardener, the Quran shifts focus to a broader reflection on how worldly possessions—wealth, power and status—are like water that nourishes the earth, only to fade away over time.
Ustadh Nouman explores how misplaced trust in material success can lead to arrogance and delusion, and why true security lies in one’s relationship with Allah. He emphasizes the Quranic concept of Wilayah (patronage and protection) and explains why lasting success is found in Baqiyat As-Salihat—the good deeds that endure beyond this life. This session challenges us to rethink our priorities and see beyond the temporary nature of Dunya.
