But how come sinful people non believers all have job and better life than people who sometimes sins ? I'm not denying what this video says , I have learnt it already and believe it ,but just wish to know. How come that has happened. Maybe their (those siners ) gains non hallal , or what ? It kind of confusing and SubhanAllah it can also maybe make some Muslims to believe that isn't important to obeying right way .
Wealth and Poverty are no Signs of One's Acceptance or Rejection فَأَمَّا الْإِنسَانُ إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَأَكْرَمَهُ وَنَعَّمَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَكْرَمَنِ ۔ وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ (As for man, when his Lord tests him, and thus gives him honour and bounties, he says, "My Lord has honoured me. But when he tests him, and thus straitens his provision for him, he says, "My Lord has disgraced me...89:15-16). The word 'man' here primarily refers to an 'unbelieving man' who may form any thought about Allah as he feels like, but in its general sense, the word may include a Muslim as well who has the same thought as an unbeliever. When Allah gives abundant wealth and good health to such people, the devil puts into their head two false ideas. First, they succumb to their baser instincts; they become haughty and arrogant; and they think that the wealth and health is the result of their superior intellect, personal capability, efforts and achievement. Secondly, they think that they are enjoying a favourable status with Allah. If they did not enjoy the favourable position with Him, they would not have been granted such an abundance of wealth. By the same token, if Allah curtails their sustenance i.e. they suffer some degree of poverty, they regard it as a curse from Allah, and complain that He is humiliating or dishonouring them, while they deserved honour and respect. The unbelievers and idolaters do hold such thoughts and ideas, as the Qur'an has pointed out on many occasions, but it is regrettable that many Muslims nowadays fall into similar ideas. Allah refutes man's belief by the expression کَلَّا Kalla 'No/never!' The matter is not as he claims. Wealth does not indicate acceptance of a man by Allah, nor does poverty indicate rejection. [ For indeed Allah gives wealth to those whom He loves and those whom He does not love. Likewise, He withholds sustenance /wealth from those whom He loves and those whom He does not love.] Often the matter is quite the contrary. Fir'aun (the Pharaoh) claimed godhead and lordship, yet he never suffered from any headache. Some of Prophets (علیہم السلام) were sliced, by enemies, into two pieces with a saw. The Holy Prophet ﷺ is reported to have said that the poor refugees will enter Paradise forty years before the wealthy muhajirs (Immigrants). [ Imam Muslim رحمۃ علیہ has transmitted it from ` Abdullah Ibn Umar ؓ - Mazhari ]. In another narration, the Holy Prophet ﷺ is reported to have said that whomever Allah loves, He keeps him away from the worldly luxuries as people keep away their sickly patients from water. [ Ahmad and Tirmidhi transmitted it on the authority of Qatadah Ibn Nu` man Mazhari ].
That’s “Istidrāj”. Remember when the Almighty said: “But those who deny Our signs - We will progressively lead them [to destruction] from where they do not know.” [7:182] It’s Allāh’s early punishment for them for continually disobeying Him and doing major and minor sins without feeling any guilt. So Allāh gave them this Dunya for them to increase in their filth and when their decreed time has come and the Day of Resurrection has begun- they will lose all hope seeing mountains of bad deeds in their records. Hope this helps. And Allāh knows best.
May الله protect us from doing so many sins that’s gonna cause us to be in a bad place/space with HIM and jeopardize our good deeds/deen by HIS infinite mercy. 🤲🏼اللهم آمين

This dunya is for testing
That’s “Istidrāj”. Remember when the Almighty said: “But those who deny Our signs - We will progressively lead them [to destruction] from where they do not know.” [7:182]
It’s Allāh’s early punishment for them for continually disobeying Him and doing major and minor sins without feeling any guilt. So Allāh gave them this Dunya for them to increase in their filth and when their decreed time has come and the Day of Resurrection has begun- they will lose all hope seeing mountains of bad deeds in their records.
Hope this helps. And Allāh knows best.
This dunya is a prison for Muslims and paradise for non-Muslims
Do not think ˹O Prophet˺ that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them until a Day when ˹their˺ eyes will stare in horror-
