00:00:09 --> 00:00:14
			What I want to mention is that
some husbands or some wives, they,
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:17
			they don't allow the other one to
do something halal.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			If it's halal you want, especially
when it comes to sexual intimacy
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:26
			and so on, you should be open
about this. So, I guess moving on
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			to a different subject, slightly
different subject, the importance
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:35
			of sexual intimacy and sexual
fulfillment in a marriage is can
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:39
			cannot be emphasized enough. There
are so many cases where there are
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:43
			problems between husband and wife.
And generally, the problems that
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			mentioned to you is that you know
what, he always leaves his socks
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:51
			laying around, he doesn't clean up
afterwards, he is he says this to
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			me, he says that to me, or he's
complaining about her that she
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			acts like this, and she acts like
that.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:02
			Those are all symptoms, they all
the surface issues. A lot of the
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:07
			time when you have to listen to
somebody, you have to realize that
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:12
			the core issues will be a few.
Otherwise, the top issues they
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			start on the other day are all
because of a core issue. And
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:21
			sometimes in many cases, the core
issue could be his stingy, money
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:27
			issues, or his violent. Number
three, he is cannot fulfill her
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:27
			sexually.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			Or she doesn't fulfill him
secretary.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:36
			I'm being very clear about this.
It is so important. Now for a man
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40
			to be sexually fulfilled. It's
easy, right? Because it's quite a
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:43
			straightforward linear process.
But with women, it's more
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			complicated. And a lot of men
don't understand that they don't
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			understand a woman's sexuality at
all. They think it's like a man's.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:54
			So all they focus on is their own
sexuality, their own fulfillment.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			Whereas if you look at the Hadith
of the Prophet sallallahu sallam,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			and the suggestion by the OMA
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			they make it very clear, you know,
the West.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:10
			They've only understood in many
cases, female sexuality, everybody
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:15
			knew male sexuality, but female
sexuality in the last 5060 years.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:20
			It sounds mind boggling. But
seriously, they've only understood
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:23
			in the face. I mean, women used to
go 1920s 30 days to go to the
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			doctor for anxiety problems.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			And how
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:35
			the doctors used to use their
fingers, not in a sexual way, but
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:39
			basically to relieve their
frustration. And this was not this
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:42
			was a task. It was not like some
kind of sexual thing. This was a
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:47
			task. So they invented this thing
to make their job easier. And now
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			it becomes a * toy.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			They just didn't know that female
sexuality is. I mean, I hope I'm
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:58
			not wrong about this, but it was
discovered 1940s and 50s. As to
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:02
			what exactly is it and so on. In
Islam. This was clear from before
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:06
			in our tradition, you've got books
on * education, in Arabic and so
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:10
			on. Ibnu Sina and all these other
people, they women section is very
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			clear. I mean, I'll get I'll show
you.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:19
			Here you go. This is ignore Kodama
al bhakti. See, a great humbly
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:26
			scholar who died in 1223. That's
800 years. Ibnu. Kodama. Al
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:30
			makdisi, in his book called Al
Morgagni. Famous famous book on
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:37
			thick right 620 Hijiri. Right.
1400 way now, long time ago. This
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:41
			is where he writes. It is
preferable to enjoy foreplay with
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:46
			his wife before sexual penetration
to arouse her desire, so that she
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:51
			receives a similar pleasure to him
from the *. It is related
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			from Omar Abdulaziz that the
Prophet sallallahu sallam said, do
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:58
			not make love to her until she has
experienced desires similar to
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			what you have. Let's do climax
before she does.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:06
			Those who are not married, you can
maybe leave. Right because this is
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:11
			serious stuff. Right? This is all
in the book, but I've some some
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:15
			readers before I published they
said this may be sensitive for
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			some non married couples and
unmarried people. So I put a
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21
			disclaimer there that but it's in
the books, it's in the books of
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25
			Islam. Right and you're mature
enough. You should know this so
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			you don't make this mistake.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:31
			I asked Is that on me? Like is
that the man is asking is that my
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			responsibility to make her
satisfied?
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			He said yes, you should kiss her
feel her with your hands and touch
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:42
			her. When you feel that she is
aroused as you as you then you
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:46
			should make love to her. Then if
no Kodama continues later on, he
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:51
			says, if he finishes before she
does, it is undesirable for him to
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:54
			withdraw from her until she
finishes to
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			based on what is related from
Annecy below Malika deonda The
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			Messenger of Allah Subhan Allah
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Why you some set? Now this is a
Hadith that's related in the
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			Muslim Abuja Allah. He said, When
a person makes love to his wife,
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:11
			he should do so well with
sincerity, which means affection,
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:15
			compassion, love. If he does
fulfill his desire before she
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:20
			fulfills hers, he should wait
until she finishes. That's the end
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:24
			of the Hadith then ignore Kodama
carries on he says, also because
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			it is harmful to her and prevents
her from fulfilling her desire.
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:33
			Can you see how clear and explicit
This is in our tradition?
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:39
			The West only got this in the
1950s 70s, or whatever it is. And
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			they've just taken it to a
different limit now, because
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:45
			they're still, you know, exploring
the beginnings of it. They haven't
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:48
			had the test in Islam. We've had
this from before. But
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:52
			unfortunately, not all Muslim men
know this, which is a problem.
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:57
			And men should notice this is part
of it, because they're these cases
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			I've dealt with and the
frustration is sexual.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			Because one side generally,
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:04
			if the man is
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:09
			I wasn't sure if I was going to do
this session here, but I guess,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:14
			came about, and I hope it's useful
Inshallah, right? Generally, from
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:18
			the man's perspective, he's just
inconsiderate. And I think the
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			rule of thumb is very simple.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			Make sure that she finishes before
you do.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:28
			Simple, because when a man
finishes, then he can't carry on.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			But when a woman finish she can
still carry on. That's the
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:32
			sexuality of men, women. All
right.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:37
			There's lots of studies on this.
There's lots of studies I can't go
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			into all right now because that's
not the point we'll have to do a
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42
			special session for that, right.
But from the woman's perspective,
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:47
			the challenges is, when she has a
child, then she gets put off
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:51
			because her a lot of fatigue, a
lot of tiredness, a lot of focus
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:56
			is now focused on the child. One
woman just asked me a question.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			Last few weeks ago, when you had a
session with just women, she said
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03
			my husband was asking for it five
times. I've just had a child, he's
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			asking five times a week.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:08
			My first question is like, what
are you feeding him? Right.
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:14
			But basically, the advice I gave,
because a lot of women they feel
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:18
			that, especially when you get
caught up in this whole western
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			idea that
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			rights and all that everything
else,
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:27
			what you have to understand is
that you don't have to have full
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:32
			penetrative satisfaction. If
you're not able to talk to your
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:35
			husband, and say, look, it's
difficult for me, I you know, I'm
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:41
			just just not in the mode, right
now. Use other means to satisfy.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			And if you have that kind of
illness, when it comes to
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			sexuality, you should have a
conversation.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:51
			It's difficult to have that
conversation. But husband should
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:54
			have that conversations with their
wives in whatever easiest way they
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			can get them a book maybe or
something. And the wife should
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:00
			have that conversation with the
husband, be upfront about your
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:04
			issues. Otherwise, it just leads
to a lot of frustration. So many
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			marriages are on the rocks because
of this frustration, but they
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:07
			can't voice it.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:12
			They can't voice it. So make sure
that that doesn't happen,
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:15
			especially after children, a lot
of women, they say we just don't
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:20
			feel like it. The advice my wife
provides a simple set, you don't
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			feel like going to work in the
morning. If you have children, you
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			don't feel something you just saw
that you don't feel like getting
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			them ready and taking them to
school, if that's your
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:32
			responsibility. But once you get
up and you get into it, you can
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			start even enjoying the act. So
basically, the idea is that if you
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			just have this attitude is not
it's my right not to, I've got a
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:42
			right to say no, then you're not
going to satisfy because you have
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:45
			to remember that advice is for
women, you have to remember for a
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			man, when he wants it, he wants
it.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:52
			And if you don't give it to him,
he's gonna go somewhere else. Not
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			necessarily he will go somewhere
else, but he's going to start
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:59
			looking elsewhere. And that is why
Allah understands that. That's why
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:03
			he suggested that the one law is
that the wife should never refuse.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:07
			Of course, he should be considered
if she's totally sick and so on.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:12
			If she can refuse in that case, no
doubt about it. But if she can,
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:13
			she needs to.
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:19
			As long as the husbands also
consider it, you may not feel like
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:22
			you may not feel like it in the
first place. But you can get
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:27
			yourself involved and enjoy it. If
you look at it too far towards it
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:31
			as a sacred enjoyable act. Then
even when you don't feel like you
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			may feel like it sometimes it's
difficult to stop pray to pray.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			But you know, you have to pray. So
what do you do you make will do
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:40
			and then you get into it, and you
start praying. So okay, that's
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:43
			what I'm gonna say. Hopefully
that's enough.
