00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			Also I want to share the advice. You
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			guys know Sheikh Rokashat Kamini?
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			What's he known for?
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			Khalaf and Hamza,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:10
			and Kisai.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			As Sheikh Habidullah Ta'ala, you Google him or
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			you YouTube him, he's become a very well
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			known famous recital.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			People just think that he's a recital.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			From the most knowledgeable, if not the most
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			knowledgeable,
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			Westerner that I've personally come in contact with.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			May Allah bless the brother John Fontaine, he
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			set up a meeting
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			in Mecca.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			And I thought let me take some advice
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			and I think maybe
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			students can benefit from this because a lot
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			of students always ask,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			how can I now combine between
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			being serious when it comes to
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			and
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			also
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			marriage life?
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			Common question, right?
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			Is this woman now going to aid me
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00
			or is she going to be hindrance?
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			It's a continuous battle.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			I said, Sheikh,
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			you're probably married to 4, Allahu Adam. I'm
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			not asking whether this is the case or
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			not, but
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			I'm assuming
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			you have, masha'Allah.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			Your dua, Allahumabhairiq,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			is very well known.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:25
			You're busy.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:26
			Right?
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			You're very famous.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			The more famous you get, the more easy
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			it becomes to get married.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			And I'm not trying to find out about
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			the ins and outs, I just want to
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			know one thing. Shaykh,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			how do you find time
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			progressing in
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			Sikha Knowledge?
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			Because normally when you become a dua or
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			the imam of the masjid, you get busy.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			Right? After fajr, you got people asking you
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			questions. Sometimes as an imam you just wanna
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			run away. This is my private time, my
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			Quran time.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:00
			Utuqmi.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			Leave me.
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			However, you can't operate like that.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			So you're so busy, how do you find
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			time? Because this sheikh,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			he continued seeking knowledge.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			And they say, but I heard, and he
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			reached me, that he would continue doing alfiyat,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			1,000 line poems,
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			even when he's given dawah.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			Allahu Barik.
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:23
			So he's like a computer.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			So I said, Sheikh, when do you find
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:28
			time?
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:30
			He said, you have to find a time
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:33
			when no one occupies you. When is that?
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			3 PM in the afternoon,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			when you need to be doing school runs
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			as a parent.
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			And when after Maghrib,
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:44
			before you go to sleep, when you become
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			mentally exhausted,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			and then the wife says go and take
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:48
			her to sleep.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			It's literally now one brother, Mawlana,
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			expose him, saying
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56
			it's a challenge
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			At night,
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			wife's looking at him and he's looking at
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:00
			the wife,
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			who's going to go out to sleep.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			It's a challenge.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			When will you find time?
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			I said, Sheikh, are you referring to 'Aafat
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:11
			Fatiha?
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			Said, You have to find that time when
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:16
			everyone's asleep.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			Not your wife, not the
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			Mamoom, Fil Masjid,
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:22
			not this person who comes and ask you
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			questions, everyone's asleep.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			And if they are awake, they are praying
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			in their homes. No one's al Khooi at
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			that time, right?
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:31
			This is the time that you should maybe
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			what? Progressing, memorizing, reading,
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:34
			doing what you can.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			Normally when a woman becomes pregnant and she
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			has a child, she tends to go to
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:39
			sleep after Fajr.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			Right? Again, you have to make a sacrifice.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			You are going to have eye bags.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			You'll be tired.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			She put Vaseline on and show you look
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:47
			better
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			Or some
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			cream. But your face is going to suffer
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			at times.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:53
			Right?
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:54
			It's
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:57
			a sacrifice you have to make. You
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:02
			want
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			in anything.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:05
			Right?
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			In everything that you're trying to become successful
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:10
			in, you have to put in the efforts
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:11
			in order to
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			Reach success.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			And of course it's much more than that,
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			like you need the tawfiq of Allah
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			So this is the advice that he gave
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			me.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			I mentioned it here because it's a very
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			common question, we can just now refer the
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:29
			people to the video.
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:33
			Right? It's common question, right?
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			She's always in my face, and she's telling
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			me do this, do that.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			There has to be a time that she
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			respects,
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			right?
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			Like I tell my family, I don't want
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			you to speak to me till 3 PM.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			From Ba'al Fajr
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			until 3, I don't know you.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			Otherwise I'm gonna go and get a corporate
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			job, I'll come back at 5 PM. At
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			least I'm in the house now.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			I'm reading, this is my work.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			My studies is my work.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			I don't know you, don't talk to me.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			After that, we'll have breakfast, we'll have a
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			3 pm.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			That's what we call brunch, sah.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			There has to be a time that's mukaddas.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			Because if you think about it brothers, right,
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			and sisters,
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			when you go to work, everyone respects your
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			time, right? Because the money
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:24
			is on the line.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			No one calls you, no, your father, not
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:30
			your mother, not your wife.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			Everyone respects that. But when you pick up
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			a book, oh this guy is just, you
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			know,
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:37
			she's reading.
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			Yeah. There has to be time that you
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			respect, this is my study time.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			And of course, you have to give time
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44
			to them, that's why you have to be
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			fair. Times when you just spend quality time
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			with them, not just time, quality time.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:51
			So you have to put your phone away,
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:52
			maybe put in the basket at the door,
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			and just talk to her.
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:58
			Say nice things. When they hear nice things,
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			trust me, you'll be able to get time.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			I just wanna seek knowledge.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			Sometimes you have to bluff,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:07
			Right?
