And before the prep for Ramadan. Okay. Maybe

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

like a 10 days or 14 days before

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

Ramadan. Usually everything in the center turns into

00:00:06 --> 00:00:07

a Ramadan prep and then

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

we go into Ramadan and then we come

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

out on the other side.

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

But before that, I was talking about marriage

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

and I narrate maybe 6 or 7 hadith.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

I'm not sure, something like that. And I

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

have I had, like, at least another 10

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

that I want to narrate. I'm gonna do

00:00:22 --> 00:00:23

that for you and then we'll move on

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

to another topic. So this is just a

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

continuation of a topic that I already started

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

that I want to kind of, conclude in

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

terms of the hadith that I want to

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

narrate to you. So

00:00:37 --> 00:00:37

tonight,

00:00:41 --> 00:00:43

with a reasonable chain of narration by our

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

mother Aisha

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

Where he said,

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

That the wife of Uthman Margron, she would

00:00:56 --> 00:00:57

take care of herself.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

Means she would put perfume, she would, you

00:01:02 --> 00:01:03

know, kind of take care of

00:01:04 --> 00:01:06

her her appearance, things that ladies do for

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

her husband. And

00:01:08 --> 00:01:09

she stopped doing that in her life.

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

And she entered my house one day and

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

I had noticed that she doesn't she's not

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

taking care of her appearance as she used

00:01:17 --> 00:01:18

to.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

And this is just a word that means

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

your husband's around or not around. Is he

00:01:25 --> 00:01:26

traveling or is he here?

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

He's here but he's not really here. Like

00:01:30 --> 00:01:31

he's here but doesn't make it.

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

What's wrong?

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

Uthman does not want dunya, he doesn't want

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

women either.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

And then she left and the Prophet came

00:01:47 --> 00:01:48

to my house

00:01:51 --> 00:01:52

and I told him what she had told

00:01:52 --> 00:01:52

me.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

He heard this, he gets up, he leaves

00:01:57 --> 00:01:58

the house.

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

He said, do you believe in that which

00:02:05 --> 00:02:05

I believe in?

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

Then do like I do.

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

Do as I do. If you believe in

00:02:14 --> 00:02:15

what I believe in, then you do as

00:02:15 --> 00:02:16

I do. What is this? I don't want

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

dunya. I don't want my wife.

00:02:19 --> 00:02:20

Where did you get that from?

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22

I don't teach that.

00:02:22 --> 00:02:23

I didn't teach you that. I didn't teach

00:02:23 --> 00:02:24

you to get married

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

and neglect your wife. I didn't teach you

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

to be poor and have no wealth and

00:02:28 --> 00:02:29

not be able to take care of yourself

00:02:29 --> 00:02:30

and the people around you. I didn't teach

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

that. I taught you differently. So if you

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

believe in what I believe in, then you'll

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

do as I do.

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

This is advice not just for marriage. It's

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38

advice for everything.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

If you believe in what he believed in,

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

then you'll do as he did and you'll

00:02:42 --> 00:02:44

go and you'll find out what how did

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

he do? You go learn and study. What

00:02:46 --> 00:02:47

did he do?

00:02:48 --> 00:02:50

Sometimes there's context that needs to be taken

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

in consideration when we're studying that, right? We

00:02:52 --> 00:02:54

have to understand where and when he was

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

so that we can draw the parallels appropriately.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

But how did he do? And then we

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59

do like him alaihis salatu wa sallam. And

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

a part of it was marriage. He would

00:03:00 --> 00:03:02

get married and he would care for his

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04

wife. He would make her feel special and

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

loved, so that she would care for herself.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

This is a part of how he lived

00:03:07 --> 00:03:09

alaihis salatu wa sallam, his life. This is

00:03:09 --> 00:03:10

not Zuhud is not here.

00:03:11 --> 00:03:13

This is not where Zuhud is practiced. Zuhud

00:03:13 --> 00:03:16

is practiced elsewhere. Zud is in haram. Zud

00:03:16 --> 00:03:16

is from

00:03:17 --> 00:03:18

extravagance, not from

00:03:19 --> 00:03:20

the halal that Allah put there for you.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

The person that has dedicated their life to

00:03:22 --> 00:03:23

you.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

And it's something worthy of thinking about because

00:03:25 --> 00:03:27

he took it he took this seriously. He

00:03:27 --> 00:03:28

left his house going looking for Uthman. He

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29

didn't say I'll talk to him later. No.

00:03:29 --> 00:03:30

He went and looked for him.

00:03:31 --> 00:03:33

And then he used an argument that is

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

impossible for you not to understand. Do you

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

believe in what I believe in? Yes. Then

00:03:37 --> 00:03:38

you do as I do because that's not

00:03:38 --> 00:03:38

how I do.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:41

This forced Uthman to revisit

00:03:41 --> 00:03:43

how he was living altogether.

00:03:43 --> 00:03:44

Who went to the great Sahaba.

00:03:45 --> 00:03:46

He lost his

00:03:47 --> 00:03:48

he lost his eye for the sake of

00:03:48 --> 00:03:48

Allah.

00:03:51 --> 00:03:53

This is someone who is more dedicated than

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55

I can ever be, but he needed to

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

be reminded that if you want to truly

00:03:57 --> 00:03:58

be a proper Muslim, then you have to

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

live as he lives sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:04:00 --> 00:04:01

which I think is beautiful.
