Many women were mentioned in the Quran
by name or by reference.
For example, the wife of Sayida Ibrahim,
the wife of Al Aziz in chapter Yusuf.
We have Hawa,
although her name was not mentioned, Saydah Hawa.
We also have the mother of Saydna Musa.
We have the daughters of Saydna Shwaib. So
there's many women mentioned in the Quran, and
we're gonna take you through this journey
and look at the woman in the Quran
as Allah
revealed
to us.
So the first one, which is mothers in
the Quran.
So for the mother, we have the mother
who begged Allah
to give her a righteous child, and this
was the mother of Sayida
Maria. Turned to Allah and says,
I have given what I am carrying, meaning
the fetus, by for your service.
Except for me.
You're all knowing you're all hearing.
Where he said the When she delivered, she
said, you Allah, I delivered the girl.
And Allah knows what she delivered. And she
said that
the girl
is not like
the boy or the the woman is not
like the man. That's a translation.
That the meaning of it is not they
are not the same, but in the service
of the of the church in that time,
it was only allowed for the male, was
not allowed for the woman. She wanted a
baby who will serve Allah
What happened?
Allah accepted her with a beautiful
Zakaria took care of her.
Every time Zakaria, Sayyidina Zakaria enter
on
say, he finds sustenance.
Mary, where did this come from?
It's from Allah.
Allah
to whom he wills without accounting,
without counting it.
The mother here, what's the message to you
and me? What's the message to all the
women out there and to the mothers there?
Make dua to Allah
even before you get married. Let alone after
you get married, let alone when you when
you are pregnant, that Allah
gives you a righteous child that serves Allah
May Allah emphasized
on this and we ended up with a
saydah,
Mariam. And Allah
answers. He listened. He hears, and he gives
the way that pleases insha Allah everybody, but
the most important, the way that he sees
it the best for us. So that's the
first one.
Now the second mother in the Quran is
the mother who put her trust in Allah
completely, the mother of Sayyidina Musa.
Well, at
the half, don't be afraid.
And don't worry. We're gonna bring him back
to you, and we're gonna make him a
prophet.
How many mothers can do that?
Newborn baby breastfeeding,
throw him.
We will bring him back. She not only
believed in Allah, but she had certainty Allah
will bring him back to her. Then who
picked him up? Of course, subhanAllah, again, how
Allah plans things for
each one of us. The main enemy who
didn't want any boy
and he was killing all the boys because
he doesn't want anyone to take his
power and throne.
Then they picked him up, and his wife,
the wife of Shiron, said, don't kill him.
Don't kill him.
He maybe he will be a benefit of
us. Now what happened to the mother of
Musa?
The heart of the mother of Musa became
empty empty because it was full of the
love of her son, newborn.
She was about to tell people I throw
him the boy in the house of pharaoh
is mine.
Gave her the strength. That's one of the
things we learn.
Put our trust in Allah
When we get weak, turn to him, and
Allah will keep us
strong.
And then Allah plans it.
And what
she
she said to his sister, follow him.
She followed him, as she was seeing what
is happening in the house that they picked
him,
and Allah planned it. Have faith in the
plan of Allah.
Allah plans in ways
way, way different than what we think.
Allah made him refuse
every woman breastfeeding.
He refused.
So now they have to find a woman
who can breastfeed him. Their sister said,
I will show you on somebody who is
gonna be able to breastfeed him, and he
will accept it.
We brought the mother back to him.
So she feels happy
and she does not feel sad.
The promise of Allah is truth.
Majority of people
don't know. Mothers have faith in Allah or
rely on Allah. Whatever Allah plans is good
for us.
Then Allah gave examples of wives in the
Quran.
Example of 2 wives
and a 1 wife. The 2 wives that
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala did not praise them.
The wife of Noah and the wife of
Lord.
They were the wise. They
were living with 2 of our righteous
servants, Sayid Nanno Hussein Nanno.
They betrayed them.
How did they betrayed them? Sayyidina Nur's wife,
Noah's wife, her name was Wahila,
and she used to say to his people,
he's crazy.
And the wife of Sayid Naulwab, her name
is Wa'ila.
And she used to tell people
when
the angels or when the man comes in,
she used to to visit them. She used
to tell people that there is man in
his house.
They betrayed them,
both Nur
and
Lord.
You will end up in Jahannam with those
who are entering it. It doesn't matter who's
your family. It's your work.
It's your deeds. We'll get to us, inshallah.
We'll get you and get all of us
to Jannah.
Both of them ended up in the hellfire,
although they were in the most righteous homes
because they disobeyed Allah and they did things
they shouldn't do.
Now the other wife,
Now the wife of pharaoh Asiya,
well, she was living with Firaoun,
and what did she say?
You Allah
built for me. Build for me a house
with you in Jannah.
Save me from pharaoh. What he's doing,
save me. Remove me from those
people who does wrongdoing.
And they said he was so upset with
her when she believed in Allah that he
laid her in the sun,
and he used to torture her
torture her, but then when they leave Allah
usually sends a cloud to shade her.
SubhanAllah.
And even angels came to see her. When
she saw that, that's when she made the
dua. That's when she died actually. She was
very happy and smiling because she would be
elevated to be with Allah
So for the wives that they are living
in difficult marriages
or they are struggling to obey Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala, do inside their marriage,
read about the the wife of pharaoh and
learn from her
and then how she was connected with Allah
in spite she is living
in the most the most or the number
one enemy to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
For women, as you have seen, we covered
different kinds of women in the Quran,
But there is one which was covered in
way more detail,
and this is a woman in power.
And that's what we're gonna be covering tomorrow.
So ask yourself this question, and the answer
is in the Quran.
Was there a mention of a woman
that's had
power?
And how was she mentioned? And what was
the story about? And where was it in
the Quran?
We'll find out tomorrow.
