So now fast forward seven years after she's she's left and she is
in Medina, she's an established mother has her own family. What
happens her own mother remember her own mother for Taylor, who had
not yet accepted Islam, she's still and she dies in that state.
All the brothers, she visits the visitor and she brings with her
all of these treats and food and like ghee and raisins and other
foods, and she wants to give all of these gifts to her daughter.
Now, it's most conflicted, right? She's like, wait a second, even
though you're my mother, you're still on the other side of this.
And I need to make sure this is okay for me to even accept you as
my guest, and accept her gifts. So she had again that wisdom and that
my deepest Aida, for for her faith, to go and ask the
prophesies that I'm through her sister Aisha, can I accept my
mother even though she is not a Muslim? And she's brought me all
of these gifts. And this is also really relevant. Okay, how many of
you are converts in this room?
Now, Allahu Akbar, may Allah protect and preserve all of you,
and inshallah bring Hidayat to all of your loved ones. We had a
sister here, I don't know if she's here. I don't want to call her
out. But she was here yesterday for our liquor that we did. And
her heart was really heavy, she's a convert. And she said, I have no
support system. And this is the situation of many of our convert
sisters, which is why it's so important that we hold space with
one another and that we bring our convert sisters and brothers into
our communities and make sure that they never ever in their life feel
that they have no support system. But we all of us, and especially
our converts, you owe a smack into the bucket a lot for what she did
in this exchange, because because of her and this situation with her
mother, and seeking the advice of the prophesy centum the Iowas
revealed, which is Allah does not forbid you from dealing kindly and
fairly with those who have neither thought nor driven you out of your
homes. Surely Allah loves those who are fair. This is Chapter 60,
verse eight, this idea was revealed to reassure everyone
whose family and loved ones have not yet adopted the faith that you
can still have them in your life. You can still have a beautiful
relationship with them as long as they're not forcing you out of
their homes or torturing you or doing anything like that, to, you
know, again, bring them into your homes and treat them with the same
love and dignity and respect. He gave that permission and so she
was relieved and she accepted her mother, but another again
incredible story that we get from smell
