00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			We're gonna rewind a little bit
when she didn't have a lot. And,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			you know, her husband as a band
was struggling and they had this
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:10
			horse. At that time in her life,
she did a lot, she was the she
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			would go out early, and get water
for the horse, feed the horse,
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:17
			bring it fodder, she would walk
it, she would go and get dates,
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			seeds, and they would, they would,
at that time crush it. And it was
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:26
			a very labor intensive life. And
at one point, she had to walk
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			about two miles to do this process
of crushing these date stones, and
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			then they would carry these
massive things on her head. So
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:37
			again, try to visualize this,
she's walking two miles,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:41
			exhausted, she's been laboring all
day, just trying to make it
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:46
			survive and who comes and crosses
her path, none other than the
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			beloved sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and this is his sister in
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:54
			law. So you know, sometimes, and
this is, again, something that we
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			should just really appreciate,
that is lost. Unfortunately, today
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:02
			in the nonverbal communication
that can sometimes be really
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:05
			powerful. Not everything always
has to be said, sometimes the
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			States and our hearts are
communicating. So the prophesy
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:12
			centum sees his sister in law in
this state, without a single word,
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:18
			he stops his camel and orders the
camel to kneel. And then he makes
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			a sound.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:25
			Or if something to that effect,
which was an indication to her,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			like, come on, I got you sit on
the camel, I'm gonna take you the
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:33
			rest of the way. He had this
compassion for his sister in law
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			seeing her in the state. But
SubhanAllah. And I want you to see
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40
			what she does. This is again, the
emotional intelligence of a wife,
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			and a woman who's using her
intellect to assess the situation.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			There's all these men here, the
processes here, I could really use
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52
			a ride, right? But
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			my husband is jealous.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:03
			I can't do it. without words,
without any words. What does she
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:07
			do? She just stands there. And the
prophesies tell them again, He
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			knows the hearts, no
communication, they just
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:13
			understood each other. He
understood that her shyness meant
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17
			she wasn't going to get on. And he
just proceeded forward. And she
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:22
			went home rushed home to tell her
husband about this whole incident
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:26
			what happened, because she wanted
to be transparent, we, and we have
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29
			to, again, apply this in the
modern context. A lot of things
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:33
			are happening in spaces, private
and marriages, and lives all over
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			the place. And everybody's all
about privacy. Now, give me a
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:39
			break, you're married
transparency, you should have you
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:44
			know, access to one another's, you
know, whatever is public, right?
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:48
			But this idea that no, I can do my
own thing. And I don't have to
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:52
			share to just let's learn from
her, she wanted to, again, show
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:55
			her husband and I honored you in
your absence. So she tells him
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:59
			what happened. And his response is
also a really beautiful, because
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:03
			it just gives us insight that they
actually cared about one another.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:06
			And it wasn't this whole, you
know, power game all the time.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			Like, I want this, and I want that
they weren't about that they were
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:14
			about the hearts. So he told her,
he said by Allah, you're carrying
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:18
			the date stones, and you being
seen by the promises to them on
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:22
			with that, you know, with it on
your head in such a state is more
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:27
			shameful to me than you having
taken a ride with him. So he's
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			letting her know like I'm pained
that you were in this that I've
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:34
			put you in this situation, I don't
care about that. But there are so
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:37
			considerate of one another's
feelings. So we have to think
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:42
			about that in the context of, you
know, who are we? Are we you know,
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:45
			again, not sharing certain things
with our spouses, or are we taking
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:50
			these positions that are not
really thoughtful about one
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			another's feelings and this
applies to the brothers too. I
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:55
			hope they're watching this or will
watch it at some point. But you
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:59
			know, if your wife asks you not to
socialize with certain people,
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			it's respect that you honor that
request and vice versa and I think
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:07
			we just have to, you know, take
take that, you know, nessa from
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:10
			this, but she prioritized her
husband's feelings in that
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:10
			incident.
