Brothers and sisters in Islam as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:32

My dear daughters, and sisters,

00:00:33 --> 00:00:36

we all talk about

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

love.

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

And when you're brought up in an environment,

00:00:43 --> 00:00:51

soap operas, movies, they always talk to you about a love story between a man and a woman.

00:00:53 --> 00:01:05

And normally the story would end like, they married one another. And then they lived happily ever after.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:14

My sister's, my daughter's. That is not the case. They never show you what happens after marriage.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

Marriage is a test. Marriage is an institution.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

Marriage is a project.

00:01:24 --> 00:01:26

You want a good partner.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:29

You want a quality partner.

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

And that quality partner is a righteous man.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:45

There is no harm in marrying a rich, handsome, prestigious, good family man. But these are not the criterias

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

my sisters in Islam,

00:01:49 --> 00:01:53

they are old was shared with us.

00:01:54 --> 00:02:06

Beautiful love stories between Romeo and Juliet, Cleopatra and Antonio, and others, so many names in different cultures.

00:02:07 --> 00:02:13

But you want to know the best love story I ever read.

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

I ever learned.

00:02:17 --> 00:02:24

The best love story in the whole world was between a man

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

and a woman.

00:02:28 --> 00:02:31

The woman was 15 years older than him.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:35

I'm talking about Khadija and Muhammad

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

00:02:39 --> 00:02:43

Ayesha Viola Juana, brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:02:44 --> 00:02:55

She made that statement and she said, I have never been jealous from the living wives of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam more than I'm jealous of Khadija.

00:02:57 --> 00:02:58

Khadija is dead.

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

Khadija is not alive.

00:03:02 --> 00:03:15

And when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam with mentioned her, I can tell how much excited he is about her. Her deja used to have a sister Her name is Hannah.

00:03:16 --> 00:03:25

And when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would hear the voice of Allah outside he would say Allahu Allah, this is hella get me holla

00:03:27 --> 00:03:38

and when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would slaughter a sheep, he would make sure that he tells his wife, make sure that you give some of the cheap to the Friends of Khadija.

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45

Ilana would say Why are you doing this to her deja hombre?

00:03:47 --> 00:03:58

She had no teeth. When Allah subhanho wa Taala replaced her with better women better wives like myself.

00:03:59 --> 00:04:11

Here is the statement that I'm looking for brothers and sisters in Islam. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam kills eyeshadow Viola Rhonda, Aisha lacquered Rosa to Hawa

00:04:13 --> 00:04:15

her love, her love

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18

was placed in my heart.

00:04:21 --> 00:04:25

You see, these hearts are not in our hands.

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

Obey Allah and Allah will make you love your husband.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:38

So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is showing the oma that the love comes from Allah.

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

If you obey Allah,

00:04:42 --> 00:04:44

Allah will make you love your husband

00:04:45 --> 00:04:48

and will make your husband loves you.

00:04:49 --> 00:04:53

I'll share with you a real life story that happened at our time.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:57

A man

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

who went to the moon

00:05:00 --> 00:05:07

worked in the Gulf countries, and Emirates for years. 20 years, very poor to begin with, he became wealthy.

00:05:08 --> 00:05:14

His father was a very righteous man. He used to be the Imam. This is the real life story is not a sci fi.

00:05:16 --> 00:05:23

So, the man after accumulating all his wealth, he sent to his father, my father, I want to get married.

00:05:24 --> 00:05:32

A lot of the years passed by without getting married. Now it's the time and I want you to choose a life for me.

00:05:34 --> 00:05:48

And I want you to go ahead and put the marriage contract together. And I want to go into the actual marriage. The wedding day, I want it to be the day that I arrived, and I don't want to see her.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:55

This is how much trust this man this young man had in his father.

00:05:58 --> 00:06:21

Of course, a righteous man knows that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said a woman is asked in marriage for four reasons. Both beauty lineage and the deen. You better go for the deen. He chose in a quality religious women wife for his son. But yet her physical appearance was not the best.

00:06:23 --> 00:06:38

The son arrives to Egypt. At the airport, he is backed up. And he is taken to his wife, who was wearing a veil. And then basically he got into the room with her alone.

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

As soon as she unveiled herself.

00:06:44 --> 00:06:45

He became shocked.

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

He became shocked.

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

This is the wife that my father chose for me.

00:06:54 --> 00:06:55

She's not beautiful.

00:06:57 --> 00:07:05

She's not beautiful. He became so depressed here I am coming after all these years. So excited, so excited.

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

He became so depressed.

00:07:09 --> 00:07:10

So he slept

00:07:12 --> 00:07:16

towards the last third of the night. The wife

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

who understood that the action of the husband.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:26

She tried to wake him up. He refused. She tried again. He refused.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:30

And then she sprinkled water on him

00:07:31 --> 00:07:32

to wake him up.

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

So he waked up.

00:07:36 --> 00:07:47

And she spoke to him. And she said, I know how much disappointed you are. And I understand I'm not beautiful. But you know what?

00:07:48 --> 00:07:52

I wished to get married. For one reason.

00:07:54 --> 00:08:03

I wanted to implement the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. When he said, Rahim, Allah whom are juhlin

00:08:04 --> 00:08:09

may Allah have mercy on a man who wakes up to pray at night.

00:08:10 --> 00:08:14

And then he would wake up his wife. And if she does not wake up

00:08:16 --> 00:08:39

navaja Allah, Allah, he would sprinkle water on her to wake up. And this is the segment that she wanted to implement was Rahim Allah hombre? A wife and May Allah Subhana Allah have mercy on a woman grant His mercy to a wife who wakes up to pray to head up at night.

00:08:40 --> 00:08:43

And she wakes her husband up to pray with her

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

and if he does not wake up

00:08:48 --> 00:08:50

she sprinkles water in him

00:08:52 --> 00:08:52

one law he

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

I'm so grateful to you.

00:08:56 --> 00:09:07

That you granted me that wish. I wanted to implement that Hadith so much and I was a little bit hopeless that I will get married because I know I'm not beautiful.

00:09:08 --> 00:09:13

Can you please now fulfill the rest of this howdy with me?

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

Can you wake up

00:09:16 --> 00:09:21

and just lead me in Salah. Break the hatchet with me.

00:09:22 --> 00:09:23

He waked up

00:09:25 --> 00:09:27

and he led her in Salah

00:09:28 --> 00:09:34

brothers and sisters in Islam. This man swears by Allah.

00:09:35 --> 00:09:49

That as soon as he ended his dad Jude leading her and Salah. I looked at her as if I'm looking at the most beautiful women in this world.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:54

That's the way it goes.

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

Don't be deceived by all these soap operas and movies.

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

Love gets to the heart because of Allah. Allah can make you love your husband, but you and your husband obey Allah.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:17

lead your wives in Salah. Have your husbands lead you in Salah at night.

00:10:19 --> 00:10:21

Family brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:27

They have grandchildren who memorize the Quran

00:10:28 --> 00:10:34

and they are students of knowledge. And some of them are about to be scholars of this oma

00:10:35 --> 00:10:37

brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:10:38 --> 00:10:52

Don't compromise nor test the commands of Allah. If you want to live happily like they say in the movie ever after. Marriage is a tough institution.

00:10:54 --> 00:11:02

enough that shaitaan everyday places the crown on the head of a shaitan who separates a husband and wife.

00:11:04 --> 00:11:08

You need a good partner for the mission

00:11:09 --> 00:11:11

and the quality that you must seek

00:11:12 --> 00:11:14

righteousness and piety.

00:11:15 --> 00:11:18

And if you do, you will get the best of this dunya

00:11:19 --> 00:11:31

and be in the light Allah. You will be with your reformed husband and reformed wife as virgin Mata hora purified spouses in gender
