			There's a difference between the
concept of Rey being used to
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:09
			support, protect, uplift women in
men's lives, and women feel like
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:13
			these men have got my back, versus
using the concept to justify
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18
			controlling women. Alma radila, an
who was the ruler of the Muslims
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			at the time when he was married to
Attika bint Zaid rodi la Juan ha
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26
			she put in her marriage contract
as Ibn Hazel espadani mentions
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			that he cannot prevent her from
going to the masjid. She would go
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:33
			to the masjid. And Ibn Al asked
her, Why do you go out? And you
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:37
			know that Amar hates it and he's
jealous. And she responded, what's
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:42
			stopping him from banning me? And
he responded to her. What's
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:46
			stopping him is a statement of the
Prophet, peace be upon him. Do not
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50
			prevent the maid servants of God
from the houses of God. So ayatika
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:55
			kept going, because despite armors
jealousy, he recognized that her
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:59
			rights in Islam overruled his
personal preference. He was in the
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			masjid when he was stabbed, which
eventually led to his death.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:07
			Rodilo Ho Anhu and ati guilloha.
Anho was in the masjid when the
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:11
			stabbing took place. You could say
that she might have been so
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:17
			overwhelmed with guilt or regret
that she was in a place where she
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			knew her husband didn't support
and love for her to be when he was
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:21
			murdered,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			but when she got remarried later
on to azube rodi Aloha anhu, she
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:32
			still put in her marriage contract
to him that he cannot prevent her
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:37
			from going to the masjid for her,
the Masjid was mentioned in
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:41
			hundreds of narrations of woman
companions who Were with the
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			Prophet Muhammad. Peace be upon
him. The Masjid was a place that
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:49
			they actively sought out, and they
clung onto Alma adiloha anhu was
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:57
			the example of a man who took
Islam to be his compass. It wasn't
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:02
			his jealousy, it wasn't his
personal feelings over how women
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			should be. It was his religion.
