The other day I spoke about mothers. Some
of you might have heard the talk. It
was a Friday talk in Cape Town.
You won't believe it, I got some hate
mail, man, from people saying: How on earth
would you ever, ever say what you said?
I said: I'm so happy and proud that
I did, because normally I've spoken so many
times on children and so on. I've spoken
2 or 3 times on mothers. What's the
big deal? If anything, I probably didn't do
justice to it, just because I said you
must respect them and be kind to them
no matter what. What do you mean no
matter what? I did make an exception. Go
and listen to the talk.
Don't complain me. The reason I'm raising it
here again tonight is because
we have to talk about things. Just because
it didn't fit in your example doesn't mean
that I was wrong.
Perhaps your unique situation
may warrant something drastic,
but that's not the norm, is it?
So if I say something, if I say,
guys you've got to be kind to your
parents and look after them. Did I say
something wrong?
Not at all. But if your parent is
is an exception where they've been abusive and
really toxic and so bad and you've had
to go away from them to protect your
sanity and you, that's a different thing. That's
an exception. I'm not gonna be speaking, generalizing
regarding exceptions,
I'm gonna generalize regarding the norm, what's happening.
So if I were to tell you that
you got to be kind to this person
and that person, and I did say you
don't have to obey.
Were they telling you to do something wrong?
Or
if they're being nasty, you can address the
matter.
But just be kind. Remember that's your mother,
that's your father, come what may. They could
be the horriblest people on earth, but it
doesn't give you the right
to become nasty with them. You can step
back, you can tell them, you can you
can put your foot down, you can do
whatever you have to,
but the only thing is go easy, be
be kind. Allah chose that test for you.
be kind. Allah chose that test for you.
