Mufti Menk – Becoming Romantic with the ‘Right’ People

			that's our role model. The professor seldom
		

			has played games sometimes, or recreation, he has actually taken his spouse out in order to do
certain things I shall the Allahu Allah makes mention of the racing. Now, although this didn't
happen every day, and it might not have been so regular, but it did happen. I mean, once in a while
you going on vacation, you can have a little bit of fun here. And then that is an ibadah. People
think why is this guy doing it, especially when you're a chef, or especially when you're a religious
person, but you should, in fact, the more religious you are, one of the characteristics is you
become romantic with the right people.
		

			Notice the last words, the right people, because when you're not religious, and when you're not
conscious of Allah, you're romantic, but with the wrong people. When you're conscious, you become
romantic with the right people.
		

			And this love and affection is felt. And this connection is felt so deep. It's just amazing. So this
is the prophets of Salaam. He raised without a shadow of Allah one Hmm. They were on the horses
mentioned is made of how there was a time when he one of his wife said, I don't want to ride on this
horse because it's too slow. I need a fast horse. So he stopped the caravan and put her onto the
fastest horse. And then are you happy? Yes. Now I'm very happy. Imagine you got two or three cars
and your wife says no, I want to go in the fastest car. Would you ever think that if the processor
was there, he would stop everything and say, Okay, come come. Let's take you in the festival. Why
		

			not? That's what's gonna make you happy. What are you losing? That doesn't mean he was not the Emir
of the whole. He was not the leader of the he was the leader. He called the shots. He made the
decisions but he always considered what was said he protected his family SallAllahu Sallam he
provided for them and they were happy with whatever he provided. You know what I shall the Allah one
has is something amazing. Because people think, oh, that's the prophets of salaam he must have been.
He was the best of creation, the most noble of all prophets of Allah he is but
		

			materially, there was a stage when the processor didn't have that much. So when we talk, some people
say he didn't have much some people say he had everything. Those were different stages in his life
Salalah Alesana. But the eyeshadow Viola one has is in LA Mohammadi.
		

			You know, that means, even though we were the family of the Prophet, so she's about to say something
that you wouldn't have expected because she's saying even though we were the family of the Prophet
of Allah, we had no food in our home. We saw the moon, we saw another moon, we saw a third one which
means three months in a row. And you know what? The only thing we had was a TomorrowWorld Ma, dates
and water.
		

			Did they complain? The answer is no. Did they say my husband can provide look at him we just eating
dates and water they were happy because you know what? There are days when you may not have and
there are days when you will have a man's test is when he has everything. And a woman's test is when
she a woman's test is when he has nothing.
		

			Have you thought of that? Okay, that's not something Islamic but it's just something from from what
we've seen on Earth. A woman is tested. In fact, even from an Islamic perspective, a woman is tested
when the husband doesn't have much or loses things, then that's your test. Are you going to stay?
Are you going you may you have a right beyond a certain point to ask out if really your rights are
being affected. But if you're patient, perhaps that man might get so much more. You've had so many
years of goodness now there will be years of a little time of tough perhaps years, and then you will
have a lot of goodness again. Are you prepared to stay for a good man for good man?
		

			The answer should be yes I would for a good man. I will. It is not a good man. It's another thing
