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

May Allah make it easy. I know Muslims

00:00:02--> 00:00:04

who've left Islam who were born Muslims

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

a few of them

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

and that's a

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

cheap excuse.

00:00:09--> 00:00:12

You know, ignorance, like I say, lack of

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

faith, lack of iman, that's what happens.

00:00:15--> 00:00:17

I would like to think set yourself

00:00:18--> 00:00:19

a date

00:00:19--> 00:00:20

Beyond which

00:00:21--> 00:00:23

you can get married to him without his

00:00:23--> 00:00:24

folks. It's easier this way

00:00:26--> 00:00:29

if he is independent from them The problem

00:00:29--> 00:00:32

comes when he depends on them for his

00:00:32--> 00:00:34

living. Then I don't have a solution.

00:00:34--> 00:00:35

It's difficult.

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

But if he's independent, he can be kind

00:00:37--> 00:00:39

to them, be nice to them, he can

00:00:39--> 00:00:41

get it done without them, and he can

00:00:41--> 00:00:42

let them know, listen, I'm doing this, and

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

they can kick him out, they can do

00:00:44--> 00:00:46

whatever, and but you just be nice and

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

kind. I know that it's so difficult to

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

say, well, for how long should I just

00:00:50--> 00:00:51

be nice and kind to them? Sometimes it

00:00:51--> 00:00:53

takes a few years, but imagine it takes

00:00:53--> 00:00:55

3 years out of another 30, 40 years

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

of marriage, 50 years of marriage. 3 years

00:00:58--> 00:00:59

was worth the sacrifice.

00:01:00--> 00:01:02

But the 3 years when you're going through

00:01:02--> 00:01:03

it seems very very long.

00:01:04--> 00:01:06

We pray that Allah make it easy for

00:01:06--> 00:01:08

you and you know what if I had

00:01:08--> 00:01:10

it my way I would actually I wouldn't

00:01:10--> 00:01:12

mind calling on those folks

00:01:13--> 00:01:14

and proposing on your behalf.

00:01:17--> 00:01:19

I wouldn't mind. I don't mind.

00:01:19--> 00:01:21

I can get it done. We

00:01:21--> 00:01:23

inshallah. Later on, I get the details and

00:01:23--> 00:01:24

inshallah, we

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

can at least pay them a visit or

00:01:26--> 00:01:27

give them a phone call and let them

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

know, listen, this is who I am. And

00:01:29--> 00:01:31

I'm speaking on behalf of so and so.

00:01:31--> 00:01:32

And, inshallah, we wanna try and get this

00:01:32--> 00:01:34

done, and let then let's see what they

00:01:34--> 00:01:35

say.

00:01:44--> 00:01:47

Masha'Allah. We pray that Allah soften their hearts.

00:01:47--> 00:01:49

And that's another thing you you you also

00:01:49--> 00:01:51

need to always do, just pray, oh Allah

00:01:51--> 00:01:52

soften their hearts, soften their hearts. And then

00:01:52--> 00:01:54

there's one last thing I wanna say, if

00:01:54--> 00:01:55

we're gonna try all our trials,

00:01:57--> 00:01:59

if we're gonna try all our trials and

00:01:59--> 00:02:01

we fail in everything, you need to firmly

00:02:01--> 00:02:03

for you.

00:02:01--> 00:02:03

for you.
