at home so let's begin.
		

			The party has started
		

			this Milan hamdulillah salatu salam ala Rasulillah Elio Sami Manuela bad es Salaam aleikum wa
rahmatullah wa barakato. I just have to do this
		

			Good Morning, Vietnam.
		

			This is your host, Muhammad Sharif broadcasting during these exceptionally special times, sending
love and peace to all our brothers and sisters around the world. Tonight's topic is going to be
anger at home, how to extinguish the fire of anger when you are in isolation with your husband or
your spouse, or your or your wife.
		

			Or those kids running around making you crazy. Or your mother or your in laws. Oh my god, if you
have in laws in house, then you definitely need to share this. This one with everybody. All right.
		

			So let me return back to my normal voice.
		

			I'm reading text while I'm talking. I need to stop doing that.
		

			So let me begin by sharing you sharing with you the story I was a lot of
		

			experiences in high Joe and for hedge for many years. And in one of the years in hedge. We went
through this incredible test, but throughout the hide, you know, when people would say things like
to me, I was the big leader. And they would say things like to me like at all It hurts so bad. And
then I would say to them, You mean it hurts so good. And then they would be like
		

			and it would change the atmosphere, right? Just the change of language. And this is my attitude.
Whenever somebody would start complaining start whining and hij what I would do is I would start
doing the Lubbock Allama bake with them. So somebody would be like, Oh, the buses came so late on
I'll go look bake a law, my eBay. They're like, oh the buzzer because she got like a little bit and
I would get them to remember Allah subhanaw taala move them into the Tobia and then after I think
Misamis after we would switch to you know as Eid and then the aid after Eid that's very hard day
during Hajj, the 10th of the hedger and a lot of people come and they've got their stories of what
		

			they went through and they're complaining and we just look at them dead center in the face, while
they're complaining Oh, you know, the bus is the walk there, whatever. And we're like a law who is a
law like about a law
		

			in
		

			law, a law Allah Akbar Allah Akbar while in his hand, so it would totally melt away, you know, the
pain that they went through melt away and you know, complain and if they did want to still complain
after that, look them straight in the face and do it again. Allah Who IQR Allah I totally so the
whole group was like this, this has become the staple of our group that everybody knows anybody
complains anybody's whining, anything like this, we just look them in the face and just do the tech
period. So we don't tell them don't complain. We don't tell them stop whining. We just remind them
of Allah subhanaw taala by exemplifying it in our own, you know, liquor. Okay. So,
		

			so everything's cool, had, you know, Hajj goes along. And then we go to the airport. And I went
through one of the hardest tests of my life during hijack been through a lot of, of tests. And this
is actually interesting. So it's Sarah right now your straw is trained medical professional. She's
in Spain, may Allah subhanaw taala help her help her family and people of Spain and Italy and all
around the world. And Sarah said something she said, or there is somebody she quoted, and she said
that the very calm person, and if you see her get nervous, then everybody should get nervous. A
nurse and I used to say the same thing in hutch, I would tell people not to fear not to get scared,
		

			because but if they see me nervous and scared, they need to be very nervous and scared because I've
seen lots of things during had been to be nervous and scared. So
		

			we went to the airport Hajj was done. It's like, hey, you know what everything's finished. And then
to keep a long story short, the airplane that we were we were chartered to leave from Jeddah left
without us and we had to wait for that plane to come back. So we were waiting for the plane whenever
I asked people how long did you wait for a plane? They'll say something like we had to wait for
three hours. We had to wait for eight hours. We waited in the airport for 40 hours for zero 40 hours
which is like two days. So
		

			we waited for 40 hours in the airport. We had a we were sleeping in the streets of the of the old
Jeddah airport
		

			and then
		

			It was so hard. And there was so much anger and you know, everybody's just sitting around and it was
cold. And we had there was women who were pregnant in the group.
		

			And then I got to a point, I think, like in about 34 hours into it.
		

			It was the hard time. And, and I made the intention. This after everything I've been through, and
I've had patients all throughout, I made the intent intention to punch somebody's face out. I
literally made the intention. I'm like, I'm waiting for anybody to say anything. And I'm gonna pull
out my Wolverine claws and hung them up.
		

			I was so mad, I got like, I'm finished. I'm done. It's over. And I made the intention. You have, you
know, when they say premeditated, I was premeditated.
		

			I was ready to go. So I went and I made will do and I'm like, come on, somebody say something.
Somebody say anything.
		

			This is what happened. Can you imagine what I looked like with an intention? Like?
		

			I must have looked really scary. So one of the brothers saw me come out of the blue area in the
Jeddah airport.
		

			He saw the look on my face. And you know what the first thing he said to me.
		

			He said,
		

			Allahu Akbar,
		

			Akbar on Cuba.
		

			In
		

			long, and I didn't want to see it.
		

			Because I knew what would happen.
		

			Allahu Akbar, Allah Akbar, Holly Hill, Hamed. And all my defenses dropped.
		

			And I started crying.
		

			And I said, Why should I lose my patience? What am I going to get out of it? It's Pamela, who prayed
the her. And I gave a speech after the her in the airport as we were waiting. And I told everybody
you know about all the hardships and the pains that other people have been through. And we reminded
them reminding myself that we haven't been through those hardships. And yeah, it's a little waiting
in the airport or waiting at home. But at Hamdulillah, less Panadol has protected us. And soon after
that hamdullah the airplane came and it was all good. And everything passed. So here you are, you're
in isolation. You're at home. And you know, one day it sounded like yeah, I get some extra sleep.
		

			It's kind of fun. Second day, I watch a little bit of vertigo and stuff like that. I'll get some
work done. But now as the days are moving forward,
		

			you might find yourself starting to get a little cabin fever. Cabin Fever, is this natural human
thing that when you're stuck in a cabin, maybe it's raining outside you can't go outside? You get
very kind of like anything you're a what I would say your fuse is really small, meaning very little
can trigger that fuse. And you start snapping at people and getting angry. And may Allah protect us
if you have inlaws in the house or husband and wife and things can go from I know we're joking about
this now and we're not really joking about it but but it can even get violent meaning like husband
and wife getting into you know, domestic fights and may Allah protect us can even go to another
		

			level. So here today inshallah Donna, I want to share with you ways for you to calm that down, calm
that down, relax, and how to deal with cabin fever. So here are three things from the Sunnah, that
the prophets of the ladies that have taught us that when somebody gets like, first off, a man came
to the profits of the ladies um, you know, there's a hadith that everybody's familiar with. When the
man came to the Prophet saw the light isn't him and asked, Who's most worthy of my companionship and
the prophesy Simpson, your mother, you said, then who and they said, your mother, he said, then who
he said your mother. And that's,
		

			that's a hadith that everybody remembers, right? But we also need to remember the Hadith of
		

			the Hadith when the man came to the prophesy said and said, Give me Give me advice. And the Prophet
said a lot. acnm said, let's talk about Don't get angry. And here the prophesy sentence didn't
qualify it. He didn't say Don't get angry, but get angry and other circumstances. There's no
qualification for Don't get angry. Prophets have a license said, Don't get angry. It's not part of
who you are. You're a Muslim. You don't get angry. And the man said, Okay, give me some more advice,
and prophesied cinnamon said, Don't get angry. And the man said, now give me some more advice. The
prophesy Sam said, Don't get angry. And the Hadith says for marami, Iran, Kala Tonga, he kept asking
		

			Give me some
		

			more advice, and the prophets have a license to kept telling him again and again, don't get angry.
So that's the characteristic the Sunnah that somebody wants to aspire to. Now I'm saying this, but a
lot of people really need to hear it, because it seems that Muslims I mean, it's human nature. But
it's, you know, whenever, you know, typical Muslim, they're going to show some angry dude, you know,
screaming on the news or something like that. And I'm like, and now we have the Muslims. We don't
want that the prophets of Allah de Sena was always smiling companion who when he became Muslim, he
said, I never met the prophets of Allah send them except that he was smiling. So Allah Allah said, I
		

			mean, of course, something that I wish that I can build it up more and for you to
		

			also remember that that's the Sunnah. So here are three ways, from the Sunnah on how to deal with
anger, number one,
		

			is to keep quiet, either hopefully, Bahuguna Hadith says that only about how to configure skirt.
		

			If you find yourself getting angry, then shut up.
		

			Shut up, keep your mouth quiet. Anything that comes out of your mouth is not going to be good. It's
like your brain has been hijacked with this anger. And anything that comes out of your mouth during
that anger moment is not going to be good. It's probably going to provoke and it's probably going to
lead to more anger. So if you find yourself in isolation at home, somebody made you angry, I
wouldn't say made you angry. Things happen. We're when we're in a weak states. We things that
normally don't make us angry start to make us angry. Right? So not blaming, but if you find yourself
what you're going to say is going to be something out of anger, then us could be quiet. Silence just
		

			say you know what, I'm going to take a quiet moment right now somebody else is talking Thai quiet.
It's almost like anger. You know, it takes two hands to clap. So if one person is saying something,
in order to put out that flame there has you have to take away the oxygen you have to take away I
don't know the things that will ignite that fire. You have to take it away and that is being quiet.
It's the prophets that ally said I'm first advice is when you start to feel yourself starting to get
angry. Then keep quiet and not with a I mean keep quiet. You're not like give the person an ugly
stare. Being quiet. That's provoking to like staring at them I'm angry. But I'm going to be quiet Do
		

			you know you know what I'm talking about? That's just smile and Ceylon civil play. The second thing
that you want to from the Sunnah the prophets of Allah Addison saw someone get angry. And prophets
Allah likes them said that I know a statement that if this person said it
		

			all this would go away. All his anger would go away the prophets of the lysosome said though Allah
are all the bIllahi min a share planet regime, that if the person said out of alignment to shed
light on him, so when you find yourself starting to get angry, or you're even in anger, you say owl
bIllahi min ash shaytani R rajim. I will be loving Ministry of Energy. I have a funny story of a
funny story. Since I'm on. I'm on the topic of, you know,
		

			telling you times and I've gotten anger cut angry because it gets it doesn't happen very often.
Yeah. Right. So I have these stories. So one time, one thing one of my biggest pet peeves. My
biggest pet peeves is people who park so close to your car, and they block your door. I hate that.
And I'm always you know, parking far away. It's a Canadian thing. I need my space. I'm always, you
know, finding places
		

			in parking lot far away, so one time, I park super far away, and there was no need for this person
to do what they did. They, they parked so close to my door, there was about like three millimeters
one inch for our American friends. That's not the exact conversion but you get that it left me like
three millimeters to open my door. I was so mad. was so mad. And then this time I said, You know
what? I am going to start for LA like I said, I've only thought of this once. I'm just telling you
all these times that I've gotten angry.
		

			I made the intention. I took my keys out and I said I am going to cut this person's car.
		

			I heard about people doing that in Winnipeg. It's such a such a Winnipeg thing to do. You could take
my keys and I'm going to scratch up his car How dare he park his car that close to my car.
		

			So
		

			I took my keys
		

			and I looked into this guy's car and I was ready to like, scratch up his car. How dare he park this
close to me. And you know what I saw? You know what I saw? Inside the car? The purse
		

			Sin had a towel wheeze wrapped around the wrapped around his his rear rear view mirror towers I
literally I'm looking in the car I'm so mad and it says on it I will never allow him to shave
		

			so I was like um then I'm the shape on this scenario the guy has got out of laminar shape father
regime in his car. And then
		

			so I said to myself, I'm not encouraging you to put Tao wheeze up in your car, but at this point it
saved his car from
		

			from Mr. shadecloth. May Allah protect us. So hamdulillah so that's the second thing if you get
angry, you want to say I will be learning ministry Athan ology now the beloved ministry apology,
again, not in a provoking way, if you have a spouse or an in law and they're getting angry, and
you're like, Oh, the Belemnite show up on our gym. If you say it in a provoking way, you're gonna
provoke the person. So you know, and that's not a good intention. You want to say to the person
like, oh, the bill, I'm gonna shave hundreds you know, what I call it is the DJ voice low and slow
and quiet? Would it be like a ship on
		

			a ship, nobody, like Don't provoke me, I wouldn't be
		

			quiet slow, I owe the Bellagio and you're bringing the person bringing their heartbeat down slowly
quiet. Third thing, third thing from the Sunnah that you want.
		

			You want to look at when you are if you find yourself getting angry is changing position. Or, or
going in make wudu these are two different two different Hadith. So one of them the prophets of
Allah they said if you get angry and you're standing, then sit down and if you're sitting down while
you're angry, then you should then you should lie down.
		

			That's one one Hadith so sitting down and lying down another thing that a person should do is if
they get angry, they should go and make will do the prophets of Allah they sent him said that that
anger is a fire from shale pond and fire is extinguished by water so if any of you gets angry they
should go and make will do and so the thing that you're learning here is change your state so if you
need in this times when you're like isolated and and you see some anger getting go into another room
you know go to a kitchen table maybe go in like down something like that switch the positions that
you're in we are we are done now I'm the law we went a little bit longer today. It's like a lockdown
		

			for keeping up with me here went a little bit longer today but I want to finish off with two last
things and one of them you might not relate it to anger so much. But in these times when you're
isolated at home and you're with family and things are getting a little you know little tense I want
you to remember the Hadith of the prophets that a lot I sent him a raw he Munna Your humble home or
ramen or humble Memphis or Himachal Memphis sama Prophet cellulitis and um said, The Merciful people
will be will receive mercy from the merciful subhanaw taala the merciful people will receive mercy
from the from the merciful meaning all right, man, Allah will give you mercy if you show mercy to
		

			other people, and a humble man filled up, have mercy on those who are on earth, and Allah will have
mercy. And the one in the heavens will have mercy on you. So here when you're at home, sometimes the
person that you think is, is fighting with you or provoking with you is actually playing with you. I
want you to remember that
		

			the person that you are that is provoking you at home may actually be somebody who just wants to
play with you. So it could be like your son and daughter if you have children, and they want to play
with you they just want to play but it's provoking you and you're getting angry and remember at that
point that either the Prophet said allies and um that the merciful Rahman will have mercy on you, if
you have mercy on those on the earth, maybe husband and wife, one of them slept good and drank well,
and the other one didn't and they just want to play they're like Poke, poke, poke poke you or you
know, don't poke me, right but remind yourself that to have mercy on your brothers and on your
		

			brothers and sisters and and the people in your household. The other thing that I want to remind you
of again, may not necessarily normally be connected this topic of anger in the home, but that is the
hadith of smiling prophets.
		

			a lot as Adam said,
		

			The Prophet said a lot as Adam said, if the Samuel coffee wedge he or he casada that your smile in
the face of your brother is a charity. And so as you're home and you're self isolating with your
family member to smile, remember to smile and remember to have mercy and inshallah Tada when you put
all these things together, and you put it all together, then great things will happen in sha Allah
and we are done does knock Allah Han for tuning in. I want to remind you guys we have a open and
free event. Normally in Ramadan, we do visionair which is designing green doors. And during that
time in Ramadan, it builds community we have an awesome community we build hope for the future. We
