			With it in Valhalla, Wakulla dot infinity. I'm about
		
00:05:43 --> 00:06:34
			brothers and sisters, as we adopt to this new way of life. And we have this idea that when this
pandemic may be over, we talk about now that when this pandemic is over, I will do this, and so
forth. Yet, as we go through this Subhanallah, I'm still seeing within the community, the leadership
of this machine, we've keep on receiving phone calls, about how people are still trying to cope with
this way of life, how people are going through family struggles, economic struggles, children are
getting bored at home, the children are eating the minds of the parents, parents are getting sick of
their children at home. And then because of this, there's a lot of tension. There's a lot of
		
00:06:34 --> 00:07:19
			frustration between the spouses, brothers and sisters, we all understand that first of all, this
pandemic was never going to be easy. But at the same time, you and me being a Muslim, we remind
ourselves the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam were in he says, I just been the
unreal movement in Umrah, hula hula who hired no matter what situation is, if there are times of
prosperity, they are good for us. And if there are times of difficulty, they are also good for us.
Why? Because when there are times of difficulty, and you and I we are patient, and we ask Allah
subhanho wa Taala for IVF then not only will inshallah Allah will help us get through this, but
		
00:07:19 --> 00:08:01
			Allah will elevate our Daraja in Jannah in sha Allah, through this we learn from the hadith of
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, that even a prick of a thorn that touches or thorn that
breaks a person or hurts a person, even that will be a means of your sins being forgiven. So what do
you think about this situation? Most certainly Allah subhanho wa taala, Allah will forgive us in sha
Allah, if we are patient, and we continuously ask Allah Subhana Allah what the Allah. But today
quickly in my football, I want to talk about few things from the perspective of a family. Today,
many families are struggling during this pandemic, and just wanted to share a few things, first of
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:38
			all, is that every family is very different. There is no doubt about the fact that every family is
different. There are some families that has they have one child, there are some children, there are
some families that have four to five children is difficult is different. There are some families are
absolutely there are some other struggles, there might be some families that are considered special
needs families, there are going to be struggles over there too. So when it comes to these kinds of
details, you have to figure out on your own, talk to your family, sit down with your family, you are
a family at the end of the day, talk to each other and see how you can work around it. But at the
		
00:08:38 --> 00:09:19
			same time, there are few things that we can keep in mind. few important points that we can keep in
mind. Number one is that no matter what situation that we are going through, there's always another
family. There's always another person who's going through more struggles than us. Brothers and
sisters. Look at the CETA of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I always stress upon this the
seed of the Prophet, the seed of the Prophet why? Because the CETA of the Prophet sunnah has so many
gems, it has so many lessons, so many reflections for all of us, because of Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, as he has in a hadith that no one has gone through amount of struggles, the amount
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:59
			of struggles as as much as I have been through the problems or Salam was the epitome when it came to
struggles. Allah subhanho wa Taala put so many difficulties upon Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and that's why when he went through those difficulties, what the Allah told us, Allah Allahu
Allah, he was send them go back to the Quran, why would Allah share the story of Musa alayhis salam,
and who the alayhi salam and luta Allah He Islam, and Ibrahim Ali he sang with the Prophet SAW Salem
to soothe his pain. When we go through these difficulties, we go back to these stories, and I can
almost guarantee you that we will find an example in the Stories of the Prophets and then we'll
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:41
			When we see what they have done, then inshallah Tao will be a consolation for us. So always is
important to understand, there's always someone who has a more difficulty than us, we think that we
are in the most amount of problems. But Wallahi when you go around, when you talk to other people,
you will realize, and the only thing that will come from your tongue is Subhan, Allah And
Alhamdulillah because you will realize at times that there are other people who are in more
difficult situations than you. That's why at all times, say Alhamdulillah, all times, no matter what
situation you are in, thank Allah subhanho wa taala. Because our situation could be even worse, our
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:44
			situation could be worse. The second thing that we need to do
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			when it comes to issues in our families
		
00:10:50 --> 00:11:31
			is that it takes two people, at least the husband and the wife, to sit down and fix the situation,
just like it takes two people to bring a human being into this life to create a human being.
Likewise, it takes both of them to sit down and resolve the issues. Today's Subhanallah how many
times I receive phone calls, that the wife wants to fix the situation, but the husband does not want
to, or sometimes the husband wants to, and the wife does not want to brothers and sisters, if you
want the situation, your family to get better. Both people need to come to the table. Both people
need to make some compromises, it cannot be my way or the highway, it cannot just be my way. And
		
00:11:31 --> 00:12:13
			that is it. It does not work like that. We don't see that in the nature of Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, if you and I we follow Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the Prophet was
never have this kind of personality, he never had this kind of mind frame in this mindset when it
came to this family. So therefore, both people need to sit down and discuss their issues. The third
thing that's very, very important is that you have to remove the ego when it comes to these kinds of
matters, especially within a family SubhanAllah. So many people have these egos. And remember the
ego does not give you the ability to see see things correctly, the ego will will cloud your
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:55
			judgment, that ego will put your feelings before other people's feelings, that ego will create you
as a narcissistic person, and it will create narcissism within you. And it will not create the
emotional intelligence that we find in life. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, brothers and
sisters, when it comes to a family, you have to put aside your ego, because we're loving, having an
ego in a family is going to only destroy the situation. If you say that, no, I don't care what's
right and what's wrong. I'm gonna do what I want to do, because that is what ego is ego and Kibber
is what they you put down the hack, you suppress the hack, because when you see that what is right
		
00:12:55 --> 00:13:37
			and what is wrong, and deep down inside, you still say I'm going to do what I want to do, because I
think it is right, then that means that we have ego in our heart. And when a person becomes
egotistical than they always then eventually they will resort to gold, and they will do doom upon
their family members. And I want to remind myself and everyone here that when the Prophet salallahu
it he was sending him once he was passing by. I've mentioned this hadith before by he passed by a
Sahabi by the name of Abu Massoud, not even a boumous Oh god Allah Tron, he was hitting his his
slave or his servant. And the Prophet said, Allahu Allah, he was sending him he got upset with him.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:14:21
			He didn't even ask him. Why are you doing this because the fact that he's hitting him is wrong to
begin with. There is no justification for wrong, there is no justification for one. And then he
reminded us that just like today, you think that you have power over this person. Likewise, a day
will come that someone else will have power over you, when we do wrong to someone else. Remember
that Allah will hold us accountable today we do wrong to others, because I feel like I am powerful.
Remember that there is another one that is more powerful than us. So keep this in mind. And finally,
I will say the last thing that we can do is quickly I want to go through this is apply some emotions
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:59
			into your life. Try to understand the other person. The problem is that Allahu alayhi wa sallam he
told the eyeshadow the Allah Quran ha. Oh Aisha, I know when you are upset with me, and I know when
you're happy with me. She said, How do you know that? He says that Allahu alayhi wa sallam, that
when you are pleased with me, when you are happy with me, you say by the Lord of Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, and when you are upset with me, you say by the Lord of Ibrahim alayhis salam, she
was even shocked herself. That the problem he picked up on this, there were small, small things and
it was something he did to show that how much he cared about other people's feelings. The prophets
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			of salaam he
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:40
			If you remember the story, I also shared the story one time, that once Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam. In fact, the story goes on that there were two people that came to eyeshadow, the Allah
Tirana and the SI Isha Rhodiola. And how about a story that she remembers from the life of the
province of Salem? And what does she say? She says, I remember one night that the province has some
he came and he lived down next to me. And then he got up he got up and he says, Oh, I Isha. Permit
me or do you permit me that I spent the night instead of next to you? I spent my night with Allah
subhanho wa taala. And she said yes. And what she is and what is mentioned from this is the fact
		
00:15:40 --> 00:16:20
			that the person did not even need the permission of Aisha she not need he did not need her approval
to go and do a bother to Allah subhanho wa Taala with the Prophet it is on realizes that tonight is
her hug tonight is her turn. That's why I'm at her house. And tonight I spend it with Allah subhanho
wa Taala the province Salam he took permission and went away from inshallah the Allah to Allah. He
got her approval because he understands her feelings. If the person just did what he wants to do,
and did not care about his feelings. How would I shall feel this is emotional intelligence. This is
how Ross who has a solemn from his kind and tender heart, he cared about other people's feelings.
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:56
			This is what we need to do. When we talk about being like Rasuwa Allahu Allah, He will send them
what Allah he will law he Rasulullah saw some never will put himself above other people. It was
always about other people, their feelings, their emotions, before his feelings and before his
emotions. I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to give us the o'clock and the emotion intelligence of
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to bring peace in our
families, this difficult time that we are going through I asked Allah subhana without to remove the
difficulties that we are going through what each one of us are, are experiencing on an individual
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:11
			basis. And may Allah make a make our matters easy for us and Middleburg. Alameen Baraka hola hola
