Imagine being the mother
who fears already for the life of your
son
and then
receives commandment from God to just put your
son in flowing waters.
The Quran describes this moment
and says,
I'll translate.
And we inspired
the mother of Musa.
Suckle him. Nurse him.
But when you fear for him,
put him into the river,
and do not fear
and do not grieve.
Indeed will we return him to you
and make him one of the messengers?
Now imagine
imagine the pain in a mother's heart.
Already knowing your son is at risk for
murder and many other boys have been murdered,
And imagine the heart of a mother that
has to place her newborn son into a
basket in flowing waters,
not knowing
where he will go.
And so the Quran describes
the emotional
state
of Musa,
the mother of Musa.
The Quran says,
I'll translate.
The Quran says, the heart of the mother
of Musa ached so much,
ached
so much
that she almost gave away his identity. And
then Allah
said,
had we not reassured
her hearts?
Had we not reassured
her heart
in order for her to have faith
in Allah's promise.
I'm gonna pause for a moment.
This verse
is so powerful.
Today,
sisters and brothers,
when we look at what's happening in the
world around us,
one of the biggest
trials
in modern
human history
is witnessing
a genocide unfold right
before your
eyes
and feeling helpless
and feeling
you're seeing
live
death and murder and destruction
daily
in the palms of your hands.
These phones, these computers
live
in real time.
Chills. Chills. Chills. Chills.
And you look at the face of a
living today person, not a historical story.
Today.
And to understand that the Quran is not
merely words.
It's not merely stories.
It is healing
in itself.
It is noor. It is light.
It is the words of Allah
himself.
And when we hear these words, not just
with our ears,
but with our hearts,
there is healing
even in the most impossible
situation.
