Suhaib Webb – The Power of Effective Communication- Learn to Connect and Thrive

The Most Merciful

who taught the Quran

created people

and taught

human

beings how to communicate.

Allah says by You know the Quran, we

sent it in Arabic.

This clear book of the Quran, revealed in

Arabic so you can think.

As to people of knowledge if you don't.

Same thing in personal relationships.

Usually, when I see marriages destabilizing,

very rarely is it

that they don't like each other.

Usually,

they don't know how to communicate with each

other.

In fact, I've seen people who don't like

each other, who get communicate effectively, and they

stay together.

Because communication leads to security.

And I've seen people who like each other,

but they don't know how to communicate, and

their marriage falls apart.

It's interesting.

It's very important to communicate,

to push in. And sometimes when we parent,

we have to be very careful. I know

for those of us who became Muslim, we're

protective parents.

We feel we have to protect.

You know, I'm the old Muslim in my

family. I have to go hard and I

paint. You know, I have to put pressure.

But what happens is we undermine

our

young adults ability

to have the

necessary,

if you will, bravery

to formulate their own ideas and questions and

communicate

that allows them to become

normal adults.
