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 puzzle parts are interested.
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 on the
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.
That's why sometimes they have the marriage crisis
in the world. We didn't teach young people
how to communicate their emotions. We just told
them it's it's it's a shame that you
talk to me. It's disrespect that you talk
No. No. No.
Let them disrespect you so they don't disrespect
others. At least they learn this is not
appropriate behavior. And you teach them and you
guide them and you talk to them. You
help them regulate their emotions.
So what I'm telling you is important, not
just in the sense of how we engage
religion in 2,024,
but how we engage each other.
