Yeah.
So it's nice to speak with you again, as we continue to journey
into an understanding of the 99 names of Allah subhanaw taala, and
how we can incorporate the characteristics of those names
into our daily lives. So the name that we're going to discuss today,
in this episode of the program is the name of SNM. Allah subhanaw
taala attributes the name of SLM to himself, which means the peace
in our homes and our relationships, in our marriages,
in our relationships with our children. We are constantly
seeking the element of peace. We're looking for that sanctity,
that connection, that feeling of tranquility that can enter our
hearts in the relationship.
But why is that search for peace? Sometimes so difficult? Why is it
hard sometimes to find that type of peace at home
and struggling to seek peace? A lot of times we are plagued with
self doubts. We are plagued with questions, we are plagued with
worries were plagued with wondering
what the other person is thinking or what they're saying or what
they mean. And the lack of peace in the home is often built upon
misunderstanding and miscommunication. Many times we'll
enter into homes or our own homes, and we'll see that there is strife
between husband and wife. And there's this constant turmoil
that's occurring, whether it's because there's a life of running
around, where one is constantly leaving the home, the other is
coming back into the home, the children are being dropped off at
this activity at that activity. There's school, there's work, and
that sense of peace seems to be missing. How do we bring it back
into our lives.
The importance of that is a crucial element in realigning
ourselves and being able to reconnect not just with one
another in our families and our homes, but also to reconnect to
Allah subhanaw taala. Sometimes all it means is that on the drive
home, from work on the drive, to school to pick up the children,
and the drive, coming back or forth from one of the million busy
elements that consume our lives, pausing for a little bit,
remembering the names of Allah subhanaw taala, saying the Salawat
Allah the beloved Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
reminding ourselves of what our purpose is. That's one way that we
can incorporate peace into our personal spiritual realm. When we
enter into our homes, with that sense of peace, from the spiritual
perspective, we'll be able to bring that sense of peace into our
homes. Because then when we enter our homes, and we meet our spouse
at the door, or we meet our children, after school, we've
already re centered and re aligned ourselves. And we're ready to
connect with them on a level where we can truly love our children and
love our spouse for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala.
So it's not an easy task, to try to overtake to try to complete
finding that peace in the home. But it is the most important
element of keeping the sanity of the home keeping the sanctity of
the home by introducing that element of peace in the home. So I
urge you today to give it a try.
When you feel like the world is crashing down around you, when you
feel like you're being pushed from side to side, what it feels like
at every turn. There's another bombardment coming towards you.
Take a deep breath.
Remember Allah subhanaw Medina, remember the creator who is SLM.
And try to incorporate that Salem into your own connection with him
and into your connection with your spouse, with your children and
with your entire family. I pray that Allah subhanaw taala allows
us to incorporate SLM in all that we do to allow us to connect with
our spouses in a way of peace to allow us to raise our children in
a peaceful manner as well so that we can have closer and closer
towards establishing peaceful homes. Just like I'm a law here,
and I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow evening as we
discuss the next name of the 99 names of Allah subhanaw taala
