			Hi, I'm Monica, it's nice to see
you all again, as we continue with
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:10
			Episode 10, of bringing the Divine
Names of Allah subhanaw taala into
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:14
			our daily lives, to improve our
relationships and our families and
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:18
			our homes. So today, the name that
we're going to discuss is Al
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:23
			Jabbar, the name Al Jabbar of the
99 names of Allah subhanaw. Taala
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			means the Compeller.
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			What does it mean to compel?
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:33
			Essentially, when we look at the
word compel, we may think of
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:37
			negative connotations when applied
to the human beings. Of course, we
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:41
			know the names of Allah subhanaw,
taala, supersede anything that we
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:47
			could and act upon here on Earth.
But when we think of compelling in
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:51
			a human sense of the term, many
times in the relationship dynamic,
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:55
			compelling someone to do something
may feel very much like
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:59
			controlling someone in the
relationship between husband and
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:04
			wife, it's very frequent, that
we'll see this as an issue or a
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:09
			block in the relationship where
one partner feels like there is
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:15
			control that is exerted upon him
or her. And oftentimes, you know,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:20
			the understanding of Aboriginal a
woman and the set, which is the
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:25
			men are the protectors of the
woman can often be misinterpreted
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			or applied incorrectly, in a way
where it becomes an issue of
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:34
			control or a forceful, compelling.
And this, of course, is not of the
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:39
			dean, because there is no such
thing as compelling someone to do
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:44
			something or controlling someone's
action in a marriage relationship
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48
			that is meant to be a partnership,
when the US was the Lohani, who is
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:53
			self described in his last hotbar,
in his last word, so the OMA
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:59
			before his passing, he spoke of
the rights that men have over
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:03
			women, but the rights that women
also have over men. And in those
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:08
			last words, he reminded the onma
he told the men of the Ummah,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			in describing the husband and wife
relationship,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:18
			he told them to be kind, and to be
compassionate, because husband and
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:21
			wife in the description of the
Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:27
			wasallam are like partners. And
that partnership is not built upon
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:31
			one person controlling the other.
It's not built upon, forceful,
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:36
			compelling, but instead, it's
built upon compassion. Instead,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:40
			it's built upon connection, and
instead it's built upon
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:44
			understanding one another, and
compromising rather than
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:49
			controlling. So I pray that Allah
subhanaw taala continues to bless
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:54
			our marriages, bless our homes,
bless our families, and allow us
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:58
			all to reap the benefits of these
last 10 nights of Ramadan and to
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:03
			be the best that we can be to our
families, to our spouses to our
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:07
			children, and in our homes. Just a
common law here was that Emma had
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:08
			a camera
