Salam aleikum, it's nice to see you again as we continue to

00:00:04 --> 00:00:07

discuss how we can bring the divine characteristics of the 99

00:00:07 --> 00:00:11

names of Allah subhanaw taala into our daily lives to improve our

00:00:11 --> 00:00:14

relationships with our family and our spouses. So the name that

00:00:14 --> 00:00:18

we're going to discuss today is El bossier, which means the old

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

saying, within a relationship, we've talked quite frequently in

00:00:22 --> 00:00:25

our episodes about the importance of building trust, and

00:00:25 --> 00:00:30

particularly in terms of enhancing that marital bond. When we trust

00:00:30 --> 00:00:35

our spouse, we don't have that temptation of trying to see

00:00:35 --> 00:00:39

everything that the spouse is doing. Yet, the reality is, we

00:00:39 --> 00:00:43

often come to a place where we begin to think that if my spouse

00:00:43 --> 00:00:47

doesn't know, then it's okay, if my spouse doesn't see something,

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

then it's okay. And one of the unfortunate phenomenons that we're

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

seeing in our counseling center quite frequently these days is the

00:00:54 --> 00:00:59

issue of infidelity. And that infidelity often arises first from

00:00:59 --> 00:01:03

that need to satisfy the neffs, despite going against the will of

00:01:03 --> 00:01:07

Allah subhanaw taala. But second, from that feeling of what my

00:01:07 --> 00:01:11

spouse doesn't know what won't hurt him or won't hurt her. And of

00:01:11 --> 00:01:15

course, Allah subhanaw taala is embassy of all seeing, and he sees

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

everything. So when we act in our relationships with a loss of

00:01:19 --> 00:01:23

funnel data, first and foremost in mind, recognizing that he is a

00:01:23 --> 00:01:27

loss here, and that he will see everything that we do. This is

00:01:27 --> 00:01:31

where we can stop ourselves from going down that path of thinking

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

something is okay to do if our spouse doesn't see it. The same

00:01:35 --> 00:01:39

goes for our children in terms of Serbia, and trying to raise them

00:01:39 --> 00:01:43

in a way where they understand the concept of Taqwa where they love

00:01:43 --> 00:01:47

Allah subhanaw taala. And they fear a lot out of a love for him,

00:01:47 --> 00:01:52

because they recognize that he is Elbasy SME are all seeing and the

00:01:52 --> 00:01:57

All Hearing when we talk about seeing this brings us to another

00:01:57 --> 00:01:59

point that's incredibly important in the relationship in the

00:01:59 --> 00:02:03

marriage relationship in particular, which is that we do

00:02:03 --> 00:02:07

tend to judge with our eyes. And although will often say beauty is

00:02:07 --> 00:02:11

in the eye of the beholder. In the marriage relationship. After the

00:02:11 --> 00:02:15

first year passes, and the second year passes, maybe taking care of

00:02:15 --> 00:02:19

our looks becomes less of a priority. And we begin to think

00:02:19 --> 00:02:23

that it's okay to be comfortable at home. And as much as that

00:02:23 --> 00:02:28

comfort is a huge important part of being building that trust

00:02:28 --> 00:02:31

between husband and wife. It's also important to recognize that

00:02:31 --> 00:02:34

the same way that you might want to beautify yourself when you

00:02:34 --> 00:02:37

leave the home, you would want to beautify yourself within the home

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

as well. And it's not just a shallow beautification, but that

00:02:41 --> 00:02:45

beautification comes with a smile. It comes with an expression that

00:02:45 --> 00:02:49

is soften. It comes with gestures that are not threatening or that

00:02:49 --> 00:02:53

are not putting someone down. And that's where the true beauty comes

00:02:53 --> 00:02:58

from. And again, seeing that in the relationship helps the spouse

00:02:58 --> 00:03:01

get closer and closer to one another. I pray that Allah

00:03:01 --> 00:03:05

subhanaw taala and Basir allows us to see only the best in our

00:03:05 --> 00:03:09

spouses always to see the best in our children, and to help guide

00:03:09 --> 00:03:13

them to recognize what true Taqwa is and how to connect with Allah

00:03:13 --> 00:03:17

Subhana Allah Elbasy and all that they do, just like a low head and

00:03:17 --> 00:03:21

I look forward to speaking to you again in our next episode, as we

00:03:21 --> 00:03:24

continue to bring the divine into the daily salamati
