Santa Monica, it's nice to see you again as we continue to bring the
divine into the deli, by understanding how we can
incorporate the 99 names of Allah subhanaw taala into our daily
lives to improve the relationship between us and our spouse and our
children. The name that we're going to discuss today is L word,
which means the persisting the one who wants nothing and lacks
nothing.
When we look at our relationships, oftentimes, they are built upon
desire, they're built upon want, they're built upon feeling like we
lack something. But the reality is when we feel that we lack
something in life, and that that something can only be filled by
another person, we are setting ourselves up for disappointment,
we are setting ourselves up for false expectations. Because when
we lack something in our lives, maybe it's a sense of loneliness,
maybe it's a feeling that something is missing. That sense
of seeking an all elusive happiness will often try to pin
that sense of missing something on a spouse on a child. There are
many marriages that may be going through difficulties or
struggling. And the couple may think, if we only have a child,
things will get better. Because the want for affection, the want
for appreciation, the want for a sense of completeness, is assumed
to be filled by another person. Or many times there will be
individuals who are seeking a spouse, and who will say I want to
feel loved, I want to feel complete, I need to feel XYZ and
if I get married, I will have those ones filled. Of course, this
is not the case. When we are lacking something internally,
something emotional, something that we feel is missing in our
lives. The first place that we should turn is not to the left or
to the right to look for a person, but it's upwards to seek the
guidance of Allah subhanaw taala to seek the guidance of a legit,
who wants nothing who lacks nothing, and who we pray will
allow us to feel fulfilled in the best of ways, not by anchoring our
hopes and our dreams and our wants and our desires to another person.
But by anchoring those hopes, those dreams, those desires, to
the love of Allah subhanaw taala does that come a low head? And I
pray that a legend allows us all to find that serenity in our
relationships by looking upwards rather than around us, the sun
