hadoo Allah Illallah Hua Hona Shetty kala wash Hello Anna Mohammed and I will do one more a pseudo
Yeah, are you Hello Dina. I'm an otaku Allahu Akbar to call to Walter moto Illa, one to Muslim on
Ahmedabad. Dear Muslims in a previous hutzpah, I had begun the topic of the blessings of marriage.
And there is no question that Allah Subhana Allah Allah and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
have sanctified this union of marriage
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:47
			In fact, Allah calls it in the Quran Meetha Cancale via a very sacred and firm contract, a covenant.
Allah calls the marriage Ummi Thach. And metok means a very strict covenant and then to make it even
stricter, Allah says Allah deal. It's something that is very intertwined and bound together. And
there is no question dear Muslims, that of the goals of the Sharia is the flourishing of our
marriages. I want you to think about that of the goals of the Sharia. Allah wants my marriage and
your marriage to succeed. The goals of the Sharia are the laws of the Quran. They are Hadith of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, they are all aimed in this regard when it comes to marriage.
		
00:05:47 --> 00:06:36
			They are aimed at increasing the love between the spouses. It is a desired and explicit goal that
Allah azza wa jal has intended for our marriages to flourish. In fact, we learn from the Hadith that
shape on is actively breaking bonds. Shavon sends his minions shaytaan sends His ambassadors to try
to break the bonds of marriage. And we learned in the Hadith in Abu Dhabi, that when a husband and
wife divorce because of the whisperings of Shavon Shavon welcomes the evil gem that caused that and
said you have done something magnificent. So dear brothers, if shaytaan is happy when a divorce
occurs. This means that by fulfilling the marriage contract and protecting the marriage contract, we
		
00:06:36 --> 00:07:24
			are pleasing Allah and rejecting shape on it is of the goals of the surety that we make our marriage
flourish. However, the Shediac comes with generic guidelines. In the end of the day, the work has to
be done by me and by you. The work has to be done by each of the two partners. And so today's holds
up well in sha Allah to Allah summarize five practical tips, five practical pieces of advice and
wisdom from the Quran and from the Sunnah, and from the syrup and also from human experience and
wisdom. First and foremost, I began by stating that it is explicitly mentioned in the Quran and in
the Sunnah, that when it comes to marriage, we do not concentrate on the false and the mistakes of
		
00:07:24 --> 00:08:06
			our partner. This is one of the biggest issues that happens in a marriage, that the good of our
partner is overlooked and the negative or the bad characteristics are exaggerated. Allah subhanho wa
Taala explicitly says in the Quran, that it is not allowed for a believing man to hate a believing
woman meaning a husband and wife they should not have this and Allah says why certain Takara who che
and we urge Allah Allahu Fie, he hyaluron Kathy Rob, perhaps you might not like something meaning in
the marriage, but Allah azza wa jal has brought about a lot of good through this marriage, you are
concentrating on the negative, but Allah is saying you don't know perhaps there's a lot of head in
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:54
			this. Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in an authentic hadith, let not know believing
husband, hate, despise a believing wife. Meaning if you have Iman, if you have Why did he say
believing means if you have Iman, then allow that Eman to keep your hatred in check. Let no husband
who has Iman hate his believing wife and vice versa also let no believing wife hate her husband. Why
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, if you are not happy with one characteristic for sure,
you will be happy with another. This is a very, very simple point of psychology to your brothers and
sisters. And that is before you jump to the negatives before you think about what irritates you
		
00:08:54 --> 00:09:35
			before you concentrate on what you don't like. You have already jumped over and taken for granted
what you do like you're ignoring that because human nature is you take the good for granted. We
don't realize how blessed we are with our health until we don't have it with our wealth until we
don't have it. So too. We don't appreciate the good in our spouse that good that perhaps at the
beginning of our marriage, we appreciated we fell in love with but then we take that good for
granted. So Allah and His Messenger explicitly have said to us, don't just concentrate on the
negatives. Look at the broader picture. And for sure, do your brother and sister for sure. If you
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:59
			have one characteristic you don't like you're overlooking a characteristic that you should like
perhaps one of you has a temper but that same one might also be very loving with the children.
Perhaps one of you might want to spend more money than your budget allows but they're also a very
loving partner when it comes to words when it comes to emotions. Why overlook the good and
concentrate on the bad also within
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:42
			this point as well, we need to point out a very fundamental problem, especially of modern society.
And that is this notion that everybody else's marriage is good. But my marriage is not good that you
idealize and romanticize every other marriage, and especially with the social media culture, and the
dramas that are what everybody is watching in Hollywood and Bollywood and all of this, you got this
impression that everybody's marriage is a bed of roses. And then shaytaan comes in, says, Oh, I am
suffering. I'm the one in this situation. Dear brothers, dear sisters, every single marriage has its
ups and downs. And don't be fooled by the outer glitter that you think you see, I will tell you on a
		
00:10:42 --> 00:11:18
			personal anecdote when I first got married more than 20 years ago, and hamdulillah been married more
than 20 years when I first got married. And I was still very innocent about marriage and whatnot. I
remember there was a friend of mine who married before me. And we would think this couple is the
most romantic and the most loving couple, every conversation we had, each spouse would bring up the
other spouse praise the other spouse, we would think this is the epitome of a beautiful marriage.
One day, I got a phone call from this brother. And he said, Sure, please come to my house. It's an
emergency. And I worried I drove to his house, this is more than 20 years ago, drove to his house.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:12:00
			Turns out, they're on the verge of divorce. And I was shocked. I could not understand this couple
whom all of society thought is the ideal couple, the romantic couple, the loving couple. And as the
conversations proceeded, I realized and they confessed that that outer shell of love and romance, it
was a complete facade, it was a complete act that they were doing. In reality, their marriage was in
shambles for a long period of time. And actually, that particular couple ended up divorcing one
another. Why do I say this, because shaytaan comes to you. And shaitan says to you, your marriage is
bad, your marriage is pathetic. Everybody else's marriage is good. And that is not the case. Every
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:41
			one of us is struggling in our own ways. And every marriage is a work in progress. Concentrate on
what you have. The grass looks greener on the other side. But it is not the case, every single
couple as its own situations. So you deal with yours, and you look at the positive before you get to
the negative. I'm not saying there's no negative. But what did the prophets have some say before you
jump to the negative look at the positive as well. So in your mind, you're irritated at one
characteristic one attribute before you dwell on that, think about at least two or three positives
that your partner has, and then see if those positives can cause you to outweigh those negatives. My
		
00:12:41 --> 00:13:21
			second point, which is explicit in the Quran, as well, the second point that we learned from the
Quran, when it comes to these negatives, yes, we all have negatives. Allah explicitly says when it
comes to marriage, Allah explicitly says, try to forgive and overlook and conceal the faults of your
partner as much as possible. You cannot create your partner in your perfect image, just like your
partner cannot create you in their perfect image. So learn to accept your partner with the mistakes
and the false that he or she has, in a famous hadith of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
which he's speaking to the man. So he's speaking in a language that they can understand. He talks
		
00:13:21 --> 00:14:00
			about women being created from a rib and the rib is inherently crooked. Then he says to the men, you
cannot straighten this rib according to your parameters. You cannot straighten this, if you try to
straighten it, you will end up cracking it. And by cracking it, he said, it means you will divorce
the point here. Every man, every woman, they have a different way of thinking psychologically, men
and women are different. And sometimes it gets frustrating for men and women to be dealing with one
another when they're so different. What did our profit system mean by this crooked grip and ology he
meant you cannot achieve perfection from your paradigm. You want a woman to act and think and
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:37
			interact with you like a man but she's not she's a woman. And the same with the woman she wants the
man to act and have emotions like a woman, but that's not going to happen. So accept how each one
has been created by Allah because each one has a role and each one is complementary to the other in
the Quran even more explicit, Allah subhanho wa Taala says that Oh you who believe some of your
families and some of your spouses they are your enemies I do welcome here enemy does not mean
religious enemy and me means that sometimes they're doing things are gonna get on your nerves is
going to be problematic. It might cause you to have an issue even with your faith so they're your
		
00:14:37 --> 00:15:00
			enemies. Then what does Allah say? We're in Tau Foo, what does sweat who were tofu for in Allah
hello for Rahim, if you forgive and you overlook and you cover up their faults, that Allah as well
as afford and Rahim, this is an exquisite verse when it comes to marriage that Allah is commanding
the spouses to learn
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:41
			To forgive the other, you're not going to achieve perfection. Your spouse has mistakes like you have
mistakes. If you want the marriage to flourish, you will have to perfect the art what entire food.
What else for what tofu, each of these adjectives, each of these verbs indicates forgiving,
forgetting turning over a new leaf to a full you erase it as if it never happens, forgive and forget
what she said to you or what harsh word was said by him to you just forgive it and ignore it thus
far who turn over a new leaf it's a new day does for her literally mean stuff out to turn over and
you leave the past was the past, let it be the past what tell Pharaoh if you can either do awful or
		
00:15:41 --> 00:16:22
			suffer. The third thing tell Pharaoh, remember, but forgive it in your heart. Because baffled means
you don't even think about it. The software means it's in the past, you're not going to dwell upon
it. If you cannot get to that level, the least you can do just forgive. And then Allah incentivizes.
And Allah says, just like you forgive her or she forgives you, so too, I can forgive the both of you
don't you want Allah to forgive you as well. So in the Quran, we learn another important tactic of
marriage and that is the tactic of forgiving the partner of having a clean heart of learning to
think of the past as the past and not keep on bringing it up over and over again. That is the second
		
00:16:22 --> 00:17:05
			Quranic advice. So number one, think of the good before you get to the bad. Number two, when it
comes to the bad try to forgive and try to forget number three, what if you cannot, what if that
issue really is bothering you what if you cannot forgive and forget what if a mistake was made or
something said or a characteristic or habit that simply cannot be ignored what is to be done? Then?
Allah azza wa jal mentions a third aspect in the Quran. And that is while salehoo higher form a
solar, a solar, literally the term is applied to a peace treaty, a solar means a conciliation. This
is what the term the Quran uses that the husband and wife should form a solar and solar means that
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:45
			each party comes to the table and discusses the problem. You know, literally when two countries are
at war, and a solar takes place, what must happen, they must come to the table, and they must
discuss the problems very frankly, and they have to reach a compromise. This in Arabic is called
solar peace treaty. And Allah uses the same term between husband and wife who are fighting one
another. And what this means, just like the husband and wife is a partnership between two people. If
you want the partnership to succeed, each of the two has to put in the effort to get that
compromise. No marriage will succeed. If one of the partners refuses to do anything, no marriage
		
00:17:45 --> 00:18:27
			will succeed until both of the partners puts in an effort. And if you want to receive something from
your spouse, dear husband, dear wife, you must also give something to your spouse, if you want to
receive you must be willing to give as well. And therefore if you want the marriage to succeed, and
if you want the marriage to flourish, then you as well put in the effort. In fact, may I even
encourage you to be the first to put in the effort. Allah says in the Quran with regards to two
people who are enemies and fighting this isn't about marriage, we can apply to marriage that Allah
says in the Quran, that it is possible that if you just you know, be be generous and be kind that
		
00:18:27 --> 00:19:09
			ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala will bring that kindness between them. You do not know your enemy can become
your best friend. Allah says in the Quran, you do not know your enemy can become your best friend,
if only you show that kindness. If this is about two warring people, what do you think about husband
and wife so before you bring up the mistakes of your partner, come to the table metaphorically and
literally, and express your own mistakes and desire to correct and then bring up the mistakes of
your partner and see what can be done. Our Prophet Sall Allahu alayhi wa sallam also gave us another
piece of advice. Hadith in Sahih. Muslim, he said, and Allah gives via kindness, what Allah does not
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:51
			give via force and pressure. Allah gives me relief cream, when you're kind when you're gentle, Allah
will give you what Allah will not give you when you're angry. And when you're pressuring, and when
you're forcing. So when you're nice and sweet, when you're loving and kind to people, Allah will
give you much more than when you're angry when you're mean when you're nasty when you're trying to
force pressure. So if this is a generic Hadith, in any transaction, how much more so between husband
and wife therefore dear couple, dear husband, dear wife, if there is an issue that is extremely
troubling, and it is a mistake and you cannot ignore it, and you cannot forgive it, well, then it
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:59
			must be brought up. It needs to be brought up and that bringing up needs to take place with kindness
with gentleness and it should take place and the right time.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:43
			I am and the right ambiance and the right language, and no one can teach you how to influence your
partner better than you yourself. You've been married 510 2030 years, no one knows your spouse and
the psychology of your spouse better than you. So if you want the marriage to succeed, then you come
with the love and the compassion and the tenderness that only you know your partner will appreciate.
And you come with a sincere heart, and you use soft language and you use the language of us and our
marriage and not accusing you did this and you did that because that's not going to be helpful. That
is not psychologically helpful. In fact, if you read books of a psychologist, and books of marital
		
00:20:43 --> 00:21:26
			help and tips, one of the simple tips that we can use is to eliminate the accusative you and to
start saying, we are I anything you want to say you think about how to change it into AI. When you
talk about yourself and your feelings automatically you tone down when you accuse the other person
becomes defensive. So when example you are irritated by somebody coming home late, like your husband
might be working late for example, and you say you always come home late, you never call you never
spend time. That's accusative human nature, when you're accusing the other person will become
defensive, the other person will become automatically irritated, flip it around and say, I feel
		
00:21:26 --> 00:22:10
			lonely. When you don't come home. You flip it around and you talking about your own emotions. I feel
as if nobody's here and I feel all alone. When you're coming home late you don't call etc. All of a
sudden, instead of accusing you are now describing your pain, your suffering and if your partner has
any love, then automatically it will change the discourse. So ask yourself dear couple, husband and
wife ask yourself what is the goal of bringing up your partners false? Is the goal to vent your
frustration? Is the goal to irritate your partner? Is the goal to make your partner angry? Or is the
goal to bring about actual change because a good marriage is good for you and your partner and the
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:55
			children and society. If the goal is actual change, then swallow your ego control your pride and
don't accuse rather speak of us together speak of your issues my I have an issue with this I am in
discomfort It hurts me to see you like this and it will automatically change the discourse. So the
third piece of advice again straight from the Quran and Sunnah was so high that find some type of
compromise. And by the way, compromise means each side must be willing to give nobody's perfect and
if you want to receive you must also be willing to give. This is the third advice from the Quran and
the Sunnah, the fourth advice that I have for myself and all of you. The fourth advice is that one
		
00:22:55 --> 00:23:35
			of the most important aspects of a healthy marriage is to have quality time between the spouses is
to have quality time that is meant only for the spouses, private time for the family, and then also
for the spouses alone. And we are all aware of that famous incident in the Sierra that occurred
multiple times that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told the Companions when they're coming
back from a journey, he said to them, you go, the Medina was close by you go, and Aisha and myself
will stay here. He didn't tell them why what would what did they plan to do? They're going to do
races in the sand. We all know that hadith. We've all heard this hadith that our Isha and the
		
00:23:35 --> 00:24:11
			Prophet SAW Selim, when they were outside the city, the cities close by. And by the way, in those
days, the world was very dangerous. You couldn't have couples going for a honeymoon or couples going
for, you know, a vacation didn't work that way. But this is the closest that that timeframe would
would allow what was the closest when they see the city in the distance relatively safe, the
prophets of some said to the Sahaba you go, and I shall we will remain here. They all went on just
the two of them. And then what did they do? They literally played in the sand. They literally set a
place. This is where we're going to begin the race. We're going to end the race. And then he did it
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:49
			again, as we're all aware, and I Aisha Radi Allahu anha. She's remembering this 50 years later,
she's remembering this as an old lady. She's reminiscing about her youth and look at those even
though it would have been half an hour one hour, but that quality time, I should have the Allah one
is embedded in her memory that once I raised the profit, so I sent him he won me. And so we did it
again. And then sorry, and then I want him and then he did it again. And then he won me. And then he
said, this makes up for my loss of last of last time. This small anecdote, it shows us the window
that I should have the allow her and she she she takes that moment as precious as something so
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:59
			beautiful. She remembers a decades later, and she then narrates it to her students. Now in our times
that Hamdulillah we can spend more than just half an hour on a race and it's a very beautiful
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:40
			Hadith as well, by the way, which is very fascinating. Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam said
hadith is an unnecessary he said, anything that does not have the vicar of Allah the remembrance of
Allah shall be considered a waste of time, except for for at least as long as I've just mentioned
the one phrase we're interested in, except for four things, even if you don't do the Quran, Quran
and Tila and do an arriba. That is an investment, what one of them he said, What will Alberto
Rajamouli Allah Who and the man playing with his family with his wife playing in every sense of the
term, there is the conjugal connotation, no question about that the intimate connotation is here,
		
00:25:40 --> 00:26:17
			but it's also more than that, our promises and I'm played with our issue in the sand running,
racing, this is play, this is spending time. Notice everything that you do, that doesn't have the
vicar of Allah, it's going to be a waste of time. He didn't say it's how long you're gonna go to
*, he says a waste of time, no benefit. But there are four things he mentioned. The other three
are related to horse riding and archery and others four things he mentioned. He said, even if you
don't do the kicker, even if you don't remember Allah subhanho wa taala, that is good. It's
positive. It's nothing wrong with that. And one of them was a man and a woman, a husband and wife
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:57
			spending time together, playing together laughing together, enjoying together, the Shetty app wants
you to invest time and money on your family, in your marriage on your spouse. And in our times that
we live in the equivalent would be we go on a vacation, or we spend some alone time we cut off from
our daily routine, like our Prophet sallallahu I sent him did and we do something just the two of us
together to bring back the romance to spend that attention, whatever is possible according to your
budget, and according to your time, whatever is possible for our profit system, it was simply a race
outside of Medina, and that our mother, I should remember for many of us, it could be a weekend
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:36
			retreat somewhere or even a trip overseas or whatever it might be. But the quality time is so
important. And this is on a weekly or yearly basis. On top of this, what is our mother Aisha say?
She says that our prophets are some that at night when it was after slaughter, Alicia, she would say
that the Prophet system would speak to her until late in the night that he would yes Maria and he
speak until late in the night. You know that privacy that intimacy nobody else is around. And that
connection has to be there between the couple. And this quality time it brings the marriage and it's
helped saves the love and the romance. The show the hour wants you to invest time and money in that
		
00:27:36 --> 00:28:16
			relationship because in saving the marriage you save yourself and your children and you save all of
society and the final piece of advice so that was Advice number four, the final and fifth advice
which is one of the most simplest and yet it is also Quranic you will not accomplish anything
without Allah's color and will and you will not get Allah's color and will without making dua to
Allah and following the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah. And therefore one of the Quran ik Diaz is
the dua of having a good marriage and a good spouse. There are multiple hours, but the one that I
want to put in everybody's mind is in the end of Surah Furqan that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala says
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:26
			Robina habla Ana min as wodgina with reality now Kurata Aryan that Oh our Lord, we want you to bless
us, from our spouses,
		
00:28:27 --> 00:29:08
			from our spouses and our children, that which will comfort our eyes. So Allah is asking you to make
dua to have a good husband a good wife, Allah is asking you put it in your daily routine, or have
been a habit Lana mean as wodgina with urea, Tina Kurata Are you and you're constantly making dua
that you want to spouse that is going to be a comfort to your eyes, a coolness of your heart, when
you make dua to Allah, you are prioritizing your family. You're asking Allah for a good family. And
along with this, of course, anytime you want something from Allah, you must follow the Sharia of
Allah. So learn the Sunnah of being a husband and wife learn the dab of all of the acts that are
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:35
			related to marriage and follow those sunnah and to get the baraka of Allah subhanahu wata either
these are five simple pieces of advice that if we follow them insha Allah Who to other it will open
up the doors of a better marriage we ask Allah Subhana Allah to Allah to bless all of us in our
marriage and may Allah azza wa jal bless me and you with and through the Quran, and may make us of
those who is versus they understand and applies halal and haram throughout our lifespan as scholars
forgiveness, you as well ask him for his the before and the Rahman.
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:59
			Al Hamdulillah all praises due to Allah, the One and the unique. It is He alone that we worship, and
it is His blessings that we seek. He is the Lord of the oppressed, and he answered the drop of the
week. Dear Muslims
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:46
			If the marriage has issues that cannot be solved between husband and wife, I gave you five steps
between husband and wife. But sometimes it goes beyond this. Sometimes the husband and wife cannot
have their own accord solve the marriage, and it becomes something that other people are aware of.
We have to realize that a marital issue that goes public is not something that we need to be ashamed
about. Just because your marriage or my marriage has problems, it's not something we have to cover
up. On the contrary, sometimes getting help from family and friends, sometimes expressing your
frustration to those who love you and care about you will actually solve the marriage. And this is
		
00:30:46 --> 00:31:20
			even in the life of the prophets of Allah, who are they he was sitting, we're all aware of that
incident where for one month, there was some tension for one month, there was some tension, and I've
gone over it in my Sierra lectures. And by the way, that's a very interesting story in and of
itself. husbands need to understand this is not we don't have time for the full story, but our
mothers, they're human beings. And when the wealth of our profits has increased, I should say, when
the access to wealth increased, he himself lived a simple lifestyle from the day he was born till
the day he died. He himself lived a very modest lifestyle. But in later Medina, he had access to
		
00:31:20 --> 00:32:02
			large amounts of wealth. Our mothers are human beings. And they began asking a higher standard of
living. There was nothing wrong with that request. Brothers listen to this, there was nothing wrong
with that request, and had our prophets hasn't been anybody else. He would have given it to them.
But you see, our Prophet system cannot live like a king. He cannot live like a wealthy person. He is
Rasul Allah. He is a role model in every aspect for him to live like that would not have been
appropriate. And so when those requests and demands increased, our profit system, withdrew for a
month because he could not give them that lifestyle because he did not want to live that life. Not
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:42
			that he didn't have the money. Had it been anybody else. That would not have been a problem, but he
is Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, then Allah revealed in the Quran. Yeah, Nisa Nibi are wives
of the Prophet. If you want this dunya come, I shall give you as much as you want, and then let you
go on your way. But if you want Allah and His Messenger, then they shall be your lifestyle. You can
read the verses. See what Eliza? What is the beautiful point here? Our mothers were not sinful for
making a legitimate request. Allah did not say it's evil. Allah did not say is haram and how dare
you, they have a legitimate request. We want to live more comfortable lives. And the Prophet saw
		
00:32:42 --> 00:33:22
			some himself could not fulfill it, because his lifestyle was not like mine and yours, we can live
that way he cannot live that way. But still, Allah said to our mothers, if you want, get as much as
you want, but then we cannot be husband, wife in this in this world. And every one of them chose the
Prophet system and a simple lifestyle. They prefer the love of Allah, and they prefer the love of
the messenger over the love of the dunya. And that's why they are our mothers. The point being that
incident went public, all of Medina was talking about it. Abu Bakar got involved with it. Sure Omar
got involved would have settled the Allahu Anhu. And if a marital dispute had been awkward and
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:59
			embarrassing, our profit system would not have it wouldn't have been public news, sometimes for it
to go public. By public. I mean your family and friends you obviously no need to put it on the
social media but family and friends sometimes for other people to know it is healthy and helpful.
And this is what the Quran itself alludes to. The Quran alludes to this how and when Allah says that
if the situation gets tense and divorce is on the horizon, Allah says before you get to divorce,
Roberto had come in early he will come in earlier. You get to arbitrators, one from her family, one
from his family, her friends, his friends, one who knows her better knows her before the marriage,
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:37
			her his interest is more with the woman and the other. His interest is more with the man that he has
sympathies for with demand from before but the both of them want the marriage to succeed. Then Allah
says get them together and have them arbitrate. Allah is saying bring in family and friends, bring
in cousins and relatives bring in people who care about you and get their advice. There is nothing
embarrassing if your marriage is not in the way that it should be to get help from close family from
friends from those who care about you forget embarrassing, this is the Quranic command. And if you
want a marriage to be saved, you will follow this Quranic commandment. And Allah says in the Quran,
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:59
			if they want reconciliation, if they want the marriage to succeed, then you affect Allah Who by
whom, ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala will bring about reconciliation between them. And then the final point
and this is a whole different whole, the whole issue of divorce brothers and sisters, it deserves
much more than just one quick illusion. But divorce is like the emergency exit.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:37
			on the airplane, you know what's there, but you never want to use it. You know the procedure and
everybody should learn the procedure and know it. Everybody should know it. But it's not something
you constantly think about when you step on the plane nobody's thinking about all the time the exit
and the emergency exit and the oxygen nobody you don't want to think like that. If you're thinking
like this all the time, you're headed for disaster. That's not the way a marriage works. Yes, there
is an exit. Yes, it is a halal exit, but that has an exit is only used in case of absolute
necessity. And if one needs to use it, one follows the proper procedure as is found in the books of
		
00:35:37 --> 00:36:16
			filth and in the Diocese of the Quran. One of them being you do not jump to divorce until you have
arbitration. Divorce is never done instantaneously. Divorce is never done in the spur of the moment.
It's never done in the state of anger. All of this is wrong divorces done with more planning than
the marriage you should plan a divorce even more if it needs to happen, then you plan the marriage
and one of the plannings is that after the two arbitrators have come together and they both say you
know what this marriage is beyond repair. Sometimes it happens it is the case. Then when both
arbitrators say then in that case, you should think and contemplate divorce and it is there at the
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:55
			very end of the plane you keep it it's not something constantly brought up. No marriage will
succeed. If divorce is on the table. Every time an argument comes up, and especially husbands It is
not befitting that you constantly bring up this card of divorce. How can a marriage succeed when you
threatening to end the marriage for the most trivial of reasons, follow the Quranic guidelines,
follow the Sunnah guidelines and realize that with this we conclude a successful marriage is
beneficial for you and your spouse. We have to swallow our egos. We have to swallow our egos for the
sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala a successful marriage is better for you and your spouse and for
		
00:36:55 --> 00:37:34
			children and for society. And Allah subhanho wa Taala has revealed the Sharia in order that our
marriages flourish so turn to Allah follow the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah and actively work on
bettering your marriages. If both of you want the marriage to succeed, Allah has guaranteed that it
will succeed May Allah subhana wa Tada make us of those whose marriages flourish Allah home and
