In this short reminder by #MuftiMenk mentions how importance of one’s #biological#Identity in Islam. Allah chose one’s parents whether he / she likes or not as a test for him /her. One will be called with his/ her father’s name on the day of #Qiyamah. So hiding #lineage is actually a major sin intentionally in Islam.
As #Quran says: “Call them after their fathers. That is most just in the sight of Allah. If you know not their fathers, then call them your brothers in faith and your patrons. There is no blame on you if you make a mistake but you are accountable for what is done intentionally. Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.” [Qur’an 33:5]
#MuftiMenk highlights the difficulties which are being faced to lead a successful conjugal life in Muslim households now-a-days and how to overcome these obstacles in the light of the #Quran And #Sunnah in this lecture.

Mufti Menk emphasises on “Never ever Leave Today’s Work for tomorrow”.
#MuftiMenk highlights three aspects of relationship of a family. One is the parent parent relation, the other is the parent-child relation and the third is the child child relation and how to improve among these relationships in this lecture.
Mufti Menk mentions that we have guidelines in Islam so much that is mentioned about how a person should be living. Every aspect of my life and your lives is covered in Islam and we are taught that a strong relation between the spouses will result in a positive upbringing of the children. He urges to marry someone decent to lead an exemplary life which helps to upbringings of children becomes easy. In addition, he says children should be treated equal and favouritism of one child is a very big crime totally prohibited completely Haram many people are guilty of it in #Islam.
#MuftiMenk highlights that A believe #woman has focused upon the #pleasure of Allah subhanahu wata’ala .She is focused upon the #goal that she has which is to earn Jannah; to earn #paradise. #She knows that this #life is absolutely temporary and our ultimate retun is to Allah (swt). So this focus upon paradise and upon the pleasure of Allah is what makes us primarily different from the others who are focused upon worldly material items in this lecture.
Mufti Menk quotes “What make her different; she knows that a sacrifice is required of me to serve, to serve who; to serve the cause that Allah has instructed me to serve; she is not enslaved by the adverse environment around her; she is not enslaved by brand names & by #trends because she is original that’s what makes her different.”
#MuftiMenk highlights that It is very important is to support your #spouse to stand by your spouse to be fair and just when it comes to your relation with #wife & #Mother in this video clip.
#BilalAssad points out that sister, take it easy on your husband and lessen the burden of him; try to tolerate as much as you can from the misbehaviour mistreatment of your in-laws. If you do that wallahi 90% of the time your husband will only grow to love you more. He will love you more because you are helping him; if he loves you more he will serve you better and he will protect you from them more. Bilal Assad mentioned above the quote in response to a sister’s question.
#NoumanAlikhan mentions that sisters you’re stuck with your husband; stop being angry accept it and try to love your husband try to make your #husband happy because believe me if he gets even a little bit happy you will be really happy. Then, Nouman Ali khan advises #husbands to appreciate and to say good words to their wivies for making a good family which will raise their status on the day of Judgement.
In the lecture #MuftiMenk addresses that our beloved prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam has the greatest level of #character and #conduct and his behaviour is not just exemplary but it is absolutely perfect with Englsihs subtitle. In the light of that, Mufti Menk adds respect of a #woman to fulfil her rights, to honour her is not based on our whims and fancies it’s based on what Allah and His Messenger have declared belongs to her.
“Am I upon the sunnah of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam when it comes to addressing women? Do I think before I speak to them that I am about to utter words; these words are they harmful hurtful or are they the best of words? Allah has given us a tongue and He has given us a brain. We need to use the brain before we use the tongue.”- Mufti Menk
#MuftiMenk mentions that when you say I love you to someone you are reconfirming the rights that they have over you and the fact that you will fulfil them in order to please Allah (swt). So, I love you; I love you too that’s not the answer of I love you not necessarily, it depends who is saying it when they are saying it why they are saying it how they are saying it. This is why those who really love one another they stick with one another even through difficult days they are a pillar of support in this lecture. Mufti Menk adds that #love is about #sacrifice when you say I love you to someone in essence, you are actually telling them I care for you to the degree that I will fulfil all your rights and I will look after you through thick and thin. May Allah (swt) grant us #happy homes.
Mufti Menk Quotes “Love is tested at the time of sacrifice when the person you claim to love is now going through the most difficult times of their lives; do you still stand by them, do you still look at their tears and wipe them off and say I love you that is far more genuine?”
In this video clip #MuftiMenk urges to watch one’s #tongue very #careful when he addresses his wife and fulfils her rights and appreciate her sacrifice what she goes through for him. Bad mouthing to one’s #wife is prohibited and not fulfilling her rights could be equivalent to divorce in Islam.
Mufti Menk Quotes “You cannot equate your wife with someone who’s a Muharram. You cannot do that with the intention of insulting her and telling her that I’m no longer going to fulfil your rights & your duties. Save ourselves from insulting our wives. They have given birth; they have borne our children we need to respect and honour the changes that may have taken place in their bodies as a result of it.”
