Bury Hurtful Words Sometimes But Why | Ustadh Asim Khan

This one is about family and family matters and sacrifices that you need to make sometimes in order to keep your family together.

‘They said, “If he steals – a brother of his has stolen before.” But Joseph kept it within himself and did not reveal it to them. He said, “You are worse in position, and Allah is most knowing of what you describe.”’

Quran:12:77

Sometimes you need to tolerate people’s misbehavior for a bigger cause. You need to recognize that you are part of a bigger picture. You as a Muslim, are part of a bigger picture.

What you do affects other people and reflects on your family reflects on your community, reflects on the ummah itself. The consequence of knowing that is sometimes you got to take a hit yourself.

Sometimes your family will be mean, cruel to you. And if you react to try and get your right, you may be the cause of breaking up the whole family.

We’re saying that sometimes you may need to accept some wrong in your life. Not because you’re a doormat, because you’re a person who has a vision.
