00:00If you take a look at the books of history and the scriptures,
00:03the Old Testament, the Quran, whatever else it may be,
00:06you will find that there was a period of time of hardship
00:09after which the ease came.
00:11Take a look at the story of the Prophet Joseph,
00:13may peace be upon him.
00:15They had hardship, they had drought.
00:16Did it last forever and ever?
00:18How many years did it last?
00:20Tell me.
00:23Someone said seven years, didn't they? Correct.
00:27You deserve a medal, my sister.
00:28I think I heard seven years.
00:29Did someone say seven years at the back?
00:32MashaAllah, you deserve another medal.
00:34The only person interacting here, man.
00:41And after that, Allah gave them ease.
00:43So Allah does not keep you down all the time.
00:45Don't lose hope.
00:46While you're down, just bear it.
00:49You will be down for a while.
00:50I promise you, in a year, two years, three years, five years,
00:53seven years, you know what will happen?
00:55Within those years, your life will change to the degree
00:58that you will look back and say,
01:00whew, I was about to give up at one stage.
01:03I know of business people, people who are unwell,
01:05people who are going through medical problems.
01:08You know, family matters.
01:10Sometimes you're going through a divorce,
01:11and you know what?
01:12You went through it once, it was so painful.
01:14You desperately do not want to go through it again,
01:16but unfortunately, it's coming.
01:18Let it happen, let it be, no problem.
01:20Divorce is never the end of the world.
01:23It might just be the beginning of your life.
01:25I went through a divorce myself many, many years back.
01:28In fact, when the brother earlier was saying,
01:30I've been listening to Mufti Menk for about 15 years.
01:33Did you hear him say that?
01:36The first time I actually said, gosh, I'm old, man.
01:39MashaAllah, it's true.
01:41It's very true, brother.
01:42I kicked off in 1999.
01:44That's 21 years ago.
01:46Subhanallah, my kids are in their 20s.
01:49Some of them are married.
01:51You wouldn't even believe that.
01:53And I'm not lying, by the way, okay?
01:57So subhanallah, it's amazing.
01:59My brothers and sisters,
02:00how there will come a time when ease will come through.
02:03You go through a divorce.
02:05You're not the first person.
02:06You'll never be the last one.
02:07It may not be your first divorce.
02:10You might go through it again and again.
02:12And who knows, the fourth person you're going to get to
02:16through marriage is going to be,
02:18wow, the king of your dreams.
02:21Subhanallah, it can happen.
02:25And then you can let the other three know that,
02:26by the way, anyway, you don't need to do that, okay?
02:30But man is such that when we're going through the issue,
02:33it's the end of the world.
02:34It's not.
02:35Just ride this for now.
02:37You know, the waves are coming in.
02:38Just ride the wave for now.
02:40And you lay low for a little while.
02:42Thank Allah.
02:43Develop your relationship with Allah.
02:44A day will come when you will have the last laugh.
02:48And always as they say,
02:50he who laughs last, laughs the best.
02:54You have the best laugh.
02:56That's a good concept.
02:57It's true.
02:59It's actually true.
