We commence by praising Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sending blessings and salutations upon the masterpiece Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa salam

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless his entire household and all his companions may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless all the messengers that he has sent from the beginning of time right to the end where Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa salam was sent

And may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless us all and make us from amongst those who can learn, put into practice and convey this deen in a way that it can get to our children and offspring up to the day of piyama

Beloved brothers and sisters in Islam

We were looking at the life of Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa salam we had got to a point where he had taken part in what was known as Hilful Fudul or the pledge where they had to or they pledged to assist those who were oppressed against the oppressor

And we also got to the point where he had travelled to Assam once again to the Syrian region as we call it today and as I explained it includes not only the country of Syria but the entire region where Lebanon, Palestine and parts of northern Arabia are included

So the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa salam, it was noticed by Maisara who was the slave of Khadija Bintiqawai Lidradi Allahu anha that the cloud was covering him was shading him throughout the journey this was something amazing

Not only was the tree or had the tree turned earlier in his life but the later journey to that region there was always a cloud that covered him and no one besides him Subhanallah

So when Maisara had come back to Khadija Bintiqawai Lidradi Allahu anha and she had and she was told about what had happened

She knew within herself that this man something great something very big about him he is about to be a leader or there is something grand about him and this was also one of the reasons over and above the character and conduct and honesty and so on that we had heard about yesterday that made her propose for the marriage to him

May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala grant us spouses who will be the coolness of our eyes and may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala make it easy for all those who are not married to be married to those who will be the coolness of their eyes

Remember marriage is a very big sacrifice people don't realize and understand some people think it's a perpetual honeymoon we have a problem with today's generations where the young girls are looking for men who are already wealthy who have everything in life

And all they need to do is now fit on the man's arm and walk to the mall that's what some people think

But they don't realize those who have had humble beginnings where they have struggled for several years sometimes decades and then come up on their two feet

Sometimes those marriages are much more blessed than hunting for the wealthiest of all may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala grant us goodness

The reason I make mention of this look at the choice of Khadija, Radya Allahu anha, she chose a man orphaned

She chose a man who basically had nothing besides honesty, dignity and that high lofty level of character and conduct Subhanallah

And yet he had never taken part in anything that would have put a mark on his reputation or put a negative mark on his reputation

We have another very very important incident that occurred when the Prophet Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam was 35 years old, 10 years into his marriage

We had made mention yesterday of his children and how he lost his sons and that his daughters had actually lived and they had seen the day when he was granted Prophethood and so on

But an incident where Kouresh found that the Kaaba, which is the center of the earth according to us, the Kaaba in Makkah to Mukarrama
