to speak about this in public. And that is to send number one ad-A'ah for my wife

0:35.7

that may Allah SWT bless you and may Allah SWT reward you for all the support that you

the life of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi sallam and he was never ashamed to publicly

0:54.4

Masha'iz his wives and publicly send those messages of love and compassion even after the
