Take look at those who thought they want to get “sakeena” 101 00:06:26,712 --> 00:06:30,312 comfort, love, by applying FTLC false tender love and care in their life 102 00:06:33,710 --> 00:06:35,760 for example, the man who took his wife to 103 00:06:38,710 --> 00:06:42,710 a house of “shayateen”, where a belle’ dancer is really busy in dancing and he’s 104 00:06:43,491 --> 00:06:45,191 having dinner with his Muslim wife 105 00:06:46,973 --> 00:06:48,533 what happens, 106 00:06:49,377 --> 00:06:53,727 at end of the evening, at home, did she tell him I feel so good after a satanic evening 107 00:06:54,477 --> 00:06:58,127 I’d like to read Bukhari, I feel so good, I want to make Tahajjud.

Because we take the command of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'Ala and we threw it behind our back 114 00:07:21,718 --> 00:07:23,768 Not to follow the footsteps of “shaitaan” 115 00:07:24,352 --> 00:07:26,652 And much more.
