How Much Divorce Are You Seeing? | Signs of the Hour Ep. 22
The Prophet ﷺ said there is no sin more deserving of punishment in this world, on top of what awaits in the next, than oppression and cutting off family ties. Most sins can be expiated by worldly hardship. These two are punished in both. Dr. Omar Suleiman reads that as the reason a broken family counts among the signs of the Hour: it does not stay private, and its cost shows up as a lost blessing in health, wealth and every other relationship.
In this episode, Dr. Omar Suleiman separates setting boundaries with someone harmful, which Islam allows, from treating every family discomfort as abuse, which it does not. He goes through the hadith of the man whose relatives kept wronging him, Ibn Mas‘ud’s answer when a storm in Kufa made people think the Hour had come, siblings fighting over an inheritance, signatures used to steal, and why the first thing the devils teach is how to separate a husband and wife. The episode closes on what Madinah was built on.
