00:00:00.140 --> 00:00:02.500
Allah the Exalted says:

00:00:02.500 --> 00:00:24.789
“And who say: Our Lord! Vouchsafe us comfort of our wives and of our offspring, and make us patterns for (all) those who ward off (evil).” (25:74)

00:00:24.789 --> 00:00:28.789
A man asked al-Hasan al-Basri about this verse:

00:00:29.109 --> 00:00:36.310
“And who say: Our Lord! Vouchsafe us comfort of our wives and of our offspring, and make us patterns for (all) those who ward off (evil).” (25:74)

00:00:36.310 --> 00:00:40.789
"Is this 'coolness of the eyes' in this world or in the Hereafter?"

00:00:40.789 --> 00:00:44.350
He replied, "Rather, it is in this world."

00:00:44.350 --> 00:00:48.850
"By Allah, it is for the servant to see obedience to Allah in his children."

00:00:48.850 --> 00:00:52.350
"And there is nothing more cooling to the eye of the believer,"

00:00:52.350 --> 00:00:55.850
"than to see his loved one in obedience to Allah."
