In this short clip from Surah Al-Ahzab, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan explores one of the most emotionally intense tests the Prophet ﷺ ever faced, his marriage to Zainab (33:38–39). Allah commanded what was lawful, but the Prophet was torn by the fear of what people would say and the emotions of those closest to him.

Yet this moment wasn’t just personal, it was public legislation. It set a legal precedent. And in this moment, Allah reminded His Messenger: You cannot let fear of people stand in the way of what I have made lawful.

It’s a powerful reflection on what it means to lead, to uphold divine law and to put Allah’s word above even the deepest emotional bonds.
