Assalamualaikum I escaped domestic violence and alot of Muslims ask me," What did you do to make him that way?" The Muslim community needs education to stop blaming the victims.

I grew up in similar circumstances I definitely have PTSD witnessing my mum being beaten up…I was also abandoned by my mum living between different extended family and then had to live with my dad that was abusive and i strongly believe now has a personality disorder…for a long time I pushed the memories away especially during my 20s but once I hit 30 and trying to raise my own family a switch flipped and I became flooded with memories of the past…maybe it was because seeing my kids grow up it just triggered me…thinking how you could put your children through so much horror…I feel there’s not much I can do about the flashbacks and paralysing pain but Dua and Dhikr really helps only Allah can ease our pain alhamdulilah…may Allah ease the way for you brother

So true about leaving abusive relationship and never regretting.... I never ever once thought about him. Yusha Evans you are so right

[@Beauuxbaton]

You have been my favorite speaker for many years. The reason being you are very relatable and have a way to connect with us. These recent series have resonated with me so much, I’m sure everyone is touched by them along with myself. But man, when you say “I love you for the sake of Allah” at the end I really have to fight the tears back. The feeling of brotherhood and not being alone is so important.

[@saymatattooremovalchannel9264]

After growing up and seeing domestic violence between my parents and see them go through divorce, really broke me as a child. I remember my dad grooming us to tell us what to say to our teachers if they asked why my mum had black eyes or broken fingers… Now that I’m in my 30s and divorced myself. I too, experienced it through my ex husband. I can’t help but think if it was something to do with me growing up around it, like did I just accept the toxic violence because my mum stayed for so long? It’s been about 4 years now since I’ve been on my own. I get so scared now to open myself to something new! - very informative videos! I’m watching all the way from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 :) May Allah always protect you and guide you

[@teemadarif8243]

Subhana'Allah , yes sister . Seems that is exactly what we do in a sense . Because it's all we took in as young girls , therefore energy wise that is what we attracted or sought after subconsciously. May Allah ta ala grant us Healing Ameen

😭 Aslamalaikum I was in an abusive relationship for 14 years. I thought I had to stay for my kids. But I wished I left earlier, they are still having therapy though. I was told I provoked him too. And 10 years later his family have given me no support whatsoever as if it was all my fault. But it was the best step I took. Jazakhallakhrn brother for the podcast and for being there for us😭

[@couronneehair9935]

the domestic violence over generations in your family is what my mom would call a generational curse......and thanks be to God Yusha, you have broken that cycle for your own children and all your future generations so that they will never know that kind of abuse and trauma.

[@AmenaMohamad-c5h]

Thank you for making it through.

[@Tawheed_101]

My mother died when she was 18 and I was 11 months old. My grandmother used to say that my father who was 25 would beat her on every single issue big or small and at that time she already had me. So the violence started right after the marriage. Again he got married when he was 30 or 32 and my suffering began for a long time until I got married. May ALLAH give these abusers what they deserve in this world and in the Aakhirah. Yusha, you will always be in my prayers. I pray for both of us and all the women who still suffers this.

[@TheAnonYmouse]

I had this really mean and hateful principal who was probably a sadist when I was a young one. As a kid I was very sensitive and wouldn't speak out a lot, and would cry easily, she always wrote incident reports about me for literally no reason, then my parents would get really angry with me. Had this one incident during recess where this kid stole my beyblade, then I ran after him and the principle was outside, stopped him and took the beyblade, then she didn't give it back to me. She said your dad has to write a letter to me explaining why you should have it back. I knew my dad wouldn't do it so i wrote the letter myself in the best handwriting I could make. When I gave it to her she calle my dad and he took work off to come to the school, I was in deep trouble. She wrote a more serious incident report (what she described). In school they used to ring our classes through an old PA system, so they asked me to come to the office, and usually it was a bad sign, you'd get worms in your stomach. I get the the office and I see my dad sitting there with the principle, she talks a lot against me and says this letter is plagiarism, and my dad looks really angry with me, she just basks in this negative energy and conflict, then she gives the beyblade to my dad and says "Mr. ____________, you can throw the beyblade in the garbage if you want to", so he did. Sociopaths and psychopaths shouldn't be allowed in school systems. Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that adults need to be gentle and understanding with kids, and I could never imagine the implications of being neglected by parents and step parents, especially the way bro Yusha was, but you guys end up being #1 dads, masha'Allah. Parents, be role models for your kids and always be kind with your young ones, but don't hesitate to discipline your kids either when they need to be corrected.

Subhanallah this so hard to watch It reminds me of my childhood, now I’m 27 and It’s still hard. I remember when I would come home from school and my mom would be lying there in her own blood because my dad had beaten her so bad. I’ve never felt so weak and helpless in my life as I did in my childhood. It’s those memories that I wish to forget but rather it stays with you and breaks you as person.

[@asharmin100]

This is so heartbreaking. I pray to Allah you find your brother inshaAllah.

[@TheAnonYmouse]

Just finished this episode and I'm totally in agreeance with you. There's a dilemma though in Western societies, im trekking into controversial territory here. Men abusing and battering their wives is sickening, it's evil. On another note I knew a man being abused by his wife, one day she tried applying for welfare and when her husband got a call about it he told them they have enough money and that he works. She called the cops on him and said she was beaten and he was thrown in jail and lost his kids. She left her kids ipads, and leaves them alone in the apartment while she hangs out with her friends. The man's life was ruined, he can't even see his children, I went to court with him and they limit so much of his freedom, they won't believe him telling the truth. This society works to break up families to create more problems for the people, the harmony Allah put for both spouses is being compromised heavily here as liberal values take over. I pray for the tranquility in all your marriages, and please keep me in your duas that I find a wife who will be there for me and that I would be there for her.

[@YushaEvans]

Absolutely it is a two way street and even though there is very little proper help for women in these situations there is even smaller if any help for men in these circumstances and many times they end up exactly as you have said and this is part of why they won’t speak up. Much change needs to happen to protect all

Brother it is universal. Too many brothers and sisters grew up with this coznant dissonance , having to come up in cultures where women have no voice. Those women were their mother's, sisters and sometimes daughters even being emotionally and physically abused. And they don't take advice from Islam either.

[@Worms_Pro]

May Allah bless your soul brother Yusha, it seems you have been through many hardships in life. If anybody is reading this in terms of domestic violence in marriages, and women attacking men - I have experienced it first hand, and if you don't call the police eventually they will, and you will get into trouble even if you are innocent. Walk away, walk away with dignity and be a man. Listen to this beautiful brother and his words of wisdom.

[@ThePeacePlant]

Honestly I take that as great advice, hopefully I never have to go through it but if I do and I don't leave her then I am definitely reporting if it gets to be a common serious thing, honestly thank you for this comment lol... But I probably wouldn't end up with a girl like that anyway, but hopefully I don't have one that snaps and start playing games when I am too deep into the relationship, if so I'll make sure to report it

[@Worms_Pro]

Thank you brother for sharing. I'm sorry to hear about your family. I was exposed to domestic violence too and sexual abuse as a kid, I saw my mother's bf knock her front teeth out, the same one that sexually abused me and physically abused my baby brother. It really impacted my parenting and still does and my marriage. My mom calls me too on my bd and my kids bd - she calls it "your special day." she is old and unwell and although I dont celebrate Christmas anymore, I do like to keep her company if she doesn't have anywhere to go because I know she gets lonely on christmas and new year day. May Allah heal all the Muslims suffering from abuse and may Allah bring those in humanity who are strong and who are suffering to Islam. Ameen. I cant stop crying right now for the last 1/2 hour lol.

I am a man and a muslim and I have been beaten in domestic way but I found out that I have ADHD 2020, my ADHD makes me procrastinate a word lol that I started to learn and understand, it really means that you say you are going to do something and you drag out on the time to do it so it's a big problem and headache for me, because it also means that important things are not prioritised because of less Dopamine in the brain, unfortunately 80 % of those who have ADHD has at some stage of life had problem with drug, alcohol or tabletabuse even smoking cigarettes because it triggers the dopamine to increase in the brain, now I'm just waiting for my diagnosis so I can get my medicine inshaAllah, so I don't procrastinate anymore which is the worst part of the symptom, that you don't clean your house properly, that you don't take care of yourself properly, the second and third part that is also very negative is the lack of planning and focus, that you normally only catch 60 to 70 % of a conversation, and because of the procrastination you don't plan a trip very well i.e. you pack the wrong things in your bag, you plan your trip late etc. But of course all of this doesn't give the spouse the right to abuse you but at the same time I wouldn't like to be married to me if I where the spouse at least. not before, now I'm working with myself to try to make my shortcomings become less and less and inshaAllah with my medicine the symptoms should be minimal, both my parents had mental problems so I was lucky to grow up in a loving fosterfamilj but before I came to them I was abused with sleeping pills and I wasn't allowed to go out for half a year until my social service assistant found out about the abuse, at that time I was only 4 to 5 years old, reason for the abuse was that the father in the house was driving taxi in the nighttime and sleeping in the daytime, but alhamdulillah took me away from that family, I want like you to work in the Muslim community to support the Muslim families especially with Neuro psychological disfunction such as bipolar, ADHD, OCD Dyslexia etc, and other other mental issues as jinns, schizofrenia, and also addictions like gaming, alcohol, betting, Internet and sex which is now seen more frequently because of more knowledge but also because of more fitna and wiswas from Shaytan nastaino billahi, JazakAllahu Khayr habibi Ana hibbuka fillah, many of the things was emotional for me because I have had both abuse that I don't remember because of survival Iinstinct, and abuse that I strongly remember

Never put your hand on your woman because once u cross this line there is no going back. Keep this in your minds always. Therefore the best thing is to be patient. I know someone who got divorced, admitted he slapped his wife, this man is a rich guy and his wife got the house and his other properties. Never in his many years of marriage he had abused his wife or children before the last episode. This person is generally known to be a well behaved, intelligent and a happy person, has great relationship within the community. Slapping your woman has huge consequences in America, if the wife files a divorce, so don’t make that mistake

At age 3, his mother abandoned him to the grandmother. His mother was a victim of domestic violence. He was abused by his grandmother!?? His childhood was not normal.

[@denisemughrabi8171]

He wasn’t abused by the Grandmother or Grandfathet. He was abused by his stepmother, whom his dad married, after his parents divorced. He saw the grandparents on visits. I think he began living with the grandparents full time after he became older. Possibly around age 15? The grandfather passed, but he stayed with his grandmother until he went to prison. His grandmother died a year before he got released. Listen closely to what he’s saying.

Unfortunately her mother was the victim of domestic violence. She died at age 27, at a young age, unfortunately. Her mother was 17 when he was borne. She left him with grandfather. His mother was unfortunately victim of physical abuse a lot.

I've struggled to forgive my father for the way he treated me and my mom, compared to his sons. But I've come to understand that when children lose their parents young, a void opens. If that void isn't filled with love, then it can become a playground for the Djinn. These Djinn whisper in the child's ear through the years, promoting and pushing bad choices to fill what's mixing in the void. I think my father spent a lifetime trying to fill that void, albeit being manipulated by the Djinn. As a result, he hurt so many people. I now understand that there were a few times I saw my dad's true nature when the Djinn weren't whispering in his ears. He was playful, affectionate, and wise. I choose to remember him in this way, then to remember the Djinn that consumed him. May Allah forgive him & show him mercy.

This video has triggered me. I'm crying the whole time watching this. May Allah bless you. I'm stuck in a DV situation. My mother has forcefully married me to him. When I had a baby the DV got worse and I left with the help of my brother who lived in a different country but was the only one in my family who supported me. But my mom threatened me with her life to return to my husband. She emotionally abused me and made me feel worthless and filled me with negativity about my new life. It got very difficult to cope with my under 1 baby. I was finally pushed to return to my abusive spouse after he agreed to some conditions even though he made me seem extremely evil for having those conditions and made it seem like he is the one making a huge compromise with my stubborn habits. He continues to make me feel like terrible mom who is selfish just because I wanted to study (islam and secular studies to help me serve Islam). He is constantly demoralising me and breaking my confidence. But I have no way out. May Allah protect me and my child. He is good with his son but doesn't love me. We don't have a marriage just living together to coparent the baby in an unhealthy environment, where I'm becoming more and more codependent on him.

[@tanveer_ahmed]

Leave while you still can because the longer you stay with him, the more dependent you'll be on him and it will be harder to leave in the future. You also have to think about your child as well, because he will grow up seeing a loveless unnaffectionate marriage and that will negatively impact him when he grows up.

[@urwashahid9210]

@@tanveer_ahmed I left him but my mother didn't leave me and my baby alone and my own family made my life hell after leaving. Also I was consumed looking after a baby 24/7 with zero support and lost myself further. There was zero time for self-care. My baby was really unsettled. All this moving out, becoming homeless etc traumtized him too. My family and circumstances have put me back with him. Allah is the only one to protect us.

@@YushaEvans okay…by the way Allāh (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) says in the Qur’aan: An-Nisa' 4:86 وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُم بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّواْ بِأَحۡسَنَ مِنۡهَآ أَوۡ رُدُّوهَآۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ حَسِيبًا “When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or (at least) return it equally. Certainly, Allah is Ever a Careful Account Taker of all things.” That’s a command from Allāh (Azza Wa Jal). So it’s only proper that you return my greetings my dear brother, and may Allāh bless you.

Who else in your family became a Muslim because of your dawah?

[@denisemughrabi8171]

Why does that matter? “Allah guides whom he wills!”. We don’t control other people. The only one we can control is ourselves. We give them the message, but it’s up to them, because Allah gives us “Free Will!”. There is no compulsion in Islam.
