Jihad for the GOOD
Bismillaharrahmanarrahim
All praise is due to Allah (swt). May peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad (saw), his family and companions.Salamu aleykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh
The media, the culture, the environment, have led people to mislead and be led astray, leading to mortal sins. We
find that what is wrong is surrounded by as many ants as they surround
sweets thrown to the ground, and what is correct is flattened,
distracted subjugated, similar to "unhygienic" runs from water. And so we see that the reactions are devastating for society, for each living, so that insecurity feeds evil and evil. And insecurity sets in.But security is only Confidence in Allah (swt) and good practices from true sincere self-transformation (jihad)
How to sell internal jihad?. It
is up to us to seek the teachings granted by Our Allah (swt) to
understand some points, and thus we can teach future generations,
through our reflective acts, cleanness, continuous self-correction,
without fear of good practices, and with greater pacification and submission to Allah (swt).
> A tradition of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) states: "Be
careful to inform him of the greatest of mortal sins: 1) Associate
anything with Allah (swt) (shirkh), 2) Lie!"
A similar tradition was quoted from Imam Hasan al-Askari (as) also:
"All evils were blocked in one room and its key is lie and liar (one who
tries to deceive others)."
Let's understand a bit more:
1- Shirkh. To commit shirk, is to speak without true knowledge (ilm), attributed
undue information nonexistent, which instead of "showing the correct
way, does it misleading others."He" says that it involves and includes:
1.1. falsely attribute something to Allah (swt)
1.2. modify or change the religion of Allah (swt)
1.3. what He has confirmed or
1.4. confirm what He denied
1.5. something that has been declared false or
1.6. declare something that is false as true and this also includes
1.7. support something that Allah (swt) does not like or opposes and
1.8. to like something that Allah (swt) does not like.
1.9
In other words, when we talk about religion without 'ilm, about things
related to religion, then, in fact, we are modifying the religion of
Allah (swt). And indeed, if we proceed with what he wrote, we shall see that, in
fact, speaking without 'ilm is the true source of all kufr and shirk.
2- Viceness of language (and soul): gossip, intrigue, maledience, slander, defamation: Speaking evil of others
2.1:
To the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked: "Can a believer
be a coward (Coward in the sense of fearing to go to war, battles, does
not mean the card that practices evil, speaks in the back etc)?" The Prophet said, "Yes." He was then asked, "Can a believer be a miser?" He answered, "Yes." And finally he was asked, 'Can a believer be a liar?' The Prophet said, 'No.' - Al-Muwatta, Volume 56, Hadith 19. Lies,
gossip, intrigue, slander, are "Great sins," are in fact the cause of
all misery, evil and suffering in this world and in the Hereafter. And the worst of all sins are those that are greater in harm and danger. Among the main destructive sins are slander and defamation. These
two sins were forbidden by God through His Prophet because they sow the
enmity of evil and discord among people and lead to destruction. They make their aggressor regret when repentance will be of no avail. They cause hostilities between people in the same household and between neighbors and relatives. They can diminish in good deeds and increase in evil and lead to dishonor and dishonor.
. Anyone who is acting cowardly, harms others in this life, but is damaging the simesis in this life and in the other. There is no small or big lie. Lie is a lie.. Whoever lies for sure is hiding a mistake, a defect of yours through
the lie, is open the suits of Sheythan (may Allah swt take refuge from
it), and the lie becomes vice.
2.2 Only Allah (swt) is the All Knowing (All Knowing). (2: 158) (3:92) (24:41) (33:40) Allah swt is Knower and SaviorOnly Allah (swt) is Knower of the unknowable. Only
Allah (swt) knows well the intimacy of hearts: 'Allah swt is Knower of
the mystery of the heavens and the earth, because he knows the
intimacies of the hearts well.' "(35:38). Who knows what Allah (swt) wrote in the book of the life of himself? So how to talk about the life of another?
. Only Allah (swt) is the Judge. Therefore a human can not judge the actions of another, without passing through sieves and know that he will be punished!
Whoever did not commit sins, mistakes and will still commit them: Only Allah (swt) knows. But we know that all humans commit it. In this way, how can stone throw on the roof of others that has a cracked roof? To hide your own crack and make others not look at your own roof by targeting the other's?On
the contrary, we must do the inner jihad to improve ourselves,
constantly without pre-judging attitudes of others, aware that each one
is a creature of Allah (swt) and has his characteristics granted by
Allah (swt): way of speaking, act, process, learn, teach. You are being "tested" by passing tests according to your knowledge. So do not judge!
. Who knows which human is dearer to Allah (swt) than Allah (swt) himself?
. We have so much to learn and we will die knowing little!
2.3
Anas narrated that the Messenger of God said, "When I was ascended into
heaven, I passed by a people that had copper nails with which they
scratched their faces and chests, and I said, 'O Jibreel, who are these?
He said, "These are the ones who used to eat other people's flesh and
attack their honor." (Abu Dawood) The Prophet (SAW) said: "The gossiper
will not enter Paradise."
. So do not treat the issue of slander, slander and gossip with indifference, because it is a great sin. Allah says, "You considered a small thing, whereas with Allah it was very great." (An-Noor 24:15)
> Lie, gossip, slander and slander are shame and disgrace. Its author is detested and he will not have a noble death. Allah swt forbids such acts in his book, when he says:
"O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, in acts some suspicions are sins. And
to spy (the life of others, to listen to conversations of the others,
to speculate about the others) neither to gossip, to speak with
maledienia on the other. Does one of you like to eat the flesh of your dead brother? You would hate him (so hate the gossip, the slander, the useless conversations). Fear Allah, verily, Allah is the one who accepts repentance, Most Merciful "(Al-Hujuraat 49: 12)
"Fear God and obey Him. Be afraid of the day when you should be brought back to God. Then each person will have to be paid what he has earned; and they should not be treated unjustly "(Al-Baqarah 2: 281)
Those
who indulge in slander, gossip, intrigues, jealousy, are believing that
they are hiding their own imperfections by harming others. They forget the fact that they are only harming themselves. This
is because the slander is slandered from the transgressor is written in
the book of his life in relation to his victim and on the Day of
Resurrection both the transgressor and the wronged will stand before God
who is the Just Judge and the wronged will go appeal
to God to avenge the wrong done to him, Allah (swt), then, grants that
person wronged of the good works of the person who offended him
(according to his error for having gossiped, caused intrigue / malaise,
slandering his brother ). This
day is the day of judgment, the day that no father will give his son
any of his good deeds, nor a friend to his friend, and there will be no
other opportunity to correct. All that will be able to say: 'I, myself. '
> Aboo Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:Do you know what the curse is? They said: Allah (swt) and His Messenger (S) know best. He then said: it is saying something about his brother that he did not like. Someone asked him, but what if what I say is true? The
Messenger of Allah (swt) said: If what you say about him is true, you
are mistreating him (you are sinning), but if it is not true, you have
slandered him. (Muslim).
The
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Usury has seventy types something, the
least of which is for a man to have sex with his mother and the greatest
act of usury is for a Muslim to attack the honor of his Muslim
brother." he also said: "Whoever
protects the honor of his brother, God will protect him from Hell on the
Day of Resurrection." (At-Tirmidhi)
