Responsibility


From Abu Sa'id's Hadith, may Allah be pleased with him.


I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) say: Whoever, among you, sees something abominable should rectify it with his hand; and if he can`t do it, then he should do it with his tongue; and if he can`t do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart, and that is the least of Faith.


Sahih Muslim

ALLAH sent his last and final Messenger, Muhammad (SAAW) as a "Mercy to all creation/existence" (see Quran 21:107) It is dissappointing to say the least that a man of such flawless character is being misunderstood by the world today. The very people to whom He was sent as ALLAH's (SWT) Greatest Mercy, have been misled by scnadle-mongerers into believing blatant lies about Him (SAAW) based on gross misquotations (both textual and contextual). It is for this purpose that I have decided to discuss in short various aspects of his sayings and practices that shed light on the personality of one who is indeed at the "most exalted standard of character" (Quran 68:4) May ALLAH (SWT)'s Greatest Mercy and Blessings be showered on the one who is Allah's Mercy to all existence! Ameen.


Below is a sahih hadith that contains a saying of the Messenger of ALLAH (SWT)


Narrated Abu Huraira (one of the companions of the Prophet (SAAW)):


Allah's Apostle said, <b>"Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should talk what is good or keep quiet, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not hurt (or insult) his neighbor; and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should entertain his guest generously."</b>
<i>(Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 76 :: Hadith 482)</i>


The social principles laid down in this saying compise an excellent sociological advice. If we stay quiet everytime we feel the urge of passing a negative remark regarding someone, we would end up avoiding the very triggers that spark violence around us. We would stop ourselves from breaking so many hearts and damaging the self-esteem of so many people around us. Psychiatrists would tell us that most anti-social behavior stems from injured self-esteem. What better way is there to protect the self-esteem and confidence of the society than to inculcate a sense of sobre propriety in the individuals who form it? Islam produces thoughtful kind human beings who are wary of any action that has a negative impact on the society around them. That is why such importance is given by the Allah and His Messenger (SAAW) to the rights of the neighbor, as he is (apart from your own family) your most immidiate society. Lastly, The Prophet (SAAW) is simaltaneously reminding us that this is not optional advice. Beware that you will be accountable for your behaviour in your society to ALLAH (SWT) on The Day of Judgement.


:subhanallah:


Indeed, Muhammad (SAAW) is a Mercy to ALL existence! The greatest benefactor humanity has ever known, will ever know, by the Will of ALLAH (SWT). May ALLAH (SWT) allow us to understand the truth, love Him (SAAW), respect Him (SAAW) and obey him unconditionally.


:assalam: May the Peace and Blessings of ALLAH (SWT) be upon us all. Ameen!

Narrated Abu Huraira:


Allah's Apostle said, "A man used to give loans to the people and used to say to his servant, 'If the debtor is poor, forgive him, so that Allah may forgive us.' So when he met Allah (after his death), Allah forgave him." (Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 56 :: Hadith 687)


:subhanallah: Such ultimate Mercy on such an (apparently) small deed. Indeed ALLAH's forgiveness and Mercy is The True Success. May ALLAH (SWT) forgive us ALL and have Mercy on us ALL.


But most of all...

This thread is worth not to be put off:


Narrated Abi Dhar, that the Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam said: your smiling in the face of your brother counts for you as Sadaqa, enjoing good and forbiding evil counts for you as Sadaqa, guiding someone who is lost in a land counts for you as Sadaqa, helping one whose eye sight is weak by seeing on his behalf counts for you as Sadaqa, removing stones, thorn and bones off the road counts for you as Sadaqa, pouring the contents of your bucket in your brother's counts for you as Sadaqa (reported by Sharh Jameà Al Termidhi)

<a></a><div><div><div>‘Abd Allaah bin Jafar said “The Apostle of Allaah(saws) seated me behind him(on his ride) one day, and told me secretly a thing asking me not to tell it to anyone. The place for easing dearer to the Apostle of Allaah(saws) was a mound or host of palm trees by which he could conceal himself. He entered the garden of a man from the Ansar(Helpers). All of a sudden when a Camel saw the Prophet (saws) it wept tenderly producing yearning sound and it eyes flowed. The Prophet (saws) came to it and wiped the temple of its head. So it kept silence. He then said “Who is the master of this Camel? Whose Camel is this? A young man from the Ansar came and said “This is mine, Apostle of Allaah(saws).” He said “Don’t you fear Allaah about this beast which Allaah has given in your possession. It has complained to me that you keep it hungry and load it heavily which fatigues it.”</div></div>

What would be counted as lying:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amir:

My mother called me one day when the Messenger of Allah () was sitting in our house. She said: Come here and I shall give you something. The Messenger of Allah () asked her: What did you intend to give him? She replied: I intended to give him some dates. The Messenger of Allah () said: If you were not to give him anything, a lie would be recorded against you.
