    In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy

    Some Admonitions of Abdullaah Bin Mas'ood (radiyallaahu-anhu)



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’Indeed, you see a disbeliever with the healthiest body amongst the people and with the sickest heart; and you will come across a believer with the most upright of hearts and the unhealthiest body. I swear by Allaah, if your hearts were sick and your bodies healthy, you will be more insignificant to Allaah than dung beetles.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’Search for your heart in three situations: When the recitation of the Qur’aan is heard, in the gatherings where Allaah is remembered and in times of seclusion. If you do not find your heart in these situations, then ask Allaah to grant you a heart, for indeed you do not have a heart.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’Sins are a possessor of the hearts.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ”Indeed, knowledge is not to narrate a lot, rather knowledge is to fear Allaah.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’Indeed, the people make their speech very good and appropriate; the one whose speech is in conformity with his actions is that one who has achieved his portion of (goodness). And the one whose speech is in opposition to his actions, then he is that one who has rebuked himself.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’There is not anything on the face of the earth more needed than a prolonged imprisonment of the tongue.’’



    He (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:



    ‘’Indeed, I detest that I should see a man being idle, neither (occupied) with anything of the deeds of the worldly life nor that of the hereafter.’’

    In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy


    The Misers


    Allaah (The One Free from all imperfections) said:

    ‘Those who are miserly and enjoin miserliness on other men and hide what Allaah has bestowed upon them of His Bounties. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a disgraceful torment.’4:37



    Imaam Sadi (rahimahullaah) said about the statement of Allaah:



    'Those who are miserly’, that is: They refrain from fulfilling the rights obligatory upon them to fulfil. ’‘And enjoin miserliness on other men” through their statements and actions. ”And hide what Allaah has bestowed upon them of His Bounties’; That is knowledge, through which the astray are guided and the ignorant ones are led aright.


    So, they hide it from them and make apparent to them falsehood that comes between them and the truth. Thus they (i.e. the misers) have gathered between miserliness with regards to wealth and knowledge, and between hastening towards loss for themselves and for others. This is a characteristic of the disbelievers, and for that reason Allaah (The Most High) said: ”And We have prepared for the disbelievers a disgraceful torment.”

    In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy

    Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said that Shaqeeq Ibn Ibraaheem (rahimahullaah) said:


    The door of (success and wellbeing granted by Allaah in this life and the next) has been closed against the creation in six things:


    [1]Their pre-occupation with the blessings of (Allaah), whilst being unthankful;

    [2]Their desire for knowledge, whilst they abandon action;

    [3]They rush towards sin, whilst delaying repentance;

    [4]They are (given) prestige in accompanying the righteous people, whilst they abandon following their deeds;

    [5] The worldly life elapses on them, whilst they run after it;

    [6] and the afterlife is approaching them, whilst they turn away from it.


    I say: The basis of this is a lack of fervent desire, fear, weakness in certainty, short-sightedness, humiliation and lowliness of the soul, and exchanging that which is better for that which is lower; otherwise, if the soul were noble and exalted, it would not have been pleased with something lower.

    In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy


    Narrated Abu Hurairah (may Allaah be pleased with him): ‘’The Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said: the example of a miser and an alms-giver is like the example of two people wearing two iron cloaks from their breasts to their collar bone; and when the alms-giver gives in charity, the cloak becomes capacious till it covers his whole body to such extent that it hides his fingertips and covers his footprints. And when the miser wants to spend, it (the iron cloak) sticks and (its) every ring gets stuck to it place, he tries to widen it, but it does not become wide.’’ [1]



    Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) commented on this hadeeth saying:



    This shows that the soul of the generous and kind person is at ease in alms-giving. And whenever the covetous and miserly person wants to give charity, his soul is constricted. This is an indication of that which is in his heart of covetousness, and that is because he is not prepared to spend. [2]

    The Captive of Shaytaan And Prisoner of Desires



    Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:



    Disobedience is the cause of being in Shaytaan’s captivity and a prisoner of lowly desires. And from its afflictions is that a disobedient person is always in the captivity of his devil, the prison of his lusts and the leadership of his desires; so he is a captive and a shackled prisoner. There is neither a captive whose state of affairs is more evil than a captive whose captor is his worst enemy, nor is there a prison more restricted than the prison of desires and shackles that are more restrictive than the shackles of lust; so how can a heart that is a captive and a shackled prisoner traverse the path to Allaah and the home of the afterlife?


    How can he proceed upon a singular track? When the heart is shackled, it is stricken with harm from every angle in accordance with the (severity) of its shackles. The likeness of the heart is that of a bird; it distances from harm whenever it flies high, and it is surrounded by harm whenever it lands.



    And it is reported in a hadeeth: ‘’Shaytaan is a wolf to a human being.’’ And just as an unprotected sheep in the midst of wolves is quickly destroyed, likewise if there is no protection from Allaah for the slave, it is a must that his wolf will prey on him. He (the slave) is protected by Allaah through Taqwaah (fear of Allaah). It (Taqwaah) is a shield and shelter from Allaah between the person and his wolf; just as it is shield against punishment in this life and the afterlife.



    And whenever the sheep is closer to its shepherd, it is safer from the wolf; and whenever it is distanced from the shepherd, it comes closer to being destroyed. So the sheep is more protected when it is closer to the shepherd, for the wolf only takes away the (sheep, cattle etc.) that are distanced, and it the ones far away from the shepherd.



    The basis of this affair is that whenever the heart is distanced from Allaah, then harm upon it is quicker; and whenever it is comes closer to Allaah, it is distanced from harm. Being distanced from Allaah is of various levels, and some are more severe than others. Being distanced from (Allaah) through disobedience is greater than being distanced from (Allaah) through thoughtlessness; and being distanced from (Allaah) through innovation in religion is greater than being distanced from (Allaah) through disobedience; and being distanced from (Allaah) through hypocrisy and polytheism is greater than all of that.

    In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy


    Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:


    To exercise patience (by turning away) from (forbidden) desires is easier than exercising patience upon that which (such) desires necessitates (of punishments); for indeed (such desires) either necessitates hurt and punishment or suspends a more fulfilling pleasure.



    [They (i.e. such forbidden desires) either squander (one’s) time by wasting it in (that which will lead to) sorrow and regret or defamation of honour that is more beneficial to the slave when respected than when defamed.


    (They) either cause the perishing of wealth whose continuation is better for him than its cessation or the loss of a rank and (good) reputation whose continuation is better than its loss.


    (They) either withhold blessings whose continuation is more pleasurable and delightful than the fulfilment of the desires or they strike by devising a path for you which was not to be found previously.


    (They) either bring about anxiety, distress, grief and fear which are not equal (in their severity) to the delight of desires or you forget knowledge whose mention is more delightful than the attainment of desires.


    (They) either make (one’s) enemy rejoice and grieves (his) ally or they prevent the means to a blessing that was to be received, or they bring about flaws that remain as characteristics which will not cease to (exist); because deeds do inherit characteristics and manners.

    Mistakes Committed In Conversations And Gatherings


    The First Mistake: Talk-activeness




    Talk-activeness is too much speech without benefit, and the talk-active one is he who speaks a lot (and becomes) burdensome. You find amongst the people one who is a talk-active person and a jester. He speaks in every affair and enters into every restricted (conversation). When present in a gathering, he fills it with a lot of noise and preoccupies it with excess speech.


    Talk-activeness is a manifestation from the affairs of bad manners, and it is a proof of one’s feeble intelligence and weakness in religion. The Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:


    ''Indeed, the most beloved to me amongst you and the closest to me in the Hereafter is the one with the best manners amongst you. And the most disliked to me amongst you and the most distanced from me in the Hereafter is the one with the evilest manners amongst you; the prattlers, the garrulous ones and the loudmouths.''
    [Reported by Imaam Ahmad and others, and declared Hasan by Imaam Al-Albaanee in As-Saheehah: Number: 791]


    Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu-anhu) said: ‘’There is no goodness in excessive speech.’’ [Reported by Ibn Abdul Barr (rahimahullaah) in Bahjatul Majaalis 1/61]


    And Allaah knows best


    To be continued Inshaa-Allaah
