Hadith. 5
Abu Hurayrah,
may Allah be satisfied with him, narrated that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, “Allah, the Exalted in Might and the Ever-Majestic, said, ‘If My servant thinks of doing (i.e., intends to do) a good deed and does not do it, I record if for him as a good deed unless he does it; and if he does it, I record it for him as ten times the like thereof. And if he thinks of doing (i.e., intends to do) a bad deed and does not do it, I forgive it for him unless he does it; and if he does it, I record it as one bad deed.” The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, “The angles (would) say, ‘O Lord, this servant of Yours wants to do a bad deed,’ while He knows best about him. He (would) say, ‘Watch him. If he does it, then record it as the like of it and if he refrains from it, then record it as one good deed. Indeed! He will have refrained from it for fearing Me.”
(Muslim)
Imagine the mercy of Allah. Why are we so weak that we fear the environment and the public instead of fearing Allah. Why do we not have the courage to grow beard when we know that we will be in the state of sin “24 hours” while not having a beard. We will be in the sate of sin when we are working, when we are sleeping, when we are eating even when we are praying! While we are in the state of sin, would Allah keep us busy doing some thing that will satisfy us? (please refer to Hadith 4).
Same applies to women who go out on the streets and/or at work without wearing hijab, when they are aware that it is haram to show their hairs in public and is a major sin. Do they really think that working in a state of sin will satisfy them? Then why are we so weak? Don’t we believe that no one but Allah, is here to protect us and to succeed us? If we ask any one that why don’t you wear Hijab or why don’t you grow beard then they would not have any answer to give apart from saying “its my choice”. But they should ask themselves that is it really my choice or the environment’s and Shetan’s choice? Have they ever pleased any one so far by not having a beard or not wearing Hijab? If we put 1 step towards Allah, Allah will put 10 steps towards us. (please refer to Hadith 1) and imagine Allah putting 10 step towards us! There is no way we will not succeed!. Please spend bit of time thinking about it when relaxed. May Allah provide us courage and the ability the to remain on the right path and to challenge the environment we are in. Amin. Please forgive me this email has hurt any one! I did not mean to hurt any one (Allah knows best).
