Uswatun hasanah,
the best example to follow for us, for the entire ummah, said –
“The parable of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for each other is that of a body. When any limb aches, the whole body reacts with sleeplessness and fever.”
(Source: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 5665, Ṣaḥīḥ)
But see how many of us react on the sufferings of the oppressed, which is majorly due to the foreign interventions!
Many of us, easily label the sufferings as nothing but sins of those who are suffering!
SubhanAllah! How can one be so cold to pass such statements so easily?
The best of people, the companions of the Prophet (pbuh) were tested and tried heavily, will they say the same for the sahabas, for the companions as well?
No doubt! We all are sinners, but to label someone else’s sufferings as their sins is the matter of ignorance, especially when they are suffering because of illegal occupations and foriegn interventions!
“One should really either speak good or remain silent” – Another ignored Prophetic saying!
To say there is no khair in ummah left, is like mocking the beautiful ummah of the blessed Prophet of Allah swt.
Yes, we have many serious issues to handle and we are still heedless upon them,
Yes, there is a mess and even confusions around, Yes, there are many issues to handle, no doubt!
Yes, there are people deliberately indulged in forbidden things too,
But to envelop the entire ummah as worse, is actually an act of unjust!
May Allah swt make things easy for us and may we learn to be like one body, where if one limb pains, the body feels it, and react!
Ameen.
