OUR ONLY CONCERN

To get back on track; our endeavour should be to try and reach this stage of independence, where we don’t concern ourselves with such words and statements of criticism and
mockery.

If we have to adopt the attire of the Sawliheen, do good and righteous deeds and join the company of the pious, then people will brand us munafiqeen (hypocrites), or will
attribute our deeds to riyaa (show). More often than not a person has to contend with discouraging and even
disheartening remarks and comments.

If we have to pay heed to what others have to say and then prevent them from the same, then how many tongues can our two hands hold and then too, for how long ?

This is a sign that we have not established a true nisbat (connection) with Allah Ta’ala and His Rasul صلئ الله عليه وسلم . As a result, we are worried about what others will say and think of us. …Where have we got such time to waste ? The concern which should occupy our 24 hours is : Is my Allah pleased with me or not ? Is my Beloved Rasul صلئ الله عليه وسلم  pleased with me or not ?

…It’s easy to know this. Check how much we are doing to please them.

Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم  had said : “If someone wants to know what
position he enjoys in the eyes of Allah, he has only to look at what place he gives to Allah (in his heart and life).”
