Every individual
who brings you tales about others.
Right? He says so and so done that,
and so and so done this.
Right? So and so said this about you.
Right?
Upon you is to do 6 things.
Upon you is to do 6 things.
Number
1.
That you don't believe what this individual is
saying. Straight away. Why?
Because this person who's carrying tails is a
Farsik.
He's a
transgressor. He is partaking
in some of the Or should I say,
one of the most
major sins possible
because of the corruption that it causes. There
are some major sins that is what?
Limited to maybe just yourself
or 2 people.
This is now what
causing problems and corruption upon amongst many.
Shouldn't believe him. Because he's a Farsikh,
Mardudu Shahada. This person's testimony in court will
be rejected.
And in Islamic court, they won't believe him,
or they won't accept anything that he says.
Because of him, committing fisq.
Athani. Number 2:
You should forbid him from doing this,
and you should advise him.
Number 3: You
Should hate him for the sake of Allah
Azzawajal.
Faheno Baheedur Indalam because he's despised by Allah
Azzawajal,
Due to him partaking in this filthy evil
sin.
Number 4.
That he shouldn't think
bad of his brother.
This person now that he's talking to you
about, you shouldn't start having bad assumptions of
him.
And that is because what?
Can't accept what this individual says, even though
it will burn.
Right?
It will make you feel at
or should I say, unease.
It will cause you discomfort.
You'll be thinking about it all night. How
can that individual say XYZ?
Number 5, Allah yahmila hoo.
Just to see,
walbaah.
This should not cause you now to start
spying.
This should not lead you now to start
spying on that individual.
Now that this has been said, you send
people, oh, go and double check. Does he
really say that? Go and ask him. Try
to act like you're on his side,
and they are his friend. See whether he
says that.
And that is because Allah said, Do
not
spy on one another. And Number 6,
You should not
fall into that which
you advise this tale teller of.
You may say to him now, Aqid listen,
what you've done is wrong, you shouldn't do
this. But then,
you go to your wife, or you go
to your brothers and sisters, and you start
saying, I can't believe what that guy said
about me.
He just prohibited that individual from not doing
this,
and you shouldn't be believing him. You should
not relate that which is being said.
May Allah give us a Tawfir to act
upon that. It's not easy.
Right?
These six points are really what? Pushing bonds.
It's really putting us to the test,
and on the ropes if you wanna call
it.
