Pray.
Because he feels like he is the outcast
of the sight.
He is isolated.
So why should he do anything? Nobody loves
him. But if you approach him in a
nice way,
try to show him that Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala is Merciful, and you can do better,
and you do it this way or this
way, He will accept from you.
In another hadith,
one of the companions whose name was Abu
Allah, as reported by Imam Abu Khayy, was
brought to the crowd
again for drinking.
And he was left.
One of the companions said, Laanaullah,
fakathiramayutabi.
May Allah curse him
every time they bring him to be disciplined
or punished. So the Prophet
said,
Don't curse him because I know for sure
that he loves Allah and loves this messenger.
So don't curse him.
Number 3,
being kind to them.
Show them kindness.
The person who is not practicing
is like some person who is has,
some kind of sickness.
And he deserves your pithi, and he deserves
your kindness.
Allah
when he is telling Musa and Harun, Moses
and Aaron, in the Quran to go to
speak to Firaun,
the pharaoh.
The same person who says, Analu Abu'lal,
I'm your Lord the Most High.
The same person who said Ma'alim tu lakumilillainuay.
I don't know of any other Gods for
you except myself.
So
Allah is telling Musa and Harun to go
to speak to him,
Go and say a nice and kind word
to him.
Maybe he will remember Allah or fear
the presence of his Lord.
A nice and kind word. And this guy
is claiming to be a God.
So imagine.
Number 4.
Not to expose them.
To disgrace them in public, and to speak
about them.
Sayyida Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her.
She said, whenever
someone did something wrong, a particular person
did something
wrong. And it was brought to the attention
of the Prophet
He would talk to the congregation
and tell them he wouldn't say,
why did this particular person did so and
so?
He would say,
Why some people do this and this? And
he never
names the person. He never gives his name
in public.
But he would talk collectively
about some people, so he would teach
the people,
and the person
in question also will be included among the
people.
Number 5. Giving the people advice
in secret. Because advising some somebody publicly is
a sword of disgrace.
You will hurt the brothers or the sisters
feelings if you talk to them
pride, but not public.
Umu Darda, one of the companions of the
prophet
said,
Whoever gives advice to his brother
in secret,
he's honoring him. You honor your brother. But
if you talk to him publicly,
this is a sort of disgrace, humiliate
him. And again, you expect him to listen
from you after you disgrace him,
alarus al Hashem, in front of all the
people.
Number 6.
If something bad happens to him, and he
is not practicing,
don't feel happy in your heart
that he is having a miserable life, or
he's having a misfortunate
situation. Shamata in her.
Imam al Khortobi
radhiallahu anhu says,
And this is reported by Imam Turmili, and
they said this is a good hadith.
The prophet
says, when something bad happens to your brother,
don't feel happy in your heart because maybe
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will remove it from
your brother and give it to you.
Number 7, and this is very common.
When you see someone who is not practicing,
someone who is not praying properly, or fasting
properly,
you look down upon him,
or you make fun of him.
You make fun of him. And this is
not acceptable.
Ibn Affa, a secondari, one of the great
scholars,
used to
say, So this is very deep. He said,
maybe if someone does something wrong,
this will make him regret
and feel bad in his heart, so he
will make tawbatullah.
This person would be much better than someone
who is doing something good,
then he feels in his heart like he's
doing something big.
He will stop doing good,
and he will be proud,
arrogant because of the good deeds he's doing.
So in the sight of Allah,
the first person is good.
So not every evil thing that happens is
bad. It might lead to some good things.
And not everything that good that happens
is good because it might lead to something
wrong. We ask Allah
to forgive our sins and to accept our
good deeds, and to give us the best
in this life and the best in the
life to come. Ask Allah to listen.
When you see your brother
doing something evil,
don't help the shaitan or the devil against
your brother.
Your brother. Don't curse him.
Ask Allah to protect you from the evil
he is doing, or to ask Allah for
hidayah or guidance for him. This is what
you should do.
We would never judge someone.
This is in the Mas'ud radiAllahu, he would
say.
We would never judge someone by his actions,
but we
