Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah while early hippo
hit in our last Herbie. He was Jamia MBA will mousseline.
We know that people do things for different reasons.
And while we are familiar with perhaps some of the reasons that
may motivate people to act in a particular way,
we as human beings cannot accurately determine the motives
of other people.
And unless we have specific evidence that indicates why a
person did something, we can only assume and our assumption can be
correct, or our assumptions could be wrong.
And therefore, we have to be careful that we do not judge the
intentions of others, thinking that we can somehow read the
hearts of other people and in the process, we may misjudge their
actions.
We reflect on two instances in the spirit of the Rasul Allah Allah
was telling them as part of our gurus, Army communist spirit in
Abuja, profound lessons from the life of the Prophet salallahu
Salam, the guarding the meta of judging the intention of others,
and both of them are documented. In the survey of Imam Al Bukhari.
There was a combatant on the battlefield fighting against the
Muslims,
and then a companion by the name of Osama bin Zaid, engage him in
battle and this person was fighting on the battlefield
against the Muslim people. And in fact, this person had the edge
over quality of the Muslim people it seemed until Osama engaged him
and summer with your Lavon subdued the person and then the print the
person pronounce the Shahada. When summer subdued him he had the
Shahada.
Shama assume that the person said the shahada just as an attempt to
perhaps spare his life. So, Oussama killed him anyway.
When the news of this incident, reads the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, the Prophet said, a cultural architect who
works at the Shahida Allah Illa Illa Allah, He you kill that
person, in, in spite of him professing testimony in the belief
in Allah, that he read the Kalima?
The person said your lawsuit Allah in nama father file of Ehrlich to
that person, he said the shahada just out of fear, he just said it.
And they're also saying Allahu alayhi wa sallam responded for
Hala, Shakta and Calbee Did you cut open his heart? To find out
whether he was sincere when he said the Shahada?
On another occasion,
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was dividing some wealth
among his followers, some thing that means it may have received
and he distributed amongst the companions. One man rudely said to
the Prophet, implying that the prophet should not be unfair. So
should the Prophet it tequila. Be careful Be conscious of Allah, but
not just a tequila be conscious of Allah. The hadith documented there
was no rude manner, almost warning the Prophet Don't be unfair. It
tequila.
The Prophet didn't say anything sunrise
and Sahil Buhari documents that after the man had left, one of the
companions Khalid bin Walid, approach the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam and said Allah Audrey baroka Shall I cut off his
neck? Let's drop him off. Shall I kill him? In other words,
and the Prophet La La La Hua Yi Hakuna. Usually? No, perhaps he's
a man who does good deeds, like praying, for example. Khalid said,
will come in Mussolini, Your call will be the son he made he called
me how many are people who pray? But they say not what is in the
hearts and the prophets. Allah Islam responded he said in the LEM
umara, an uncle, Uncle OB nurse, were a shockable pony. He says, I
have not been commanded
by Allah to cut open people's heart while I should.
And I have not been asked to check what is inside their hearts. In
other words, you cannot judge the intentions of people. The man says
something to the Rasool in his face, implying something negative.
And the Prophet in turn, said well, this is an error on his
part, but he does other good things. For example, He prays the
Prophet almost found an excuse for the person. How far is the
prophets reaction and his attitude from the common practice of
today's followers of that very same prophet Sal?
While while he was in them, we do not hesitate to harbor negativity
towards each other. And we rarely see good in each other. Whereas,
we must realize what without is not always correct and without,
rather than give the benefit of the doubt in the la sal Allahu
Allah wa salam in his expression of mercy, forgiving, loving,
finding an excuse, but never judging people. What is in the
hearts? Only Allah knows. May Allah subhanho wa Taala guide us
and grant us to be of pure hearts with good intentions. Inshallah.
Akula. Kali Harada was to create Allah wa salam aleikum wa
rahmatullah.
