Assalamu alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh we continue our theme,
Lian key and Salah hikma annual Karim nights of empowerment,
parables, parables and wisdom from the Glorious Quran.
Allah makes a promissory statement in the Quran when he says a Nila
OD or our law, minimum income means reckoning.
Surely Allah will not cause any action of any person, male or
female, to be lost, or to be invaded.
And Allah further corroborates that statement by saying when I'm
Allah Saleh Amin decorating a window
for the young no higher Tonka yerba are the legacy and know
whom, to whom we asked any Maka and
whoever does good, whether male or female, and has faith, according
to the best of the deeds.
Of course, people do good deeds and hamdulillah people do pray,
the fast, they give charity, and do these good acts. But the
problem comes when at times, some people do things that do more harm
than good.
And Allah reminds us of is in the Quran, he says, such people for
whom ye saguna and whom you're Shinola to Allah, those who do
something, they assume it could be good, but in actual fact, it may
not be as good as they think, or it may not be the right thing to
do in the first place.
It is therefore important to do the right thing with the right
intention.
But it's equally important to realize the consequence of what we
are doing.
But it's equally important to note that the Rasul also said he
documented in the Muslim of Imam Muhammad in humble when he said
the Torah Jabu be Amelie, I hadn't had that on guru Bhima Tamela.
Do not be impressed by any action of anyone until you see the
consequence of the action.
Why? Because besides the action being evaluated by the intention,
the value of the action is also to be determined by the consequence,
but the action eventually leads to
so when Allah promises a German accent, to reward people,
according to the best of the deeds, it has considered what is
called the Cobra effect.
The Cobra effect is a term used in economics, that refers to a
situation when attempted solution to a problem makes the problem
worse. An attentive solution to a problem makes the problem actually
worse.
This name was coined based on an incident that occurred in colonial
India, where in the area of New Delhi, they were a lot of venomous
snakes in a particular area.
And people are dying due to these snake bites.
And the government's are hungry law. snakes were killed, there was
a reward, there was a dip in snake bites and instincts in the
facility. However, this led to some serious, unwanted
consequences. Why? Because after a short time, what people realize
they can make money out of this. So some people took snakes, they
eat them in the backyard. And every time they needed money, they
would kill a snake. So 10 Snakes can coins. When the government
found out about this, they stopped rewarding people for dead snakes.
Now the snakes were worthless. What the people then did was the
snakes were worthless, they went in the surrounding area and let
the snakes go. What happened? They were far more snakes now in the
area than ever there was before.
You see, the solution to the problem made the situation even
worse, though it was well intentioned, because they did not
consider the possible our team the consequence of it, you see, the
unintended consequence, the unintended consequence of a well
intentioned idea may lead to the worsening of the problem.
The problem with many of us is that the lack of attention to
fiscal all of the fiscal priorities
we often seek the secondary before paying attention to the primary
and to the principal. We try to examine in detail in debate about
the emotion of a few. Realizing without realizing the damage to
the money. We act on the emotions of a few without realizing the
damage it may cause them anyway. Let us reflect this. In the
Russell's life said Allahu alayhi wa he was a
practical example during the mechanism
Easily Rosu live 53 years in Makkah, last in using Medina 13
years of those 43 years. His mission is.
The prophets mission was confined in the first 18 years in Makkah to
calling people to the cause of Allah to cultivate monotheism
mission, that was the focus. During the second phase of his
mission, the Prophet did not Institute prayer fasting is
obligated. He did not Institute hygiene, though he was in Makkah
the very venue of the heart.
What better place to start with than being at a place in which not
only that he did not allow the Muslims to take up excess and
destroy the idols that everyone saw everyday around the Kaaba.
That same karma built by Ibrahim Ali Salaam is the global center of
taurine, not as a masjid not a place of worship only the global
center of story. In fact, we worship towards in the direction
even when we pray say the primary mission of the lawsuit is Tawheed
in hola hola yo, are you sure can be Nevada County May Allah forgive
it anything but shooting the first thing of the lawsuit led me to
destroy the idols.
So why didn't you do it? If your mission history and the antithesis
of Tawheed Allah forgives everything but you want to destroy
the idols. You are in Mecca. You are the Aqaba. And you see the
idols. You see, had he destroyed the idols at that time, they would
have been tremendous negative consequences. There would have
been tremendous bloodshed in Makkah, his message would have
been discredited, his entire mission would have been
jeopardized. His handful of followers could have been wiped
out,
but
at the right time,
in the right manner. And in the best way 23 or 30 years later. 13
years of suffering in Makkah, says the mount of Makkah, went to
Medina, they fought him, they killed his people.
After 10 years in Medina, 23 years after he called them for the first
time, with all the idols in the Kaaba, and everything. 23 years
afterwards, he comes back,
he returns from the exile, forgiving his enemies. And this
serve as a magnanimous example, of magnificence of prophetic
character, depth of emotional wisdom. They followed his example,
he entered quietly and peacefully, no tree was cut down. No water was
polluted. No age one was humiliated, no house was robbed.
No woman was insulted. It was thus that Mohammed re entered the
latest city of Makkah. And through all the islands of conquest,
there's no triumphant entry comparable to this one, Professor
Stein leaving
23 years after he enters with this kind of dignity, those kind of
magnificence of character and the spiritual strength.
The primary lesson for us in all of us,
do the right action.
for the right reason, in the right men
at the right place, and at the right time, then the Promise of
Allah would let us see and know as you roam the axon in Makkah and
ohyama Allah will reward you according to the best of your
deeds. Akula kolyada was toquilla Salam or aleikum wa rahmatullah.
