Quarrelsome

Children’s Hadith

Quarrelsome

Mawlana Muhammad Javed Attari Madani

The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

اَبْغَضُ الرِّجَالِ اِلَی اللہِ الْاَلَدُّ الْخَصِمُ

The most hated person in the sight of Allah is the most quarrelsome person.[1]

Dear children! This hadith is from جوامع الکلم, which means it has few words but a lot of meanings.

This Hadith criticises people who are argumentative and informs us that they are disliked by Allah Almighty. Fighting and arguing are bad habits. Children who do this are disliked and do not do well in their studies. Good children do not want to be their friends too. Dear children! Keep the warning mentioned in this  Hadith in mind and avoid arguments. If you are kind, courteous and forgiving, instead of being quarrelsome, you will become beloved to Allah Almighty and enter Paradise.

Perform good actions, which please Allah Almighty and grant you reward, like reciting ṣalāt, helping your parents, listening to elders, always telling the truth and so on. Refrain from actions which displease Allah Almighty, like abandoning the prayer, watching films and dramas and swearing. May Allah Almighty grant us the ability to become beloved to Him.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ
