Neki ki Dawat Tark Karnay kay Nuqsanaat

Book Name:Neki ki Dawat Tark Karnay kay Nuqsanaat

Dear Islamic brothers! We should not miss any opportunity of calling towards righteousness in order to attain the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, earning huge rewards and by preventing people from sins; continue performing this obligation with sincerity & determination. Those who do not prevent others from sins despite having the ability and power to do so are sinners. Now listen to three blessed Ahadis in this regard:

 

1.      The one who does not respect elders, does not show compassion to the young and does not call towards righteousness & forbid from evil is not from amongst us. (Musnad Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal, vol. 1, pp. 554, Hadis 2329)

1.      Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has stated, ‘O people! [Do] you recite this Verse?

 

یٰۤاَ یُّہَا الَّذِیۡنَ   اٰمَنُوۡا   عَلَیۡکُمۡ   اَ نۡفُسَکُمۡ   ۚ    لَا   یَضُرُّکُمۡ   مَّنۡ   ضَلَّ    اِذَا   اہۡتَدَ یۡتُمۡ ؕ

 

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: O People who believe! Take care of yourselves; he who has gone astray will not harm you when you are on the right way. (Part 7, Surah Al-Mai`dah, verse 105)

(That is, you may have assumed that deviation of deviants from the right path is not harmful to you because you are on the right path and that you do not need to prevent any deviant from deviation.)

 

I have heard the Blessed and Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم saying, ‘If people see some evil but do not change it, soon Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ will send His punishment upon them all.’

(Sunan Ibn Majah, vol. 4, pp. 359, Hadis 400)

 

2.      The Greatest and Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم had stated to blessed Sahaabah Kiraam رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم: Your women will become stubborn and your young men will become wicked. The blessed Sahaabah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم asked humbly, ‘Will this really happen?’ ‘Yes, in Whose power is my life, it will be even more severe than this.’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied. They asked humbly, ‘What will be more severe than this?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘What will be your condition when you would not perform اَمۡرٌ بِالۡمَعۡرُوۡفِ وَنَهۡيٌ عَنِ الۡمُنۡكَر?’ The blessed Sahaabah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم asked humbly, ‘Will it happen so?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘Yes, in Whose power is my life, it will be even more severe than this’. They asked humbly, ‘What will be more severe than this?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘What will be your condition when you will assume righteousness to be evil and evil to be righteousness?’ The Blessed Sahaabah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم asked humbly, ‘Will it happen so?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘Yes, in Whose power is my life, it will be even more severe than this’. They asked humbly, ‘What will be more severe than this?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘What will be your condition when you will enjoin evil and forbid from righteousness? The Blessed Sahaabah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم asked humbly, ‘Will it happen so?’ The Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘Yes, in Whose power is my life, it will be even more severe than this. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ says, ‘I will inflict those people in such a turmoil that their sensible people will also be in confusion.’ (Mawsu’ah Imam Ibn Abid Dunya, vol. 2, pp. 202, Hadis 31)
