Book Name:Imam e Azam ka Taqwa

1.         Sayyiduna Yazeed Bin Haroon رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said, ‘I acquired knowledge from one thousand teachers, but found Imam-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه to be more in piety and control of his tongue.’ (Al-Khayraat-ul-Hisaan, pp. 58)

2.         Sayyiduna Wakee’ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said, ‘Imam-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه made it compulsory for himself that if he would take an oath even for the   right thing, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would give one dirham in Sadaqah. Once, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه took an oath, and gave one dirham in Sadaqah. Thereafter, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه made it compulsory upon himself to give one dinar in Sadaqah at that time, provided that if he took an oath, then whenever he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did take an oath, he would give one dinar in Sadaqah.

فُضُول گوئی کی نکلے عادت، ہو دُور بے جا ہنسی کی خَصلت

دُرُود پڑھتا رہوں میں ہر دَم، امامِ اعظم ابُوحنیفہ!

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

If life comes to an end, then…?

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you noticed? Sayyiduna Imam-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was a very pious person; he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would protect his tongue to a great extent and would give a dirham and dinar in Sadaqah even when he took a true oath. On one hand, we have his beautiful character, and on the other hand we have our sinful acts. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه protected his life in a way that he became renowned amongst the people as one who spoke less and mostly remained quiet, whereas due to our useless talks and rudeness, many people get worried. His era was a witness to his piety and fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, whereas we know what our condition is.

Just ponder over why this is so? Isn’t it because of مَـعَـاذَ الـلّٰـه عَـزَّوَجَـلَّ losing fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ? Or due to committing an abundant amount of sins, our hearts have become dark? If this is the case, then it is a matter of serious concern,
