Book Name:Imam Malik Ki Seerat
Dear Islamic brothers! Let us be reminded of some sunan and points of etiquette related to walking from the booklet of the Amīr of Ahl al-Sunnah دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـهْ, entitled, “163 Madani Pearls”:
* It is stated in Part 15, in the 37th verse of Surah al-Isrāʾ:
وَ لَا تَمۡشِ فِی الۡاَرۡضِ مَرَحًا ۚ اِنَّکَ لَنۡ تَخۡرِقَ الۡاَرۡضَ وَ لَنۡ تَبۡلُغَ الۡجِبَالَ طُوۡلًا (۳۷)
And do not walk arrogantly on the earth; undoubtedly, you will indeed never tear the earth apart and will never reach the mountains in height.[1]
* The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: There was a man covered with two shawls who was strutting and full of pride, so Allah caused him to sink into the earth, and he will continue to sink until the Day of Judgement.[2]
* The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would walk whilst leaning forward slightly, as though he صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was descending from a height.[3]
Announcement
The remaining points of walking will be mentioned in the study circles, so take part and learn about them.
