The strong and the weak
The physical strength that a person possesses gives him the impression that he is everything. Blinded by his strength, he fails to see what is on the other side of his strength. He does not know that behind each strong, is someone stronger. The strong being who has no one stronger than him is Allah Ta'ala. Besides Allah Ta'ala, we are all weak.
A simple little thing suffices to overthrow us. Sometimes, because of a small injury, a person must have his foot amputated while at other times, he may lose his life itself. He may claim to be strong but he cannot resist a tiny virus that can cause him all kinds of complications. Whether you are an athlete, a weightlifter or anyone else, you are helpless in front of invisible and undetectable microbes. So, it is useless to consider ourselves strong. It is this same impression that makes us dominate those whom we consider weak. We do not think that there are stronger ones than us who can behave with us in the same way that we are behaving with the weak. So, we should not oppress others. A person who oppresses does not get prosperity. He will be struck somewhere. And this will be very painful for him. This applies to all those who have authority. From the ruler of a state to the shepherd, all are included. Everyone has a price to pay. The question of being spared does not even arise.
A person who is weak can become strong if he receives the support of someone who is strong. Whoever has gained the support of Allah Ta'ala, has become strong. This support is acquired by being loyal and faithful to Allah Ta'ala. Loyalty and fidelity to Allah Ta'ala are obtained by following His Deen while observing the Mubaarak Tareeqah (the blessed way) of our beloved Nabi (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam).
Those who want to trouble those who are truly Deendaar, should think well before executing what they thought/contemplated. They should review their decision and their plan. Because in reality they are opposing Allah Ta'ala. Allah Ta'ala has promised to help the Deendaar. Those who want to harm the Deendaar are in fact knocking their heads against a big rock. The head will crash but the rock will remain intact.
