Akhlaaq-Tasawwuf

Yes or no

Just like there is 'Yes' in life, there is also 'No' in life. It is not only 'Yes' or only 'No'. There are both. A person must know when to say 'Yes' and when to say 'No'. If you say 'Yes' to everything that your wife tells you, you will become a good accomplice and a henpecked husband. Similarly, if you say 'No' to everything, you will become a negative and a very difficult person.

Make your choice

Enjoy yourself for a short time to suffer forever or suffer for a short time to enjoy forever. If the equilibrium and sense of balance in your brain is still good and is functioning well, you will prefer suffering a little and remain in well-being forever. This is a test of your intelligence. It is through your way of living that we will know if you are intelligent or if there is any defect in your intelligence.

Purpose and effect

The purpose of our creation is the obedience of Allah Ta’ala. We obey Allah Ta’ala, we please Him. So, the purpose of our existence itself is to live for the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala. To live for the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala has many benefits and good effects. However, we must not live in the obedience of Allah Ta’ala with the intention of taking benefits from its positive effects. By doing this, we will lose our true direction. And this will deflect us from our real destination. For example, a person has a destination to which he is heading to.

Intelligent or stupid

A person is well-aware that Allah Ta’ala is looking at him wherever he is. He cannot hide anything from Allah Ta’ala. However, he is not afraid nor does he hesitate to disobey Allah Ta'a1a. However, the same person can discontinue his journey and return home upon seeing a cat passing in front of him on the road. You are afraid of a cat but you are not afraid of Allah Ta’ala. It is true that when a person is not afraid of Allah Ta’ala, he is afraid of everything. He may also be afraid of his shadow.

SWEET AND BLAND

Drink a sweet tea. Then, eat a Gulab jamoun, Laddu or Jalebi and then drink your tea again. You will notice that at first, the tea seemed very good but the second time it was not such because it was bland. You had found it sweet and good because you did not know the real meaning of sweetness. When you got the opportunity to taste something really sweet, this has devaluated the value of the tea that you had drunk at first. The same thing happens in our everyday lives. We love this one and that one. We cannot live without him / her.

Seeking the pleasure of Allah by making people angry

"The one who seeks the pleasure of Allah by making people angry, Allah Ta’ala will be satisfied with him and will make people also become satisfied with him..." (Ibn Hibbaan)

Explanation

Looking for your own advantage/your interest/your benefit

Everyone has the right to look for his advantage. And in a way, it can be said that everyone should look for his advantage. And obviously, that is what almost everyone is doing. However, one must not do so at all costs. There are certain things to consider before looking for one’s advantage. This advantage must not be sought by causing harm to a person. For example, it is advantageous for you to park your car in front of the garage of a person but this is inconveniencing that person.
