Muslim Belief, Strengthening Foundation of Islam and Adab (Islamic Manners)

Some of those who are called to Allaah, when they are told to fear Allaah they say “Mind your own business”

Praise be to Allaah.

Their words are false and a rejection of the truth. Allaah is dislikes such a response. The evidence for that is what it says in the saheeh hadeeth narrated from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “The most beloved of speech to Allaah is when a person says: ‘Subhaanaka Allaahumma wa bi hamdika, wa tabaaraka ismuka wa ta’aala jadduka, wa laa ilaaha ghayruka (Glory and praise be to You, O Allaah, blessed be Your name and exalted be Your majesty, and there is no god but You).’ The most hated of speech to Allaah is when one man says to another, ‘Fear Allaah,’ and the other says, ‘Mind your own business!’”

(al-Silsilah al-Saheehah by al-Albaani, no. 2598)

You have to persist in da’wah, and bear patiently the things you suffer, as Luqmaan said to his son:

“O my son! Aqim-is-Salaah (perform As-Salaah), enjoin (on people) Al-Ma‘roof (Islamic Monotheism and all that is good), and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e. disbelief in the Oneness of Allaah, polytheism of all kinds and all that is evil and bad), and bear with patience whatever befalls you. Verily, these are some of the important commandments (ordered by Allaah with no exemption)”

[Luqmaan 31:17 – interpretation of the meaning]

"Help one another in birr (righteousness, virtue), and taqwa (piety,
fear of Allah, God-consciousness), and do not help one another in sinning
and transgression. And fear and revere Allah; verily, Allah is severe
in punishment." [Quran 5:2]

May Allah increase us in our Adab (Islamic Manners) and make us of those who have
the true and complete sweetness of faith. Ameen.

Allahumma (O Allah), We seek refuge in You from knowledge that does not benefit,
from a heart that is not subdued,
from a supplication that is not answered,
and from a soul that is not satisfied. AMEEN

Subhaanaka Allaahumma wa bihamdika, ash hadu an laa ilaha illa anta,
astaghfiruka wa atoobu ilayka.
(How perfect you are Allah I praise you, I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except you, I seek your forgiveness and turning to repentance to you.)

Allah's Apostle (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam)said, "There is a Sadaqa (charitable gift)
to be given for every joint of the human body; and for every day on
which the sun rises there is a reward of a Sadaqa (i.e. charitable
gift) for the one who establishes justice among people."
