HADITH/SAYINGS OF MUHAMMAD
(SALLALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALLAM)

Abu Hurairah (May allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Look at those who are inferior in status to you and do not look at those who are superior in status to you, for this will keep you from belittling Allah's Favour to you.'' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

This is the wording in Sahih Muslim. The narration in Al-Bukhari is: Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) said: "When one of you looks at someone who is superior in status to him in property and appearance, he should look at someone who is inferior in status to him".

Commentary: By looking at the worldly goods and riches of others, a person gradually becomes unthankful for the blessings which Allah has bestowed on him. The best remedy for this "disease" is that which has been prescribed by Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) in this Hadith.

The remedy is that one should look at the people who have lesser worldly goods and riches than one's own. If a person has a small house of his own which can protect him from the harshness of weather, then he has no need to see enviously towards sky-high buildings and palatial houses of others. He should look at the homeless people who spend their nights on footpaths and live in huts which in rain leak like sieve and are swept away by a wave of flood water, etc.

But from a religious angle, one should see towards those who are more fearful of Allah and observe their Salat meticulously so that one becomes more fond of obedience of Allah, has a greater fear of Him and devotes more time to prayer and devotion. This dispensation is also given in other Ahadith.

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.

E-pos ons by sjbekker@vodamail.co.za as jy die Dagstukkies op jou rekenaar wil ontvang..."

HOW TO PUT THE RIGHT PERSON IN THE RIGHT JOB?

Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2-3 candidates into the room and close it from outside. Leave them alone and come back after 2 hours, and then analyse the situation:

(a) If they are counting and recounting the number of bricks - PUT THEM IN ACCOUNTS.

(b) If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks - PUT THEM IN ENGINEERING.

c) If they are arranging the bricks in some other order - PUT THEM IN PLANNING.

(d) If they are throwing the bricks at each other - PUT THEM IN OPERATIONS.

(e) If they are sleeping - PUT THEM IN SECURITY.

(f) If they have broken! the bricks into pieces - PUT THEM IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.

(g) If they are sitting idle - PUT THEM IN THE HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT.

(h) If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has moved - PUT THEM IN TOP MANAGEMENT!!!
