GRUDGES AND DAMAGING RELATIONS AMONG PEOPLE

By Sheikh Salah al-Budair - 14 Muharram 1436

His Eminence Sheikh Salah al-Budair, may Allah preserve him, delivered the Friday Khutbah entitled, “Grudges and Damaging Relations among People”, in which he talked about the danger of harbouring grudges against others, stating that this is one of the causes of severing relations among people. He also urged Muslims to have goodwill towards one another.

Now then Muslims,
Fear Allah, for fear of Allah is the best of all gains and obedience to Him is the most honourable source of pride.
"O You who Believe! Keep your duty to Allah and fear Him, and speak (always) the truth. He will direct you to do righteous good deeds and will forgive you your sins. And whosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger (Peace and blessings be upon him), he has indeed achieved a great achievement (i.e. he will be saved from the Hell-fire and will be admitted to Paradise)." (Al-Ahzab: 70-71)

O Muslims!
Love and affection can never exist among people who harbour hatred against one another. Whoever nurtures enmity and is bent on revenge will live in torment and will suffer severe distress. Nothing can damage relations among people more seriously than grudges; they are the inner hatred and the evil that resides within people. Grudges destroy civilisations, drain wealth, impede conciliation, sever bonds of friendship, and incite fighting and war. A grudge, even if it is old, Is just like mange; it disappears for some time before it finally spreads. How soon it may take place! How quickly it takes shape! How close it is! And How mercilessly it spreads! read more

THE PERFECT HUSBAND?

Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A cell phone on a bench rings and a man engages the hands-free speaker function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to listen.

MAN: "Hello"
WOMAN: "Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
MAN: "Yes"
WOMAN: "I'm at the mall now and found this beautiful leather coat. It's only $1,000. Is it OK if I buy it?"
MAN: "Sure, go ahead if you like it that much."
WOMAN: "I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the new 2014 models. I saw one I really liked."
MAN: "How much?"
WOMAN: "$80,000."
MAN: "OK, but for that price I want it with all the options."
WOMAN: "Great! Oh, and one more thing. The house we wanted last year is back on the market. They're asking $950,000."
MAN: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer, but just offer $900,000."
WOMAN: "OK. I'll see you later! I love you!"
MAN: "Bye, I love you, too."

The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are looking at him in astonishment. Then he smiles and asks: "Anyone knows whose phone this is?"
