Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
“No prison is tighter than the prison of passions, and no chain is harder than the chains of desires.”
[al-Da wa (p. 125)]
Al-Hasan Al-Basri was asked on his deathbed:
“O Abu Sa’eed, offer us some words you can benefit us with.
He replied, “I will equip you with 3 words, then you must leave me to face what I am facing.
1. Be the farthest of people from those things you have been forbidden,
When you sin, regret the sin and immediately follow it with sincere repentance. Do this every time you sin, regardless of how many times you fall back into the same sin. Never let repeated sin make you lose hope in Allah’s mercy.
A barber was once cutting a man's hair and the barber said: “I do not believe in the existence of God.”
The Muslim asked: “Why not?”
The barber said: “There is so much misery and chaos in the world. If God existed, this mess would not exist."
The Muslim said: "I also do not believe in barbers..."
The barber asked confused: “What do you mean?”
The Muslim said to the barber: “Do you see those men outside with long hair?”
The barber said: “Yes.”
The Muslim said: “If barbers existed, people with long and messy hair would not exist.”
The barber said: “We exist, but people do not come to us!“
The Muslim then said: “Exactly. God also exists, but people do not turn to God for guidance. That is why there are so many problems in the world."
@blamslam2 @1connu_91@ZabarwanHills@IKON1436 Bring your daleel that Ali(ra) is the first rightful caliph. If Ali (ra) himself believed that , then , he would’ve never given allegiance to Abu bakr (ra). We love Ali (ra) more than you but we don’t exaggerate his status. If you truly followed Ali(ra) you would stop betting.
@hdrshia@1connu_91@ZabarwanHills@IKON1436 The main disagreement between us and you is that you guys openly commit Shirk and call people towards it. The one sin Allah Azawajal will never forgive if a person dies upon it. We call you to worship Allah Azawajal alone , you say no thanks , that doesn’t seem appealing.
@1connu_91@ZabarwanHills@IKON1436 Who is greater in status Ali (ra) or Prophet Muhammad sallalahu alaihi wasalam? Why make dua to Ali but not Muhammad Alaihi salatu wasalam?
@1connu_91@ZabarwanHills@IKON1436 All acts of Ibadah are to be done sincerely for Allah Azawajal alone….show me where in the Quran or the Sunnah it mentions "plus Ali" . Dua is an act of Ibadah or is it not? Bring clear evidence. If u do so ill become Shia today.
@1connu_91@ZabarwanHills@IKON1436 Leave shia’ism and follow Muhammad alaihi salatu wasalam, for your own good. Never did he call to glorifying Ali (ra), rather he called the people to Tawheed and to avoid shirk. How is Ali (ra) gonna benefit you, whilst he is unaware of your supplication towards him?
