:: Obligation of loving another Muslim ::
AsSalamulaikum wr wb,
First of all, to all my beloved readers, I apologise for my late post and absence in our comfortable zone here as you all should know that I'm busy with my schdules and planning for this year and next year. InsyaAllah I won't leave anyone here and also I'll reply all your questions about Deen okay?
Now I'm gonna share with you about my lesson with my Sheikh.
Right! Today sheikh shared a topic with us about love~~~ wahhhhh~~~ ❤
*cut the crap out*
Actually its about The obligation of loving all Muslims. He started his sharing session with a hadeeth:
Abu Hamzah Anas bin Malik, radiyallahu 'anhu, who was the servant of the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, reported that the Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, said:
"None of you truly believes (in Allah and in His religion) until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself"
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]
From this hadeeth, Sheikh bring out the importance of loving one another in Islam, as how u love for your own self. Its like between one muslim to another muslim is like a family tree, once he recite the syahadah, he's in the family tree of Muslims. Thats the sign of full imaan (كمال اﻹيمان).
Loving your brother or sister in Islam is not just by sayings or in words but the action and result plays a big role too.
Sheikh also highlighted that if u love someone and want him or her to be in Jannah as how u wanted yourself to be placed in there, then give advice to them, guide them and dont lead them astray. Thats what we called loving in same faith or as known as for the sake of Allah swt.
From love, it can lead to have a mercy in ourselves. For instance, If we see an old man carrying a bulky and heavy items, by loving and having mercy on him, insyaAllah automatically we will help him.
Sheikh also highlighted another important point, having mercy towards the non-muslims and not being selfish and busy in our 'muslims family tree'. We also could help the non-muslims by spreading the dakwah sincerely and with wisdom towards them.
Last point, from the hadeeth above, loving one another could lead to full imaan of someone, right? So having grudge and jealousy feelings between each other then could decrease our Imaan. Beware of that please. May Allah swt bless us and purify our hearts and make us all loving one another for the sake of Allah swt.
Together we stand, Divided we fall.
Wallahua'lam.
May Allah swt gather us in the Jannah.
Xie xie!
WasSalamualaikum wr wb.. :)
