Drop that Grudge!

...And don't Judge!

It is true to say that we as a human race are too quick to judge!

We don't look at all the facts and we blindly follow everyone else.

Our pious predecessors had something very important to teach about this concept.

It is reported that ‘Abdullâh b. Al-Mubârak said;

It is right that an intelligent person does not undervalue three [types of people]: the scholars, the rulers, and [his Muslim] brothers. Whoever undervalues the scholars will lose his afterlife, whoever undervalues the rulers will lose his worldly life, and whoever undervalues his brothers loses his good character and conduct.

Al-Dhahabî, Siyar A’lâm Al-Nubalâ`17:251.

Undervaluing can also mean judging without knowing or being prejudiced. Not respecting someone's status and achievements. Being jealous and envious.

As my mother always say; 'When you point a finger at someone just remember how many fingers are pointing right back at you!'

So, let's not judge each other but help each other be awesome! :)

Arrogance Breeds Arrogance!

Arrogance breeds arrogance! 

Remember, the devil was thrown out of heaven for his arrogance. 

Humble beginnings lead to great successes. 

Never forget those who helped you on the way. They were gifts from God and if God can gift you then He can withhold it from you. 

There may come a time where those same people who helped you need your help. If they turn to you then know that God chose you to be their gift. Don't throw away your rewards by shutting the door in their face. They will become someone else's gift and you will have passed on all your rewards. You don't want the door to be closed on your face on the Last Day. 

Hurry to be that gift God chose you to be! :)
