What a Mocker Has to Remember About His [or Her] Reality When He [Or She] Mocks at Others
By Imam as Saadi
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Allaah [The Most High] said:
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تَذْبَحُوا بَقَرَةً ۖ قَالُوا أَتَتَّخِذُنَا هُزُوًا ۖ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ
And (remember) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: “Verily, Allah commands you that you slaughter a cow.” They said, “Do you make fun of us?” He said, “I take Allah’s Refuge from being among Al-Jahilun (the ignorants or the foolish). [2:67]
A Jaahil [ignorant one] is that one who speaks with a speech that contains no benefit and he mocks at the people. As for a sensible person, he sees that one of the most blameworthy traits -which is abhorred by [sound] religion and intellect- is to mock at someone who is a human being like himself. And if he has been favoured over another person, then this favour necessitates that he thanks Allaah and shows mercy to Allaah’s servants. Therefore, when Musa [alayhis-salaam] said this to them [i.e. I take Allaah’s Refuge from being among the ignorant], they knew that it [i.e. what he commanded them] was truth, so they said: [ادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا هِيَ -call upon your Lord for us that He may make plain to us what it is!(2:68)]

Horrors of the Grave
Hudhayfah related: "We were with the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) at a funeral and when we arrived at the grave [in which the deceased was to be buried] he sat down on its edge and looked repeatedly in it then said: "The believer shall be squeezed in the grave; a squeeze from which his bones will be broken, while the grave of a disbeliever shall be filled with fire." *
Abu Sa'īd al-Khudrī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said: "When a funeral is ready and the men carry the deceased on their necks (shoulders), if it was pious then it will say, 'Present me quickly', and if it was not pious, then it will say, 'Woe to it (me), where are they taking it (me)?' And its voice is heard by everything except mankind and we're they to hear it they would fall unconscious."

THREE PEOPLE TO STAY AWAY FROM
The companion ʿAlī ibn ʾAbi Ṭalib (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
"Do not be with the sinner, for he will beautify to you the things he does, and he will want you to be like him; and he will beautify to you the worst of his practices; and his entrance upon you and leaving from your company will cause ignominy and discredit [of you].
And do not accompany the fool, for he will exhaust himself [to help you] but will not benefit you, and he may want to benefit you but end up harming you; his silence is better than his speaking, his distance is better than his closeness, and him dying is better than him living.
And do not accompany the liar, for life will not benefit you with him, he will tell others what you say, and tell you what others say; and if you speak the truth, it will not be believed."

And do not accompany the liar, for life will not benefit you with him, he will tell others what you say, and tell you what others say; and if you speak the truth, it will not be believed."
- Abū Bakr Al-Daynūrī, Al-Mujālasah wa Jawāhir AlʿIlm no. 1379.
When people who had suffered affliction (harm, calamities) are given their reward...
Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said,
"On the Day of Resurrection, when people who had suffered affliction (harm, calamities) are given their reward, those who were healthy will wish their skins had been cut to pieces with scissors when they were in the world."

'You Only Know Someone When You Have Travelled With Them'
Umar Ibn Al-Khattab رضي الله عنه asked about a man who had given testimony, wanting to find out whether anyone could vouch for him.
A man said to him: "I will vouch for him, O' Ameer Al-Mu'mineen (Leader of the Believers)."
Umar asked: "Are you his neighbor?"
He said: "No."
Umar then asked: "Did you mix with him for a day and come to know his character?"
He said: "No."
Umar asked next: "Did you travel with him for traveling and being away from home reveal a man's true essence?"
He said: "No."
Umar said: "Perhaps you saw him in the mosque, standing, sitting and praying?"
He said: "Yes."
Umar then said: Go away, for YOU DO NOT KNOW HIM."
