Al-Hujurat 49:10
إِنَّمَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ إِخۡوَةٌ فَأَصۡلِحُواْ بَيۡنَ أَخَوَيۡكُمْۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ

The believers are nothing else than brothers (in Islamic religion). So make reconciliation between your brothers, and fear Allah, that you may receive mercy.

Al-A'raf 7:25
قَالَ فِيهَا تَحۡيَوۡنَ وَفِيهَا تَمُوتُونَ وَمِنۡهَا تُخۡرَجُونَ

He said: "Therein you shall live, and therein you shall die, and from it you shall be brought out (i.e. resurrected)."

"A person may never slander - which falls under the previous cause (the Apparent Existential Sins). But he may see it and not do Inkār of the Munkar. And that falls under this cause from two avenues... It's the right of a Muslim upon another to defend him if he's being slandered. You're not the one slandering - but you're abstaining from defending your brother. The second avenue is that leaving the defense of your brother is leaving forbidding the evil as well..."
Shaykh Ahmad Musā Jibrīl (حفظه الله تعالى و راعى)

Brothers and sisters must rise to the occasion to defend those slandered, especially their Shuyūkh. Da'wah is pure, but it has proven to be a playground for Juhāl, Husād, decievers, slanderers and gossipers. It's important to constantly check one's sincerity to ensure they don't fall into the latter categories or leave da'wah altogether when faced with the harm that comes with it. May Allah silence the tongues of all those who slander our Shuyūkh, brothers, and sisters in Islam.

Be wise in how you fulfill your obligation of defending your Muslim brothers and sisters, and may Allah make it a means of purification and elevation of ranks for all those who are slandered.

Patience isn’t easy. Patience is tears. Patience is feeling alone. Patience is swallowing insults. Patience is smiles covering tears. Patience is crying for the response of Allah ~

Beware of sadness (احذروا الحزن):


Ibn Al Qayyim may Allah have mercy on him said the word (الحزن) – (sadness) does not appear in the Quran only in the form of forbidding it (ولا تهنو ولاتحزنوا) or in the form of negating it (فلاخوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون).

And the reason for this is because there is no benefit for having sadness in the heart. The most beloved thing to the shaitan is to make the believing slave sad by taking him off track.

The Prophet (ﷺ) sought refuge in Allah (Almighty) from sadness:

 (اللهم إني أعوذ بك من الهم والحزن)

Ibn Al Qayyim rahimahullāh said: Sadness weakness the heart and diminishes determination and wanting to go forward. And there is nothing more beloved to the shaitan than the sadness of a believer.

For this reason, be happy, optimistic and think good about Allah (Almighty). Have trust in what Allah (Almighty) is able to do and depend on Him. You will find happiness and pleasure in all situations.

Ibn Al Qayyim rahimahullāh said: Don’t ruin your happiness with worry and don’t ruin your mind with pessimism. Don’t ruin your success with deception and don’t ruin the optimism of others by destroying it. Don’t ruin your day by looking back at yesterday.

If you think about your situation, you will find that Allah (Almighty) has given you things without asking, so have trust in Allah (Almighty) that He doesn’t prevent anything you want except there is goodness for you.

You could be sleeping and the doors of the heavens are being opened with duas being made on your behalf, Subhan Allah: perhaps from someone poor whom you helped, or someone sad whom you brought joy or someone passing by and you smiled at him, or someone in distraught and you removed it.. so don’t ever underestimate any good deeds.

One of the righteous predecessors said: I make dua’a to Allah (Almighty) for something I want, and if He gives it to me then I’m happy once and if He doesn’t give it to me then I’m happy ten times because the first was my choice and the second was Allah’s choice.

As Sa’ady may Allah have mercy on him said: life is short so don’t shorten it with worries, grief, and sadness.

So be the owner of a heart that breathes happiness and satisfaction.

· May Allah (Almighty) make your times happy and may Allah (Almighty) forgive us all. Ameen.

You should not rejoice or mock the Muslim going through a hardship, especially the imprisoned

‎The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ said, “Do not rejoice over the misfortune of your brother, lest Allah have mercy upon him and afflict you with trials.”

Knowledge Is Only Attained by Striving and Learning. It Requires Utmost Effort and Dedication.

By Allah, during the summer the people used to come to me in masses and beg me to teach them Arabic. After I’d agree, they’d appear for the first couple of weeks, then on the fourth week, the majority would disappear. Only a handful of students would remain attending the class. Those who were dedicated and sincere, they’d leave speaking fluent Arabic Fushaa in less than 3 months as well as memorising Al-Baqarah completely. What’s the point of this? The point is, knowledge cannot be attained without patience and dedication. It requires striving, sincerity and time, you cannot attain it overnight. There is no shortcut. Look at those who reached the peak of their fields, they began just as you did and they strove hard. There is no magic formula. It is only those who remain patient and sincerely strives who taste the fruits of their efforts at the end. As for the one who began and gave up, he attained nothing at all, and the little he learnt will slip away from him faster than the blink of an eye because he stopped learning and thought it was sufficient for him.

Arabic is not a hard language to learn at all. However, like anything, it requires patience and hard work.

Al-Mumtahanah 60:13
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَتَوَلَّوۡاْ قَوۡمًا غَضِبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ قَدۡ يَئِسُواْ مِنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ كَمَا يَئِسَ ٱلۡكُفَّارُ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡقُبُورِ

O you who believe! Take not as friends the people who incurred the Wrath of Allah (i.e. the Jews). Surely, they have been in despair to receive any good in the Hereafter, just as the disbelievers have been in despair about those (buried) in graves (that they will not be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection).
