Ibn al-Jawzee رحمه الله said:

"Know that the first deception of Iblees against mankind is turning them away from knowledge, because knowledge is light. So if he extinguishes their lamps, he can cause them to grope in the dark as he wishes."

(Talbees Iblees, vol. 1, pg. 389)

Hudhayfah in al-Yamãn رضي الله عنه narrated that Allah's Messenger ﷺ said:
"Trials and tribulations (fitan) will be presented to the hearts of people [one after another] in the same way that a reed mat is woven stick by stick. Any heart that absorbs them will have a black spot form on it. Any heart that rejects them will have a white spot form on it. Thus, there will be two kinds of hearts: one is pure like a white gemstone; it will not be harmed by any trial as long as the heavens and earth remain. The other heart is black and dusty like an overturned vessel, neither recognizing good nor rejecting evil' but absorbed in its desire."?
'Just as water does not remain in an overturned vessel, likewise, goodness does not remain in the black heart.
(See al-Nawawi's explanation of Sahih Muslim)

Day 6 🕌

Think well of others and be kind
Imam ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله :
"The person who treats others kindly and thinks well of them, will find that his intention will remain true, he will feel at ease, his heart will be sound and Allah will protect him from evil and calamity."

An-Nur 24:40
أَوۡ كَظُلُمَٰتٍ فِى بَحۡرٍ لُّجِّىٍّ يَغۡشَىٰهُ مَوۡجٌ مِّن فَوۡقِهِۦ مَوۡجٌ مِّن فَوۡقِهِۦ سَحَابٌۚ ظُلُمَٰتٌۢ بَعۡضُهَا فَوۡقَ بَعۡضٍ إِذَآ أَخۡرَجَ يَدَهُۥ لَمۡ يَكَدۡ يَرَىٰهَاۗ وَمَن لَّمۡ يَجۡعَلِ ٱللَّهُ لَهُۥ نُورًا فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن نُّورٍ

Or [the state of a disbeliever] is like the darkness in a vast deep sea, overwhelmed with a great wave topped by a great wave, topped by dark clouds, darkness, one above another, if a man stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it! And he for whom Allah has not appointed light, for him there is no light.

It is more beloved to me to make purchases from an individual belonging to Ahlul Sunnah, even if it means paying more, over buying at a lower price from a Shi’a or any other disbelieving sect. Supporting the one who truly holds Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم in his heart is more beloved and noble to me, even at my own expense, over supporting someone who wages war on my brothers and sisters. The believers are but brothers, they should support and benefit each other in any way they can. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, support and grant victory to your brother, whether he is the oppressed or the oppressor. If he is facing oppression, stand by him and assist him in every possible way; if he is the one oppressing, guide him away from his oppression and injustices. Believers are akin to bricks in a skyscraper, each one crucial in supporting the others, working collectively to strengthen the Ummah and protect one another.

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, the best of the believers is the one most beneficial to his believing brothers.

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “Whoever relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, Allah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever helps ease one in difficulty, Allah will make it easy for him in this world and the Hereafter. Whoever conceals the faults of a Muslim, Allah will conceal his faults in this world and the Hereafter. Allah helps the servant as long as he helps his brother…” — Sahih Muslim

The believer who follows the Quran and Sunnah upon the methodology of the Sahabah is closer to you than your blood brother if he is not upon the same methodology.

لَّا تَجِدُ قَوْمًۭا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ يُوَآدُّونَ مَنْ حَآدَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَلَوْ كَانُوٓا۟ ءَابَآءَهُمْ أَوْ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ أَوْ إِخْوَٰنَهُمْ أَوْ عَشِيرَتَهُمْ ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ كَتَبَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلْإِيمَـٰنَ وَأَيَّدَهُم بِرُوحٍۢ مِّنْهُ ۖ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ جَنَّـٰتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا ۚ رَضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا۟ عَنْهُ ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ حِزْبُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ أَلَآ إِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ

You will never find a people who ˹truly˺ believe in Allah and the Last Day loyal to those who defy Allah and His Messenger, even if they were their parents, children, siblings, or extended family. For those ˹believers˺, Allah has instilled faith in their hearts and strengthened them with a spirit from Him. He will admit them into Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever. Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him. They are the party of Allah. Indeed, Allah’s party is bound to succeed.
— Surat al-Mujadilah: 22
