Who is really the true friend?
Sadly, people today have a very messed up perception of what a true friend (who loves you for Allāh’s sake) looks like.
They think it’s someone who will support you 24/7, whether you’re doing something makrūh or even Harām! They think it’s someone who will stay silent when you’re following the wrong opinion, and cheer you on in every choice you make (whether it’s good or bad). That’s not a friend, that’s an enemy, wallāhi.
Someone who truly loves you for the sake of Allāh will correct and advise you about every single fault you have and every mistake you make. They will forbid you from every evil. They will not comfort your desires, they will discipline your soul. They don’t care if you get offended (and if you do, that’s very concerning on your part), because pleasing Allāh is more beloved to them. Only someone who truly cares for your akhirah, would go out of their way to do that. This isn’t called attacking or bashing. It’s called Naseeha. And if you can’t accept that with good manners, humility, and husn dhan - then maybe you aren’t ready to have a true friend, who loves you only for Allāh’s sake.
Ibn Hazm (رحمه الله) said:
“Anyone who criticises you cares about your friendship. Anyone who makes light of your faults cares nothing about you."
[Al Akhlaq wa siyar]
May Allāh make us from amongst those who are worthy of having true friends - and from amongst those who get happy when they are corrected, humbled when they are advised, and always think the best about those who forbid them from evil.

“When Allah tests you, it is never to destroy you. Whenever He removes something from your possession, it is only to empty your hands for an even better gift.”
— Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه الله)

Sometimes the gift will be regarding dunya matters, like the birth of a child or marriage. But other times the gift is connected to the hereafter, like being honored with the ability to pray Tahajjud or being increased in guidance. And these are much greater. The best gift after every trial, is closeness to Allāh and gaining His love & pleasure. And this can only be attained through Sabr and being pleased with His decree.

Rights of Wife #3: Kind Treatment
Allāh says regarding wives: وَعَاشِرُوهُنَّبِالْمَعْرُوفِ
"And live with them in kindness." [An-Nisā']
Ibn Katheer says that "living with them in kindness" means saying kind words to them, treating them kindly and making your appearance appealing for them, as much as you can, just as you like the same from them. [Tafseer Ibn Katheer]
💠 This verse is general, and many rights can be extracted from it, as it encompasses multiple rights that a woman has over her husband. Before mentioning what 'kind treatment' entails, it's necessary for brothers to understand the fragility of a woman's nature, so that they be able to treat their wives with the proper compassion and consideration mentioned here. The fragility of the nature of the woman is pointed out in a Hadīth in which there was a camel-driver, who was called Anjasha with a good voice, and he would sing to lead the animals. He was leading the camels that the women were riding on, and the Messenger (ﷺ) approached him and said: "Woe to you Anjasha, go slowly while you are driving the mounts who carry vessels of glass (Al Qawāreer)."
According to scholars like al-Bukhari, al-Qurtubi, and al-Asqalani, this Hadīth points out both the physical and emotional delicacy and fragility of the woman's nature. They mentioned that the Hadīth can be understood in two ways:
1.) That he was instructing Anjasha to be careful in his driving the camels as leading them too fast could hurt the women or cause them to fall, due to their delicate build and nature.
2.) That he meant to instruct him regarding his singing, because women are emotionally fragile and sensitive and are easily moved by poetry and a nice voice, and this singing may bring Fitnah to their hearts.
💠 Forbearance and Coping With the Wife's Attitude
The husband should not react extremely in response to the wife's occasional annoyance or anger, nor should he keep it as a reason for grudge and retaliation later on. Instead he should show forbearance and patience and take it lightly, understanding that a woman's emotions are often due to other reasons out of her control (hormones, pregnancy, etc). (This is no excuse for women to intentionally not regulate themselves and their attitudes, but that's a topic for another time.) We see examples of this in the Sunnah, as in the following Hadīth narrated by A'ishah:
Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) said, " I know whether you are angry or pleased with me." I said, "How do you know that, Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ)?" He said, "When you are pleased, you say, "Yes, by the Lord of Muhammad,' but when you are angry, you say, 'No, by the Lord of Ibrahīm!' " I said, "Yes, I do not leave, except your name."
There are many ahadīth mentioning the manner of the Prophet (ﷺ) in dealing with the jealousy and anger of his wives, and how he would play it off with a smile or a light joke and treat the manner lightly and kindly to alleviate the situation. By treating the mood swings or the occasional outbursts of the wife in this manner, no feelings will be hurt, nor will there be any arguments, and the woman will slowly come to realize her mistake herself and the situation will be resolved. This is not to undermine the importance of discipline when needed, but rather to say that not all situations have to be treated too seriously, and forbearance and lightheartedness can prevent aggravation of many issues and can keep the wife's heart pleased with her husband.
💠 Understanding the Meaning of "Bent Rib"
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Treat women kindly, for woman was created from a bent rib, and the most crooked part of the rib is the top part, so treat women kindly.” [Bukhari]

This denoscription of the rib being "bent" indicates that the woman's nature is inherently different from the man's, and they will never fully coincide. Due to this difference, she will act and react to things differently than the man would, so the man must be patient and understanding in this regard and not expect her to act as he would in every situation. The meaning is that she will inevitably have some crookedness or shortcomings in her character. Ibn Hajar says that the specification of the top part of the rib is possibly a metaphor for the head of the woman, which encases her tongue from which harm comes, and her thinking faculties. From this it can be deduced that the main difference between men and women is in the way they think, approach & react to issues, and perceive things.
The Hadīth goes on: "If you attempt to straighten it you will break it, and if you leave it alone it will remain crooked; so act kindly towards women.”
Breaking it refers to divorce, meaning that if the man attempts to force the woman to act and become as he is, and to change her natural attitude that clashes with his, they will not last with each other and the marriage will inevitably fail.
Another narration is: "The woman was created from a rib and will not remain straight for you in any way. So, if you enjoy her, you enjoy her as she has some crookedness. And if you try to straighten her, you will break her, and breaking her is divorcing her." [Muslim & Tirmidhi]
So the man must understand that his wife will never be exactly as he wishes her to be in regards to her nature, and it is not possible for him to forcibly straighten her out. He should remain patient and understanding regarding this and not be overly critical in regards to their natural differences in perception/thinking and acting.
💠 Entertaining the Wife
Part of kind treatment to the wife is that the husband should be playful with the her, using lawful ways to keep her entertained and bring joy to her heart. This was a practice of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ with his wives, and many ahadīth give examples of the playful attitude he adopted with his women.
Ibn Katheer says "It was the practice of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺto be kind, cheerful, playful with his wives, compassionate, spending on them and laughing with them. The Messenger ﷺused to race with A'ishah, the Mother of the Faithful, as a means of kindness to her. A'ishah said, "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺraced with me and I won the race. This occurred before I gained weight, and afterwards I raced with him again, and he won that race. He said, "This [victory] is for that [victory]" When the Prophet ﷺwas at the home of one of his wives, sometimes all of his wives would meet there and eat together, and they would then go back to their homes. He and his wife would sleep in the same bed, he would remove his upper garment, sleeping in only his lower garment. The Prophet ﷺused to talk to the wife whose night it was, after praying 'Isha' and before he went to sleep.
Allāh said,
لَّقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ
(Indeed in the Messenger of Allah you have a good example to follow) [33:21].” [Tafseer Ibn Katheer]
Some examples from the Sunnah:
A'ishah reported: By Allāh, I remember the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) standing on the door of my apartment screening me with his mantle enabling me to see the sport of the Abyssinians as they played with their daggers in the mosque of the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ). He (the Holy Prophet) kept standing for my sake till I was satiated and then I went back; and thus you can well imagine how long a girl tender of age who is fond of sports (could have watched it). [Muslim]
It was narrated that A’ishah said: "The Prophet ﷺraced with me and I beat him." [Ibn Majah]
Narrated Abu 'Uthman: Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) sent 'Amr bin Al As as the commander of the troops of Dhat-us-Salasil. 'Amr bin Al- 'As said, "(On my return) I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, 'Which people do you love most?' He replied, "A’ishah." [Bukhari]
The Hadīth goes on: "If you attempt to straighten it you will break it, and if you leave it alone it will remain crooked; so act kindly towards women.”
Breaking it refers to divorce, meaning that if the man attempts to force the woman to act and become as he is, and to change her natural attitude that clashes with his, they will not last with each other and the marriage will inevitably fail.

Sidetracked in History is a short yet powerful article written by the noble Shaykh Ahmad Musā Jibrīl in 2012 (حفظه الله تعالى). It encompasses an important recurring theme in history that must be grasped by all those striving to be upon the Haqq (may Allah make us of them).
The very few who had the foresight to see what many were blind to, and take stands in the path of Allah in spite of being hounded to do otherwise, were reclassified and turned aside by the masses. They risked, and lost everything, for Allah.
Their stories should be reflected upon. The knowledgeable are not classified as such based on advertisements, looks, followers, or popularity. The knowledgable are those who adhere to their knowledge and have solidarity to it, and they define what it means to live a life upon Tawheed - a Ghareeb.
May Allah have mercy upon them all, and raise their ranks, and our beloved Shaykh Ahmad Jibrīl’s rank to Firdaws.

The affair of the believer is truly strange, but what a beautiful strangeness it is
When inflicted with the harshest of trials and the most extended periods of tribulations, most of mankind falls into despair and grief, hating the trial and lamenting at being struck by it.
But the believer is so different. The believer experiences the worst of days and passes through the darkest of nights that seemingly have no end, and although his heart feels all the natural grief and pain that a human would experience, in the depths of his heart there is a strange breeze of relief, happiness, and contentment.
Relief knowing that his Lord didn’t leave him to live an easy life as He left his enemies to live, in knowing that if this Dunya has become a troubling abode for him, that he is not from those whom his Lord has left in peace to exceed in their transgressions, only to punish in the hereafter with the severest of punishments.
Happiness in knowing that his Lord is testing him because He loves him, and in knowing that his sins are being forgiven and his ranks are being raised.
And contentment in knowing that this was the decree of his Lord for him specifically that he could never avert from himself, and that when his Lord takes something, He gives better, and in knowing that every trial that afflicts him, it harms him once, but it benefits him tenfold the amount of that which it harmed him.
He raises his hands to Allāh while his eyes brim with tears but his heart smiles... because he knows that even if he gains nothing out of these trials except that his heart becomes fully reliant upon his Lord and he draws near to him, that those are blessings worth more than the world and everything it contains.
Oh Lord, if you remove our burdens from us, we are pleased, and if you increase them, we only increase in our pleasure. We can bear patiently the difficulties of this life so long as we aren’t faced with any in the hereafter.

It’s amazing how some parents will prevent and criticize their children for practicing the Deen and striving in Allāh’s path, while not realizing that their children strive for the sake of Allāh, in hopes that one day He will allow them to intercede for their parents and take them by the hand into Jannah.
“Why must you always speak when you see evil? You’re offending our relatives.”
“How dare you advise me regarding the Deen when you were just born yesterday?”
“Shave/shorten your beard. You look so old fashioned.”
“Remove your Niqāb.”
“Marry this Fāsiq.”
“How could you be so stupid to reject such a good job offer? Everyone earns Harām, it’s unavoidable!”
SubhanAllah, here we have the Qur’an commanding us to ask Allāh for righteous descendants, and here we have parents, who claim to follow this Book, that strive to pull their children away from righteousness and Taqwa at any chance they see it. Truly, they live for this life and not the hereafter, while the hereafter is better and more lasting.
For some parents, it’s not enough that they should be defiantly disobedient to Allāh by themselves, they want it to be a tradition carried on by their progeny!
May Allāh forgive us and guide us.
