Necessity of fighting temptations
Bayan: The Necessity of Fighting Temptations (Post-1)
Narrated Abu Hurairah RA a hadith which means that,
hell is covered by the nafsani khwaahishat (wishes) and jannah, is covered by those which man considers difficult to do in this world
i.e this duniya is place of examination for man. so using ones ‘aqal’ one must try to pass this exam. On the other hand, if hell and heaven were shown clearly, then there would have been no exam.
If wishes are followed such that they are followed regardless of watching out if they are jaaiz or not, then this is a straight path leading towards hell.
In this way a human earns the hellfire (esp. nowadays), by spending money instead of arranging for stuff leading to jannah. This is a cover indeed, as explained.
Ya Ayyuhallazeena aamanu qu anfusakum wa ahleekum naara ! 66:6 Means: O you who believe, save yourselves and your families from a fire, the fuel of which are human beings ..
“Jo Aadmi aik dafa himmat karle, ke shahawat ke raste se apne aap ko bacha le, aur bazaahir pur mushaqat raste pe chal paray to inshallah wo jannat main jaye ga!”
“Ye aadat jo parr gayi hai, ke jo khwahish jo dil main janam le wo zarur puri ho, aur na ho toa insaan ghamgeen ho raha, pareshan ho raha hai, iss aadat ko khatam karo, kyunke ye jahannam ki taraf le janay wali aadat hai ye jannat mein le janay wala rasta nahin”
Anas RA narrates from RasulAllah SAW which means:
jab insan marr jata hai, aur qabristan le jaya jata, to teen cheezen murde ke sath jati hain, aik uske ghar walay (aziz rishtaydar), dusra uska koi maal (charpai janaza wagera), aur teesra uska amal, inmain do toa qabar ke baad wapas aa jati hain, aur teesra yaani amal wo agay jani wali hay. (saath janay waali cheez uska amal hai)
and a hadith says:…. ke murda janaazay se jaanay walon ki qadmon ki aahat sunta hai..
like some poet said:
shukria aye qabar tak puhanchaney walo shukria
ab akele hi chalen jayen ge is manzil se ham
kuch saath hai toa amal hai .. toa tawajju karo ke kuch samaan aage chala jaye.. wo bethe bethe nahin jaye ga.. kuch ta’at se, kuch akhirat ke zakheeray karne se .. na ke maal ke jama karne ki koshish se. yahan nafsani khwahishaat ki fikar ke bajaye.. kuch fikar karo ke kuch amal haat main le ke allah ke samne jao, ke jo jannat jo makruhaat (bazaahir mushkil kaamoan) main chupai gai ho wo hasil ho sake
