    and vice versa,


    فليس له من حلٍ إلا الزواج

    لقول النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

      حكم الشتم في السر
      Reviling Someone in Secret



      السب والشتم إما أن يكون بوجه حق ، أو بغير وجه حق :
      Reviling and impugning may be either justifiable or unjustifiable



      إن كان بحق :
      If it is justifiable,

      كأن يقع على المسلم ظُلمٌ ظاهر ،
      such as if a Muslim is wronged in an obvious manner,


      وأذى بالغ لا يمتري فيه أحد :
      or is harmed in a way that cannot be denied,

      فليس على مَن دفع عن نفسه الظلم والعدوان حرج
      then there is nothing wrong with warding off harm and enmity from oneself


      سرا كان الشتم أو جهرا ،


      whether that is done secretly or openly,


      من غير اعتداء ولا تجاوز ،
      without transgressing or overstepping the mark,

      وإن كان الأولى والأفضل ألا يفعل ذلك .
      although it is better not to do that


      يقول الله تعالى :

      ( لَاْ يُحِبُّ اللّهُ الْجَهْرَ بِالسُّوءِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ
      “Allah does not like that the evil should be uttered in public

      إِلاَّ مَنْ ظُلِمَ
      except by him who has been wronged

      وَكَانَ اللَّهُ سَمِيْعًا عَلِيْمًا )
      And Allah is Ever All‑Hearer, All‑Knower”à



      يبغض ذلك ، ويمقته ، ويعاقب عليه ،

      He hates that, dislikes it and punishes for it

      ويشمل ذلك جميع الأقوال السيئة
      That includes all bad words

      التي تسوء وتحزن :
      that may cause hurt and make people sad,

      كالشتم ، والقذف ، والسب ونحو ذلك ،
      such as reviling, slandering, impugning and so on

      فإن ذلك كله من المنهي عنه الذي يبغضه الله

      All of that comes under the heading of forbidden things that Allah hates

      ويدل مفهومها أنه يحب الحسن من القول :
      What is implied is that Allah loves good kinds of speech

      كالذكر ، والكلام الطيب الليِّن .
      such as His remembrance and kind and gentle words.


      وقوله : ( إِلا مَن ظُلِمَ )

      “except by him who has been wronged

      فإنه يجوز له أن يدعو على من ظلمه
      it is permissible for him to pray against the one who has wronged him,

      ويتشكى منه ،
      and to make a complaint about him

      ويجهر بالسوء لمن جهر له به ،
      He may speak out openly against the one who uttered evil against him publicly,


      من غير أن يكذب عليه ،
      without telling lies about him


      ولا يزيد على مظلمته ،
      and without going any further in wrongdoing than he did

      ولا يتعدى بشتمه غير ظالمه ،

      And he should not overstep the mark
      and revile anyone other than the one who wronged him

      ومع ذلك فعفوه وعدم مقابلته أولى

      Yet despite that, forgiving him and not responding in kind is preferable,

      كما قال تعالى :


      ( فَمَنْ عَفَا وَأَصْلَحَ فَأَجْرُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ )
      ç“but whoever forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is with Allah” ç




      وقال تعالى :

      ( وَلَمَنِ انْتَصَرَ بَعْدَ ظُلْمِهِ
      “And indeed whosoever takes revenge after he has suffered wrong,

      فَأُوْلئِكَ مَا عَلَيْهِم مِّن سَبِيْلٍ ،
      for such there is no way (of blame) against them
      إِنَّمَا السَّبِيلُ عَلَىْ الّذِيْنَ يَظْلِمُونَ النَّاسَ
      The way (of blame) is only against those who oppress men

      وَيَبْغُونَ فِيْ الْأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقّ
      and rebel in the earth without justification;

      ، أُوْلئِكَ لَهُم عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ )
      for such there will be a painful tormentӍ



      عنه أنّ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال :

      (الْمُسْتَبَّانِ مَا قَالَا فَعَلَى الْبَادِئِ، مَا لَمْ يَعْتَدِ الْمَظْلُومُ )
      “When two people revile one another, the sin of what they say is on the one who started it, so long as the one who is wronged does not overstep the mark.”ç



      وخير ما دعا به المظلوم على الظالم ،
      The best supplication that the one who is wronged may offer concerning the wrongdoer

      ( الَّلهُمّ أَصْلِحْ لِيْ سَمْعِي وَبَصَرِيْ ،
      “O Allah, correct my hearing and my sight,

      وَاجْعَلْهُمَا الوَارِثَيْنِ مِنّي ،
      and allow me to retain them until I die


      وَانصُرنِي عَلَى مَنْ ظَلَمَنِي ،
      Lead me to victory over those who have done me injustice

      وَأَرِنِي مِنْهُ ثَأْرِي )
      and allow me to see vengeance.” ç



      " إذا سب إنسانٌ إنسانا
      If one person reviles another,

      جاز للمسبوب أن يسب الساب
      it is permissible for the one who was reviled to revile him back

      بقدر ما سبه ،
      as much as he reviled him,


      لقوله تعالى :

      ( وجزاء سيئة سيئة مثلها ) ،

      “The recompense for an evil is an evil like thereof”


      ولا يجوز أن يسب أباه ولا أمه ،


      It is not permissible for him to revile his father or mother

      ( دونك فانتصري )
      “You should say something to defend yourself.

      فأقبلت عليها حتى يبس ريقها في فيها ،
      So I turned on her, until I saw that her mouth had become dry,

      وإنما يجوز السب بما ليس كذبا ولا قذفا ،
      Rather all that is permitted is reviling which does not involve lying or slander,

      كقوله : يا ظالم ، يا أحمق ،
      “O wrongdoer” or “O fool”,

      لأن أحدا لا يكاد ينفك عن ذلك ،
      because hardly anyone is free from these descriptions

      وإذا انتصر بسبه
      Once a person has stood up to defend himself by reviling the one who reviled him,

      فقد استوفى ظلامته ،
      then the matter is settled


      وبرئ الأول من حقه ،
      and the first person is in the clear,

      وبقي عليه إثم الابتداء ،
      but he has the sin of initiating the exchange

      أو الإثم لحق الله تعالى

      and the sin of transgressing the limits set by Allah


      والأولى والأكمل والأفضل هو العفو والصفح والتجاوز ،
      But it is far better and closer to perfection to forgive, pardon and overlook,


      لعل الله أن يتجاوز عنا يوم القيامة ،

      in the hope that Allah will pardon us on the Day of Resurrection,


      فالجزاء من جنس العمل
      for the recompense will fit the nature of the deed



      يقول الله عز وجل :

      ( وَجَزَاء سَيِّئَةٍ سَيِّئَةٌ مِّثْلُهَا
      “The recompense for an evil is an evil like thereof;

      فَمَنْ عَفَا وَأَصْلَحَ
      but whoever forgives and makes reconciliation,


      فَأَجْرُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ
      his reward is with Allah

      إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظَّالِمِينَ )
      Verily, He likes not the oppressors, polytheists, and wrongdoers


      وقال صلى الله عليه وسلم :

      ( يَا عُقبَةَ بنَ عَامِر :
      “O ‘Uqbah ibn ‘Aamir,

      صِلْ مَنْ قَطَعَكَ ،
      uphold ties with those who cut you off,

      وَأَعْطِ مَنْ حَرَمَكَ ،
      give to those who withhold from you,

      وَاعْفُ عَمَّن ظَلَمَكَ )
      and forgive those who wrong you.Ӎ


      وعنْ عائشة رضي الله عنْها قالت :

      ( سُرِقَتْ مِلْحفةٌ لَهَا ،
      a blanket of hers was stolen,

      فَجَعَلَتْ تَدْعُو عَلَى مَن سَرَقَهَا ،
      and she started to pray against the one who had stolen it

      فَجَعَلَ النَّبيّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يقولُ : لَاْ تُسَبِّخِي عَنْهُ )

      The Prophet said: Do not reduce his burden of sin by making supplicating against him



      قال أبو داود : لا تسبخي : أي : لا تخففي عنه .





      كما جاء من الآثار عن التابعين
      There are also reports from the successors

      ما يدلّ على فضيلة العفو
      that point to the superiority of forgiving

      والصفح في الدنيا :
      and overlooking in this world


      قال الهيثم بن معاوية :

      " من ظُلِمَ فلمْ ينتصرْ بيدٍ ولا لسانٍ ،
      Whoever is wronged and does not retaliate in word or deed,

      ولم يحقدْ بقلبٍ ،
      and does not bear resentment in his heart,


      فذاك يضيء نوره في الناس "
      that will be his light among people



      أما إن وقع السب والشتم بغير وجه حق ،
      If the reviling and impugning is done unlawfully, i.e.,


      وإنما كرها شخصيا
      as a result of personal resentment


      أو بغضا يدفع إليه الحسد ،
      or hatred based on malicious envy


      أو استقباح الهيئة أو النسب أو التصرف أو غير ذلك
      or because one dislikes a person’s appearance,
      lineage, conduct or anything else



      مما يقع بسببه الناسُ في السب والشتم :
      that results in people reviling and insulting others,

      فذلك من المحرمات الظاهرة ،
      this is something that is clearly forbidden


      ومن سقطات اللسان

      and comes under the heading of slips of the tongue


      التي تأكل الحسنات ،
      that consume (i.e., wipe out) good deeds

      وتأتي بالسيئات ،
      and incur punishment for bad deeds,

      سواء كان في السر أو في العلن
      whether it is done secretly or openly


      عن عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال :

      ( سِبَابُ الْمُسْلِمِ فُسُوقٌ وَقِتَالُهُ كُفْرٌ )
      à“Insulting a Muslim is an evil action and fighting him is disbelief/denial



      وعنه أيضا رضي الله عنه أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال :

      ( لَيْسَ الْمُؤْمِنُ بِالطَّعَّانِ وَلَا اللَّعَّانِ وَلَا الْفَاحِشِ وَلَا الْبَذِيءِ )
      The believer is not given to insulting, cursing a great deal, obscene talk or foul speech



      يقول المباركفوري رحمه الله :

      " قوله : ( ليس المؤمن ) أي : الكامل .
      “The believer” means: the perfect believer


      ( بالطعان ) أي : عيَّاباً الناس .
      à“is not given to insulting” i.e., criticizing people


      ( ولا اللعان ) ولعل اختيار صيغة المبالغة فيها
      “or cursing a great deal” i.e., cursing excessively,

      لأن الكامل قل أن يخلو عن المنقصة بالكلية .
      because the perfect believer can hardly be free from some shortcomings





      ( ولا البذيء ) قال القاري :

      هو الذي لا حياء له
      this refers to the one who has no shame



      فإذا وقع السب في القلب
      If the reviling or impugning occurs in one’s heart or mind,

      كحديث نفس ،
      such as a thought that crosses the mind

      ولم يقصده صاحبه ، ولم ينطق به ،

      without one meaning it to or uttering it out loud –

      إنما هي بعض الوساوس
      rather it is some passing thought or whispers

      التي تراوده في شتم فلان وعلان ،
      that may come to mind about reviling so and so,


      ولكنه لا يمتثل لها ولا يعقد العزم عليها

      but he does not pay attention to it or resolve to do it

      ، فتلك أحاديث نفس وخواطر
      then this comes under the heading of passing thoughts

      معفو عنها بإذن الله ،
      that are forgiven,


      لقول النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم :

      ( إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَجَاوَزَ عَنْ أُمَّتِي مَا حَدَّثَتْ بِهِ أَنْفُسَهَا

      “Allah has forgiven my followers for what crosses their minds

      مَا لَمْ تَعْمَلْ أَوْ تَتَكَلَّمْ )
      so long as they do not act upon it or speak of it


      وهذا من أعمال القلب التي يؤاخذ العبد بمثلها .

      they may come under the heading of deeds of the heart for which a person will be brought to account


      قال القاسمي رحمه الله :

      " وأما أثره ـ أي : الغضب ـ في القلب :
      As for the effects of anger on the heart,

      فهذه ثمرة الغضب المفرط
      these are the fruits of excessive anger

      " اعلم أن سوء الظن حرام
      It should be noted that thinking bad things is impermissible


      مثل سوء القول ؛
      , just like saying bad things

      فكما يحرم عليك أن تحدث غيرك بلسانك بمساويء الغير ،
      Just as it is impermissible for you to say bad things about another person,




      وتسيء الظن بأخيك .
      and think negatively of him

      ولست أعني به إلا عقد القلب
      What I mean is when one forms a solid idea


      وحكمه على غيره بالسوء ،
      and decides that another person is bad and evil

      فأما الخواطر وحديث النفس فهو معفو عنه ... ،
      As for passing thoughts, they are forgiven

        Types of Speech to Refrain from





        ينبغي للمسلم أن يحفظ لسانه

        The Muslim has to control his tongue

        وجاء في الحديث الأمر بالإمساك عن الخوض في أشياء معينة ؛
        The hadeeth enjoins refraining from indulging in specific things,


        لأن ذلك مما لا يفيد الإنسان شيئاً
        because this is something that is of no benefit to a person,

        بل يضره ضرراً عظيماً
        and indeed it may cause him a great deal of harm

        في دينه ودنياه .
        in his spiritual and worldly affairs

        and merciful among themselves

        تراهم ركَّعا سجَّداً

        You see them bowing and falling down prostrate in prayer


        يبتغون فضلاً من الله ورضواناً
        seeking bounty from Allah and (His) good pleasure

        سيماهم في وجوههم
        The mark of them (i.e. of their faith) is on their faces (foreheads) 9

        من أثر السجود )

        from the traces of prostration during prayers



        فهذا وصف الله لهم في كتابه
        This is how Allah has described them in His Book,


        فلله درهم ما أعدلهم وما أحسنهم وأعظمهم
        so no doubt they are of just character and are the best and greatest of mankind

        فلا يبغضهم إلا منافق ولا يحبهم إلا مؤمن
        So no one hates them but a hypocrite and no one loves them but a believer


        قال شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية رحمه الله تعالى :

        ومن أصول أهل السنة والجماعة :

        “One of the basic principles of followers of prophetic tradition

        سلامة قلوبهم وألسنتهم لأصحاب رسول الله

        is that they think and say nothing to criticize the Companions of the Messenger of Allah


        كما وصفهم الله بذلك في قوله :

        ( والذين جاءوا من بعدهم يقولون
        And those who came after them say:à


        ربنا اغفر لنا ولإخواننا الذين سبقونا بالإيمان
        Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded us in faith,

        ولا تجعل في قلوبنا غِلاًّ للذين آمنوا
        and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed


        ربنا إنك رؤوف رحيم )
        Our Lord! You are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful




        " لا تسبوا أصحابي
        ‘Do not curse my Companions,


        فوالذي نفسي بيده
        for by the One in Whose hand is my soul,

        لو أنفق أحدكم مثل أحُدٍ ذهباً
        if any one of you were to spend the equivalent of Mount Uhud in gold,

        ما بلغ مُدَّ أحدهم ولا نصيفه "
        he would not reach the status of one of them, nor even come half way





        وقال أبو زرعة رحمه الله :

        إذا رأيت الرجل ينتقص أحداً من الصحابة
        If you see a man criticizing any one of the Companions


        فاعلم أنَّه زنديق
        then know that he is a heretic,


        وما أدى إلينا ذلك كله إلا الصحابة
        and no one conveyed all of that to us but the Companions

        فمن جرحهم

        So whoever criticizes them

        إنما أراد إبطال الكتاب والسنة
        means, in effect, to say that the Quran and prophetic teachings are false,

        فيكون الجرح به أليق
        so it is more appropriate that he should be criticized

        والحكم عليه بالزندقة والضلال أقوم وأحق
        and ruled to be a heretic who is misguided



        الإمساك عن الكلام في النجوم

        refraining from speaking about the stars,

        الاهتداء بها على أشياء مغيبات
        is seeking guidance by the stars concerning matters that are unseen,

        كما كان يفعله أهل الجاهلية الكهنة
        as the people of the pre-Islamic days of ignorance used to do

        عن طريق التنجيم
        by means of astrology,

        وهو الاستدلال بالأحوال الفلكية على الحوادث الأرضية

        such as using the movement of heavenly bodies to indicate when certain earthly events would occur,

        كأوقات هبوب الريح أو مجيء المطر وتغير الأسعار
        such as the blowing of the wind, rainfall, changes in prices,




        الإمساك عن الكلام في القدر
        refraining from speaking about the divine decree


        وأصل القدر سر الله تعالى في خلقه ،
        “The divine decree is a secret known which Allah has hidden from His creation

        والتعمق والنظر في ذلك ذريعة الخذلان ،
        Pursuing such matters only leads to failure

        وسلم الحرمان ، ودرجة الطغيان ،
        and deprivation of the mercy of Allah, and it leads to injustice,


        فالحذر كل الحذر من ذلك نظراً وفكراً ووسوسةً ،
        so beware of looking into the matter, thinking about it and wondering about it


        فإن الله تعالى طوى علم القدر عن أنامه

        Allah has kept knowledge of His decree from His slaves,

        ، ونهاهم عن مرامه ،
        and has forbidden them to pursue the matter


        كما قال تعالى في كتابه :


        ( لا يسأل عما يفعل وهم يسألون )
        ‘He cannot be questioned as to what He does, while they will be questioned.’à

        فمن سأل لِمَ فعل ؟ فقد رد حكم الكتاب ،
        So whoever questions what Allah does has rejected the ruling of the Book,

        ويعلم أن ما أصابه لم يكن ليخطئه ،
        and know that whatever happens to him could never have missed him,

        وما أخطأه لم يكن ليصيبه.
        and what misses him could never have happened to him

        والكلام في هذا الباب طويل ،

        There is a lot that may be said on this topic

        ورحم الله امرءاً آمن بقضاء الله وقدره
        May Allah bless the man who believes in the will and decree of Allah

          يُطلق لفظ " الجاهلية " ويُراد به فترة ما قبل بعثة النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
          The word Jahiliyyah is used to refer to the period before the coming of the Prophet

          ، وهي نسبة لأمرين اثنين يجتمعان في هذه الحقبة ،
          It refers to two things that are combined in this period:

          وهما : الجهل ، والجهالة – أي : السفاهة
          ignorance and foolishness


          ولفظ الجاهلية لفظ مذموم ،
          The word ignorance is a blameworthy word

          ويكفي الجهل والجهالة سوءً أن يتبرأ منهما الإنسان
          Ignorance and foolishness together are sufficient for a person to disavow himself of them,

          ولو كان من أهلهما ،
          even if he has these attributes,

          ويكفي العلم والرشد فخراً أن ينتسب إليهما أهلهما ،
          and knowledge and guidance are sufficient for a person to feel proud of,


          ولو كان من غير أهلهما .
          if he has these attributes, and even if he does not


          ما كان عليه العرب قبل الإسلام من الجهالة ، والضلالة .
          the ways of the Arabs before Islam, namely foolishness and misguidance


          ما قبل البعثة ، سُمُّوا به لفرط جهلهم
          they called it that because of the extent of their ignorance


          لأن الناس كانوا فيها على جهل عظيم‏ ،‏
          because at that time the people’s ignorance was great;

          فجهلهم شامل للجهل في حقوق الله ، وحقوق عباده
          it included ignorance both of the rights of Allah and the rights of His slaves

          والنياحة من أمر الجاهلية ،
          Wailing is an act of ignorance

          ولابد أن تكون في هذه الأمة ،
          which inevitably continues to exist among this nation

          وإنما كانت من أمر الجاهلية
          although it is something that belongs to the ignorance ,


          إما من الجهل الذي هو ضد العلم
          either because of ignorance which is the opposite of knowledge,


          أو من الجهالة التي هي السفه ، وهي ضد الحكمة
          or because of foolishness which is the opposite of wisdom



          فأنار الله تعالى به الكون ،
          and Allah filled the world with light because of him,


          وأخرجهم من الظلمات إلى النور ،
          and brought people forth from darkness into light

          فبدَّد الله به ظلمات الجهل
          By means of him, Allah dispelled the darkness of ignorance

          وانتهى ببعثته صلى الله عليه وسلم عهد الجاهلية ،

          With his coming, the era of ignorance ended,

          ولكن هل رُفعت الجاهلية عن الأمكنة كلها ، وفي جميع الأزمنة ؟!
          but has ignorance disappeared from all places and all eras?à

          بالطبع لا ،
          Of course not

          ولا نزعها عن جميع المجتمعات ـ أيضا ـ ،
          but we cannot say that all societies are free of ignorance either

          فما تزال بعض المجتمعات تعيش في مستنقعات الجاهلية ،

          Some societies are still living in the depths of ignorance ,
          فلا يرفع عنها هذا الوصف ،
          so they are not free of this attribute

          وأما من استنار بنور الإسلام من المجتمعات
          But the societies on which the light of Islam has shone

          فلا يجوز وصفها بهذا اللفظ ،
          cannot be described in these terms,

          ولو حصل تقصير في بعض جوانب الإسلام منها
          and even if they are falling short in some aspects of Islam

          فهذا لا يبيح وصفها بالجاهلية ،
          they cannot be described as ignorant


          وعلى هذا التفصيل اتفقت كلمة العلماء المحققين
          The scholars are agreed on this point






          فقوله في هذا الحديث : ( ومبتغ في الإسلام سنَّة جاهلية )

          “Someone who tries to follow an ignorant way after becoming Muslim.” 9







          بيَّن العلامة ما في هذا التعبير منْ تسمُّحٍ ، ،
          The great scholar said that this phrase involves exaggeration

          وغضٍّ من ظهور الإسلام على الدِّين كله
          and overlooking the fact that Islam prevailed over all other religions


          لا تخلو من مبالغة في وصف القرن الحالي
          is not free of exaggeration about the current century


          وإن كان قد دخل فيه ما ليس منه :

          even though it has been infiltrated by things that are not part of it,

          فهم كانوا وثنيين ، وكانوا في ضلال مبين ،

          they were idolaters, they were clearly misguided,

          فهي أديان محرفة ،
          which are distorted religions


          لم يبق في ذلك الزمان دين خالص منزه عن التغيير والتبديل
          no pure religion left that had not been changed and altered



          وليس الأمر كذلك في قرننا هذا
          But that is not the case in the present era,

          ، ما دام أن الله تبارك وتعالى قد منَّ على العرب أولاً ، ثم على سائر الناس ثانياً
          because Allah blessed the Arabs first, then the rest of mankind,


          وتعهد الله عز وجل بحفظ شريعته
          and Allah has promised to preserve this religion


          وإن كان سيصيبها شيء من الانحراف الذي أصاب الأُمم من قبلهم
          although it would be faced with some deviation as befell the nations before it



          ( لتتبعن سَنَن من قبلكم شبراً بشبر ،
          “You will certainly follow the ways of those who came before you hand span by hand span,


          وذراعاً بذراع ،
          cubit by cubit,


          حتى لو دخلوا جحر ضب لدخلتموه
          to the extent that if they entered the hole of a lizard, you will enter it too


          سينحرفون إلى حد كبير،
          would deviate to a large extent


          ويقلدون اليهود والنصارى في ذلك الانحراف ،
          and they would imitate the Jews and Christians in that deviation,

          قد بشَّر أتباعه بأنهم سيبقون على خطه الذي رسمه لهم
          gave his followers the glad tidings that they would continue to follow the line that he drew for them



          ( لا تزال طائفة من أُمتي ظاهرين على الحق
          A group of my nation will continue to prevail adhering to the truth

          لا يضرهم من خالفهم
          and they will not be harmed by those who oppose them,


          حتى يأتي أمر الله )
          until the decree of Allah comes to pass



          فهي أبعد ما تكون عن الجاهلية القديمة أو الحديثة ؛
          is far removed from the ignorance of the past or present

          قد يُوهم الناس بأن الإسلام كله قد انحرف انحرافاً كليّاً ،
          this may give the impression that all of Islam has deviated completely





          ( قَاتِلُوا الَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلا بِالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ
          “Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allaah, (2) nor in the Last Day,

          وَلا يُحَرِّمُونَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ
          (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah
          and His Messenger (Muhammad), (4)9

          وَلا يَدِينُونَ دِينَ الْحَقِّ
          and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth


          مِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ
          among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians),9

          حَتَّى يُعْطُوا الْجِزْيَةَ عَنْ يَدٍ وَهُمْ صَاغِرُونَ )

          until they pay the Jizyah (a tax) with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued




          ( إن الإسلام بدأ غريباً وسيعود غريباً فطوبي للغرباء ... )
          “Islam began as something strange and will go back to being something strange so glad tidings to the strangers.” 0



          ( هم الذين يُصلحون ما أفسد الناس من سنَّتي من بعدي )
          The ones who will revive what the people neglect of my prophetic teachings after I am gone




          قد أصابه شيء من التحمس الزائد للإسلام في سبيل توضيحه للناس ،
          he may have been somewhat over-zealous in the way in which he explained Islam to people


          ولعل عذره في ذلك أنه كان يكتب بلغة أدبية ؛
          Perhaps his excuse for doing so may be that he was writing in a literary style


          وبعبارات كلها قوية
          and with phrases all of which are strongly worded


          تحيي في نفوس المؤمنين الثقة بدينهم وإيمانهم
          and instill in the hearts of believers confidence in their religion and faith

          ، فهو من هذه الخلفية في الواقع قد جدّد دعوة الإسلام في قلوب الشباب ،
          In that sense he did indeed renew the call of Islam in the hearts of the youth


          لم يساعده وقته على أن يحرر فكره من بعض المسائل التي كان يكتب حولها أو يتحدث فيها ،
          he did not have the time to examine thoroughly some of the issues that he wrote about,

          لا يخلو من شيء من المبالغة

          not free from some element of exaggeration

          التي تدعو إلى هضم حق الطائفة المنصورة ،
          which leads to undermining the group that is still prevailing and adhering to the truth



          وقال صلى الله عليه وسلم :


          ( أربع في أمتي من أمر الجاهلية لا يتركونهن :


          الفخر في الأحساب ، والطعن في الأنساب ، والاستسقاء بالنجوم ، والنياحة )
          pride in one’s forefathers, slandering lineages, seeking rain by the stars and wailing




          لا يجوز للمسلم أن ينظر للمجتمعات الإسلامية بعين الكبر في نفسه ،
          It is not permissible for the Muslim to regard Muslim societies with a sense of arrogance


          والاحتقار لهم ،
          or to look down on them

          ومن ذلك : تعميم الحكم بالجهل والانحراف والهلاك
          That includes regarding all of them as ignorant, deviant and doomed
          عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :

          ( إِذَا قَالَ الرَّجُلُ هَلَكَ النَّاسُ فَهُوَ أَهْلَكُهُمْ )
          If a man says ‘the people are doomed,’ he is the one who caused their doom



          أن يقولها الرجل احتقاراً للناس ،
          when a man says this by way of looking down on them

          وإزراء عليهم ،
          and showing contempt towards them,

          وإعجاباً بنفسه ،
          and expressing self-admiration


          وأما إذا قال ذلك تأسفاً ، وتحزناً ،
          But if he says that out of sorrow and regret,

          وخوفاً عليهم
          and out of fear for them

          لقبح ما يرى من أعمالهم :
          because of what he sees of their reprehensible actions,

          فليس ممن عني بهذا الحديث ،
          then he is not one of those referred to in this hadeeth

          راضياً عن نفسه ، معجباً بها ،
          is pleased with himself and admires himself,


          حاسداً لمن فوقه ،
          and he is envious of those who are above him

          محتقراً لمن دونه ،
          and scornful of those who are below him,

          ويكون في الوجه الثاني ماقتاً لنفسه ، موبخاً لها

          whereas in the second case he is scolding and rebuking himself

              O my Lord! Prison is dearer to me than that to which they invite me.

              وَإِلاَّ تَصْرِفْ عَنِّي كَيْدَهُنَّ أَصْبُ إِلَيْهِنَّ
              Unless You turn away their plot from me, I will feel inclined towards them


              وَأَكُن مِّنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ
              and be one
              of the ignorant’

              فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُ رَبُّهُ

              so his Lord answered his invocation


              فَصَرَفَ عَنْهُ كَيْدَهُنَّ
              and turned away from him their plot

                  استغاثة من أم كان ابنها مستقيماً
                  A plea for help from a mother whose son was righteous

                  أرجو أن يتسع صدرك لاستغاثتي في مصيبتي
                  I hope that you will have the patience to listen to my plea for help regarding the calamity that has befallen me


                  فالابن الكبير مهندس مرموق ،
                  The oldest son is a high-level engineer;


                  وطموح جدّاً ، وذكي جدّاً ،
                  he is very ambitious and very smart,


                  ولكن للأسف فوجئنا به يكره الدين ،
                  but sadly we were shocked to find out that he dislikes religion

                  والتزاماته ، وتكاليفه الشرعية ،
                  and religious commitment,
                  and the obligations enjoined by Islam


                  ويتهمنا بأننا شاذون عن المجتمع ؛
                  He has accused us of being weird in social terms


                  لحرصنا على عدم الاختلاط ،
                  because we are careful to avoid mixed gatherings،

                  وبدأ بإنكار السنَّة ، والتهكم على أوامر الدين ،
                  He has begun to deny the sunnah and to ridicule religious commands,


                  وأتم كل هذا ،
                  and he is suspicious of all that

                  وكانت الطامة الكبرى عندما اصطحبناه للعمرة


                  The greatest calamity occurred when we took him with us for ‘umrah



                  عندهم خبرة ودراية بالرد على الشبهات
                  who have experience and knowledge in refuting specious arguments


                  ولا أشيع هذا الأمر ، وهذا أمر يخصني ،
                  I do not tell people about this because it is a private matter,


                  وأنا الذي سأحاسب

                  لأن الناس تنخدع بنا كملتزمين

                    نسأل الله تعالى أن يُعظم لكم المثوبة ،
                    We ask Allah, may He be exalted, to increase your reward

                    we sense that you have done what Allah, may He be exalted, enjoined upon you with regard to the trust with which He entrusted you




                    ورضاه لنفسه بطريق الانحراف والضلال والإلحاد :
                    and has chosen for himself the path of deviation, misguidance and atheism,


                    لا ينبغي أن يسبب لكم قلقاً في أنكم مقصرون ،
                    should not make you feel anxious or guilty,

                    the ones who have fallen short with regard to themselves

                    فلا تلتفتوا لوساوس الشيطان ،
                    So do not pay any attention to the whispers of the devil


                    ولا يصدنكم كلام ابنكم عن الاستمرار في التربية الإسلامية لأولادكم،
                    and do not let what your son said bar you from continuing in your efforts to give your children a good Islamic upbringing

                    فعاقبهما الله ، وكانا من المغرَقين
                    so Allah punished them and they were among those who drowned

                      أَكَانَ لِلنَّاسِ عَجَبًا أَنْ أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِّنْهُمْ

                      Have the people been amazed that We revealed [revelation] to a man from among them
                      Is it wonder for mankind that We have sent Our Inspiration to a man from among themselves
                      Is it a wonder for mankind that We have inspired a man among them
                      Is it a matter of wonderment to men that We have sent Our inspiration to a man from among themselves?
                      What! is it a wonder to the people that We revealed to a man from among themselves,
                      Was it a wonder to mankind that We revealed to a man from (among) them,
                      Does it seem strange to people that We reveal to a man from among them,
                      Was it to the people astonishment/surprise that We inspired/transmitted to a man from them
                      Are the people astonished that a man who is one of them
                      Why should it seem strange to mankind that We sent revelations to a mortal among them
                      Are people amazed that We have sent to a man among them
                      Does it seem odd to these people that We have revealed to a man from among themselves

                      وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ أَخَذَتْهُ الْعِزَّةُ بِالإِثْمِ فَحَسْبُهُ جَهَنَّمُ وَلَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ

                      And when it is said to him, “Fear Allah,” pride in the sin takes hold of him. Sufficient for him is Hellfire, and how wretched is the resting place.


                      أَخَذَتْهُ الْعِزَّةُ بِالْإِثْمِ
                      pride in the sin takes hold of him
                      he is led by arrogance to (more) crime
                      pride taketh him to sin
                      pride carries him off to sin
                      vainglory seizes and thrusts him toward (greater) sin
                      vain pride holds him to sin
                      The glory/might took him with the sin/crime
                      his arrogance leads him to more sin;
                      sinful pride prevents them from paying heed to such advice
                      then pride leads him to sin
                      he becomes more resolute in committing sin
                      he is seized by pride which drives him to wrongdoing
                      conceit seizes him sinfully
                      egotism takes him in his sin

                      لَا تَثْرِيبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ
                      No blame will there be upon you today
                      No reproach on you this day

                      and never give up hope of Allah’s Mercy
                      and despair not of the Spirit of Allah

                      He said, “My Lord, how will I have a boy when my wife has been barren and I have reached extreme old age?”

                      وقد بلغت من الكبر عتيا
                      and I have reached the extreme old age.”
                      and I have reached infirm old age?
                      and I have grown quite decrepit from old age?”
                      and I myself have reached indeed the extreme degree of old age?
                      I have already reached infirmity in old age?”
                      and I have (already) reached the extreme (limit of) old age?´
                      and I had reached from the old age exceeding the limit?”
                      and I am old and decrepit?”
                      and I have attained to the declining of old age?
                      and surely have reached an age of extreme degree?
                      and I have reached an extremely old age”.
                      and I have reached infirmity due to old age?”
                      and I am already advanced in age?’
                      and I am advanced in years’

                      وَإِذْ قُلْتُمْ يَا مُوسَى لَن نُّؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى نَرَى اللَّهَ جَهْرَةً فَأَخَذَتْكُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ
                      And [recall] when you said, “O Moses, we will never believe you until we see Allah outright”; so the thunderbolt took you while you were looking on.

                      حَتَّى نَرَى اللَّهَ جَهْرَةً
                      till we see Allah plainly
                      until we see Allah manifestly
                      until we see Allah openly.
                      unless we plainly see God
                      unless we see Allâh openly
                      until we see God face to face
                      unless you could see God with your own eyes
                      till we clearly see Allah”
                      unless we see God plainly.
                      till we clearly see Allah
                      until we see God with our own eyes
                      until we see Allah visibly.

                      فَأَخَذَتْكُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ
                      so the thunderbolt took you
                      But you were seized with a thunderbolt (lightning)
                      the lightning seized you.
                      so the punishment overtook you
                      So the (stunning) thunderbolt took you
                      Thereupon the thunderbolt seized you.
                      so the death/cry of torture took/punished you
                      lightning struck you
                      then a thunderbolt took hold of you
                      so the punishment overtook you
                      the swift wind struck you
                      and the thunderbolt caught you




                      وَلَوْ جَاءَتْهُمْ كُلُّ آيَةٍ حَتَّى يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ


                      حَتَّى يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ
                      until they see the painful punishment.
                      the painful torment.
                      Though every token come unto them
                      the painful doom.
                      until they see the penalty grievous.
                      until they witness the painful chastisement.
                      the painful punishment.
                      Even though every proof should come to them,
                      they face the grievous punishment.
                      until they hehold an afflictive torment.
                      until they face the most painful torment.

                      كَذَلِكَ حَقَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ فَسَقُوا
                      Thus the word of your Lord has come into effect upon those who defiantly disobeyed
                      Thus is the Word of your Lord justified against those who rebel (disobey Allah)

                      O Salih, you have readily been a (source of) hope among us before that
                      O Salih! surely you were one amongst us in whom great expectations were placed before this
                      O SؤپliH, we had hopes in you before this
                      Salih, We used to have such great hope in you
                      O Salih! Until now you were one of those among us on whom we placed great hopes



                      وَإِنَّنَا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِّمَّا تَدْعُونَا إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ
                      We are certainly in alarming doubt about what you are inviting us to
                      And surely we (all) are indeed in doubt concerning what you call us to, causing suspicion
                      we verily are in grave doubt concerning that to which you called us
                      And indeed we are, about that to which you invite us, in disquieting doubt
                      And as to that which you call us to, most surely we are in disquieting doubt
                      We have serious doubts that have disturbed us about the faith to which you are calling us
                      We are in grave doubt about what you are asking us to do

                      فَمَا تَزِيدُونَنِي غَيْرَ تَخْسِيرٍ
                      You would only contribute to my doom
                      Then you increase me not but in loss
                      Ye would add to me naught save perdition
                      So you would not increase me except in loss
                      So, you extend nothing to me but loss
                      You would only make my loss greater
                      You can only make me lose even more



                      فَذَرُوهَا تَأْكُلْ فِي أَرْضِ اللَّهِ
                      So leave her to graze ث¹freelyث؛ on Allah’s earth
                      so leave it to pasture on God’s earth
                      So let her pasture on Allah's earth
                      So let her feed upon Allah 's earth
                      So, leave her free to eat on the earth of Allah
                      so suffer her to feed in Allah's earth

                      وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابٌ قَرِيبٌ
                      and do her no harm, or a swift punishment will overtake you
                      and do not harm it, or you will soon be punished
                      and do not hurt her or some chastisement - which is near at hand -should overtake you

                      and do not touch her with harm, or you will be taken by an impending punishment

                      and do not even touch her with evil (intention), lest an approaching punishment should seize you

                      and inflict no harm on her, or a swift penalty will seize you
                      and touch her not with harm lest a near torment seize you

                      and do not touch her with odious treatment ,for then a near torment would take you away
                      and touch her not with evil, lest a near torment will seize you


                      ذَلِكَ وَعْدٌ غَيْرُ مَكْذُوبٍ
                      that is a promise not to be belied
                      This is a threat that will not be belied
                      That is a promise not to be denied
                      That is a promise, not to be backed out
                      this is an unfailing promise

                      فَأَصْبَحُوا فِي دِيَارِهِمْ جَاثِمِينَ
                      and then they lay lifeless in their homes
                      they became cowering (bodies) in their residences
                      so they lay (dead), prostrate in their homes
                      so that morning found them prostrate in their dwellings
                      and they became within their homes [corpses] fallen prone
                      so they became motionless bodies in their abodes
                      and they lay prostrate in their homes before the morning
                      and they were found dead in their homes, fallen on their knees
                      so they fell lifeless in their homes

                      فَمَا لَبِثَ أَن جَاءَ بِعِجْلٍ حَنِيذٍ
                      Then in no way did he linger to come with a fleshy well-roasted calf
                      and delayed not to bring a roasted calf
                      and did not delay in bringing [them] a roasted calf
                      and he made no delay in bringing a roasted calf
                      and hastened to entertain them with a roasted calf
                      and he hastened to entertain them with a roasted calf
                      and without delay he brought in a roasted calf
                      and hurriedly brought to them a roasted calf
                      Then he took not much time in bringing a roasted calf
                      Then it was not long before he brought ث¹themث؛ a ث¹fat,ث؛ roasted calf

                      نَكِرَهُمْ وَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةً
                      he disclaimed them and entertained a fright of them
                      he felt some mistrust of them, and conceived a fear of them
                      he mistrusted them and conceived a fear of them
                      he distrusted them and felt from them apprehension
                      he deemed them strange and conceived fear of them
                      he found this strange and became afraid of them
                      he mistrusted them, and felt afraid of them
                      he found them strange and felt scared of them
                      he became suspicious and fearful of them



                      قَالَتْ يَا وَيْلَتَ أَأَلِدُ وَأَنَا عَجُوزٌ وَهَذَا بَعْلِي شَيْخًا إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ عَجِيبٌ
                      She said, "Woe to me! Shall I give birth while I am an old woman and this, my husband, is an old man? Indeed, this is an amazing thing!"à

                      إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ عَجِيبٌ
                      this is a strange thing
                      this is an amazing thing
                      Most surely this is a wonderful thing
                      That would indeed be a wonderful thing
                      This is something amazing indeed
                      That would be a strange thing
                      This is truly an astonishing thing


                      أَتَعْجَبِينَ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ
                      Are you astonished by Allah’s decree? 0
                      Are you amazed at the decree of Allah ?0
                      Do you wonder at Allah's bidding? 0
                      Do you marvel at Allah’s command? à
                      Are you astonished at what God ordains?à


                      فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الرَّوْعُ
                      Then after the fear had left Abraham
                      So, as soon as dread had gone away from Ibrahim
                      And when the awe departed from Abraham
                      And when the fright had left Abraham
                      So when fear had gone away from Ibrahim
                      When fear had passed from (the mind of) Abraham

                      يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَعْرِضْ عَنْ هَذَا
                      O Ibrahim (Abraham)! Forsake this
                      O Ibrahim! leave off this
                      O Abraham! Seek not this
                      O Ibrؤپhؤ«m! Leave it
                      Abraham, cease your pleading
                      O Ibrahim, veer away from this
                      O Abraham, give up this
                      O Abraham! Desist from this
                      O Abraham! Plead no more!


                      وَإِنَّهُمْ آتِيهِمْ عَذَابٌ غَيْرُ مَرْدُودٍ
                      and they will certainly be afflicted with a punishment
                      that cannot be averted!

                      عَذَابٌ غَيْرُ مَرْدُودٍ
                      a punishment that cannot be repelled
                      a torment not to be turned back
                      a penalty that cannot be turned back!
                      a doom which cannot be repelled


                      سِيءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًا
                      he was distressed and worried by their arrival

                      he was vexed on their account, and he was straitened for them

                      he was distressed and knew not how to protect them

                      he was anguished for them and felt for them great
                      discomfort

                      he was grieved for them, and he lacked strength to
                      protect them

                      he was grieved on their account and felt himself powerless

                      he was saddened because of them, and his heart felt uneasy for their sake

                      he was anxious for them, feeling powerless to protect them

                      he was perturbed by their coming and felt troubled on their account





                      هَذَا يَوْمٌ عَصِيبٌ
                      This is a distressing day

                      This is a distressful day

                      This is a truly terrible day

                      This is a very hard day

                      This is a trying day

                      This is a most critical day


                      فَإِذَا انسَلَخَ الْأَشْهُرُ الْحُرُمُ

                      But once the Sacred Months have passed,

                      But when the sacred months expire

                      When the [four] forbidden months are over

                      But when the forbidden months are past

                      So when the sacred months have passed away

                      So, when the prohibiting months are drawn away

                      وَاقْعُدُوا لَهُمْ كُلَّ مَرْصَدٍ
                      and lie in wait for them on every way

                      wait for them at every lookout post

                      and prepare for them each and every ambush

                      and sit in ambush for them everywhere

                      and lie in wait for them in every stratagem

                      فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهُمْ
                      then set them free

                      leave them alone

                      let them go on their way

                      then leave their way free

                      then open the way for them

                      وَإِنْ أَحَدٌ مِّنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ اسْتَجَارَكَ
                      And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection

                      And if one of the idolaters seek protection from you

                      ثُمَّ أَبْلِغْهُ مَأْمَنَهُ
                      and afterward convey him to his place of safety

                      thereafter convey him to his secure place

                      and then escort him to where he can be secure

                      Then deliver him to his place of safety

                      then make him attain his place of safety


                      فَمَا اسْتَقَامُوا لَكُمْ فَاسْتَقِيمُوا لَهُمْ

                      so, as long as they go straight with you, so go straight with them

                      So, as long as they are true to you, be true to them


                      كَيْفَ وَإِن يَظْهَرُوا عَلَيْكُمْ
                      How? And in case they get the better of you,


                      وَإِن يَظْهَرُوا عَلَيْكُمْ
                      when you are overpowered by them

                      if they have the upper hand of you

                      if they prevail against you

                      if they get an advantage over you

                      If they were to have the upper hand over you

                      if they gain dominance over you

                      if they overcome you

                      if they were to get the upper hand over you

                      لَا يَرْقُبُوا فِيكُمْ إِلًّا وَلَا ذِمَّةً
                      they will respect towards you neither consanguinity nor treaty

                      they regard not the ties, either of kinship or of covenant with you

                      they regard not pact nor honour in respect of you

                      they would not pay regard in your case to ties of relationship, nor those of covenant

                      they would have no respect for kinship or treaty

                      they will not observe any bond or treaty with you


                      يُرْضُونَكُم بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَتَأْبَى قُلُوبُهُمْ
                      they satisfy you with their mouths, (but) their hearts refuse

                      With (good words from) their mouths they please you, but their hearts are averse to you

                      they please you with their mouths while their hearts do not consent

                      With (fair words from) their mouths they entice you, but their hearts are averse from you

                      They only flatter you with their tongues, but their hearts are in denial

                      وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ
                      and most of them are wicked

                      and most of them are lawbreakers

                      Most of them are sinners

                      and most of them are defiantly disobedient

                      and most of them are rebellious

                      and most of them are transgressors

                      And most of them are wrongdoers

                      and most of them are immoral

                      فَصَدُّوا عَن سَبِيلِهِ
                      and (many) have they hindered from His way

                      and have firmly hindered people from His Path

                      and barred others from His path

                      so they have prevented (people) from His path

                      so they turn away from His way

                      and averted [people] from His way

                      so they debar (men) from His way

                      إِنَّهُمْ سَاءَ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
                      evil indeed are the deeds they have done

                      How evil their actions are!

                      evil is what they have been doing

                      surely odious is whatever they were doing


                      لَا يَرْقُبُونَ فِي مُؤْمِنٍ إِلًّا وَلَا ذِمَّةً
                      They do not honour the bonds of kinship or treaties with the believers

                      They do not observe any bond or treaty with a believer


                      وَأُولئك هُمُ الْمُعْتَدُونَ

                      and these are they who go beyond the limits

                      It is they who have transgressed all bounds

                      It is they who are the transgressors
                      Or if a man tries to seduce another woman, she recommends a dose of burnt hoopoe nails to set him straight.

                      وَإِن نَّكَثُوا أَيْمَانَهُم
                      But if they break their oaths

                      But if they violate their oaths

                      And if they break their pledges

                      وَطَعَنُوا فِي دِينِكُمْ
                      and attack your faith

                      and attack your religion with disapproval and criticism

                      and assail your religion

                      who never honour their oaths

                      for surely their oaths are nothing to them

                      surely their oaths are nothing

                      that possibly they would refrain

                      In this way the deeds of such heedless people are made attractive to them

                      This is how their deeds appear beautified to the transgressors

                      Thus it is that the misdeeds of the transgressors are made fair-seeming to them

                      Thus, whatever they were doing was adorned for the extravagant

                      and were one of the corruptors

                      and been of the wrong-doers

                      and you were of the mischief-makers

                      you had always been a rebel, and a troublemaker


                      كَبُرَتْ كَلِمَةً تَخْرُجُ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ

                      Dreadful is the word that came out of their mouths


                      An odious word it is, coming out of their mouths

                      Mighty is the word that comes out of their mouths

                      Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths

                      a grievous word it is that comes out of their mouths

                      It is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths

                      it is a monstrous assertion that comes out of their mouths

                      What a terrible claim that comes out of their mouths!0

                      What they utter is merely a lie

                      what they say is nothing but falsehood!0

                        فإن للمعصية شؤماً على صاحبها
                        for sin is bad news for the one who does it




                        حرمان العلم ،

                        فإن العلم نور يقذفه الله في القلب ،

                        for knowledge is light that Allaah causes to reach the heart,

                        والمعصية تُطفئ ذلك النور .


                        and sin extinguishes that light

                        he admired him because of the intelligence, alertness and understanding

                          أن المعاصي تزرع أمثالها ، ويُولِّد بعضها بعضاً ، حتى يعز على العبد مفارقتها والخروج منها

                          this is the ultimate shamelessness in which they find great pleasure,


                          حتى يفتخر أحدهم بالمعصية
                          such that they feel proud of their sin



                          كلُّ أمتي معافى إلا المجاهرون

                          All of my ummah (followers) will be fine except for those who commit sin openly,

                            أن الذنوب إذا تكاثرت طُبِعَ على قلب صاحبها ،
                            When there are many sins they leave a mark on the heart of the person who commits them,

                            فكان من الغافلين
                            so he becomes one of the negligent



                            { كلا بل ران على قلوبهم ما كانوا يكسبون }
                            “Nay! But on their hearts is the Raan (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn”0


                            وأصل هذا أن القلب يصدأ من المعصية
                            How this starts is that the heart gets stained by sin,


                            ، فإذا زادت
                            and if the sin increases

                            غلب الصدأ
                            then the stain grows bigger


                            حتى يصير راناً ،
                            until 9it becomes the raan (covering of sin and evil deeds)0


                            ثم يغلب حتى يصير طبعاً وقفلاً وختماً ،


                            then it increases until it becomes a seal,

                            فيصير القلب في غشاوة وغلاف ،
                            and the heart
                            becomes covered and sealed


                            فإذا حصل له ذلك بعد الهدى والبصيرة
                            If that happens after a person had been guided and had understood,

                            انتكس فصار أعلاه أسفـله ،

                            then his heart is turned upside down,

                            فحينئذٍ يتولاه الشيطان ويسوقه حيث أراد .

                            and at that point the Shaytaan gains control over him and directs him as he wants



                            هذه هي حقيقة الدنيا
                            This is the reality of this world;

                            التي مهما تمتعنا فيها .

                            no matter how much enjoyment we find in it,

                            فمآلها ومنتهاها الكدر والأسى

                            it will ultimately end in sorrow and regret



                            إن مشاعر الغضب التي تنتابك
                            The feelings of anger that you experience

                            كردة فعل لمن يدخن أمامك هي مشاعر واقعية لها ما يبررها في الأصل والحقيقة ،

                            as a reaction towards someone who smokes in front of you are justifiable feelings


                            بل إنني أزيد فأقول

                            Indeed I would go further and say

                            إن جمهور العقلاء يوافقونك طبعاً وسجيةً على هذه المشاعر
                            that most wise people would naturally agree with you,


                            التي تنبع من الحياة الطبيعية واستهجان القبائح من الأعمال الرذيلة الدنيئة
                            because man is by nature repulsed by bad actions,


                            ناهيك عن كونك تتضررين جسدياً من هذا الدخان
                            in addition to that fact that you are being physically harmed by this smoke



                            بيد أن الإنسان لابد وأن يفقه كيف يمكنه التعبير عن مشاعره
                            But a person must understand how he can express his feelings

                            تجاه الأشياء والمواقف التي يُحس أنها لا تتلائم مع تفكيره وسجيته ,

                            towards things and he must find the best way to express his feelings in different situations that do not suit him

                            وحيث استطاع الإنسان أن يتجاوز هذه العقبة بنجاح
                            When a person can overcome this obstacle successfully,

                            فإنه يكون قد خطى الخطوة الصحيحة نحو الهدف المنشود


                            he will have taken an important step towards achieving his goal


                            الناس لا تستجيب لرغبة الآمر على وجه الإجبار والسلطة
                            people do not respond to the wishes of the one who issues commands with an attitude of force and compulsion,


                            , بل تبتعد عن صاحب ذلك الطبع بعيداً
                            rather they will move far away from the one who is like that,


                            مع إيمانها بأن ما يقول أو يطلب هو في نفسه صحيح مقبول
                            even though they may believe that what he is saying or demanding is in itself correct and acceptable



                            إن مجرد شعورك بالغضب تجاه هؤلاء للأسباب التي ذكرتِ أمر مقبول ،
                            Simply feeling angry towards these things that you mention is something that is acceptable,


                            ولكن الغضب وحده لايأتي بنتيجة مرضية في أغلب الأحوال ،

                            but anger on its own does not bring about the desired results in most cases


                            وإن السيطرة على الأعصاب والمشاعر
                            Controlling your nerves and feelings,



                            والبحث عن إيصالها بالطريق المناسب
                            and looking for an appropriate way to express them


                            يوصل الإنسان لمُراده من أقصر الطرق وأسهلها ،
                            will bring about the desired results in the shortest and easiest way

                            فهل جربت أن عبرت عن مدى استيائك من الدخان


                            Have you tried expressing how much the smoking bothers you


                            وما يسببه لك من الأضرار بأسلوب الهدوء والاستئذان
                            and the bad effect it has on you, in a calm and polite manner




                            يستجيبون على الفور
                            will respond immediately

                            فلابد أن يتحلى بالصبر والأناة وحسن المنطق والحوار.
                            he has to be patient, careful and speak well

                            فكم في الدنيا مما يثير الغضب ؟
                            How many things there are in this world that provoke anger

                            أن ذلك المر والعناء سوف يستحيل عسلاً يوم تجنين ثمرته .
                            and this bitterness and struggle will become sweet on the day when you find it bears fruit

                              ويلٌ لشارب الخمر
                              Woe to the drinker of wine

                              فإن شرب الخمر كبيرة من كبائر الذنوب ..
                              Drinking alcohol is a major sin,


                              وهي أم الخبائث .. ومفتاح كل شر ..
                              for wine is the mother of all evils

                              تغتال العقل .. وتستنزف المال ..
                              It clouds the mind, wastes money,


                              وتصدع الرأس .. وهي كريهة المذاق ..
                              causes headaches, tastes foul,


                              ورجس من عمل الشيطان؛

                              and is an abomination of the Satan’s handiwork


                              توقع العداوة والبغضاء بين الناس ..
                              It creates enmity and hatred between people,


                              وتصد عن ذكر الله وعن الصلاة ..
                              prevents them from remembering Allaah and praying,


                              وتدعو إلى الزنا ..
                              calls them to unlawful sexual relationships

                              وربما دعت إلى الوقوع على البنت

                              and may even call them to commit incest with their daughters



                              وتذهب الغيرة وتورث الخزي والندامة والفضيحة ..

                              It takes away pride and protective jealousy (gheerah),à
                              and generates shame, regret and disgrace,


                              وتلحق شاربها بأنقص نوع الإنسان وهم المجانين ..
                              and puts the drinker in the same category as the most imperfect type of people, namely those who are insane


                              وتهتك الأستار .. وتظهر الأسرار .. وتدل على العورات ..

                              It leads to the disclosure of secrets and exposure of faults


                              وتهوِّن ارتكاب القبائح والمآثم ..
                              It encourages people to commit sins and evil actions

                              It makes people transgress sacred limits


                              ومدمنها كعابد وثن

                              and the one who is addicted to it is like an idol-worshipper


                              كم أهاجت من حرب ؟..

                              وذلت من عزيز؟..

                              فهي جماع الإثم

                              It is the source of sin,

                              ومفتاح الشر

                              the key to evil;

                              it takes away blessings and brings calamity


                              ولو لم يكن من رذائلها إلا أنها لا تجتمع هي وخمر الجنة في جوف عبد لكفى بها من مصيبة .
                              Even if it did not have all these evil consequences, the fact that one cannot have both the wine of this world and the wine of Paradise is sufficient deterrent


                              وآفات الخمر أضعاف أضعاف ما ذكرنا

                              And the evil consequences of alcohol are many time more than we have mentioned

                              لا يُقبل منه تنكيلاً له .
                              it will not be accepted from him, as a rebuke


                              لكان مرتكباً لكبيرة عظيمة هي أشد من ارتكابه لجريمة شرب الخمر
                              he will be committing a major sin that is even greater than the sin of drinking alcohol

                              لا ينبغي أن يُسوِّغ له استمراء المعاصي وإدمانها ،
                              that should not be used to justify his persisting in sin or his addiction,


                              أو ترك الطاعات والتفريط فيها
                              or his neglecting to do acts of worship

                              ويجتهد في ترك ما يقترفه من الكبائر والموبقات

                              and strive to give up the sins that he is committing


                              وأن يحذر من إغواء الشيطان ونزغاته ،
                              and beware of the wiles and snares of the Satan


                              وألا يجعل من نفسه أُلعوبة بيد الشيطان ،
                              He should not let his soul become a plaything of the devil

                              فإن انتصر عليه شيطانه ،

                              If his Shaytaan overpowers him


                              وأوقعه في معصية الخالق جلَّ وعلى
                              and makes him fall into sin and disobedience towards his Creator,


                              فليبادر إلى التوبة
                              then he must hasten to repent,

                              ، فإن " التائب من الذنب كمن لا ذنب له "

                              for the one who repents is like the one who did not sin


                              نسأل الله أن يعصمنا من نزغات الشيطان ،
                              We ask Allaah to protect us from the tricks of the devil


                              وأن يجنبنا الفتن ما ظهر منها وما بطن
                              and to help us avoid temptations both obvious and hidden

                                وقبائح العادات ،

                                and abhorrent behaviour,



                                سواء كان باللسان أم بالقلب ،
                                whether that is done verbally or in one’s heart


                                فهو من الآفات التي تلحق اللسان أو القلب

                                It is one of the faults that may have an impact on one’s tongue or heart,


                                فتطبعه بطابع البغض والكراهية واحتقار الناس وازدراء أحوالهم ،
                                and generate in his heart resentment, hatred and scorn towards people,


                                وتشغل النفس عن المقاصد السامية التي خلقت لأجلها

                                and it distracts a person from the sublime aim for which he was created,


                                ، التي هي عمارة الكون بالأعمال الصالحة والأخلاق الفاضلة ،

                                which is to fill the world with righteous deeds and good attitudes


                                فالقلب المشتغل بكره الناس وشتمهم بعيد عن التزكية ،
                                The heart that is focused on hating people and reviling them is far removed from purity



                                بعيد عن الإخبات الذي هو السكون

                                and far removed from that humility before one’s Lord
                                which is tranquillity


                                والاطمئنان إلى ما عند الله تعالى

                                and contentment with that which is with Allah, may He be exalted


                                كما يحرم عليك أن تحدث غيرك بلسانك بمساويء الغير ،
                                Just as it is prohibited for you to speak ill of someone verbally in front of others,


                                فليس لك أن تحدث نفسك وتسيء الظن بأخيك ...
                                it is also not right for you to talk to yourself and think ill of your brother…

                                ومهما خطر لك خاطر بسوء على مسلم

                                The more you have bad thoughts about a Muslim,


                                فينبغي أن تزيد في مراعاته وتدعو له بالخير
                                the more you should care for him and pray for him,

                                فإن ذلك يغيظ الشيطان
                                because that will annoy the Shaytaan

                                ، ويدفعه عنك ،



                                and push him away from you,


                                فلا يلقى إليك الخاطر السوء
                                so that he will not instil bad thoughts in you


                                خيفة من اشتغالك بالدعاء والمراعاة ،
                                lest you resort to offering supplication for your brother and caring for him

                                ومهما عرفت هفوة مسلم بحجة

                                Whatever faults you find in your brother,

                                فانصحه في السر ،
                                offer him advice in private


                                ولا يخدعنك الشيطان فيدعوك إلى اغتيابه

                                and do not let the Shaytaan deceive you and call you to backbite about him




                                هذا إذا كان شتمك في السر وقع بغير وجه حق ،
                                This applies if you revile and impugn him in secret him with no justification


                                أما إذا كان بوجه حق ، ودفعا لظلم ظالم ،
                                But if there was some justification and it was done to ward off the mistreatment of a wrongdoer



                                أو اعتداء معتد
                                or transgression of a transgressor,

                                ، فلا إثم فيه ولا حرج
                                then there is no sin in that and no blame
