Story Corner: The man who promised to tell the truth

Gradly — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 13:19:36 +0000

Once a man came to the prophet Muhammad (S) and said, “Oh Prophet of Allah, I have many bad habits. Which one of them should I give up first?” The prophet said, “Give up telling lies first and always speak the truth.” The man promised to do so and went home.

At night the man was about to go out to steal. Before setting out, he thought for a moment about the promise he made with the prophet. “If tomorrow the prophet asks me where have I been, what shall I say? Shall I say that I went out stealing? No, I cannot say that. But nor can I lie. If I tell the truth, everyone will start hating me and call me a thief. I would be punished for stealing.”

So the man decided not to steal that night, and gave up this bad habit.

Next day, he felt like drinking wine, when he was about to do so, he said to himself, “What shall I say to the prophet if he asks me what did I do during the day? I cannot tell a lie, and if I speak the truth people will hate me, because a Muslim is not allowed to drink wine.” And so he gave up the idea of drinking wine.

In this way, whenever the man thought of doing something bad, he remembered his promise to tell the truth at all times. One by one, he gave up all his bad habits and became a good Muslim and a very good person.

Some hadeeth on the importance of being truthful.

‘Abd-Allaah ibn Mas’ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘You must be truthful, for truthfulness leads to righteousness and righteousness leads to Paradise. A man will keep speaking the truth and striving to speak the truth until he will be recorded with Allaah as a siddeeq (speaker of the truth). Beware of telling lies, for lying leads to immorality and immorality leads to Hellfire. A man will keep telling lies and striving to tell lies until he is recorded with Allaah as a liar.” (Reported by Muslim, 4721)

Al-Hasan ibn ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: “I memorized from the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): ‘Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt, for truthfulness is certainty and tranquillity, whilst lying is doubt and confusion.” (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 2520; al-Nisaa’i, 8/327; and Ahmad, 1/200)

Just Remember ALLAH

Gradly — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 07:50:22 +0000

When things are down,
And you are out of your mind,
Just Remember,
Allah is The All-Kind.
When your life is in darkness,
And nothing is right,
Just Remember,
Through the darkness,
Allah is The Light.
When nothing makes sense,
And your heading for demise,
Just Remember,
It doesn’t make sense but,
Allah is The All-Wise.
When times are troubled,
And no one seems to care,
Just Remember,
Allah won’t hurt you, He is Just.
When your heart is breaking,
And your pain makes you fall,
Just Remember,
Allah Sees all.
When you are weak,
And the road seems long,
Just Remember,
Seek strength from The All-Strong.
When life is a burden,
And everything is unstable,
Just Remember,
Allah is Able to do all.

When the way is cloudy,
And there is no one by your side,
Just Remember,
Allah is The Only Guide.
When no one wants to listen,
Or is willing to lend an ear,
Just Remember,
Allah is the All-Hearing.
When you are poor and penniless,
And you are stuck in a niche,
Just Remember,
Allah is The Rich.
When you are down in your misery,
And there is nowhere to run,
Just Remember,
You can always run to The One.
When you r all alone,
And your pain has no end,
Just Remember,
Allah is the only one you can depend on.
And when your scars are hurting,
And your heart is in fear,
Just Remember,
Allah is with those who are patient.
