DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 30th day of Jumaada Al-Awwal (Saturday 25th of January, 2020).
TV MAY BE FITNAH IN OUR LIFE. BismilLah.
The most dangerous instrument that is being used today to prepare mankind for the coming of Dajjal, is the television. The television networks announce their viewer ship for all major events to be in the billions, which indicates the ability to influence so many people all at once. This shows the ability of disseminating information (true or false) to billions of people. We cannot allow ourselves as Muslims to be influenced or corrupted by television if we wish to be able recognize the fitna and fasaad of the Dajjal.
What should we, as Muslims, be doing?
We should be spending our precious time in an environment that promotes the consciousness of ALLAH (S.W.T) and fulfilling our object of our existence on earth. As ALLAH mentions in Quran:
I created the jinn and humankind only that they might worship ME. [adh-Dhariyat 51:56].
ALLAH (S.W.T) warns us of being heedless of our religion Islaam, and being deceived by this world as follows:
“And leave alone those who take their religion as play and amusement, and whom the life of this world has deceived. But remind ( them) with it (the Quran) lest a person be given up to destruction for that which he has earned, when he will find for himself no protector or intecessor beside ALLAH, and even if he offers every ransom, it will not be accepted from him. Such are they who are given up to destruction because of that which they have earned. For them will be a drink of boiling water and a painful torment because they used to disbelieve. [Al-An’am:70].
Let us not be of those who ALLAH (S.W.T) has blessed with five senses (i.e. sight, hearing, speech, touch and smell) but uses these senses to disobey HIM. We should be using these blessed senses in the pleasure of our Creator (S.W.T). It would certainly be a sign of ingratitude if we were to use our senses, time and our wealth in the disobedience of ALLAH (S.W.T). In this regard ALLAH (S.W.T) mentions in the Holy Quran:
Verily the ear, the eye and the heart – with regard to each of these it will be questioned. [Al-Isrá: 36].
It is clear that that this verse indicates towards the great responsibility attached to the correct usage of the senses.
Muslims are urged to change our ways and to make sincere taubah (repentance) for our past sins.
ALLAH has granted us choices of good and evil in this world; let us use it for the good. We should try and refrain from entertaining ourselves with television and enjoy the HALAAL activity that is pleasing to our Creator (S.W.T). We can use it for Islamic programs other than that better shouldn't have one if you cannot control it well.
May ALLAH keep Guiding us, and forgive us all. Aameen.
