THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 21st day of Shaw'waal, 1444AH (Thursday, 11st May, 2023).
TREAT THE BAD RELATIVES AND FRIENDS WITH GOODNESS. BismilLah
In Quran 41:34
ALLAH says (Tafsir ibn kathir);
وَلَا تَسْتَوِي الْحَسَنَةُ وَلَا السَّيِّيَةُ
The good deed and the evil deed cannot be equal. means, there is a huge difference between them.
ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ
Repel (the evil) with one which is better,
means, `when someone does you wrong, repel him by treating him well,' as Umar, may ALLAH be pleased with him, said,
"There is no better punishment for one who has disobeyed ALLAH with regard to you, than your obeying ALLAH with regard to him."
فَإِذَا الَّذِي بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ عَدَاوَةٌ كَأَنَّهُ وَلِيٌّ حَمِيمٌ
then verily he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend.
means, `if you treat well those who treat you badly, this good deed will lead to reconciliation, love and empathy, and it will be as if he is a close friend to you and he will feel pity for you and be kind to you.' Quran is the source of guidance indeed AlhamdulilLah. This verse is enough to wipe away pride and arrogance in us if we follow its guidance. May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.
