DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 4th day of Sha'abaan (Saturday 28th of March, 2020).
*_ENVY AND HATRED ARE THE DESTROYERS OF OUR GOOD DEEDS_*. *Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem*.
Envy (hasad) is a spiritual disease that is the root of numerous sins and it's worse than Coronavirus. It is incompatible with true faith and it has the capacity to nullifying a person’s good deeds. A Muslim cannot achieve a pure heart until it is emptied of all envy, hatred, and malice.
The person who envies is, in reality, displeased with the way ALLAH has distributed HIS blessings. ALLAH says:
أَمْ يَحْسُدُونَ النَّاسَ عَلَىٰ مَا آتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ
Or do they envy people for what ALLAH has given them of HIS bounty?
Quran 4:54.
Imam An-Nawawi wrote in one of his books that:
الحسد هو تمني زوال النعمة عن صاحبها سواء كانت نعمة دين أو دنيا
Envy is the desire for someone who has a blessing to be deprived of it, whether it is a religious or worldly blessing.̣
The one who envies has become displeased with the decree of ALLAH the Exalted, so he hates that ALLAH has blessed his servants.
Envy in this sense is directly related to the desire to harm, to nurture malicious hatred against the person that is envied.
*_May ALLAH (Al-Qayyuum, The Maintainer of life) protect us from this satanic influences directly or indirectly_*. Aameen.
