THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 13th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Thursday, 25th January 2024). *_BETRAYAL IS HARAAM IN ISLAM, AVOID IT_*. BismilLah.
One of our soul's defects that brutally affects our ties with our Creator, ALLAH, as well as our relationships with others, is betrayal. Betraying is an unfaithful act characterized by deliberate but hidden deceiving, lying, and scheming. Because of the intentional secretive planning that is involved in betrayal, its victims are always taken by surprise. The most harmful consequence of betraying is the sudden and abrupt destruction of the bond of trust, loyalty, and confidence that exists in different kinds of social relations. This results in a deep sense of disappointment and serious damage to the integrity of such relationships.
ALLAH says in Quran 8:27 to the nearest meaning, "O you who believe, do not betray ALLAH and the Messenger, and do not betray those who trust you, now that you know.
Students of the Quran know that all the elements that might be involved in the ugly course of betrayal are clearly highlighted as prohibited bad behaviour and immorality, and therefore condemned by ALLAH.
ALLAH says again in Quran 17:38. All bad behaviour is condemned by your Lord. In Quran 24:19. Those who love to see immorality spread among the believers have incurred a painful retribution in this life and in the Hereafter. ALLAH knows, while you do not know.
Those elements might be summarized as cheating, hypocrisy, and breaking promises:
ALLAH says in Quran 26:183, "Do not cheat the people out of their rights, and do not roam the earth corruptingly. Hopefully, it's clear now for all to know that betrayal is dangerous for our own souls. *_May ALLAH (Al-Haadi, The Guide) keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.
