 *Reasons To Let Go*

[[---Final Episode----]]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Everything in this life is a test. This is why Allah (swt) say:

“And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient” 📚[Qur’an: Chapter 2, Verse 155]

Servants of Allah!

The good and bad around us is there to teach us and test us. Yes. Bad things and bad people will show up in our lives, so it’s not about avoiding that completely, but about learning how to cope. So, what we need to do is be patient and steadfast in all circumstances. We should only focus on Allah (swt) and seek His Mercy, Forgiveness and eternal rewards because we’re only here on earth for a very short period of time – our eternal life is yet to come. With that in mind, the trials we go through in life should not get the better of us.

Muslim Faithful!

A great example shown by our Prophet (pbuh) was when he showed mercy and compassion for the people of Ta’if who injured him after he tried to tell them about Allah (swt) and the purpose of their existence.

*Evidence:*

Narrated

Aisha (RA) that she asked the Prophet (pbuh), “Have you encountered a day harder than the day of the battle of Uhud?” The Prophet (pbuh) replied,

“Your tribes have troubled me a lot, and the worse trouble was the trouble on the day of ‘Aqaba when I presented myself to Ibn 

Abd-Yalail bin `Abd-Kulal and he did not respond to my demand. So I departed, overwhelmed with excessive sorrow, and proceeded on, and could not relax till I found myself at Qarnath-Tha-alib where I lifted my head towards the sky to see a cloud shading me unexpectedly. I looked up and saw Gabriel 'alayhi'l-salām in it. He called me saying, ‘Allah (swt) has heard your people’s saying to you, and what they have replied back to you, Allah (swt) has sent the Angel of the Mountains to you so that you may order him to do whatever you wish to these people.’ The Angel of the Mountains called and greeted me, and then said, ‘O Muhammad (saw)! Order what you wish. If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them.’ The Prophet (pbuh) said, ‘No but I hope that Allah (swt) will let them beget children who will worship Allah (swt) Alone, and will worship None besides Him.’ ” 📚[Sahih al Bukhari]

That was how compassionate our Prophet was. He forgave people and made dua for them, even when they were violent towards him. He had compassion for them and ultimately wanted them to be guided to Islam. So, the next time someone makes you angry, take a minute to reflect on all the benefits of forgiving people who wronged you in our previous episodes of this article.. With the hope that all the episodes of this articles helps.

Allah alone knows best
