Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm
إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَن يُوقِعَ بَيْنَكُمُ الْعَدَاوَةَ وَالْبَغْضَاءَ
(Qur’ān 05:91)
“Innamā Yurīdu sh-Shaytānu ‘an Yūqi’a Baynakumu l-Adāwata wa l-Baghda’a”
“Shaytan only wants to cause between you enmity and hatred.” Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, shayṭān wants to cause enmity, evil, and hatred among people. This is shayṭān’s duty. Wherever there is beauty, shayṭān seeks to corrupt it. He desires no goodness for mankind.
People have become toys in his hands in this time; they do as he wishes. People are always subject to him as he pleases. They’ve become enemies within families; wife towards her husband, husband towards his wife, brothers and sisters, and family relations.
Enmity is something that Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla dislikes. He ﷻ says, Muslims are brothers. If Muslims disagree, reconcile them. Let that disagreement be over. If there is a disagreement, reconciliation is what Allāh ﷻ loves and what our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam loves.
He ﷺ says, Muslims should be united. There should be no division. There should be no division in their hearts. There should be no hostility between them.
These days, there’s hostility, evil, and hatred among people and within families. When this happens, there’s no barakah left. Their īmān weakens. Because they are not obeying the command of Allāh ﷻ. The command of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is to love one another.
Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said, “A believer cannot attain true faith unless he loves for his brother what he loves for himself. If he doesn’t, he’s not a believer; he hasn’t attained true faith.”
He’s of course a Muslim, but īmān is higher and more beautiful. You’ll find every goodness in believers towards people and the community. There will be no evil.
Therefore, whatever disagreement there is, think that the other party has an excuse; that it’s a misunderstanding. You shouldn’t immediately attack them. You should excuse them.
Accept their excuse saying, “They had an excuse. They probably said something bad because their mood was bad, and then they regret what they said.” Don’t just go after them with, “He said this to me. He said that to me;” you shouldn’t do so.
May Allāh ﷻ grant people this beautiful treatment. May brothers, family, relatives, acquaintances, neighbors, all have a good and beautiful life, in shā’a Llāh.
May enmity be eliminated from among us. Enmity is not a good thing. Only shayṭān loves enmity. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla does not love it. May Allah ﷻ protect us. Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq.
Al-Fatiha.
