Purification of the soul (S3) Wishing the best for your brothers and sisters in this ummah, and serving them is one of the greatest methods to purify one’s nafs. Allah ﷻ : “My servant devotes himself to me with nothing I love more than wishing well for others”. The noble companions (رضي الله عنهم) would meet to exchange words, solely to praise Allah ﷻ. Abdullah Ibn Umar رضي الله عنهم: “We would meet eachother and ask: ‘How are you?’, solely to praise Allah! ﷻ”. Our messenger ﷺ: “If someone pleases a believer, then Allah ﷻ will assuredly please him on the Day of Judgement!”. One cannot comprehend what is this pleasing would be! How does one attain half of wisdom? Our messenger ﷺ said: “Showing affection to people is indeed half of wisdom”. A great act which is belittled. Our messenger ﷺ: “The look of a person at his brother in yearning (I.e wanting better for him), is better than a months itikaaf in my masjid!”. A deed which requires such little effort yet rewards thousand-fold, literally. Our messenger ﷺ: “Whoever fulfills the desire of his brother, will have his sins forgiven”. ❗️A warning to those who are envious. Our messenger ﷺ said: “Envy and Iman cannot coexist in the heart of believer!”. Do not tread the satanic path of envy…
