Once Sheikh Ibne Sammak (may Allah havemercy on him) paid a visit to a
king. It so chanced that, when the Sheikh greeted him, the king was
holding a glass of water in his hand. He said to the Sheikh, "Give me
a word of advice." The Sheikh said,"Suppose you could have this glass
of water only at the cost of your entire kingdom and you have to
choose between dying of thirst or giving your kingdom away, which one
would you prefer?" The king replied, "I would naturally prefer a glass
of water and part with my entire kingdom." TheSheikh said, "Then, I do
not understand why anyone should take joy in a kingdom which is worth
only a glass of water."

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
