Angel Jibril (Gabriel) came to Prophet Muhammed (saws) and said: O
Messenger of Allah! Allah (SWT) has sent you a gift which He has not
given to anyone before.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: What is that gift? Angel Jibril
(Gabriel) replied: It is patience.
But there is a virtue better than patience. Prophet Muhammed
(saws)asked: What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: It is
contentment.
There is still a virtue better than contentment. Prophet Muhammed
(saws) asked: What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: It is
pleasure of Allah (SWT).
But there is a virtue better than that. Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked:
What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: It is piety.
Yet there is a virtue better than that. Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked:
What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: It is devotion.
But there is a virtue better than that. Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked:
What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: Sure knowledge.
Yet there is a virtue better than that. Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked:
What is it? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: The way to attain all of
them is to put trust in Allah (SWT).
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked O Jibril (Gabriel)! What is the meaning
of putting trust in Allah (SWT)? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied:
Knowing that His creatures neither harm nor benefit anyone. They
neither give nor withhold anything. One must stop having hope in
creatures. When a man reaches this position, he will not do anything
save for Him, his heart does not go astray, he fears no one save Him
and he does not set his hope on anyone but Him. This is the meaning of
putting trust in Allah (SWT).
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: O Jibril (Gabriel)! What is the meaning
of patience? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: Man must have forbearance
and patience in afflictions as in joys. He should never complain of
His Creator to the people.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: What is the meaning of contentment?
Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: To be content with whatever in this
world and to thank Allah (SWT) for the small things he has.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: what is the meaning of pleasure of
Allah (SWT)? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: To be pleased with Allah
(SWT) but not to be pleased with one's own deeds.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: O Jibril (Gabriel)! What is the meaning
of piety? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: A pious man loves whatever
His creator loves and hates whatever He hates. He is careful about
what is lawful and leaves of what is unlawful, for what is lawful is
counted and what is unlawful will entail punishment. He has mercy on
every Muslim as he has on himself. He shuns useless words as he shuns
what is unlawful. He abstains from overeating as he keeps away from a
corpse with bad smell. He keeps away from the embellishments of world
as he keeps away from Fire. His desires are not far-fetched and death
is present before his eyes.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: O Jibril (Gabriel)! What is the meaning
of Devotion? Angel Jibril (Gabriel) replied: A devoted person is one
who does not ask for anything from people until he obtains it and
whenever he obtained it, he is pleased with it. Also if he has
something extra, he will give it away for the sake of Allah (SWT). The
fact that he does not ask for something from others is admittance of
his being a servant of Allah (SWT). He is pleased with Allah (SWT) and
Allah (SWT) is pleased with him. He gives away when he needs it more
than others.
Prophet Muhammed (saws) asked: What is sure knowledge? Angel Jibril
(Gabriel) replied: A man of sure knowledge acts in a way as if he sees
Allah (SWT). Even if he does not reach the degree of seeing Allah
(SWT), he knows that Allah (SWT) sees him and is sure that what he has
and what he has not is what Allah (SWT) wills.
These were some of signs of putting trust in Allah (SWT) and having piety.

*- 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)./-
