Share Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And We have already sent Messengers before you to their peoples, and they came to them with clear evidences; then We took retribution from those who committed crimes, and incumbent upon Us was support of the believers.{]Quran 30:47[
The Companions, may Allaah be pleased with them, were keen on knowing the temptations in order to learn the way of salvation and they did so from the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. The great Companion Huthayfah, may Allaah be pleased with him, would frequently ask the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, about evil so that he would avoid it.
In a Hadeeth )narration( on his authority he said,
“People used to ask the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, about good and I used to ask him about evil for fear that it would befall me. Hence, I said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, we were in a state of ignorance and evil, then Allaah brought us this good. Will there be any evil after this good?’ The Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:‘Yes’.Huthayfah, may Allaah be pleased with him, asked, ‘Will there be any good after that evil?’ He said:‘Yes, but it would be tainted with Dakhan )i.e., intermixed with evil(.’
I asked, ‘What will its Dakhan be?’ He said:‘There will be some people who will guide )people( according to something other than my guidance and will lead them according to something other than my Sunnah )tradition(. You will see their actions and disapprove of them.’Huthayfah, may Allaah be pleased with him, said, ‘Will there be any evil after that good?’ He said:‘Yes, there will be some people who will invite others to the doors of Hell, and whoever accepts their invitation will be thrown in it )by them(.’
Huthayfah, may Allaah be pleased with him, said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, describe those people to us.’ He said:‘They will be from among us and speak our language )i.e., from among the Arabs(.’Huthayfah, may Allaah be pleased with him, asked, ‘What do you command me to do if I witness that?’ He said:‘Adhere to the community of Muslims and their leader.’Huthayfah asked, ‘What if they have neither a community nor a leader?’ He said:‘Keep away from all those different sects, even if you have to bite on )i.e. eat( the root of a tree, until you die while you are still in that state.’”]Al-Bukhaari and Muslim[
c- Loving desires and the dominance of desires, including the desire for eating, sex, offspring, money, position and the subsequent attitudes of flattering, ostentation, bribing, loving to show off and staying silent about the truth.
All these desires are temptations unless one fears Allaah The Almighty. This is because the true believer will not speak, move or look unduly, because he is certain that he will be questioned about his hearing, sight and heart.
Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And of the people is he who worships Allaah on an edge. If he is touched by good, he is reassured by it; but if he is struck by trial, he turns on his face ]to the other direction[. He has lost ]this[ world and the Hereafter. That is what is the manifest loss.{]Quran 22:11[
So, sister, beware lest you should like for yourself and for your family to live on the margin, pursuing desires, or be satisfied with the minor transient pleasures of the world, and decline what Allaah The Almighty has prepared for His righteous slaves in the world and the Hereafter. That is because Allaah The Almighty likes what is sublime and hates what is trivial.
Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}O you who have believed, indeed, among your wives and your children are enemies to you, so beware of them. But if you pardon and overlook and forgive - then indeed, Allaah is Forgiving and Merciful. Your wealth and your children are but a trial, and Allaah has with Him a great reward. So fear Allaah as much as you are able and listen and obey and spend ]in the way of Allaah[; it is better for your selves. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul - it is those who will be the successful.{]Quran 64:14-16[
d- Committing sins and misdeeds and violating sanctities. This leads to widespread loss of life, murder, loss of integrity and trust, withholding rights, consuming Riba )interest(, consuming the wealth of orphans, consuming the wealth of others illegally, not paying Zakaah )purifying alms(, drinking alcohol, neglecting Hijaab )Islamic covering(, committing adultery and sodomy, in addition to other forms of immorality. Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:
•}So let those beware who dissent from the Prophet's order, lest Fitnah strike them or a painful punishment.{]Quran 24:63[
•}Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by ]reason of[ what the hands of people have earned so He may let them taste part of ]the consequence of[ what they have done that perhaps they will return ]to righteousness[. Say, ]O Muhammad[, “Travel through the land and observe how was the end of those before. Most of them were associators ]of others with Allaah[.{]Quran 30:41-42[
In a Hadeeth )narration( on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allaah be pleased with him, he said that the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:“Woe unto the Arabs because of an impending evil! Successful is the one who restrains his hand )i.e. from being involved in fighting at the times of Fitnah(.”]Saheeh[
Allaah The Almighty Is merciful to us and we supplicate Him not to punish us for the actions committed by the foolish people who live among us.
e- Loving the world and having a strong inclination to it. Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to ]some[ categories of them, ]its being but[ the splendor of worldly life by which We test them. And the provision of your Lord is better and more enduring. And enjoin prayer upon your family ]and people[ and be steadfast therein. We ask you not for provision; We provide for you, and the ]best[ outcome is for ]those of[ righteousness.{]Quran 20:131-132[
In a Hadeeth )narration( on the authority of Thawbaan, may Allaah be pleased with him, he said that the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:“People will soon summon one another to attack you as people, when eating, invite others to share their dish"Someone said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah! Will that be because of our small number at that time?' He said:‘No, you will be numerous at that time, but you will be like the scum left behind after a flood. Weakness will be put in your hearts, and terror will be removed from the hearts of your enemies, because you love the world and hate death.’]Saheeh[
