The Muslim has a mission in his life, and is required to be effective,
active, tolerant and social, mixing with other people and dealing with
them with tolerance and in accordance with the worthy Islamic
attitudes and behavior.
Allaah Almighty Says (what means): "And hold fast, all of you
together, to the Rope of Allaah (i.e. the Quran), and be not divided
among yourselves, and remember Allaah's Favour on you, for you were
enemies one toanther but He joined your hearts together, so that, by
His Grace, you became brethren (in Islamic faith), and you were on the
brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from it…" ] Quran 3:103]
Wherever the Muslim is found, hebecomes a beacon of guidance, and a
positive source of correction and education, through both his words
and deeds.
He has a good attitude towards others and treats them well. He isof
good and noble character, friendly, humble, gentle of speech and
tactful. He likes others and is liked by them. By doing so, he is
following the example of the Prophet as Anas reported that he was:
"The best of people in his attitude towards others." [Al-Bukhaari and
Muslim]
When a quarrel intensifies, when its roots go deeper, its thorns
become branches and branches increase in number, then the freshness of
the fruits of faith is adversely affected. Softness, sympathy,
satisfaction and peace,which are encouraged by the Islamic teachings,
receive a setback.
Performance of worship loses its righteousness, while the self getsno
benefit from it.
Many a time mutual quarrels perturb the persons who claim tobe wise.
When this happens, theytake recourse to lowly and superficial things,
and sometimesindulge in dangerous acts which only increase
difficulties and bring troubles. When a man is displeased, his eyes
become prejudiced and ignore the camel and object to gnat. Such eyes
do not appreciate the beauty of the peacock, for they only see its
uglyfeet and claws. If a slight defect is present, it turns the
molehill into a mountain. And sometimes the internal rancor and
jealousy affect them so badly that no hesitation is felt in inventing
imaginary stories.
Islam disapproves of all these manifestations of ill-feeling and
advises to abstain from them. It declares their avoidance as the most
virtuous form of worship.
The Prophet said: "Listen, mayI tell you something more important than
the fasting, the prayer and charity?" The people requested him to do
so. He said: "To keep the mutual relationship on the right footing,
because the defect in the mutual relationship is a thing which shaves
a thing clean. I do not mean that it shaves the hair, but that it
shaves (removes) the religion." [At-Tirmithi]
Many a time, Satan is not able to persuade wise men to worship idols,
but since he is very keen onmisguiding and ruining men, he manages to
succeed in driving them away from Allaah, so much so that these wise
men become more indifferent in respecting the rights of Allaah than
the idolaters themselves. The best method adopted by the devil for
this purpose is to sow the seeds of enmity in the hearts of the
people. When this enmity develops into a fire and open hostilities
result, he enjoys the scene. This fire burns man's present and future
into ashes and totally destroys their relationship and virtues.
The Messenger of Allaah said: "The Satan has been disappointed that he
would not be worshipped in the Arabian Peninsula, but he has not been
disappointed from kindling the fire of fighting among the people."
[Muslim]
It means that when wickedness takes roots in the hearts, when people
start hating love and brotherhood, and when these aredestroyed, people
then revert to cruelty and enmity, and break all those relations and
links which Allaah has commanded to be kept; thus spreading corruption
on this earth.
In order to remedy this disease, the most wonderful thing in a quarrel
is to forget it as it had never happened, because remembering it will
never be a sort of pleasure, while forgetting it will never be
harmless, and a good word is stronger than swords and spears.
Imaam Ibn Al-Qayyim said:"The origin of the enmity, evil and envy that
occurs between people is from the following of Al-Hawaa (the lowly
desire). The one who opposes his desire relieves his heart, body and
limbs, putting himself to ease and thus relieves others. Abu Bakr
Al-Warraak said: "When the desire prevails, the heart turns dark and
when it does so, the breast becomes straitened and when that happens,
the moral character deteriorates and consequently people will hate him
and he will hate them. Then think of the evil, enmity, neglect of
rights, etc. that arise from this mutual hatred."

-
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)./-

Keep away from enmity
What should he do about his paternal uncle who unlawfully took his house that he inherited from his father, and he cannot do anything about it?.
My father had full ownership of an expensive house in Pakistan. About
10 years ago, when I was 10 years old, he had passed away, and I have
been raised by a single mother. Our financial conditions are worsening
as my education needs are growing. However, my fathers brother had
taken the house unlawfully and has been living in there since my
father's death. Whenever my mother would ask for our house back, he
would threaten to humiliate her and destroy her. Since I had moved to
Canada right after my father's death, I'm not familiar with the laws
and authorities in Pakistan, and since Pakistan is failing to govern
itself, it has poor controls of policing and other enforcement
agencies. Also, since my uncle is a very dangerous person, I am afraid
of what he would do if I go there and try to take my property back. My
question is that, in such dangerous circumstances, am I still obliged
to take my rightful property? And if yes, are there any suggestions on
how I should go about doing so?
Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
What your uncle has done with this act of transgression – if what you
say is true – is a grave major sin. The inheritance must be given
after the death of the deceased to the legitimate heirs without any
wrongdoing or transgression. Allah, mayHe be exalted, said after
mentioning the shares of inheritance in His Book and after giving each
one who is entitledto a share his rightful share (interpretation of
the meaning):
"These are the limits (set by) Allah (or ordainments as regards laws
of inheritance), andwhosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad
SAW) will be admitted to Gardens under which rivers flow (in
Paradise), to abide therein, and that will be the great success.
And whosoever disobeysAllah and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and
transgresses His limits, He will cast him into the Fire, to abide
therein; and he shall have a disgraceful torment."
[an-Nisa' 4:13, 14].
What is meant is: these details about shares of inheritance are the
limits set by Allah, which must be adhered to and not transgressed.
Tafseer as-Sa'di, p. 170.
Your uncle has no right to the inheritance at all, because he is
blocked from inheriting by you. Brothers and sisters do not inherit
anything when there is a child of the deceased.
Undoubtedly the right tothe house is yours, and itis within your
rights to try to get possession of itby all possible means.
But if the situation is as described, that the government's authority
in such cases is weak and you have little support or help, and
youthink it most likely that your uncle is dangerous and that he will
never give you your house except with a great deal of trouble or he
will harm you or your mother, or the like, then you do not have to try
toget it back when the situation is as described. Rather you should be
patient in the hope that Allah will give you relief and a way out, or
until you gain the power to kick him out by the help of Allah. Do not
expose yourself to trouble that you cannot bear; rather delegate the
matter to trustworthy lawyers you can trust to help you by legal
means. If that is notpossible and you give upyour rights for fear of
further harm, there is noblame on you and you do not have to try to
take it back at all.
Imam Muslim narrated inhis Saheeh (201) that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah
be pleased with him) said: A man came to the Messenger of Allah
(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of
Allah, what do you think if a man comes and wants to take my wealth?
He said: "Do not give him your wealth!" He said: What if he fightsme?
He said: "Fight him back." He said: What if he kills me? He said:
"Then you will be a martyr." He said: What if I kill him? He said: "He
will be in Hell."
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
This is what the fuqaha' call an assailant, who is awrongdoer with no
justification for his wrongdoing. If what he wants is the wealth, it
is permissible to ward him off by any possible means. If he cannot be
warded off except by fighting, then he should be fought, but if one
does not want to fight and gives up some of thewealth, that is
permissible. But if what he wants is to commit animmoral action – such
as if he wants to commit zina with a man's mahram, or he wants to
commit indecent acts with a woman or a slave and the like – then it is
obligatory to protect oneself by any possible means, even by
fighting,and it is not permissible to allow him to do that under any
circumstances. This is different from wealth, which it is permissible
tolet him take, because allowing him to take wealth is permissible
butallowing him to commit indecent acts with oneself or one's mahrams
is not permissible.
End quote from as-Siyaasah ash-Shar'iyyah, 71.
Imam an-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Protecting wealth
is permissible butnot obligatory. With regard to the words of the
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), "Do not give it to
him," what is meantis: you do not have to give it to him; it does
notmean that it is haraam to give it to him.
End quote from Sharh Muslim by an-Nawawi, 11/202
If you lose any of your rights and are not able to get them in this
world, then you have an issue to settle with the one who has wronged
you, and that will benefit you, in sha Allah, on the Day when there
will be neither dirhams nor dinars (i.e., no money or wealth), and
there will only be good deeds and bad deeds.
Al-Bukhaari (2449) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased
with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah
be upon him) said: "Whoever has wronged his brother with regard to his
honour or anything else, let him seek his forgiveness today, before
there will be no dinar and no dirham, and if he has any good deeds to
his credit they will be taken from him in a manner commensurate with
the wrong he did, and if he has no good deeds, thensome of his
counterpart's bad deeds will be taken and added to his burden."
See also the answer to question no. 92650 , in which there is a
discussion on referring for judgement to man-made laws, which is
permissible in order toget back one's rights in cases of necessity. -

What is the ruling on paying membership feesto Islamic societies and centres in Western countries?.
I want to join an islamic society in europe. This society includes a
mosque and dars.
The shura demands a membership fee. Is this halal?
Praise be to Allah.
If the situation is as described, there is nothing wrong with paying
the fees demanded by the societyand this is their right. If the one
who pays the fee intends, in addition to benefiting from the
activities, that what he pays is to support that society, then he will
be rewarded for that intention, in sha Allah, especially since the
Islamic societies and centres in Western countries are doing important
work, such as teaching the Muslims about their religion and striving
to spread Islam in those countries. They provide a good environment
for the Muslims there, so supporting them financially and in other
ways comes under the heading of calling people to Allah.

Islamic Stories, - Story of a pious woman at the time of Ferawoon
On the Prophet Muhammad's (sul Allahu alayhi wassalaam) Night Journey
to Jerusalem:
The Prophet (sul Allahu alayhi wassalaam) smelled a very nice odor.He
asked Jibril about thispleasant scent and Jibril informed him this
good smell was coming from the grave of the woman whose duty used to
be to comb Pharaoh's daughter's hair.
This woman was a good,pious believer. One day, as she was combing
Pharaoh's daughter's hair, the comb fell from her hand. At this she
said, "Bismillah." Pharaoh's daughter asked her, "Do you have a god
other than my father?" The woman said, "Yes. My Lord and the Lord of
your father isAllah." Pharaoh's daughter told her father what had
happened. Pharaoh demanded this woman blaspheme and leave Islam, but
she refused. At that, Pharaohthreatened to kill her children.
He brought a great pot of water and built a great fire under it.
Whenthe water boiled, Pharaoh brought her children and started to drop
them into that pot one after the other. Throughout all this, the woman
remained steadfast to Islam, even when Pharaoh reached her youngest
child--a little boy still breast feeding--but she felt pityfor him. At
that, Allah enabled this child to speak. He said to his mother, "O
Mother, be patient. The torture of the Hereafter is far moresevere
than the torture of this life, and do not be reluctant, because you
are right."
At this the woman requested Pharaoh collect her bones and the bones of
her children and bury them in the same grave. Pharaoh promised her
that--then dropped her into that boiling water. She died as a martyr.
The good odor the Prophet (sul Allahu alayhi wassalaam) smelled coming
from hergrave is an indication of her high status.
[May Allah make us like these people.]
