THE STORY |
WHY
DO WE SHOUT IN ANGER?
-------------------------------
A saint asked his disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger?
Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'
His
disciples thought for a while, one of them said, 'Because
we lose our calm, we shout for that.'
'But,
why do you shout when the other person is just next to you?'
asked the saint. 'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her
with a soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you're
angry?'
Disciples
gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint.
Finally
he explained, 'When two people are angry at each other,
their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they
must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they
are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other
through that great distance.'
Then
the saint asked, 'What happens when two people fall in love?
They do not shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because
their hearts are very close. The distance between them is
very small...'
The
saint continued, 'When they love each other even more, what
happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even
closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need
not whisper, they only look at each other and that's all.
That is how close two people are when they love each other.
MORAL:
said the saint: 'When you argue do not let your hearts get
distant, do not say words that distance each other more,
else there will come a day when the distance is so great
that you will not find the path to return!'

SUNNAH,
(PRACTISES OF MUHAMMAD Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) |
Abu Sa'eed Khudari RA says, "When Rasulullah (Sallallahu
Alayhi Wa Sallam) put on a new garment, he would in happiness
mention that garment's name. For example, 'Allah Ta'aala gave
me this Qamis (thowb, kurtah), 'Amaamah (turban) sheet, etc"
Then recited this du'aa:
'Allahumma
lakal hamdu kama kasauw- tanihi, as-aluka khayrahu wa-khayra
ma-suni'a lahu wa-a'u- dhu bika min sharrihi wa-sharri ma-suni'a
lahu'.
Translation:
"O Allah, all praise and thanks to You for clothing
me with this (garment). I ask You for the good of it and the
good of what it was made for, and I ask Your protection from
the evil of it and theevil of what it was made for."
COMMENTARY
The goodness and badness of a garment is evident and 'for
the good and bad for which it was made' means forsummer and
winter, elegance etc. For whatever reason it is worn, the
goolness in it is that it may be used to obtain Allah's pleasure,
like performing 'ibaadah (devotion) with it. To use it for
a bad cause would be in disobeying Allah or to create pride,
arrogance etc. |

THE SMILE |
CRAZY
OR STUPID
------------------
A truck driver was doing his usual delivery to the Institute
of Mental Health. He discovered a flat tyre when he was about
to go home. He jacked up the truck and took the flat tyre
down.
When he was about to fix the spare tyre, he accidentally dropped
all the bolts into the drain. As he can't fish the bolts out,
he started to panic. A patient happened to walk past and asked
the driver what happened. The driver thought to himself, since
there's nothing much he can do; he told the patient the whole
incident.
The
patient laughed at him & said "can't even fix such
a simple problem... no wonder you are destined to be a truck
driver..." Here's what you can do, take one bolt each
from the other 3 tyres and fix it onto this tyre. Then drive
to the nearest workshop and replace the missing ones, easy
as that! The driver was very impressed and asked "You're
so smart but why are you here at the Institute of Mental Health?"
Patient
replied: "Hello, I stay here because I'm crazy not STUPID!" |
