SURAH Al-Muzzammil 73: (The Wrapped up one)
This Surah is Makki, and it has 20 verses and 2 Sections.
With the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Very-Merciful

"..and devote yourself to Him with exclusive devotion. [73:8]"

COMMENTARY: The Qur'an denounces monasticism thus: "...As for monasticism, it was invented by them" [57:27] and a Hadith denounces it thus: "There is no monasticism in Islam."

Rahbaniyyah or 'monasticism', in the technical language of Shari'ah, signifies 'to abandon the world and sever all ties which involves the giving up of all pleasures and all lawful and pure things, believing that doing so is 'worship' and thinking that without avoiding them one would not be able to attain the good pleasure of Allah. It also means to sever human relationships in such a manner that human rights are not taken care of or they are violated. This verse enjoins a different type of Tabattul or severance of relationship. It means that one's relationship with human beings should not overpower his relationship with Allah - whether in terms of belief or in terms of practice. Such a detachment is not contradictory to any business relations, or social contracts and transactions, like marriage and family ties. In fact, they can be combined. Tabattul, in this sense, is the characteristic of all Prophets especially that of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam). Their lives bear ample testimony to this type of Tabattul which the pious elders alternatively term as Ikhlaas (sincerity). [Mazhari]

One day Nasruddin and his friends decided to play a joke on the people in a village. So Nasruddin drew a crowd, and lied to them about a gold mine in a certain place. When everybody ran to get their hands on the gold, Nasruddin started running with them. When asked by his friends why he was following them, he said "So many people believed it, that I think it may be true!"

A thing is not necessarily true simply because many people believe it. It is very easy for many people to believe the same lie.

Your own lies may return to deceive you; and in believing them, you make yourself a fool.
