Friends, sacrifice yourself for Allah. Whoever sacrifices himself for the Master of the Universe, Allah grants him the pleasure and delight of all the women of the world, the taste of all the sweetmeats of this world and the pleasure of all the biryani and kababs of the universe in His name. The capsule of all the pleasures of this world is in the name of Allah.

If He had no taste, how could He have created taste in these things? If Allah had no delight, how could He have created taste in kababs and chickens and how could He have juice in sugar cane? If He has no juice, how can He create juice in sugar cane which provides sugar for the whole world?

Moulana Jalalud-deen Rûmi (Rahimahullah) says,

“O heart, is sugar sweeter or the Creator of sugar?” Is the moon more handsome or the Creator of the moon?

Where are going after leaving Allah? The consequence of all those involved in romance is the organs of urine and faeces. Thousands of people have lost their honour there.

Hazrat Hakeemul Ummat Thanwi (رحمۃ اللہ علیہ) said:

“Every sin is a sign of stupidity and foolishness.“

Anyone who commits sin, then this is a sign that there is some deficiency in his intellect. He is disobeying such a Being in whose hands is our life and death, our health and sickness, peace and comfort, good and evil end. If his intellect was sound he would never commit sin. As for the one who casts evil glances, Hazrat says that he is extremely foolish. By casting glances he attains nothing other than restlessness in his heart. By looking at a beauty, one never attains him/her, rather one gets uneasiness and the heart becomes restless when one remembers him/her.

Casting Evil glances is clearly forbidden by the (نص قطعی) clear and explicit text of the Qur’aan. Allah Ta’ala says:

قل للمومنین یغضوا من ابصارھم

“O Nabi (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) Tell the believing men to lower their gazes.”
(Sura Nur ; Ayat 30, Juz 18)

(Meaning, don’t look at ghair mahram women and handsome boys). Therefore he who casts evil glances, is opposing the clear and explicit command of Qur’aan, and one who opposes the clear and explicit command of Qur’aan is guilty of committing a HARAAM act. Thus, to save oneself from this sin, it is sufficient to meditate upon the fact that the one who casts evil glances is opposing a commandment of the Qur’aan. In other words, he is disobeying Allah Ta’ala.

Allah did not mention taqwa first. He first mentioned the fact that He created the ability to sin within man. Now it is your duty not to fulfill the urge to sin. This will create taqwa (piety) in you. If you want to obtain piety, then all you have to do is abstain from sin. Achieve Reward without Doing any Work

The owners of factories first make their employees work and then reward them. But in this case, Allah is granting reward for not doing any work. Do not steal, speak lies and do not look at women. By not doing these things, you will be rewarded with piety and Allah’s friendship. What is taqwa? Taqwa is when you have the urge to sin but you abstain due to the fear of Allah.

Rasulullah () said that the one who has an atom’s weight of pride in his heart will not enter jannah. He will not even get the scent of Jannah. This is the material of the atom bomb of pride that it deprives one of the scent of heaven. Therefore, one should have concern about it. We should not have this atom bomb within ourselves without knowing about it. Consult the bomb disposal squad, namely the Ahlullah (saints) to rid oneself of this bomb.

What is Pride? Rasulullah () has apprised us of its ingredients namely,

1. Non-acceptance of the truth.
2. Regarding people as inferior.

1. It is sunnat to use the Miswaak at the time of every Wudhu. (Abu Dawood, Vol. 1, pg 8 (at. Targheeb wat Tarheeb)

2. The sunnat method of holding the Miswaak according to what Hazrat Abdullah Ibne Mas’ood () has narrated is as follows:
Place the small finger of the right hand below the Miswaak. Place the thumb below the head of the Miswaak. The remaining three fingers will be placed above. (Shami-  Vol. 1, pg 85)
