Those Spiteful People!

و من الشَقاوة أن تحبَ
و من تحبُ يحبُ غيرك
أو أن تريد الخير للأن
سان و هو يريد ضيرك

“And from misery is that you love,
and (the one) who you love, loves other than you,
or that you want good for a person,
and he wants to hurt you”.

(Imam Shafaee RH)

Assalamualaykum WaRahmatuAllah

I’ve often come to realise that people can mistake your true intentions. The time that it hurts the most is when you’re being truly sincere and you wish only good for that person or you wish to be only sincere with them, but they retaliate in such a manor that they end up hurting you. It does kinda take alot out of you.

One thing which always has to be remembered, and I try to keep a constant reminder of it, is the ayah in Surah Yunus where Allah (swt) states that No hurt can come besides from Allah, and only he can remove it.

Everything in life is an experience. Like the Hadith says that A muslim never falls into the same hole twice. Basically we learn from our first mistake, even falling into a hole teaches us lessons, going through life we’re bound to fall in holes everywhere, its the experience of life, the experience that carves our character and makes us who we are. So if we go through life avoiding those holes, when we fall into a major one, we won’t have the experience of how to handle it.

So be thankful for every little thing. Even the people in life who seem to set out to just hurt you. Its all a learning experience and you can only rise out of it a better person
