A’oodhu-Billahi-Minash-shaytanir-Rajeem.
Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem.
Laa ilaaha illallah Muhammad’ur Rasoolullah.
🤲 A’oodhu billahi an akoona minal jaahileen.
أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ
[I seek refuge in Allah from being among the ignorant.]
🤲 Allahumma arinal-haqqa haqqan warzuqnat-tiba’ahu, wa arinal-baatila baatilan, warzuqnaj-tinabahu, wa laa taj’alhu multabisan ‘alayna fanadilla, waj’alna lill’muttaqeena imaamaa.
اللَّهُمَّ أَرِنَا الْحَقَّ حَقًّا وَارْزُقْنَا اتِّبَاعَهُ، وَأَرِنَا الْبَاطِلَ بَاطِلًا وَارْزُقْنَا اجْتِنَابَهُ، وَلَا تَجْعَلْهُ مُلْتَبِسًا عَلَيْنَا فَنَضِلَّ، وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا
[O Allah! show us the truth as truth, and inspire us to follow it. Show us falsehood(evil) as falsehood(evil), and inspire us to abstain from it and do not confuse us regarding the reality of falsehood(evil) so that we will not be led astray by it, and make us leaders for the believers.]

and Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam as Allah’s Prophet and Messenger.]
🌟💎💌 Hadith:- May Allahﷻ have mercy on the narrators of this Hadith:
The Prophet(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said,
الدِّينُ النَّصِيحَةُ
“The deen(religion) is naseeha(corrective advice, good counsel and sincere conduct).”
We(the companions) said, “To whom?”
Heﷺ said,
1️⃣🔹“To Allah,
2️⃣🔹His Book,
3️⃣🔹His Messengerﷺ, and
4️⃣🔹to the leaders of the Muslims and
5️⃣🔹their common folk.”
📚 Hadith 7, 40 Hadith an-Nawawi; Sahih Muslim 55; Sunan an-Nasa’i 4197; Sunan an-Nasa’i 4198; Sunan an-Nasa’i 4200; Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1926; Bulugh al-Maram, Book 16, Hadith 1532; Sunan Abi Dawud 4944; Sunan an-Nasa’i 4199.
🟣Commentary:- Though these words of wisdom can never be interpreted properly & completely with our limited understanding & capabilities, trying best to put forward below points👇 (in context of above hadith):
♦️Ibn al-Katheer said, “Naseeha is a word which is used to describe a sentence, and that sentence is, ‘Wanting good for the thing you are giving naseeha to’, so it is impossible to explain naseeha in one word.”
♦️The linguistic meaning of Naseeha is:
🔹To purify
🔹To gather that which is dispersed
♦️ We can summarise Naseeha to mean “Wanting good for someone with a sincere heart which is free from any defects/deficiencies and wanting all good for that particular person.
♦️ Naseeha is one of the great and noble qualities of the prophets(peace be upon them).
♦️ The companions asked “To whom?” which shows their eagerness to implement the knowledge they learn.
**************
1️⃣♦️ Naseeha to Allahﷻ involves:
🔹 Believing in Him.
🔹Establishing what is obligatory.
🔹Thanking Him, and bringing/guiding people to do this.
🔹Purifying our hearts for Allah, which is done by fulfilling His rights to the best way possible, and with ihsan.
🔹Striving hard in worship, and doing more Sunnah actions.
🔹Cleaning our minds and thoughts from deviant ideologies.
🔹Being sincere in our worship. We love for His sake and hate for His sake.
🔹Glorifying Allah subḥānahu wa ta’āla and His laws and recognising His blessings over us.
**************
2️⃣♦️ Naseeha to His book involves:
🔹By learning Qur’an, acting according to it, and guiding people to this.
🔹Believing in the entire Qur’an and acting upon it.
🔹Having great love and glorification for it.
🔹Striving hard to understand it, contemplate over its meanings, and adorn ourselves with the manners it teaches us.
🔹Be pure when holding it
🔹Ensure we maintain connection with Qur’an by reading & practising the Qur’an.
**************
3️⃣♦️ Naseeha to His Messengerﷺ involves:
🔹 Believing in him and putting his statement above any other human.
🔹 By following him, assisting him, and defending him.
🔹Having eagerness to know more about him, and study his seerah like how the previous generations/his followers used to do.
🔹Follow his Sunnah.
🔹Trying to learn more about his manners and emulating them.
🔹Loving what he loves and hating what he hates.
**************
4️⃣♦️ Naseeha to the leaders of the Muslims(those responsible for their affairs) involves:
🔹Respecting them and obeying their orders in what pleases Allahﷻ and His Messengerﷺ.
“O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those of you who are in authority” (Surah Al-Nisa’, 4:59), and by correcting them when they err.
🔹Wanting good for them.
🔹Asking Allahﷻ to guide them to the truth.
🔹Making du’aa for them and wanting the ummah to be united under them.
🔹Advising them personally and not publicly, and remembering the statement of the scholars, “However you are is however your rulers will be”.
**************
5️⃣♦️ Naseeha to the common folk of the Muslims involves:
🔹 Guiding them to what contains their happiness in this life and the hereafter(duniya & aakhirah).
🔹Offering them assistance and protection.
🔹Advising them sincerely towards goodness in all matters as much as possible.
🔹 Loving for them what we love for ourselves and hating for them what we hate for ourselves.
🔹Respecting their elders and showing mercy to their youngsters.
🔹Being happy when they are happy and sad when they are sad.
🔹Carrying no envy for them in our hearts and wishing good for them.
**************
♦️Few TakeAways from this Hadith:
🔹We need to be eager to seek more knowledge and implement what we learn, just as the sahabah were.
🔹Giving/Having naseeha is an integral part of Islam.
🔹Study more about Allahﷻ.
🔹Never look down upon or belittle a ruling that has been decided by Allahﷻ.
🔹Never abandon the Qur’an. In the tafseer of [Al-Furqan:30], Ibn Katheer said abandoning the Qur’an can be by:
🔸Not listening to it.
🔸Not reading it.
🔸Not acting upon it.
🔸Not believing in ALL of its rulings.
🔸Not contemplating upon its meanings.
🔸Leaving it for something else example., poetry, music, idle talk etc.
🔹Study the seerah of the prophetﷺ.
🔹Send salutations on the prophetﷺ whenever he is mentioned.
🔹Abu Bakr(radhiyallahu anhu) didn’t supersede everyone by his actions, but because of his love for Allahﷻ, and his naseeha to His creation.
🔹Give sincere advice to fellow beings.
🔹Try to implement all of what the naseeha to Allah subḥānahu wa ta’āla, His book, His Messengerﷺ, the leaders of the Muslims and the common folk of Muslims involves [a reminder first to myself].
**************
Only Allāh subḥānahu wa ta’āla knows the best…
All the praise and appreciation is due to Allah…
