The Crucified Ones in History is a book full of stories about revenge-seekers who inflicted harsh punishments on their enemies. What one realizes as one reads this book (which is probably what the author wants us to realize) is that killing their enemies was not enough to quench their thirst for revenge. The irony that the author conveys is that the crucified person, for instance, ceases to feel pain after his soul departs from his body. Meanwhile, the revenge-seeking killer will never find peace or happiness because the fire of revenge has engrossed, or rather taken over, his entire being. Read more ›

Ahmad ibn Yusuf wrote that man positively knows that ease comes after difficulty, just as the light of day comes after the dark of night. In spite of this knowledge, the weaker part of his nature takes over when calamity strikes.

Contemplating the patience of those who were tested in the past is a means of strengthening one’s determination. Read more ›

1. Wasting time.
2. Talking about matters that don’t concern us, matters that are none of our business.
“From the goodness of one’s Islam is leaving alone that which does not concern him.”
3. Being preoccupied with trivial issues. Listening to rumors, predictions, and gossip are three common examples. Having these characteristic results in paranoia, anxiety, and a lack of purpose in life.
So Allah gave them the reward of this world, and the excellent reward of the Hereafter. (Qur ‘an 3: 148)
My Guidance shall neither go astray, nor fall into distress and misery. (Qur’an 20: 123)

To be successful means for you to have good qualities which outnumber and overshadow your bad qualities? When this becomes a reality in your life, you will find that people will shower compliments upon you, even for qualities that you do not possess. People will not accept criticism of you either, even if what is said about you is true – a mountain is not increased in worthiness by an extra rock nor is it diminished by one less rock. Read more ›
