show more- All the bad characteristics in a human being, can be pictured to be fishes, living in a pond. And the water in that pond, giving life to these fishes, is the attribute of Anger.
- So Anger is the mother of all bad deeds. One who can control anger, is able to control all the other bad sifat. Hence the Prophet said, the strongest one amongst you, is the one who can control his Anger.
- Tariqah trains mureeds to empty this pond of the attribute of Anger (by the practice of Solat Najat). Once there is no more water (Anger) in this pond, all the fish (bad attributes), will die and disappear from your behaviour.
- All the good characteristics in a human being, can be pictured to be fishes, living in a pond. And the water in that pond, keeping all these fishes alive, is the attribute of Sincerity (Ikhlas).
- Hence, if our actions are not sincere, all the good deeds we do are rejected. Just like a pond with no water, all the fish will die.
- Tariqah trains mureeds to be sincere.
- Sincerity is a secret of Allahﷻ, it is from His Treasures.
- So ask from Him, to be granted Sincerity in all our deeds.
- Most believers forget to ask for faith and sincerity, in their doas.
