O Believers, You are Superior

A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

(Qur’ān 03:139). ‘Wa-lā tahinū wa-lā taḥzanū wa-antumu l-ʾalawna in kuntum muʾminīn’, ‘So do not weaken and do not be sad, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, “Do not see yourself as low. Do not be upset. Do not be sad. You are up high. Your rank is high”. If you are a believer, do not see yourself as low among other people, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A believer is above Kafirs and faithless ones with the permission of Allah ﷻ. His rank is high.

Nowadays, Kufr is the fashion in this world. Rejecting is the fashion, opposing Allah ﷻ is the fashion. Do not think that is cool and do not imitate them. Do not be embarrassed in front of them, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They call it the pressure of the street. They are putting pressure on youngsters everywhere. They are despising youngsters who are on the right way. They are despicable themselves. They have no Iman and no value in the presence of Allah ﷻ. Therefore, people with Iman can easily stand against them. What they say is false and has no value. They have built paper castles which will break down in a minute. They have no ruling. Do not conform to them. Do not accept what they say. They will accept it later.

If you obey them, you will have prevented them from goodness and the right way. Invite them to Iman. Let them learn about the truth. Let them not live in lies. People are spending all their lives in lies since their birth till they die. They are wasting and losing their lives, whereas those who are on the way of Allah ﷻ are in profit since their first day up until they die. And their Akhirah is the most profitable. They will have lived with truth and not lies, not in illusion. Those who live in illusion are faithless and Kafirs. All their lives are meaningless. They build fake lives as they like which are absolutely useless. That is nothing but loss.

Therefore, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “Your rank is high. The rank of believers is high. The despicable and low ones are the Kafirs without Iman”. May Allah ﷻ not let us be from them. May our ranks always be high in the presence of Allah ﷻ insha’Allah.

There mustn’t be humility in front of Kafirs. Humility must be shown in front of believers and Muslims. Therefore, never despise yourself in front of Kafirs. Do not ever do that. They are the despicable ones. May Allah ﷻ give strength and Iman to all of us. Insha’Allah this is the advice to youngsters insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Ayat and Surahs, Yasin, Tasbihat, Tahlilat and Salawat from all over the world. We gift them firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu lBayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Mu’mins and Mashayikh, souls of our late relatives. May Allah ﷻ accept it. May their good goals be reached. May they have strength of Iman. May they have abundance and Barakah. May there be cure. May they be happy here and hereafter.

Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.
