Sayyidina ‘Ali says,

To fear Allah ﷻ is the head of wisdom. It is the head of every goodness. Because a person who is cautious, afraid and ashamed of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn’t do badness. He is protected from all kinds of badness. He doesn’t let it out of his head.

People of the present time are not ashamed of anything, unfortunately. They are not shy. They are not afraid of Allah ﷻ. There is a saying, fear the one who doesn’t fear Allah ﷻ. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to people. Fearing Allah ﷻ is not an embarrassing thing. But according to people of this time, it is embarrassing. Obeying Him ﷻ is not good. It doesn’t comply with their egos. It prevents the desires of their egos. It prevents them from doing badness. It prevents them from helping people. Therefore, they don’t want it.

They run after their egos. The whole world tells them to follow their egos. So they follow their egos. And all kinds of shame, all kinds of badness are done. They are encouraged to do so. They are prevented from goodness. People don’t hide anything anymore. In old times, they were ashamed and did things secretly. Nowadays, they say openly, “Follow your ego. Do what your ego wants. Don’t listen to anyone. There is freedom, do as much as you want.” They are giving you freedom to do badness. And then they complain “Why is the world in such a condition?” It will be, of course. If a person obeys his ego, he won’t find anything but badness.

All of humanity obeys their egos from elderlies to youngsters. The world is all mixed up. They say “We won’t help those who don’t do so. You are not allowing badness, we won’t help you.” Keep your help to yourself. May Allah ﷻ help us all insha’Allah. The help of Allah ﷻ is important. No matter if the rest help or not, people’s destiny will come anyway. But if Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla blocks it, no one can open the way. And if He ﷻ gives something, no one can prevent it.

Therefore, we must fear Allah ﷻ and do what He ﷻ orders as much as we can. And we repent for what we can’t do. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will accept our repentance. He ﷻ will help us. Don’t go against Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Going against Him ﷻ is foolishness. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May He ﷻ give mind and understanding to people. People are giving money to become crazy. What can you say?

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
