Those who are jealous of others are contesting the Decision of the Almighty, dropping their faith to a very low level.
The Almighty is the sole Decider as to who will have what amount in terms of wealth, health, knowledge, beauty, intellect, wisdom, contentment, success in every aspect of life etc. Nobody has a say in this Divine Decree!
So when others are jealous of us, they are upset with the Almighty's Decision and have primarily declared war against Him before their enmity with us. What type of success would such a person expect in his or her life?
This is why we have been warned of the detrimental nature of the damage caused by jealousy to our faith to begin with, to our other good deeds which are eaten away as a result and then to our overall well-being. It never pays to be jealous of others in any way.
May the Almighty protect us from this dangerous disease. Aameen

I am now on mufti says after a good few months and today I'm on here for the first time after a while, just another quote
DON'T LOSE ALLAH
"It is better to lose something for the Almighty than to lose the Almighty for something." Mufti Ismail Menk
Signs Of a Hypocrite The signs of a hypocrite are that when he speaks he lies, when he promises he breaks the promise, when he is entrusted he betrays & when he is in an argument he screams & yells.
Hypocrisy is to display outwardly that which is contrary to the inward condition.
It is important that each one of us works very hard to identify such weaknesses within ourselves & remedy them as best as we can. This will help purify the heart & make all our acts of worship much more satisfying & meaningful.
May the Almighty protect us from all forms of hypocrisy. Aameen

Asalaamualykum, I really apologize for not posting things on www.muftisays.com for a while jzk
When you advise them against something for their own good, they will say you are against them. When you don't advise them they will say you didn't care for them. When they still do it anyway and fail, they will blame you for their failure.
In their eyes YOU will always be to blame, so don't forget to pray for them over & above what you do for them.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
