Why hate people?

By Abdullah Ibn Adam



Here is something important for us that I came across in the Qur'an.

Firstly, lets think about this:

Why do we HATE people, because of their actions/belief?

Why not just hate evil actions/ideas, and try to remove evil from each other?

Now, lets look at this:

A patient, who has illness,
What would be our reaction towards diseased people?
Will we hate them because they have diseases?

Basically,

It is very easy to say words (blame/criticize);

It is very hard to bear, and promote good work.

Al-Qur'an [Fussilat - 041 v 33-35]

Who is better in speech than one who calls (men) to Allah, works righteousness and says "I am of those who bow in Islam"?
Nor can Goodness and Evil be equal. Repel (Evil) with what is better: then will he between whom and thee was hatred become as it were thy friend and intimate!
And no one will be granted such goodness except those who exercise patience and self-restraint none but persons of the greatest good fortune.

The Qur'an certainly guides those who want guidance & then work for it. It EVEN guides to those who do not know Arabic language (but have translation), like myself. However studying Qur'an in Arabic will be even better.

 

Allah Knows Best
