The Beauty of Deen Islam

Faith is the pillar of Islamic brotherhood. As a result, regardless of his country or language, a believer will offer his hand of harmony, love, sympathy, and collaboration to another believer. The following is taken from the Qur’an:
ِّنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ ِْخْوَةٌ فَاَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ اََخَوَيْكُمْ.
“Believers are brothers. So make peace between your brothers.” (Surah Hujurat, 49: 10)
In another verse Allah has said-
وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَتُ بَعْضُهُمْ َْوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍ
“Believing men and believing women are all friends of each other.” (Surah Tawba, 9: 61)
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“For example, in the case of Tawad, they are the same as the body. The example of the believers in the matter of harmony, amity and sympathy is like that of a body, when one of its limbs is sick, the whole body suffers from fever and insomnia.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 8011; Sahih Muslim, Hadith 256)
In another hadith Irshad has said-
“The believer is a mirror for the believer. Mumin is the brother of Mumin. He reserves his land and takes care of it in his absence.” (Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith 4917)
Islam’s limitless beauty is that it inspires Muslims to reach the pinnacle of brotherhood. Self-sacrifice for the sake of the brother is likewise encouraged by Iman.
At the start of Islam, the Muslims of Makkah were in a tough condition. Their tribe’s unfairness and oppression led them to flee their homeland. Medina’s Muslims then presented a beautiful example of collaboration and compassion. Despite their own necessities and poverty, they sacrificed their wealth and self-interest for the Muslim brothers of the destitute Muhajir.
Allah has ordered in the Holy Qur’an for people to choose this attribute of altruism:
وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى َْنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ.
“They (the Ansar) prefer (the Muhajirs) over themselves. Although they have their own needs and shortcomings.” (Surah Hashr, 59:9)
In Surat al-Dahr, Allah mentions some of the special blessings of the Holy Paradise and says about the characteristics of the possessors of these blessings:
“And the food is for the poor.(Those who will get all these blessings) and those who give food to the poor, orphans and prisoners despite their (own) interest. We feed you only for the pleasure of Allah. We do not ask you for any reward or gratitude.” (Surah Dahar 6: 6-9)
In another verse, good deeds and virtues are described as follows:
و لكن البر من امن بالله و الیوم الاخر و الملىكة و الكتب و النبین و اتی المال علی حبه ذوی القربی و الیتمی و المسكین و ابن السبیل و السآىلین و فی الرقاب.
“Rather, the virtue is that man will believe in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book of (Allah) and the Prophets, and (his) wealth in spite of his love for his relatives, orphans, poor travelers and beggars, and freedom from slavery.” (Surah Baqara, 2:17)
This harmony and cooperation is directed towards the path of taqwa and welfare, justice and legitimate work. Irshad of Kareem in the Quran-
وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَتَقّوَى وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْاَثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَان
“Cooperate with one another in piety and justice. Do not cooperate in wickedness and injustice.” (Sura Maeda, 6: 02)
“Helping one’s own people for justice and welfare is not an unjust communalism. Prohibited sectarianism is to co-operate with the people in oppression and injustice. Once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was asked, ‘What is‘ asabiyat ’(i.e. sectarianism)? He replied, to help his people in their unjust injustice.” (Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith 5119)
So partisanship in the case of injustice is sectarianism, which is strictly forbidden in Islam. Irshad has-
“There is no one who prays to my nerves, and there is no one who kills on my nerves, and there is no one who does not die on my nerves. Anyone who calls for Asabiyat or fights for Asabiyat or dies over Asabiyat is not one of us.” (Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith 5121)
As a result, Islam’s unambiguous admonition is that Muslims should labor together in the service of taqwa and welfare. Maintain a spirit of love and camaraderie among yourselves, and desist from supporting or cooperating with those who are unfair.
Here are a few details from the Companions’ enlightened biography to help you grasp this noble Islamic ideal of selfless control over one’s own brother in spite of one’s own demands, so that you can have a real and clear picture of this message. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) may be seen in his work and sacred biography from the beginning.
Narrated by Hazrat Sahl bin Saad (R.A.), he said, “A female Companion brought a beautifully decorated cloth for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as a gift. I made it myself.” I’d be happy to wear it. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) accepted the cloth. He also needed clothes. When he came out of the house wearing it as a lungi, a man said, very nice clothes! Will you give it to me? Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went back to the house, opened it, folded it, and sent for the man. Seeing this scene, the other disciples rebuked the man and said, “Hey! Don’t you know that Nabiji needs the cloth? And he doesn’t say ‘no’ when anyone wants something. He replied, “I know everything, yet I wanted to make my own shroud with the cloth blessed by the touch of his blessed body.” The narrator said that after the death of the man, he was buried in that cloth.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 128, 2093, 5610, 6037)
This is merely an episode in the Prophet (S.A.W.)’s life. According to his holy biography, he dedicated his entire life to the cause of Islam. He never considered his own interests or pleasures. He was always concerned about the Ummah’s needs and well-being. Whenever he accumulated fortune, he would patiently transfer it to the poor and needy.
According to a narration, a man came to the Prophet (PBUH) and asked for something. He said to the supplicant, “Now I have nothing to give. You take a loan from someone in my name according to your need. In my hand, I will actually repay the loan.” Hearing this, Hazrat Umar (R.A.) He said, O Messenger of Allah! God has not instructed you to do anything beyond your means; Rather, I give something to the supplicant. The Prophet (PBUH) did not like what Hazrat Umar (R.A.) said. At that moment an Ansari Companion said, O Messenger of Allah! You continue to donate as you wish. Don’t be afraid to go down to the great archbishop. The Prophet was very happy with his words and smiled. He said, “I have been ordered to do so.” (Shamaile Tirmidhi (355) (Shaykh Muhammad Awamah Tahaqiq) Musnad Bazaar (263); Almukhtarah, Zia Makdisi (6); Mazmauz Zawaid 10/242)
“A hungry helpless man came to the Prophet (PBUH) and told him about his condition. He sent for his wives and asked if there was any food in the house. News came from everyone, there is nothing in the house except water. Then the Prophet (PBUH) asked the Companions, ‘Which of you is ready to entertain this person today?’ Ansari Sahabi Abu Talha (R.A.). He stood up and said, I am. He took her to his home. He said to his wife, “She is the guest of the Prophet (PBUH). Tell me what food is in the house? The wife said there was little food for the children. Nothing more. He said, “Well, you prepare it for the guest.” And put the kids to sleep. And listen, after giving food in front of the guest, he will turn it off on the pretext of fixing the lamp. The wife prepared everything. After presenting the food in front of the guests, the lamp was extinguished as mentioned earlier. Both husband and wife pretended in the dark that they were eating together. Thus they tried to please the guest by fasting the whole family. In the morning when Abu Talha. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said to him, ‘Allah is very pleased with the way your husband and wife treated the guest last night.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 3798, 469; Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2054)
“After the migration from Makkah to Madinah, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) officially established brotherhood between the Muhajireen and the Ansar Sahabis. He also specified who the Muhajir and Ansar would live with for the sake of good discipline. Abdur Rahman bin Awf established a brotherhood with the Ansari Companion Sa’d bin Rabi. He took Abdur Rahman bin Auf home. Then he addressed him and said, brother Abdur Rahman! You own half of my property from today. And listen, I have two wives. Tell whomever you like, I will divorce him. At the end of the waiting period, you will be married to him. Abdur Rahman bin Auf (R.A.) He replied, “Brother Sa’d!” May Allah bless your wealth and your family. Keep everything to yourself. Just show me the market street. I want to do business. Sa’d bin Rabi (R.A.), Banu Kaynukar showed him the market. He went there and started buying and selling. I made some money on the first day. With that he bought some ghee and butter to eat. Thus his business began to improve day by day. He gradually became prosperous through his own earnings. He then married an Ansari woman.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 517; Musnad Ahmad, Hadith 1363; Musnad Abd Ibn Humaid, Hadith 1333)
The Ansar Sahabis’ self-sacrifice for the Muslim brothers and the sincere gratitude on the part of the Muhajirs was widespread.
Narrated by Hazrat Abu Huraira (R.A), “The Companions of the Ansar said to the Prophet (PBUH), “Distribute our date orchards equally between the Muhajir brothers and us.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) rejected their offer. So the Ansar said to the emigrants, “You will only help us in farming and we will give you a share of the harvest.” Eventually they all agreed to the proposal.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2325, 2619)
Narrated by Hazrat Anas (R.A.), “Muhajir brothers said to the Prophet (PBUH): ‘O Messenger of Allah! We have never seen a better man than the brothers to whom we have taken refuge. They sympathize with us even in the smallest matters and give up a lot of resources for us. We just cooperate with their garden and land work. That is why they give us an equal share of the crop. We fear that they will take away all the reward (of the Hereafter). The Prophet (S.A.W.) said, “No.” As long as you are grateful to them and pray for them. (You too will be rewarded.).” (Musnad Ahmad, Hadith 13075; Sunan Nasa’i)
According to a narration from Hazrat Anas (R.A) (after the conquest of Bahrain),” The Prophet (S.A.W.) wanted to write down all the spoils of war in the name of the Ansar Companions. They disagreed with the proposal. He appealed that the same amount of wealth that would be given to us should also be given to the brothers of Muhajir. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “If you do not agree to take anything (except the emigrants), then be patient until you meet me at the House of Kawthar.” Because, in the future, others will be given priority over you in various matters.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 3794, 237, 237)
