Nail
and Nasim were two best friends. Everyone envied their friendship. But, see what
happens when Satan enters in and evil starts to work. One on them was given
after them. For some interest of this world and some little profit broke up with
his friend that said that he loved him so much. He didn’t stop there. He not
even started to talk bad for him, but passed the limits, as happens with the one
who goes after Satan and he sends him to do commit more sins.
He started to slander for his friend. Little by little, this became a
vice and with everyone he met he said:
-
Do you know Nasim. Nobody can know him better than me. I was his best friend,
but he isn’t as you think. He is such and such.
All
the tittle-tattle he said for his ex-best friend were not enough, so he changed
the method, he started to visit other people, especially Nasim’s friends with
intention to gossip and make them go away from Nasim. One day, Nail went to
Burhan and as usually he started to talk bad about Nasim, but this time the saw
encountered a bigger nail than his. Burhan replied:
-
Listen, Nail! The Holy Qur’an and the Hadith of the Prophet strongly prohibit
to talk about other when they are not present. This is not suitable for you,
because until yesterday you were friends and you have declared that, but now, as
I can see your friendship with Nasim was just to discover his secrets. What are
you doing is a great sin, in fact. Fear Allah, for nobody believes in these
actions of yours, but Satan and his friends. If you want to gain the mercy of
Allah and not to catch His punishment, repent to Him and leave these dirty
works, and then pray to Allah for forgiveness. In the same time, go to Nasim and
ask him to forgive you. Since he didn’t say a bad word for you, he will
forgive you.
Red-faced,
with head down he left Burhan without saying a word.
Burhan
was thinking, whether Nail will reply to Allah’s invitation or he will
continue to do friendship with Satan. In that moment he didn’t know what else
to say, but: May Allah guide him!
