بســـــم اللــه الرحــمــٰن الـرحـــيــم
Would you think of committing a sin after reading this?
Someone came to Ibrāhīm ibn Adhham and he asked him: “Ibrāhīm, I committed a lot of sins and I am still committing sins. What do I do?”
Ibrāhīm told him the cure to his problem in his unique way. He said: “do a few things I am going to tell you and commit any sin, anything you want to commit”.
He said: “what are they?”
Ibrāhīm said: “the first one, when you want to make a sin, go find a piece of land that doesn’t belong to Allāh, then disobey Him in that piece of land.”
He said: “may Allāh have mercy on you, Ibrāhīm, where can I find that piece of land that doesn’t belong to Allāh?”
Ibrāhīm said: “well, if you can’t, then you don’t commit the sin.”
He said: “okay, what’s the next one?”
Ibrāhīm said: “go and gain strength and eat and drink from that which Allāh didn’t provide you.”
He said: “may Allāh have mercy on you, Ibrāhīm, where can I find that?”
Ibrāhīm said: “well, if you can’t get strength from that which Allāh didn’t provide then don’t commit a sin. The third thing. Go to a location where Allāh can’t see you. Cause you are going to disobey Allāh, do it where He can’t see you”.
That’s just like your parents, they pay your tuition, your parents support you and they tell you “come back at 11 o’clock at night, that’s your curfew” and you come back everyday 1 o’clock. How dare you do that when they do all that for you and that’s on a small level. Allāh everything He did for you, and you go disobey Him? Go to an area where He can’t see you!
He said: “where can I find that? May Allāh have mercy on you, Ibrāhīm. I can’t find that.”
Ibrāhīm said: “then don’t disobey Allāh if He can see you. The fourth one. If the Angel of Death comes to you and you’re committing a sin or you don’t repent from that sin tell him: “give me a few moments and then take my soul.””
He said: “I can never do that!”
فإذا جاء أجلهم لا يستأخرون ساعة
If your moment comes you will not be able to delay it one moment or precede it for one moment. [Sūrah al A’rāf: 34]
Ibrāhīm said: “then don’t commit a sin”.
He said: “so, what’s the fifth one?”
Ibrāhīm said: “when Allāh is going to throw you in Hell, and the Angels are taking you and throwing you in Hell, tell him: “no, I am going to Heaven”.”
He said: “may Allāh have mercy on you, Ibrāhīm, I can’t do that. Wallāhī, I’ve found a solution right here, I am never committing a sin after this.”
How dare we? How dare we eat from that which Allāh provided and live on the land Allāh gave us and live in the luxury Allāh gave us, any hands and power and wealth and then we go and disobey Him. How dare we?
