In this respect, a faith-refreshing parable is mentioned below: Once in Yemen a man was catching fish on the bank of a river and his little daughter was also sitting next to him. On every catch he put the fish into a basket lying behind him; whereas his little daughter put the same fish back into the water. After he was done with fishing, he turned back and looked at the basket finding not even a single fish in it! He asked his daughter where the fish had gone to! The little girl replied: My dear father, you clearly told me a Ḥadīš, ‘Only that fish gets caught which becomes oblivious of Żikrullāĥ (remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ).’ Therefore, I did not like to consume those fish that had become unmindful of Żikrullāĥ (remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ). Having listened to such pearls of wisdom, the man became highly emotional and tearful too, he threw away the fish line and hooks. (Derived from: Ṣift-uṣ-Ṣafwaĥ, vol. 4, pp. 357)
May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bless them and forgive us without any accountability for their sake!
