Second disadvantage is that such a person does not like advice and مَـعَـاذَ الـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ such a person sometimes even expresses his displeasure at the blessed Ayahs and blessed Ahadees consisting of torments. Remember! It is Wajib to have belief in the mercy of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, but it is an evil act to become busy doing bad deeds by giving reason for mercy.

Two ways to get rid of vain hopes

Dear Islamic brothers! Ponder like this in order to get rid of this vain hope that if every sinner is forgiven by virtue of Divine mercy, then why do thousands of Muslims suffer or will suffer torment? In addition, it should also be kept in mind that no one has more faith in the Divine mercy of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ than blessed Ambiya عَـلَـيْـهِمُ الـصَّلٰوةُ وَالـسَّـلَام, companions رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم and pious saints رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی despite this, these holy personages did not become lazy in worshipping and reciting the Holy Quran and performing good deeds abundantly. Who would be more blessed in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ than our Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, even then he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم used to worship the whole night.

Shouldn’t I be a thankful person?

Umm-ul-Mu`mineen, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا has said that the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would get up during the night and offer Salah until his blessed feet would swell. I humbly asked, ‘Why do you do it although Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has forgiven the sins of your preceding and succeeding generations for your sake?’ The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘Should I not like to become the thankful bondman of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ?’

روتا ہے جو راتوں کو امّت کی محبّت میں                   وہ شافع محشر ہے سردار مدینے کا

راتوں کو جو روتا ہے اور خاک پہ سوتا ہے                 غم خوار ہے، سادہ ہے مختار مدینے کا

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
