Faizan e Mushkil Kusha

Book Name:Faizan e Mushkil Kusha

1     Take care of likes of your Muslim brother, do good to him, then you will also get your favourite thing from him.

2      Never have bad assumption in the conversation of your Muslim brother. (i.e. always find good aspect) you will surely find something good in his conversation.

3     When you have two acts, do not indulge in the act at all in which you have to follow Nafs because following Nafs causes complete loss.

4      Whenever you want to implore in the blessed court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ for your need, recite Salat upon His Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم abundantly before making Du’a. Undoubtedly, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ blesses the person abundantly who asks for his needs from Him; then if someone asks for two things from Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bestows the thing upon him that is better for him and prevents the bondman from the thing that is harmful to him.

5      If someone wants to become busy all the time with Zikr [remembrance] of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, he should make patience his habit and have patience on every trouble.

6      And the person who desires for [long life in] worldly life should be prepared for troubles.

7      The person who wants to retain his honour and respect should refrain from show-off.

8     Do not ask any question unnecessarily about the thing which has nothing to do with you.

9      Value health before illness and get abundant benefits from the spare time, otherwise you will face grief and trouble.

10    Steadfastness is a half success just as grief is a half old age.

11   Give up the thing that raises a doubt in your heart because you will stay safe if you give it up. (‘Uyoon-ul-Hikayat, pp. 173)
