Modesty Of Our Pious Predecessors
خَلَقَ اللَّهُ تَعَالٰى فِي الْجَنَّةِ شَجَرَةً ثَمَرُهَا اَكْبَرُ مِنَ التُّفَّاحِ، وَاَصْغَرُ مِنَ الرُّمَّانِ،اَلْيَنُ مِنَ الزُّبْدِ،وَاَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ، وَأَطْيَبُ مِنَ الْمِسْكِ،وَاَغْصَانُهَا مِنَ اللُّؤْلُؤِ الرَّطْبِ،وَجُذُوْعُهَا مِنَ الذَّهَبِ، وَوَرَقُهَا مِنَ الزَّبَرْجَدِ لَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا اِلَّا مَنْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Translation: “Allah Almighty created a tree in Paradise. Its fruit is larger than an apple and smaller than a pomegranate. It is softer than cream, sweeter than honey, and more fragrant than musk. Its branches are made of pearls, its stump of gold, and its leaves of green jewels. Only the person who sends abundant salat upon Muhammad صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم will be able to eat the fruit from that tree.”[1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ, meaning, a truthful intention is the best action.[2] O devotees of the Prophet, get into the habit of making good intentions before every action, because a good intention can be the cause of entering Paradise. Before listening to the bayan, make good intentions. For example,
* you will listen to the entire bayan to gain the knowledge of Islam.
* you will sit in a respectful manner.
* you will refrain from laziness during the bayan.
* you will listen to the bayan to reform yourself.
* whatever you hear and learn, you will attempt to pass onto others.
