Allah says
مَّن كَانَ يُرِيدُ ٱلۡعَاجِلَةَ عَجَّلۡنَا لَهُۥ فِيهَا مَا نَشَآءُ لِمَن نُّرِيدُ ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَا لَهُۥ جَهَنَّمَ يَصۡلَىٰهَا مَذۡمُومٗا مَّدۡحُورٗا (18)
Whoever wants the immediate thing, We will hasten it for him whatever We wish for whom do we want, then We made for him Hell, a place where he can find himself blameworthy, violently driven (18)
God Almighty tells us that “whoever desires” the present, fleeting, and fleeting world, then works for it and strives, and forgets the beginning or the end, God hastens for him of its debris and its possessions whatever he pleases and desires from what [God] has written for him in the Preserved Tablet, but it is a useless and not permanent possession for him. Then He will make it for him in the Hereafter, {Hell will be visited by Hell} meaning: He will begin its torment in a state of disgrace, scandal, and disparagement from God and His creation, and being far from God’s mercy, so he combines torment and scandal for him.
{And whoever desires the Hereafter, he accepts it and prefers it to this world, and strives for it as he strives, which the heavenly books and prophetic traditions have called for, then he should do so to the best of his ability, {And he is a believer} in God, and His angels, and His books, and His messengers, and in the Last Day, accepting what I grow, and there is stored up for them their reward and with their Lord.
Allah says
كُلّٗا نُّمِدُّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَهَٰٓؤُلَآءِ مِنۡ عَطَآءِ رَبِّكَۚ وَمَا كَانَ عَطَآءُ رَبِّكَ مَحۡظُورًا (20)
We both support these, and these are from the gift of your Lord, And the gift of your Lord is not prohibition (20)
However, they do not miss out on their share of the world, for God provides each of them because it is His gift and benevolence, {And the giving of your Lord is not forbidden.} That is, forbidden from anyone, but rather all of creation are humbled by His grace and benevolence.
A view of the verse
These two groups (the first group: the one who wants this world and lives it, and the matter is over for him) and (the second group: the one who desires the afterlife and strives for it as he strives, “doing good deeds”) God gives the reasons to take what you want, and the question here is: Not everyone who wants the world gets what he wants, because the world is not worth the wing of a mosquito to God, With its joy, its beauty, its bright colors, its loud tones, and everything in it, it is not worth a mosquito wing in the eyes of God, but in our eyes it means a lot, why am I supposed to look at things from God's perspective? We agreed in several previous verses: that the Qur’an guides to the best words and deeds that make the one who does them seem wise even though he is still young, as long as you feel guided, the greatness of the things that bring people happiness will diminish in your eyes. People are temporarily happy with a noisy party, for example, and then they feel deep sadness for which they do not know the reason, and they ask for more of the thing that brings them happiness, He is truly happy, but sadness does not leave him. Why? Because the world is like a piece of sugar that you sweeten your mouth with, or a piece of drugs with which you forget your worries. I mean, it is like addiction, and there is a center in the brain that celebrates addiction to anything such as sugars, soft drinks, sleep medications, chips, etc. So this area in the brain gives you a reward (temporary happiness), so you want the same thing again, so you do the same as you did the first time, and you take the reward, and so on... Have you achieved happiness now? Of course not. It is a spiral that can only be broken by being satisfied with what is available, with the present that is not absent, therefore, it is said: If happiness is a moment, then contentment is life. do you remember with me the hadith of the Messenger of God when he described life from his perspective - may God bless him and grant him peace, and he is the one who does not speak of passion? (On the authority of Abu Saeed Al-Khudri, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, who said: The world is sweet and green and God has appointed you as your successor in it and will see how you do, so pious the world and pious the women, for the first temptation of the Children of Israel was with women.)
A quick look at part of the noble hadith
The Messenger - may God bless him and grant him peace - described the world with two descriptions (sweet + green)
Its sweetness
We described it as a kind of addiction
As the green color
Why green color specifically? Why wasn't the sky or sea a clear blue color? If you read about the psychology of the color green, you would know that this color is characterized by youth, activity, vitality, and other positive qualities, and it is the color of trees, but there is a kind of threat. Why? Because green turns very quickly into autumn, and so does youth. so the Messenger, in his enlightenment of the world, tells you: It is addictive and fleeting.) Why do you choose to pursue? Everything in this world is a set of addictions, and you will strive to get what is in it and it is not guaranteed, and you may get bad things, which are all you have, or you have very valuable things and any of the reasons of the world come and you lose them - may God protect you - and you become sad, this is the summary of the world. Return your sight to this verse. We both extend from the gift of your Lord: To whom, O Lord, (to whomever strives) and what is striving then? Strive for more than walking and less than running, i.e. jogging, Whoever does this for the reasons of this world, God Almighty will provide him. And whoever does this for the reasons of the Hereafter, God will provide him with them, as long as the giving of your Lord is not prohibited, The Prophet of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Indeed, between the highest of the people of Paradise and the lowest of them are A degree like a star that can be seen in the east and west of the earth.”
Allah says
ٱنظُرۡ كَيۡفَ فَضَّلۡنَا بَعۡضَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖۚ وَلَلۡأٓخِرَةُ أَكۡبَرُ دَرَجَٰتٖ وَأَكۡبَرُ تَفۡضِيلٗا (21)
Look at how We have favored some of them over others. And the Hereafter will be greater in status and greater in preference. (21)
God Almighty says in His mention to His Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace: Look, O Muhammad, with the eyes of your heart at these two groups, one of which is the immediate abode, and it is sought for, and for it is worked; and the other who desires the Hereafter, and strives for it, certain of God’s reward for his effort, how did we prefer one of the two groups over the other, if we saw this one’s rationality? And We guided him to the path that is more correct, and We facilitated him to that which is more guided and more guided, and We failed this other person and misled him from the path of truth.
A view of the verse
See: Is the seeing one of the mental processes that delivers information to the brain to process it and come up with a concept about the thing it saw? Of course yes, so use God’s gifts to you in things that will benefit you, as the scholars used to say (Oh God, see consideration - think consideration and speak the best and spread it among the people) Instead of looking at what is forbidden, raise your gaze above the foolish and look at the types of giving around you, which is a moral thing. Very poor people, very rich people, and something in between, and everyone is busy showing off and boasting to each other about the gift of your Lord, If you look and understand, you will know that the afterlife has this type of appearance. There is boasting among the believers about taking more luxurious palaces or sitting with the Messenger - may God bless him and grant him peace - (as the best as of your morals) or visiting the prophets and martyrs or other things, and God is Most High and Most Knowing.
Allah says
لَّا تَجۡعَلۡ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَقۡعُدَ مَذۡمُومٗا مَّخۡذُولٗا (22)
Do not make another god with God, lest you remain blameworthy and abandoned (22)
God Almighty says in His mention to His Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace: O Muhammad, do not make a partner with God in His divinity and worship, but worship Him sincerely, and single out His divinity for Him, for there is no god other than Him, If you make a god other than Him, and worship someone other than Him, you will sit blameworthy. He says: You will be blamed for the neglect of thanking God for the blessings He has bestowed upon you, and your turning your gratitude to someone other than your well-known ones.
A view of the verse
If you strive for the afterlife or this world, it does not matter, and you look around you with consideration, do not forget not to call upon another god with God, for you will sit censured by those around you, abandoned, and no one will support you, here or in the afterlife? It may happen in this world during major calamities - may God protect you - even atheists, when drowning, an earthquake, or the illness of one of their dear ones, utter what they have not uttered in their entire lives (O God), save us. Why? Because belief in a great power is innate in man, not in your disposition. Read this paragraph with me:
Do humans have a "religious instinct"?
According to a Pew study. Which means that even those who participate in traditional religions may practice them unconventionally. But questions remain. As do we—human animals whose brains are “designed to blur the line between self and other,” as de Waal puts it. We will always look for activities—ecstatic dance, prayer, and communication—that remind us and reinforce this blurring, at the heart of religion, says Dunbar, is a mystical concern for belonging—a concern that predates and will outlive homo sapiens, and which will eventually be said to have occupied a narrow portion of time and space in the great cosmic story of the universe.
Allah says
۞وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِيَّاهُ وَبِٱلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ إِحۡسَٰنًاۚ إِمَّا يَبۡلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ ٱلۡكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَآ أَوۡ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَآ أُفّٖ وَلَا تَنۡهَرۡهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوۡلٗا كَرِيمٗا (23)
And your Lord has decreed that you should worship none but Him, and to do benevolence to both of parents, either one or both of them will reach old age with you, So do not say to them ( F): just air , nor rebuke them, but say to them a generous word. (23)
He said: Zakaria bin Salam told us: A man came to Al-Hasan and said:
On the authority of Omar bin Al-Khattab
(generous words): He said: Do not refuse anything they want.
On the authority of Qatada
(And speak to them a noble word) that is, a soft and easy statement.
A view of the verse
It was decreed: that is, it was decreed and written on the tablet preserved in the sky and the matter was finished, that is, God Almighty enjoined several commandments and linked them together, Such as not associating others with God while being kind to one’s parents, and one’s mother specifically. Why? Not only because they raised you when you were young, but because you are in your prime and youth now, who sacrificed for you all the youth they were and left it to you to walk the path of life in a continuous cycle of generations. So God Almighty advises you - By not saying audibly in front of them, and not being arrogant in speech, and by not speaking anything that bothers them, and instead of saying a generous word, it is said a generous person. what does this mean? It means that he gives a lot of his money to give to others, so what is the saying “Karim”: one of the meanings of “Karim” in the language: (He who forgives others a lot - generous - precious) Know as a son who uses these three words: forgiveness: forgiveness a lot in front of their questions, even if they are repetitive, Generous: You talk to them to comfort them, even if they are busy or you are busy, precious: The most precious things you have are words just like what you do with your loved ones...
Allah says
وَٱخۡفِضۡ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ ٱلذُّلِّ مِنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَةِ وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱرۡحَمۡهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرٗا (24)
And lower for them the wing of humility out of mercy, And say, “My Lord, have mercy on them as they raised me when I was young.” (24)
Don't withhold something they love.
It is to be lenient to them so that you do not refrain from doing something they love.
Some scholars said his saying is abrogated
مَا كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُوا لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ وَلَوْ كَانُوا أُولِي قُرْبَى مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْجَحِيمِ .
It is not for the Prophet and those who believe to ask forgiveness for the polytheists, Even if they were my relatives after it became clear to them that they are the inmates of Hell.
A view on the verse
God Almighty shows you a scene, so imagine it. You have two wings to fly wherever you want, and that your parents raised you when you were young, even if it was just food and drink without any education. They are responsible for your physical strength, This is the one who gave you these two wings. God Almighty says to you: Do not fly high with them and forget the two great parents below, reducing is not humiliation, but it is a reduction in speed and in flying high, That is, be humble with them, and say: Between you and God (Lord, have mercy on them as they raised me when I was young). The righteous predecessors did not consider a man righteous until he prayed for his father and mother 5 times a day and night, That is, in the prayers, make this supplication constant in the first prostration in the written prayer so that the living or the dead will not forget it.
Allah says
رَّبُّكُمۡ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا فِي نُفُوسِكُمۡۚ إِن تَكُونُواْ صَٰلِحِينَ فَإِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لِلۡأَوَّٰبِينَ غَفُورٗا (25)
Your Lord knows best what is in your souls, whether you are righteous, For indeed, He was ever Forgiving to the penitent, remorseful. (25)
If you correct your intentions towards them, and obey God in what He commanded you to do, be kind to them, and fulfill their rights over you, after a lapse on your part, or a slip in your duty, They are upon you, along with doing what He obliges you to do in other than His obligations, for He is forgiving those who repent after a slip, and those who repent after a mistake.
A view of the verse
After God Almighty has enjoined upon you a number of virtues that improve your image before yourself and before people, you worship one God and say that this is freedom, so you are a free man, and you deal with your parents with kindness and feel your self-worth, or at the very least, you do not feel guilty, giving your hard-earned money to the poor, the wayfarer, or someone else improves your image in front of people (of course without hypocrisy so that it can be said that you are generous) and improves your image in front of yourself. The first thing that occurs is self-image, it improves in front of yourself before people, so God Almighty says: (Your Lord knows best what is in your souls) because you may act in front of people, deal kindly with your parents and have low morals between you and them, or pay a poor person so that people can see you and you are between yourself and yourself, you do not want to repel that, and change it, so God knows best what is in your soul, and that it was for the repentant: those who repent a lot so that God - the Almighty - will forgive them, In that case, He is Forgiving, just as you are a Repentant, that is, often returning to God Almighty.
Alla says
وَءَاتِ ذَا ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ حَقَّهُۥ وَٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ وَٱبۡنَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَلَا تُبَذِّرۡ تَبۡذِيرًا (26) إِنَّ ٱلۡمُبَذِّرِينَ كَانُوٓاْ إِخۡوَٰنَ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِۖ وَكَانَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ لِرَبِّهِۦ كَفُورٗا (27)
Give the relative their due, and the needy, and the wayfarer, and do not waste it with wast extravagantly, (26) Indeed, the wasteful are brothers of Satan, and Satan is ungrateful to his Lord. (27)
And his saying (and the poor) means humiliation among those in need. We have previously demonstrated the meaning of the poor, in a way that suffices for the need to return it in this situation. And His saying (and the wayfarer) means: the traveler who is separated from him. God Almighty says: Connect with your relatives, so give him his due due to your connection with him, As for the poor person in need, and the one passing by you who is interrupted, help him and strengthen him to interrupt his journey. It has been said: What was meant by the order to give the wayfarer his right is to add three days, The first statement, in my view, is more correct, because God Almighty did not allocate any of his rights over anything in his book, nor on the tongue of his Messenger, so that is general in every right he has to be given in terms of hospitality, cargo, or assistance on his travel.
A view of the two verses
The extravagance of the money
wasting it and wasting it uselessly
When the Lord - Blessed and Most High - spoke to you about your wealth, he started with the needy and did not start with you, so he told you to spend on the poor and your poor relatives and give them as their due from the obligatory zakat, If he is one of those who have obligatory duties, then you will receive the reward twice, the reward for paying zakat and the reward for spending on the poor, Then the Master warns you not to waste on these people, not on yourself. Why, because the wasteful ones were brothers of the devils, and look at who made the most purchases, the men, the women, or the children? Women right? And women, when God Almighty spoke about them, He said (And do not give your wealth to the foolish.) The foolish person is the one who does not manage money well. Someone might say that there are women ministers of finance in life who do manage money well, So why does God say that they are fools? The truth is that recent studies prove that women are more likely to buy and buy, or call it addiction to buying, and this applies to the majority of women, the remaining few are the ones who buy what they really need, so do not be a spendthrift, not on your own behalf, but forget yourself as you spend on the poor and relatives - which no one can do.
How men and women spend their money differently
Spending habits
Overall spending: Single men outperform single women, but only by a small margin. Men spend an average of $35,018 per year while women spend $33,786. It is important to note, however, that men earn approximately $10,000 more per year than women. You can complete the study at the link below.
