A Tale of Attempted Seduction - The Story of Zulekha & Prophet Yusuf aliyhis salam

A Tale of Attempted Seduction - The Story of Zulekha & Prophet Yusuf aliyhis salam   It was an amazing tale of attempted seduction. Prophet Yusuf (peace be upon him) lived for years in the house of Zulekha, a woman of beauty, power and influence. Day in and day out, Zulekha was exposed to his physical allure, a composition so stunning that the Messenger Muhammad [peace be upon him and his family] said "Yusuf has been given half of all beauty" [Muslim].  Zulekha suppressed her desire for Yusuf aliyhis salam until she could no longer control it. She waited until her husband left the home. Alone with Yusuf (Aliyhis salam) she locked the doors and called him to fulfill her lust. Imam Muhammad Al Qurtubi, the great Quranic commentator, recounts the story: [After locking the doors] Zulekha attempts to seduce Yusuf A.S. She beautifies herself in the most attractive of ways and says:“Oh Yusuf! You have the most handsome of faces.” Yusuf A.S sensing what Zulekha is attempting to do, replies, “This is how my Lord fashioned me in the womb.”“Oh Yusuf!" she says, “You have the finest of hair!” "It will be the first portion of me to wither in my grave," he replies. Undeterred, Zulekha presses on. “Oh Yusuf! Your eyes are so beautiful.” “I use them to look at my Lord,” he retorts.“Yusuf, raise your sight and gaze at my face,” she responds. “I fear [if I do so] that I will be resurrected blind in the afterlife,” Yusuf A.S answers.  She tries to press herself close to Yusuf A.S but he moves away. “I come close to you, yet you distance yourself from me?” she asks. “I desire, by that, the closeness of my Lord,” he says.“ Yusuf, I have prepared my bed for you so enter under its sheets with me,” she says. Yusuf A.S replies, “Your sheets will not shield me from my Lord.” “Yusuf, I have prepared the finest of silk covers, so I order you to fulfill my desires!” she exclaims. “If I do so,” he says, “My portion of paradise will be lost.”  Her attempt to seduce him was fruitless, and his desire to remind her of Allah was falling on a deaf heart. Allah recounts the story Himself:َنيِصَلْخُمْلااَنِداَبِع ْنِم ُ  هَّنِإَءاَشْحَفْلاَو َءوُّسلا ُهْنَع َفِرْصَنِلَكِلَذَك ِهِّبَر َناَهْرُب ىَأَر ْنَأاَلْوَل اَهِبَّمَهَو ِهِب ْتَّمَه ْدَقَلَوAnd she certainly determined [to seduce] him, and he would have inclined to her had he not seen the proof of his Lord. And thus [it was] that We should avert from him evil and immorality. Indeed, he was of Our chosen servants. [ 12:24]  Yusuf aliyhis salam was a prophet of Allah who was in control of his desires. Zulekha, like you and I, was not. She allowed her desires to overcome her love for Allah. She found herself to be living with the object of her want, Yusuf A.S.  Zulekha eventually diagnoses the root cause of her disease when she says:ٌميِحَرٌروُفَغ يِّبَر َّنِإ يِّبَر َمِحَراَم اَّلِإِءوُّسلاِب ٌةَراَّمَأَل َسْفَّنلا َّنِإ يِسْفَن ُئِّرَبُأاَمَوYet I claim not that my soul [nafs] was innocent -- surely the soul of man incites to evil -- except inasmuch as my Lord had mercy; truly my Lord is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.' {12:53}  Her Nafs. Our Nafs. A beast inside each and every one of us that we must tame. An unbridled nafs will lead us to prefer all carnal desires over the love of what Allah and His Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family) call us to. Doing so will cause us ruin in this world, and in the next. Yet a nafs that has been tamed will learn to prefer Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him and his family) over all else, causing happiness in this world and in the next, as Allah tells us:اَهاَّسَد ْنَمَباَخ ْدَقَو )(اَهاَّكَزْنَم َحَلْفَأ ْدَق )( اَهاَوْقَتَواَهَروُجُفاَهَمَهْلَأَف )( اَهاَّوَساَمَو ٍسْفَنَوBy the soul, and That which shaped it. and inspired it to lewdness and Godfearing! Prosperous is he who purifies it, and failed has he who seduces it.--  When confronted with an alluring situation like passing by the opposite sex on the street, office or school, Shaitaan is constantly tempting us to glare at her/him with evil thoughts. Shaitaan is probably excitedly saying, with a big smile, 'Yes, yes, yes!' when we steer into the bait he is setting. During these situations, we should immediately and consciously realize that when we give a second or following glance we are obeying Satan. "O you who believe, follow not the footsteps of the devil" {24:21}.  By immediately averting our gazes and disobeying Shaitaan, we are giving him a "one-two" punch in the face 👊 :) leaving him frustrated and accursed. Shaitaan rebelled and was expelled by Allah, so let's all rebel against Shaitaan and expel him from our hearts.. In sha Allah. Shaitaan intends to fight a war against Muslims, so let's gather our forces behind the Qur'an and the Sunnah and defeat him.  Remember that even if no human eye is watching us, the Ever-Watchful Allah is constantly monitoring the innermost regions of our hearts. Our eyes, limbs, tongue and private parts will be witnesses on the Day of Ressurection and not an atom's worth of deeds will remain unexamined. Our minds are conditioned to associate thoughts of stealing clothes from a store to being in handcuffs and hauled into a police van. Likewise, we should condition our minds to bring the verses of Surah An-Nur in front of our eyes during any tempting situations and imagine that Allah is speaking to us directly:"Say to the believing, men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty. O you believers! Turn you all together towards Allah that you may attain success" (24:30-31)  The Messengers of Allah [Peace and blessings be upon them] taught us the cognizance of our souls, and gave us the tools to control our caprice, while reminding us that success can only come by the mercy of Allah [May He be glorified].  The story of Yusuf aliyhis salam and Zulekha explores the nature of desire, temptation, and envy that occupies space in all of our souls and leads many of us astray. [Big B]

Justice and Dealing with Equity

Patience: وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ “And Allah loves as-Sâbirun (the patient).” (Surah Imran 3:146) Justice and Dealing with Equity: يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُونُواْ قَوَّٲمِينَ لِلَّهِ شُہَدَآءَ بِٱلۡقِسۡطِ‌ۖ وَلَا يَجۡرِمَنَّڪُمۡ شَنَـَٔانُ قَوۡمٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَلَّا تَعۡدِلُواْ‌ۚ ٱعۡدِلُواْ هُوَ أَقۡرَبُ لِلتَّقۡوَىٰ‌ۖ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ‌ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرُۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ “O ye who believe! Be steadfast witnesses for Allah in equity, and let not hatred of any people seduce you that ye deal not justly. Deal justly, that is nearer to your duty. Observe your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is informed of what ye do.” (Surah Maeda 5:8). Good-doing: إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ “Truly, Allah loves Al-Muhsinun (the good-doers).” (Surah Baqarah 2:195) Purification: وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُطَّهِّرِينَ “And Allah loves those who make themselves clean and pure.” (Surah Tawbah 9:108). Humility of the Rich: Sa’d Ibn Abi Waqqas (RA) said: Allah’s Messenger (SAW ) said: “Allah loves the believer who is pious and rich, but does not show off.” (Muslim) Belief and Work: Al-Tabarâni narrated: Allah’s Messenger (SAW ) said: “Allah loves the slave who believes and acquires a halaal career (or work).” A sense of Honour: Al-Tirmidhi narrated: Allah’s Messenger (SAW ) said: “Allah loves from amongst his slaves, the one who has a sense of zeal or honour.” Love for the Sake of Allah: Al-Tabarâni, Ibn Ya’lâ, Ibn Hibban and Al-Hakim narrated: Allah’s Messenger (SAW ) said: “If two individuals love each other for the sake of Allah, the stronger in love to his brother will be more loved by Allah.” Continuous Performance of Righteous Deeds: Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: “The best loved deeds to Allah are the ones that are continuous even if they are not very many.” (Bukhari and Muslim).

Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: “One will not be a true believer unless he loves for his brother what be loves for himself.” (Bukhari). May Allah keep guiding us all and aid us to be good practising Muslims. Aameen.

HOW PATIENCE CAN WE BE?

Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.   Let's continue from the first Reminder.  1. Patience for the sake of Allah, hoping for His rewards and fearing His punishment. 2. Patience by the help of Allah, as man realizes that he has no patience himself, and has no power to acquire patience. Rather, he knows: “there is no power and no strength except by (the help of) Allah.” 3. Patience in accepting the decree of Allah, as man realizes that Allah is the only one Who is controlling the affairs of the universe, so he will patiently accept the ruling and decree of Allah, regardless of what it may mean for him in the way of ease or hardship.  Patience is a half of eeman. Eeman is in two halves: half is patience (sabr) and half is gratitude (shukr). Therefore Allah has mentioned patience and gratitude alongside one another: “... Verily in this are signs for all who constantly persevere and give thanks” (Ibrahim 14: 5; Luqman 31:31; Saba 34: 19; ash-Shura 42: 33). The reasons why one half of eeman is patience and the other half is gratitude are as follows: Eeman is a term which covers words, deeds and intentions, all of which are based on one of two things, action or abstinence. Action refers to performing a deed in accordance with the instructions of Allah, which is the reality of gratitude. Abstinence, as in refraining from wrong action, requires patience. The whole of religion is embodied in these two things: carrying out that which Allah has commanded, and refraining from that which Allah has prohibited. Eeman is based on two pillars, yaqin (conviction) and patience, which are referred to in the following ayah: “And ALLAH appointed, from among them, leaders, giving guidance under Allah's command, so long as they persevered with patience and continued to have faith in Allah's Signs” (As-Sajdah 32: 24). It is through faith that we know the reality of Allah’s commands and prohibitions, of reward and punishment, and it is through patience that we carry out His instructions and abstain from that which He has prohibited. Man is constantly being pulled in two opposing directions: should he respond to the lure of this world of desires and pleasures, or should he answer the call of Allah and the hereafter, with the eternal Paradise that Allah has prepared for His friend (Wali)? Going against the call of whims and desires is patience, and responding to the call of Allah and the hereafter is gratitude. Alhamdulillah. To be continued in Shaa Allah. May Allah aid us to apply to our ways of life as we learn along. Aameen.


Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. 

Let's continue from the first Reminder. 
1. Patience for the sake of Allah, hoping for His rewards and fearing His punishment.
2. Patience by the help of Allah, as man realizes that he has no patience himself, and has no power to acquire patience. Rather, he knows: “there is no power and no strength except by (the help of) Allah.”
3. Patience in accepting the decree of Allah, as man realizes that Allah is the only one Who is controlling the affairs of the universe, so he will patiently accept the ruling and decree of Allah, regardless of what it may mean for him in the way of ease or hardship.

Patience is a half of eeman. Eeman is in two halves: half is patience (sabr) and half is gratitude (shukr). Therefore Allah has mentioned patience and gratitude alongside one another: “... Verily in this are signs for all who constantly persevere and give thanks” (Ibrahim 14: 5; Luqman 31:31; Saba 34: 19; ash-Shura 42: 33).

Belief in al-qadar is based on four things

1. Knowledge, i.e., that Allaah knows what His creation will do, by virtue of His eternal knowledge.  2. Writing, i.e., that Allaah has written the destiny of all creatures in al-Lawh al-Mahfooz.  3. Will, i.e., that what Allaah wills happens and what He does not will does not happen. There is no movement in the heavens or on earth but it happens by His will.  4. Creation and formation, i.e., that Allaah is the Creator of all things, including the actions of His slaves. They do their actions in a real sense, and He is the Creator of them and of their actions.   Whoever believes in these four believes in al-qadar which is compulsory to believe in as a Muslim.   The Qur’aan affirms these things in numerous verses, such as the verses in which He says; “And with Him are the keys of the Ghayb (all that is hidden), none knows them but He. And He knows whatever there is in the land and in the sea; not a leaf falls, but He knows it. There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth nor anything fresh or dry, but is written in a Clear Record”[al-An’aam 6:59]   “No calamity befalls on the earth or in yourselves but it is inscribed in the Book of Decrees (Al‑Lawh Al‑Mahfooz) before We bring it into existence. Verily, that is easy for Allaah”[al-Hadeed 57:22].  “And you cannot will unless (it be) that Allaah wills the Lord of the ‘Aalameen (mankind, jinn and all that exists)” [al-Takweer 81:29].  Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, explaining the view of Ahl al-Sunnah with regard to man’s deeds:    People act in a real sense, and Allaah is the Creator of their actions. A person may be a believer or a kaafir, righteous or immoral, he may pray and fast. People have control over their actions, and they have their own will, and Allaah is the Creator of their control and will.  Marriage is one of the things that Allaah has decreed. The person whom you will marry is known to Allaah: He knows who he is, when he was born, where and when he will die, how he will be towards you, and other details. All of that is known to Allaah and He has written it in al-Lawh al-Mahfooz (the Book of Decrees), and it will inevitably come to pass as Allaah has decreed.   If Allaah has decreed that you will marry one person, but you choose someone else, then no matter how long it takes, you will marry that person. But your marriage to someone else is also decreed, because there is nothing that is not decreed by Allaah. It may be decreed for a woman to marry So and so the son of So and so, and he comes to propose marriage but she refuses him, and marries someone else, then he (the second man) dies or divorces her, then she accepts the first one. All of that is decreed, and it is decreed for her to marry So and so the son of So and so after initially refusing him and after some experience or trials etc.   It may be decreed for a woman that a righteous man will propose marriage to her, but she will refuse him and he will never come back to her, and she will marry and live with someone else who is more or less righteous, according what Allaah has decreed.   Because man does not know what is decreed for him, what he must do is to adhere to sharee’ah and abide by its commands and prohibitions, and to seek the help of Allaah and pray to Him for guidance (istikhaarah) concerning all his affairs, whilst implementing the means, one of the most important of which is consulting sincere people who have relevant experience.   If a righteous man proposes marriage to a woman, she should pray to Allaah for guidance (istikhaarah) and agree to marry him. If things then go smoothly, this is an indication that what is good for her is to marry him.    In conclusion, man should study the sharee’ah of Allaah and follow the commands of Allaah even if he or she feels reluctant, and avoid what Allaah has forbidden even if he is attached to it. All goodness is to be found in obeying sharee’ah.  We should not look at al-qadar as an excuse to ignore commands and do forbidden things, rather we should look at it in a way that will make us content with whatever painful experiences happen to us. Allah knows best. May Allah keep guiding us all and accept our little efforts. Aameen.
