Purpose of Life > The Second Tafsir
Purpose of Life
By: Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahab (db)
The Second Tafsir
The second Tafsîr is that He changes the urge to commit sins into the urge to commit good deeds. That is, the one who was becoming insane all the time due to sinning, he used to listen to film songs all the time, who watched videos and movies, who kept himself ready all the time trying to study the teddies, has now repented and left all sins. Now he goes to the saints and does good actions. The mercy of Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la changes the severity of his urge to sin into a strong urge to do good actions. But the condition is that he does not secretly commit the sins and thereby revive his habit of sinning. This is like the person who lived in the sewerage area and used to smell the container of faeces daily. Thereafter he repented and began working in a perfume shop. He told the perfume merchant to give him such a perfume that would keep him away from smelling faeces and make him lose affinity with the sewerage area. The merchant gave him ûd which costs ten thousand rupees for one tola. He told him that the Arab princes apply it and he could use it daily for free because he was his employee. He was cured and when anything with an offensive smell was brought before him, he became nauseous because he stopped going to the sewerage area. After a year, his nose which was accustomed to foul odours now had a good nature. He said he could not go to the sewerage area merely thinking about the smell. He would vomit just by looking at a pail of faeces. His friend who also worked in the sewerage department gave up the job but he was a thief. Sometimes once a week or during the month he would go to the sewerage area and smell the faeces. He would not tell his employer in fear of not allowing him to ever go there. Now tell me whether he will ever get better and will he ever be offended by a foul smell? He was chopping his own feet with an axe. Moulânâ Rûmi (Rahimahullâh) says this with much pain and I also express the same with pain to my friends.
When my own hand is cutting my foot, then O Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la,
how can we save our lives without Your protection?
Friends, have mercy on your lives otherwise your whole life will be spent in anxiety and punishment. You will be punished in this world as well as in the grave. I appeal to those in the name of Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la who have made bay�at on the hands of saints to refrain from secretly going to harâm venues and from committing harâm. Do not wait for the punishment of Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la. Whoever sincerely repents, Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la will change his urge to sin into an urge of doing good. It is only a matter of a few days. Spend a year or two without sinning, then if Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la wills, the heart will not intend sinning. The heart will change.
