A graceful word and forgiving is better than charity followed by causing hurt.
Allah is All-Independent, Forbearing.
-Surat Al Baqara, Verse 263
--- To advise others is an easy matter, the difficulty is accepting advice -- since it is bitter for those who follow their
own inclinations and desires.
"And follow not (O man, i.e., say not or do not or witness not) that of which you have no knowledge. Verily, the hearing, and the sight, and the heart, of each of those ones will be questioned (by Allah).'' (17:36)
Say, [O Muhammad], "Shall we [believers] inform you of the greatest losers as to [their] deeds? [They are] those whose effort is lost in worldly life, while they think that they are doing well in work." [18:103-104]
"O men! Certainly the promise of Allah is true. Let not then this present life deceive you, nor let the Chief Deceiver (Satan) deceive you about Allah." [Surah Fatir (35:5)]
There has come to you enlightenment from your Lord. So whoever will see does so for [the benefit of] his soul, and whoever is blind [does harm] against it. And [say], "I am not a guardian over you." (Qur'an 6:104)
The wisdom of Almighty Allah (swt) in the Sūratu al-An'ām:
"And with Him are the keys of the Invisible. None but He Knoweth them. And He Knoweth what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falleth but He Knoweth it, not a grain amid the darkness of the earth, naught of wet or dry but (it is noted) in a clear record." (Qur'an 6:59)
Do you not know that to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and [that] you have not besides Allah any protector or any helper? [2:107]
"Indeed, they will never avail you against Allah at all. And indeed, the wrongdoers are allies of one another; but Allah is the protector of the righteous." [Surah al-Jathiya (45:19)]
Leave alone those who take their religion to be mere play and amusement, and
are deceived by the life of this world. But proclaim (to them) this (truth): that
every soul delivers itself to ruin by its own acts: it will find for itself no protector
or intercessor except Allah: if it offered every ransom, (or reparation), none will
be accepted: such is (the end of) those who deliver themselves to ruin by their
own acts: they will have for drink (only) boiling water, and for punishment one
most grievous: for they persisted in rejecting Allah.
-Surat Al Anaam, Verse 70
--- To advise others is an easy matter, the difficulty is accepting advice -- since it is bitter for those who follow their
own inclinations and desires.
To each is a goal to which Allah turns him; then strive together (as in a race)
toward all that is good. Wheresoever ye are, Allah will bring you together. For
Allah hath power over all things.
-Surat Al Baqara, Verse 148
--- To advise others is an easy matter, the difficulty is accepting advice -- since it is bitter for those who follow their
own inclinations and desires.
