A dangerous attribute

Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | The Sunday Guardian | May 07, 2022

Very often it happens that something people try out turns, if they don’t control it, into a habit. If the habit is not stopped, it turns into an addiction. And an addiction very often becomes so deeply engrained that people reach the point of no return, when it becomes practically impossible to cure them of it. This is the case with every bad habit and addiction.

Fasting and Moral Discipline

Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | The Sunday Guardian | Apr 10, 2022

According to Abu Huraira, the Prophet of Islam once observed: “When any one of you is fasting, he should refrain from all indecencies. He should not raise his voice. If anyone fights with him or abuses him, he should not retaliate, but simply say that he is fasting.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 1894)
