A person passed in front of the
Prophet (P.B.U.H) while a group of individuals were seated with him. One of
them addressed the Prophet (P.B.U.H) and stated, "O Messenger of Allah! I have
affection for this individual, and this attachment is purely for the sake of
Allah." The Prophet (P.B.U.H) inquired, "Have you communicated this
to him?" He (P.B.U.H) then instructed, "Go and inform him that you
love him for Allah's sake." The individual subsequently approached the
person and disclosed his sincere feelings. In response, the individual
remarked, "May the One, for Whose sake you love me, love you."
To fortify friendships and establish
enduring and productive relationships, it is essential to engage with the
personal matters of your friends, perceive their concerns as your own, and
actively contribute towards resolving them. True friendship necessitates
extending closeness to the family of your friend, regarding them with the same
regard as your own kin.
Moderation must always be exercised
in friendships. One should not exhibit such detachment that it causes distress
to the friend, nor should one, in the enthusiasm of affection, act in a manner
that cannot be sustained. Balance, moderation, and foresight are indicative of
success in life.
As Hazrat Ali (R.A) has articulated:
"Be moderate and gentle in your friendship with your companion, for it may
occur that he becomes your adversary at some point. Likewise, exercise
moderation and gentleness in your enmity, for it may transpire that the
individual becomes your friend."
One should never perceive their
friend as inferior. True benevolence and encouragement demand that one
continually strives to elevate their friend.
The Noble Prophet (P.B.U.H) stated:
"Religion is entirely rooted in goodwill. Goodwill is to wish for your
friend what you wish for yourself. It is well known that no one desires harm
for themselves."

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe".
