*Removal of Blessings & Sending Down Of Punishments!*{SUPERB!}[Quran & Ibn Qayyim]

Bismillaah, Wal-Hamdulilaah, Was-Salaatu Was-Salaamu 'alaa Rasoolillaah, As Salaamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakatuh The Removal of Blessings and the Sending Down of Punishments From among the punishment of sins is that they cause blessings to be removed and calamity and hardship to descend. Blessings are taken from the servant because of his sins.   ' Alee ibn Abee Taalib (Radhiyah Allaahu 'Anhu) Allaah the Most High has said:-    'And whatever misfortunes befall you it is because of what you have earned with your hands.'     {Source:-'Quran' -S-Shoorah 42:30} and ... That is because Allaah will never change a grace which He has bestowed upon a people until they change what is in their own selves.   { Source:-" Quran " ~ S-Anfaal   #8:53 } Allaah has informed us that He will not remove from the sons of Aadam, the good things He has granted to them unless they alter that which is within them.    That is to say, a person changes obedience to Allaah to disobedience to Allah, and gratitude to ingratitude.     He turns from the causes of Allaah's pleasure to the causes of Allaah wrath.   Thus, when the servant transforms, a befitting compensation is specially prepared to suit his condition.    And, your Lord is not a wrongdoer to His servants. In the same manner, if the human being changes disobedience to obedience,   Allaah replaces Punishment with Pardon . Verily! Allaah will not change the good condition of a people as long as they do not change their state of goodness themselves. But when Allaah wills a people's punishment, there can be no turning back of it and they will find besides Him no protector.   { Source:- 'Quran'-S-Rad #13:11 }  It was beautifully said:- ' If you are in a (pasture) of a good grace, then graze therein For indeed sins are diminished by obedience to Allaah . And your Lord is swift in retribution Beware of oppression to the best of your ability'. Oppression reaps evil consequences And travel within your heart amongst mankind that it may see the remnants of those who were ill-treated These, their dwellings are testimony against them.   There was nothing more destructive to them than tyranny And it ( tyranny) is that which shatters -And how many have been expelled from gardens and castles while others were overwhelmed by flood and scorched by fire And the blessings they obtained passed away like the  dream.' 'Do you know what that Smell is? That is the Stench of those who gossip & backbite the believers' .     [Source:-Ahmad, Al-Adab al Mufrad)] Source:-The Book: Sins and their Punishment by Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah 691-751 A.H.      My ' Salaams ' To You All.                                          Y a s m i n.                                         "All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever}   the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"  {'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 } 'Wasting time is Worse than Death! Because Death Separates you from this World  Whereas wasting Time Separates you from Allah'. Ibn Qayimm Al-Jawziyyah.   I Want to Die With my Forehead on the Ground! The Sunnah in my Heart, Allah on my Mind, Qur'an on my Tongue, and Tears in my Eyes! 'Insha Allah'!  ' Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days, whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone.  {Al-Hasan Al-Basree}
