The first lesson is the int...Assalamu'Alaykum,<br /><br />The first lesson is the interpretation of the Law. The first shaykh believes in the purity of actions and intentions. The second shaykh recognised the inadequacy of the aspirant. It is like our relationship with God. By Shari'ah, to approach Him, we must have the purest intention and the purest actions with nothing of the taint of Self and worldliness. But sadly, it is impossible. Nothing we have is ours. Not even our worship since the time, the ability, the knowledge, everything is His. We are giving Him, our stolen sheep. By ihsan, God is Kind. And He allows it and takes what is inadequate and makes it adequate and so our worship and our supplications are accepted.<br /><br />The second lesson is that we must always speak well of others and believe they are better than us. It is the duty of a Muslim to cover the faults of another. It would be better to not see these as faults but simply a different and perhaps better understanding.<br /><br />I hope this helps.<br /><br />WassalamTerence Nunishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06071127118103190470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8724924986866131547.post-28048954070413433032012-01-25T13:45:54.949+08:002012-01-25T13:45:54.949+08:00Im struggling a bit to see the lesson here.
