THE WAY OF PURIFYING ONE’S INNER-SELF: 12 (a talk by Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani DB)

 Hazrat Thanvi (may Allah Ta’ala bless him) explained that this tells us that Shariah has also set limits on being kind to people. The commandment of being nice to people is not limitless, to the extent that it places that person in great difficulty. A person is not obligated to continue to be nice if another person keeps hurting him over and over and over again. Then he is allowed to set boundaries. Allah Ta’ala has not obligated us for things which are beyond our limits. Shariah has clearly set boundaries on to what extent we are obligated, and not after that.

Hadhrat Mufti Muhammad Shafi (may Allah have mercy on him) used to say that Paradise is not cheap. If you really want to go to Paradise then you will have to make some effort for it. Draw up a list of all your acquaintances, all your friends, all your relatives, and then seek forgiveness from all of them.
