THE WAY OF PURIFYING ONE’S INNER-SELF: 14 (a talk by Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani DB)

 Telling the difference between up until which point a person is not allowed to get angry, and beyond which he can get angry, is a very delicate matter and many people make mistakes about it. This is what a person learns through Suhbat(companionship, mentorship) of wise elders. This is not something which a person can learn just by reading a cookbook that you can express your anger in situation A but not in situation B. This is what one learns through discussing different situations he comes across with his Shaykh and then developing an understanding of which kind of situations it is okay to express one’s anger in. It is generally not possible to develop this understanding without Suhbat.

  Seek forgiveness from all your acquaintances   The next question is, who to seek forgiveness from? Who remembers how many people’s  Gheebat  we committed throughout our lives when we were completely neglectful about it? Should we draw up a list of all of them and ask all of them for forgiveness? 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.
