"No doubt! the dependence of
actions is based upon intentions, so, every person is having what he has
intended to. He who migrates to earn the world or to get affinited to a woman,
his migration is towards that thing, to which he has migrated." Bukhari (Kitab ul wahi: 1)
Description through Story:
Far from the city, there was a
small village. The villagers were having a peaceful life. They used to go to
the fields and did work from dawn to dusk, sent their children to the primary
school, women were enjoying their rights and all of them were having a simple
and contented life free from any sort of compulsion and threat. All was going
well untill Saith Pervaiz arrived to this valley of peace. He was handed over
the governance of the village. In the start all the things went well but with
the passage of time different sort of gossips started among the people
regarding the performance of Saith. The freshness of dawn and the beauty of
dusk started decreasing as the days were passing.
The morning prayer call spreaded
and the sleeping world of the village woke up in no time, the dim courtyards of
the homes lit up and the life began to furnish all around. Men took their way
to the masque and some stayed at home and offered prayer because it was not
that much secure now to leave the homes emptied with the male members. On
returning from the Mosque a group was gossipping in low voice about the current
situations of the village.
Abdullah was telling a new crime
attempt in a nearby house, “do you people know that a group of people came to
Abdul Raheem’s home and snatched all the cash they were having at home? And when
Abdul Raheem tried to defend, they beat him with wooden bars… Poor Abdul Raheem
is not even able to offer prayer.”
“What?? I can’t believe on it!”
said Mansha “ what is happening in our village these days? Things are going
wrong as they never had been. It seemed as a bad coincident in the start but
now the events happening as they are pre-scheduled”
“I think we should go to Abdul
Raheem to ask about his health and also about what actually happened to him”
Abdullah suggested.
“Yes we ought to visit him” the
other men agreed with Abdullah.
They all went to Abdul Raheem’s
home to get to know about the sad incident.
“Asslam o Alaikum (A Muslim’s
greeting) Abdul Raheem how are you feeling now?” asked Mansha.
“Wa alaikum Salam! (reply to the
greeting) I’m feeling good now by the grace of ALLAH.” said Abdul Raheem.
“It’s quite sorry to know about
your incident, what do you think, who can do this to you?” asked Abdullah.
“My Dear Friends! You are not
that much ignorant of the hidden facts. You know that I was near to win the
rank of mair when Saith Pervaiz came and got the desired rank. I don’t know why
is he doing this to me? I am not of the view to harm him anyway but he is
always there to find ways to irritate and exploit me.” said Abdul Raheem.
“Are you sure the men were sent
by Saith?” Mansha inqured.
“There left no doubt when they
said this themselves.” Abdul Raheem said in a feable voice. “and I’m sure he
will do something to get my reputition down in the village, he is not able to
bear that I’m the richest person in the village.”
“That’s pretty bad, Saith is
lowering his rank from that of a human being” Mansha commented.
“I think we should leave now and
let Abdul Raheem take rest, as we are getting late to go to our work.” Abdullah
interrupted.
“Yes Abdullah you are right, we
ought to go now” the other men voted on the feet and stood up to leave.
“okay Abdul Raheem get well soon
and take much care of yourself” they said and left.
There was a large gathering at
Saith Pervaiz’s bangalo, in the afternoon. Saith had announced in the village
that every person is invited to him, as he is going to make some important
announcement. So the people were anxiously waiting for Saith’s appearance to
the grand courtyard. The patience of the people was almost at the ending point
when Saith appeared before them. Saith asked all of them to sit on the chairs
and listen to what he is going to say and watch the things he was going to show
them. This added to the curiousty of the people but somehow they managed to
hold themselves and sat silently. Now Saith began.
“In the name of Almighty Allah
the most grecious and the most merciful. My dear brothers, sisters, fathers and
mothers, May peace be upon all of you.” Everyone was wondering that for the
very first time in these six months of his governance Saith used such a kind
language for them. “I know all of you are curious about the cause of today’s
meeting, and you are right at your part because I’m going to reveal those facts
before you which you never had thought of during my governance.” Saith took a
little pause and continued “I know that this beloved village of ours had never
met such hard situations before my arrival, but during these five to six months
you have been subjected to a lot of problems. And I think this is enough to
portray an evil image of mine..” he took a pause again then resumed “ But today
I’m able to show you the real causes of all these prevailing conditions” saying
this he took out a red paper with some scripture on it and showed that to the
crowed “Do any one of you know the specification of this paper?” there was a
long pause but no body answered instead the whispers started rising through the
crowd. “ well! I think all of you are ignorant of the fact that there is only
one person in this village who keeps such a kind of paper collection and he is
Adbul Raheem”
“What is written on the paper?”
someone asked through the crowed as he got angry upon listening the name of
Abdul Raheem.
“Here is a map of the godown that
was robbed a couple of days before and a few lines narrating the guidelines to
follow the map” Saith just stopped after saying this and again a large number
of people started murmurring in an angry tone.
“You are telling a lie..” Umar
came forward and dared to spoke. “..I know you may order your people to give me
capital punishment but being a Muslim I know that raising a voice for right
before a qruel king is also jehad, and what kind of a person Abdul Raheem is,
we all know this very well”
There was a pin drop silence in
the crowed after the echo of these sentences.
Saith clapped for Umar and ask
him to come near, every body got stunned to see the next moments as they all
were percieving a worst end of Umar that very moment. Umar went to Saith and he
patted his shoulder and said “I’m proud of you Dear Umar and I’m feeling good
to see that I’ve such righteous people in my governance.” Abdullah and Mansha
were also present there and suddenly it flashed through their minds that they
saw a red paper, like that on display by Saith, in the morning when they went
to meet him, in the last drawer of the bed side table of Abdul Raheem when his
son was taking out some tablets for Abdul Raheem from there.
“Saith you are right, I we saw
this paper at Abdul Raheem’s home” Abdullah said loudly. Whole of the corwed
again got shocked. But Abdullah was a credible person so the people had to
believe on what he said. This was the time when the people came to know that it
was Abdul Raheem and not Saith Pervaiz who was spreading the terror and Saith
further told them that he was known of the acts of Abdul Raheem but all he
wanted to gather witnesses against him so he governed silently during the whole
period and took all of the bad opinions on him. The crowd started begging
pardon to Saith, for taking him wrong. Then Saith narrated a Hadith :
“No doubt! the dependence of
actions is based upon intentions, so, every person is having what he has
intended to. He who migrates to earn the world or to get affinited to a woman,
his migration is towards that thing, to which he has migrated.”
After this he said “I’ve no anger
for all you people because all of you were following the results extracted from
the facts. And no one of you was of an intention to take right as wrong so
they’ve been absolutely on a right path and there is no disappointment about
their behaviour. “
“Didn’t you get hurt on all the
rumours about you?” someone asked from the crowd.
“Not at all, because I was with a
pure and right intention and I had a belief that Almighty will bless me for my
intentions.” Saith replied.
That day Saith Pervaiz got a new
and good rank before the people and Abdul Raheem, for being proved as a
criminal, was subjected to his destined results.
really nice work... specially i like the true Islamic touch in the society... keep it up... my prayers are with you ayesha...
