Legitimate anger.
0:08
Among the methodological and ethical controls.
0:13
Is that anger must be for the sake of Allah.
0:17
When sacred boundaries are violated.
0:19
And not for one’s own personal objectives or desires.
0:23
This is how the Prophet, peace be upon him, taught his Companions.
0:29
He was among the gentlest of people.
0:31
He would neither become angry nor strike anyone.
0:33
Unless the sacred laws were infringed upon.
0:36
Therefore, when a woman from the Makhzum tribe stole during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him.
0:42
During the Conquest of Makkah.
0:44
Her people rushed to Usamah ibn Zayd to intercede for her.
0:49
Urwah said.
0:51
When Usamah spoke to him regarding her.
0:54
The face of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, changed color.
0:59
He said, "Are you interceding regarding one of the prescribed punishments of Allah?"
1:04
What provoked him here was the violation of the sacred boundaries.
1:09
And the intercession for a woman of high status among them.
1:12
He did not show favoritism to his beloved Usamah, the son of his beloved.
1:16
So Usamah said.
1:18
"Ask forgiveness for me, O Messenger of Allah."
1:21
When evening came.
1:23
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, stood to deliver a sermon.
1:28
He praised Allah as He deserves to be praised.
1:31
Then he said.
1:34
"To proceed."
1:35
"Those before you were destroyed only because."
1:38
"When a noble person among them stole, they would let him go."
1:43
"And when a weak person among them stole, they would carry out the punishment upon him."
1:47
"By the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad."
1:50
"If Fatimah, the daughter of Muhammad, were to steal."
1:54
"I would cut off her hand."
1:56
Then the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, gave the order.
1:59
Regarding that woman.
2:01
And her hand was cut off.
2:03
Her repentance was sincere after that, and she married.
2:07
Aisha said.
2:09
She would come after that.
2:11
And I would present her needs to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him.
2:17
People expected that Usamah’s closeness to him.
2:21
Would soften him and make him lenient.
2:24
But they forgot that such mercy and gentleness.
2:27
Do not apply in this context.
2:30
That is why he became angry at him and rebuked him.
2:33
"Are you interceding regarding one of the prescribed punishments of Allah?"
2:37
He used his own daughter as an example to demonstrate his sincerity.
2:40
And he warned against the danger of favoritism.
2:43
And that it is one of the causes of destruction.
2:47
The Prophet, peace be upon him, specifically singled out.
2:50
His daughter Fatimah for mention.
2:52
Because she was the dearest of his family to him.
2:55
And because none of his other daughters remained at that time.
3:00
He intended to emphasize the implementation of the law upon every accountable person.
3:05
And to abandon favoritism in that regard.
3:08
Furthermore, the name of the thief coincided with hers, peace be upon her.
3:13
So it was appropriate to use her as an example.
3:16
And he was the quickest of people to comply with the law.
3:20
And Allah is the Grantor of success.
