The life of the predecessors between words and deeds

Self-accountability
0:14
The importance and virtue of holding oneself accountable
0:21
Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, said
0:24
Adorn yourselves before you commit adultery
0:28
And hold them accountable before you are held accountable
0:31
It will be easier for you in the reckoning tomorrow
0:35
To hold yourselves accountable
0:38
They were decorated for the biggest show
0:41
On that day you will be exposed, not a single thing will be hidden from you
0:48
Al-Sari Al-Saqati, may God have mercy on him, said:
0:51
Who held himself accountable
0:53
God is ashamed of his reckoning
0:57
On the authority of Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may God have mercy on him, he said:
1:01
The believer is self-sufficient
1:04
He holds himself accountable to God Almighty
1:07
But the reckoning will be hidden on the Day of Resurrection
1:10
Against a people who held themselves accountable in this world
1:14
Rather, the reckoning will be divided on the Day of Resurrection
1:17
On the people who took this matter without accountability
1:22
The believer is suddenly surprised by something that he likes
1:25
He says, “By God, I crave you.”
1:29
And you are the one I need
1:31
But by God, there is no connection to you
1:35
Far from it, there is no problem between you and me
1:40
Something is too much for him
1:42
Then he returns to himself and says:
1:45
What I wanted to do with this
1:48
What do I have to do with this?
1:50
By God, I will never go back to this, God willing
1:55
The believers are a people who are trusted by the Qur’an
1:59
And he prevented them from being destroyed
2:02
The believer is a prisoner in this world
2:06
He seeks to break his neck
2:09
Nothing is safe until he meets God Almighty
2:13
He knows that his hearing and sight are being controlled
2:18
And his tongue and his surroundings
2:21
He said, may God have mercy on him
2:23
The man was pricking a fork
2:26
He says
2:28
I know that you are guilty
2:31
And my Lord Almighty has not wronged me
2:34
Guidance and advice on self-accountability
2:40
Al-Rabi’ bin Khathim, may God have mercy on him, said
2:46
If you speak
2:48
Remember, God hears you
2:50
And if you care
2:52
Remember his knowledge of you
2:54
And if you look
2:56
Remember his look at you
2:58
And if you think
3:00
So remember what is upon you
3:03
For God Almighty says
3:06
Hearing, sight, and heart
3:09
All of those were responsible for him
3:13
On the authority of Maimun bin Mahran, may God have mercy on him, he said:
3:17
Do not be a pious man
3:19
So that he can hold himself more accountable
3:23
From partner to partner
3:25
And he even knows where his clothes, food, and drinks come from
3:30
Ibn al-Muqaffa, may God have mercy on him, said
3:34
The wise person must take care of himself
3:37
Equal in religion, morals, and etiquette
3:41
He collects all of this on his chest or in a book
3:46
Then he exposes himself frequently
3:49
And it costs her to fix it
3:52
This is put to good use
3:55
From repairing the defect, the two defects, and the defect
3:59
On the day, Friday or month
4:02
Every time he fixes something, he erases it
4:05
Whenever he looked at Erase, he became happy
4:09
Whenever he looked at Thabet, he became depressed
4:15
Stories and facts about self-accountability
4:21
Omar saw Abu Bakr, may God be pleased with him
4:24
And the tongue protruded
4:26
I take him by the hand
4:28
And he said
4:29
What are you doing, O successor of the Messenger of God?
4:32
And he said
4:34
Did the resource tell me anything but this?
4:38
On the authority of Anas bin Mark, he said:
4:41
I heard Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, one day
4:45
I went out with him until he entered a wall
4:49
So I heard him saying, and there was a wall between me and him
4:53
It is in the hollow of the wall
4:56
Omar, Commander of the Faithful, blah blah
5:00
God built the speech
5:03
Either you fear God or He will torture you
5:07
On the authority of Salamah bin Mansour
5:11
On the authority of a servant of theirs who was accompanying Al-Ahnaf bin Qais, may God have mercy on him, he said
5:16
I was accompanying him
5:18
His general prayer at night was supplication
5:22
He was coming to the lamp
5:25
He puts his finger in it and then says
5:28
Oh Hanif
5:30
What made you do what you did on such and such day?
5:34
What made you do what you did on such and such day?
5:38
A man attacked Abu Muawiyah Al-Aswad, may God have mercy on him
5:43
And he said
5:44
I ask God for forgiveness for the sin that you have imposed on me
5:49
Hassan bin Abi Sinan, may God have mercy on him, passed by a room
5:55
And he said
5:56
Since I built this
5:59
He said
6:00
Then he came back to himself and said
6:03
And what do you have to do since you have built?
6:06
You ask what does not concern you
6:09
He was a man who followed Sufyan al-Thawri, may God have mercy on him
6:14
He always finds himself emerging from a brick and looking into it
6:19
He wanted to know what was in it
6:22
The patch fell into his hand
6:25
And it was written in it
6:27
Sufyan
6:29
Remember your standing in the hands of God Almighty
6:33
On the authority of Abu Sulayman al-Darani, may God have mercy on him, he said:
6:39
I heard Abu Jaafar Al-Mansur crying during his sermon on Friday
6:45
It made me angry
6:47
I was intent on going up to him and speaking to him about what I had heard from him
6:53
And what I know of what he did if he came down
6:57
Then I thought that I wanted to go to the Caliph and preach to him
7:02
People were sitting and staring at me
7:06
The outfit enters me
7:09
He orders me to kill me
7:12
I will be killed without correction
7:15
So I sat down and calmed down
7:17
Al-Sari Al-Saqati, may God have mercy on him, said:
7:22
I hid my fault for thirty years
7:25
This is because we were a group going early to Friday
7:30
We have places that have known us
7:33
We can hardly be without it
7:36
A man from our neighbors died on Friday
7:40
I wanted to attend his funeral
7:43
So I sent her away and sacrificed my time
7:46
Then I came wanting Friday
7:49
When I approached the mosque
7:52
She told me myself
7:54
Now they see you as a sacrifice
7:57
And you missed your time
7:59
This was difficult for me
8:02
So I said to myself
8:04
I see you as a hypocrite for thirty years
8:07
I don't know
8:09
So I left that place where I was coming
8:13
So I started praying in different places
8:17
Because he doesn't know where I am or anything like that
8:23
The importance of knowing one's faults and defects
8:27
And kneel with people
8:32
Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, said
8:35
Don't worry about mentioning people
8:38
It is a scourge
8:40
And you must remember God
8:43
It is a mercy
8:45
He also said, may God be pleased with him
8:48
People love me
8:50
Who guided me to my faults?
8:53
Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, said
8:56
One of you sees the speck in his brother's eye
9:00
He forgets the stump in his eye
9:04
Bilal bin Saad, may God have mercy on him, said
9:07
Reminding you of your good deeds and forgetting your bad deeds
9:12
Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may God have mercy on him, said
9:15
Son of Adam
9:17
You are not hitting the truth of faith
9:20
So that you do not shame people with a defect in you
9:24
And until you start correcting that defect in yourself
9:28
So you fix it
9:30
If you do that
9:32
Didn't fix the defect
9:34
Unless you find another defect that cannot be fixed
9:37
If you do that
9:40
Your job was in private
9:43
The most beloved of the servants to God Almighty is he who is like this
9:48
Aoun bin Abdullah, may God have mercy on him, said
9:51
I don't think anyone is devoted to people's faults
9:55
Except for his own negligence
10:00
It was narrated on the authority of some predecessors that he said:
10:03
I realized people had no flaws
10:06
They mentioned people's faults
10:09
So people mentioned their faults
10:12
I realized that people had flaws
10:15
Stop pointing out people's faults
10:18
I forgot their faults
10:20
Or as he said
10:22
Omar bin Abdul Aziz, may God have mercy on him, said
10:25
A joke from his master
10:27
The governors made eyes on the common people
10:31
And I will make you my eyes
10:35
If you hear a word from me, disavow me
10:39
Or actually you don't like it
10:42
So he advised me and forbade me from doing so
10:46
Al-Fudayl bin Iyad, may God have mercy on him, said
10:49
Your business is in yourself
10:52
Don't let your business be in anyone else's business
10:55
Whoever has his job in someone else
10:58
He deceived him
11:00
Al-Sari Al-Saqati, may God have mercy on him, said
11:03
From the lure sign
11:05
Blindness to one's own faults
11:08
He also said, may God have mercy on him
11:11
Only an ignorant person is aware of the faults of creation
11:15
Whoever covers it will not tear it except he is cursed
11:20
Self-struggle
11:25
Abu Muslim Al-Khawlani, may God have mercy on him, said
11:30
Have you seen a soul if I honor it and bless it?
11:34
I will be blamed tomorrow before God
11:37
Even if I insulted her, set her up, and did her wrong
11:41
You will praise me before God tomorrow
11:44
He said: Who are you, Abu Muslim?
11:48
He said, “By God, my soul.”
11:52
Qatada, may God have mercy on him, said
11:56
Son of Adam
11:58
If you do not want goodness to come except actively
12:02
Your soul tends towards boredom and boredom
12:07
But the believer is prejudiced
12:10
And the pious believer
12:13
And the believers still say, “Our Lord is our Lord.”
12:17
In secret and in public
12:19
So he responded to them
12:22
Muhammad bin Al-Mankadir, may God have mercy on him, said
12:25
I depressed myself for forty years
12:28
Until she straightened out
12:31
Abu Yazid Al-Bastami, may God have mercy on him, said
12:34
I called myself to God
12:37
Ali refused and found it difficult
12:40
So I left her and went to God
12:43
A life of peace
12:48
Between words and action
