قصة العالم و تلميذه
(قصة العالم و تلميذه)
سأل عالم تلميذه: منذ متى صحبتني؟
سأل عالم تلميذه: منذ متى صحبتني؟
فقال التلميذ: منذ ثلاثة وثلاثين سنة...
فقال العالم: فماذا تعلمت مني في هذه الفترة؟!
قال التلميذ: ثمان مسائل...
قال العالم: إنا لله وإنا إليه راجعون ذهب عمري معك ولم تتعلم ألا ثمان مسائل؟!
قال التلميذ: يا أستاذ لم أتعلم غيرها ولا أحب أن أكذب...
فقال الأستاذ: هات ما عندك لأسمع
قال التلميذ:
الأولى:أني نظرت إلى الخلق فرأيت كل واحد يحب محبوبا فإذا ذهب إلى القبر فارقه محبوبة فجعلت الحسنات محبوبي فإذا دخلت القبر دخلت معي.
الثانية:أني نظرت إلى قول الله تعالى: "وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِ وَنَهَى النَّفْسَ عَنِ الْهَوَى ، فَإِنَّ الْجَنَّةَ هِيَ الْمَأْوَى"فأجهدت نفسي في دفع الهوى حتى استقرت على طاعة الله.
الثالثة:أني نظرت إلى هذا الخلق فرأيت أن كل من معه شيء له قيمة حفظه حتى لا يضيع. ثم نظرت إلى قول الله تعالى: " مَا عِندَكُمْ يَنفَدُ وَمَا عِندَ اللّهِ بَاقٍ " فكلما وقع في يدي شيء ذو قيمة وجهته لله ليحفظه عنده.
الرابعة:أني نظرت إلى الخلق فرأيت كلا يتباهى بماله أو حسبه أو نسبه.ثم نظرت إلى قول الله تعالى: " إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِندَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ" فعملت في التقوى حتى أكون عند الله كريما.
الخامسة:أني نظرت في الخلق وهم يطعن بعضهم في بعض ويلعن بعضهم بعضا وأصل هذا كله الحسد.ثم نظرت إلى قول الله عز وجل: "نَحْنُ قَسَمْنَا بَيْنَهُم مَّعِيشَتَهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا" فتركت الحسد واجتنبت الناس وعلمت أن القسمة من عند الله فتركت الحسد عني.
السادسة:أني نظرت إلى الخلق يعادي بعضهم بعضا ويبغي بعضهم على بعض ويقاتل بعضهم بعضا.ونظرت إلى قول الله تعالى: "إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ فَاتَّخِذُوهُ عَدُوًّا" فتركت عداوة الخلق وتفرغت لعداوة الشيطان وحده.
السابعة:أني نظرت إلى الخلق فرأيت كل واحد منهم يكابد نفسه ويذلها في طلب الرزق حتى انه قد يدخل فيما لا يحل له.ونظرت إلى قول الله عز وجل: "وَمَا مِن دَآبَّةٍ فِي الأَرْضِ إِلاَّ عَلَى اللّهِ رِزْقُهَا" فعلمت أني واحد من هذه الدواب فاشتغلت بما لله عليّ وتركت ما لي عنده.
الثامنة:أني نظرت إلى الخلق فرأيت كل مخلوق منهم متوكل على مخلوق مثله , هذا على ماله وهذا على ضيعته وهذا على صحته وهذا على مركزه .....ونظرت إلى قول الله تعالى "وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ" فتركت التوكل على الخلق واجتهدت في التوكل على الله.

(Story of Scholar and his pupil)
Scholar asked his pupil:
Since when you has been with me and learn from me?
Pupil said: Since Thirty-three years...
Professor Said: What did you learn during this period?
Pupil said: eight things...
Professor replied: "Ena Lee Allah Wa Ena Elyh Rajoon= We are Allah's "belong to GOD" and unto Him we are returning.". I wasted my life with you and you learnt only eight things!!!?.
Pupil said: Professor, I didn't learn more than these 8 things and I hate to lie.
Professor said: OK. Tell me what you learnt?.
Pupil said:
1st:
I looked at the creatures and I saw each one has a lover, but if he/she went to the grave, the lover will leave him/her. Therefore, I made my Good Deeds as my Lover, so if I went to the grave one day my good deeds will enter the grave with me.
2nd:
I looked at the words of God Almighty in the Holy Koran: "But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust, the Paradise will be his Home - 79:40-41". So, I worked so hard to keep myself away from my whims until I settled with obeying GOD only.
3rd:
I looked at the creatures; I saw that all those who have something valuable keep it not to be wasted. Then I looked at what God said: "That which ye have wasteth away, and that which Allah hath remaineth - 16:96". So, whenever occurred at my hands of something value, I push it to GOD to save it for me.
4th:
I looked at the creatures, I saw each one show off by his/her money or ancestry or pedigree. Then I looked at God saying: "the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in conduct - 49:13". So, I worked so hard to be pious, so GOD will consider me a noble.
5th:
I looked at the creatures; some of them are showing enmity toward each other, some curse each other and this is all because of envy. Then I looked at God Almighty saying: "We have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of the world - 43:32". Therefore, I left envy and hating people and learned that the livelihood is from God.
6th:
I looked at the creatures, who they are hostile to each other, showing enmity toward each other and fighting each other. Then, I looked to God saying: "The devil is an enemy for you, so treat him as an enemy - 35:6". Therefore, I left the enmity toward creatures, and considered Devil/Satan as my only enemy.
7th:
I looked at the creatures, I saw every one of them bearing and humiliating him/herself seeking of livelihood, which sometimes causes crossing the forbidden lines. I looked at what God Almighty said: "And there is not a creature in the earth but the sustenance thereof dependeth on Allah -11:6". So, I knew I am one of these creatures, so I took care of my duties and left my rights with God for Him.
8th:
I looked at all the creatures, I saw each one of them is depending on another creature. One on his money, one on his lands, one on his position…etc. Then, I saw God's saying "And whosoever putteth his trust in Allah, He will suffice him - 65:3". So, I left my depending on creatures, and I depend on my God only.
