After the famous trip from Makka to Media ,
the prophet pbuh established brotherhood between the mihajiroun (people
coming from Makka) and al-ansar (the people of Madina) ,
He established brotherhood between Abdu'r-Rahman ibn 'Awf and Sa'd
ibn ar-Rabi' al-Ansari. The Ansari wanted to share his house and
property with him. But 'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn Awf said, 'May Allah bless you
in your family and property. Just show me the market.'
I gave
you this example because it shows the greatness of the prophet's
companions ! Abdu'r-Rahman ibn 'Awf was from al-muhajiroun (people
coming from Makka to Madina) , he had nothing with him , he did not have
a house or wealth , but when the Ansari wanted to share his property
with him , Abdu'r-Rahman ibn 'Awf said NO , and he asked to know where
is the market ,
He prefered working , he did not want to get a
house and a wealth without any effort , he said : "Just show me the
market" and by time he became rich again.
Today we have millions of muslims sleeping in their beds waiting for their governments to offer them nice jobs !
What if your government failed to offer you a job ? will you spend your
life waiting ? you should not be spineless , you must move and try to
get free jobs , Allah is Al-Razak , not your government !
You
must trust Allah and try to work everything you can , dont feel shame
from working , all prophets were Sheep breeders and they did not feel
shame but they were great people ..to get 1 Dollar per day from halal is
better than getting nothing !
The muslim should not sleep ,
this is the message of Islam ..and that is how we can make our Ummah
better ...In Islam work is given special importance to the extent that
it is considered as an act of worship in itself
`Umar ibn
Al-Khattab (ra), used to stress this point further by telling people,
“Never should anyone of you think that du`aa’ (supplication) for
sustenance without work will avail him, for heaven never rains gold nor
silver”
