PODSERIES: TRAITS OF THE SOUL – PART 17 OF 17

Another negative trait of the soul is when a person believes they require patience when in fact they should be showing gratitude to Allah, the Exalted. When a person faces a difficulty they should remember the countless blessings they still possess. And they should remember that Allah, the Exalted, only decrees the best for His servants even if they do not see the wisdoms behind the choice immediately. Chapter 2 Al Baqarah, verse 216:

“…But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah knows, while you know not.”

These truths will inspire one to show gratitude even in difficult situations where most people would expect one to demonstrate patience.

Among the negative traits of the soul is when one persistently acts on concessions instead of acting fully and correctly on the commands of Islam. A muslim must not adopt this attitude by failing to avoid doubtful things which can easily lead to the unlawful according to the Hadith found in Sahih Bukhari, number 2051.

Another negative trait of the soul is when one disregards their mistakes and sins. If a muslim persists on this attitude they will become use to these mistakes and sins and will then find it very difficult to sincerely repent from them. A muslim should therefore assess themself constantly and sincerely repent when they commit a sin and avoid disregarding it. One should never forget a mountain is made up of small stones.
