Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Islamic Family-life Ethics The Seventh Talk Mutual Understanding At Home In the previous talk it was discussed that Islam strongly disapproves of dissensions and disagreements. Opposed to these, friendliness, affection, unity and brotherhood are given prime importance. These traits are considered sacred by Islam.
The Holy Quran says that one very significant characteristic of the inhabitants of Hell is that when they meet on the Day of Judgment, they will all be cursing each other. Each one will blame the other for making him hell-bound! The other will counter him with a similar argument. The Herald will announce that Allah's retribution for both of them will be doubled! Firstly because they spoke ill of the believers in the world and then because they forced others to speak ill about themselves.
These led us astray, so give them double torment of the Fire. He saith:For each one there is double (torment) but ye know not. **(** Sura al-’Araf, 7: 38) Alas! You are unaware. The sign of the inhabitants of the Hell, therefore, is that they will talk ill of each other and none of them is ready to accept his own fault. Blaming Each Other Whenever a husband and wife are in disagreement, none of them wants to take the blame for any mistake.
The husband says that the wife has been the cause of his troubles and the wife counters with a similar claim. The husband says that the children have gone astray because of the wife's shortcomings in their upbringing. A house where such criticizing and exchange of foul language, takes place is like hell. These people will come to know only when the curtains are raised! I would like to inform the ladies and the gentlemen that the world and the hereafter are the two sides of the same coin!
The apparent side of the coin is the world and the hidden side is the hereafter. Whatever happens in this world, its reality will become evident and clear in the hereafter! If the fire of Hell comes upon us, it is the result of our own acts!
