Purifying the world

– How do we purify the world?- asked a disciple.

Ibn al-Husayn replied:

– There was once a sheik in Damascus called Abu Musa al-Qumasi. Everyone honored him for his great wisdom, but no one knew whether he was a good man.

“One afternoon, a construction fault caused the house where the sheik lived with his wife, to collapse. The desperate neighbors began to dig the ruins; eventually, they managed to locate the sheik’s wife.

“She said: “Don’t worry about me. First save my husband, who was sitting somewhere over there.”

“The neighbors removed the rubble from the area she indicated, and found the sheik. He said: “Don’t worry about me. First save my wife, who was lying somewhere over there.”

“When someone acts as this couple did, he is purifying the whole world.”

  • hi all

    Recently, the love has been become as a business communication,… we never known what is the real meaning of love and how to sacrifice as well.

    Good luck to all and I love all

  • We are always expecting that we should be served and treated perfectly from the others. Specially when you are paying for this service…
    Eventually I was with a friend in a restaurant and the waiter was treating us like slaves!!! I was about to shout at him but my friend droped a remark that “it’s been late and it seems he was working from the early morning, poor him” I looked at him and it sounded true…

    Few days ago I was in restaurant in a different city and I encounterd the same situation. That time I decide to act positive and try to change his mood, I kept talking to him and saying jokes, also every single thing comes out of him I kept saying thank u so much, his face went to a cheerful person, he was so tired though.

    I’m kind of person who is dedicated to his work and expecting that everyone should do the same, we are paid so we have to work. that was my moto and always will be.
    But bear in mind that those people are not well paid. A nice word would be a good pay for them.

    • i totally agree with you nada, and this is what i always do, always try to be nice with people, they too might have a bad day, as u might do, put a smile on your face, it’s contagious.

  • This song is the example of what can happen if we could be love with all our strength. About how much our love can affect somebody’s life.
    I’m learning this too in every kind word of love I read in this blog.
    This is how we can purify the world if we knew to love that much.
