Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
on the day of the judgment the culprit will be punished but he should also be punished in life too so that he may not commit the same mistake again n again
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na…
I get fed up with people saying ‘shabbash shak, bus Allah nay chaaha to kaamyaabi mili’ whenever I do something worthwhile (which in itself is true). But as soon I fail on something its ALL MY fault. Not saying its God’s fault or something but..
Its basically not giving me any credit too is it? I get zero credit for success, all the credit for failure.
This thing isn’t just me, seen it happen a zillion times in Pakistani families.
Look at our cricket team. When they win, its ‘bus Allah ki marzi hai’
As soon as we lose its ‘saaray nikammay kaam chor khilaari, maaro aanday aur chittar in ko’
:halo:
I've known it to be used to warn someone about doing something but not the way you mentioned it.
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
nadz... I agree with you, Allah is probably thinking inn logon ko dimagh dai kar mainay time waste kiya.... things should not be hidden or brushed under the carpet. People need to find the courage to face certain situations and defend themselves and get the culprit punished for his deeds, sirf yeh keh dainay sai kuch nahin hota kay "Allah humein justice dilaaye ga". Thank God my family is not like that, they use their brains and fight for their rights.

Haha, yes! my mom loves using that line. that or "Allah khud pooche ga"
lol..ye line mai har waqt ghar mai sunti hun parents se.."Allah dekh raha hai" wo to definetly dekh raha hai but hum kuch kyun nahi karte hain !!! sigh.
so true!
Lol…thats so true,thats my parents line but they usually say
“lagta hain rishwat laye hain aaj”
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
They do this because often times they wont' have much proof and dont want to confront someone without any solid proof.
Another reason is because they don't want to ruin their own reputations.
And ultimately, breaking ties with family members is a big thing both in our culture and in our religion--so they would rather let Allah (swt) deal with that person rather than do it themselves.
You might not agree with these reasons, but it is what it is....
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
It bothers me A LOT, but it is very true at the same time. I believe that if someone wrongs another- like slander, lying, cheating, etc.- the punishment will come in it's own form from Allah (SWT) whether in this lifetime or the next and it's worse than revenge.
Now if someone commits a crime, you don't let that go and say Allah will deal with you. The law enforcement and punishments are there for a reason.
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
I think unfrotunately too many people, while the intentions are right (to not break ties or hurting someone with false accusations), it ends up backfiring by rewarding bad behavior, or worse, letting abuse take place.
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
I have known a family who always say "humain bhi to apni qabar main jana hai " by saying that they show that they are so God fearing that they won't hurt anyone but infact they are the most abusive , manipulative & selfish family I have ever seen.
Same is with *Allah to dekha raha hai *. These types of statements are clichés and are used only to make an impressionon on people but you'll hardly find anyone who believes on these.
And yes Allah dekhtha hai, and I strongly believe in karma "what goes around comes around" whenever someone do sabar over some mistreatment / injustice of others , that sabar does come around and the wrong doer do get what they deserve.

why dont you give police a call? the more you open about yourself the less private your life will be. contemporary justice system (along with handling media+minority rights ) is less painful than the actual problem one faces.

Whenever we feel a situation in which we feel uncomfortable or not in control, we say such statements as quoted by you because,
1. ALLAH is always controlling every situation and we are always dependant on HIM. This is just a realization we get at thet particular time.
- We have faith in ALLAH and we say that as we leave our matters on HIM, and HE does the best for us.
Calling the police is a headache in Pakistan, until you are backed by Authority or media.
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
nadz123 tum iss tarha k posts ker rahee hoo na, allah daikh raha hai!
PS: on serious note, thinking changes with time. When one have kids (even 20 years old kids) they tend to stay away from controversies and things. You will understand this when you will have kids. I find myself getting less aggressive to these things day by day after becoming father. I dont confront many who I would have when I was single. I dont want to come hard at our elders for this.
Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
^ but then how u explain those people who let others abuse or mistreat their children? Whats more harmful for the child's well being, the abuse itself being swept under the rug, or the "controversy"?
I know where you are coming from but thats too specific case. I was talking in general terms like a family living in some area see someone getting stabbed or see people selling stolen products etc. Household politics is totally a different matter.
I am not sure what kind of parents these people (you are talking about) are, but personally I might NOT stand for myself and forgive but for my kids; someone better not mess with them. I am sure there is not a single parent in the world who willingly allow others to abuse their kids. Its just against the concept of parenthood

Re: Allah to dekh raha hai na......
Ok not just abuse but let's say on a lesser extent an elder who constantly puts your child down because they're too quiet/loud/dark/skinny/fat/whatever and thus ruins their self esteem. I know as a child I had many instances where I was angry at my parents for staying quiet or laughing along with comments that relatives or aunties made at me.
And then in a grave situation such as sexual/physical abuse, I dont know how wide spread it is but I know of at least a few incidents where a child was molested or abused and the family didn't do ANYTHING to the person.
Anyways I guess I'm being too specific and going off on a tangent here...but the reasons why people keep thsi attitude of letting Allah deal with them (in order to avoid hurting feelings or breaking ties or protecting themselves and their families etc), they may be with good intentions but often have adverse effects in certain situations and become less about good intentions and more about being a coward adn a loser.
