Hurt by people on this world

:frowning: I loved a man for 5 yrs. He was a non mehram and I know I will get punished for it. I have repented many times and will not do it again. To make it clear i never allowed him to touch me, i used to love him in an emotional way and i wanted to marry him. I never used to meet him much but most we used to speak on the phone, when we used to pass each other in front of people it would be like we are strangers. My intentions were clean.

Last summer i went on holiday and he got engaged behind my back. Now religiously i know i have no rights on him but he this has hurt me a lot. i am very cut up deeply. i try to pray to ALLAH as much as i can to heal me but the hurt does not go away. He is happily marrying somone else, in my heart i cant forgive him and i want him to have ‘ehsas’ of how much he hurt me. I dont wish bad upon him but i want him to realise how much he hurt me and at the moment he hasnt…he is happily getting ready for his wedding while here i am all alone hurt.

I want to ask,

  1. if someone hurts another person’s feelings do they get punished for it on this world?

  2. If the person can’t forgive and forget, will they be forgiven by ALLAH because I read once that the person you hurt has to forgive you.

I would appreciate it if someone could answer me

Jazak ALLAH

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Sad to hear that, but I cannot help you but just pass on some kind words.

Sheikh Faraz Rabbani writes:

  1. Whenever you get a bad feeling towards her, make dua for her. This dua should be sincere and not condescending (i.e. not “O Allah, fix her many faults!”)—the scholars recommend, thus, that one ask for such a person’s good in this life first, and then their next life.

  2. Remember that we deal with people for the sake of Allah, not their sake. Even when people err, they remain the creation of Allah: we love them for who they are, not what they do. The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) told us that loving for Allah and hating for Allah is one of the signs of high faith.

  3. It is not necessarily to be close to everyone. Rather, one gives people the rights due to them: we treat them well, deal with them with excellence—for the sake of Allah, following the beautiful example of the Beloved of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace)--, wishing all good for them, and being of good counsel to them when they have a worldly or religious need one could benefit them in. We should share in the happiness of one’s family members, friends, and those whom we have dealings with, and should seek to help them when they are ill or in need.

Just make dua for him, that Allah may give him happiness. Don't hold anything against him in your heart. Just make dua and try to forget about it.
A haram relationship has its consequences. Just think of it as, Allah testing you.

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Exactly my story, exactly my feelings and exactly my situation. This thing happened to me 3 years ago. The only difference, I am a boy and you are a girl. I suffered it from a girl and you from a boy. My disaster was even bigger than you so keep your head up. You are not the only one who had thihs happen to her…

I cried, I repented, I did everything but only time healed me. Same would happen to you. So just wait.

Most importantly, do not make him realise anything right now. He will not. But he will come back to you ONCE. It is my guarantee to you. He WILL, very soon. At that time, you too REJECT HIM and don’t make him feel you are diening for him. At that time, he will only come to you to say sorry and to put his conscience at ease, NOTHING MORE. But the demage he has done to you is not something small. Just tell him, I leave my matter to Allah.

The girl came to me too (after 8 months), later on and I did the same, carried on with my life. Hoping Allah will forgive me for getting into such relation and something good will come up.

I opened up a personal story of my life, PARTLY, in an internet forum just to make others realize, these are just illusions ans the end result is not very good most of the time. In mine and chunni munni’s case, this happened to us before marriage. We are safe in later life. We have another chance to correct ourselves. If we were to marry such people, this would have been a disaster after marriage.

Please please please. My request to all Muslim borthers and sisters on this forum. Do not get into such infatuations. Relationships like this end up in a desaster most of the times.

Re: Hurt by people on this world

As for hurting others emotionally or physically, and there is no forgiveness then the whole issue will be brought up on the Day of Judgement.

It is reported that the Messenger of God (may peace be upon him) said: *
*"Do you know who is the one who is bankrupt? They (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) said: A bankrupt man amongst us is one who has neither dirham
with him nor wealth. He (the Holy Prophet) said: The bankrupt of my community would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrection with prayers and fasts and Zakat** but (he would find himself bankrupt on that day as he would have exhausted his funds of virtues) since he hurled abuses upon others, brought calumny*** against others and unlawfully consumed the wealth of others and shed the blood of others and beat others, and his virtues would be credited to the account of those who suffered at his hand. And if his good deeds fall short to clear the account, then the sins of those who suffered at his hand would be entered in his account and he would be thrown in the Hell-Fire"*

** A "dirham" is a currency unit.
** "Zakat" is the act of giving out of your wealth in charity.
*** "Calumny" is the act of uttering false charges or misrepresentations maliciously calculated to damage another's reputation.

The above Hadith was related in Sahih Muslim, Book 032, Number 6251. ( The Book of Virtue, Good Manners and Joining of the Ties of Relationship (Kitab Al-Birr was-Salat-I-wa'l-Adab) *

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Now let me answer your Qs.

Not necessarily.
Individual crimes **may not be punished here in this world (in exactly the same manner). Please note, I have said **may not be. A person might be punished both in this world and the hereafter. **It is upto Allah **to keep the punishment for the hereafter of for both this world and the other one.

In this case, we can only ask for Allah's forgiveness for our own actions. And He is "RAHEEM"

The other person, unless YOU forgive him, he will not be forgiven by Allah. But I'd say, let it go. Don't keep it in your heart. It is gonna demage you only.....

Hope I have given the answers to your question.

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Assalam O Aalaikom Chunni Munni sister,

How are you?

  • Make Dua
  • Have mercy on people, then Allah Tallah will have mercy upon you.
  • Control your thoughts, because evil thoughts bring evil actions. From controlling your thoughts and forgetting that love can only make you successful to your life.
  • Did that person intentionally hurt you? If yes, then read the second point as listed above. Please follow these points described above. I am out now.

Take Care sister,
Allah Hafiz!

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Chunni Munni: you are not the only one who has been through this. There are many others, who have loved someone and lost them, etc., etc.

I advise you to read more qur'an, make more du'a', try to gain more knowledge on Islam, and show kindness to your parents.

People come and people go. This is life. We're not here anyway in dunya to feel happiness, joy, etc., all of the time.

The son of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal asked his father one day:

*"O my father when will we ever relax?" *

His father looked him in the eye and said:

"With the first step we take into Jannah."

Meaning, this dunya is not for relaxation. You're always going to have responsibilites cast down on you, you're going to get tested, etc.

Also, what you did, you acknowledge was haram. And you regret it, which is a good sign and you made a sincere intention to not do it again, and asked Allah to forgive you: this is tawbah. Keep on asking Allah, and don't let it get you down. It's for the best you didn't marry him.

Those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Montheism), and whose hearts find rest in the remembrance of Allah. Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest. (Surah ar-Ra'd (13): 28)

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Good post.

Btw, is cageprisoners.com your website?

Re: Hurt by people on this world

:sara: :hugz:

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Thank you.

No, brother, it's not my website. However, it is one of the websites I visit on a regular basis and I advise all the Muslims and non-Muslims alike to visit this site. But especially the Muslims. We need to keep updated and informed about the plight of the prisoners. Please visit it and keep yourself updated and inform others. The issue regarding the Muslim Captives is a responsibility tied round to our necks and we will, indeed, be questioned about it on the Day of Judgement.

Unfortunately, we see many non-Muslims showing more interest and concern at the plight of our imprisoned brothers and sisters.

The website is not a "dangerous" website. It's safe to visit, and indeed, those of you who are in the UK will know about their regulat slot that is allotted to CagePrisoners on the Islam Chanel in the UK.

Re: Hurt by people on this world

Asslam-U-Alikum sister

You should thank Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala for guiding you on to the straight path, and repent him all the time for the evil actions you committed. Indeed, mixing up with non-meharams and having illegal relationship is a great evil act. If your repentence is sincere, then InshaAllah Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala will forgive all your sins and inshAllah you'll not be punished for what you did in the past.

[quote]
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And there is no sin on you concerning that in which you made a mistake, except in regard to what your hearts deliberately intend. And Allaah is Ever Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful” [al-Ahzaab 33:5]. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Every son of Adam commits sin, and the best of those who commit sin are those who repent.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2499; Ibn Maajah, 4251; classed as hasan by al-Albaani in * Saheeh* al-Tirmidhi. Allaah says in the Quran again(interpretation of the meaning): “Say: O ‘Ibaadi (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allaah, verily, Allaah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful”[al-Zumar 39:53]. *
Remember that Allaah will turn your bad deeds into good deeds if you do that. Listen to what our Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And those who invoke not any other ilaah (god) along with Allaah, nor kill such person as Allaah has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall receive the punishment.
*69. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace;

70. Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds; for those, Allaah will change their sins into good deeds, and Allaah is Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful” *[al-Furqaan 25:68-70]*

[/quote]

Therefore, sincere repentence will not only wipe your sins but Allah also promised that He will turn into good deeds. Allahhu Akbar! Indeed, *"Allaah is Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful"!

*Now as far concerning, if he or you will be punished for hurting each other, according to my best Knowledge, No, you will not! Because the relationship was illegal according to Islam and those feelings were raised by Shatan and he guided you on to the wrong path and now he's tricking you again by making you believe that by hurting each other you'll be punished by Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala. The best solution for you both is that repent to Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala for your evil deed, inshAllah, He'll draw your heart away from him or whatever feelings you have! Wallhuaalm (Allah knows best)

2- If the person can't forgive and forget, will they be forgiven by ALLAH because I read once that the person you hurt has to forgive you.
[/quote]

As far concerning this, yes the person who got hurt have to forgive the person who have hurt him/her in order to his/her repentence to be accepted in front of Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala. Allah only forgives those sins which were done against him, means not obeying his commands and orders but He will not forgive those sins that were committed by hurting others.

Also, you must notice that Allah Subhaanhu Wa Ta'ala is the most merciful and Gafoour-ur-Raheem, He forgives His salves or ture believers even though they comit so many sins. Prophet (SAW) also forgave his enemies for whatever they did to him. Then why can't we forgive each other/ our fellow muslim brothers/sisters?

In Islam there's nothing wrong if a person likes/loves someone as long that person has good/clean & halal intentions, keeps that secret to only himself/herself and looking forward to marry that person or pray to Allah that he/she can marry to that person. However, no talking or expressing her/his feelings are allowed and that'll be considered haram and the realtionship will become haram because they both are non-meharam to each other. **There's hadith that says a person who really loves someone and wants to marry that person but he dies before, he is a shaheed (martyrad). Hence, as long as we can keep our hearts clean from any kind of shatani evil and thoughts and doesn't lose Allah's love from our hearts, it's halal to love a person. However, we shouldn't forget that our beloved Prophet (SAW) advised us to marry only those who are religiously committed. And please don't cross the Islamic boundries.**

Wallhuaalm (Allah knows best)
