Never tease a worthy human being ever in life
(Abdul Rehman Mir, Islamabad)
Sabir seemed very upset and was
shouting at his best friend. His friend abused him using very infuriating words
and left the spot. I supported Sabir and gave him a glass of water so he could
recover his sense. I never saw him in such arrogant and angry mood. He has been
very humble, kind, loving, caring, sympathetic and friendly to everyone in his
life. People who came across him always praised his being a very perfect human
being. I asked him why was he quarrelling with his best friend. He just said if
his friend had not done a favor in his life, he would not have made any
relationship with him. I asked him what kind of favor? He said that his friend
had given him blood when he was in need. ‘Since that day he had been exploiting
me’ said Sabir. I did everything for him. I gave him first before I ate
anything. I fulfilled everything whatever he demanded. I tolerated every
humiliation when he insulted me just for the sake of the precious blood he gave
me. After all what he wants me to do? Does he want me to give me the blood he
gave me earlier? Should I keep on paying for the blood until I die? I did
everything whatever he asked me to do but I would never give him back the blood
as it is the part of my life now. Today onwards, people will see that humbleness
may also become violent and unfriendly when a humble man is persistently
compelled to be so. Human crude and brute nature behave wildly when they acquire
a little power and impose their power wherever they get a chance. As a result,
humble and compassionate people are depressed and suppressed. I said; Sabir!
cool down. Allah likes those who bear all the hardships of life. Sabir replied,
I know everything but sometimes we should also repair the vehicles if they don’t
work properly. Allah will not repair the vehicle for you. I said; if you have
strong faith and belief in Allah like the Prophet Ibrahim had when he was
throwing into a big inferno. He was protected by Allah as he had firm belief in
The Merciful and The Omnipotent.
