Do not curse

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said (English translation): 'When a person curses something or someone; the curse ascends towards the heaven, then all the gates of heaven are closed against it; thereafter it descends to the earth, and then the gates of the earth are closed against it. After this it turns towards the right and left and when it finds no way there too, it turns to the person or the thing which has been cursed and gets attached to him or it, if the same may deserve it; otherwise, it returns to the one who uttered it.' [ Abu Dawood ]
Allah prevent us from cursing and forgive everyone who has cursed, and take that curse away from him/her or the other person, ameen.

Inconvenience to another Muslim

The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said (English translation): “A man while walking along a path saw the branches of a tree lying there. He thought, ‘By Allah, I shall remove these from this road, so that they may not harm the Muslims, and he was admitted to Jannah.” [Sahih Muslim]

Lesson: We should try to protect a Muslim from inconvenience and wish well for him/her. It is a conduct that entitles one to enter Jannah. A Muslim is a well-wisher of another Muslim and tries his best to save him from difficulty and hardship.

Clubbed to Death

0:01 In a world full of deceit, we're moving backwards like mindless sheep.

0:55 He starts to move against the system.

1:05 How, one way or another, we try to destroy each other.

1:37 Love can freeze time, and create it's own reality.

2:19 Falls and rises again, like we all should do.

2:58 That wall represents all that keeps us from being the best we can (addictions, procrastination, un­­­­fair laws, envy, etc.)

3:07 Comes back better, stronger, wiser. Children look up to us and take our example.
