Gunah-Be-Lazzat

In the name of Allah, the Merciful

Alhamdulillah and sufficient and peace be upon his worshipers who have been appointed, but after:

Nowadays, after the time of Prophethood and due to the nearness of the Day of Judgment, there is a period of disbelief, polytheism, atheism, heresy, irreligion and inaction. As predicted by the Hadith, avoiding sins and adhering to religion has become as difficult as holding a burning coal in one's hand. A large number of Muslims no longer care whether the work they are doing is a sin or a reward, is lawful or unlawful, whether Allah is pleased with it or not.

Now, for those servants of God who are left to care about it, the world has become even more narrow. Even if they somehow save themselves from individual sins, how can they avoid collective sins that cover all sectors of life, such as agriculture, trade, employment, etc., since they are first and foremost against non-Muslims. And even those who have become Muslims by chance are free from religion and unconcerned, considering the discussion of lawful and unlawful as narrow-minded.

Those who give will complain to Allah and inna Allah and to Him shall we return

And the anger is that many people, having come to this conclusion due to their thoughtlessness and carelessness, have started saying that it is extremely difficult to follow the religion of Islam and the Sharia. However, if you think about it a little, you will find that there is no hardship or difficulty in the Sharia of Islam, but rather, it is the best way to live in the world.

It has more economic conveniences than all religions, however, when something is no longer a custom, and there are very few people who practice it, then the simplest thing becomes difficult. Wearing a cap and pajamas is somewhat easy, but if these things become obsolete in a region or country, and everyone becomes accustomed to living naked, covered in a sheet, or in a dhoti, then making and sewing caps and pajamas becomes a constant campaign. How easy it is to cook and eat bread and how necessary it is to live, but if in some place it is no longer an absolute custom, and everyone starts eating rice, see how difficult it will become to cook and eat bread.

The same situation should be understood in religious matters. First, it was natural for Muslims to face many difficulties in matters of halal and haram due to the majority of non-Muslims. However, if Muslims, despite being a minority, were bound by religious limits and restrictions, there was still a strong hope that there would be no problems in many matters.

After all, today, in this age of irreligiousness, many medicines from irreligious countries like Europe, with the concession of Hindus, are written on the labels that this medicine does not contain any animal ingredients. Why is this? Not because the manufacturers have any sympathy for Hinduism or are religiously inclined, but simply because they know that Hindus abstain from animal ingredients.

But to this day, we have not seen on any label that this medicine does not contain alcohol or spirits because the negligence and indifference of Muslims did not provide them with evidence that the Muslim nation abstains from it.

The bottom line is that all these hardships and difficulties are the result of our negligence and carelessness. If all Muslims were committed to religious matters, then prayer, fasting, Hajj, and Zakat would all become easy, and avoiding sin would become a natural thing.
