Hadith 6
"Whosoever of you sees an evil action, let him change it with his hand; and if he is not able to do
so, then with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart—and that is the
weakest of faith."
(a)
Islam instructs its followers to establish a true Islamic society based on the teachings of the
Quran and Sunnah.
It further commands them to defend the society against all forms of evil using whatever
resources are available.
This may involve physical intervention, verbal objection, or, at the very least, internal
condemnation—although the latter is the weakest degree of faith.
Believers must remember that struggling against evil is a continuous effort, as the ultimate
source of evil is Satan:
"Verily, Satan is an avowed enemy to man." (12:5)
(b)
The eradication of evil demands effort at varying levels depending on the available resources
within the Muslim community and government.
If sufficient means exist, the Muslim state may permit physical Jihad:
"Believers, strive hard in God's way with your possessions and yourselves." (49:15)
Otherwise, evil may be fought through speech or writing, and if an individual cannot even do
that, he is required to resist it in his heart.
The best way in such situations is to seek God's protection:
"Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of daybreak, from the evil of the things He created." (Al-Falaq)
Hadith 7
"It was said: O Messenger of Allah, who is the most excellent of men? He said: 'The believer
who strives hard in the way of Allah with his person and his property.' "
(a)
Jihad or striving in God's path is an act of worship and signifies the genuineness of faith.
It aims to suppress evil and resist aggression and injustice—always within the ethical limits set
by Islamic teachings.
Muslims believe all resources—material and physical—are gifts from God, and thus must be
placed at His service.
Those who sacrifice their lives in Jihad are considered alive in a special way:
"Nay, they live, finding their sustenance in the presence of their Lord." (3:169)
(b)
Jihad is the ultimate demonstration of faith as it involves the sacrifice of both possessions and
life.
Those who undertake it are trained to give without hesitation:
"Fighting is prescribed for you, though you dislike it." (2:216)
The Quran and the Prophet repeatedly praised those involved in Jihad, ranking them among the
best Muslims.
The Holy Prophet himself fought battles, suffered injuries, and witnessed the martyrdom of close
companions, including his uncle Hamza, who was named "the chief of all martyrs."
Hadith 8
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whom do you consider to be a martyr among you?' They replied:
'Whoever is killed in the way of Allah.' He said: 'Then the martyrs among my community will be
few! Rather, one who dies in the way of Allah—be it by natural death, plague, or cholera—is a
martyr.' "
(a)
This Hadith broadens the definition of martyrdom beyond the battlefield.
Muslims are taught that those who endure sudden or prolonged suffering leading to death—such
as natural death, plague, or cholera—also achieve martyrdom if they die with strong faith.
The phrase "in the way of Allah" stresses dying while maintaining sincere belief.
(b)
Believers are instructed to willingly accept death in God's way, whether through battle or
enduring physical suffering.
They must hold steadfast to the belief that life and death are in God's hands:
"Give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere—who say, when afflicted with calamity: 'To
God we belong, and to Him we return.'" (2:155-156)
Thus, faith should remain unshaken in the face of illness or sudden trials.
Hadith 9
"No one eats better food than that which he eats from the work of his own hands."
(a)
Islam links the effort to earn lawful sustenance directly with the fulfillment of religious duties.
"To earn a clean living is a duty next to the obligatory duties of faith." (Hadith)
Believers are encouraged to work hard and earn through lawful means, avoiding dependency on
others.
"One who works for himself is a friend of God."
Hard work thus brings both material blessings and divine pleasure.
(b)
Muslims should follow the example of the Prophet, who personally engaged in manual work,
such as mending shoes, sewing clothes, building mosques, and digging trenches.
They must reject unlawful means of earning like bribery, usury (riba), and beggary:
"The one who offers and the one who accepts the bribe will both go to the Fire of Hell."
Obedience to the Quranic command is essential:
"Eat of what is on earth, lawful and good, and do not follow the footsteps of Satan." (2:168)
Hadith 10
"One who manages the affairs of the widow and the poor man is like the one who exerts himself
in the way of Allah, or the one who stands for prayer at night or fasts during the day."
(a)
Islam teaches that fulfilling the rights of fellow human beings is part of true faith.
The Prophet equated serving the less privileged with acts of worship like night prayer and
fasting.
The Quran also criticizes those who neglect the poor:
"Have you seen the one who denies the Judgment? Then he is the one who repulses the orphan
and does not encourage feeding the poor." (107:1-3)
(b)
Following the Prophet’s example, Muslims are encouraged to help widows, orphans, and the
needy, discreetly and respectfully:
"Nor repulse the petitioner unheard." (93:10)
Charity should be given secretly, as highlighted by the Hadith:
"A man who gives charity so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand
spends."
Supporting a widow through remarriage (with her consent) is also Sunnah.
The weak and needy must be cared for just as the Prophet himself did throughout his life.

And (remember) when you said to him (Zayd bin Harithah) on whom Allah has bestowed grace
(by guiding him to Islam) and you have done favour (by manumitting him): "Keep your wife to
yourself, and fear Allah." But you hid in yourself that which Allah will make manifest, you did
fear the people (i.e., their saying that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) married the
divorced wife of his manumitted slave) whereas Allah had a better right that you should fear
Him. So when Zayd had accomplished his desire from her (i.e. divorced her), We gave her to you
in marriage, so that there may be no difficulty to the believers in respect of (the marriage of) the
wives of their adopted sons when the latter have no desire to keep them. And Allah's Command
must be fulfilled."
