The Escalating Thoughtlessness of One’s Eyes, Ears and Hearts




[Surah Al-‘A’raf Ch:7 V:179]

  لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لَّا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لَّا يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ آذَانٌ لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا

“They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear.

[Surah Al-'An'am Ch:6 V:25]

 وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ ۖ وَجَعَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفْقَهُوهُ وَفِي آذَانِهِمْ وَقْرًا ۚ وَإِن
 
يَرَوْا كُلَّ آيَةٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوا بِهَا ۚ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا جَاءُوكَ يُجَادِلُونَكَ يَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا
 
أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِي

"And of them there are some who listen to you; but We have set veils on their hearts, so they understand it not, and deafness in their ears; if they see every one of the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) they will not believe therein; to the point that when they come to you to argue with you, the disbelievers say: "These are nothing but tales of the men of old."

[Surah Al-Baqarah Ch:2 V:7]

 خَتَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَعَلَىٰ سَمْعِهِمْ ۖ وَعَلَىٰ أَبْصَارِهِمْ غِشَاوَةٌ ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

"Allah has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearings, (i.e. they are closed from accepting Allah's Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment."
[Surah Al-Fussilat Ch:41 V:5]

 وَقَالُوا قُلُوبُنَا فِي أَكِنَّةٍ مِّمَّا تَدْعُونَا إِلَيْهِ وَفِي آذَانِنَا وَقْرٌ وَمِن بَيْنِنَا وَبَيْنِكَ حِجَابٌ فَاعْمَلْ
 
إِنَّنَا عَامِلُونَ

"And they say: "Our hearts are under coverings (screened) from that to which you invite us, and in our ears is deafness, and between us and you is a screen, so work you (on your way); verily, we are working (on our way)."


Message to All:
My Muslim brothers why do we not follow the footsteps of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (may peace & blessings of Allah be upon him)?. Why do we not live our life as prescribed by him? Why do we argue over religion? Why don't we realize that this world is nothing but a mere test for us?, Why do we have to insult the person who tries to talk us into religion? Why do we indulge ourselves in wasteful activities that were disliked by our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace & Blessings of Allah be upon Him)?

It's high time! and the end of time is very near open your eyes and look around you, open your ears and listen to the right word, open your heart and understand everything, Don't fall into the trap set by 'Satan'

Repent Towards your Lord, seek forgiveness, Cry out to him ' O Allah ' & Surely He will answer you and forgive you.

May Allah (s.w.t) enable us to follow the right path by His Grace Ameen!
