The Day We Took Our Masks Off

The day we took our masks off wasn’t a day, exactly. The plague receded slowly, like a winter that had held on too long, sputtering false springs and flash snows until one day we looked out the window and saw the sun shining again.

We each resurfaced in our own time, some so starved for contact they were out as soon as the medical cordons came down. Others waited to check the math of the economists ushering us back to work. A few held on for weeks, like shelter animals wary of the cage’s open door.

Whenever it happened, there was a moment we all shared: when the mask dropped and we saw our smiles naked again, hardened by time and stress but still gleaming like a vein of precious ore that only forms under pressure.

There was still work to do, yes. There were dead to mourn, sick to tend to, and losses too raw to speak of. But for a moment, we felt the weight of our long isolation melting away like snow in sunlight. We thought back to ourselves at the beginning of this calamity, before we lost count of the anxious nights and lonely days. And we whispered into reality what we had been too afraid to say back then.

That all winters end. All masks come off. And we will see each other again before too long.

قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُ عَلَىٰ بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّي وَرَزَقَنِي مِنْهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا ۚ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُخَالِفَكُمْ إِلَىٰ مَا أَنْهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ ۚ إِنْ أُرِيدُ إِلَّا الْإِصْلَاحَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ ۚ وَمَا تَوْفِيقِي إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ۚ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيبُ

He said: “O my people, think. I have a clear sign from my Lord, who has also given me a goodly provision, and I do not wish for myself what I forbid you: I only wish to reform you as best I can. My success is from Allah alone. In Him I have placed my trust, and to Him I turn.

انہوں نے کہا کہ اے قوم! دیکھو تو اگر میں اپنے پروردگار کی طرف سے دلیل روشن پر ہوں اور اس نے اپنے ہاں سے مجھے نیک روزی دی ہو (تو کیا میں ان کے خلاف کروں گا؟) اور میں نہیں چاہتا کہ جس امر سے میں تمہیں منع کروں خود اس کو کرنے لگوں۔ میں تو جہاں تک مجھ سے ہوسکے (تمہارے معاملات کی) اصلاح چاہتا ہوں اور (اس بارے میں) مجھے توفیق کا ملنا خدا ہی (کے فضل) سے ہے۔ میں اسی پر بھروسہ رکھتا ہوں اور اس کی طرف رجوع کرتا ہوں

Shaitaan knocks and steps inside your heart using your individual Weakness

Part 1 We are aware that shaitaan gradually misguides mankind through waswas . But he does not use the same approach for everyone. People differ in their nature, personality and ways of thinking; what appeals to one, may not appeal to another. So shaitaan may seek to conquer someone by exploiting his love for money, while he may subdue another by his lust for fame, or might delude another by emotion. Shaitaan has different ways to enter a man’s soul and misguide it; these doorways to a person’s heart are referred to as, ‘weakness.’ To be Continued إن شاء الله

Shaitaan knocks and steps inside your heart using your individual Weakness

Part 2 “The Shaitaan flows through the son of Adam like blood, until it is as if he becomes part of him, so he (shaitaan) finds out what he (a person) likes and prefers; once he knows that, he uses it against a person and enters into him through this door. He also passes this information on to his brothers and allies among mankind, so that when they want to achieve their nefarious aims against one another they do so through means of that which people love and desire. Whoever tries to enter through this door will gain entry, and whoever tries to enter through any other way will find that the door is barred to him and he will not get what he wants.” It is thus not the way of Shaitaan to openly call one to disobedience. He will encourage negligence in prayers by whispering to the person to complete his worldly work before he leaves for prayers. After he has completed his work, Shaitaan will remind him of food, and after that he will remind him of something else until the time of prayer has perished .

Shaitaan knocks and steps inside your heart using your individual Weakness

Part 3 Using Was’was , Shaytan makes a Muslim realize that he is helpless Shaitaan plays a very wise game. He whispers a spark of doubt in your mind and then slowly keeps inflaming it. For example : He shall cast a doubt in your heart that ” Allah is not listening to Your Dua’s” . Now what he does is that , he slowly instigates that doubt and turns it into a raging flame by reminding you of certain times when you asked for something from Allah Ta’ala but you never received it ; Moreover he inflates the happiness and achievements of your friends , relatives and other people in your eyes so much so that you start to become a little aggrieved from Allah Ta’ala – Shaitaan whispers that Allah tala’ treats you like a mother treats a stepchild so as to create a wedge between your connection with Allah Ta’ala .

Part 5

Imam Ibn Katheer explained, “What is meant by seizing his forelock is defeating him and overwhelming him, as one does with a camel when it runs away, then you seize it and overpower it.” [alBidayah wan-Nihayah (1/73)]

Shaitaan’ usually casts Doubts / Waswas once he has failed at his bigger attempts to mislead you

If after employing all kinds of temptations and deceptive arguments, Shaitaan still does not succeed in diverting the son of Adam from his religious commitments, he resorts to corrupt his acts of worship and deprive him from the rewards. He stirs up doubts and makes the person anxious and uncertain.

In Sahih al Bukhari, it is narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allah said Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam:

“When the call to prayer is pronounced, the Shaitaan runs away breaking wind loudly, so that he will not hear the adhaan. When the call to prayer ends, he comes back, but when the iqaamah starts, he runs away. And when the prayer begins, he comes back until he whispers into the heart of the person, and says to him, ‘Remember such and such, remember such and such – things that he did not remember before the prayer until he does not know how manyraka’ahs he has prayed.”[Sahih al-Bukhari (608)]
