َ320 Backbiting – A Cancer in our SocietyJoint pains went away & found a job tooIn order to rid yourself from the habit of hearing backbiting and to develop a habit ofoffering Ṣalāĥ and practicing the Sunnaĥ, keep yourself attached to the righteous Madanīenvironment of Dawat-e-Islami and travel in the Madanī Qāfilaĥ with the devotees ofthe Prophet to learn the Sunan of the Holy Prophet. Let me tell you the summary of aMadanī parable of travelling with the Madanī Qāfilaĥ, which an Islamic brother relayedto me. He narrated: I was unemployed and was also suffering from chronic joint pain. Iwas frustrated by the worries of my limited resources and bothersome joint pain. I triedto get some medical advice but was getting nowhere.Inspired by an Islamic brother’s invitation, I set out with the devotees of the Prophet in aMadanī Qāfilaĥ to learn the Sunnaĥ. By the blessings of the Sunnaĥ-inspiring travel withthe Madanī Qāfilaĥ and the affectionate company of the devotees of the Prophet my longtermjoint pain completely subsided. The very next day after returning from the MadanīQāfilaĥ, I met an Islamic brother who found a job for me. All that happened by the graceof Allah ‏!عَزَّوَجَلَّ‏ At the time of relaying this parable of travelling with Madanī Qāfilaĥ, oneyear has passed and I still have my job and the pain has not yet returned.Joř joř āp kay, ĥaun agar dukĥ raĥayKar kay ĥimmat chalayn, Qāfilay mayn chaloTangdastī miṫay, rizq sutĥrā milayDar karam kay kĥulayn, Qāfilay mayn chaloIf your joints ache and keep you awakeA step let us take, let’s go with QāfilaĥDestitution may go away; receive clean payMay the doors of grace open, let’s go with QāfilaĥY َ ُa ٰ َ< ٰ Mََُ ا‎J K َ Lۡ2ِbَ َ اZ‏ۡ‏]^ ۡ ا < َLGive your deceased a good neighbourDear Islamic brothers!
