Virtuous action....

From a 4 page expert of Hamza Yusuf's unpublished book called "Walk on Water":


According to Ahmad, Jesus (allahi-salam) was known
to have said, “Virtuous action does not
consist in doing good to someone who
has done good to you—that is merely
returning a favor. Virtuous action consists
in doing good to those who have wronged
you.”

Alhamdulillah! The heart of truth and virtue is in these words.

Wa alaykum as-salaam

I hope that you get to attend RIS this year though insha-Allah, it's an experience unlike any other! Hmmm, I have also heard that Knowledge Retreats are much more knowledgeable and fun. And it makes sense as students get to spend more time with the scholars and there's much more to learn etc. I haven't been to those Knowledge Retreats yet, but insha-Allah, I hope I attend this year.

Thanks for dropping by, and you have an interesting blog yourself!

Wassalam
