AVOID SUSPICION -AS IN SOME CASES IT IS A SIN
for everyone |
If the Islamic society, rather a human society adopts the Islamic laws and programmes, one of which is having good opinion, many disputes, rumours, hasty and undue decisions, doubtful news, falsities … all of which rise from misgivings may be wiped out. Otherwise, the society will continue to suffer chaos and no one will be safe from others misgiving and all will be restless.
1 – O you who believe! Avoid most of the suspicion, for surely suspicion in some cases is a sIn, and do not spy…
2 – And follow not that of which you have not the knowledge; surely the hearing and the sight and the heart, all of these, shall be questioned about that.
3 – And most of them do not follow anything but conjecture; surely conjecture will not avail author against the truth…
Amirul Mo-mineen (a.s.) said: Have a good opinion about whatever is done by your brother-in-Faith and do not entertain misgiving in his word until you get a good place and carrier for him.
The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: Try to find a good excuse and cause for any of your brothers’ deeds. If you cannot find try again.
Amirul Mo-mineen (a.s.) said: O People! The one who sees tranquillity, steadfastness in religion and correct behaviour in his brother-in-Faith must not listen to talks spoken against him. Beware sometimes firing misses its target conjecture is not reality. A false word will eventually be rejected even if repeated increasingly because God is All-hearing and All-knowing. Also know that the distance between true and false is not more than four fingers. Then he placed his four fingers between his eye and ear and said: It is false when you say I heard and it is true when you say I saw.
In conclusion it can be said that consequences of conjecture means:
1 – Conjecture is a calamity that endangers the honour of the honourable and the servants of the society and the religion.
2 – Misgiving makes the market of rumourmongers flourish.
3 – Conjecture causes destruction of friendly and warn relations within family and market and office and workshop and everywhere and at all times.
4 – Suspicion encroaches upon the rights of the members of a society.
5 – Unfavourable guessing results in spying upon people’s lives.
This deadly disease can be remedied in two ways:
1 – First man must recognise the disease and always keep in mind its evil effects.
2 – He should try all must endeavour so that the noble Islamic culture rules over him and the society so that we remember that Allah is always watching and protecting us and that He is Omniscient, Allah-seeing and All-knowing; that He is aware of even our thoughts and imaginations: He knows the stealthy looks and that which the breasts conceal.
Then it must be realised that every spoken word and every taken step is being recorded and that it will have to be accounted for in the supreme court of Allah and that the Day will come when all of us will have to answer for all of our misplaced deeds and decisions and imaginations before Allah.
Ali (a.s.) says: When honesty and goodness is well spread in the society, it is oppression unjust to have a bad opinion about a person whose defects are not obvious. Of course when evil and immorality and corruption overtakes a society, having good opinion about one can prove deceptive.
B – Husn-e-Zann does not encircle un-Islamic militiamen or un-Islamic organisations because their designs and their foundations for working are based on secret and underground and they work for the destruction of Islam and Muslims.
B – One must keep distance from excessive favourable opinion, especially in money matters and in affairs that are in dispute among people because sometimes it can cause allegation and false accusation. In this connection Imam Sajjad (a.s.) has said: Excessive favourable opinion attracts allegation.
C – What is meant by conjecture is baseless belief and decision and it does not include tendency of heart or inclination of mind and hence it is not a doubt.

The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: Keep away from conjecture as conjecture is the worst lie Somebody asked Amirul Mo-mineen (a.s.); What is the distance between truth and falsehood. He replied placing his four hand fingers between his eye and ear: Whatever your eye saw is true and most of what you ear heard is untrue. Wash whatever you hear like water and do not speak what you have not seen, that is, be like a mirror.
