The first part of our commentary on the sixth hadith of Imam an-Nawawi's collection. The halal is clear and the haraam is clear, but what about the ambiguous matters in the middle? What is the difference between being careful and falling prey to Satanic whisperings?
This episode deals with story of Qabeel and Habeel (Cain and Abel) as related in the Qur'an, which is essentially the story of the first murder in human history and what motivated it, which was jealousy and hatred. Instead of bearing hatred and jealousy towards those who are better off than us, we should look at our own selves and seek improvement and betterment therein, and with the Lord is every success.
