Make This a Way of Life
The shaikh, Dr. Muḥammad ibn Ghālib Al-ʿUmarī, may Allāh protect him, said:
[Consider] the ḥadīth “Tell [people] good things that will make them feel happy, and don’t drive them away”¹ and the ḥadīth “…and I like righteous, positive, encouraging words–good speech.”²
This is the default condition that a Muslim should be upon and that he should make [his] way of life:
- being optimistic;
- saying things that make people happy;
- choosing the most beautiful words;
- waiting for and expecting good things to happen
- [being] far away from pessimism;
- and negativity;
- and expecting bad [things to happen];
- and anticipating failure.

في الحديث (بشروا ولا تنفروا)
وفي الحديث (وَيُعْجِبُنِي الْفَأْلُ الصَّالِحُ؛ الْكَلِمَةُ الْحسَنَةُ)
هذا هو الأصل الذي ينبغي أن يكون عليه المسلم، وأنه يجعله منهج حياة
التفاؤل
والبشارة
واختيار أجمل الألفاظ
والتوقع بحصول الخيربعيدا عن التشاؤم
والسلبية
وتوقع الشر
وانتظار الفشل.— د.محمد بن غالب العُمري (@m_g_alomari) June 27, 2019
