Question:
As Salaamu Alaykum Ya Sayyidi! Ya Mawlana Shaykh Hisham(Q)
My family do not seem to believe in Creation. We often have discussions regarding Religious matters, God, and creation. Mawlana Shaykh, I would really appreciate your input on how to handle these discussions.I get emotional. How do i handle myself?
May Allah(swt) raise your stations higher and higher! Ameen!!!
Much Love to Beloved Hajjah Nazihe and All!
Answer:
Wa`alaykumussalam
I’m not so sure what you mean by your family not “to believe in
Creation,” but having discussions over those matters. Nevertheless,
lead them to find out about themselves and all that are apparent in
the entire universe. Share with them the immense love of God and His
Messenger (s.a.w.)
It is pointless to go into a discussion where a party gets emotional.
It is better that one stays silent and keeps to his dhikr.
