Advice for the young men who go out to the open desert
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This person says: With these rains and blessings that Allah the Exalted has provided for us, which are sufficient, people go out from the city. And some of the young men do things like going to the mosques and listening to songs and other forms of evil. Rather, they need a word of guidance.
Answer:
We advise these young men, may Allah rectify them, grant them success, and guide them, to be grateful for the blessing of Allah the Mighty and Majestic, and to maintain obedience to Him wherever they are, whether in the open desert or in the city, for Allah is watching over them in any place,Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1987Hasan (Darussalam).
We also advise them to maintain the obligatory acts and to pray the prayers in their times in congregation. We advise them to avoid foolishness and heedlessness regarding the remembrance of Allah, or being lax about prayer, for these are harms that they will return to their city having been affected by, and it will affect them. They may even become accustomed to them and look forward to them, because Satan encourages them in them. They may also increase their outings for this purpose, because the soul is a commander of evil. So they must be cautious and hold fast to their religion, for they are Muslims, young Muslims, and the sons of Muslims. Whether they are in the city or in the open desert, they must maintain their religion, their morals, and the obligations of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He.
