The ruling on saying "Honoring the self is its desire" and "Blessing visited us"

Question:
There are common phrases, among which is their saying, "Honoring the self is its desire" and "Blessing visited us." What is your opinion, Honorable Shaykh, regarding such phrases?

Answer:
It is permissible. However, if the desire is for something forbidden, it is not honoring the self’s desire; rather, this is among the permissible things. If someone wants to leave and you say, "No, sit," and he says, "Honoring the self is its desire," meaning if he wants to leave, there is nothing wrong with it. But if it is for something forbidden, no, it is not honoring the self’s desire. So, if the desire contradicts the Shari'ah, it becomes, may Allah protect us, a god alongside Allah (Mighty and Majestic). As for permissible desire, a person loves to eat, loves to drink, loves to go out, loves to sleep; there is nothing wrong with that, honoring the self’s desire. As for "Blessing visited us," I do not know about this phrase; it is better to leave it, it is better to leave it, because this involves exalting the person or exaggerating about this person, unless it reaches the level of seeking blessing from the person. But we should attribute the Muslims to the correct interpretation. However, if this is a matter of seeking blessing from the person, you know, and a chapter will come regarding one who seeks blessing from a stone, a tree, or other things. Blessing does not come except from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
