The Meaning of the Hadith: The World Is Cursed Except for the Remembrance of Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The brother Abu 'Adil sent two questions about two noble hadiths, asking what their meanings are. The first hadith is:
The world is cursed, cursed, except for the remembrance of Allahالدنيا ملعونة ملعونة إلا ذكر الله
?

Answer:
And what is its meaning? Yes. Yes. This is an authentic hadith. The meaning of "cursed" is "blameworthy." The intended meaning of "curse" here is blame. So, the world is blameworthy for the one who limits himself to it, occupies himself with it, and forgets the Hereafter. Yes.
