Sadd E Zariya : But Where Does The Sin Start?
@UmerQureshi I understand your point sir. but I guess sir @Irfan76 has a little bit different opinion that if something is prohibited by Allah or His messenger on the grounds of Sadd e Zariya. then violating such directive would be Minor sin. because it’s a na farmani. but if something which is essentially halal (which is not directive of Allah or prophet to avoid it), even if it has some risk of leading to major Haram. Doing this thing won’t cause minor sin because there’s almost nothing in this world that doesn’t have a risk of leading to a sin. and it ultimately leads to Rehbaniyat. And if I mention the case of someone with skeptic OCD mind of fine detail analysis. He’ll see that the risk of falling into geebat, saying hurtful things to other person in every relation he has already built or he is about to build (friendship, marriage, relatives etc). he would start to increasing relations with them because increased relations means increased deeper interactions. which would make it very probable that maybe he’ll do a slight geebat or abuse to them. the risk of falling at least once or twice in such sin during the span of years of relations/meetings, is in fact high. This thing is evident in this fact, that any friend who is close to us in friendship, if we analyze our years of friendship (meetings, outings) we can easily find one incident of we either saying hurtful thing to them in anger or abuse. or we getting carried away in conversation in such a way that we do geebat of someone else. these risks are always high in every such relation. even if it’s like once or twice in the whole span of years of friendship so how will a person as I mentioned above navigate through his life? as he’ll see every act of making friendship deeper with any person (gift, going to their house, calling on phone) , as a minor sin. he won’t have any way left other than Rehbaniyat. how can we look into this matter sir?
