Pleasing People And Ayah 62 Of Surah Tawbah
@Irfan76 i mean i became confused after this ayah and after that article that what if this “act of pleasing someone” is only to be done for Allah only and no other just like things of worship. I mean worship cannot be done of anyone else even if someone worships Allah 23 hours a day and 1 minute worship of someone else, this is still condemnable. But can a true momin earn pleasure of others through permissible worldly things as well, to earn someone’s pleasure and love in heart? (And that pleasure of people sought by worldly deeds like giving a gift to someone, without doing it to seek Allah’s pleasure. I mean one thing is someone gives another person a gift so that when that person becomes happy, Allah will be happy with him. But other case is someone just giving a gift to someone to just please that person, just as a fıtratı action, simply to please the person, so that too would be fine?)
Of course, it is permissible, rather desirable to seek others’ pleasure by doing things that we do not do for Allah and religion. As told earlier, the expression is understood in its context. Whenever God’s pleasure is emphasized it is in the matters related to God.
@Irfan76 okay sir, sir can you please explain me a little about this ayah that is it talking about that specific situation of munafiq?
