TextSalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah;
As a reminder to myself & others;
again many Muslims give advice in the wrong direction at times and we all could use the advice and reminder:
"Jabir [radiyyallahu anhu] reported that Rasulullah [sallallahu alaihi wa salam] said: Iblis places his throne upon water; he then sends detachments [for creating dissension]; the nearer to him in rank are those who are most notorious in creating dissension. One of them comes and says: I did so and so. And he [Iblis] says you have done nothing. Then one amongst them comes and says; I did so and so. And he says: you have done nothing. Then one of them comes and says; I did not spare so and so until I sowed the seed of discord between a husband and wife. THE SATAN GOES NEAR HIM AND SAYS: YOU HAVE DONE WELL. A'mash [radiyyallahu anhu] said: he then embraces him." [Muslim transmitted]
