THE THREE WHOM ALLAH WILL NEITHER LOOK AT OR SPEAK TO ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT

1630

“There are three to whom Allah will not speak on the Day of Judgement, nor will He look at them or purify them. He repeated this three times. Abu Dharr said, ‘They are lost and ruined! Who are they, O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him?’ He replied: ‘One who lengthens his garments because of pride, one who boasts of favors done to another and one who promotes the sale of his wares with a false oath.’"

Muslim with a chain up to Abu Dharr who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

USURY

Allah, the Exalted says:

“Those who eat usury shall not rise up (from the tomb)

except as he who rises in madness that satan has touched.

That is because they say,

‘Selling is like usury.'

Allah has permitted trading and forbidden usury.

To whomsoever an exhortation comes

from his Lord then he desists,

he shall have his past gains,

and his matter is with Allah.

But whoever reverts shall be

among the people of the Fire

and shall remain in it forever.

Allah effaces usury and nurtures charity.

Allah does not love every ungrateful sinner.

Those who believe and do good works,

establish the prayers

and pay the obligatory charity,

will be rewarded by their Lord

and will have nothing to fear or to regret.

‘Believers, fear Allah

and give up what is still due to you from usury,

if you are believers; but if you do not,

then take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger.

Yet if you repent,

you shall have the principal of your wealth.

Neither will you harm nor will you be harmed. 2:278 – 279 Koran
