Hadith of the day.

The prophet would never find fault with food. If he desired it, he would eat.
If he dislike it, he would leave it.

(Bukhari and Muslim)

Qabeel and Habeel Story

Last time we spoke about how the seitan succeeded to convince Adam and Hawa to eat from the tree Allah warned them from and how they asked Allah for forgiveness but were expelled from Jannah to live on earth with the seitan.
Now it’s a war between Adam, Hawa and the seitan till our lives are over, it's like a huge competition, the condition for this competition in order to win are to follow Allah's rules and never listen to the seitan. We should do the right thing even if we are the only ones doing it and never do the wrong things even if all people are doing it, this competition will end up when we die and meet Allah on the judgement day, Allah will face us with all the sins and even with the good deeds we did in our lives.
Now the earth is empty, no one is there except for Adam and Hawaa, no other humans were there. So Adam and Hawaa had to have children to fill the earth with the human race. Each time Hawaa got pregnant she had a twin, a boy and a girl. When they grew up, each twin wasn’t allowed to marry each other, but was allowed to marry any other brother or sister, Because in those days there weren't enough people to get married from, but later on Allah forbid brothers to marry sisters.
One of Adam's sons named Qabeel fought with his brother Habeel, so they decided to present Allah a sacrifice and the one whose sacrifice would be the right one in this case.
Note: those days it was possible to present Allah a sacrifice, by placing it on a top of a mountain and if Allah accepted it, he sends fire from the heaven to burn the present, if not it remains as it is, but nowadays this things don’t exist anymore.
Qabeel was a farmer, he had lots of nice plants and trees, but he choose the worst plants he had to sacrifice with.
On the other hand Habeel was a shepherd, he had lots of sheep, he chose the best sheep he had to sacrifice with.
Both placed their sacrifice on a top of a mountain, then suddenly the fire came from sky to burn Habeel's present! As a result Qabeel got more mad and furious, the amount of hatred in his heart grew even bigger, he told his brother: "I will kill you".
Habeel was patient and tolerant, he replied saying:" Bro, if you stretched your arms to kill me, I'm not going to harm you back, but you will go to hell. And I will go to Jannah."
Despite everything, Qabeel insisted on killing his brother, he couldn’t control his envy, hiss dark feelings led him to the murder of his brother!! And he became the first murder on the Earth so anyone would murder someone, Qabeel would take a share from the sin, because he was the first one to begin with killing.
And if you did good things and made good deeds and someone saw you and did like you, you will have a reward just like him.
After the murder, Qabeel was full of regret and sorrow, he didn’t know what to do. So Allah sent a raven to scratch the ground and burry something to teach Qabeel how to deal with the problem, so Qabeel buried Habeel and thus became the first murder on Earth.
So the seitan succeeded again in making Qabeel kill his own brother!.
