I wish them endless happiness

I wish them endless happiness

One of the greatest sufis Abraham Al Atrush reported…

We were out sailing with Mentor Maruf Al Kerhi on the Tigris River. We saw a group, who were on a boat, singing, drinking alcohol and having fun. They passed next to us and we said to Maruf:

“What a shame, look! I’m sure they do not think about Allah even for a second, they are all rebels! Don’t hesitate to say some bad prayers for them!” Maruf prayed:

“My great Allah, that group seem very happy here in this world, I hope they will have the same happiness in the other world too…”

We were all shocked and said:

“But, why! We asked ‘bad prayers’ not good wishes!” Maruf gave a final answer:

“If Allah decides to send them to heaven, Allah will show them the right way, and then they may regret and they can be a people as you wish!”
