Beneficial Gift

الهدية النافعة

عادة كثير من الناس إن قيل له "ألا أهدي لك هدية" ينظر إلى يد المتحدث هل يحمل شيئًا؟ أوينتظر أن يدخل يده في جيبه، ويُغفل عن نوع من التهادي يعد أشرف أنواع التهادي وأحسنه وأجمله؛ ألا وهو تهادي مسائل العلم ، ولا يعرف قدر هذه الهدية إلا من عرف قدر العلم. قال ابن القيم : ((وإنما الهدية النافعة كلمة يهديها الرجل الى أخيه المسلم)).

Beneficial Gift

Usually, many people if it is said to him, "Shouldn't I give you a gift," looks at the hand of the speaker, is he carrying something? or waits for him to enter his hand in his pocket, and he forgets about a kind of the gift considered from the most honorable type of gift, best of it, and most beautiful of it: isn't it giving the gift of matters of knowledge, and no one knows the status of this gift except one who knows the status of knowledge.

Ibnul Quyyem said: Indeed, the beneficial gift is a word that a man gifts his Muslim brother.

Killing Time

قتل الوقت

يتضايق بعض الناس من الوقت ويعمل على تضييعه حتى في الحرام ، ولهذا تجد عند بعض الغافلين التعبير بكلمة «قتل الوقت» كأنه عدو!!، والوقت غنيمة وما ذهب منه لا يعود، والعاقل هو من يغتنم أوقاته ويحاذر من قتلها وتضييعها .

Killing Time

Some people are bothered by time such that they work to waste time even in doing what is forbidden. Therefore, you will find with some heedless people the expression with wording, "Killing Time," as if it is enemy. The time is booty (profit), and what leaves from it does not return, and the intellectual one is the one who takes advantage of his times and takes care not to kill it or waste it.
