EVERYTHING IS CREATED WITH WISDOM
There is a holy saying. I’m not sure exactly if it is ḥadīth or a saying of righteous people. Because we must mention from whom the ḥadīth sharīf is narrated. “كُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ”, “Kullun muyassarun limā khuliqa lah”, “Each person is facilitated for what he has been created.” It is a holy saying. There is wisdom in everything Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla creates. And everything has its duty accordingly. They must carry out and complete their duties. Certainly, that duty is by the will of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Therefore, most Awliya don’t ask about its wisdom. How is this? Why does it happen this way? Is it good? Or is it bad? They know everything from Allāh ﷻ and try to look at it from the perspective of wisdom. If they don’t know the wisdom, they say Allāh ﷻ knows its wisdom and don’t interfere.
The current situation in the world is that there is oppression and evil everywhere. There are many people who are not good. And more than not good, there are bad people. Everything is created with wisdom, as we said. The wisdom is in the sight of Allāh ﷻ. Both the good and the bad are given as a test. There are some things that people don’t approve of, because they are things done against Allāh ﷻ. When badness is done towards people with īmān, against Muslims, or against any person or animal, Muslims don’t approve that, of course. They don’t want that. But there is wisdom in some things for the creatures. And there are things without wisdom. Allāh ﷻ knows all the wisdom of that. We can’t interfere in it.
It is the condition of this world. You must accept the good things. And you may change what is not good if you are capable of it. If you are not, you must at least say in your heart that you don’t accept it. This is important for common people and for people of ṭarīqah. It is important for people who say they are Muslim. Because if they know this, they will be from the accepted people in the presence of Allāh ﷻ. If they don’t know and reject this, if they object by saying “What is this?”, they will be at loss then. They will lose their Thawab, because there is a lot of badness in this world for people. Speaking about them without knowing their wisdom is sometimes good and sometimes not good. Most of the time it is not good.
Therefore, what mankind sees as good is sometimes bad. And what they think as bad is good. That is also the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Allāh ﷻ knows their wisdom. People who are believers must strive as much as they can to either abstain from doing that, or stay away from these things, this fitnah, this worldly situation and badness. They must not be involved with them. As Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim used to say, in the end of times people who stay at home are safe in shā’a Llāh. May Allāh ﷻ protect us.
As we said, there are various things with wisdom. You must not say, “Why did Allāh ﷻ create this?” Allāh ﷻ created with wisdom. You can’t interfere in the business of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Everything has its system and balance. Everything must happen. Something must happen. The bad must happen. And the good must happen. At some times, the bad will happen more. It will be over and then goodness will come in its place. This is the system and balance of Allāh ﷻ. If you don’t interfere in it, it is better for you. As we said, regarding most things people think the bad is good without knowing, and think the good is bad. May Allāh ﷻ protect us. May Allāh ﷻ change our situation for the better insha’Allah. Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
