Incident of forgiveness
Submitted by Mohammed Gilani on
Once Nabi Eesa (Alayhis salaam) was passing a grave and he saw the inmate of the grave was being
punished. After a few days he passed that way again and found that the punishment
had been lifted from the inmate of the grave and he was in peace. He enquired from
Allah Ta'ala thus,
“O Generous Master, through which action of this servant did you remove his
punishment?”
Allah Ta'ala replied,
“O Eesa, at the time of his death he had a child. When this child grew up, his mother
took him to Madrasah and he recited Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem in the presence of
the Ustaad. It is against My status that the child calls Rahmaan and Raheem in this
world and I should punish his father. That is why I have lifted his punishment.”
(Virtues of Bismillah page15)
From here we can gauge and understand the great virtue of imparting Deeni knowledge to our children.
