The Addiction That Leads You To Hellfire

Bismillah,

Peace be upon all of you,

I bear witness that Allah alone is worthy of worship and Muhammad peace be upon him is His prophet.

I will explicitly list to you the addiction that is dangerous plus haram and a destroyer to humankind that I observed and have knowledge about:

1. Zina (adultery) and things are related to it;

- watching porn,
- dating,
- conversation on phone, text and etc without valid reason

2. Smoking

-cigarette
-weed

3. Drugs (to much to be listed)
4. Gambling
5. Back biting, slander, gossip


Allah s.w.t. said:

Bala man kasaba sayyiatan waahatat bihi khateeatuhu faolaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona 2:81

Dr Mohsin translation
Yes! Whosoever earns evil and his sin has surrounded him, they are dwellers of the Fire (i.e. Hell); they will dwell therein forever. (81)

Malay translation
(Apa yang kamu katakan itu tidaklah benar), sesungguhnya sesiapa yang berbuat kejahatan dan dia diliputi (ditenggelamkan) oleh kesalahannya itu, maka merekalah ahli Neraka, mereka kekal di dalamnya. (81)

Notice! the Arabic word sayyiatan is a singular noun which means a sin. You should understand from reading the translation that if you do one sin. Just one sin but you did it again and again you will enter to hell fire. Why? Allah explained it in these next ayahs:

Araayta mani ittakhatha ilahahu hawahu afaanta takoonu AAalayhi wakeelan 25:43

Dr Mohsin translation
Have you (O Muhammad SAW) seen him who has taken as his ilâh (god) his own vain desire? Would you then be a Wakîl (a disposer of his affairs or a watcher) over him? (43)

Malay translation
Nampakkah (wahai Muhammad) keburukan keadaan orang yang menjadikan hawa nafsunya: Tuhan yang dipuja lagi ditaati? Maka dapatkah engkau menjadi pengawas yang menjaganya jangan sesat? (43)

Afaraayta mani ittakhatha ilahahu hawahu waadallahu Allahu AAala AAilmin wakhatama AAala samAAihi waqalbihi wajaAAala AAala basarihi ghishawatan faman yahdeehi min baAAdi Allahi afala tathakkaroona 45:23

Dr Mohsin translation
Have you seen him who takes his own lust (vain desires) as his ilâh (god)? and Allâh knowing (him as such), left him astray, and sealed his hearing and his heart, and put a cover on his sight. Who then will guide him after Allâh? Will you not then remember? (23)

Malay translation
Dengan yang demikian, bagaimana fikiranmu (wahai Muhammad) terhadap orang yang menjadikan hawa nafsunya:

Tuhan yang dipatuhinya dan dia pula disesatkan oleh Allah kerana diketahuiNya (bahawa dia tetap kufur ingkar) dan dimeteraikan pula atas pendengarannya dan hatinya serta diadakan lapisan penutup atas penglihatannya? Maka siapakah lagi yang dapat memberi hidayat petunjuk kepadanya sesudah Allah (menjadikan dia berkeadaan demikian)?

Oleh itu, mengapa kamu (wahai orang-orang yang ingkar) tidak ingat dan insaf? (23)

Now do you understand the significant of these ayah? Tauhid of Allah does not only mean to say La ilaaha illa Allah but to completely surrender and obey despite of strong desire or ego. You have to put your desire and ego down and bow down to Allah's decree and will.

Even for a person that prays, give out charity and accomplished the pilgrimage if he is trap in the addiction, then he is not only slave to Allah but also slave to his sin. You cannot be slave to Allah and sin at the same time. That is called syirk (partnering Allah). Don't take your sin as your God it is not worth it to enter hell forever.

Don't close your heart, eyes and ears when the ayah has been explained to you. Make repentance sincerely and Allah will accept your repentance. The only way you can get out this is with strong will. Really really strong will to become closer to God.

Allah is oft-forgiving and Merciful to his servant:

Qul ya AAibadiya allatheena asrafoo AAala anfusihim la taqnatoo min rahmati Allahi inna Allaha yaghfiru alththunooba jameeAAan innahu huwa alghafooru alrraheemu 39:53

Dr Mohsin translation
Say: "O 'Ibâdî (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allâh, verily Allâh forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful[] (53)

"And turn in repentance and in obedience with true Faith (Islâmic Monotheism) to your Lord and submit to Him, (in Islâm), before the torment comes upon you, (and) then you will not be helped. (54)

Malay translation
Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad): Wahai hamba-hambaKu yang telah melampaui batas terhadap diri mereka sendiri (dengan perbuatan-perbuatan maksiat), janganlah kamu berputus asa dari rahmat Allah, kerana sesungguhnya Allah mengampunkan segala dosa; sesungguhnya Dialah jua Yang Maha Pengampun, lagi Maha Mengasihani. (53)

Dan kembalilah kamu kepada Tuhan kamu dengan bertaubat, serta berserah bulat-bulat kepadaNya, sebelum kamu didatangi azab; kerana sesudah itu kamu tidak akan diberikan pertolongan. (54)

While we still given life lets turn to Allah and free ourselves from the slavery of sins to only be slave to Allah. For that is true freedom.
