Do Not Be a Sycophant !

Assalamualaikum readers! I would like to share something, regarding..sycophants!

Sycophant? what does that mean?

It is defined as a person who overly flatters someone in authority for personal gain. Yeah, more like a self-seeker. They will try everything in their possession to please someone for their own personal benefit. 

Don't assume the personality of someone else or argue and speak in defense of others, it is perpetual affliction; a never ending pain.

Many of those who forget themselves, their voice, their movements, their conditions to fuse into the personality of others. So, it will lead to beseeching others and destitution of essence and self-importance.

Keep in mind that no two persons match a single form, so why will they be the same in endowments and conduct? You are something else, your kind has never been had in history and your kind will never come to the world. Thus, do not ram yourself into the vault of blind following, imitation and dissolution (to fit in into people's personality)

Allah says in the Quran:

"For every nation there's a direction to which they face." (Al-Baqarah: 148)

So, live as you are created. Do not change your voice, do not alter your accent or such. Rectify yourself with the revelation: the Quran and the Sunnah as explained by the pious predecessors rather than destroying yourself by trying to be like others.

You have a distinct taste and color and the world needs you with this color and taste because you were created like that; and thus people will know you like that. So, no one should be a sycophant!

A reminder, the variation in our colors, tongues, endowments and abilities are from the signs of Allah the Almighty and sublime. So, do not ever deny His signs!  ^_^
