It is mentioned that Muḥammad ibn Sīrīn said: “I mocked a man for something thirty years ago, and I think I was punished for it." They believed that he had mocked a man for his poverty, and so he was tested with it himself.” Al-Ḥāfiẓ al-Dhahabī (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in his book Siyar A‘lām al-Nubalā’: “The vizier Ibn al-Zayyāt said: ‘I never felt mercy for anyone; mercy is weakness in one’s nature.’ Then his circumstances changed, and he was imprisoned in a cage with iron spikes like needles. He would cry out: ‘Have mercy on me!’ and they would reply: ‘Mercy is weakness in one’s nature.’” Hanbali Server Link: https://discord.gg/afatSJEgEe Patreon (For Upcoming Exclusive Lectures): https://patreon.com/ZaynElAbideen Our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zaynalabideen38 Comments will be thoroughly ignored and deleted if they are arguments, claims, or debate baits, they will not be entertained or paid attention to, use our email for any such issues
