Esteemed Islamic scholar Ml Ebrahim Bham says being surrounded by despair, negativity and despondency is not the temperament of Islam.

Ml Bham was sharing some advices during his cultivating hope through a positive mindset series.

The series focuses on maintaining a positive mind despite being surrounded by a negative outlook.

Ml Bham says shaytaan looks for the negativity that envelopes people.

“Our Ulama have told us that the word ‘iblees and shaytaan’, the word iblees, one of the root words is ba’las. Ba’las means despair and despondency and nothing gives iblees greater joy to see people in despair and despondency because that is something that prevent him from making spiritual progress.”

Ml Bham says Allah mentions in the Qur’an that people should never lose hope in Him.

“Allah will forgive all types of sins.”

Ml Bham says Allah has given a number of guidelines in the Qur’an not become despondent and disappointed concerning worldly challenges and in pursuit of our objectives.
