Hasan al-Basrī  (died 110H) was a great scholar of the first Islamic century and there is no dispute regarding his credentials and immense knowledge. Ibn Saʿd  relates:

“A group of Muslims came to al-Hasan al-Basrī seeking a verdict to rebel against al-Hajjāj [1] (a tyrannical and despotic general). So they said, “O Abu Saʿīd! What do you say about fighting this oppressor who has unlawfully spilt blood and unlawfully taken wealth and has done this and done that?” So al-Hasan said, “I hold that he should not be fought. If this is a punishment from Allāh, then you will not be able to remove it with your swords. If this is a trial from Allāh, then be patient until Allāh’s judgement comes, and He is the best of judges.” So they left al-Hasan, disagreed with him and rebelled against al-Hajjāj – so al-Hajjāj killed them all. Al-Hasan used to say, “If the people had patience when they are being tested by their unjust ruler, it will not be long before Allāh will give them a way out. However, they always rush for their swords, so they are left with their swords. By Allāh! Not even for a single day did they bring about any good.” [2]

[1] Hajjāj bin Yūsuf was responsible for widespread oppression and killing towards the end of the time of the Companions. He besieged Makkah and bombarded the Kaʿbah. He killed the Companion ʿAbdullāh bin Zubair and crucified him in Makkah. See as-Siyar of Adh-Dhahabī.

[2] Tabaqāt al-Kubrā (7/163-165)

being a 19 yo girl is *crying* *wanting to forgive mother* *fighting with her the very next moment* *fruits* *thinking about how school sucked for you* *thinking about how you lost your teen years to mental illness* *thinking* *wanting to claw out out of your body* *listening to a song on repeat and ending up somewhere else in your head* *thinking about motherhood in passing* *thinking if you'll find someone who'll love you* *thinking if that's necessary* *trying your best to be self sufficient* *crying in trial rooms and on trains* *walking* *not understanding* *missing the best friend you lost* *being scared* *questioning your existence* *fruits*

Couple months ago in college, my friends asked me if I wanted to hang out with them at this arcade place thing, and I said no im scared of covid so id rather avoid these places. This girl said that im being stupid and I should come cause im gonna die someday anyway so I should have some fun.

My granddad died from corona side effects like 2 months before she said that, a lot of my family members died because of covid. I was so so angry when she told me that.

Winter vacations came and every one of my college's students went out to have fun and enjoy the vacation, in fact a guy said he's unable to go out cause of covid and that same girl said the same thing making a joke out of it.

Her mom died today. They were in a severe accident and her mom died. They were out of the city spending their vacation.

I really pray shes doing okay, and I hope she understands how words effect people. And may Allah grant her mother a place in Jannah ameen.
