Some Characteristics And Favours Bestowed On a Blessed Person

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Allaah [The Most High] stated that Isa [alayhis-salaam] said:

وَجَعَلَنِي مُبَارَكًا أَيْنَ مَا كُنتُ

“And He [i.e. Allaah] has made me [i.e. Isa] blessed wheresoever I be…”

[Soorah Maryam Ayah: 31]

A person cannot be blessed wheresoever he is, except when he is righteous and rectifying affairs in all his gatherings, and neither evil nor corruption is (present) in that. Good words, good speech, fine admonition and beneficial affairs are heard from him in every gathering of his. Imaam Ibnul Qayyim [rahimahullaah] said, “A person cannot be blessed wheresoever he is, except when he is of benefit to the people in every sitting of his with the people. This also applies to the person being blessed in his wealth, his provisions, his actions, his household, his state of affairs and happiness”.
