Stung Twice?


Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “A believer does not
allow himself to be stung twice from one (and the same)
hole.” [Bukhari]

A Muslim is required to learn from his or her mistakes, analyze their
failures and if there is any shortcoming that he can avoid repeating,
then he or she is required to avoid it. Once an individual or group
has shown evil behaviour towards us, we are not to become victims
again. It is not only our personal experience that we are required to
learn from, but the experience of the Muslim Ummah and the guidance
that we receive from Allah (subhana wa ta'ala) in recognizing our
friends and foes. Nobody knows better than Allah what is in a
creatures heart: therefore, a sensible person will avoid harm by
paying heed to the advice from the All Knower, Allah (subhana wa
ta'ala).
