The Story of Sluggard with Abu Hanifa

One day when Imam Abu Hanifa was walking through a house window was still open, he heard the voices of people who complain and cry. Complaints contain adequate words, "Oh, what a misfortune this my fate, apparently no one was more unfortunate than this wretched fate that. Since the morning again is yet to come mouthful of rice or any food in my throat and all of my body became weak. Oh, Where heart of compassion that people wanted to give even a drop of water flow. "

Hearing the complaint, Abu Hanifa and he also felt sorry back to his house and took the parcel would be given to that person. When he reached the house of the man, he continues to throw the parcel containing the money to the poor was then continued on his way. At that time, the poor feel surprised after find a package that is not known where it came from, then he hurried to open it. Once opened, it is obvious that the package contained money and a piece of paper inscribed, "Hey man, really not fair so that you complain, you never need to complain or benefited from your fate. Remember to try the mercies of God and ask Him earnestly. Do not like despair, O my friend, but keep trying. "

On the next day, Imam Abu Hanifah through the house again and a voice that sounds more complaints, "Oh Lord God Almighty and Merciful Poor Twelve, so good as to give another package like yesterday, just for fun my life is this poor. Indeed, if God did not give , will be more miserable my life, my lucky fate. "
Heard complaints that again, it was Abu Hanifa then threw another package containing money and a piece of paper from outside the window, so he will continue his journey. The man was so cheerful after receiving the package. Then keep it open.

As before, in the package is still there a piece of paper and then read, "Hey buddy, it's not that I beg, not so I will seek and seek. The act so 'lazy' name. Desperate to truth and power of God. It's not God's pleasure see people lazy and desperate, reluctant to work for the salvation itself. Do .... Do not do that. Want to have fun like at work and tried because of the pleasure it could not have come alone without looking or commercialized. People live not need or were told to sit still but must work and business. God will not allow the application of people who are lazy to work. God will not grant the prayer of those who despair. So, look for a halal job to pleasure yourself. Try as much as possible with the help of Allah. Insha Allah, will be able to also work as long as you do not despair. Well ... look for a job soon, I pray for quick success. "

As good as he finished reading the letter, he mused, he was aware and conscious of the laziness that so far he does not like to seek and try.
On the next day, he came out of his house to find a job. Since the day, his attitude was changed to follow the rules of life (Sunna of God) and not forgetting the advice of people who give that advice.
In Islam there is no term unemployment, the term is only used by people who have sense narrow. Islam teaches us to advance to the front and not teach us hang out at the curb.
