Chapter: The obligation to preserve life and avoid what is thought to cause its destruction
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 6480 — The obligation to preserve life and avoid
عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يُذِلَّ نَفْسَهُ قِيلَ وَكَيْفَ يُذِلُّ نَفْسَهُ قَالَ يَتَعَرَّضُ مِنَ الْبَلَاءِ لِمَا لَا يُطِيقُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is not befitting for any Muslim to humiliate himself. Someone asked: How does a person humiliate himself? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: He exposes himself to such calamities and trials which he cannot bear.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … A Muslim should always ask for well-being (‘afiyah) and should protect himself from spiritual and physical trials and from places of destruction.
