Q 3:
What is meant by 'holding secret counsels for iniquity and hostility'?
Please, support your answer with mentioning an example.
A:
'Holding secret counsel for iniquity and hostility' is when two people or more secretly speak in matters that have to do with showing disobedience to Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him) in a way that may involve harm and malice toward Muslims. These are the attributes of hypocrites and the Jews who are the enemies of the believers, and that is why Allah (Glorified be He) ordered His Servants to do the opposite of such malicious attributes by conversing for righteousness, piety, doing all that is good, avoiding all that is bad and keenness of Muslims on benefiting one another and warding off any harm they might face, for Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says in Surah Al-Mujadalah:
O you who believe! When you hold secret counsel, do it not for sin and wrong-doing, and disobedience towards the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), but do it for Al-Birr (righteousness) and Taqwâ (virtues and piety); and fear Allâh unto Whom you shall be gathered.
Secret counsels (conspiracies) are only from Shaitân (Satan), in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as Allâh permits. And in Allâh let the believers put their trust.
