Fear the tears of a person offended by you, because he will ask me for help, and I will help: the origin and meaning of the thesis.

The phrase “Fear the tears of a person offended by you, because he will ask me for help, and I will help” - received a huge response on social networks and millions of reposts. We decided to debunk the myth of the origin of the thesis, and found its origins, which we presented in this article.
“Fear the tears of a person offended by you, because he will ask me for help, and I will help” - who was the first to say?
How often do you read, quote or publish philosophical phraseological units? How confident are you in their authenticity? Have you thought that in wise theses there are controversial topics inciting enmity? Today we will analyze one of the phraseological units, which is incorrectly presented by many users of the network.
VKontakte, classmates, Momir, Facebook and Instagram are full of animations and stylistic Christian graphic drawings with a “strong” phraseology “Fear the tears of the person you offended, because he will ask me for help, and I will help.” Faced for the first time, a truly believing Orthodox or Catholic, exclaims - “How? And where is the repentance and ability to forgive with your heart? How is true forgiveness and teaching to extend the hand of help not only to friends and those in need, but also to their enemies? ”
We also decided to understand this issue and looked for the answer from the clergy of different faiths of Christianity.
The priest Leonid Lutkovsky has a quote with the Gospel of Matthew 5: 44-45
Matvey carried to the masses a message that you need to love not only friends and relatives, but also your enemies. If you are cursed, bless them sincerely and kindly. If you are haunted and oppressed, pray for their reassurance and insight. From all of the above, it is clearly clear that the creator and faith of Christian calls for forgiveness, and not to the call of revenge.
He also added later “... and then you will become the sons of your heavenly father. Which commands the sun to bring over evil and kind, and sends the rain on the righteous and unrighteous ... "
In addition, we found the answer of the Monk Orthodox Rector Archpriest Alexander Bilokur, who gave a response to numerous requests for the Christian origin of this thesis. As Alexander Bilokur pointed out, there is nothing of the kind in the Bible, and reminded that the Son of God Jesus called his followers to loyalty and forgiveness. In Luke. 6, 31 of the New Testament there is a recommendation that it is necessary to treat people exactly as you want to treat you. After all, you do not know how many people you wounded by negligence, and where your fair refusal caused irreparable damage.
At the same time, Alexander reasonably added that in early Christianity (before the arrival of the Son of God) there really were similar sentiments, but exclusively as a call to the action to repay the enemies with the same coin, while the reason for the Creator will take revenge in any Christian Bible no.
So, we found out - the Christian god has nothing to do with the philosophical phraseological unit considered in this article and all those who actively support such posts are nothing more than inciters of hatred and deviations from the true Christian faith.
And we began to look for an answer in other creeds, and found one of the tractes of the desired thesis in the Muslim clarifications of Sheikh al-Albani. Most likely, this vivid phraseology was rephrase from the Muslim hadith recorded by al-Khakim 1/83. It indicates that a true believer must remember that the prayer and even the call of the oppressed at the time of despair reaches Allah the fastest and is compared with a bright spark that flies into the sky.
So, we found out that the loud phrase flying the Internet is a philosophical with a religious shade, but does not have historical facts. At the same time, this thesis has a very interesting philosophical subtext, which we will consider, referring to the explanations of Abdurrahman-Ibn-Saramed-Davsi-al-Yamani.
“Fear the tears of a person offended by you, because he will ask me for help, and I will help” - what does the thesis mean?
Want to know which Creator the call for help should be directed to? Who can turn to God with such a request so as not to encounter the creator's anger? For the answer, we can again turn to the source, namely to Islam.
The Great Abdurrahman-Ibn-Samhrad-Davsi-al-Yaman conveyed wisdom to his followers in hadiths, and in particular Abu Daud 1536, AT-Tirmisi 2/256. He talked about the fact that the prayer of the oppressed has the strongest energy and rapidly reaches Allah. Parents in despair, traveling in a distress, the widow of the burdensome husband - their prayers like lightning fly into the sky to be heard and achieve justice!
As you can see, it is impossible to pray for help in cases of financial difficulties, with love bindings and other issues of not carrying vital aspects. Another thing is if the parents ask for revenge for a lost child, the traveler will be exhausted from hunger in a distant country, and instead of help he will receive a mockery, and this segment include widows who are not able to raise children on their own, and orphans, helpless in their childhood.
Do you think this applies exclusively to Muslims? Not at all! In the historically reliable source of Ahmad 3/153, Abu Ya’ly 3/721 describes that Allah is able to hear everyone and everyone, and at the time of despair and oppression will perform fair retribution even for the infidels, because Allah is fair and omnipotent.
So, in the hearts and in despair, you can pray to the Almighty for help, he will hear and answer the offender. Therefore, it is very important on the one hand to think about the cried words and even thoughts, because later you can realize that you have forgiven a person who committed a terrible act, but you cannot forgive yourself, for the curses sent after the offender. Indeed, for every deed, word and thought, we subsequently answer.
It is also important every day, every minute to remember that we can deliberately, or not even specially inflict irreparable damage to people, which will forever change both ours and other people's lives. Come on conscience so as not to regret unworthy actions and cowardice in the future.

Here you write: "So, we found out - the Christian god has nothing to do with the philosophical phraseology in this article and all those who actively support such posts are nothing more than inciters of hatred and deviations from true Christian faith. ""
You probably know the Christian faith superficially, otherwise you would not have written like that ... By your information in the book "Exodus" chap. 22 said: "
22 Neither widows nor orphans do not oppress;
23 If you oppress them, then when they cry to me, I will hear them,
24 And my anger will be ignited, and I will kill you with a sword, and your wives will be widows and your children. ”
As far as I understand, no one is in doubt the truth of the ZA in Christianity, so why do you write such nonsense? 🙁
The year passed, so why?
Answer to Alexander. Reread the SL, and better the whole Bible, in order to understand the difference between the command not to oppress widows, orphans and other unprotected in Israel, and not to offend anyone at all. He regularly waged wars into the raised people and God helped him, in the NZ Jesus Christ regularly offended scribes and Pharisees, and ap. Pavel gave the command to remove from the collection of unsuccessful sinners.
There is no early Christianity. The time to the death of Christ is the Old Testament. And then it begins with Moses. Before that, there was time described in the books of Genesis.
And about Jesus Christ. He did not scold the Pharisees, but told the truth.
RST+ Bible (Synodal translation)
Ish 22: 22-24: “Do not oppress the widow nor orphans; If you oppress them, then when they jump to me, I will hear them, and my anger will be ignited, and I will kill you with a sword, and your wives will be widows and your children. ”
When you unjustifiably offend a person, do not be offended that you will come to you as well.
