Yazid bin Malik was an Umayyad Caliph; he was a new caliph who came after Umar bin Abdul Aziz (R.A). One day he said, "Who says kings are not blessed with happiness...? I will show by spending today with absolute happiness, now let's see who stops me...?" It was said to him, "Nowadays rebellions are taking place, this is happening, that is happening, so it will cause trouble." He replied, "Today, no national news should be told to me, even if the biggest rebellion occurs, I do not want to hear any news. I want to spend today with happiness." He had a very beautiful slave-girl whose beauty was unmatched, named Hubabah. He loved her more than his wives. Taking her along, he entered the palace. Fruits arrived, drinks arrived, things arrived; they wanted to spend the day happily. Less than half the day had passed, he was holding Hubabah in his lap, laughing and joking with her, and plucking grapes with his own hand to feed her. He took a grape and put it in her mouth. She laughed at something, and that grape went straight into her windpipe and got stuck, and with a sudden jerk, her life departed. The day he wanted to spend with the greatest happiness became the worst day of his life, such that he went mad and insane. For three days he did not allow her to be buried, until her body rotted and decomposed. By force, the leaders of Bani Umayyah snatched her body and buried it, and two weeks later, he died in madness. Such is the end of arrogance. (Bikhray Moti: 5-256, on the authority of Hayat-ul-Hayawan) _____________📝📝_____________ Narrated. Selection: Islamic Tube Pro App
