mashallah subhan allah, indeed it is a great example and reminder as brother mohammed said.

jazakullah kheir for you post. what a nice message to read to start of my morning / day.

everyday, we should do better in worship then the day before. eg: if the day before we prayed 2 rukat extra, the next day we should increase it to 4, the 3rd day, we should add more to the reading quran or make more tasbih, 4th day, more dua or supplication followed by what you did the days before and slowly increase it. you will be surprised how much of worship you have done.

hope it makes sense, or someone please put in sense what im trying to say because im not good at making sense.

salam to all.

Nothing we say is more severe than Hell & nothing more greater than Paradise:

Ali Ibn Abi Talib (Allah be pleased with him) said:

'Mention what you will of the greatness of Allah, but Allah is greater than anything you say.

And mention what you will of the Fire, but it is more severe than anything you say.

And mention what you will of Paradise, but it is better than anything you say.'

{Abu Bakr Al-Daynuri, Al-Mujalasah wa Jawahir Al-'Ilm article 853.}

What has passed of your life will not return to you!


One of the pious predecessors wrote to one of his brothers:"Oh my brother, it appears to you as if you are a resident (In this world). However, you are really only persistently travelling, and you are moving rapidly. Death is heading towards you, and this life is passing behind you. What has passed of your life will not return to you (in order to rectify it) on the Day of Resurrection."

So this short life is passing by us so rapidly. How often we think to ourselves how fast time is passing us by? This life is our ONLY opportunity to gain success in the Hereafter and after this opportunity has passed us then we will NEVER be able to gain back such a chance ever again.

Abû Hâzim said,"The merchandise of the hereafter is in little demand. It is about to be spent with no one obtaining it except a few, not many."

How much we crave for materialistic things which have many defects and are temporary and they are NOTHING compared to the merchandise of the Hereafter which hace no defects and will last forever! Such merchandise can only be gained through good righteous deeds.

So let us grab as much merchandise of the Hereafter as we can right now as tomorrow is not guaranteed and after death we will NEVER gain this opportunity again.

Therefore it is crucial upon the believer to take advantage of what remains from his life. In explanation of this, it is said:

"the remainder of the believer's life is priceless."

Sa'îd ibn Jubayr said, "Each day the believer lives, is a treasure."

Ibn Jawzi’s Advice To His Son

“Know, dear son,
that days are but hours,
and hours are but breaths,
and every soul is a container,
hence let not any breath pass without any benefit,
such as on the Day of Judgment you find an empty container and feel regret!
Be aware of every hour and how it passes,
and only spend it in the best possible way;
do not neglect yourself,
but render it accustomed to the noblest and best of actions,
and send to your grave that which will please you when you arrive to it.”

[Imam Ibn al-Jawzi in his letter of advice to his son, as contained in his work: “Laftat al-Kabid fee Naseehat al-Walad”]
