Asalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatulla Wa Barakatuhu
SubhanAllah. Look around you. We are surrounded by dunya. Right now, i'm in school, i have tons of homework and i still haven't started. I'm gonna go home, after spending 6 hours in school, and then i'm gonna go on computer, chat and check my forum..and then do some work...and then go to sleep...Wow subhanAllah, my whole day wasted. Most of the times, i don't think i earn any good deed. We are so distracted by this dunya, whie we KNOW it's worth nothing. How much of our time is spent remembering Allah? Ibn Taymiyyah (ra) said :Remembrance of Allah is to the heart what water is to fish. What happens to a fish when it is taken out of water?" Allah says "Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying, etc.). I will remember you, and be grateful to Me (for My countless Favours on you) and never be ungrateful to Me."[2:152] Imagine that. Allah remembering us! Allah remembering us, those who are made of clay, made from nutfah! SubhanAllah. Allah is truly Ar Rahmanir Raheem!
So let's try to increase our dhikr sisters. Now how do we do this? Read more quran! Quran is just amaaazing..We lose the essence of Quran in the translation, but this is the best we can do.. This advice is foremost for me..May Allah guide us Ameen
And sisters please do comment and give suggestions inshallah.
