O Allaah! I seek refuge with you

لا إله إلا الله

From Abu Hurairah, may Allaah be pleased with him, who said,

“From his, صلى الله عليه وسلم, supplications was:

“O Allaah! I seek refuge with you:

– from an evil neighbour; and
– from a wife (or husband) who causes me to grow old before old age; and

– from a son (or child) who will become a master over me; and
– from wealth which will become a punishment for me; and

– from a cunning friend whose gaze is upon me and whose heart is plotting and planning against me such that if he sees something good he buries it, and if he sees something bad he spreads it.”

(Silsilah Sahiha – no. 3137)

An Encouragement To Carry On Good Deeds Even If Qiyāmah Is Seconds Away

 

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : إن قامت الساعة وفي يد أحدكم فسيلة ، فإن استطاع ألا تقوم حتى يغرسها فليغرسها

 

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said:

 

“If the final hour arrives and one of you has a palm-shoot in his hand but it is possible to plant it before the final hour is established, then plant it.”

For they used to whisper to their Lord

al-Ḥasan al-Baṣri:

“We used to be amongst a group of people (i.e., the Companions) who would never do any act in public if they could do so in private.

And those Muslims would strive in making their du’aa, and not a sound would be heard from them!

For they used to whisper to their Lord.”

[Report by at-Tabari in his Tafsir 5/514]

Imagine sisters trusting you this much.

When he’d walk, his gaze would never exceed his feet.

لا إله إلا الله

Imagine sisters trusting you this much.

كان منا رجل يقال له الأسود بن كلثوم و كان إذا مشى لا يجاوز بصره قدمه و كان يمر وفي الجدر يومئذ قِصرٌ و هناك نسوة ولعل إحداهن تكون واضعة يعني ثوبها أو خمارها فإذا رأينه راعهن ثم يقلن : كلا إنه أسود بن كلثوم

Humayd ibn Hilal:

Among us there was a man named Aswad ibn Kulthum.

When he’d walk, his gaze would never exceed his feet.

There were some chambers of a palace along the way, in which there would be some women who would have removed their headscarves or part of their clothes.

When he’d be approaching, they’d feel scared and rush to cover themselves.

Then they’d say: Oh! It’s only Aswad ibn Kulthum!

If you want to be more dedicated to your Salah

لا إله إلا الله

If you want to be more dedicated to your Salah and want to pray on time, you have to stop listening to music.

You might be thinking: “Where is the correlation?”

You see, the heart is a vessel which can only hold one thing at a time, and it acts upon whatever it holds.

So when you listen to music you won’t have any room in your heart for the Qur’an, so when the time for prayer comes, you just won’t be able to pray, because your heart deep down just doesn’t want to recite the Qur’an.

The worst part is that you won’t be able to pray even though you want to, you’ll just sit around wondering why you keep delaying it.

So the best thing you can do, is leave it, perform wudoo’, pray two rakat, and repent to Allaah sincerely.

And begin listening to Qur’an to heal…
