Madani Inamaat,Rahe Nijaat

Book Name:Madani Inamaat,Rahe Nijaat

Moreover, Heavenly gardens become their abodes and another blessing is that their wrongdoings are also wiped out by virtue of righteous deeds. Therefore, valuing life before death, health before illness, youth before the old age and free time before becoming busy, we should accumulate more and more virtuous deeds for the Hereafter and protecting ourselves from sins we should remain busy with sincerity and steadfastness performing the deeds that lead to Paradise.

Sayyiduna Jabir Bin ‘Abdullah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has said that, giving a sermon to us, the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: O people! Repent in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ before you die and hasten to perform righteous deeds before you get busy and establish your connection with Allah Almighty by means of doing Zikr of Allah Almighty abundantly and by giving Sadaqah secretly and apparently, so you will be given sustenance, you will be helped and your loss will be compensated. (Sunan Ibn Majah, vol. 2, pp. 5, Hadees 1081)

سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! In this blessed Hadees, persuading those [who perform virtuous deeds] to ponder over the Hereafter and perform righteous deeds, the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has given them good news of abundant sustenance and ease in difficulties, but remember it is very necessary to make accountability of your own deeds with steadfastness for avoiding sins and performing virtuous deeds. Everyone, therefore, should ponder seriously over the consequences of their deeds by thinking: Is whatever I do or doing or want to do, beneficial or harmful to my Hereafter? Surely, the character and conduct of the Muslim, who forms the habit of making accountability of her deeds and pondering over the Hereafter, will gradually improve and her Hereafter will also get better اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ. The importance and benefit of making accountability of deeds can be judged by the fact that we have been especially persuaded into doing it in the Holy Quran and blessed Hadees:

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ لْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍۚ-

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: O People who believe! Fear Allah, and every soul must see what it has sent ahead for tomorrow.

(Part 28, Surah Al-Hashr, Ayah 18)
