Dear Islamic brothers! You have heard of the passion our pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ had when it came to the worship of Allah Almighty, and despite worshipping in abundance, they would humbly supplicate in Allah’s court for it to be accepted. We should also strive in gaining the pleasure of Allah Almighty by worshipping Him abundantly. By worshipping Him, we should make preparations to i) dispel the darkness of our grave, ii) gain protection against the heat of the Day of Judgement, iii) make our scale of good deeds weighty iv) cross the Bridge of Ṣirāṭ, v) attain high stations in Paradise.

Remember that Allah Almighty created us to worship Him, and humans have been sent to this world for a short period to fulfil this purpose. In this short time, we must prepare for the grave and Hereafter. Therefore, the wise person is the one who values this small amount of time by busying himself in preparing for the Hereafter and not wasting even a single moment of his precious time in useless activities, as a person is not aware of whether he will even remain alive for the next moment.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Success in this world and the Hereafter

Dear Islamic brothers, to be successful in this world and the Hereafter, it is necessary to carry out many righteous deeds with steadfastness. Alongside gaining essential knowledge and performing acts of worship that are obligatory, fulfilling rights also plays an important role. Those who are most worthy of our good conduct are our parents, and striving to obey one’s parents can also become a means of success in this world and the Hereafter. There is no doubt that parents are a great blessing of Allah Almighty; obeying them and remaining busy in fulfilling their needs is such a good deed that can make one successful in both worlds.
