*Did you Remember this Story?*
---------------------------------بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Everybody who have an iota of eemaan and sees or knows about the ways some people live their lives will feel jealous. Yes. Especially what happened today during the funeral activities of one of my fathers and my Sheikh. Oh my God❗ Come and see the population of people who attended his funerals and the comments they made about him❗ Come and see the population of students (old & young) who learned the Deen and especially Quran through this man❗
This man passed away today and has been buried according to Islamic injunction.
But,
*What is the story I want to remind you about?*
This happened 8-9years ago.. One of my childhood friends whose father is also a friend to my father, who was critically sick and was taking to hospital for medication. The old man entered into COMA (a prolonged state of deep unconsciousness) which lasted for three (3) days.. Four (4) different qualified professional medical doctors ganged up on him, but they could not be able to get him out of coma until after the third day.
But,
Something amazing happened when he was on coma.. And this have really shocken all the doctors. Yes. This old man was unconscious and can not speak or move any part of his body. But the first day on hospital bed,, at exactly 2AM, the doctors noticed him moving his fingers & lips just like someone who is using fingers to count azkar after swalat.. He kept moving his fingers while unconscious and stopped at 3AM on the dot.. The same thing happened the second day and the third day.. So, the doctors asked his children whether they could give reasons to the cause of their father (an old man) who is unconscious, moving his tongue & fingers 2AM to 3AM the first, second and third day while unconscious.. And the reason the children gave was that - "for many years now, *2AM to 3AM* - is the time their father used to be awake for Tahajjud.. Allahu Akbar!!!
Muslim Faithful!
We are all in this world to work after which we expect a retirement benefits but this time around from Allah (swt). Infact, we get retirement benefits from Allah (swt) even before retirement and even after death😳. Yes. Unlike worldly employer who will stop paying you immediately you die. This is evident in the hadeeth of Abu Mūsa al-Ash‘ari (ra) who reported:
The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: *"If a person falls ill or travels, he shall be credited with whatever good deeds he used to perform while at home and in good health."* 📚Sahih/Authentic. - [Al-Bukhari]
Oh My People!
If a person becomes unable to do certain good deeds he or she habitually performs due to a lawful excuse, like travel or illness, while having a firm intention to resume it once he or she is able, he or she will have the full reward exactly as if he or is healthy and in residence.
My people!
Tahajjud person will have his DAILY Tahajjud coming to his or her grave everyday, appearing like a beautiful handsome companion to keep him or her company till the day of accountability.
Evidence:
From a long narration, al-Bara’ ibn ‘Aazib (ra), the Prophet (pbuh) said: ".. there comes to him a man with a handsome face and handsome clothes, and a good fragrance, who says, ‘Receive the glad tidings that will bring you joy this day.’ He says, ‘Who are you? Your face is a face which brings glad tidings.’ He says, ‘I am your righteous deeds..." 📚Ahmad (4/362)
*The Truth of the Matter is:*
“The best of all nawafil prayer is prayer in the depths of the night. ”📚[Muslim]
Therefore,
If u have not yet set ur phone alarm in a repeating mode, to wake u up for midnight nawafil *(at least 2 rakaats every night, then, go back to catch up with your sleep)* till the end of ur life, pls do so immediately. Yes. It's not difficult bcos people are doing it everyday without missing.. It's all about priority
