The Choice u Make

 *The Choice u Make*

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Sleep is as sweet as good wife material. Yes. In this life, no one can dispute the fact that sleeping at night is so so sweet and enjoyable. infact, what makes the entire journey of sleep so wonderful, enjoying and intriguing is that its innate quality of putting the person into an unconscious state with so many sub-conscious thoughts working in the background😃. These sub-conscious thoughts finally become the animated characters of our dreams.

Dear reader,

How do you feel if you are sleeping in the afternoon and a call was made to establish obligatory swalah - zuhr or Asr prayer? You don't feel like leaving your bed right? But because of Allah, you force yourself to answer the call... Wallahi Tallahi the same way people who wake up for Tahajjud are feeling each time their phone alarm rings. Remember that Tahajjud prayer is not an obligatory swalah, but people still force themselves to key into establishing it every night for many years without missing.

Because only the PRIVILEGED amongst the slaves of Allah press down their desire for wanting to continuing sleeping😃, Allah (swt) accorded Tahajjud prayer unquantifiable rewards, the kind which is not given for other voluntary prayers.

The Truth of the Matter is,

“The best of all nawafil prayer is prayer in the depths of the night.”📚[Muslim] and it is established that the success of every believer lies in his or her obligatory prayers. If it is complete, he or she is successfully saved. And where there's shortfalls, our nawafil prayers are used to fill in the missing gaps created in our obligatory prayers. 📚Source: Sunan al-Tirmidhi‌ 413

Remember that,

Abu Hurayrah (ra) reported: The Prophet (pbuh) said: “During your sleep, Satan ties three knots at the back of the head of each one of you, and he seals each knot with the following words: ‘The night is long, so keep on sleeping.’ When that person wakes up and remembers Allah, one knot is undone; when he makes ablution the second knot is undone; and when he prays, all his knots are undone, and he gets up in the morning active and in good spirits, otherwise he gets up in bad spirits and sluggish.” 📚[Al-Bukhāri and Muslim]

Oh My People!

We are given in this world, the ability to make choices after the age of puberty and we will later be punished or rewarded based upon those choices.. Yes.. Allah (swt) gives each of us the natural Fitrah, knowledge of good and bad as well as right and wrong. The rest is up to us!

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!

Ending this reminder,

The Prophet (pbuh) said to Abdullah: *“O `Abdullah, do not be like so and so! He used to pray at night and then he stopped doing that”*(📚Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

Allah alone knows best


سبحانك اللهم وبحمدك نشهد ان لا اله الا انت نستغفرك ونتوابوااليك
