Story of 🦂 Bite

 *Story of 🦂 Bite*

-----------------

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم

Each one of us pines after an entrance to Paradise, reserved for the sincere believers in the hereafter. But, are we sincerely striving to attain our place in it? Wallahi only the righteous deeds in this world can pave the way for this.

My People,

Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The prophet (pbuh) said, “Verily, in Paradise are rooms whose outside can be seen from inside and whose inside can be seen from outside.” Abu Musa said, “Who are they for, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet said, “For those who spend the night standing for the sake of Allah while people sleep.” 📚Source: Musnad Ah‌mad 6436

The above scenario is a case of servants of Allah who will enter paradise ooooo❗We are not concerned with those who will dwell in hellfire. Allah forbid!

This reminds me,

I have seen a servant of Allah who was stung by a big scorpion 🦂 in the night around 9:30PM 6years ago when he travel out of the town city, and very unfortunate for him, it happened in the village where there's no modern health facilities to get himself treated.. He was left with no option than to travel to nearby village for treatment using herbs 🌿. Wallahi Tallahi this man could not sleep throughout the night because of pains BUT that did not prevent this man from waking up for Tahajjud. Yes. He squeeze inside pains to establish dry ablution (Tayamum), pray 2rakaats sitting down, make dua and go back to bed.

The same person,

The following year, he traveled to his hometown to see his parents. While sleeping in middle of the night, few minutes before the due alarm time he set for Tahajjud, 2 small scorpions 🦂🦂 lunch on him another painful attack. He wake up, kill them, eat small quantity of onion 🧅and establish ablution for Tahajjud. Guess what he did that night❗Wallahi he recited suratul baqarah complete (286 verses) in the first Rakaat and one short surah in the second Rakaat. But before he finished the first Rakaat, the pains of scorpion 🦂 bite have vanished. Allahu Akabar!

Brothers & sisters, if you are the one who experience these two trial of scorpion 🦂 bites, how would you do? Be honest with yourself!

Many Muslims today don't care much about Tahajjud. Few MUSLIMS who pray Tahajjud don't do it everyday.

The bitter truth is,

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said:👉 *“The best prayer after the obligatory prayers is the night prayer.”* 📚(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

Therefore,

I want to use this medium to remind myself and you that, 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.

To end this piece,

Abdullah ibn 

Amr (RA) reported that the Prophet (pbuh) said to him: *“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
