Build Ur Mansion

 *Build Ur Mansion*

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

بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم

Think about this: If Adam and Eve never came to Earth, we would all be in Paradise right now. Every one of us. We would have been born there.

But here is the truth.

Paradise has different levels. Some homes there are small. Some are huge, like palaces.

Now,

Imagine if Allah (swt) put us all in Paradise today. He then says, "You get this very small house. But you over there, you get that giant, beautiful mansion."

We would all ask, "Why? That's not fair! Why is their home better?"

But,

Allah (swt) is the Most Fair. He does not want us to ask that question on the Day of Judgment.

So, He sent us here. To Earth. This life is our working time. This is our chance to build our own place in Paradise. The harder we work for Allah here, the bigger and better our home there will be. No complaints. Because we built it with our own actions here.

So, how do we build the biggest, most beautiful home?

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.

This is Tahajjud.

If you wake up for Tahajjud, you are not just praying, you are building. You are designing your mansion in Paradise with every bow, every prostration, every tear you shed in the dark night.

Yes!

Everyone is sleeping. You are awake with Allah (swt). You are telling Him with your actions: "My faith is more important than my sleep. My home in the Hereafter is more important than my comfort now."

Allah sees you. And He is shy to turn away His servant who leaves their warm bed to call on Him. He will open doors you never imagined. He will give you peace in your heart now, and a palace you cannot imagine, later.

My People,

Don't just dream of Paradise. Build it. Yes. Night by night. Prayer by prayer.

Your mansion is waiting. Will you pick up the tools every blessed night?

Angels carry the attendance register every night. Never miss even for one night. Do it until the end of your life.

Remember to set your phone alarm to "repeat" every day, forever (if you have not done that). Take it the way you can maintain for a long time without missing. At least, 2 raka'ats every blessed night and go back to catch up with your sleep. Just make it consistent. In less than 20 minutes, you are done.
