Only If We Knew the Value Now!

(Qari Amir Hasan Sahab (DB))
When people will see the result of saying Sub-han Allah once in this world, in the Heavens then they will wish to be sent to this world again. But that would not be. This is the world for actions. This is not the world where you get complete justice and complete reward. The next world is the one where you'll get complete justice and complete reward. But that is not he world where you'll get to indulge in actions that are rewarded.

A Prophetic (PBUH) Admonition

(Qari Amir Hasan Sahab (DB))
A Companion (RA) came to the beloved Prophet (PBUH) and asked for a brief admonition. Beloved Prophet (PBUH) told him not to indulge in anger. He asked for another admonition. Again the beloved Prophet (PBUH) asked him not to indulge in anger. He asked for one more admonition and got the same answer again.

The way we take all kinds of precaution during surgery so we should do in case of anger. Sit down, if standing. Lay down, if sitting. Go away from the person against whom you are angry. Perform Ablution. Drink water.
Today we do not seek cure for anger.

Our Attitude Today

Today we avoid acting upon Sunnah and avoid adoption of the Prophetic (PBUH) way.

Less is More

Maulana Wasiullah Sahab (RA) used to make only one admonition. ( To increase the chances of acting upon it.)

An Agony

Your agony should be that I have heard this admonition today and I have to act upon it.

Cry at Your Sins

Find some time to cry over your sins. Today we have adopted a get up that is against Sunnah. We have reduced Sunnah to an inferior way of life. This is something we should cry at.

Before You Act

Whenever you do a deed then do it according to the Doctrine (shariat) and do it after consultations.

Shaping the Character

Earlier we used to have the monasteries (khanqahs). These were the places where people were shaped.

The Cause of Decline

Today the Seminaries (madaris) are declining. The reason is that we are turning our attention to money.

Shifting the Operand

Today we are frugal about religion and acts of obedience and worship and not about the worldly possessions.
