“I longed for marriage”
.. and I got married
But life without children is deserting
Thus “I longed to be blessed with children”
… and I got children
But within no time my small apartment made me uncomfortable..
I therefore longed for bigger house with garden..
well, I got it, though with much efforts
Yes, I possessed a mansion, but my children are grown up by then
Hence, I longed for them to get married…
They are now married, yet official responsibilities give me fatigue
Now I resorted to retirement, to get some rest…
.. Ive retired, but become single, just as I was after graduation..
.. After graduation I noticed, I approached life, but now,
I bid life farewell..
Still, I do have ambitions..
.. I “longed for Quranic memorization..
.. but my memory betrayed me..
.. I longed to frequent fasting…
… yet my health condition won’t allow ..
.. I longed for night devotion “Qiyamul layl”…
.. but my feet can no longer carry me …
VERILY The Prophet (ﷺ)
made it categorical that
“Make profit out of five things before those five things over take you:
*Youthfulness* before the old age
*Health* before illness
*Affluence* before austerity
*Free time* before busy moment
*Life* before your death”
NB: If your daily routine is empty of the following activities, be quick and insert them NOW…or NEVER :
*2 Raka'at of salah tul Dhuha
*Daily Quranic recitation routine
*Qiyamul layl
*Alms giving /supporting the needy
*Spreading good word/nasiha/salam
*May Allah SWT guide us all*
امييييين يارب العالمين
