I saw this post which served as a wake-up call for me.

How many have driven off in their cars, never to return? How many put on their clothing, only to have it ripped away for burial by others? How many laid in their beds, only to be taken by the eternal sleep of death? And how many left their homes, never to come back, carried instead to the hospital and then to the graveyard?

If you have a voice inside you that says to you: "This is Halal and that is Haram", then Praise Allah, because your heart is alive. There are so many people today who are living but with a dead heart.

In the Holy Qur’ān, Allâh Sub’hanahū Wata’āla revealed in the following verses:

Maryam 19:88
وَقَالُوا۟ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ وَلَدًا

And they say: "The Most Beneficent (Allah) has begotten a son (or offspring or children) [as the Jews say: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allah, and the Christians say that He has begotten a son ['Iesa (Christ)], and the pagan Arabs say that He has begotten daughters (angels, etc.)]."

Maryam 19:89
‎لَّقَدْ جِئْتُمْ شَيْـًٔا إِدًّا

Indeed you have brought forth (said) a terrible evil thing.

Maryam 19:90
تَكَادُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِنْهُ وَتَنشَقُّ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَتَخِرُّ ٱلْجِبَالُ هَدًّا

Whereby the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins,

Maryam 19:91
‎أَن دَعَوْا۟ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ وَلَدًا

That they ascribe a son (or offspring or children) to the Most Beneficent (Allah).

Maryam 19:92
وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا

But it is not suitable for (the Majesty of) the Most Beneficent (Allah) that He should beget a son (or offspring or children).

Maryam 19:93
إِن كُلُّ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَّآ ءَاتِى ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ عَبْدًا

There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes unto the Most Beneficent (Allah) as a slave.

[Quran 19:88-93]

So what about when you O Muslim, celebrate Kuffār festivals like the Christmas? The Christmas is a day the Kuffār celebrates to remember the birth of ‘Easa عليه السلام, whom they associate with Allâh Sub’hanahū Wata’āla as the “son” which is nothing but pure Shirk, معاذ الله! So how can you, Ya Muslim, greet the Kuffār and then participate in celebrating such festivals? Are you pleased that they are ascribing partners to our Rabb?

Reflect..

‏اللهم إنا نسألك حسن الخاتمة
اللهم لا تقبضنا من الدنيا إلا وأنت راضٍ عنا
اللهم حُسن البقاء وحُسن الرحيل وحسن الاثر يـارب ❤️‍?

"The Azaan you hear at your birth is for the Salah perfomed at your death. That's how short life is."

live each day as if it could be our last.striving to make the most of the time we have been granted. Weep for yourself, before you are wept for. Compel yourself to perform acts of obedience, before you are carried on people's necks. Hold yourself accountable, before you are held accountable. They are only a few moments during which you hold yourself accountable, but are far better than days that are lost for which you will be recompensed.

-Silent moments

I felt this?.

“I’m embarrassed of my Lord if an entire day goes by without me opening the book of my Rabb”

Mālik b. Dīnār said,

❝If the dunyā consisted of temporary gold, and the Hereafter of eternal sand, then a smart person should choose the eternal sand and ignore the temporary gold!”

I say: ‘Well, then how difficult can our choice really be, when we know that the dunyā consists of temporary sand and the Hereafter consists of eternal gold?’❞

(al-Qurṭubī, al-Jāmiʿ li-Aḥkām al-Qurʾān: 20/22)
