"My Muslim brothers and Muslim sisters!!!"
A brief advice and some recommendations as regards the last ten days of Ramadan in which Allah the most high has described in the holy book as numbered days, a time for racing, competition and harvesting the bounties and proceeds, the bounties of this holy month include the following such as; liberation from the hellfire, forgiveness of sins, elevated ranks, and opportuned to supplication at the Night of Decree and Majesty, which is better than a thousand months as said in the holy book.
My advice to everyone is to capitalise on these nights, and not to be idle and negligent during these numbered days of harvesting the proceeds and worship.
Negligence, laziness, indolence, fatigue and apathy are not encouraging and expected during this time when people compete in harvesting the great opportunities and blessings that Allah has bestowed in these days, in this particular moments of numbered days that Allah, Blessed and Exalted, has reduced so that people can compete in them without getting stressed due to elongation and feeling of fatigue.
These are numbered days, so seize them and take advantage of them, for they quickly come to an end, quickly pass and fade off
So regret afterwards for wasting and plundering its moments such as failure to recite Quran, failure to pray at nights with standing in prayer, not engaging in fasting as ordained in the Quran, lack of remembrance of Allah and so on would be of no use and essence when the time has passed on and concluded so it is just an opportunity that someone should capitalize on.
Emphasis as it was aforementioned above these days are numbered, so seize them, avoid negligence. This is one of greatest seasons that Allah has bestowed upon Muslim Ummah in general and one of the most beautiful period for partaking in worship and getting more closer to Allah, especially since souls are inspired and inclined to obey Allah the most beneficent and most merciful.
So, let each one of us take this great chance and opportunity, the huge gift, which does not involve much fatigue and stress.
Let us not be idle during the time of harvesting these uncommon bounties, O honorable ones, let us not be among the negligent in order to reap the fruit of these great time that is better than a thousand years.
Do not feel fatigue and tired in the remembrance of Allah and Ibaadah and the rewards would be there for you to reap and harvest.
Just some quick illustrations as regards catching up to every opportunity that comes your direction;
If a wind blows towards you seize them *** for every flutter has a moment of calm as it is.
And do not neglect the excellence that might comes with it *** for you do not know when calmness will come as it is.
"If you are diligent, then upgrade your diligence, and if you are fatigue and lukewarm, then renew your determination with unimaginable strength"
"Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "When the last ten days of Ramadan arrived, the Prophet (peace be upon him) tightened his waist belt, spent the night in worship, and woke up his family."
Tightening his waist belt is a metaphoric illustration for seriousness and exertion in worship during these remaining ten days, which are separated from us by short moments before entering the greatest nights of the year which is the Night of Majesty, that's better than a thousand months as said earlier on.
So, we ask Allah to enable us to stand on this blessed Night with faith and seeking reward
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever stands in prayer on the Night of Decree with faith and seeking reward will have his previous sins forgiven."
This was transmitted by Bukhari and Muslim from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him).
And may Allah bless and grant peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and companions
