True Regrets ...
If only I have read a portion of the Quran everyday in my youth, how many times could I have completed the Quran in my lifetime, but I let it slip away.
If only I had fasted two days a week, Mondays and Thursdays then, how many additional days of fasting would I have accumulated each year. But I neglected it all.
My life was consumed with this worldly life
If only I had learned Arabic,
If only I had spent more time with the Quran,
If only I had prayed regularly at the masjid
If only I had been more devoted to my parents
If only, if only, if only ...
There will come a time when regret sets in and our youth is forever gone
and doctors visits are frequent
and medicines fill up the pantry
and ...
The Prophet ﷺ advised to: “Take benefit of five before five: Your youth before your old age, your health before your sickness, your wealth before your poverty, your free time before you are preoccupied, and your life before your death”
