بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum
'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) used to fear two things: the long hope, and following desires. He said: “Long hope makes (you) forget all about the Hereafter, and following desires hinders (you) from the way of Truth (i.e. Islamic monotheism, good deeds, obedience, etc.)”
He used to say: “Verily, this world has run away and the Hereafter is coming forward (to us) very fast. And there are sons for each one of them, so be of the sons of the Hereafter [i.e. loving the Hereafter and do good deeds that Allah has enjoined so that He may admit you to Paradise], and do not be of sons of this world (i.e. who love this world and who live their lives committing sins, disobedience, etc.) for in this world there are deeds and no accounts but Tomorrow (Day of Account) there will be only account and no deeds (that could be done).”
Ali ibn Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “I asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah, what are the best deeds during this month’?” ‘He replied: ‘O Abu-Hassan, the best of deeds during this month is to be far from what Allah has forbidden’.”
May Allah help us be of sons and daughters of the Hereafter and help us be dutiful to our parents and enable us to do abundant good and righteous deeds and accept our deeds.
May Allah increase us in taqwa and bless us throughout this Ramadhan and every day and every night and in every breath until the final breath that we take in this life. Ameen.
Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.
And Allah knows best and is Most Wise, and He alone grants success, and to Him is the final return of all.
Wassalaam
