In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Allah Most High says in Surah Al Hajj that they are people who worship Allah based on their circumstances. Be careful that we are not this person because this person has lost this world and the Hereafter.
Life has its ups it has its downs. Allah tests us with good and bad. Whatever our situation we need to maintan consistency in our worship. In fact in times of stress and hardship, a believer increases his worship but some people turn away. They feel they are doing Allah a favor when they pray or fast or read Quran, but in fact it is Allah who is doing them a favor for having guided them to Islam.
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَعْبُدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ حَرْفٍ ۖ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُۥ خَيْرٌ ٱطْمَأَنَّ بِهِۦ ۖ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ فِتْنَةٌ ٱنقَلَبَ عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهِۦ خَسِرَ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْخُسْرَانُ ٱلْمُبِينُ ﴿١١
And of the people is he who worships Allah on an edge. If he is touched by good, he is reassured by it; but if he is struck by trial, he turns on his face [to the other direction]. He has lost [this] world and the Hereafter. That is what is the manifest loss. [Quran, Al-Hajj 22:11]
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱرْكَعُوا۟ وَٱسْجُدُوا۟ وَٱعْبُدُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ وَٱفْعَلُوا۟ ٱلْخَيْرَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ ۩ ﴿٧٧
O you who have believed, bow and prostrate and worship your Lord and do good - that you may succeed. [Quran, Al-Hajj 22:77]
May Allah make us of the righteous and grant us steadfastness. 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
