08. Repentance

The opportunity for repentance remains wide open, and regardless of the magnitude of one's transgressions, Allah stands prepared to embrace anyone who demonstrates genuine remorse. Even the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), throughout his lifetime, consistently sought forgiveness from Allah and turned to Him in repentance, despite his elevated position.

07. Qu'anic Guide

By diligently perusing the instruction manual accompanying any acquired possession, individuals open themselves up to the immense pleasure and satisfaction derived from making the most of their purchases. In a similar vein, Allah, in His infinite wisdom, bestowed upon humanity the Qur'an—an eternal and profound guidebook, designed to illuminate the path of mankind throughout the ages.

06. Truthfulness and Being with the Truthful

The profound words of our beloved Prophet resonate with great impact: "The faith of an individual aligns with that of their companions; therefore, exercise caution in choosing your friends." (Paraphrased Hadith) This sentiment echoes across diverse cultures and languages, encapsulated by the timeless adage: "Reveal to me your companions, and I shall unveil your true essence."

05. Steadfastness

He was sandwiched while trying to fix his car but in the ambulance, the police man heard him reciting this Aya in the most beautiful melodious voice he's ever heard. Subhanallah, these where his final words in the world.

15. Digging Yours

We have become accustomed to finding faults in others but ourselves to such an extent that we go around telling other people which in itself is a flaw. Why not becoming accustomed to digging within ourselves and understanding our own flaws, seeking Allah's forgiveness and His assistance to overpower this ego and desire. Hence the advice of Umar: 'Call yourself to account before you are called for accounting and judge yourself before your judgement comes to you.'

14. His Increase

We have become accustomed to neglecting and overlooking the every minute Allah's blessings upon us and have attained mastery in crying over His tests upon us. Why can't we become accustomed to expressing gratitude and focusing on His blessings upon us if truly we understand His saying:
لَئِن شَكَرتُم لَأَزيدَنَّكُم وَلَئِن كَفَرتُم إِنَّ عَذابي لَشَديدٌ
If you are to show gratitude and express thankfulness, I surely will make increase for you. (Ibrahim 7)

13. Multiplying

Many have become accustomed to spending so much money that they need not to on things that are of no importance to them with the hope of oppressing or impressing people that may not even care. Why not invest it in a trade which Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) is going to multiply it for you? "The likeness of the one who spends for the sake of Allah is like one who plants a seed that come out with seven ears, each ear having one hundred seeds, and for whosoever Allah wills, He multiplies that." (Baqara 261)

12. Recharging It

We have become accustomed to recharging our devices the moment we see the battery getting low for an hour or half. Better it would be if we become accustomed to recharging our Iman (faith) with repentance the moment we commit sins because then, the level of our Iman drops down.

11. Flip To Learn

Many have become accustomed to spending their presumed free time scrolling through the social media feeds. Imagine if we become accustomed to giving half that time, flipping or scrolling through the pages of beneficial books and learning new things instead?

10. Spiritual Compass

We have become accustomed to seeking advice and professional supports from experts and specialists in various fields whenever we want to do something that relates to that field, which is really a good one, but best is first seeking Allah's guidance, then seeking supports from those experts and finally putting trust in Allah. Hence you have Istikhara as a spiritual compass.

09. This Validation

Many have become accustomed to seeking validation and approvals of the creations of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) when instead we are supposed all to become accustomed to seeking the pleasure of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) for if He is pleased with us, then His obedient servants will also be pleased with us and we are in no need of validation from His disobedient servants.

08. Erasing Sins

As we have become accustomed to cleaning dirt around us or on us, better than it would be to become accustomed with cleaning the sins on us through seeking forgiveness and repenting to Allah, hence it is part of the Sunnah to at least seek forgiveness at least after obligatory every prayer.

07. Being Conservative

As we have become accustomed to being extra careful and concentrative when driving to avoid accidents that may cost us our lives, better it would be becoming accustomed to being extra careful and concentrative while in our Salah, because the greatest accident for a believer is being in the grave with crooked Salah.

06. Ignoring Whispers

We have become accustomed to ignoring calls or messages that we feel are disturbing or problematic to our mental or general wellbeing. Better than that would be becoming accustomed to fighting and ignoring the whispers from inner desires that make us disobey of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) which ultimately in itself is a recipe for calamities and ultimately destruction in the hereafter.

Apr 25, 202300:25

05. Come to Success

We are accustomed to quickly responding up calls from people beloved to when they call, hoping to hear good news from them. Better it would be if we become accustomed to responding to the call of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala) when the Mu’adhin makes it, for we are called to Allah who is more beloved to us and Who loves us more than any creation. Hence we are called Hayya alas-salah, come to SUCCESS.

04. First Message

Many have become accustomed and make it a priority to check their messages as the first thing they do in the morning expecting messages from people of importance . If only we were to do that for the Qur'an because the Qur'an is a message from Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) to you and I or the ahadith of the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) because he is a guide for humanity until the Day of Judgement. How would we have been? So let's become accustomed to that.

03. Just One Third

Why not give just that little

02. Using The Qur'an

In the same manner we have become accustomed, with the advent of smart devices, holding different kinds of gadgets and using them at the regular intervals. Better it would be if we become accustomed to holding the Qur'an, opening it, reading it at regular intervals, for we would get reward for every single harf (letter) we have recited, just like the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) has mentioned in an authentic narration.

01. Taqwa

In the same way we have become accustomed to always striving for success in our endeavors, Allah has given us the month of Ramadan so that we become accustomed to righteous good deeds. Perhaps we would be among those who attain TAQWA. Hence He said (Subhanahu wa ta'ala): ...كُتِبَ عَلَيكُمُ الصِّيامُ كَما كُتِبَ عَلَى الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِكُم لَعَلَّكُم تَتَّقونَ ...Fasting has been prescribed upon you is just as it was to the nations that came before you perhaps you may attain TAQWA.
