NIN_NOOL Posted August 14, 2003 The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam, said, "The best actions are continuous ones even if little..." [Muslim] After I looked at my own state and the state of those who waste their time, I wanted to encourage our souls to obey and worship Allah `azza wa jall by compiling a list of some well-known actions that Allah `azza wa jall has honored us with and prepared a great reward for those who do them. This list is also a reminder of better utilizing our time and seizing the opportunity of every hour and making use of it. My goal in compiling the list is not to point out the actions as much as to show the necessity of organizing and planning and preserving one's time by investing it in something good. The forenoon prayer Recitation of the Quran Salawat on the Prophet, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam Praying Salat al-Janazah Remembrance of Allah, `azza wa jall Saying Subhan Allah, alhamdulillah and Laa ilaha ill Allah Teaching children Supplication Taking account of oneself Reading Removal of others’ difficulties and fulfillment of their needs Preserving ties of kinship Listening to da`wah tapes Visiting believers for Allah’s sake Remembering Allah after the obligatory prayers Making peace between people Advising Phoning relatives Writing one’s will Giving charity Reading traditions of the Prophet, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam Contemplating Mailing da`wah information Feeding the poor Praying Salat al-Istikharah Taking care of orphans Serving one’s family Seeking knowledge Ordering good Making sajdah Spreading Islamic knowledge Calling to Allah Giving Sadaqa jariyyah (charity that carries perpetual award) Guiding and nurturing one’s children Repeating after the mu’adhdhin Performing the night prayer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
