🌹Reflection about Time to Me and You
In the name of Allaah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
Man is experiencing a reduction in his lifespan since the time he left his mother’s womb; rather, he is as al-Hasan al-Basri (رَحِمَهُ ٱللَّٰهُ) said:
“[He is] a sum of days. Every time a day passes by, then some of the person and part of him passes by too.”
A day of his diminishes the month, the month diminishes the year and the year diminishes the lifespan. Every hour that passes the servant by brings him closer to his appointed time of death.
Ibn Mas’ūd (رضي الله عنه) said:
“I have not regretted anything the way I regretted a day when the sun set and subtracted from my lifespan, yet my actions did not increase within it.”
This was an example of his extreme concern for time.

May Allaah accept our ibaadat in this blessed month and forgive our shortcomings.
