REFLECTING ON THE WORLDLY LIFE

Sheikh Ali ibn Abdur-Rahman Al-Hudhaifi - 23 Dhul-Hijjah 1435

His Eminence Sheikh Ali ibn Abdur-Rahman Al-Hudhaifi, may Allah preserve him, delivered the Friday Khutbah entitled, “Reflecting on the Worldly Life”, in which he talked about the true meaning of the worldly life and man’s brief stay in it, showing that this should prompt every Muslim to take advantage of his time by doing acts of obedience to Allah and avoiding evil deeds. In the course of his stirring sermon, he cited a number of Qur’anic verses and Prophetic Hadiths to substantiate these ideas.

Praise be to Allah, the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving. He causes the night to succeed the day and the day to succeed the night and everything with Him is in due proportions. I praise my Lord and thank Him for His favours and His grace. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, Who has no partners, the One, the All-Dominant, and I bear witness that our prophet and master, Muhammad, is His servant and chosen messenger. O Allah! Bestow Your prayers, peace, and blessings upon Your servant and messenger Muhammad and upon his family and righteous Companions.

Now then, Fear Allah, Exalted be He, and obey Him, for obedience to Allah is the soundest and most upright way. Take provisions for the hereafter and know that the best provision is fear of Allah.

Servants of Allah!
If you think deeply about this transient worldly life, its despicable ornaments, and its ever-changing nature, you will realize its real worth and true meaning. He who trusts it will be deceived, and he who is inclined to it will be doomed. This world is as short as one’s life in it. One’s life starts with a few hours, which are followed by further hours, then days, then months, and then years. Then life comes to an end, and nobody knows about the horrifying matters that await him after his death. read more

SUCCESS

Today, I interviewed my grandfather for part of my research paper I’m working on for my Psychology class. When I asked him to define success in his own words, he smiled and said, “Success is when you look back at your life and the memories make you smile.
