THE RADIO ISLAM SOUL WARMERS PROJECT
It is Narrated in a Hadeeth: "Allah's Messenger (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) was the most generous of all people, and he used to reach the peak of generosity in the month of Ramadhan. Allah's Messenger (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) was the most generous person, even more generous than a strong uncontrollable wind (in readiness and haste to do charitable deeds)." BUKHARI
As the biting cold billows through, rattling our bones this winter, we appeal to our Radio Islam listeners & kind family to donate just R100 (or more) to supply a jacket to a needy child as part of our “Soul Warmers” project. Contact Hafiz Safwan Khan at skhan@radioislam.co.za or call us on 011 854 7022 to further extend the prophetic call to generosity.
Radio Islam... Help us to warm a soul this Ramadhaan. |
THE MESSAGE |
IMPORTANCE
OF TIME
"Take benefit of five before five:
your youth before your old age,
your health before your sickness,
your wealth before your poverty,
your free-time before your preoccupation,
and your life before your death."[Hadith- al-Haakim, al-Bayhaqee,
Saheeh]
MANY people forget or neglect the importance of time although man's
life on earth is a span of time. Islam gives due attention to the
issue of time because if people waste their time, they are actually
wasting their life.
The Noble Qur'an gives due attention to the idea of time and this
is clear in many verses of the Qur'an when Allah swears using the
different places of times of the day to reveal the importance of
time, "By the break of Day," (Qur'an, 1:89) "By (the
Token of) Time (through the ages),' (Qur'an, 1:103) etc.
Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam says in one Hadith:
"There are two things that people are not aware of how important
they are: health and time." This Hadith stresses two facts:
People are not aware of the importance of being in good health till
they fall ill and people are not aware of the importance of time
and therefore waste their time doing trivial things.
There was research published in one of the magazines about how
man spends his time. The research revealed that if man lives for
60 years, he spends one third of his life sleeping because man usually
sleeps eight hours a day. Remaining years are spent in public transportation,
watching TV, eating, in the bathroom.etc. This means that the larger
part of man's life is spent in worldly matters. If a person, Karen
Armstrong, refers to this aspect of time in Prophet Muhammad's Sallallahu
Alyhi Wa Sallam life. She indicated that what the Prophet Sallallahu
Alyhi Wa Sallam did in 23 years was miraculous and what he accomplished
required thousands of philosophers, reformers, intellectuals and
mentors to do in hundreds of years.
To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who has failed
a grade.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who has given birth
to a pre-mature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of ONE DAY, ask a daily wage labourer who has
kids to feed.
To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the bride who is waiting to
meet her groom
To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who has missed
the train.
To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who has avoided
an accident.
To realize the value of ONE MILLI-SECOND, ask the person who has
won a silver medal in the Olympics.
The Characteristics of Time
We are to bear in mind that time has certain characteristics, among
of which are the following:
Time passes quickly.
Time that passes can never return, nor can it be compensated for,
for time is irretrievable.
Time is the most precious thing that man possesses.
The following are some of the most important duties demanded of
Muslims:
Ensuring benefitting from time.
Utilizing leisure time.
Racing for good deeds.
Learning from the passage of time.
Seeking the superior times.
Planning and organizing time.
Fulfillment of time commitments.
Necessary awareness of time wasters.
One of the methods of managing his time properly is for a Muslim
to get up early and sleep early, for early hours always yield great
blessings. Starting his day with prayer and the supplication of
the morning brings the Muslim Allah's grace. A Muslim should always
bear in mind that every time has its own task that suits it. Doing
tasks in their due times brings about peace of mind and comfort.
The most important aspect being gaining such knowledge of Islam
that will enable and empower one to do such actions at a given time
that pleases Allah abundantly! A Muslim is disciplined and uses
every second constructively and productively!
Narrated Abdullah Bin Mas`ud Allah's Messenger Sallallahu Alyhi
Wa Sallam said:"A man shall be asked concerning five things
on the day of resurrection: concerning his life, how he spent it;
concerning his youth, how he grew old; concerning his wealth, whence
he acquired it, and in what way he spent it; and what was it that
he did with the knowledge that he had." [Hadith]
May Allah guide us to use our time correctly and beneficially!!!...Ameen |

A
THOUGHT |
HERE
IS OUR BODY?
Our bodies are perfect organisms that allow us to live on earth in
comfort, to run and play, to read and write and, in short, they let
us perform each and every task. These organisms are so wonderful that
one cannot make anything that resembles them even with the most advanced
technology.
How much do you know about this body of yours, which works non-stop
and repairs itself when it runs down?

THE SMILE |
While
looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction
was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him
up every morning.
He asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother explained
that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, he shook his
head and said, 'Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff.'
