:salam2:
Today, when I woke up, first of all I checked what the time right now is. I was late for my duty, means only half an hour left to reach my office at time. I jumped from my bed, washed my face, hurriedly taken bath and without doing breakfast, driven my car as fast as I can to reach my office and resume my duty.
Suddenly, a thought came into my mind, why am I in rush? Do I afraid from my boss, or am I going to lose my job? What kind of fear is it which diverted my all attention towards one and that is to reach at my office on exact time? I can safe myself from my boss by giving any excuse. So why am I in hurry? I’m in hurry because of the unknown ‘fear’.
Actually I was thinking when I hear Hayya 'ala-s-Salah] "Hurry to the prayer (Rise up for prayer)” I take it very leniently and keep myself busy/free in whatever condition I am. Then I hear Hayya’ala-l-Falah] “Hurry to success (Rise up for Salvation)” still my condition is same. That mean there is no fear of Almighty Allah SWT in me that is why I am delaying the prayers. Not even delaying the prayers, but also not praying/offering it on time. Why don’t I have fear same as above when I was late for my duty?
So, I asked myself do I fear from Allah SWT?
What about you?
P.S. A humbly reminder ![]()
