THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 4th day of Ramadhan, 1445AH (Thursdays 14th March 2024). NOTHING SHOULD DISTRACT US FROM ACTS OF WORSHIP ON THIS BLESSED MONTH AND WE MUST INCREASE OUR GOOD DEEDS. BismilLah. 

ALLAH says in Qur’an 63:9:

O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of ALLAH.

ALLAH the Exalted orders HIS faithful servants to remember HIM frequently and to refrain from being distracted from HIS remembrance by indulging in their properties and children excessively.

وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فَأُوْلَيِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ

And whosoever does that, then they are the losers. 

ALLAH informs those who engage in this life, its delights, and attributes and were busied from the obedience and remembrance of ALLAH, for which they were created, will be among the losers. They will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection.

ALLAH continued by saying in verse 10

that

And spend of that with which ME ALLAH have provided you before death comes to one of you, and he says:

"My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while, then I should give Sadaqah from my wealth, and be among the righteous.

Surely, every person who fell into shortcomings will regret it by the time of his death and will ask for respite, even a short period, so that he does better and attains what he missed.

No, rather what occurred, has occurred and what is coming, shall indeed come. Each will be held accountable for his mistakes.

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.
