Imām Ahmad rahimahullāh would close his eyes when he would look at a Christian. He was asked regarding that, so he rahimahullāh said: “I am not able to look at those who slander Allāh and lie upon Him”.

(Tabaqāt Al-Hanābilah, 1/12)

Ibn Al-‘Arabī Al-Mālikī rahimahullāh: “If a man does not have a righteous wife, his affairs with her will not be settled unless part of his religion is lost & that is an observation known by experience”.

Something for us to ponder upon - food for thought.

A day is 24 hours, and let’s say:

1️⃣ We sleep for 8 hours

2️⃣ Work/education take 8/10hrs (prep, travel etc)

3️⃣ How do we spend the other 6/8 hours?

How many times do we use the excuse of being busy?

⏹️ The 5 prayers may take around 1hr

What do you do with the other 5/7hrs?

⏹️ If a day passes you and you haven’t read anything from the Qurān, what were you doing?

A week has 168 hours:

⏹️ Sleep: 7 X 8 = 56 - A third of the week spent on sleep.

⏹️ Work/education: 5 X 8 = 40 or 5 X 10 = 50

Ask yourself how much of the remaining 52/62hrs do you spend on seeking nearness to Allāh?

If we were to sit and ponder upon this, we will find that ‘I’m busy’ is not correct.

It was said about many imāms from the salaf: if they were to be informed that the hour was going to be established, they wouldn’t be able to increase in goodness. This is because their time was filled with seeking nearness to Allāh ﷻ
