🏵️🏵️ In Islam, we are reminded that time is a gift from Allah (SWT) that we must utilize wisely. The Quran states, “By time, indeed, mankind is in loss…” (Quran 103:1-2), urging us to reflect on our actions and intentions, for each moment is an opportunity to draw closer to our Creator.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of making the most of our time by saying, “Take advantage of five opportunities before five others: your youth before your old age, your health before your sickness, your wealth before your poverty, your free time before your busy time, and your life before your death” (Ibn Majah). This guidance calls us to actively engage with our time, prioritizing our spiritual growth and sincere reflection.
As you, Sandra, explore the shifting sands of time, consider how each moment can enrich your life and enhance your connection with Allah (SWT). Your insights can inspire others to appreciate the significance of time in their lives.
Thank you, Sandra, for igniting this conversation about time and its importance. How will you choose to utilize your precious moments moving forward?
