Prophet, our theme, this Ramadan, exploring the daily life of the Prophet peace be upon him. This is your host, May you and Sayyid, I am live with you, every weekday during the holy month of Ramadan, and I can't believe this is the last week. How time has flown by, so panel, I don't know, how it flew by so fast because I just remember walking into the studio the other day, and preparing for this show, and talking about it, and now we're nearly at the end of it. I pray that the loss of Hannah Te'ala accepts all our derives, our good deeds, let us not waste a minute of this precious time that we have in these blessed days and nights.

So today insha'Allah, we will focus on the afternoon of the Prophet peace be upon him. The hours between Buhar and Asah, basically like the time we are in now, and the time insha'Allah that followed. These were not ideal hours for him, they were filled with purpose, worship, they were filled

with teaching, serving people, and building community. Allah reminds us in the Qur'an, and I nearly every episode, I remind you of this ayah insha'Allah, ayah 21, indeed in the messenger of Allah you have an excellent example. Why do I remind you every time, because I think it's a great reminder to us all that the Prophet peace be upon him is an excellent example, one that inspires us, one that we should aim to be like, because to love him is to live like him. And for anyone who's just joining the show and listening to me for the first time, it is some information for you that Allah's para'ala did say, indeed in the messenger of Allah, you have an excellent example. And I pray that all of us insha'Allah aim and inspire to be like him and to live like him. The life of the Prophet peace be upon him shows us that every part of the day can be meaningful. For many of us, we think only when we pray and do our day care, then that's it, you

know, that's my worship. But we've learned during the course of the season, today we're episode 25, episode two, I believe, let me just double check the power of intention, sincerity in every action, that everything that you do in work, in your dealings with relationships, with people, with strangers in everything, SubhanAllah, there is a form of worship and some way to earn a reward as long as the intention is for Allah SubhanAllah and as well making sure that you are following in the beloved teachings and being guided by the Prophet peace be upon him. If you're interested in learning or hearing more about this episode, all our episodes that have been erred on 90.4 are all available on any of your major platforming podcasts.

Did I say that correctly? I think so. Basically, where you get your podcasts, just type love your life and insha'Allah, we shall pop up and you can listen to all the episodes that have been erred insha'Allah. So in today's episode, we reflect on how he spent his afternoon and what lessons we can apply to our own lives. Upon hearing this, makes me think of how we actually spend our afternoon. Like I know in Ramadan, it's different because of it being Ramadan, everyone's, you know, off early from work and many of you are listening to this, why do you are stuck in traffic and I pray that you reach home safely insha'Allah, but at least, you know, you have love your life to educate you and inspire you insha'Allah. But if it, you know, we have to remember that as much as love your life is on air, live during the month of Ramadan, some of you might be listening to this and we are not in the month of Ramadan. And the question still remains the same.

How do we spend our afternoon, our time granted, you know, there was no social media back then in the time the Prophet peace be upon him. And after work, you know, when we reflect what do we do once we are home, where does our time go? Most importantly, what change would you like to make? You might not know the answer to this now as you're listening to this, but insha'Allah, if you stick until the end of the episode insha'Allah, you should have your answer. At the beginning of the season, we started on how the Prophet peace be upon him started his day. So we covered from dawn until about the Fajr prayer. What does he do? Or a bit before that? We talked about the prophetic morning beginning the day with mercy and this is in liquor. And today we are focusing on the afternoon, what that looks like.

So after the whole until about asr insha'Allah. So after the whole prayer, the Prophet peace be upon him often remained in the mosque, all mistred. The companions would gather around him. They asked questions, they learned about faith, character and daily life. Yani, I can only imagine them sitting and him being with them and then learning from him, insha'Allah, Yani. It's the time that I wish many of us, I think we have the same feeling to be around the Prophet, insha'Allah, Yani, and learn from him. But Allah, Subhan'at A'ala, ordained that we be living in this time, Subhan'Allah, and we have the Qur'an and his son to follow. From a day in the life of the Prophet, insha'Allah, Yani, this is a book by, let me see the name of this author, give me a moment. Sometimes your sister comes very prepared and sometimes you just have to look for things.

And I have the author here, just give me a moment, please. I like how Ahmad Mosqueen, he always tries to help me out by increasing background music. So this book is called a day in the life of Muhammad by Abdul Wahhab, Nasr al-Turayri, and reading the name in English, so I apologise if I said the name wrong. So from this book, he talks about in detail the day of a life in the Prophet, a day in the life of a Prophet, peace be upon him. So I'm going to read a little excerpt from this book, focusing on something that he did after the prayer. So the author describes the Prophet, insha'Allah, but he would sit among his companions and guide them with wisdom and patience. So reading from the book, whenever the prayer was over, the Prophet would turn to face his companions, should they be an event or something unusual, he would address the people

after the whole prayer. As this was a time when most people were present. So this used to be something that the Prophet ﷺ did quite often. His teaching style was calm and deliberate, and this is something I mentioned in an earlier episode, but I'd like to mention it again. The Prophet ﷺ would speak clearly so that if someone wanted to count his words, they could. And this is a great reminder to interact with others, with intention, by speaking slower, being present, and giving your full attention to the person or the audience. His gatherings were not only about knowledge, they were about nurturing hearts. So Allah describes his mission in Surat Al-Jum'a, ayah 2, and let us listen to this ayah together. There's a bad idea of Allah from the Shaitan of the Prophets. The translation of that ayah is

is he is the one who raised for the illiterate people and messenger from among themselves, reciting to them his revelations, purifying them and teaching them the book and wisdom, for indeed they had previously been clearly astray. Learning was part of the Prophet's daily routine, and I want to highlight this a little bit. Always reminded when I think of this, and when I realized that this was part of his daily routine, I'm reminded by the first ayah that was revealed to the Prophet, Peace be upon him. In the name of Allah most gracious most merciful, Imam Ahmad recorded the taisha said the first thing that began happening with the messenger, Peace be upon him from the revelation was dreams that he would see in his sleep, and that would come true Subhanallah. And he would not see any dream except that he would come true like the

clear-ness of the day, break in the morning. Then seclusion became beloved to him, so he used to go to the kerf of hera, so rahr hera and devote himself to worship there for a number of nights, and he would bring provisions for that. Then he would return to Khadija and replenish his provisions for a similar number of nights. This continued until the revelation suddenly came to him when angel Gabriel descended to him while he was or appeared to him while he was in the cave of hera. The angel came to him while he was in the cave and said, Read. The messenger of Allah said, I am not one who reads. Then he said, So the angel seized me and pressed me until I could not no longer bear it. Then he released me and said, Read. So I replied, I am not one who reads. So he pressed me again a second time until I could no longer bear it. Then he released me and said,

And of course, I have to, I link everything but the ayahs that I really want to focus on just a moment. Please, and the ayah. And this is of course the first and the first ayahs. So let's read that. Let's listen to that ayah together. This is a beautiful Surah. And these were the first five ayahs that I played. I would just read the translation. So read or prophet in the name of your Lord who created, created humans from a clinging clot. Read and your Lord is the most generous who taught by the pen, who taught humanity

what they knew not. So he returned with those ayahs and with his heart trembling until he came back home to say the Khadija. And he said, the million is a million. Wrap me, wrap me. So they wrapped him up until his fear went away. Out that he told Khadija, say the Khadija, everything that happens. And here I'm sharing this because there's so beautiful reflections for us as we listen to this part of his story. Subhanallah. So then he he says, Khadija, I feel that something may happen to me. Say the Khadija replied, never by Allah, Allah will never disgrace you. You keep good relations with your relatives. You speak the truth. You help the poor and the distute. You serve your guests generously. And you help the deserving calamity afflicted people. Khadija, say the Khadija, then accompanied him to her cousin, Wuraka Ibn Nofil, and the story goes on. And I urge you to read his

because Subhanallah as you immerse yourself into learning about him and these little, yeah, any reflections that come to you are things that are supposed that we as humans, as his ummah, as his followers are supposed to do and follow. So just going back to that passage again, she describes him, you keep good relations with your relatives, which is something that we have learned over and over again as we listen to the season of guided by the Prophet. You speak the truth and we we had a whole episode dedicated to that. You help the poor and distute. You serve your guests generously. You help the deserving calamity and afflicted people. So this is all these are all little lessons, little things for us to think about. The point I wanted to highlight is how your character and education truly go hand in hand as we see in the Prophet peace be upon him. And if we think about it, as we all know the Prophet ﷺ was illiterate. The Prophet was educated

by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, how by divine revelation the Prophet peace be upon him did not acquire knowledge through study or schooling. Instead he received knowledge through divine inspiration and revelation conveyed by the angel Gabriel. Quran as a revelation, his education subhanallah consisted of reciting the Quran as it was passed to him by the angel Gabriel. The first command that we just said read, when receiving the first revelation in the cave of Hira, the Prophet ﷺ as we said earlier was commanded to read or recite to which he replied, I cannot read. This moment subhanallah highlights the belief that his knowledge was not acquired through human literacy. But there is also another reflection for us that the importance of educating ourselves reading which is something that not many of us do. I am a big fan of books. I am always trying to

read and educate myself with him the lot of lalameen. This is I think a blessing that I have. My challenge now is I don't have enough time but I am going to kind of coach myself and say if it was important for me I would make time. So you know it goes both ways. We have to make time for things that matter. For educating ourselves when it comes to our religion, when it comes to our Sira, when it comes to being good parents, when everything that we need to we are responsible for that we want to become better in, we need to dedicate time. So just moving on for those who maybe the first time you're listening and you're not a Muslim or I just want to clarify the signs of his Prophet ﷺ, his illiteracy. Subhanallah is considered to be crucial in our religion and Islam as evidence of the Quran's divine nature. It indicates that he could not have written the Quran himself or plagiarized it from prior writings. Allah SubhanAllah says in Surah Al-An-Kabboot

from verses 48 to 50. Let's listen to these ayahs together. So we start with ayah 48. You or Prophet could not read any writing even before this revelation nor could you write at all otherwise the people of falsehood would have been suspicious. So moving on to ayah 49. But this Quran is a set of clear revelations preserved in the hearts of those gifted with

knowledge and non-denies our revelation except the stubborn wrongdoers and finally the last ayah that I want to share with you with this regard. They say if only some signs have been sent down to him from his Lord say or Prophet signs are only with Allah and I am only sent with a clear warning. SubhanAllah a lot of you know things to as always to reflect on and a beautiful reminder of the purpose of the Prophet ﷺ will take a short break in Shah Allah and be right back.

After teaching people approach the Prophet ﷺ with their concerns so this would be after you know after Lahore he usually gathers around with his companions and speaks to them so after teaching people approach the Prophet with their concerns came some came with personal struggles as I would assume and others sought advice or help the Prophet peace be upon him welcome them. He listened patiently sometimes some would take him aside to discuss a private matter and he would walk with him until their need was fulfilled. Mashallah this shows humility this shows undivided attention and really caring about whoever was in front of him and making sure that their needs were met. Alays alatu wa sallam. Despite being the leader of

the community he remained accessible to everyone. He taught the most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to people and when you look at them today we kind of don't see that enough. I'm not saying it's not there it is there but we need to be more benefit and tongue twister for me today benefited to others we need to help others it's not about only my gains and what I need but also but more so sorry of what other people need how can I be of service to others the Prophet ﷺ did not measure success by status he measured it by service to others so how can we be of service to others let me know send me a message on whatsapp 7242007 7242007 all I'd love to hear from you can join me live on the show the number to call is 24602058 24602058

share with us something that you do of service and I know they are especially during the month of Ramadan there are many people who collect money and prepare Ramadan if tar you know meals to give away and I think this is a beautiful way to be of service to others and this is of course during Ramadan so what can one do even after Ramadan as I mentioned earlier the show is live every Ramadan but we hope that you listen to it go come back to these episodes as a beautiful reminder how to become a better Muslim how to get closer to Allah subhan'at ala and being guided by the Prophet peace be upon him so the afternoons of the Prophet salam alayhi salam also included moments of personal devotion so the Prophet salam alayhi salam maintained a regular voluntary prayer prayers actually and they're known as sunnah prayers so what are these 12 sunnah prayers for those of

you who are listening and I'm wondering really 12 yes they are 12 so let us just talk talk about them together so there are two rakaz before the morning prayer which is the facial prayer and there are four rakaz before the whole prayer done two and two then we pray the whole which is the fourth and then after the hall there are two more rakaz to pray and after mahrib there are two rakaz sunnah rakaz and after aisha there too so making these 12 so two four two two and two these are 12 so I reminded that we have our four of the prayers that we have to pray which is Fajr the Hore asor mahrib aisha and these are sunnah prayers so these are prayers that the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam used to perform and of course we do them because he used to do them

so you might be wondering okay if I do them what are the rewards subhan'Allah there was a beautiful so consistent performance of 12 rakaz days the one we just talked about guarantees a house in paradise so just by praying these prayers every single day consistently inshaAllah Allah will reward you with a house in paradise inshaAllah the bridge gaps in fourth prayers ensuring complete reward so subhan'Allah when you pray these sunnah prayers they are compensating for anything that any slips that you must have done or might have done in your fourth prayers that these ones you know they like compensate for them inshaAllah the sunnah prayers elevation and rank and forgiveness each prostration subhan'Allah lifts one degree and removes asin first just by doing these prayers

and wallahi they don't take a lot of time if you think about it especially if you weigh the what you're getting to what you have to do to get these things subhan'Allah we I wonder why we don't do them subhan'Allah there is something special about even more special about the the sunnah before Fejah the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam when asked he said these two rakaz before morning prayer are better than the world and everything in it specifically these two prayers before Fejah and these prayers they act as a spiritual shield for the heart and the obligatory prayer so protection from and against shaytan i.e. subhan'Allah you feel I don't know what's the word I don't know how to convey this feeding on how it feels to have prayed all these prayers at the end of the day I mean I pray that Allah subhan'Allah makes us amongst those that have millions

of houses because of us doing these prayers following the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam and ultimately by doing these things by constantly being in prayer choosing Allah subhan'Allah even though you know at this these days it feels some might feel this is too much to do this is too heavy for me but facing that and saying no it is but I'm going to do it for Allah subhan'Allah and at the beginning like everything in life everything feels difficult everything feels hard but by consistently showing up by consistently keeping the promises that you want for yourself to please Allah subhan'Allah this becomes easy so being close to Allah subhan'Allah these are the best ways to earn Allah's love and draw near to him after obligatory prayers the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam also remembered Allah throughout the day Allah subhan'Allah says

oh who you believe remember Allah with much remembrance and this is in surat al-ahizab ayah number 41 thinker the remembers of Allah subhan'Allah was woven into his daily life please be upon him even between activities and this is something that I personally try to do I don't know if you follow me for those who follow me on instagram you'd notice that I have the cure ring and this is a small electronic device like a counter and you wear it on one of your fingers and you have a button that you press and with every press of the button you remember Allah subhan'Allah to add now it is best you do it with your hands yeah and there's as well a way by looking at your fingers in the way the the back of your hand there's the each finger is

divided to three and you can also use that and remember Allah subhan'Allah but I I ask Allah subhan'Allah that I use this ring every time I see this ring and I put it on even if I'm distracted or anything and I look at this ring I remember to remember Allah subhan'Allah and the remembers of Allah subhan'Allah and it can be subhan'Allah, subhan'Allah, alhamdulillah, la ilaha ill-Allah, haduhu, laa shariq, ala meaning anything to remember Allah with la hawla wa lakouta, laa, but that constant thinker of Allah subhan'Allah, the constant remembers of Allah subhan'Allah, filling your day as you're driving as you're waiting you know in line for something instead of picking up your phone you are there remembering Allah subhan'Allah and just the fact that you're remembering Allah subhan'Allah you are elevated spiritually because you're always connected with Allah subhan'Allah such a beautiful feeling so this is my tip of the day let me know is this something that you practice

yourself how does it make you feel do you feel a change when you used to do it and not used to do it I kind of I mean once I started doing this I felt a light a lightness in my in my day I felt like you can say baraka and I'm wondering if you as well feel the same the number to call to be part of the show to let me know is 24602058 24602058 or send me a message on whatsapp the number is 724207724207 often we think worship only happens during prayer but the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam showed us that remembrance can accompany every moment and did I say this already yes it is in surat al-ahzab I mentioned the translation but we didn't listen to the ayah so let us listen to the ayah together let me check its the correct ayah yes it is

so ayudu billahi min al-shaytan al-rajim this is surat al-ahzab verse ayah 41 so believers remember Allah and I'll just I notice the next ayah is something that I also talked about so let's listen to it together and glorify him morning and evening and this is something that I talked about about at kar al-sabah wal-masa in episode can I remember what episode it is I think it was episode 8 the prophetic morning beginning the day with mercy I talked about the importance of having our atkar as a way to connect Allah subhanahu ta'ala to protect us to seek his protection

and as well to follow the sunnah of our beloved prophet peace be upon him so the kar was woven into his daily life every moment subhanAllah if it was not in prayer if it was in the kar if it was nothing the kar he was talking to people about Allah subhanahu ta'ala i mean his full day was devoted to Allah subhanahu ta'ala granted I know that our lives now are very different to what the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam used to live his life but that doesn't mean that we despite being very busy that we cannot dedicate some time to worshipping Allah subhanahu ta'ala we have no excuse we get busy doing everything but to worshipping Allah subhanahu ta'ala and even when we stand in prayer we do it like we have something else to go to that should be the time I think in contrary we should be looking for it to the time of prayer we should be rushing other things to stand in prayer in front of Allah subhanahu ta'ala to do the kar and this is something I mentioned

in Dihani and last I think last saturday it was when it came to this the kar because some people might find it you know it's a bit difficult to do and I totally understand and I pray that Allah subhanahu ta'ala makes remembering Allah easy in the light of Allah and there was something a reflection for me this I was the Bihar who Bukrattonu Asrila I noticed and I want you to notice this with me as you inshaAllah are becoming aware of your surroundings and everything the birds before like after Fajr and before sunrise the birds start tweeting or chirping yeah and the same happens between Asr and Maghrib suddenly I don't know if sometimes if you're driving in your near park or somewhere where they're trees you notice birds going twit twit twit twit twit twit chirping they are doing they are remembering Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. So when I listen to that, I reflect on

as like maya. These birds are remembering Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. What are you doing that you cannot remember Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala? So using your eyes, your ears, all your senses that Allah has blessed you with to see around you Allah's creation as a reminder to worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. So there's another tip I give you today. I have so many tips Alhamdulillah that I'm sharing today. I'd love to hear some of yours. What are your reflections? What do you feel that you can do in Sha'Allah, especially after listening to the show today. Call me on 2460205824602058 or as always send me a message on WhatsApp. The number to use is 72442007 and we'll take the short break and be right back in Sha'Allah.

Welcome back to Love Your Life. This is maya al-sa'eed as we are focusing on the afternoon with the Prophet as this season is all about being guided by the Prophet Peace be upon him. Before the break, we talked about how the cure that we should remember. We should always be in remembrance of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. That is how the Prophet sallallahu wa sallam was always in remembrance and not only in prayer if it was when speaking to people about Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

when it was him doing voluntary prayers. These are all moments of reflection for us to be like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam because as I said many times to love him is to live like him. Let me know how you what you do in your life to be like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam share anything that you have done anything that you started doing how it has changed your life. I'd love to hear from you and as always you never know how Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is going to use you and who it is going to inspire. The moment is yours. You can call me on 24602058 24602058 or send me a message on whatsapp. The number is 724207 724207. So now we reach to the point of affta asar. So the asar prayer has been called as sorry asar adhan has been called and

prayers have been done. So after asar the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam often spend time with the community. He tracked on people visited companions especially those who were ill and mashallah he had this he was always aware of who used to come to the mosque and if anyone was absent he would ask where is so and so and if he was ill or anything like that he would go and visit him. Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whoever visits a sick person continues to be in the gardens of paradise until he returns which is a beautiful way of you know making us be connected to one another again being of service you go and visit a person usually they're you know not doing what they usually do in the daily activities because they're not well so they're resting and the fact that people come to visit them makes them so happy when was the last time you visited a sick person I pray that everyone who is going through a health difficulty may Allah grant them shifa bin Allah

ta'ala and may Allah use us to ease their pain or help them in any way that we can. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam valued maintaining relationships and as I'm you know preparing for the season I learned so much about him and the importance of being service to others maintaining relationships with everybody not a specific group of people not only the believers but everybody that we meet Allah ta'ala says in surat al-Mahida ayah number two and here again may you're darling sister you you should be used to this by now you know I I try my best but there's some ayahs I miss to link but insha'Allah alhamdulillah we are blessed to be in the time of internet

where things are very fast alhamdulillah our beloved I mean so I want to focus on this this ayah is quite long in surat al-Mahida verse number two so I will just focus on this part which is the end of the ayah our beloved shatana jim wa ta'ala al-birri wa taqwa wa la ta'ala al-Ithmi wa l-Qudwan wa taqwa so corporate the translation of this is corporate without another in goodness and righteousness and do not corporate and sin and transgression and be mindful of Allah surely Allah is severe in punishment so this focuses on the importance of us serving one another and if there is a time that we have to choose between being good and not you know or making an issue bigger than the other or making it worse and you know don't do that be good choose righteousness and choose righteousness

and always try to be good with one another and help one another as the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam used to do and as Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is commanding us so the afternoon for the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam became a time for strengthening bonds strengthening bonds with one another and this is not only you know meeting up with people who usually meet up with no it is if more so meeting up with others that you don't meet up with calling on that person that you haven't spoken to a long time going to visit somebody being of service the list is endless but when we reflect on when was the last time you did it what would you say reflect on how you can be a better Muslim and if you think about it it's really not difficult to do you know what is going to take time and time is something that we don't have much of and it's something that once gone doesn't

come back so it's very important for us to really be mindful of how we spend our time who we spend our time with and what we say yes to the people there are many people annoying annoying unknown for saying yes to a lot of things but at some point you have to say no because once you're saying no to something you're saying yes to something else so you need to have a balance between and dunya just like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he's the most beautiful example as Allah's para ta'ala reminded us in the Qur'an so the afternoon became a time for strengthening bonds what do we spend our afternoons doing i know you don't have to answer me like on air but something to think about building trust when we are showing up for one another when we are communicating with one another consistently with time it builds trust and we support one another the Prophet peace be upon him

what will it be i've got a message salam alaykum sister meyer jizak yallah for the beautiful reminders you share every day about our prophets salallahu alayhi salam i wanted to share a small thought that has been on my mind many mothers and others in our community are unable to go to the mosque for tarawih some are caring for children some for elderly parents and others have different responsibilities sometimes this can be sometimes this can bring a feeling of guilt one day while i was rushing to the masjid and my sister-in-law and cousin stayed home with their children i thought why not pray together at home instead so we did we took our time were patient with children and prayed calmly subhanallah and turned into such a beautiful and peaceful experience for the mothers it reminded me of the hadith where the messenger of Allah said to ala pray tarawih and the mosque one night and people followed him when the crowds

grew he let us said nothing prevented me from coming out to you except that i feared it would be more obligatory it would be made obligatory upon you there is such wisdom in this sometimes creating a space for prayer at home can also be a way to support and include those who cannot reach the mosque masya Allah sister tafani beautiful reflection beautiful guidance that you took action upon may Allah reward you and i can imagine how how this experience will stay and have impact not only on the mothers but also the children they remember seeing their mothers pray together and they were part of it with not really part of it may Allah bless your union in sha Allah with the mothers and may Allah accept all your drowses and your prayers in sha Allah thank you so much for sharing if you also want to share you can quickly before we wrap up the number to call is 24602058 24602058 or sending a message on whatsapp 7242077242077

i reminded that the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam filled his time with meaningful acts which meaningful act are you going to start incorporating now you might not have time to join the show but it's something that i really want you to think about and as always whenever you start something start something with the intention of pleasing Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala following the prophets so nasallahu alayhi wa sallam and making dua that with this intention it's not only for now but that Allah gives you the strength to continue in sha Allah doing this until you meet Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala today we learned about what the afternoon of the prophet peace bear upon him was it was a balance of worship of knowledge of service and compassion he did not separate faith from life from daily life his example showed that every part of the day can be an opportunity for goodness Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala reminded us once again i'm reminding you indeed in the messenger of Allah

you have an excellent example the question we leave or i leave you with today is very simple how can we transform our ordinary afternoons into moments of purpose as always with every episode i like to close with the dirt so the dirt for today is oh Allah allow us to follow the example of your messenger peace be upon him fill our days with worship kindness and service to others make our time beautiful in our actions sincere and and allow us to revive the beautiful character of the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam in our homes our communities and our hearts Allah ma'amin Jazakum Allah here thank you so much for sharing this hour with me i look for it to being here again tomorrow in sha Allah on 90.4 our manifam and from me this is salam alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
