Return your life to the path of Allah.
Some people will laugh at you, some people will tell stories about you, and some people will write novels about you. When do you know that when you continue to act the way you are, you are doing something and suddenly a friend of yours comes to you and says, let's go out for a walk. Your work is much more important. Now what will you do? Will you go out with your friend or will you give importance to your work? Although the matter is very critical, but still you have to choose one of the paths. If I am asked this question, I will say that first I will give importance to my work. And if you have a good friend, he will definitely say, first you finish your work and then we will go for a walk. And if your friend never wants your success, then he will give you stars to go for a walk.
Life is like a round mirror, wherever you look, your face will be visible, but to bring a bright ray of light into that face, you must follow the path of Allah. Many of us say that our face is becoming ugly day by day, our face is becoming ugly, the dirt is disappearing from our face. If you look at the reasons behind this, you will find the answers to these questions yourself. First of all, in the present time, most people forget to pray, most people forget to read the Quran, most people only like to run after money. I know how important it is to earn money in our life. If a person does not have money in his life, he can never become a marriage for everyone. If you do not have money, you cannot be a good son-in-law in your in-laws' house. If your husband does not have money, you cannot be a good wife in your in-laws' house.
If you don't have money, you won't be a good child to your parents, you won't be a good brother or sister to your siblings. You will have money for this, but I think that in addition to earning money, it is very important to earn some income for the afterlife. Money will meet your needs in this world, but have you ever thought about who will meet your needs in the afterlife? It's amazing how much we humans change. We say one thing in our mouths and say another thing in our actions. The muezzin is calling you to pray all around. Come and pray. You are a businessman. You were preparing to close your shop and go to pray. Suddenly, a customer came in front of you and said, "Brother, I need some goods worth 50,000 taka. Give them to me." Now, what will you do? Go to pray or give me the goods worth 50,000 taka. I will tell you that you talk to a brother and tell him that if you can be patient until I pray, then wait.
And you also come to pray with me, I will definitely give you the things you need after finishing the prayer. If he is a Muslim, he will definitely participate in your prayer call. And if he is of the traditional religion and if he has the strength to fear Allah in his heart, he will say, I am waiting for you. You go and pray. And if there is a person in your heart, you will think in your heart, I will first sell goods worth 50 thousand taka and then I will go and pray. There is no problem even if you pray. Let me tell you one thing. Pray during the prayer and you will see that blessings will come to your livelihood. You will see that where you used to sell 50 thousand taka, you will see that because of praying, you will be able to sell things worth one lakh taka. The importance of prayer is the most important thing in life. The more you become a servant of Allah, the better you will be in this world.
One of the best ways to be good in this world is to pray. When the muazzem says on the microphone at Fajr, "Assalatu Khairum Minan Naun," what does this mean? Prayer is greater than sleep. You are sleeping. Sleep is in your eyes, but you can hear the muazzin calling you on the microphone. In the case of those who pray constantly, you will see that no matter how much sleep they are in, they automatically wake up during Fajr prayer. Do you understand that because that person prays constantly, but Allah Ta'ala has created a different feeling in his mind that whenever the call to prayer is heard, he runs for prayer. How beautiful is this person's life? Many people say that life is not beautiful when you follow the path of truth. You know when life will be beautiful. When you pray, when you give more importance to yourself in the path of Allah, when you follow the path shown by the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), you will see that no matter how many obstacles come in life, you will definitely be able to be good.
A Muslim or a person always tries to make his son or daughter a human being, whether his son or daughter is a doctor or an engineer, I have no problem with that. You want to make your son or daughter a great doctor or a great engineer, that's good, but I will tell you one thing, whatever you do, at least try to teach your son or daughter the Quran. Try to teach them what is needed to be a good person. Teach them how to respect people and how to talk to helpless people. The right education for life can be found in the Quran. When some books are released in the market, you will see that they do well in the market for a year, two years or three years, and then those books are no longer available in the market because you know, the demand for these books has decreased a lot.
But if you look at our Quran, its respect that it has had since 1400 years ago will remain in the same place until the Day of Judgment. Therefore, if you want to live well in life and do good, then definitely dedicate your life to the path of Allah. Someone can live well in this world. You will have to suffer a little in this world. The road you are building for the hereafter will become the right path for you to go to heaven. So I would say that whatever you do in life, at least try to give your child the right education and give him the right guidance. As your life will change, your child's life will also change. Maybe you will suffer first, then gradually everything will be fine. Just wait for the right time. Time is a teacher that gives us the biggest lesson in our life.
