Transforming knowledge into ACTION

Nov 28, 2016

Brothers and sisters, LET ME EMPHASISE why DOING these exercises are SO important.

This is what makes what you are learning real.

It's about transforming knowledge into ACTION.

And that is essential, because Allah will ask us about how we acted on what we knew!

Please make sure you do the exercises. Even if they seem hard..then it's even more important you do them!

Now something about the RAW...random act of willpower

To help you choose something its good to know why your doing it. What's the objective.

Simply put, its about making you PAUSE and think and reflect. It's about being MINDFUL, thinking and considering your actions instead of just running on zombie mode, just doing everything out fo habit.

So the best thing is to choose something you do throughout the day.

For example: How do you sit? Change it! Just for fun, and actually I suggest you MAKE IT FUN :)

Is there something you can add to your life, something nice...how about forcing yourself to SMILE every time before you speak!

or

making sure you always say thank you three times..just for fun..thank you, thank you, thank you..jazakhallah khair!

Actually the SUNNAH is full of things that make you PAUSE and PLAN and think about what you are doing..

DUA:

  • before you do in the bathroom and when you come out,
  • when you get into a car
  • when you eat or drink, after you have eaten
  • When you have SEX...yes, even then you remember Allah.
  • When you go to sleep
  • When you get up from sleep
  • when you come into your house
  • and go out
  • into the mosque
  • and go out
  • into the market place

there are so many examples.

All of this helps make you PAUSE, and THINK and most importantly remember Allah.

It helps turn everything you do in something you get rewarded for.
