In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The life of the predecessors between words and deeds
Hope
What was said about hope is that it is an instinct in humans
Mutarrif Ibn Abdullah, may God have mercy on him, said
If I knew when my deadline would be, I would fear that my mind would go away
But God grants His servants heedlessness of death
Were it not for heedlessness, they would not have enjoyed a living and markets would not have existed among them
Urging the shortness of hope
Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, said
The thing I fear most for you are two things
Following your desires and longing hope
As for following one’s desires, it strays from the truth
As for long hope, he forgets the afterlife
Indeed, the afterlife has arrived
Except that the world has departed
And each of them has sons
So be among the children of the afterlife
And do not be among the children of the world
Today is work and there is no reckoning
Tomorrow there will be a reckoning and no work
Al-Fudayl bin Iyad, may God have mercy on him, said
But like yesterday
Today he worked
And tomorrow is hope
Some of the predecessors, may God have mercy on him, said
I never slept
So I told myself that I would wake up from it
Muhammad bin Wasi’, may God have mercy on him
If he wants to sleep, he tells his family
I entrust you to God
Perhaps it is a death from which I will not rise
This was his habit when he wanted to sleep
She was a woman of worship in Mecca, and when she went to sleep in the evening, she said:
Oh the same night is your night
There is no other night for you
So I worked hard
So if it becomes, she says
Oh the same day is your day
There is no other day for you
So I worked hard
Al-Muzani said: “Bakrni Al-Muzani, may God have mercy on him.”
If you want your prayer to benefit you, say it
Perhaps I will not pray otherwise
Some of the predecessors, may God have mercy on him, said
It is said
Whoever shortens his hope, his life becomes miserable
Sufyan said
I mean, in restaurants and clothes
On the authority of Shamit bin Ajlan, may God have mercy on him, he said:
The believer says to himself
It is only three days
Yesterday has passed
And tomorrow is hope that you may not realize
If you are one of the people of tomorrow
Tomorrow will bring provision
Without tomorrow there is only one day and one night
Many souls will be pierced therein
Perhaps you are the one who chooses it
Enough of every day's worries
Then you have burdened your weak heart
They are the years and the times
The illusion of high prices and cheapness
The illusion of winter before winter comes
They are summer before summer comes
What do you keep from your weak heart for the afterlife?
Every day decreases in order
It decreases for you and you do not grieve
And every day you are equal in your livelihood
And you don't feel sad
I gave you enough
You ask for what tempts you
No, you will be convinced with a little
Nor will you be satisfied with much
How can he not become aware of his ignorance in the world?
He was unable to be thankful for what he was in
Or how will it work for the afterlife?
He whose desire for this world is never cut off
And his hunger never stops
It is absolutely astonishing for those who believe it
In the animal house
He seeks the abode of vanity
On the authority of Ibrahim bin Nashit, he said:
Abu Zar’ah, may God have mercy on him, told me
I will tell you what I said
For anyone but you
I have not left the mosque for 20 years
So I told myself to go back to him
Some of the predecessors, may God have mercy on him, said
We are all certain of death
And we don't see him ready
We are all certain of heaven
We do not see a factor in it
We were all certain of the fire
And what we see is her frightened
It is a sign of Arjun
And what can you wait for?
Death is the first thing that comes to you
Whether God is good or good
Brothers
Walk to your Lord in a beautiful way
Slandering greed and miserliness
Abu Bakr, may God be pleased with him, said
What disease is worse than miserliness?
Omar, may God be pleased with him, was
He says on the pulpit
O people, greed is poverty
And despair is rich
If a person despairs of something
We dispensed with him
Yahya bin Moaz, may God have mercy on him, said
Two calamities that the first and the last did not hear about
In his money upon his death
It was said whatever
He said it will be taken from him entirely
And he asks about it all
Some of the predecessors, may God have mercy on him, said
If you have what God Almighty has given you
Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus
And Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon them
You don't see anything
What God gave Nimrod, Pharaoh, and Haman was restored
When will you succeed?
Banan Al-Hamal, may God have mercy on him, said
The free is the slave of what he covets
The slave is free as long as he is content
The life of the ancestor
Between words and action
