A Standing HERE for The Standing THERE

šŸƒIbn al-Qayyim said:


"Every individual must stand before Allaah TWICE:


1ļøāƒ£ When he stands before Him in PRAYER and


2ļøāƒ£ When he stands before Him on the DAY he MEETS Him.


Whoever stands before Him as he SHOULD' in the first setting, then the second standing will be made EASY for him.

But whoever is HEEDLESS with regard to this standing, and does not stand before Him (in prayer) as 'he should', that standing (on the Day of Resurrection) will be made difficult for him."

(al-Fawaaā€™id)


šŸŒ· Subhaan Allaah!

Let us read the advice again carefully.


Notice the words "as he should".


Here ibn al-Qayyim does not say "the one who does not stand in front of Allaah (in prayer) AT ALL".


Rather, he uses the words "as he should", showing that he's not even talking about the person who does not pray at all.


He's talking about the person who does actually pray;

only he doesn't pray with the proper concentration and awareness that's required for prayer.

Then that heedlessness will be a cause of trouble for that person when he stands in front of Allaah on the Day of Judgment.

May Allaah protect us.


šŸŒ·Action time!

Come on, my brothers and sisters!

Let us act upon what we learn.


Let us make ā€œthatā€ standing easy upon ourselves!


- FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS on that prayer so that your ULTIMATE STANDING can be easy.


- Clear your mind of distractions.


- Slow down, in your recitation and in your movements.


- Reflect on the meanings.


- Pray in good time; not at the last moment.


- Pray as if it's your last prayer.


Make ā€˜THISā€™ standing GOOD, so ā€˜THATā€™ standing will be good too! šŸ§”


I ask Allaah to make our Standing in front of Him EASY. Ameen.
