Wake
up for Fajr Salaah A
man woke up early in order to Pray the Fajr Prayer in the masjid. He
got dressed, made his ablution and was on his way to the masjid. On
his way to the masjid, the man fell and his clothes got
dirty. He
got up, brushed himself off, and headed home. At home, He
changed His Clothes, made his ablution, and was, again, on
his way to the masjid. On
his way to the masjid, He Fell again and at the Same Spot!
He,
again, got up, brushed himself off and headed home. At
home he, once again, Changed His Clothes, made
his ablution and was on his way to the masjid. On
his way to the masjid, He Met a Man Holding a Lamp.
He
asked the man of his identity and the man replied 'I Saw You Fall Twice on
your way to the masjid, So
I Brought a Lamp so I can Light Your Way.' The
first man thanked him profusively and the two
where on their way to the masjid. Once
at the masjid, the first man asked the man with the
lamp to come in and pray Fajr with him. The
second man refused. The
first man asked him a couple more times and, again,
the answer was the same. The
first man asked him why he did not wish to come in and pray. He
man replied I
am Shetaan(devil/ evil) The
man was shocked at this reply.
Shetan
went on to explain, 'I
saw you on your way to the masjid and
it was I who made you fall. When you went home, cleaned
yourself and went back on your way to the masjid, Allah
forgave all of your sins. I
made you fall a second time, and even that did
not encourage you to stay home, but
rather, you went back on your way to the masjid. Because
of that, Allah forgave all the sins of
the people of your household . I
was AFRAID if i made you fall one more time, then
Allah will forgive the sins of the people of your village, so
I made sure that you reached the masjid safely..'
So do not let
Shetan benefit from his actions. Do
not put off a good that you intended to do as you
never know how much reward you
might receive from the hardships you encounter while
trying to achieve that good. If
forwarding this message will bother you, or take too
much time from you, then don't do it, but you will not get
the reward of it, which is great. Imagine, that
when you forward this, you receive 240 good deeds, and
so will I for sending it to you! Wouldn't it be easy just to Press
Forward ' and receive this Reward? May
Allah (Subhana Ho Wataallah) grant us a perfect Muslim Heart n we all
do Prayers with our Heart and Soul... .............
