Simple Q.
There are different elements/factors in life, such as Family, Faith (karma, morality), Finance, Health, Citizenry (Nationalism, Patriotism), and Pleasure (relax, "personal time", etc.).
I want to know in which order those come, and which three are most important. So let's get started.
By the way: If this is too personal, then just list the most or least important factor.

Hmmm, very anti-My Order:giggling:
I'm about Faith, Family, and [mental] Health, the others don't matter. Reply

I don't care about finance and citizenry at all. I just put them there because I wanted to put all aspects down.

Heres my order,
1. Faith - Islam, Allah, and Prophet's teachings are the most important to me than anything.
2. Finance - You need money in order to provide for the family and other significant stuff and your health(but for me health is free in Canada :D but im generalizing) or anything else.
3. Health - You need a healthy body, physically and mentally to do be able to do something.
4. Family - Now with the first 3 things in good, then its family and making sure the wife is happy :D .
5. Pleasure - With all four are in good, then the personal stuff comes in :) .
6. Others - With all the five done, then time to do crazy stuff (go travelling in a car and waste gas)
So it may sound bad, but let's face the reality, you need money and faith to do be able to take care of yourself and family and pleasure and others stuff

No offense to the poster or anyone else but with these sort of questions everyone would be tempted to answer with a good answer, but if were honest does faith really come first in our lifes or have we just joined in and trying to please others, If i were to say faith I'd be a hyprocrite cause thats not the case at the moment but inshallah the situation will change.

Faith (karma, morality),
Family,
Finance,
Health,
Pleasure (relax, "personal time", etc.).
Citizenry (Nationalism, Patriotism), I am a muslim, who holds a british passport(by birth), but I am not a nationalist.
Here you have to define what you mean by nationalism.

I'm pretty sure that for most people, faith comes first by far. God has the power to take away your family, fortune, good health, and anything else if you do not comply with his rules or have FAITH in him.
And plus, most Muslims, if given the opportunity, would sacrifice their family for Allah. I'm sure the same goes for Christians and Jews. Reply

True but what I ment is does it come first do we put everything else on hold to accomodate 'Faith' this isn't aimed at anyone here but i'll say one thing actions speak louder then words.

"Looks" and physical health are close enough to be in the same category, and a word of sentimental advice; don't worry about looks, because all your hard work and excessive make up and time in the gym will deteriorate in a few short decades. Reply

I think saying why these things are important would make it a more interesting/inspirational read inshaAllah.
My order
1) Allah & deen/ striving to be a good muslimah - cuz I love and want to please my Creator.
2) My son (his happiness/wellbeing, islamic education & moral teachings)
3) Money, health & family (family not priority as all have own lives. Health - so I can look after my son and work. Money - to provide for him, his education and spend in the way of Allah on family & the needy.
4) Welfare of the Ummah - To actively raise awareness of Islam, inshaAllah.
5) Privacy - Time alone! A big big issue for me. I get stressed/cranky if I am surrounded by people all the time. :offended:
