Importance of Time in Islam
There is a popular saying "Time is Gold." Time in Islam is more than Gold or any precious material thing in this world. From all the religions, only Islam guides mankind not only to the importance of time but also how to value it. Allah the Almighty and His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), very clearly tell us the value of time, why we must not waste it and how we can make use of our time wisely to increase our Eeman (Faith) and thus attain success, especially eternal success in the life hereafter.
Both the Quran and the Sunnah enjoin Muslims to be conscious of time. We are reminded that life in this world is nothing but temporary. We never know when death has been appointed for us. We must value time for the satisfaction of Allah the Almighty. For our guidance and success, we must never waste time nor abuse it.
Agreed, there are certainly blessings to be gained whenever we place Allah (His remembrance) in our time - plans, activities and relationships. Commencing everything we do with Bismillah Hir Rahman Nir Raheem could lead to easy tasks with bountiful rewards. The first revelation of the Quran was “Iqra’ bismi Rabbika” Recite in the name of your Lord – (Surah al-‘Alaq 96:1). Students may find this as something rewarding when applied with their studies. A person may find that their job tasks flows easier, before a communication (written/verbal) it might become more beneficial. It is written in the first chapter of the Quran and thus thereby significant.
