    Well, journals and diaries are usually kept for reflecting back on what you've done and also just writing down all your thoughts to yourself. Well personally, I'm afraid of what the future holds I'd rather it play out by itself than write down what I hope will happen. Allah is the best of planners. It takes sabr to write down your thoughts on to a booklet and it takes the same sabr to plan out what you hope will happen in the future. Just don't think too much.

    That's not necessarily a bad thing you know. We do have to be careful to make sure we don't sin

    Exactly. I know someone who doesn't want to work in a store, as he might have to 'handle' alcohol, but doesnt pray their daily prayers. Please.

    So a person who neglects Salaah should not abstain from other sins?

    Thanks for the clarification.

    Could do both i.e. take care of your present state as well as write down stuff for the future.

    Like someone else said, its just a way of organising your time. People who work find a diary useful. Especially those who forget easily.
    Keeping a diary- haram?

    ...I wonder at the one who extends his right hand
    To his beloved at the time of seperation and he hastens therein!
    I felt weak and incapable of saying farewell when I saw him
    So my heart shook his hand whilst my eye wept....

    I've heard a few local scholars say its not permissable to sell alcohol, so perhaps this is why the brother feels uncomfortable handling it?

    Abstinence, is a good deed, but the thing you are abstaining from is a sin. So in essence, you'd be getting reward by saving yourself from sin. This is what I meant, if a person has been told such and such a thing is impermissable, they stay away from it, perhaps not for the reward, but maybe for fear of the sin. At least the person has some fear of Allaah, and maybe Salaah is something they are working on. Its not easy to turn into a fully fledged shaykh overnight, don't be so quick to judge is all I'm saying.

    according to some mujtaahids they say that if you work in the west and apply for a job in a place which sells majority halaal and some haram then ur working there is valid.

    however i prefer to avoid it, and stay safe from it.... mayb if im completely desperate... may Allah protect me from such a state

    Well anyway can we get back on the right topic........
    the question is about stuff your planning to do in the future, like later on that day, next week next month etc...

    And fo the record, if we dont change the small (haram) stuff, then they lead to the big (haram) stuff!
