The Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said: two favours (of Allah) are forgotten by many people: health and fursat (free time).


This is a true story with pictures.


It may change your life, way of thinking and aims in life. (bi’idnillah)


It is a story of a person from Bahrain named Ibrahim Nasser. He has been paralyzed completely since birth and can only move his head and fingers.

Even his breathing is done with the help of instruments

It was the wish of this young man to meet sheik Nabeel Al-Awdi. So Ibrahim’s father spoke the sheik on the phone in order to arrange a visit to Ibrahim.


The moment sheik Nabeel entered Ibrahim’s room

And this is Ibrahim’s expression on meeting sheik Nabeel

Notice the breathing instrument around Ibrahim’s neck.. he is unable to even breath normally.



..sheik Nabeel and Ibrahim started talking about da’wa on the internet and the striving it requires.


....during their conversation sheik Nabeel asked Ibrahim a question. A question that made Ibrahim weep… and tears rolled down Ibrahim’s cheek.

Well, do you know what question it was that made Ibrahim weep?


The sheik asked: Oh Ibrahim.. if Allah had given you health.. what would you have done?
And thus Ibrahim wept bitterly and he made the sheik, his father, his uncle and everyone in the room weep.. even the camera man wept.



And his answer was: By Allah I would have performed my salah (prayer) in the masjid with joy.. I would have used the favor of health in everything that would please Allah Subhanehu we Ta’ala.


Dear Brothers and Sisters Allah has favored us with agility and health!
But we do not perform our Salaah in the Masjid!!! And we sit for hours in front of the computer or TV, watching all these un-Islamic films and programs! SubhanAllah

May Allah guide us to the right path, ameen!

Ameen to your dua.
SubhanAllah, we never really know what we have until it's gone...

Narrated Mujahid: 'Abdullah bin 'Umar said, "Allah's Apostle took hold of my shoulder and said, 'Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler." The sub-narrator added: Ibn 'Umar used to say, "If you survive till the evening, do not expect to be alive in the morning, and if you survive till the morning, do not expect to be alive in the evening, and take from your health for your sickness, and (take) from your life for your death."

Jazakallah for sharing sis,

may Allah give the brother a healthy life which is devoted to His Lordship. Just look at the contentment on his face ....
 
Jazakallah khayr ...as this is such a good reminder.

Allah make the sick people...so that we appreciate our health more.
Allah make living things temporary...so that we will appreciate living.

a related hadith :

"Take advantage of five matters before five other matters: your youth, before you become old; and your health, before you fall sick; and your richness, before you become poor; and your free time before you become busy; and your life, before your death."
