I have this problem, im so glad i saw this video walhamdulilah. For me its like a disease of constantly overcompensating to where i burn out. And i still feel guilty. Its the same with my life/work balance.
may Allah help you! remember, even if you're not reaching all your goals all the time, Allah knows deep down how much you do. i have the exact same problem! may Allah help you in your journey to inner peace. like Omar Suleiman said, there's a time for this, and a time for that. Allah will not punish you if you're not remembering Him all the time. may Allah make this coming Ramadan blessed for all Muslims, and a means of peace for your soul and heart. may Allah bless you, grant you peace, and help you settle on reasonable goals to remember Him. may Allah reward you, and increase you in your knowledge!
The Prophet saws said : "No one overburdens themselves with the religion (going to extreme with religion) except that the religion will defeat him. " He (saws) actually advised us to go moderately, because we don't want to be among the people who used to do something but can't anymore. The best deed to Allah is not the big, extravagant one, it's the one that is consistent. Abu Bakr Siddiq gave all of his wealth for the sake of the deen, same of Omar Ibn Al Khattab and Muhammad saws praised that. However, the Prophet saws stopped people for giving all of their wealth because it is such an unreasonable standard. Abu Tal'ha wanted to give his best garden after knowing that we should give what is beloved to us, but the Prophet saws said it would be better if you kept it for your family.
May Allah reward you with immense good for this beneficial advice and may He make your institute a beacon of hope for those who struggle in their faith and beacon of light for other Islamic Institutes that are emerging. Ameen.
Masha Allaah, your series on faith revival has been enlightening and wonderful. This video was for me from Allaah and I see things better. Jazakillaahu khairan for this. May almighty Allaah preserve you, your family and team upon good. Ameen. may we all be reunited in Al-jannah firdaws.
Exactly, after i returned to Allah, because of my past sin, i know i had so many things to catch up, i over exaggerated in ibadah until almost faint and got sick several times. 🤣🤣🤣 Now that i recall that and listen to this, i had face palm..
Jazakallahukhair this is really awesome, practical advice! I think there is a particular tendency to become over-zealous in faith after having performed hajj/umrah or some other awesome religious undertaking. I am so grateful that one of the first things I did after returning from hajj was to listen to Sh. Omar Suleiman's talk last year post-hajj which emphasised setting those reasonable goals and working your way up. It is SO true that we feel a sense of defeat after failing to reach unreasonably lofty goals and I need to be better at identifying what is reasonable for me. Ameen to your duas and may Allah swt make us all of the righteous.
Olloh rozi bo'lsin 🤲🤲
Alhamdulillah... exactly the advice I need...
"Leave the sin immediately and build your good deeds gradually " ...that's profound ...
