Islam Vs Secular

The poet describes the modern trend of parents who teach / educate their children in secular education (which is of course necessary), but forget to educate them the morals and teachings of Islam.(taken from video description)

Preparing for Death..

Excellent talk on 'Preparing for death' by Shaykh Syed Saqib Bukhari...

Shaikh Sari Saqati (Allah have mercy on him) said,

‘He who is incapable of educating himself is even more incapable of educating others.’

Jawami’ Adab al-Sufiya, page 32

Educating here means to act on the knowledge acquired not mere awareness of the text and information alone.

Regret

Once, a group of people were traveling on rocks at night a voice came from the sky that whosoever picks up the rocks will regret and whosoever doesn’t pick up the rocks will regret. Now, the people were confused. How can this be? Whether you pick up the rocks or not, you will regret!

Anyway,some people picked up the rocks and some didn’t. In the morning when they reached their homes, they saw that the rocks turned into Diamonds. Now, those people who didn’t pick up the rocks started regretting saying “If only we had picked up some rocks.” Those people who did pick some rocks also started regretting saying “Why didn’t we pick up more rocks?” Both sides ended up regretting.

Dear Muslims, this same incident will take place with us on the Day of Judgment. Those people who spent their time in useless things will start regretting by looking at those who achieved a great position in Paradise by spending their time in the way of Allah. Now, those who did achieve a position in Paradise will start regretting by looking at those who did more than them and are higher in status.

“Alas! If we had only done more to please Allah.”
