Ramadhan desserts ( part 21)


Ramadhan desserts ( part 21)
ابو حنظلة محمد زهري
d) priority in our life 
We had not make the Quran the most priority in our life. We put all our effort , wealth and time to learn all the things in this world except the Quran. We never had intention or put an effort to learn the language it was revealed, learnt the stories in it, the parables that been put forth, the warnings and glad tidings in it. In fact some talibil ilm( seeker o knowledge) are also guilty of it in some extend. We learnt all the intricate matters in fiqh, seerah, Hadith but we forgot the main source of the Deen, Quran! 
3) وَعَلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ
and in their Lord do they trust
The 3rd character is tawakkul that is sole reliance to Him. We put all our affairs and matters to Him, asking Him for help for all the matters of this world or hereafter. المخلوق لا ينفع و لا يضر الا بإذنه
All things are in His hands. That's why in one of the doa that the prophet saw taught us to recite every morning and evening is
يا حي يا قيوم برحمتك أستغيث أصلح شأني كله ولا تكلني الى نفسي طرفة عين
Ya hayyu ya qayyum! With your mercy I ask for your help /invoke /appeal. Reform / correct all my matters and do not leave me to myself for a blinking of eye (moment)
4) يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ keep up prayer
Iqamat solat means more than just performing the daily prayers 5x. When the word iqamah was used for solat, it means guarding it well at its early times, taking care of the actions and recitations in it, with congregation (for male)and many more. Even straightening the sof in jamaah is included as the prophet saw sometimes say before the prayer
(شرح النووي على مسلم) قال: 
وَقَدْ ثَبَتَ فِي الصَّحِيح أَنَّ رَسُول صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "اِعْتَدِلُوا فِي الصُّفُوف فَإِنَّ تَسْوِيَة الصَّفّ مِنْ إِقَامَة الصَّلاة". مَعْنَاهُ وَاَللَّه أَعْلَمُ: مِنْ إِقَامَتهَا الْمَأْمُور بِهَا فِي قَوْله تَعَالَى: {وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلاة}، ... وَاَللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ .
Imam nawawy said that it is established in the sohih that the prophet saw said' straighten your sof verily straightening of sof is part of iqamatis solah.
