Description: The Prophet’s (s.a.w.s.) Recommendation To Hasten To Do Good Deeds Without Procrastination Nor Laziness, Before Involvement With Concerns And Unforeseeable Obstacles:
It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (radiy-Allahu-anhu) that the Prophet (sallellahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Hasten to good deeds before seven [deadlines]!
1. Are you waiting for poverty to make you oblivious?
2. Or wealth to turn you into an oppressor?
3. Or debilitating illness?
4. Or hoary senility?
5. Or sudden death?
6. Or the Antichrist (Dajjal) – what a loathsome wait!
7. Or the Hour [of Resurrection]? Indeed, the Hour is hardest to bear and most bitter!”
[Al-Tirmidhi narrated it and declared it hasan, while al-Hakim declared its chain sahih as stated in al-Mundhiri’s Targhib and in Fayd al-Qadir.]
