Signs of a Blessed Life
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. How does a person know that his life is blessed, or know the opposite, Shaykh Salih?
The Shaykh:
He knows that by his current state.
The presenter:
O Allah, send blessings.
The Shaykh:
So if he finds in himself joy in obeying Allah and engagement in the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), that is a sign of the blessing in his life. And if he finds in himself the opposite of that, that is a sign of the lack of blessing in his life. If he is wasting the obedience of Allah and occupied with what does not benefit him, that is a sign of the lack of blessing in his life. The result is that the quality of the work, whether good or evil, harmful or sinful, all of that indicates the blessing of life or the lack of its blessing.
