Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: What is the lesson we draw from the passing of days, months, and years, and what is the lesson in that?
Answer:
Allah has made the passing of days and months for great purposes. Among them is that the Muslim worships Allah in these times and utilizes them in obedience to Allah the Exalted. Another is that he takes heed of the speed with which night and day pass, and he takes heed of this, realizing that the entire world follows this pattern, that it passes and vanishes. By this, he remembers the speed with which the world vanishes and the speed of his own life, so he repents to Allah the Exalted and makes up for his lost time. Yes.
