Investing Time in the Obedience of Allah

Question:
A questioner says: A long time passes for a person in his day, so what is the best way, in your view, Honorable Shaykh, to invest that time?

Answer:
Yes, time is precious without a doubt. One invests it in the remembrance of Allah and in the obedience of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and in what benefits him in matters of his religion and his worldly life. He does not waste time in anything of no benefit. He says, "I kill time," and he occupies himself with play, amusement, and heedlessness, saying, "I kill time," as if time were his enemy, when it is actually his capital. Indeed, man is in loss except those who have faith and do righteous deeds. After swearing by the time, the Exalted, because it is the time for action, [they] had faith and did righteous deeds, and they enjoined one another to truth, and they enjoined one another to patience. The Muslim utilizes his time, his life, and his existence in the obedience of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) before it is too late. Yes.
