Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude this session with a question from one of the brothers, who asks about the lessons drawn from the passage of days, months, and years for the Muslim.
Answer:
The lessons are many. Among them is that a person should take heed of the passage of nights and days, their regularity, and their speed; he should be mindful of himself and hasten to do good deeds, lest the time pass and his term arrive while he is negligent, or while he is in sin, in which case he should hasten to repent. When he looks at the speed with which nights and days pass, he should realize the nearness of his term and repent to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Also, the passage of nights and days indicates the power of Allah; it indicates the power of Allah,[Ali 'Imran 3:190] as signs and admonitions.

Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day are signs for those of understanding.
إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلَافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ لَآيَاتٍ لِّأُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ
