Question:
Honorable Shaykh, meaning in the succession of years and months, and the passing of these days, there are lessons and morals. What is the most prominent of these lessons that the believer should take heed of?

Answer:
Allah the Exalted said:

⁽¹⁹⁰⁾ 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. ⁽¹⁹¹⁾ Who remember Allah while standing or sitting or [lying] on their sides and give thought to the creation of the heavens and the earth, [saying], "Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing]; then protect us from the punishment of the Fire.

إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلَافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ لَآيَاتٍ لِّأُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَىٰ جُنُوبِهِمْ

[Ali 'Imran 3:190-191]

the last verses. So there is no doubt that in the passing of the nights

And it is He who has made the night and the day in succession for whoever desires to remember or desires gratitude.

وَهُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ خِلْفَةً لِّمَنْ أَرَادَ أَن يَذَّكَّرَ أَوْ أَرَادَ شُكُورًا

[Al-Furqan 25:62]

, and the remembrance of Allah, seeking forgiveness, and supplication in the mornings and in the evenings, is a required matter at the beginning of the day, at the beginning of the night, in the hours of the night, in the hours of the day. It is required of the Muslim to remember Allah, to seek forgiveness, and to supplicate at all times, and praise be to Allah. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
