Anonymous: what'd you do to please Allah today? and what will you do tomorrow if you wake up?

Assalaam Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,

In shaa’ Allah, you’re well ukhti/akhi. Please remember your salaams next time.

To answer your question, not enough. And I will never be completely satisfied with what I do daily to please Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala because it will never be enough in comparison to the infinite mercy & blessings He bestows upon me everyday.

Tomorrow I will strive harder than I have today. Each day I remind myself that there is no guarantee I will live until the next, and this is my motivation.

As Ibn ‘Umar used to advise:

“When evening comes, do not expect (to live till) morning, and when morning comes, do not expect (to live till) evening. Take from your health (a preparation) for your illness, and from your life for your death.”

[As related in Bukhari]

JazakAllah khair for sending a necessary reminder.
