10 Things We Waste
- Our knowledge; by not taking action with it.
- Our actions; by committing them without sincerity.
- Our wealth; by using it on things that will not bring us reward from Allah; by wasting our money, status, and authority on things that have no benefit in this life or in the life hereafter.
- Our hearts; by lacking; (1)The love of Allah, (2)The feeling of longing to go to Him and (3)The feeling of peace and contentment. Unfortunately, instead our hearts are filled with something or someone else.
- Our bodies; by not using them to worship Allah, nor using them to further our service in His cause.
- Our love; by directing it towards someone/something other than Allah.
- Our time; by wating it; by not using it properly to compensate for that which that passed; by not doing righteous deeds to make up for past ones.
- Our intellect; by wasting it on things that aren't beneficial to us--things that are detrimental to the individual as well as the society at-large; by not being in constant contemplation and/or refection of Allah and His deen.
- Our service; by wasting it in the service of someone or something that will not bring us closer to Allah, nor benefit us in this worldly life.
- Our remembrance (of Allah); wasted because it doesn't affect us or our hearts.
