[i:559396182c]She complains and says:[/i:559396182c]
I don’t know why my relatives visit my sisters more,
But when time comes to visit me few of them turn-up,
They visit my other four sisters daily,
However when my turn comes I see only a few,
There are some I don’t see for days and days,
And some I hardly ever see,
As if I have been erased from their memory,
And some when they come they are sooooo lazy and lethargic,
Their excuses are totally not acceptable,
What can I do to them???,
I am the most generous to those who come to me,
I am not accusing my sisters of any shortcomings,
But everybody knows that I am more generous,
Many advice my relatives to come to me for there is so much good in it,
However still few of them turn-up!!!!!!!!, [/color:559396182c]
[b:559396182c]I wonder what the problem is????!!!!!! [/b:559396182c]

Yes it’s ((Fajr))!
<span>Fajr Prayer [/color:559396182c]</span>
<span>It’s complaining about the neglect of so many Muslims. </span>
<span>What is meant by relatives are the Muslims who come to Fajr to get closer to Allah, </span>
<span>It’s noticed that today many are lazy on performing this prayer, and some did not perform it on time for quite a long time now. </span>
<span>Not only that but some get up, go to work and then perform it there. </span>
<span>For them it became a habit and not a form of worship, </span>
<span>They forgot the blessings that are in it, lets look and ponder on what our beloved prophet peace be upon him said about the 2 Rakah’s that are before Fajr : </span>
<span>Book 004, Number 1573: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]“'A'isha reported Allah's Messenger as saying: The two rak'ahs at dawn are better than this world and what it contains.”[/b:559396182c] Narrated by Muslim. </span>
<span>If this whole world and all it contains equals nothing in the eye of the prophet peace be upon him compared to those 2 Rakah’s, how about Fajr prayer itself? </span>
<span>We must really stop on this!!!!! </span>
<span>This prayer is so great that the night and morning angels attend it: </span>
<span>In the Quran it says (meaning): </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]“and the morning prayer and reading: for the prayer and reading in the morning carry their testimony.”[/b:559396182c] Surah Al-Isra verse 78 </span>
<span>The prophet peace be upon him gave glad tidings, in the hadith Reported by Al-Tirmidi, Abu Dawood, and Ibn Majah: </span>
<span>Book 2, Number 0561: </span>
<span>Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]"The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Give good tidings to those who walk to the mosques in darkness for having a perfect light on the Day of Judgment." [/b:559396182c]</span>
<span>There is one more reward for the ones who attend Fajr prayer in addition to this complete light, however this reward is not a worldly one but one that is way higher and loftier than this. It’s the goal that every Muslim craves for, it’s what the worshippers worship for, it’s paradise and what winning trade is better than paradise. The prophet(pbuh) said: </span>
<span>Book 004, Number 1326: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]“Abu Bakr* reported on the authority of his father that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: He who observed two prayers at two cool (hours) would enter Paradise.”[/b:559396182c] Narrated by Muslim. </span>
<span>Those 2 are the Fajr and Asr prayers. </span>
<span>Furthermore our prophet(pbuh) gives a promise of safety from the hell fire: </span>
<span>Book 004, Number 1324: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]“He who observed prayer before the rising of the sun and its setting, i. e. the dawn prayer and the afternoon prayer, would not cater the (Hell) fire.”[/b:559396182c] Narrated by Muslim. </span>
<span>Moreover wouldn’t you like to be under the protection of the All Mighty may He be glorified exalted. </span>
<span>Our beloved prophet peace be upon him said: </span>
<span>Book 004, Number 1381: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]Jundab b. 'Abdullah reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: He who prayed the morning prayer (in congregation) he is in fact under the protection of Allah. And it can never happen that Allah should demand anything from you in connection with the protection (that He guarantees) and one should not get it. He would then throw him in the fire of Hell.”[/b:559396182c] Narrated by Muslim </span>
<span>Do you want for your self to be wicked????? We seek refuge in Allah!. </span>
<span>Our beloved prophet peace be upon him warned us against becoming wicked he said: </span>
<span>Book 004, Number 1702: </span>
<span>[b:559396182c]Abu Huraira transmitted it from the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him): When any one of you goes to sleep, the devil ties three knots at the back of his neck, sealing every knot with:" You have a long night, so sleep." So if one awakes and mentions Allah, a knot will be loosened; if he performs ablution two knots are loosened; and if he prays (all) knots will be loosened, and in the morning he will be active and in good spirits; otherwise we will be in bad spirits and sluggish in the morning."[/b:559396182c] Narrated by Muslim </span>
<span><span>To all those who abandoned it [/size:559396182c]</span></span>
<span><span>I will say to you that you have made yourself subject to the wrath and hate of Allah (swt), so watch for yourself before death comes suddenly without your knowledge, and before you find yourself saying: </span></span>
<span><span>[b:559396182c]“'Ah! Woe is me!- In that I neglected (my duty) towards Allah………….”[/b:559396182c] Surah Al-Zomer verse 56 </span></span>
<span><span>[b:559396182c]“'If only I had another chance, I should certainly be among those who do good!'”[/b:559396182c] Surah Al-Zomer verse 58 </span></span>
<span><span>So save yourself from the from the sea of whims to the right path and look for the means that will help you attend this obligatory prayer. </span></span>
<span><span>[i:559396182c]Lastly here are the means in short:[/i:559396182c] </span></span>
<span><span>1-Your intention should be faithful for Allah only, and you should have full determination and firm will to get up for Fajr prayer. </span></span>
<span><span>2-Keep away from staying up late and sleep early whenever you can. </span></span>
<span><span>3-Seek the help of your mother, father, brother, sister or neighbor ,or alarm clock to wake you up. </span></span>
<span><span>4-Always remember the importance of purity and reading the adkar that our prophet taught us to say before sleep. </span></span>
<span><span><span>Oh Allah I have conveyed the message so bear testimony. [/color:559396182c]</span></span></span>
