Balancing your life is something important. Sometimes during the month of Ramadan, we tend to do more of one thing, neglecting our other duties. For example, because of the importance given to acts of worship, such as prayer, such as reading the Quran, such as the dhikr and the remembrance of Allah, such as going out to help people who are in need.
Sometimes we neglect our own family members. Sometimes we neglect our duties that are primary. This happens even outside of Ramadan, where the balance we strike between family life, the work we have to do, and the worship of Allah. These three things connected are all actually the worship of Allah.
Because if you take a look at the meaning of the worship of Allah, to lead your life in a way that is in the obedience of Allah and not in transgression of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala. That is called worshiping Allah.
The balance that we strike when we speak about the three things, the worship of Allah, the work that we have, and the family life; In essence, it’s mainly these two things. the family life and the work, on condition that we make sure we don’t miss out that which Allah has ordained, like your prayer and everything else.
All of it should be within what Allah Almighty has taught.
