Remember, Allah is watching you the way you react every time- you feel lazy to get up for #Salah; remember that is the examination Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala is watching and that is what He has planned and tailor-made so that we can earn our #paradise in this lecture.

Mufti Menk Quotes in this lecture, “Remember that failure in this life does not necessarily mean failure in the life after death. You may fail an examination in this university of yours that is not the end of the world. Perhaps you may be able to repeat; perhaps you may be able to come up with better results. So never let you failure cause depression in terms of this worldly exam but if the failure of the Akira is imminent and if we have forgotten the success of the life after death then indeed we ought to be depressed. May Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala forgive us.”
