Syabab.Com - I want to share a light story that I have ever heard and I will always remember because its meaning is so deep. A story of one high priest of the Muslims, Imam Ahmad bin Hambal. His son, Abdullah, one day asked his father: "Abi, when we relax?" His father, the great scholar who always turn on the Sunnah and example for all Muslims, he face his son's eyes and said: "... along with our first step in heaven."
Subhanalloh ..., a beautiful answer!
In our life there are days which is very tiring, we just want to sleep and relax and forget all the work. When that's exactly when you need to ask yourself, "Where will I take this life?" If the answer is to Allah and only Allah, then gather the strength and continue your work, to reach Heaven are very valuable and should be sought.
But when looking into your life, and realize the fatigue is not for Allah, but only for the life of the world. So fatigue is a blessing, because it is a reminder for you to change direction and renewed purpose in life.
I also like the way the boy started his question: "Abi" - how sweet to submit to her father, and asked: "When do we relax?" If you notice, he did not say, "when did I relax my father?" Although he wanted to relax?, He is not selfish and also weigh the circumstances of his father.
It also shows that fathers and children alike are working hard. Once again, when your focus is Heaven, then it will be reflected in your family, children, and people around you and everyone is getting towards that goal.
Actually our problem is not fatigue per se, but because of our desire to relax too much.
What if we begin to change the orientation of this life, work whole-body and soul to reach the blessing of Allah SWT. When was tired, so relaxed we are with tahajud sunnah prayer, or go to the mosque and read the Koran there. So the whole time we are productive in the way of Allah.
When our children ask: "Abi, when we relax?", You can smile and looked into his eyes and then said softly: "When we're in Heaven dear ..., Insha Allah."
