If you start your day like this, how many good deeds will you make? How many sins will be you be saved from (by avoiding bad/futile company): ‘Bhai! This is my last day – if I’m sat here, gheebat/lying will happen – make your hisaab-kitaab proper with people. The walli’s had this concept – they never had anything extra because they though they only had one day left; this concept the prophet gave us, it estranges us from the dunya. We want to attain jannatul firdaws with this day. Then he goes to his bed: ‘Allah humma bi ismika amutu wa ahya.’ “Oh Allah your name remains, I was alive with your name, Alhamdulillah I tried completely today with the barakat of your name but even then I am a slave and must’ve made mistakes. Then the person does tawba - all the mistakes I’ve done today - whoever does tawba at bed, he gets forgiven for all the sins done today. Another dua: ‘With your name I lie down/die, with your name I wake up; now there’s no guarantee that I’ll wake up so if I die I’ve asked for forgiveness so forgive me; and if you wake me up then do me a favour and make me amongst those who protect themselves and who you protect them.’ With this programme, every day that will pass - guaranteed you’re getting jannah: Tawba, effort, rahmat is happening. We have one day and if we pass our life like this then we needn’t to worry.

Best Programme for Entry into Jannah 11/06/19
Allah knows everything and everything is in purdah – sadness accidents illness we don’t know at all. Suddenly events happen that he can’t imagine – he’s ok and suddenly he gets a scary illness. He’s healthy and goes home and there’s a strange museebat. We don’t know what will happen to us. So when we have no difficulties and healthy, we shouldn’t waste that time and use that time for preparing for akhirah. Today the time I have, I don’t know if I’ll get that time 10 mins later! Here we’re deceived. We have big big plans – we want to be pious, oh ramadhan/hajj will come and then we’ll be good, if this happens then we’ll be good – we make plans to be correct but we make that plan so vast as if we know everything. We don’t know. There was a person and he was completely healthy and was getting ready for Umrah. He went to Dr and when the Dr put a syringe in him, Dr realised he was about to die and had cancer and he never even knew and was sorting his passport out! We should at all moments, this time I have, I don’t just want forgiveness but the HIGHEST jannah- everyone gets forgiveness – as soon as we get up from zikr we’ll be forgiven, Allah is very-merciful but after the forgiveness we get a small jannah, a small jannah forever- when you have so much capacity and strength that you can make the best jannah – that’s how much time we have - but we have more certainty in dunya than akhirah. A person was in bed and had 2 days left to live and said to Hz ‘make such a dua and I promise that I’ll never leave zikr morning and evening!’ Hz saab would invite him yet he would never come. These accidents aren’t in our control - what will happen tomorrow – tomorrow is far – what will happen today? We could have an accident today. We have big plans oh l’ll get sorted out then or married etc. If we’re going somewhere e.g. driving, Allah’s given us such ‘amal/wazaaif that we can earn jannatul firdaws. Instead we’re dumb, thinking nonsense, talking to ourselves. Pray one durood and you get 70 rahmats. A big buzurg in Madeena told Hz saab: The Prophet loves “salallahu alayhi wasallam” because there’s durood and salam in this kalima. We’re driving and our thoughts are elsewhere and shaytaan is putting thoughts. We should, at all moments, make it beneficial so that not even a single moment is wasted. Allah will take accounting for all the moments he’s given us. The prophet has given us a system that we can see a 24hrs programme; everyone sleeps and wakes up and we pray ‘Alhamdulillah … nushoor.’
This dua shows us the full programme. First we begin with Alhamdulillah – we thank Allah - Alhamdulillah is a big kalimah and we pray it when we have a big ni’mat – E.G. Allah begins the Quran with this. And yet Allah is telling us to pray this kalimah when we wake up. Such a big ni’mat that when we got Quran’s nimat, we begin with Alhamdulillah and we begin namaz with Alhamdulillah for the ni’mat of sajda/rukoo. So this is such a big ni’mat, there was no gurantee of getting a new life, Allah! I’m extremely grateful for making me alive. It’s a big gratitude to Allah so we thank him … Allah’s alerting us: we wasted yesterday, it was useless - now I thank you, this your favour, you’ve made me alive again – such a big favour that Allah has given us.
“ahyaana” In one second he could’ve killed us. “Ba’da ma amaatana” – I was dead. Mawt is like unconsciousness: he doesn’t know what’s happening e.g. thief enters, raining, scorpion comes, you don’t feel hungry/thirsty etc. you’re dead. We’re thanking Allah because if I were not woken up then jahannam - my habit of gheebat/lying, missing namaz – my state was extremely dirty yet he’s woken us up. ‘Waee layhin nushoor’ – Although I’m alive now, I know well that I’ll have to die again and go to Allah and so in between now and death I need to become alert and not make the same mistakes that I had done previously. Now this day you’ve given us, my other death will come at night – in these 12/13 hours you’ve given me, it’s your shukr and I promise as I wake up that today that will pass, my whole programme, I will go alongside the balance sheet and I will take myself into account at each step: where am I making a mistake and where am I earning for akhirat. Where I make a mistake, I’ll become alert because I have 12 hours and then it’s jahannam – I don’t know if I’ll get life again and so if I make a mistake, immediately I’ll ask for forgiveness and I will do countless good deeds. I’ll consider this as my last day just like we do a lot of effort on the last day of ramadhan. This day is your last day – ask forgiveness for your previous days – do the highest ibadat to get highest jannah because ‘wailayhin nushoor’ ‘we have to go back to him.’ If you start your day like this, how many
‘O Allah, verily You have created my soul and You shall take it’s life, to You belongs it’s life and death. If You should keep my soul alive then protect it, and if You should take it’s life then forgive it. O Allah, I ask You to grant me good health.’

Bismika Rabbee wadha’tu janbee, wa bika ‘arfa’uhu, fa’in ‘amsakta nafsee farhamhaa, wa ‘in ‘arsaltahaa fahfadhhaa, bimaa tahfadhu bihi ‘ibaadakas-saaliheen.
In Your name my Lord, I lie down and in Your name I rise, so if You should take my soul then have mercy upon it, and if You should return my soul then protect it in the manner You do so with Your righteous servants. [Bukhari and Muslim]
