from the sleep of heedlessness. We still have grace [i.e. time]. Seizing the opportunity, we should get busy obeying Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and His Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in case it becomes harder for us to perform good deeds.
The Greatest and Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has already identified the time when it will be very difficult to act upon Sunnah, to remain steadfast in religion and to bear hardships in this path. Mentioned here are two sayings of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in this regard. Listen to them and strive to follow Quran and Sunnah firmly.
1. The Prophet of mankind, the Peace of our heart and mind, the most Generous and Kind صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: ﴿اَلۡمُتَمَسِّكُ بِسُنَّتِيۡ عِنۡدَ اِخۡتِلَافِ اُمَّتِيۡ كَالۡقَابِضِ عَلَي الۡجَمۡرِ﴾ i.e. the one who keeps to my Sunnah during the turmoil of my Ummah will be like the person who holds flame.
(Nawadir-ul-Usool, Al-Juz-ul-Awwal, pp. 68, Hadees 87)
The Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: ﴿يَاتِيۡ عَلَي النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ الصَّابِرُ فِيۡهِمۡ عَلَي دِيۡنِهِ كَالۡقَابِضِ عَلَي الۡجَمۡرِ﴾ An era will come upon people when the person who stays patient with religion amongst them, will be like the one who holds flame. (Sunan-ut-Tirmizi, vol. 4, pp. 115, Hadees 267)
