Book Name:The Joy of Worship
The ‘trust’ referred to in this verse means ṣalāh. It also means every action a person is rewarded for doing and becomes sinful for not doing.”[1]
Sadly, we seem to remember everything else.
* We do not forget to eat.
* We do not forget to drink.
* We do not forget to buy new clothes.
* We cannot sit still until we buy the latest model of a particular phone.
* We keep track of cars and their latest models.
If we forget anything, we forget only worship, which is itself the most important task we can ever do.
* We do not worry for what will happen in our graves.
* We turn a blind eye to how we will be fearful and alone in our graves.
*We do not stop to consider if we will be capable of answering the questions posed to us by angels in the grave when we will be afraid and alone.
* What will happen to us when we are exposed to the blazing heat of the Day of Judgement?
* What will be our state when our book of deeds is finally opened?
* How will we cross the bridge of al-Ṣirāṭ?
* We will end up in Paradise or Hellfire?
