STORY OF THE DAY - REGRET Once, a group of people were traveling on rocks at night. A voice came from the sky that whosoever picks up the rocks will regret and whosoever doesnt pick up the rocks will regret. Now, the people were confused. How can this be? Whether you pick up the rocks or not, you will regret! Some people picked up the rocks and some didnt. In the morning when they reached their homes, they saw that the rocks turned into diamonds. Now, those people who didnt pick up the rocks started regretting saying, If only we knew we should had picked up some rocks. Those people who did pick some rocks also started regretting saying, Why didnt we pick up more rocks? Both sides ended up regretting. This same incident will take place with us on the Day of Judgment. Those people who spent their time in useless things will start regretting by looking at those who achieved a great position in Paradise by spending their time in the way of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتعال ). Now, those who did achieve a position in Paradise will start regretting by looking at those who did more than them and are higher in status. Alas! If we had only done more to please Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتعال ). Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتعال ), the Majestic said: And could you but see when the guilty shall hang down their heads before their Lord: Our Lord! We have seen and we have heard, therefore send us back, we will do good; surely (now) we are certain. Noble Quran (32:12)------------ Let us dont forget to pick more precious stones tonight by praying our Tahajaad Salaat and other days praying our Sunnah Salaat .When we fight against our nafs and shaiytan not to, think about this lecture and know the treasures you would lose come judgement day and it would be to late to return and gain those blessings lost .Asalaam Walaykum Waramatullah Wabarakatuh.
