(Surah Al-Baqarah ,verse 201)
Share Remembrance of Allaah The Almighty is one of the best and greatest acts of worship. Mu‘aath ibn Jabaldeemed it as the best act of worship ever, for he said,
No deed can save one from the Punishment of Allaah better than the remembrance of Allaah The Almighty”They said,“Not even fighting in the Way of Allaah?”He replied,“Not even fighting in the Way of Allaah; except for a man who goes on fighting until he had his sword cut )for the Sake of Allaah( because Allaah The Almighty Says in His Book )what means(:}And the remembrance of Allaah is greater.{]Quran 29: 45[Hearts find life, comfort and tranquility in the remembrance of Allaah for Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allaah hearts are assured.{]Quran 13: 28[
Whoever remembers Allaah The Almighty at all times, will have little regard for the worldly life and all that it contains. Thereafter, he will suffer nothing of this life for he always remembers its Creator and knows for certain that what He has for him is better and more lasting.
Whoever adheres to the remembrance of Allaah The Almighty fears nothing, for the remembrance of Allaah The Almighty instills bravery and courage in his heart and eliminates cowardice and hesitation. In fact, it is the secret behind the power of those who strive in the Way of Allaah The Almighty when they defeat their enemies, even though they are fewer in number and less armed. It is the secret that drives scholars and reformists to enjoin good and forbid evil, and declare the truth without fearing the blame of any blamer. They are probably the ones who remember Allaah The Almighty the most. They remember Him more than anyone else does.
Days of Remembering and Thanking
The Days ofAt-Tashreeqare days of remembrance and showing gratitude to Allaah The Almighty. Allaah The Almighty must be remembered and thanked at all times, even more so in these blessed days. Nubayshah Al-Huthali narrated that the Prophet,, said:"The Days of At-Tashreeq are days ofeating, drinkingand remembering Allaah."]Muslim[ In another narration reported by Imaam Ahmad, the Prophet,, said:"Whoever observes fast )i.e. on the days of At-Tashreeq(, should break his fast for they are days ofeating and drinking."]Muslim[
They are the numbered days about which Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And remember Allaah during ]specific[ numbered days.{]Quran 2: 203[ Furthermore, in theHadeethnarrated by ‘Abdullaah ibn Qurtthat the Prophet, said:"Thegreatest of days in the Sight of Allaah are the Day of Sacrifice)10thof Thul-Hijjah( and the Day of stay at Mina )11thof Thul-Hijjah(."]Ahmad[
Since these are the last days of a blessed season as pilgrims complete the rituals of theirHajjat this time and others finish them by slaughtering sacrifices to draw them nearer to Allaah The Almighty after the righteous deeds that they did in the ten days, it is recommended for the pilgrims and others to end this season with the remembrance of Allaah The Almighty.
In fact, that is the common tradition that Allaah The Almighty has enacted after finishing some acts of worship. As for remembering Allaah The Almighty after finishing prayer, the Noble Quran mentions that Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And when you have completed the prayer, remember Allaah standing, sitting, or ]lying[ on your sides.{]Quran 4: 103[
Concerning the Friday prayer, He The Almighty Says )what means(:}And when the prayer has been concluded, disperse within the land and seek from the bounty of Allaah , and remember Allaah often that you may succeed.{]Quran 62: 10[
Also, after performingHajj, Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}And when you have completed your rites, remember Allaah like your ]previous[ remembrance of your fathers or with ]much[ greater remembrance{]Quran 2: 200[
It is necessary for the one who says remembrance of Allaah The Almighty to think thoughtfully and perceive what he is saying, in turn, this will drive him to be more submissive and more affected by it, which will in turn lead to the reformation of his heart.
Ibn Al-Qayyimsaid,“The best Thikr )i.e. remembrance of Allaah The Almighty( is what the heart and the tongue share, and was reported from the Prophetand considered attentively by the reciter.”
