The Prophet Said : "Religion Is Very Easy And Whoever Overburdens Himself In His Religion Will Not Be

The Prophet ﷺ said : "Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, the afternoons, and during the last hours of the nights."

—Sahih al-Bukhari 39

• Make religion easy for you

• Practice Mindfulness and Gratitude

• Make morning/evening azkars your best friend.

• Don't become an extremist

"He who indulges in excess will not benefit from it."

—Prophet Idris عليه السلام

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and the hope of reward will be forgiven his previous sins.”

—Sunan Ibn Majah 1641

Now who doesn't want their sins to be forgiven? To be one of the residents of Jannah. To reside under the shadows of trees, to enjoy the flowing rivers. For us to attain the biggest success of this world and the Hereafter which is undoubtedly Jannah, it is essential to work for it. This longanimity of fasts, insatiable thirst, will all be rewarded in the best way possible. May Allāh ﷻ allow us to be the one entering "Rayyan" —one of the eight gates of Heaven for the people who observed fasts only for the sake of Allāh ﷻ.

Indeed in the remembrance of Allāh ﷻ, the peace of every creature relies. I have noticed that whenever I keep my heart and mouth moist in the remembrance of my Lord— my anguish, worries and anxiety rolls over as if it never existed in the first place. Not that the problem has forever wiped its existence, and not that it is impossible for my Rabb to make it happen, but the way I approach it now changes the entire plot.

أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ

أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ

أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ

Keep repeating this dhikr like a chant. Ask for forgiveness whenever you can. Acknowledge that all human beings are born to err, and our Lord ﷻ loves to forgive us. Indeed, he is Al Gafoor.

يٰۤاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اَطِيْعُوا اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوْلَهٗ وَلَا تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَاَنْتُمْ تَسْمَعُوْنَ ۚۖ

O believers! Obey Allah and His Messenger and do not turn away from him while you hear ˹his call˺.

—Surah Anfal [8:20]
