Story:
A man woke up early in order to pray the Fajr prayer
in the masjid. He got dressed, made his ablution and
was on his way to the masjid.

On his way to the masjid, the man fell down and his
clothes got dirty. He got up, brushed himself off, and
headed home.
At home, he changed his clothes, made his ablution, and
was, again, on his way to the masjid.
On his way to the masjid, he fell again and at the same
spot! He, again, got up, brushed himself off and headed
home.
At home he, once again, changed his clothes, made his
ablution and was on his way to the masjid.
On his way to the masjid, he met a man holding a lamp.
He asked the man of his identity and the man replied "I
saw you fall twice on your way to the masjid, so I brought a
lamp so I can light your way."
The first man thanked him and the two were on their way
to the masjid.
Once at the masjid, the first man asked the man with
the lamp to come in and pray Fajr with him.

The second man refused. The first man asked him a


couple more times and, again, the answer was the
same.
The first man asked him why he did not wish to come in
and pray.
The man replied "I am Satan."
The man was shocked at this reply. Satan went on to
explain, "I saw you on your way to the masjid and it was I
who made you fall. When you went home, cleaned yourself
and went back on your way to the masjid, Allah forgave all
of your sins.
I made you fall a second time, and even that did not
encourage you to stay home, but rather you went back on
your way to the masjid. Because of that, Allah forgave all
the sins of the people of your household.

I was afraid if I made you fall one more time, then Allah will
forgive the sins of the people of your village, so I made sure
that this time you reach the masjid safely."
Message:

Do not put off a good that you intended to do as you


never know how much reward you might receive from
the hardships you encounter while trying to achieve that
good.

Allahu La illaha ila Huwa Al Hai Al Qayoom, AlHaleem,


AlKareem.
