There is a Bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400.
It carries over no balance from day to day.
Every evening deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day.

What would you do? Draw out ALL of it, of course!!!!
Each of us has such a Bank. It's name is TIME.


Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.
Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose.
It carries over no balance.
It allows no overdraft.
Each day it opens a new account for you.
Each night it burns the remains of the day.

If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.
There is no going back.
There is no drawing against the "tomorrow."

You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it carefully with wisdom and knowledge. Use your Time to do good and Charity; To faithfully practice the Five Pillars and your Deen. To faithfully give thanks to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala; To adhere to the teachings of the Sunnah of His Beloved Messenger Sall-Allahu alaihi wa sallam. In order that you may benefit the utmost in blessings and guidance in your life and live in peace, happiness, good health and success! The clock is running. Make the most of everyday. Start working on your 'Time'

Surah Al 'Asr
(By the Token of TIME)
By (the Token of)Time (through the Ages),
Verily Man Is in loss,
Except such as have Faith And do righteous deeds,
In the mutual teaching Of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.
(Qur'an 103: 1-3 )
