ASAK
Life is not here for us to take it easy, revelling in the temporary joy succumbing to temptations yields, fulfilling those lower desires. Besides blatantly disobeying God, that is WASTING this Dunya; every moment, every second Allah(SWT) Gives us...think about it. Reflect for a moment. Could Allah(SWT) not just Will us to Die this very moment? It is very within his power to do so; yet he has let us live. Why? So we can while away the time doing Haraam? Gossiping and slandering, lying and cheating, procrastinating in regards to our Salat, and/or neglecting our Ibadah? He, the Merciful, the Just, is Giving us chance after chance to USE this time to our benefit so that we have something to show for ourselves on the Day of Judgement, something Insha' Allah that will Please our Lord and Bless us with his Mercy so that we will gain entrance to Jennat-ul-Firdous.
We must always appraise the state of our Eman, ALWAYS. We must be self-critical; is my faith weakening? Why is it weakening? Am I not taking advantage of my time, not praying Sunnah? Am I missing some Salat?
And then fix yourself.
It isn't always easy; but when you think of the Akhira and the importance of your achieving Jennah, when you think of Allah(SWT), his Power, his Magnificence, when you think of the prospect of Seeing Him in Jennah...it doesn't seem so difficult.
When you observe Taqwa(Love and Fear of Allah(SWT), then...it doesn't seem so difficult.
