Sermon (197): He said about prayer, zakat and trust
Hazrat used to give this advice to his companions. Observe and take care of Namaz, perform it as much as possible and seek closeness to God through it, because Namaz is obligatory on Muslims with punctuality. Have you not heard the answer of the people of Hellfire (in the Qur'an) that what drew you to Hellfire? So they will say that we did not pray. Undoubtedly, prayer sweeps away sins in the same way that sheep are unsnared from their necks and released. The Prophet compared prayer to a hot spring that is at the door of a person's house and if he bathes in it five times day and night, can it be expected that there will be no residue left on his (body)? The right of prayer is recognized by those men who are not neglected by the prostration of the world and the lord of wealth and children. (So) Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says that "there are some people who are not distracted by trade or buying and selling from zikr and prayer and giving alms." And the Messenger, despite the fact that he had been given the promise of Paradise (in abundance), used to tire himself by praying because Allah said to him, "Command your family to pray and observe it yourself." He used to emphasize and Rukhood also endured hardships and hardships in its abundance and execution. Then, along with the prayers of the Muslims, Zakat has also been declared as a means of getting close to God. (Look! After paying) no one should even think about it and do not complain about it too much, because the person who gives zakat without sincere dedication and keeps his eye on something better is ignorant of the Sunnah, a loser in terms of reward, a wrongdoer and in constant trouble and regret. Then, the duty of trust is that one who cannot make himself worthy of trust is a failure and useless. This trust was offered to the lands spread in the firm heavens and the long and wide mountains. There is nothing greater than them. Known. Which human beings weaker than them could not know. Undoubtedly, human beings are very unjust and very ignorant. These servants of God who commit sins during the night (curtains of the day) and the days (of the day) are not hidden from Allah, He is aware of every little thing and His knowledge covers everything. Your own limbs will stand before Him as witnesses, and your hands and feet are His army, and your solitudes are before His eyes.
