Never fail to look around and reflect, and to spend time with the people that matter. The days just fly by, before you know it, you’ve grown up and there’s not much time left to spend with your Mother, children, your family-and it’s with them that you can attain reward. We spend time discussing the beauty of Islam with others, but not our own family. Spread the word of this deen not just outside, but inside the home as well.
