Reminder these 10 friendly reminders
Reminder these 10 friendly reminders.
First reminder: When you wake up in the morning, start everything big or small with the name of God to succeed.
Amir ul- Mumenin (peace be upon him) says: The Messenger of God (may God bless him and his family) told me from God the Mighty and Sublime said: “Every matter of importance that is not started and mentioned with (In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful) it is uncompleted.”[1]
Second reminder: always drink water even if you don't feel thirsty; Because most diseases are due by a lack of body water.
Third reminder: always exercise even if you are at the peak of your busyness. Walking, swimming or any other sport. The prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) says:
“Teach your children to swim and shoot.” [2]
“The best hobby of a believer is swimming.”[3]
Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him says: “Happiness is in ten things: walking, riding, etc.”[4]
Fourth: Reduce your food. Stop overeating because it does you no good. Don't put yourself in trouble, but eat less. Imam Sadiq (AS):
“Avoid getting fat like pigs that are kept for slaughter.”[5]
Fifth: As much as possible, use the car only when necessary.
Sixth: Don't be angry. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace:"
Anger is from Satan and Satan is created from fire, and fire is extinguished with water, so whenever one of you gets angry, perform ablution."[6] don't be sad. Try to ignore it. Don't put yourself in trouble. All these endanger your health and destroy your vitality.
Seventh: As it is said: "Leave your property in the sun and sit in the shade." Don't make life difficult for yourself and your family. Money is there to live with, not to live for.
Eighth: Don't be sorry for anyone or anything you can't get, But forget it. If it is meant to reach you, it will surely reach you, even if you are in your bed, and whatever is not your destiny, God forbids it from you. He does not forbid anything from you except because of the harm it has for you. Maybe we all know this, but humans are forgetful; Therefore, we need to remind.
Ninth: Be humble. Wealth, ambition, strength, and power are all destroyed by arrogance and pride.
Humility makes you popular with people and raises your rank with God.
Tenth: White hair is not a sign of the end of life; Rather, it is a sign that a better life has begun. Be optimistic, travel and eat and enjoy your halal wealth. Imam Ali (peace be upon him) says:
“Sadness is half of old age.”[7]
In this short and wise speech, the Imam (peace be upon him) expresses the effect of grief on the human body and soul and says: "Grief is half of old age."
It is mentioned that sadness makes a person old, even though the person is not old in terms of age; His hair gradually turns white, his stature is bent and his body strength is declining, and he feels old mentally and spiritually.
The meaning of Imam (peace be upon him) is that a person should avoid sorrow and its bad effects as much as possible.
