It was asked from Hazrat Ali (as): How should a
person take account of himself?
Hazrat Ali (as) replied:
When a person ends his day, then he should

ask you about the actions you performed, whether you remembered Him and
praised Him? Whether you fulfilled a right of your fellow believer? Did
you remove a difficulty that befell upon a believer? Did you protect his
children in his absence? Did you safeguard his rights after his death?
Did you – on account of your position – prevent anyone from backbiting
your believing brother? Did you help any Muslim throughout the day?

it will bounce back. But the other four Balls – Family, Health, Friends
and spirit-are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be
irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They
will never be the same. You must under...
Allah says in the Quran – Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled betwe...
