An excerpt from the talk, ‘Capitalise on 5 before 5‘
Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 24th February 2017 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester (UK)
Full talk: Capitalise on 5 before 5
One of the signs of the Hour mentioned by the Prophet ﷺ is that there will be less barakah in time. Rasūlullāh ﷺ mentions that time will shrink to the extent that a year will become like a month, a month will become like a week and a week will become like a day.
This parabole extends further to include what an hour will become like in comparison to a day. This reduction of barakah in time is evident by looking at what the ‘ulamā of the past achieved in comparison to what we can do, despite having modern technology at our disposal. The examples of Imam al-Ṭabarī and the authors of Jalālayn is brought to demonstrate the barakah in their time.
Find out in this excerpt how time will continue to shrink until the last day and how we should make the most of our free time before preoccupation.
