Jika orang-orang di masa lalu berhasil menggapai kecemerlangannya di usia yang sangat belia, maka bagaimana kita di usia yang sama? Sedang berleha-leha? Merengek minta dibelikan ini-itu ke orang tua? Atau sedang dilema putus-nyambung dengan jodoh orang lain?

Masa muda adalah kekuatan di antara dua kelemahan: masa kecil dan masa tua. Kalau bukan di saat muda, kapan lagi kamu kejar cita-citamu? Fisikmu yang prima tak akan bertahan selamanya. Otakmu yang brilian akan tumpul jika tak kamu gunakan.

Pubertas bukan alasan, bukan pembenaran, bahwa di usia itu, kamu wajar saja berbuat nakal dan sia-sia. Jika memang kamu mencari jati diri, carilah di dalam Al-Qur'an, sunnah nabi, dan sejarah kecemerlangan generasi terdahulu.

"Hidup, hidup gue. Ya terserah gue!"

Kata siapa? Kamu itu anak orang tuamu, dilahirin dan disusuin ibumu, hidup dinafkahin ayahmu. Gak ada niat gitu buat membalas jasa keduanya?

Kamu itu ciptaan Allah. Hidup sampai detik ini juga karena karunia Allah. Gak ada niat gitu buat bersyukur dan taat sama Allah?

Hidup gue terserah gue? Gak malu ngomong gitu?

Selamat hari sumpah pemuda btw ;)

He put you where you are for a reason. The hardship in worshipping Him in the middle of parenting, the sacrifice of serving Him in your devotion to supporting family, the blessings of your worship of Him when you’re exhausted from working-

This may not be your ideal form of worship. You may feel no sweetness and only longing for what you think would be better.

But as Ibn Ataillah says, “Your wanting to be free from the asbab when Allah has placed you in them is hidden desire.”

As my teacher explained to me, you wanting to free yourself from the responsibilities Allah has placed in your life simply so you can do extra worship and the guilt you induce because of that is not righteousness, but pure desire. Because, as Ibn alQayyim mentions, what is an obligation on your time and life right now- after the obligatory acts of worship- IS the best form of worship.

Working, raising kids, caring for others, taking care of your health issues, studying for school may not make your eman soar. But it’s the best form of worship for you right now.

So yes, make time to read Quran and do extra worship, but know the lack of religious opportunities you want so badly like so many others isn’t because He hasn’t opened those doors of worship.

Instead, what you do in your life with the intention of His Face- that- even when it’s dry and exhausting, THAT is worship. And if it’s what He has chosen for this time period of your life- then for this moment, it’s the best way to worship Him.

Walaikum Assalaam,

This is a lifetime struggle and we have to keep trying to better ourselves in shaa Allah. When we fall just turn to Him and ask for His forgiveness. He is the most forgiving xnd merciful. So make dua that Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala purify our intentions. Keep checking your intention that whether you are doing to please Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala or the people and pray that Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala give us sincerity in our worship. 

Following are some tips that will help you in shaa Allah
