Each day begins with one question.  

Is God pleased with me ?

This is the only real concern.  Everything else follows from it.  

Wake before Fajr.  Stand for Tahajjud. Speak to your Lord in humility.  Name your fears.  Confess your weaknesses.  Ask for strength and protection.  Seek steadfastness in obedience to Khilafat. Seek to live and die as a humble member of the Jama’at. Stay informed about its programs and directives. Attend congregational prayers and meetings when possible. Offer time, wealth and skill for Jama’at needs. Serve quietly and sincerely.

Enter the day with Salat at the center.  Let time revolve around prayer.  Guard the times of prayer carefully.  There is morality in honoring time.  

Pray Fajr on time.  Begin the day with remembrance.  Let all activities arrange themselves around Salat. Recite and reflect on the Qur’an daily.. Set your intention for the day.  Work for the pleasure of God.  

Fulfill your duties at home.  Help your family with presence and care.  Speak gently.  Show patience.  Serve without pride.  

Go to work on time.  Give full measure in your responsibilities.  Act with honesty and trust.  Fulfill the command of doing justice in your duties.  Do not cut corners.  Do not betray trust.  

Be kind to people.  Offer help when needed.  Listen with sincerity.  Avoid harshness.  

Act with ahsan in all affairs. Let excellence and beauty show in your worship, your work, and your dealings with people. Strengthen your faith through financial sacrifice. Give regularly for the cause of Allah. Take care of the weak and underprivileged. Family comes first. Remember sacrifice exposes your true faith. Gratitude elevates it.

Use your free moments wisely.  Recite Darood.  Seek forgiveness through Istighfar.  Keep your tongue moist with remembrance.  

Let your hands be in work.  Let your heart be with God.  Remain inwardly connected at all times.  

Eat with gratitude.  Begin with the name of God.  End with thanks.  Eat moderately.  Avoid excess.  Find time to exercise.

Live as a balanced community member.  Ummatun Wassatun.  Avoid extremes.  Be steady and just in all matters.  

Show kindness to your parents. Give time to your wife and children.  Show love.  Be compassionate.  Be forgiving.  Create peace in the home.  

Stay spiritually alert.  Guard your thoughts.  When a harmful suggestion comes, turn to God.  Remember Him immediately.  Clarity will return.  

At night, sit for a few quiet moments. Ask yourself. Did I guard my Salat. Did I fulfill my work trust. Was I kind to my family and fellow humans. Did I serve the Jama’at. Did I remain loyal to Khilafat in heart and deed. Your beliefs do not impress people. Your behavior does.

In bad times patiently endure. Seek help with prayers. Istiqamat is among the noblest of virtues. It must be cultivated and practiced consistently.

Thank Allah for every success. Seek forgiveness for every failure and resolve to improve. Plan small, concrete improvements for the next day. 

Live this way with constancy. Hands in service. Heart with Allah. Soul attached to Jama’at and Khilafat. Life measured by the pleasure of God. 

This is the path.  Simple.  Consistent.  God centered.
