You got a concert. I don't approve your concert, but don't miss Magrub and Isha.

Give up the concert one day too, inshallah, but don't miss Maghriban Isha.

One step towards Allah, subhanna, is better than a thousand steps towards the shaitan

when you're already moving in that direction.

So start praying if you can. Start giving up elements of what you're doing if you can.

Take those steps, but know that shaytan will always tell you that you're not doing this,

so you might as well not do this. Or you're already doing this, so you might as well not do this or you're already doing this

so you might as well already do that i know we're running short on time let me give you an example we go for

like hedge or something like that right or someone uh wants to start fasting on al-madan whatever it is so

it's like here's a trick of shaitlan why would you even do this like why would you start praying when you

dress like this right or how can you wear hijab when you act like this or how can you go to

haj when you have this this this this this, and this going on, right?

So how can you take this step towards Allah, subhanna, when you're already so distant from him in other regards? How can you fast in Ramadan when you're not even regular with your prayers

yet? Okay. Shaitan will always call you backwards. Instead, the call to Allah, subhannawata is, I need to do this.

And now that I'm fasting, al-hambhallyla, how can I be regular with my prayers too as well?

I need to do this. How can I also do this?

It takes steps towards Allah's Pahana. Make sure you're always moving towards him and not away from him.

There's a powerful story.

You may have heard me share it one time.

I shared it in the last 10 nights in the Majlis.

Abu Bakrashibli, Rahimullah, Allah, Ta'an, when he was a scholar from Damascus.
