Assalamu alaikum. I think you're scrolling a little bit too much.

Subhanallah, that would be the advice given to those who scroll on their phones or their devices,

social media, application such as TikTok, Instagram, whatever it may be, Twitter.

You want to see the comments all the time. You want to see what people are saying and doing and you want to actually add or subtract.

Now, there needs to be a limit. I'm not presuming that you're looking or browsing,

looking at or browsing something halam, but I'm saying even if it was something permissible, you need to set limits.

You have rights. Your body has a right over you. Your eyes have a right over you. Your ears have a right over you.

And all your organs have rights over you. Your family members have rights over you.

Many times people are browsing on their devices, late hours of the night. Subhanallah, right into the early hours of the morning.

And they have spouses right next to them. What's the point? My brother,

my sister, you can do much better than that.

May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala forgive us. Do you know a lot of people are struggling with their eyesight, with me grains or migraines as you may pronounce it.

Or people are struggling with various health issues with problems with their backs and the way they sit, their necks, the bone pain and so on.

Sometimes a lot of the times in fact, it's to do with slouching, too much screen time, browsing, not enough sleep and you're getting unwell.

Remember to sleep based on your health and your body, your age etc. is very, very important. Get that sleep at night and make sure that you have put aside your phones.

The world can wait. You don't need to know everything that's happening. You don't need to have read every single comment.

You don't need to have responded to everything that happened there.

Subhanallah set aside the time to browse and stick to it because where are we heading?

How much time have we allotted and allocated to the Quran or to communicating with Allah through prayer?

Sometimes we rush our prayer but then we relax into the bedding or the recliner in order to look at our phones and just browse things that may be halal, maybe halal.

But when it came to Allah, what did we do? We rushed. That is a reality.
