Omer El-Hamdoon – Ramadan Reminders 2019 – #22 Recalibrate Your GPS

			Rahmatullahi wa barakato What is our direction in life? It's a very important question which Allah
subhanaw taala asked us when he says, Where are you heading? And in this month of Ramadan is a great
opportunity for us to recalibrate our GPS to actually think where are we going in life? What is our
purpose? And it's very important question to be asking continuously and regularly because the Muslim
has to be continuously aware, what is he doing? And without that we should be thinking, are we
pleasing? Allah subhanho? wa Taala? Are we doing lots of good deeds? are we keeping away from bad
deeds? How is our attitude with the people around us, our family, our neighbors, society in general?
		

			And that's why it's very important to continuously ask, Where am I heading? And therefore we have to
think about our GPS. Where are we now? Where are we going on what kind of direction do we have and
while we are thinking about it, it gives gives us a great opportunity to change if we need to,
because remember,
		

			one step in the right direction is better than 100 steps in the wrong direction. So I think it's
very important for us to stop and to think about this. And by doing that in sha Allah, we can focus
on the right way and take the right steps in sha Allah Tada. So stay tuned with us and inshallah, we
hope that the direction will be clear
