Saad Tasleem – Is There a Such Thing As Too Much Worship

			Is there such thing as doing too many acts of worship? You are watching hashtag asleep.
		

			Before I answer that question, let me share a story with you. This is a story of two companions of
the press, set them up with delta and Sandman.
		

			Sandman went to the house of Abu Dhabi. And he knocked on his door and the wife of Abu Dhabi, she
answers the door and send me notices that she's wearing shabby clothes. And so he asked her if
everything is okay. And she says a whole caboodle de les Salah, who has written for dunya he she
says your brother, I would love that he has no desires or wants from this life. And so without a
doubt he comes home a little bit later Sandman waits for him. And as they sit down with them that
makes them food for Sandman and Sandman or the laughter and he notices that that is not eating of
any of the food himself. And so he realizes that up with that is fasting. And so Sandman says until
		

			you break your fast, I'm not going to eat my food, meaning I'm going to wait for you to break your
fast and then I will eat with you. And then the nighttime comes and Sandman will be allotted and he
notices that I would do that in the early part of the night. He's about to get up and pray for me
and said man tells him to go back to sleep. And then some more time passes and their dad's about to
wake up again to pray and say the man tells him Go back to sleep. Then the last parsh portion of the
night or the last third of the night comes and then send man both get up and pray. In the morning
time. Sandman says to Buddha he says yes, he says yeah, but after that, he says in nearly Arabic
		

			alika when he
		

			was in FC gallega the athlete couldn't let it happen. He says oh I would have done. He says most
certainly your Lord has rights upon you. And your family has rights upon you and your knifes you
meaning you have rights upon yourself. So give each party their due rights. And now this hadith this
statement was actually taken to the prophets. I said them someone went to the person and said you
know what Sandman said this to a Buddha. And the Prophet said a lot I send them he replied laqad
sada person man, he said most certainly send man has spoken the truth. Now what is happening in this
hadith. In this narration, we learned that it is possible to do too much when it comes to the acts
		

			of worship or less patriotic meaning we should constantly strive to attain that balance. When is it
too much. Our acts of worship become too much when we start neglecting other people's rights amongst
them ourselves. So we have to make time for our obligations and our responsibilities towards our
family, spending time with your family and your kids and so on and so forth. Also, you're nuts Do
you have rights upon yourself, if the acts of worship of Allah subhanaw taala are coming at the
expense of you taking care of yourself, then it is possible that you have gone overboard. So our
goal is to find that balance between our acts of worship, the rights of trying to honor our
		

			obligations towards our family, our friends, our community and all of that, and also ourselves,
meaning we need to take time out for ourselves to relax, to rest, to have fun, Yes, you heard me
correctly, to have fun. Sometimes we need to take out time to have fun because that is what we owe
to ourselves. And we ask Allah, Allah to grant us this life of balance the life that the companions
of the press seldom sought, and the life of the prophets that I send them himself lived. And Allah
Subhana Allah knows best. Until next time in sha Allah, Allah Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi
wabarakatuh
