Imam al Musani teaches us the importance of
priorities.
He came to Imam al Shafi'i, Rahim, and
he asked him he wanted to ask him
some questions, and these questions were sort of
theoretical questions and somewhat difficult
and not really practical.
And so every time he asked
Sayedna, your mom Sheff, are you one of
these questions?
Actually, there were 5 of them. Your mom
Sheff, he would respond and ask him a
question related to, like, purification
or prayer.
And then finally, after he finished asking these
questions and Imam Shafi kept responding with questions
about the obligations,
Imam Shafi said, like, how incredible is it
that someone is asking about these things,
which are not really applicable and important,
But he is unaware of things that he
has to do at a minimum 5 times
a day, related to purification and prayer. And
then the Imam al Musa, he realized, he
said, you know what? I need to have
my priorities in order. That's the case of
many of us. We don't have our priorities.
