Well, Kevin happy to have you ever hammered and bla bla bla

bla bla, bla bla,
bla, Monica sisters, window people usually, we do people usually remember the value of time, the most important moment in their lives. When do they remember the value of time, there are three moments in their life, three moments in their life where they remember the value of time the most. Number one, when they lack the time,
when they lack the time they get busy, that's when they realize I wish I have more time. And number two, before they're on their deathbed, they wish I wish I had more time to do so. And so. And number three under the securities when they stand before the loss of Canada without on the Day of Judgment.
Why do people have to wait until this time before allies
to feel the value of time and the great loss of their lives? Why is that?
You know, a loss of power.
Time and many, many schools in the Quran. He said one last in
the last. And while also watching the late afternoon time in particular, because that's the most wasteful time, the most wasteful time, people are tired, they're coming back for more, they're spending it on the highway, there are so many ways of losing that time. But this is the most neglectful oil time when less and less people will be worshiping.
I swear by this time in the course, at every human being is a great loss.
Except for those
that do the righteous deed.
For the loss of a sudden, those are

he knew the value of them and express them in many, many. But for us what is so special bonus
for those our children to school, next week is a spring break.
It's a spring break, which means you have your children, you're going to have them for about 910 days at home, you're going to be around the house. For money, it's a blessing, it's a blessing to have the kids finally for me and for my for my for the family, we get together, we get along we do activities and so on. For others, it's a nightmare.
It's a nightmare, because it means that kids are gonna be at home alone. That's very stressful. Now, whether you like it or not, whether you like it.
And if you don't prefer yourself, well, you can lose that. And when you lose it, you're going to remember, if not before that, it's going to be
it is going to be on the Day of Judgment.
Don't want to have that position before.
Therefore, in this
data, we want to share with you a few stories about the value of time so we can appreciate this demo but lots of data. Hopefully maybe
you will have enough time before spring break starts. before spring break start, you will have enough time to plan and get organized and spend most most of the time in shallow data with your family and with allies.
So lots of hands on one data store by the time in the forum when the US Senate in Santa Cruz and it says one day
one agenda is for by the nine is for by the day. So the value of time is democratic
This is the mention of the Quran in many, many. We don't have to emphasize that too many because we all know.

He said

means the feed of every single slave of Allah subhanho wa Taala will not be removed from that station that position as they stand before a loss of power data has an Ottawa unterliegen question about four things.
You're going to be asked
an answer for these four things. What are these four things?
your lifetime?
How long have you lived
2030 years.
I'm gonna give you health on fire.
So you're going to be asked about this time I've given you 60 years of your life. What did you do? What did you do with this time? also less power the hour they asked me to unshare Barbie, female, not just the most critical period of your lifetime. And others, which means you use time when you were young. When you were young, how did you spend this time? Because the moment the moment I say a young man or young woman, what does come to your mind will always lead to something negative.
So how we can program that every time we bring youth and the young ones we can associate that loneliness, and wrong do with wine? It seems to be a new trend.
But I'll also ask you about this age.
Now, when does it start?
That's
when you're going to be asked about that youthful age when you have the strength and the power and the ability to move around and so on. What did you do with that memorandum? Listen.
While I'm
while you work, you're going to be a boss, you're going to be asked about your money, the thing that you strive for,
so hard for to learn on your own firm square by the blessing of Allah subhanho wa Taala. But he should still ask you, where did you get that from? men?
were female and Baba, and what did you spend?
How did you spend that?
You spend you to care for
a loved one.
And the knowledge that you have the knowledge that you have? What did you do with that?
When I say knowledge, most of us think about over the mountains.
They think about books they don't think about menu.
We don't think about this to be a source of knowledge that you're getting information. You've been you've been taught something, what are you going to do with this knowledge

How the brothers mentioned these columns.
They were combined in one line in the Arabic language
in Mashallah one for Allah, one Gita
in Ostrava, which means being used young age. One
means free time. One means wealth and prosperity. I mean money for these three together. When you come up with what happens when you're young, wealthy, lots of free time. You don't know what to do with that. What did he do? He said, my setup is a source of nuts, which means source of production. getting spoiled source of corruption is perhaps the greatest answer. Not a lot of
our kids, they're going to come to Springbrook.
It's a free time for
many of us to visit our children.
So
we give them
you give them money, you go to the car, and go and just basically do stuff.
What do you expect a child to be in 16 although younger than that,
And they have all this free time.
They can structure their free time, it just because they're just finally our office right now. And they have all this was expected to do unless you train them to do it, they're not going to be doing the other thing. And they're responsible for
unless you plan something for your children and your family to enjoy together, they might not use this time wisely. And you perhaps you're responsible for them not using this time, very wisely.

is health. Being healthy, being able to wake up in the morning, and move your hands and your arms and your legs, and you move freely off your bed on your own. That ability to even use the bathroom, the ability to eat and enjoy your food, the ability to come and pray in the masjid, all of this is a great number you want
when you feel ill and sick, and you couldn't wake up, or
you feel the value of coming when unable to enjoy everything because you're sick. The second he said,
Bob Bob with his free time, free time. Most of us regardless how much time we spend at work, we always end up with plenty of free time, whether we recognize that or not.

So whatever you did outside, that's

So kind of Allah,

So here's an old
Decima value that you don't retire, there is no such thing as retirement yet.
Most retirement plans are not designed for those who have a mission on Earth.
Retirement that is for people who are just waiting to die. But for Muslims, there is no such thing as retirement, you move on from one phase to the other, from one project in your life to the other, it's an important thing. That's the same thing to you week end is not just for for you to rest, on work, and so on. All that is for you to now start another project focusing on your family and your children. And if you have enough days off that you can use, you have to use some of those days, during spring break with your family, with your children.
You have to use them, spend some time with your kids, and spend some time with them do something that is useful for yourself and for your children.
When it comes to the value of time, to the value of
one on one that is crucial for us to understand in order to appreciate that is to be well organized. All I'm asking for you, I'm not asking for you so much. All I want is just to be well organized, organize yourself. And so your priorities right?
Most of us the moment we go off work that said we shut down our system. We don't turn we don't think to communicate again.
We always think that I did my job for the rest of the day. And I have not to go and relax. So what I do with the rest of the evening, wasting time, perhaps some TV going and socializing. And the last thing that comes to mind is come and bring your children to them.
Because you're too tired
and exhausted. And that's exactly the point. That's what the law is the law says is that this is will be the opportunity to learn and to grow. When the resources when you're tired, but you put more effort to grow.
When you're done
back into
hard work, that's when you move on to the next
retiring by the end of the day, the end of the week, and the end of our life and
that we miss so many opportunities, the most valuable time is wasted.
How can we value that time?
The number one way of doing that is?
Put yourself in the reckoning? Meaning you put yourself to the account. How often do you sit down? How often do you sit down and write down your achievements in life in regard to the
How often do

day after. But it needs someone who devotes someone who would use the time wisely and someone who would put themselves to that account. So always want to know all those checkpoints so that we don't lose focus on cost or concentration. The other thing
is that you set your priorities, you set your expectations from yourself. So hi. Many of us we lose time because our expectations from the ACA is very low.
Are those
we set our standards so low, that whatever we do whatever we achieve, an hour, an hour time, whatever the time that we have to do, it should be fun. But those who set the

about the value of time, when the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says,

That doesn't mean to scare you off? That doesn't mean to discourage you from doing the thing that you're already doing? No, it means you remind yourself to use your time wisely. If you know that I'm going to be dying tomorrow, what you're going to be doing,
if you truly believe in the afterlife, you live in German now.
What will you be doing today, that's what it means, means you use your time wisely, you will become far more focused. But it will always depend on on this false hope. Extended lifespan does like an eternal life for yourself, then you will never feel the urgency of doing anything properly, perfectly in the mind, the mind,
the mind yourself that there could be tomorrow after tomorrow, or the next day.
Every single day is a missing. That's why unemployment has an impossibly low data. He said he said Manhattan Jr. is a young fella. He says this

So tomorrow, tomorrow.
And today, that is your day. He says that is your day. So do their best, every single,
