Zakir Naik – How can one Focus both on one’s Religion & Academics

			This question is asked by Fahad Ansari from Assam, India
		

			with the Father and third is asking a question. I am basically a student preparing for my
engineering exam. I'm actually facing some psychological issue in my recent observation, I feel that
whenever I tried to increase the intensity of God consciousness or my Eman then I cannot focus on my
academic performance. And if I tried to focus on my academics, then maintain City of God
consciousness weekends, why am I not able to carry out both with perfection? This is a very
important question.
		

			But the Father has said that when you concentrate too much on his education, he cannot concentrate
on TV man is talking about goes down. If he paid attention to a religious city with a man and two
stuck, his concentration education goes down. Why is this and how can you solve the problem? Many a
time this happens by the bosasa of the shutdown, the shutdown whispers and tells you Oh, no, don't
offer Salah tomorrow the examination. So, imagine if you want to pray full day you will be spending
one one and a half hour and you will not will do well. So, you prepare one or more for examination
you will do well. These are the Messiah that comes. But after know your priorities, whenever two
		

			things which are important clash
		

			always the one which is more important, should be done first.
		

			For example,
		

			if to a doctor, a patient of heart attack, ischemic heart disease comes to him. And a person of
common cold comes to him who will get into first but actually the person with a heart attack. If he
doesn't attend to him, he will die. The person is the common cold he has had the chance. Similarly
when it comes between your tequila and your Eman And between your education, both are important,
without doubt, but the tequila and the Eman and Fela is far more important a million than more
important than your education.
		

			Because this life is a test for the hereafter. And as I mentioned in my previous answer, that the
Beloved Prophet masala Sallam said it was mentioned in say Muslim why number one, number two for six
that the Prophet said that between a man and cook and chick is not bringing Salah. So, if you think
that if you become more religious, if you pray and if your Eman increases, then your concentration
of your education will go down. This is the Vasa of the shaitan. In fact, if you pray properly, the
amount of serenity you get the amount of peace of mind you get that you study better, I am a medical
doctor during my medical studies, but natural
		

			I used to have tension during the final exam, most of them will be there, but the moment you pray
the old tension goes down the serenity the company that you get your mind becomes more fresh, it is
rejuvenating
		

			and the things are very important
		

			these things are a must every day of your life. So my request to you is that between the two is more
important your Eman is more important or more important, that does not mean that you neglect your
education and your study. This was fossa will surely go away in your Salah you pray to Allah
subhanaw taala Please let me concentrate and the moment to pray to Allah subhanaw taala Please let
me do well in the examination Please let me concentrate inshallah, you will prepare for the
examination better and you will fare also better. And when these thoughts come in your mind, you
have to read also Billahi min ash shaytani r Rajim also belimbing shaytani r Rajim I seek refuge in
		

			Allah from setting the highest very important and the moment you say there's inshallah mine will
come back into the track. But always remember number one is taqwa is the man, the Salah, it is
nowhere close to any other thing and inshallah, if your talk was high, if demand is high, if you are
alive in place, inshallah you will do well, even in your examination. Hypothetically, even if you
don't do well in the examination, you will not do good in this examination of the world. But this
life is an examination for the Hereafter, as Allah says in the Quran in surah mu chapter Massoud
same or similar to Allah the collateral Mata will hat is Allah was created death and life to test
		

			which of his good deeds inshallah, you will pass in the examination of the hereafter. And when we do
do, we set up an Athena Mia has nothing
		

			that Oh Allah give me the good in this world and the hereafter and save me from the torment of
Hellfire and we pray to Allah be with me. ilma in
		

			carries me in knowledge and give me beneficent knowledge. So inshallah life wiser Your mind is is
alive proper inshallah educational to do better and you will come closer to Allah subhanaw taala it
will benefit you in the hereafter as well as in this world.
