Nabi (sallallahu’alaihi wasallam) once enquired from the Sahabah (radiallahu’anhum),
‘Should I not inform you of such acts which would expiate your sins and elevate your ranks (in Jannah)?’
‘Yes, of course, O Rasulullah’ was the enthusiastic reply from the Sahabah. Nabi (sallallahu’alaihi wasallam) then stated,
‘This is achieved by performing a perfect wudu despite facing unfavorable conditions (such as inclement weather, cold water, sickness etc.), taking many steps to the musjid and anticipating the next salah after having performed one.’
(This reward will be received irrespective of one being in the business place or involved in any other activity between the two salahs).
Nabi (sallallahu’alaihi wasallam) then mentioned,
‘These acts constitute your security! These acts constitute your security!’
[Sahih Muslim #251]
(i.e. in addition to being so meritorious as well).
This is a divine formula from our Nabi (sallallahu’alaihi wasallam) to maintain and improve our spiritual condition after Ramadan. By firmly practicing on this hadith, we will be perpetually secure against the wicked schemes of Shaytan, insha Allah.
May Allah Ta’ala protect us all. Ameen.
