How are you today (lit. How is your morning)?
He replied:
How are you today (lit. How is your morning)?

How can
one’s day be while he is required by his Lord to perform obligatory acts of
worship?
(How can one’s day be while) his Prophet is calling him to practice the Sunnah?
(How can one’s day be while) two angels are requiring from him to correct his deeds?
(How can one’s day be while) his nafs urges him to follow its desires?
(How can one’s day be while) Iblees is beckoning him to commit all types of indecent, evil deeds?
(How can one’s day be while) the Angel of Death is observing him (waiting) to take his soul?
(How can one’s day be while) his dependents are asking him to provide them with maintenance?
