رَبِّ ابْنِ لِى عِندَكَ بَيْتاً فِى الْجَنَّةِ

I worshiped Allaah for Fifty Years…


Al Haafidh ad Dhahabee

Nasr ibn Mahmood al Balkhee said; Ahmad ibn Harb stated:

“I worshiped Allaah for fifty years, I wasn’t able to find the sweetness of worship until I forsook three things:
1.         I forsook seeking the acceptance of people, so I was able to speak the truth.
2.       I forsook the companionship of the sinner, so I was able to accompany the righteous.
3.        I forsook the sweetness of the life of this world, so I was able to find the sweetness of the afterlife.
