Knowing a Man by his Moves:
It is reported that Al-A’mash – Allāh have mercy on him – said:
They (the Salaf) never used to ask about [the religious condition of] a man after knowing three things about him: where and upon whom he entered, where and with whom he walked, and the close company he kept.
Meaning: Knowing these things about a man is more than sufficient for knowing whether he is following the right path on the Sunnah or not. [Ibn Battah, Al-Ibānah article 419].
Further: - Umar ibn al-khattab (Radiy'Allah'anhu).
A man bore witness in the presence of
So a man said: ‘I know him, O Chief of the Believers.’
Umar said: “What do you know of him?”
The man said: ‘Uprightness.’
Umar said: “Is he your closest neighbour; so that you know about his night and his day, and his comings and goings?”
The man said: ‘No.’
Umar said: “So have you had (monetary) dealings with him involving dirhams and deenars, which will indicate his piety?”
The man said: ‘No.’
Umar said: “Then has he been your companion upon a journey which could indicate to you his good character?”
The man said: ‘No.’
Umar said: “Then you do not know him.”
Then he said to the man (who bore witness): “Bring me someone who knows you.”

People would automatically stop complaining about the problems which they face in their daily lives when they start contemplating on the saying of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم:

Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه reported: The Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “A strong believer is better and dearer to Allaah than a weak one, and both are good. Adhere to that which is beneficial for you. Keep asking Allaah for help and do not refrain from it. If you are afflicted in any way, do not say: 'If I had taken this or that step, it would have resulted into such and such,' but say only:
قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ، وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ
Qaddar-Allaahu, wa maa shaa’ fa
'It is the Decree of Allaah, and what He wills He does.'

RATS ARE AGENTS OF SHAITAN.
.
We underestimate rats so much, we overlook them and even allow them to live with us for months or years, but in reality, they are agents of Shaitan. They are known as Fa'rah but The prophet salallahu alayhi wassalam termed them 'Fuwaysiqah' evil doers in Hadeeth. From the word 'Fasaqa' so he named them Fawaasiq because of their vile nature. Most houses that suddenly starts burning without a known cause might be as a result of the rats in it. If a rat once wanted to burn the prophet's house, then whose house is safe?
.
Ibn ‘Abbas said:
A mouse (or rat) came one night and started dragging the wick (of the lantern). It threw the lantern in front of rasuluLlah salallahu alayhi wassalam, on the mat in which he was sitting, and it burnt a portion like the size of a dirham.
He said: “When you are going to sleep, extinguish your lamps, for the Shaytaan will order creatures such as this to do something like this so that you will be burned.”
(Sunan Abu Dawood, 5427)
.
A rat once burnt a companion along with all his family and wiped out the entire lineage in one night.
Abu Moosa al-Ash’ari said: A house in Madeenah got burned down along with all the people inside. When the prophet heard about it, he said:
“This fire is an enemy to you, so when you go to sleep, extinguish it. (Bukhari/Muslim)

Jabir ibn Abdillah said, the prophet said:
Cover your utensils and tie your water skins, close your doors and keep your children close to you at night, because the Jinns spread out at such time and snatch things away. When you go to bed, off your lights, for the evil-doer (the rat) may drag the wick of the candle and burn all the dwellers of the house.
(Saheeh Bukhari 3316).

Rats are so dangerous to humans that they are one of the five animals that are Halal to be killed everywhere including in the sacred Ka'bah or during Ihram. They also consume food and cause plagues, if with all these reasons, you are still afraid of killing them, then live with them as co-tenants and expect the consequences.

Allaah decreed the reward of fifty prayers for these five prayers we pray daily.
The unprecedented mercy of Rabb al-Aalameen
enables us to acquire fifty in terms of reward for our five daily prayers. Despite all of this there are brothers and sisters amongst us who do not pray, are lazy to pray, not praying at the correct time and extending all kinds of excuses.
Anas ibn Malik (radiAllahuanhu) reported: Fifty prayers were obligated upon the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhiwa sallam), when he was taken on his night journey. Then, it was reduced until it was set at five and an announcement was made, “O Muhammad, My word is never changed, so these five prayers will be counted as fifty.” Source: Sunan al-Tirmidhī 213.Grade

Musa عليه السلام went from a prince to an outcast, from an outcast to a shepherd, from a shepherd to a prophet. Life is meant to be up and down. The rises and falls remind us of the transient nature of the life of the dunya. So tire not yourself by worrying about tomorrow, rather turn back to the remembrance and appreciation of Allah with full, heart-felt submission at this very moment. He knows where you should go. Put your trust in him and follow the lead. You didn't randomly end up being here, you are here right on schedule.

The delays in your life are there for a purpose and behind them is Divine Wisdom which only Allaah knows. So surrender your affairs to Allaah and trust Him, and don’t be disheartened nor lose hope.
Behind every patience there is a beautiful affair, and know that what has passed you by [and you have failed to attain] was not going to befall you, and what has befallen you was not going to pass you by. And know that victory comes with patience, and affliction is followed by relief, and hardship is followed by ease.

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to offer prayer (salah) whenever he was overwhelmed by a problem or faced a difficulty. This is because the one who prays begins communicating with Allah and he surrenders all of his affairs to Him. Allah commences the denoscription of the characteristics of the believer, those who are the dwellers of Paradise and the dwellers of Firdaws (the highest level of paradise), with prayers and ends with prayers. He says:
"Successful indeed are the believers. Who are humble in their prayers." [Al-Mu'minūn 1-2]
And towards the end:
"And those who keep a guard on their prayers. These are they who are the heirs, who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall abide therein." [Al-Mu’minun 9-11]
Similarly Allah says:
"Surely man is created of a hasty temperament. Being greatly grieved when evil afflicts him. And withholding when good befalls him. Except those who pray. Those who are constant at their prayer." [Al-Ma'arij 19-23] And Allah concludes saying:
"And those who keep a guard on their prayer. Those shall be in gardens, honored." [Al-Ma'arij 34-35]

“For the tongue does not keep quiet at all. It is either a tongue that remembers or a tongue that is frivolous and it has to be one of these two.
It is the (nature of the) soul; if you do not preoccupy it with truth, it will occupy you with falsehood. It is the (nature of the) heart; if you do not accommodate it with love of Allāh, it will dwell with love of creation and this is a certain reality. It is the (nature of the) tongue; if you do not preoccupy it with remembrance, it will most definitely occupy you with frivolity.
Thus, choose for your own self one of the two courses and confer upon it one of the two standings.”

📚True Intelligence
Imām Ibn Taimiyyah, may Allāh have mercy on him, said:
No one can be called a person of intelligence or understanding unless he’s come to know what’s good and then sought it and [come to know] what’s evil and then left it. For this [reason], the People of the Fire say:
{ لَوۡ كُنَّا نَسۡمَعُ أَوۡ نَعۡقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِیۤ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلسَّعِیرِ }
If we had listened or tried to understand, we would not have come to be among the People of the Fire. (Al-Mulk, 10)
And [Allāh] says about the hypocrites:
{ تَحۡسَبُهُمۡ جَمِیعࣰا وَقُلُوبُهُمۡ شَتَّىٰۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ لَّا یَعۡقِلُونَ }
You think they’re all together [upon the same thing], but their hearts are far apart from one another; that’s because they’re a people who don’t think and understand. (Al-Ḥashr, 14)

Imām Ibn Taimiyyah, may Allāh have mercy on him, said:
No one can be called a person of intelligence or understanding unless he’s come to know what’s good and then sought it and [come to know] what’s evil and then left it. For this [reason], the People of the Fire say:
{ لَوۡ كُنَّا نَسۡمَعُ أَوۡ نَعۡقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِیۤ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلسَّعِیرِ }
If we had listened or tried to understand, we would not have come to be among the People of the Fire. (Al-Mulk, 10)
