Ten things we waste

1. Knowledge

Wasted by not taking action with it

2. Actions

Wasted by committing them without sincerity.

3. Wealth

Wasted by using on things that will not bring us rewarded (from God). 

We waste our money, our status, our authority, on things which have no benefit 

in this life or in hereafter.

  

4. Hearts

Wasted because they are empty from the love of God, and 

the feeling of longing to go to Him, and a feeling of peace and contentment. 

In it's place, our hearts are filled with something or someone else.

5. Bodies

Wasted because we don't use them in worship

and service of Him.

6. Love

Our emotional love is wasted/misdirected, not towards God, 

but towards something or someone else.

7. Time

Wasted, not used properly, to compensate for that which has passed, 

by doing what is righteous to make up for past deeds.

8. Intellect

Wasted on things that are not beneficial, 

that are detrimental to society and the individual, 

not in contemplation or reflection.

9. Service

Wasted in service of someone who will not bring us closer to God, 

or benefit in this world.

10. Remembrance

(of the Creator of the universe)

Wasted, because it does not effect us or our hearts.

NOTE: A lessons told by Imam Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah who is known as 'the scholar of the heart,' I took this as an open reminder and worthy tips to be shared. Isn't that all reality of life? I whispered quietly to myself.

Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. Unknown
