Value Every Moment: Become Pious

The Book of Deeds will be closed when we go to the graves (after death). Therefore, every single breathe must be utilized and not a single of breathe should be passed except Allah Taala’s Zikr. It is very easy. In every walk of life – sitting, standing, at home, in office, in the field – every where and every time keep on doing Zikr. It is very easy.
The Book of Deeds will be closed when we go to the graves (after death). Therefore, some deeds must be left in the world to be continued. Everybody must participate in building a Madrasah. Whatever be the amount you donate – ten, five, one, fifty paisa, twenty five paisa, ten paisa, five paisa – no one must be left out from donating. Accomplish more Good Deeds for making those heavy in the Balance of Deeds.
Many people believe that it is Kashf (seeing the unseen) and Karamat (special spiritual powers), which proves piousness. But some buzurgs (Noble men) rather disliked achieving such powers, because there is often possibility of impairment if those are attained. May be the possesr would think himself a Pious, whereas, there is no relation of power with piousness. Hazrat Thanvi (R) once stated that, to utter Subhanallah (only) once is much greater than hundreds of Kashf and Karamat. Therefore, there ought to be no desire of attaining Kashf and Karamat. To assess whether one is an original Spiritual Mentor or not, (sometimes) such spiritual power may be paid attention to. However, this is not the actual sign of an original Spiritual Mentor.
Hazrat Thanvi (R) used to say, if someone’s house is burgled and in a box there is only one paisa left, still he can be called a possessor of wealth, because, indeed he is at least the owner of one paisa. But still he won’t be called rich, but he would be called poor. In the same way, if someone accomplishes very little of good deeds, how would he be called pious? Therefore, such a person can never be an actual pious individual. To be pious, one has to accomplish all the deeds which have been prescribed.
Whenever you meet someone, besides talking about necessary things, you must also provide him some religious benefits or help him in some other way.
