How to stop Procrastinating use The Quran for Allah's Guidance - Beautiful lecture by Belal Assaad

1. Structure Your Day Around Prayer Times 🕌
The five daily prayers are not only foundational pillars of Islam but also natural timekeepers. Allah says in the Quran, “Indeed, prayer has been decreed upon the believers a decree of specified times” (Quran 4:103). By planning your day around Salah times, you create a disciplined schedule that ensures spiritual commitments are met, while also organizing your worldly tasks efficiently.
💡 Action Tip: Use prayer times to segment your day into blocks. Schedule high-priority work tasks for the early morning after Fajr when your mind is freshest. Plan lighter tasks or breaks around Dhuhr and Asr, and family time or relaxation after Maghrib and Isha.
2. Prioritize Your Tasks Using the Sunnah Method 🌙
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us to take advantage of our time before we are occupied by other matters. He said, “Take benefit of five before five: your youth before your old age, your health before your sickness, your wealth before your poverty, your free time before you are preoccupied, and your life before your death” (Narrated by Ibn Abbas and reported by Al Hakim). This Hadith highlights the importance of prioritization and urgency.
💡 Action Tip: Each morning, list your tasks and prioritize them based on urgency and importance. Use whatever you're comfortable with to categorize tasks into four categories:
Urgent and important
Important but not urgent
Urgent but not important
Neither urgent nor important
3. Implement the Pomodoro Technique with a Twist ⏰
The Pomodoro Technique, where you work in concentrated bursts (traditionally 25 minutes) followed by short breaks, aligns well with the natural rhythm suggested by intermittent periods of worship. Adapting this method can boost focus and prevent burnout.
💡 Action Tip: Work in focused, 25-minute intervals followed by a 5-minute break to make Dhikr or perform a brief prayer, combining productivity with remembrance of Allah.
4. Utilize Technology Mindfully 📲
In an era where digital distractions are rampant, using technology wisely can significantly improve how you manage time. Apps that limit social media use or block distractions can help maintain focus during work or study sessions.
💡 Action Tip: Leverage apps like Tarteel for Quran memorization and review during breaks or as a start to your day, making productive use of technology in enhancing your spiritual practice.
5. Conduct Weekly Reviews Inspired by Muhasabah (Self-Reflection) 📋
Muhasabah, or self-reflection, is a practice highly recommended in Islam. It involves reviewing one’s actions and intentions to improve oneself continuously. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, “The smart one is he who judges himself and works for what comes after death…” (Tirmidhi).
💡 Action Tip: Dedicate time each week to review your schedule and assess your productivity levels. Reflect on what tasks were completed, what weren’t, and why. Plan adjustments for the following week to better align your activities with your spiritual and worldly goals.
Enhancing time management as a Muslim is not just about increasing productivity but also about enriching your spiritual life and making the most of every moment as a blessing from Allah. By integrating these techniques into your daily routine, you can achieve a balanced, fulfilling life that honors both your worldly duties and your faith.

Subhan Allah I have a story my grandmother told us. It was a very rainy night this person who was traveling from a town to other town he couldn’t find a place to stay so he knocked a door of a person who his wife just gave birth to a little girl. So the traveler noticed his name was written in her forehead. The traveler thought of himself, how that can happen looking at the age difference she just born so he tried to kill this new born girl he did and he thought it happened. So he ran away. Years passed. The girl didn’t die she became a beautiful woman, and some how the man heard about her and he sent a family member to ask for her hand. Since he was a very good person with good status so her father said yes. They got married. When he saw her scar he questioned her when she said the story. He said Alhamdulillah what Allah already wrote your destiny you can’t change it no matter what. I learned a good lesson from this story. I love it 🤲🏻

Summary?

[@Khabib9-z8w]

1 thing to get the population to going is to procreate that’s why Allah create loneliness and nafs,so that we will want to be with the opposite sex tru the lawful halal way that it marriage/nikah just like Adam As when he was first man he was loney before Hawa came Allah knows so Allah created the first woman that is Hawa and they procreate and Adam As live for 900 years for this purpose,but nowadays there is no marriage but one night stand or live in 😢
