The first thing the servant is asked

Friday, December 26, 1975

إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا يُحَاسَبُ بِهِ الْعَبْدُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ صَلَاتُهُ، فَإِنْ صَلَحَتْ فَقَدْ أَفْلَحَ وَأَنْجَحَ، وَإِنْ فَسَدَتْ فَقَدْ خَابَ وَخَسِرَ
Transliteration

Inna awwala ma yuhasabu bihi-l-abdu yawma-l-qiyamati min amalihi salatuh, fa-in salahat fa-qad aflaha wa anjah, wa in fasadat fa-qad khaba wa khasir.

Translation

The first deed for which the servant will be judged on the Day of Resurrection is his prayer. If it is sound, he has succeeded. If it is corrupt, he has failed and lost.

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah·Jami' at-Tirmidhi 413
Reflection

One saying of the Prophet ﷺ a day.

Pair this with the daily verse, the 99 Names, and a few beads of dhikr. Small things, repeated, leave the deepest mark.
