The First Step

 

The First Step (L-3352)

إِنَّ لَكَ فِى ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبْحًا طَوِيلًا 7  وَٱذْكُرِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلًا 8  رَّبُّ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَٱلْمَغْرِبِ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَٱتَّخِذْهُ وَكِيلًا 9  وَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْرًا جَمِيلًا 10  وَذَرْنِى وَٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ أُو۟لِى ٱلنَّعْمَةِ وَمَهِّلْهُمْ قَلِيلًا 11  

7.  ‘Inna  laka fin-nahaari  sabhan-  tawiilaa.

8.  Wazkurisma  Rabbika  wa  tabattal  ‘ilayhi  tabtiilaa.

9.  Rabbul-Mashriqi  wal-Magriibi  Laaa  ‘ilaaha  ‘illaa  Huwa  fattakhizHu  Wakiilaa.

10.  Wasbir  'alaa  maa  yaquuluuna  wah-jurhum  hajran  jamiilaa.

11.  Wa  zarnii  wal-mukaz-zibiina  ‘ulin-na'-mati  wa  mahhil-hum  qaliilaa.

7. Lo! You have by day a chain of business.

8. So remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself with a complete devotion -

9. Lord of the East and the West; there is no God save Him; so choose you Him alone for your defender -

10. And bear with patience what they utter, and part from them with a fair leave-taking.

11. Leave Me to deal with the deniers, lords of ease and comfort (in this life); and do you respite them awhile.

It is commanded: As you have to do many works during day time, for example, personal works, advising and teaching to the people, so you must remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him with complete devotion in some part of the night. But when you remain busy with the people during the day light, even at that time too you must not forget Allaah Almighty but remember Him in your heart every time, lest your engagements in worldly matters make you careless from the Path of Allaah Almighty.

He is the Lord of the East and the West, the Protector of everything and everywhere day and night. Our hearty relationship must not be with any other than Him. There is no Deity except Him, so we must take Him as Disposer of our all affairs. Be patient over their misconduct and what they say that you are a madman or magician etc. Do not dispute but avoid them with gracious avoidance. Leave your Lord with the matter of the deniers, those of ease in life, and allow them respite a little. Increase your internal strength by inclining towards Him.
