Action

Ninth Counsel

Action

My dear beloved son…

Knowledge without action is insanity, and action without knowledge is vanity. Know that knowledge today will not distance you from sins, nor bring you into obedience, nor distance you from the fire of Hell tomorrow. If you do not act today and do not derive lessons from your past days, you will say on the Last Day: “Return us to our previous life and we will do good deeds,” and it will be said to you: “O fool, it is from there that you have come.”

Taken from Imam Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali’s “Dear Beloved Son.”

Take care inshaAllah and please keep the entire Ummah in your du’as.
