Not just a deed.

Assalamu alaikum Biggrin

Just a reminder that no deed is just a deed.

If you just intend to do a good deed that's already one good deed and you'll recieve one hasanat(reward) and one good deed could always lead you to another, for example.

You make the intention to go to the masjid for salat, you walk to the masjid and for every step you take you are rewarded, you wouldn't have got this reward had you chose to stay at home. When you enter the masjid you see some brothers and you say "Assalamu alaikum" and smile, again some more rewards. You pray in congregation and you're reward is multiplied for every person in that jamaat. After salat, everyone may start to do dhikr which you may not have done had you stayed at home. Sometimes there are lectures taking place or you end up reading some Qur'an or atleast listening to it's recitation, again some more reward.

The same chain reaction takes place when you do the opposite, when you do a bad deed it usually leads to another bad deed. You might be thinking for example freemixing with the opposute gender is minor but it could also lead to you lieing to your parents, missing salat, zina of the eyes, ear etc. and then lead to worse sins.

Remember that no deed is just a deed and that we will be accountable for every little thing we've done, said, written or even thought of.

If you in a chain of sins then break that chain insha Allah with...just one deed Smile remember no deed is just a deed. You could even say that one deed drops a seed and that grows to be another. Smile

May Allah guide us all. Ameen. All good that i have said is from Allah and if i have said anything wrong may Allah forgive me.

فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ

Then shall anyone who has done an atom's weight of good, see it!

وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ

And anyone who has done an atom's weight of evil, shall see it.

True words. The more good you do, the more you're gna carry on doing. And when you slip, you're more likely to carry on going down the wrong path if you don't take quick action to rectify it!

"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi

i remember someone telling me something similar.
i really like the example, about making salat at the mosque

do u know where/from who it originates?

Don't just do something! Stand there.

Since you asked... I got it from Anwar Al Awlaki, but i can't remember which lecture from. Didn't mention it before cause i know not everybody's a fan of his talks.

Alhamdulillah i take what's good from anyone.
