Do Not Let Events Distract You from Your Worship‼️ Shaykh Sulayman Ar-Ruhayli — may Allah preserve him — said: Do not let events distract you from your worship, and beware lest you become heedless of your portion of the Qur’an or the adhkār (remembrances of Allah) by following the news, and know that in times of trials and heedlessness the rewards of righteous deeds are magnified. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Worship during al-harj (killing and widespread turmoil) is like migration to me.” So if the reward of migration from Makkah to al-Madīnah has passed you by, then do not let the reward of worship at the time of trials, heedlessness, and the mixing and confusion of matters pass you by.
