⏳ Two Precious Blessings: Health and Time

Hadith (Sahih al-Bukhari, 6412):
The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

“There are two blessings which many people waste: health and free time.”

🌿 Reflection:

This short yet powerful hadith reminds us of how easily we overlook life’s most valuable gifts — our health and our time. Both are fleeting and irreplaceable. When we are healthy, we often assume it will last forever, and when we have time, we tend to fill it with distractions rather than purpose.

The Prophet ﷺ teaches us that true wisdom lies in valuing these blessings before they are gone. Health gives us the energy to worship, serve others, and work towards our goals. Time gives us the opportunity to seek knowledge, strengthen faith, and prepare for the Hereafter.

🌙 A Practical Reminder:

Use your health before illness strikes, and your free time before life’s demands consume it. Spend a portion of your day remembering Allah, helping others, learning, or improving yourself. Even small, consistent actions can transform time into a source of eternal reward.
