People talk way too much about what they are against, or about what people shouldn’t do. That strikes me as a weird way to be, whether from a secular or religious perspective. Life is short, so it seems better to make the most of what we are given. With that in mind, here is my list of the top 20 things to do before we die!
- Read the Qur’an
- Read the biography of the Prophet, blessings and peace upon him and his family
- Pray 5 times a day
- Fast Ramadan
- Pay Zakat
- Make Hajj
- Say Subhan Allah regularly
- Say Alhamdulillah regularly
- Say La ilaha ill Allah regularly
- Say Allahu akbar regularly
- Say salawat on the Prophet and his family regularly, blessings and peace upon them
- Make istighfar regularly
- Pray some extra prayers
- Fast some extra fasts
- Give some sadaqa
- Make umrah
- Do something nice for your parents, grandparents, children, aunts/uncles, siblings, cousins, and nieces/nephews
- Do something you have to do and know to be right, even if it is hard and causes you pain in the process
- Make regular du’a for people you will never meet and never benefit from in this life (all the citizens of El Salvador, for example)
- Ask God to make you from those who are sincere (mukhlisun), and to accept whatever you did of #1-19 by means of Divine Mercy.
