Suggested NEW YEAR resolutions for everyone include the following 3 that should be on the priority list of every Muslim: 1. I will start or keep up praying my daily 5 prayers - they only take up 7-12 mins! BECAUSE Salah is our security guard against the Shaytan. He climbs into the fortress of our Islam by defeating us in prayer. Once he makes us leave prayer he lures us in to hundreds of other sins. 2. I will learn about Islam and my faith and I will commit myself to attending an Islamic circle/class in my locality this year BECAUSE I am a Muslim that needs to get closer to Allah Almighty and His Beloved Prophet upon him peace and blessings and prepare for the next life by acquiring sacred obligatory knowledge and practicing it. 3. I will keep up at least one little good act continuously throughout the year. For example, I will keep a Sadaqah box at the door so I can add donations to it when I leave the house at least once a day. I will donate the money at the end of the year towards a good cause BECAUSE Allah Almighty has blessed me with many possessions and gifts and sadaqah eradicates problems and tribulations. May you be granted blessings, happiness, strong faith and protection from all apparent and hidden evil in this New Islamic Year 1436H.
