Time Is Not Money (The Muslim's Duty Regarding Time)

Islam encourages Muslims to care for time, to utilize it and not to
waste it. Besides, it holds them responsible for their time. The
Righteous Salaf were aware of that responsibility, so they acted
accordingly. Describing their care for time, Hassan Al-Basry said, "I
saw those people and how they were more careful about their time than
about their Dirhams and Dinars [i.e. their money]." [Abdullah Ibn-Al-
Mubarak, "Az-Zuhd" (Asceticism), p.51.]

An important requirement for a Muslim's life is to be careful about
time, to invest it wisely and to benefit from it. In this regard, Ibn-
ul Qayyim says, "The highest, most worthy and most useful of
reflection is what is intended for Allah and the Hereafter. There are
various forms of reflection intended for Allah. One of them is
reflecting on time duty and function and focusing entirely on it, for
the knowledgeable one is the breed of his time. If he wastes it, all
his interests are wasted, for all interests arise from time. If he
wastes his time, he can never regain it." Also, Imam Shafi'i
said, "Out of my company with Sufis, I benefited only two things, one
of which is their saying: like a sword, time will cut you if you do
not cut it. ..." In other words, if you do not spend time doing
something useful, you are the loser by wasting it.

As expressed by Imam Hassan Al-Banna, "Time is life itself." This
reflects Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah's saying: "One's time is in fact his
age. It is the material of his eternal life either in everlasting joy
or painful torture. It passes more quickly than clouds do. It is only
the time one dedicates to Allah that constitutes one's real life and
age. The rest does not count; the life he leads in it is only animal
life. Compared to a life of indulgence in appetitive activities,
false aspirations and negligence of Allah's remembrance - and at best
in sleep and being idle - death is a much better alternative."

Time is considered a vehicle for work. According to Ibn-ul-
Qayyim, "The year is like a tree, months are its branches, days are
the branch sticks, hours are its leaves, and the breaths are its
fruits. Therefore, if one's breaths are in obedience [to Allah and
His Messenger], the fruits of his tree are good. If they are in
disobedience, his fruits are bitter. The harvest is on the Appointed
Day, when one's fruits are found out to be either good or bitter."

Such is the Islamic view of time, and such were the ways of the Salaf
ways with it. How do we compare with them now?! Obviously, there is a
big gap between the way they cared for time and the way we are
wasting it. The sad and painful thing about us now is that "our
nation has been improvising ways of wasting time at the public and
the private levels. As a result, the world is already proceeding to
the future without us, as if we were the 'orphans of history'. If
such improvisation is not directed to investing and utilizing our
time properly, the gap between us and the future will widen further,
and we will remain importers and consumers of cultural products.
Eventually, our survival will be entirely dependent on the producers
of those products." [Khuldun Al-Ahdab, "Reflections on the Value of
Time"] Therefore, Muslims must unite their efforts to identify
weaknesses for treatment, and must give time its due attention as
demanded by Islam.

The following are some of the most important duties demanded of
Muslims:

1Ensuring benefiting from time

2Utilizing leisure time

3Racing for good deeds

4Learning from the passage of time

5Seeking the superior times

6Planning and organizing time

7Fulfillment of time commitments

8Necessary awareness of time wasters
