Exploiting Spare-Time..what do you do?

[husenqays]

Asalaam aleikum,brother and sisters,what do you do during your spare time or free time...?
Spare-time is a blessing which many people undervalue, take for granted, and thus fail to utilise properly.

Imam Al-Bukhari reports from the Prophet, peace be upon him, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, that: "Good health and spare-time are two of the blessings of Allah in respect of which many people are duped."

Spare-time is defined as the time during which one is free from the worldly engagements, which normally hinder one from otherwise eminently religious pursuits. This definition does not oppose the many injunctions which encourage man to acquire wealth and earn his livelihood, so long as doing so does not drown him in the deep ocean of earthly life and material pursuits, and so long as it does not prevent him from discharging his obligations to Allah, the Most High.

In the above hadith, the Prophet, peace be upon him, mentioned 'duping'. Duping primarily takes place in business transactions of buying and selling. However, in our context, as Allamah Al-Munawi explains, the adult person has been likened to a trader, and good wealth and spare-time to business capital which are both necessary for profit and success. This implies that whoever transacts with Allah by observing His commandments shall prosper; and whoever transacts with the Shaytan by following him shall lose their business capital.

Asalaam aleikum

I would recommend the brothers/sisters who got spare or free time to dedicate a portion of it in guiding/counselling or giving naseeha to those who have strayed from the teachings of Islam. JazakAllah kheyr, husenqays.
