In this short clip, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani gives advice on how to avoid self-praise, conceit, and self-concern if one is successful in work and life. He looks at an aphorism of one of the great scholars of Islam, Ibn ʿAta'illah, on this issue: "The believer is busied by praising Allah from being too appreciative of his own good, and is busied by the rights of Allah from having too much concern for his own selfish interests."

206- The Rawha- How to Avoid Self-Satisfaction – Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ encouraged us to strive for uprightness by seeking assistance in the early mornings, late afternoons (al-rawha), and something of the depths of the night. From this tradition, the scholars, early and recent, made it a habit to read texts of religious guidance, briefly, in the late afternoon (rawha) time, and often termed such readings their daily “rawha.” The term refers to the late afternoon, but also to a time of rest from worldly toils, and reinvigoration of one’s spirit. In the Rawha, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani covers different texts and gives Daily Guidance for Seekers.

Being Presence With Allah in Small Acts- Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Remembrance of Allah Most High (Dhikr) is one of the virtuous acts of worship through which we can draw closer to Him Most High. Shaykh Faraz Rabbani reminds us that reciting the blessed words of dhikr such as “Subhan Allah”, “Alhamdulilah”, “Laa ilaaha ill-Allah” and “Allahu Akbar” is a gift. However, engaging our hearts can make us feel the Love and Magnificence of Allah Most High. He reminds us that Allah Most High knows all our weaknesses, accepts our every effort, and through His Mercy, magnifies its consequences.
