We are all creatures of Allah.
As humans, we are not perfect creatures, I mean, we have boundaries in our lives. We are not as perfect as Allah is.
We just try to be close to perfection, but being 100% perfection is not possible for any creature except Allah.
Our Prophet Muhammad was guided directly by Allah, but Muhammad pbuh says I am also a creature of Allah and I am also human.
In our daily life, we try to achieve things that great humans have achieved in history. We try to follow the path of those who were successful.
As Muslims, we believe that all the success and achievements we can achieve are through the teachings of Muhammad PBUH. The more we learn from Muhammad PBUH’s life, the more progress we will make in our lives.
Allah has mentioned in the Quran on many occasions about how a true Muslim can get achievement in his daily life.
So in this post, I try to mention some habits that can transform our personality according to the teachings of Islam:
1. Be A Responsible Human:
We have to be a responsible human. I mean, we have to perform our duties according to our circumstances.
For example, if we sleep at night and wake up early in the morning, then we are showing a positive step, and we are showing a more responsible behaviour.
When we stay awake all night and sleep in the morning, it is a negative behavior.
So we have to fix our sleep timing.
To become a responsible human is to take ownership of our responsibility to follow a strict path in our lives.
2. Reciting The Quran:
According to Islam, our belief is that the Quran is the book of success and prosperity in life.
The more we learn and understand the Quran, the closer we come to achieving our daily wishes.
In the Quran, Allah tells us about many stories of different nations, and Allah guides them on how to live their lives. Some nations get guidance from Allah and make their lives better. But some nations don’t accept Allah’s commands, and so they get strict punishment from Allah.
In the Quran, Allah says that to achieve anything in life is to try. Earning money is not prohibited in Islam, but Allah says that earn as much as you can with your hands, but don’t follow Shetan.
Shetan is our enemy, and he shows us different things and misguides the Muslims.
But if we follow the teachings of Islam, then we can come near to our goals very fast.
3. Building A Good Character:
To have a better personality is to adopt a good character.
Suppose you wake up in the morning, you can do the following tasks:
- Clean your room that is the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad Saw
- Do clean your face and hands
- Clean your teeth
- Take a bath
- Use your favourite fragrance
- Eat your breakfast early in the morning
- Clean your house
- Clean your food crockery after you take your breakfast
4. Making To-Do List:
If we make a plan about how we can spend our day, then it is a good step.
I notice one thing: when you list all the tasks you want to achieve in a day, you get more chances for a successful career.
In the past, I set 15-20 tasks on a daily basis. By setting a large number of tasks, I get more chances to achieve a lot of tasks.
Suppose I set 20 daily tasks in the morning. Now, if I even do 5-10 tasks, then it is enough for the daily achievement.
If I set only 3-5 tasks, then maybe I lose interest in those tasks because they are very few in number, and I have no more options to select from.
So it is better to set a maximum number of tasks you can achieve in a day.
5. Building Interest In Life:
If we spend our day with strict rules, then we get bored very easily.
So you can add some interest in your life. For example, you can buy some interesting books. Start reading any book. Believe me, you will enjoy every sentence of the book if you are in the habit of reading.
We can also buy some well-designed notebooks. You can write your daily tasks in that notebook. For example, if you make a good meal for your family, then you can write a single sentence about how you achieve the task of making a nice meal.
You can also assign some time for your entertainment. For example, you can watch your favourite News Vlogs on YouTube, play a game on your smartphone, start checking new gadgets from an online store, check new places on Google Maps, or listen to some good Islamic Music.
6. Spending Time With Animals:
Animals are also the creatures of Allah.
They do have feelings like humans. If you inspect an insect, then you will know that the insect is more intelligent than a human. You can look at its size and check its intelligence. The insect is very small in size but still have his own brain, and that brain also works like a human brain. In your house, we can find thousands of insects daily.
I started loving insects so much that when I did not see any insects, I became sad.
There are plenty of animals around us. You can start spending time with them, and believe me, they will not make you sad. You will find a joyful pleasure while spending time with any animal.
You can give the animals food, water, and start making a gesture conversation with them. Soon you will know that they will become your friends.
7. Buy A Watch:
If you want to have a good personality, then buy a good-looking watch for yourself. Whenever you get bored, start watching the watch. You will start noticing that time is passing very fast. You are losing time in your life every second. I mean, your life is decreasing when you see the ticking of every second on your watch.
Nowadays smart digital rings are also trending in the market. I am also planning to buy a beautiful smart digital ring that has the feature of displaying time, heartbeat, blood pressure, has a speaker in it, has lights in it, and also has Bluetooth and wifi connection.
I think some day will come when your digital ring will start playing music in a loud voice.
8. Praying Namaz:
When you start praying Namaz, then believe me, you will start feeling improvement in your life.
Suppose you decide to pray namaz. First you do wuju. Doing wuju makes you happy. You start getting water on your hands, face, arms, head, and feet. You will start enjoying while doing wuju.
Then, after doing wuju, you can use your favourite fragrance on your body. Your body will start feeling better than before.
You start your namaz knowing that you get a chance to have a conversation with Allah, who is the creator of this universe.
After namaz you do a long dua. Doing Dua make your connection stronger with Allah.
After finishing namaz your body will start feeling calm and relaxed. You start doing tasks with high focus after namaz.
I hope every Muslim makes a good habit of offering their namaz, Inshallah.
9. Looking Smart:
When you look smart, you will feel a little happiness in your body. For example, you wear a ring, watch, your favourite cap, use your favourite fragrance, and wear your favourite dress.
After you wear your favourite things, you will get inner satisfaction in your mind.
10. Loving Allah:
According to Islamic teachings, Allah is a very loving God.
If you obey Islamic rules in your life, then you will start feeling closer to Allah.
May all Muslims obey Islamic teachings and lead their lives on the correct path of Islam.
Thanks for reading.
Wish you success in both this world and the afterlife.
