asal mein dekhein, yeh koi mysterious baat nahi hai. hamari zindagi ka jo life span hai, us mein shuru mein bachpan hai, baad ko barhapa hai, beech mein youth age hai. hamara sab se bara asset woh youth age hota hai. bachpan mein koi bara kaam aap nahi kar sakte, barhapa mein to immature hote hain aap. jawani mein poori maturity par hote hain aap, ab barhapa mein degeneration ho chuka hota hai. to yeh jo behtareen umar hai aap ki, jo best part of your age hai, aap ki zindagi ke jo saal hain, un ka jo sab se achhe saal hain, us mein agar aap ne Allah ka kaam kiya to zahir hai ke Allah ka bohat bara darja milega aap ko.

yeh yahi matlab hai is ka. to jo best part hamari life ka hai, us ko hamein batana chahiye Allah ke kaam mein, Allah ki marzi par chalne mein, taake tab ziyada se ziyada reward wahan mile hamein. kyun ke na to bachpan mein aap koi bara kaam kar sakte, na barhapa mein kar sakte. wahi to hai asal kaam karne ka zamana, bara kaam karne ka zamana. is hadith ka matlab hai ke yeh jo Allah ne tum ko diya hai, zamana jawani wala, us mein ziyada se ziyada us ko istemal karo Allah ke Allah ke kaam mein, taake wahan ziyada se ziyada reward pao. maulana, agla sawal maulana israr umri sahab ka hai, tamil nadu se.
