"Let me take care of today, tomorrow shall take care of itself"



The Prophet used to say, "O Allah! I seek refuge with You from worry and grief, from incapacity and laziness, from cowardice and miserliness, from being heavily in debt and from being overpowered by (other) men." (Sahih Bukhari, 75:328)

"Let me take care of today, tomorrow shall take care of itself" describes the two different colures of human nature and emotions. One is "Worry", and the other is "laziness". They are inter-related. We often hide our laziness in the complexity of the problems and the future-threats related to it and expand its territory beyond limits ending up in nowhere. Similarly, worries dominate our everyday problems, and let us forget the daily chores which end up in further anxiety and frustration. The problem gets worse and we keep on revolving around the same scenario endlessly. We become exhausted, hopeless and lack motivation for a healthy life which is then named "depression".

Human being is impatient and restless by nature. In Quran :

"And man is ever hasty (i.e., if he is angry with somebody he invokes (saying): "O Allah! Curse him," and that one should not do, but one should be patient)."
(Qur'an: Translation of the meaning, 17:11)


"Man is created of haste. I will show you My ayat (torment, proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.). So ask Me not to hasten (them)."
(Qur'an: Translation of the meaning, 21:37)


But that does not mean, start blaming the nature. The beauty of life is to know the problems and yet come out of that comfort zone or "laziness" and practically be as solid and haughty to face the waves and cool them down with persistence. Those who did recognize this reality and were successful to stand by it were those who reached the top of the ladder. To gain something different and more, we have to do something different we never did in our life, and that without worry and laziness. Patience is the food of human soul. Take the world as a large farm, and yourself as farmer. The type of seed you sow either "good" or "bad", you shall reap the same. So why worry about future, and why not focus on the SEED we are sowing.

"Only those who are patient shall receive their reward in full, without reckoning.'' - (Surah Al Zumar V 10)

In order to get done what needs to be done today, we must stop worrying about tomorrow. The time, energy, effort and head-space it takes to worry about tomorrow eats up the energy to survive the day to day work. So, let the distress and fear glide on the soft waves of time. All we can do is work, we don't rule the nature, and it's not our job. It's useless to get frustrated over the issue you have no grip on. Depression does the worst things to us, physically and mentally. Half of the hospital beds are crowded with patients of depression and heart problems.

"If I Had Not Stopped Worrying, I Would Have Been in My Grave Long Ago" (Connie Mack)



"Time Solves a Lot of Things" ( Louis T.)



Our history is full of endeavors of such great men who sacrificed everything they had for a cause without worrying what would become of them. Islam and Islamic teachings makes a Muslim a strong believer in Allah that everything that happens is His will. Like He gives food and shelter to his other living things. Look at the birds in the sky. They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Allah takes care of them and others.

Life of our Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) shows how much tolerance he practiced through his life. Abu Sufyan was the worst enemy of Islam before he became a Muslim. The people of Makah boycotted the Holy Prophet (PBUH) socially for three years. When he went to Taif to preach Islam, the people there threw stones at him. But he set the perfect and noble example of valor.

He (PBUH) fought many wars with few soldiers and a small quantity of weapons, but he showed great courage and patience because he had his trust in God. At one time, he was left all alone in the battlefield, but even then, he showed courage and patience. Hazrat Abu Bakar gave away all he owned, for the cause of battle to preach Islam. So were the acts of other Sahabas. They never worried for their future, but there prosperity was restored and Allah gave them victory.

All the prophets were sent for great cause, and they could only achieve it with heart of iron and patience like stone. History is full of such examples. If we look at the mughal empire, early mughals took hardships to make a strong empire. Sultan Mehmood Ghaznavi struggled for 30 years against the Rajput princess of India, and at last conquered northern part of this country. And the latter ones took it easy. The successors of Aurangzeb were both weak and incompetent. The later Mughals spent more time in their harems and in pleasure and soon lost control of the state's leading to fall of the Mughal's golden age.

Life of Quaid-e-Azam teaches the lesson of patience and perseverance. The people of that time gave over their belongings and came to live on footpaths but the sacrifices they made for a separate nation made an astonishing history would they have feared and tamed, with their hearts overwhelmed with floods of anxiety of food, clothes, future, prosperity, Pakistan would have been a dream and in closed books.

i attempted this essay in the currently held examination and i think i did quite well. i went into its favor by arguing that one should not spoil his present by having reveries and fears of tomorrow.
