Tremendous loss on missing a single Salaat

 

 

 

 

 

Hadhrat Naufil bin Mu'aawiyah (Radhiyallaho anho) narrates that he heard the Prophet (Sallallaho alaihe wasallam) saying, "A person who has missed one salaat is like one who has lost all his family and wealth." {Ahmad}

 

 

Salaat is missed usually when either a person is in the company of his family members or is in pursuit of money.

 

 

According to this hadith, the ultimate loss sustained in missing a salaat is in no way less than the loss of the whole family and property. In other words, if we miss a salaat we should be as much grieved as when we lose all of our folk and entire belongings. If we are cautioned by some reliable person about the presence of gangsters on a certain road, where people are robbed and killed during the night, we need a lion's heart to ignore the caution and travel on that road even during the day time. Strange enough to note that we have been cautioned again and again by the Prophet (Sallalaho alaihe wasallam) and we do believe that he was really the true Messenger of Allah, yet we heed not the caution and go on missing salaat one after the other.
