Heedlessness After Ramadan
--
How are you doing after Ramadan
Today, I went through my previous 40 Ramadans and How was my state after each one of them:
- 40 Ramadans
- Messed up Ramadan
- E3tekaf — The make up for spiritual
- Various Ramadans in between those extremes
Ghaflah, Heedlessness, and negligence
يَعۡلَمُونَ ظَٰهِرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ هُمۡ غَٰفِلُونَ
(30:7) People simply know the outward aspect of the worldly life but are utterly heedless4 of the Hereafter.
The people who are identified as being negligent or heedless (ghafil) in the Quran have a limited understanding and appreciation of the true essence of life. These individuals are preoccupied with only the superficial aspects of the world and do not pay attention to the significance of the hereafter (30:7).
