Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) used
to say:
إذا مَا خَلَوتَ الدَّهْرَ يومًا فلا تَقُلْ *** خَلوتُ ولكن قُلْ عليَّ رَقِيبُ
ولا تحْسَـبنَّ اللـهَ يَغْفِـل ساعَـةً *** ولا أنّ مَا تخفَي عَليه يَغِيبُ
ألم تر أنّ اليومَ أسْرعُ ذاهِبٍ *** و أنّ غداً للناظِرين قَريبُ
“If you spend a day in solitude, do not say
I spent it in solitude, but say over me is a Watcher
And do not think that Allaah is oblivious for even an hour
or that what you try to hide from Him is unseen
Do you not see that today is leaving fast
And that tomorrow for the onlooker is indeed near?
