Ask Qul - Islamic QA

Pearl of Wisdom

'Verily he used to provide for one hundred households from among the poor of Madina. He liked for the orphans, the needy, the disabled, the poor and the destitute to be present at his food spread. He served them with his own hands. If anyone among them had a family, he used to take the food to their household. He never ate any food but that he first gave charity from it.'

Imam Muhammad ibn Ali al-Baqir [as]

al-Manaqib li Ibn Shahr Ashub, v. 4, p. 154

1288	Worship	Asalamalaikum Imam Jafar e Sadiq (A.S) said : "He who claims that he knows God due to the imprint of the heart is polytheist. He who claims that knows God by name, not meaning, is declaring the contrary, because the name is new (created). He who claims that he worships the name and the meaning is associating others with God. He who claims that he worships the meaning by the description, not realization, is referring to something absent. He who claims that he worships the description and the described is nullifying God’s oneness because description is something other than the described. He who claims that he adds the described to the description is belittling the great. They have no true respect of God. " ‘What is the course to the true believing in God’s oneness, then?’ some asked. He (peace be upon him) said: "The door of search is opened and the pursuit of the exit is existing. The knowledge of the present should precede his description while the knowledge of the description of the absent should precede the knowledge of him" My question is how should we truly know or should we truly worship GOD then Reference: Tuhaf al Uqoul	Pending

2155	Over sleeping	As Salaam Alaikum, I am a 25 year old male who has been facing problems in life due to over sleeping. It has been an issue from the times of my high school. From being late to Work and University upto missing important meetings and tasks which are to be done, I am really fed up with it. If I am not setting an alarm, I can go to sleep for more than 12 hours, which really disturbs my routine. Even if I have the alarm switched on, I dismiss it and go to sleep as long as 12-13 hours of sleep have been completed. Please advise what should I do to overcome the issue of over sleeping? Do I have to meet a psychiatrist? JazakAllah Khair	Pending
