O Allah, help me to remember You, to thank you, and to worship You in the best of manner






Ibn Mas’ood said, “I feel that indeed someone will forget knowledge they had a acquired because of sins they commit.”
Allah ta’ala teaches us in the Qur’an:

“[Be conscious of Allah and Allah will teach you.] This knowledge is from Allah ta’ala, a gift. It makes no sense that someone spends their nights disobeying the gift-giver while awaiting His gifts in the morning”.
Al-Khateeb reported in al-Jaami’ (2/387) that Yahya ibn Yahya said:

“A man asked Maalik ibn Anas, ‘O Abu ‘Abd-Allaah! Is there anything that will improve my memory?’ Maalik ibn Anas, rahimahullah, replied, ‘If anything will improve it, it is giving up sin.”
