" Al-Imran:190 -The background of revelation: Commenting on the background of revelation concerning these verses, Ibn Hibbaan in his Sahih and Ibn Asakir in his History have reported that the Companion 'Ata ibn Abi Rabah razi Allahu Anhu went to Sayyidah 'A'ishah razi Allahu Anhu and said to her: "Of the things about the Holy Prophet sallallahu alaehi wasallam, tell me what you saw as most unique out of the many states of his."

It so happens that we enter a room for a purpose but the moment we enter, we forget why we came altogether. Then in this brief period our attention diverts to some other task and we get engross in it. And after considerable time we suddenly remember the real task and we have a chance to complete it. The world is like that room, we entered in it with a purpose but we got distracted. before our time comes, we must do something about it or else, we'll be in " khasara" greatest loss after which there is no going back. So what we need to do is be attentive all the time. Keep your purpose in your mind. I know that this is difficult.
