Question:
On seeking advice from a Shaykh I was recommended to recite “Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanatan wa fil ‘akhirati hasanatan waqina ‘adhaban-nar” in great abundance, due to the unhappiness at the way my life has turned out. Since then I’ve developed, from out of nowhere, an interest in martial arts especially Judo, that it’s almost becoming an obsession. Could this be an answer to the dua. I keep asking myself what’s the point of someone at the age of 45 learning a martial art. Could there be something to be gained from following this new interest?
Answer:
In sha Allah there will be goodness in it.
