Maulana Wahiduddin Khan I Speaking Tree Website I March 16, 2015Time is our greatest wealth. All of us have been blessed with the gift of time, but few of us spend it properly. Someone has rightly said, "Money lost can be earned again, but lost time is lost forever. So, use your time judiciously."It is unwise to waste and idle away your time. It is a waste of your life to spend your time on useless things. You should use your time on things that will benefit you in the true sense. Time is an external thing. It is determined according to the calendar. But the proper use of time is something that depends on the individual's own quality. [Highlight1] You must properly regulate your life in order to use the time that you have been allotted in the most beneficial manner. All of us have only a limited period of time in this world. And, after that, our period is up! We won't ever be able to get back the time that has passed by. So, we need to clearly distinguish between proper and improper use of time. We need to save ourselves from the improper use of time in the same way as we might want to stay away from a forbidden thing.
