procrastination

"We still have half an hour to the next prayer"

"I can start the assignment next week"

"The early bird deadline is tomorrow. Insha Allah, I will try to purchase them soon"

"Last minute Eid shopping is so exciting!"

As Muslims, every time we arrive late we lose respect in the sight of others. Imam al-Ghazali, in his commentary to a Hadith describing the characteristics of hypocrites, states that the trait "when he makes a promise, he never fufills it" includes specially those who consistently say 'In-sha-Allah' and arrive late.
