Early rising

 

Early rising means the habit of getting up from bed early in the morning. It is indeed a good habit. It helps us to keep in good health. The man who rises early has got some advantages over the man who rises late. There is a wise saying: ‘Early to bed and early to rise, Makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.’  Firstly, an early riser can take some exercises daily or a walk in the morning and enjoy the fresh air by the riverside or in the open field. The morning air is full of oxygen and free from dust. So it refreshes our body as well as our mind. Secondly, he can enjoy the calm and serene atmosphere everywhere. Thirdly, he can enjoy the beauty of nature which is full of colourful flowers, green fields and chirping of birds. All these make an early riser cheerful and healthy. Fourthly, he can start his daily work earlier without any worry. Thus he gets enough time to work, earn more and become wealthy. Nature in the morning reminds him of the greatness of Allah and His wonderful creation and he feels like praying to the Almighty. Thus, he becomes wise.  So, every one of us must cultivate the habit of rising early from the very beginning of his life.
