'Force Yourself To Keep Striving!' by Ustadh Kamal El Mekki 

What I love wallahi, when you hear stories like this of people in...they put great effort. I love the story of one of the early Muslims...and he was praying at night and he prayed for a long time and then his legs hurt him, so he sat down, after the tasleem he sat down. Then he looked at his legs and he had a stick in his hand, so he took it...and he hit his legs, almost like a punishment for them, he hit his legs. He said, 'do the Prophet (ï·º)'s companions think they are going to surpasses us by far.' You understand what he means; he means...the companions are way ahead of us, right? So he said, 'how bigger we're going to allow this gap to be.' He says, 'wallahi, we're going to...' We are going to...ya'ani basically...it's kinda like, we are gonna compete or give them a run for their money; Ya'ani, the gap is huge, but we're gonna make it a little less huge. So then he hit his legs with this stick, 'so I'm gonna get up and I'm gonna pray.' So, I love it because he was human, and he found it difficult...and them he told himself, you know what? They were human, and the gap between us and them is huge but I'm gonna force myself. So, yeah, it hurts sometimes, but you force yourself, sometimes you wanna keep going and your body gives up...but you force yourself, and that's what's so wonderful about the narration. Yes we're gonna try, we're gonna try to compete with them.

'To each is a goal to which Allah turns him; then strive together (as in a race) Towards all that is good. Wheresoever you are, Allah will bring you Together. For Allah Has power over all things.' [2:148]
