Summary
This Bayan Linnas states that the time people have is very limited compared to their obligations, so it must be managed well and filled with beneficial matters. Its advice includes setting aside time for the hereafter such as congregational prayers and prayers at the mosque with the family, endowing wealth even in small amounts, treating all creation well, and saving time through modern conveniences in order to fill it with rewarded deeds. The Prophet SAW is presented as the foremost example in preserving time.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
