Time is a relative term which we (Muslims) know 1400 years back from our valuable divine authentic sources, and which Einstein though he was pioneering the idea. Whenever, an entity is giant and large, the concept of time to this entity becomes bigger and larger. On the other hand, for mini creatures the time becomes small and short. This is why a day in Jupiter is much bigger than the day of Earth. Allah -the most High and Exalted and Greatest- has a day which is equivalent to 1000 years of ours. This is why we -small human beings- with small time scale always rush and want thinks to be done quickly.

For example, when we Muslims believe that Islam is the true religion and Allah promised those who possess the right ideology to be upper-hand on this earth, and we have support for this statement by thinking about the richest places on Earth being in the hands of Muslims (Middle East) from the time of it's Prophet Muhammad -peace be upon him-, and we know that what Muslim nations face today in terms of humiliation and occupation by wrong ideology holders is only because of our sins and faults and we know that this situation is not going to continue forever, and that Islam will be upper-hand again as it was, then in front of all these glad tidings still we felt frustrated and we are ever hasty!

Allah promised Moses the Sacred Land of Jerusalem and when Moses was saved by the tyranny of Pharaoh through an amazing miracle, then still in front of all these promises and bounties of Allah the Israelites refused to march towards Jerusalem and fight the giants, they were ever hasty!

The modern Western civilization amazed mankind in terms of revolutions in industry, science, technology, etc. in all field of physical material world -except the meta-Physical world - then many westerners thought that they are very close to Utopian state when the western superiority will last forever and the white man becomes the last and forever king on earth. Huntington, Fokoyama and maybe G.W. Bush they think so, because they are ever hasty!

When it was approaching the year 1000 AD, the Christian nations thought the world is approaching Doomsday, the last night of December 999 was amazing, all rich donated their property to the poor seeking the mercy of the Lord, they never though they would see the morning of January 1000, when they did, they went back and re-claimed their property and thought the mighty Lord has delayed the Doomsday for one more millennia. They were but ever hasty!

When year 2000 was approaching the fundamental jewish groups were preparing to celebrate the Kingdom of David and un-earth the rebels of the Temple of Solomon from beneath the Aqsa Masjid, their elders showed them all the evidences they need from Torah and Talmud, they were hypnotized and are still. Any day they might blast this Majsid which was renovated by Solomon and it is the temple of Solomon where the followers of Solomon's Lord (Muslims) worship Allah today day and night, The People of Israel are very haste to see their own destruction, they themselves -out of haste- are calling for the Day of Wrath. The dream of Daniel teaches them that year 2012 might be what they are waiting for! [1]

Allah has set time limits for everything, we human beings do not know the future, yet we can prophesize based on the rulings of Allah and His divine guidance which was laid down in authentic sources. We are asked to act, to worship regardless of consequences. The keyword is action. If someone sees the doomsday in front of him, and he has a child tree in his hand, then he should plant it! So, actions, deeds of worship, energy, motivation, etc. these are the keywords Islam promote. If a Muslim does the acts of worship properly then He should not haste for results and should not talk about results without doing any action. These are some of the gifts I wanted to give to our fellow Christians (and Jews) who were deviated from the right path both in terms of ideology and the concept of actions that yields rewards by God.
