Flagged for Follow-Up
Maytham, a Companion of Allâh’s Messenger – peace and blessings be upon him – said:
It has reached me that an angel goes out, holding his flag, with the first person to go to the masjid and stays holding his flag with him until he returns and then enters his home with it. And Shaytân goes out, holding his flag, with the first person to go to the market and stays holding his flag with him until he returns and puts it in his home.
