The Most Virtuous Actions Vary by Time and Circumstance

 إِنَّ أَفضَلَ العَمَل عَلَى مَرضَاةِ الرَّبِّ فِي كُلِّ وَقت بِمَا هُوَ مُقتَضَى ذَلِكَ الوَقت وَ وَظِيفَتُهُ

The best deed to achieve the pleasure of your Lord in every moment is that which is required and dictated by that time.

—Ibn al-Qayyim [d. 751H/1350CE], Madarij al-Salikin
