 DEATH

 

Allah.the Almighty, said in the Quran

 

Say: The death from which ye flee will truly overtake you: then will ye be sent back to the knower of things secret and open: and he will tell you the things that ye did!". (62:8)

 

Isn’t death the ultimate destiny to which all of us are approaching with every passing day and every passing moment? Then why is it that you seek the world and you haven’t come to stay? Why are you collecting the ruins of the world instead of the bliss of Paradise? Haven’t you ever felt the close call of death as it passes by you?

 

‘Aey! I am coming one day and in me have you to stay awhile! Aey! Make me a gate of heaven and not a pit of hell fire! Aey! I am coming one day!’

 

Ask those who escaped death closely. It is a scary thought but

 

Did ye then think that we had created you in jest, and that ye would not be brought back to us (for account)"..(23:115)

 

So! You are letting days pass by and not preparing anything for hereafter?!

 

But how (will it be) when the angels take their souls at death, and smite their faces and their backs. This because they followed that which displeased Allah, and they hated Allah's good pleasure; So he made their deeds of no effect.. (47:27-28)

 

Where has the fear gone from our hearts? Where have you got lost O the Ummah of Prophet (peace be upon him)? Has the Satan made you so indulged in worldly whims that you have lost the fear of Allah from you hearts? And on the Last Day, what will you do when Satan turns away,’ O Lord! He heeded to me!’, then there will remain no friend… no help.

What has happened? Where are the tears that were shed in fear of Allah? Where are the hearts that got terrified on the remembrance of the Last Day…and you keep laughing uselessly and you know not when it will be caught in your throat and Angels will come down upon you, taking you soul?

 

Till when will you laugh? This life is short! Very short indeed, that wise men said: “When we were born Azan was said in the right ear and Iqamah in the left. Life is just that short, for as if we wait for the prayer to begin”.

 

And when it’s time, desperateness and regret wont help. It will help no one! And you are not an exception.

 

Satan makes them promises, and creates in them false hopes, but Satan’s promises are nothing but deception..(4:120)

 

And spend something (in charity) out of the substance which we have bestowed on you, before death should come to any of you and he should say, O my Lord! Why didst thou not give me respite for a little while? I should then have given (largely) in charity, and I should have been one of the doers of good".. But to no soul will Allah grant respite when the time appointed (for it) has come; And Allah is well acquainted with (all) that ye do..(63:10-11)

 

The darkness of the grave is indeed deep. One day we all will go there and will be questioned so as to what we did. Whoever answers well by God’s will, the doors of heaven will be opened in the grave until the Day of Judgment. But for those who do not answer well, the grave will be a pit of hell fire, the torment will start from that very time.

 

It is indeed strange of man that he worries and is full of grief and anxiety for the ruins of the world, for things he knows he is going to leave behind as time passes by and he moves on to the next life, yet he seeks this world.

Nay (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;). But the hereafter is better and more enduring..(87:16-17)

 

How foolish is one thought of, if he were to fill his pockets with ashes instead of gold if they are placed before him? Such is the case of this world and hereafter.

 

Let’s decide, InshaAllah, from now onwards to think and work for the Everlasting life. Think, my brothers and sisters… in Paradise there will be no worries; there will be the chance of Companionship of Prophet (peace be upon him) and most of all, the Noor of the Almighty Allah.

 

As someone wise said,

 

“Is it not the greatest honor anyone can ever have that I am Your slave, O Allah! And You are My Lord!”

 

Whatever ye are given (here) is (but) the enjoyment of this life: but that which is with Allah is better and more lasting: (it is) for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord:.(42:36)

Nu'man b.Bashir reported that the messenger of Allah said "Muslims are like one body of a person; if the eye is sore, the whole body aches, and if the head aches, the whole body aches".(MUSLIM HADITH: 6261)
