Dear readers,
Death is an absolute phenomenon will come about to each and every living becoming. It is not possible to run away from it. We should not be unwary from it. Death is the beginning of a new lifestyle. Afterlife is a new divine buy in which the divine justice shall be fulfilled. Allah notifies us through His Book and Prophet that all of us will be existing on Judgment Day in this new order and He warns us:
"Assuredly it is thy Lord Who will collect them collectively." [Hijr, 25]
"Consequently, by thy Lord, We will, of a surety, call them to account,For all their deeds." [Hijr, 92-93]
"Closer and closer to mankind comes their Reckoning: however they heed not and they turn away." [Anbiyaa, one]
For this reason, people who have at least some faith in his heart for Allah and afterlife ought to not be unwary. He ought to not wreck his eternal life in the afterlife by currently being connected with this temporary, mundane life. It is ordered in the hadith that:
"People who have a love for the planet will harm his afterlife, and those who have a really like for afterlife will harm his life in this short-term world. Favor the eternal one to the temporary!" [Bayhaqi]
Obey Allah, not your nafs (ego, wishes)Earthly wishes are the primary explanation for troubles in the globe as properly as in afterlife. One ought to attempt to obey the divine provisions that will deliver goodness at the world and afterlife, instead of his nafs.
"A sensible guy worships as an alternative of following his desires. A fool follows his nafs and then expects Allah's mercy." [Tirmidhi]
It is not an easy affair to get rid of the wishes of the nafs. This can only be accomplished by putting the really like of Allah in your heart, as an alternative of the adore for the planet. The strategies of this are riyazat (staying away from the sins), mudjahada (worshipping and praying) and zikr (remembering Allah).
A single ought to not detest death by contemplating it is a poor occasion. If we have this kind of emotions in us, it indicates that we have a love for the world by heart. If the case is so, a single ought to want to attain Allah. It is ordered in the hadith:
"Allah will not wish to reach people men and women who do not want to reach Allah"[Bukhari, Muslim, Tirmidhi].
This hatred will vanish once a guy puts away the enjoy for planet and instead have enjoy for his Creator. Hence, he will perceive death as a bridge to the Loved 1.
"Death is a precious present to the Believer."[Taberani]
"Death is a bridge that unites close friends and lovers to 1 another"


Reside by the sword, die by the swordDear readers mankind should pursue a existence in accordance with Allah's will. Rasulullah (s.a.w.) ordered:
"You shall die in accordance to the way you live you shall be judged according to the way you die"
Nevertheless, residing according to the will of Allah is not an straightforward affair for us. We are incapable servants who have nafs. We are not able to pursue a purified life with no committing any sins. That is why we are always bashful before our Rab. But this shall not lead us into hopelessness. It is ordered in a Quran verse:
"and in no way give up hope of Allah's Soothing Mercy: genuinely no one despairs of Allah's Soothing Mercy, except those who have no faith." [Yusuf, 87]
No matter how sinful, a guy ought to by no means give up hope from the mercy of Allah. Even if he has committed murder, adultery, shirk (to associate partners with Allah),kufr (unbelief) etc… A lot of of the companions of the Prophet have been polytheists, but then they repented, pledged and declared their loyalty to Allah and his Prophet, as a result grew to become the very best man of the planet. It is ordered in a verse from Quran:
"Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! More Info Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."[Zumar, 53].
It is ordered in the hadiths:
"A Muslim who remembers Allah once in his lifetime or is fearful in the direction of him shall get out of Hell." [Tirmidhi]
Therefore, people who have even little faith in their hearts should in no way ever give up hope from the grace of Allah. Only heretics abandon hope from the Divine Grace. Even so, one should not underestimate his sins, he ought to repent instantly, not delay repentance, refresh his faith with Kalima-i-Shahada and attempt to die faithful. It is ordered in the hadiths:
"Die as a Muslim and think no a lot more about it!"[Daylami]
"The believer sees the angels just before dying and does not really feel any ache. His soul gets out effortlessly and reaches blessings." [Bazzar]
Might Allah grant us a death with faith.
Death is a divine fateDear readers,
The one who is eternal is only Allah. Every living point is mortal. Almighty Allah is the 1 who determines how trillions of information in this universe emerge, endure and perish and it is He who determines the way how they will occur. All these are linked to a divine system (destiny). The birth, existence and death of each and every residing being, like other information, take place within the framework of this destiny. In brief, death is a divine fate. There is no creature on this universe whose death does not come from the permission of Allah. Each and every living point will taste death one day.
"Nor can a soul die except by Allah's depart, the term currently being fixed as by writing."[Al-i Imran, 145]
"Each and every soul shall have a taste of death"[Anbiyaa, 35]
Therefore death is inevitable for all beings. The time of death is up to Allah (swt):
"To each People is a phrase appointed: when their term is reached, not an hour can they result in delay, nor (an hour) can they advance (it in anticipation)."[Araf, 34]
"We have decreed Death to be your frequent lot."[Waqia, 60]
Offered the truth that death is inevitable and its timing is established by Allah, then we all need to be prepared for it. A sane, logical individual does not disregard a particular fact that is to come ultimately.
Dear readers responsibilities of guy in the direction of Allah starts since he reaches puberty. We get in touch with this "responsibility" considering that we regard it as a kulfat (inconvenience), but in fact this is not a obligation this is a mukallafiah (obligation, undertaking). Mukallafiah is an Arabic phrase that means to accept the supply (taklif). What is presented (suggested) to us is to feel in His existence and accept His teachings. Namely, it is a religious training. It is "the proper way of living" that shall carry us goodness. We shall appreciate it… It is a burden for these who adhere to his very own desires, it is a kulfat (difficulties, inconvenience).The root of the Arabic term "taklif (provide)" and "kulfat" come from the very same root. Exciting, isn't it? One of them represents the point of view of a sincere believer, and the other represents the point of view of a particular person whose religion is weak.
The provide ought to not be regarded as a burdenDear readers let us not regard the provides of Allah that are meant for our goodness as a burden. Allah (swt) eases the burdens.
"But whoever believes, and works righteousness,- he shall have a goodly reward, and simple will be his process as we purchase it by Our command." [Kahf, 88]
Life is a process that starts from birth and moves via death swiftly. The minute in which we shall encounter death is unknown. Only Allah determines it. We must usually be ready for it. Getting ready for death is attainable only by always following Sirat al-Mustaqim (the straight path). But who can dwell like that? We are weak servants who have nafs. Under this circumstance, is it simple to dwell our religion in a fully appropriate way? That is why, we all require to assess this predicament and reform ourselves accordingly.
We are responsible for educating our children ahead of they reach puberty that they must comply with the straight path which means we must educate them not to lie, gossip, cheat, steal, waste time and our belongings as well as educate them to be away from poor habits like alcohol, cigarettes, medicines teach them not to be committed to earthly belongings teach them to quick, complete salat (prayer), give zakat (alms, charity) if we are wealthy, serve for the excellent of the folks and most importantly to do all these issues only "for Allah's sake". We should increase our youngsters as the servants of Allah. If we do not do so and comply with all their wishes and make them the servants of their "very own selves" then we turn them into servants of funds, wealth and the servants of other servantsif that takes place, it indicates we put together their troubles each in the planet and in afterlife.
But, the door to repent is usually open to sinful believers. It is ordered in a Quran verse:
"and pray for His Forgiveness: for He is Oft- Returning (in forgiveness)."[Nasr, 3]
But a person must be capable to dare for repentance and for asking for forgiveness! Spiritual wounds that are manufactured out of errors do not heal easily. Mankind holds this spiritual soreness all through his life in his conscience. For this reason, we should try out to pursue a life in accordance with Allah's will.
Be entrusted to Allah.
