REMEMBER DEATH

SubhanAllah. We never know when our time will come. The moment of our death could be a mere 5 minutes away. If we could see that moment, everything in our lives would, most likely change. Let us ponder for a moment about what death really is. Our death. Every single one of us will die. So? That’s it, no more life. Our time in this world is brief. We should always remember this. Two hundred years from now, chances are that no one will care about you or me.

We are so small. Just think about the billions of galaxies surrounding our planet. Each of those galaxies filled with billions of stars, many of which make our sun look small. SubhanAllah. Then here we are, worried about things like phones, hair, and matching shoes. I know, we can’t help but be human. Allah created us this way, but Allah gave us brains and eyes to use to look around and see how small we are compared to the vastness of His creation. When we keep this in perspective, we are in awe at Allah’s might and power. The blessings He has given us that we take for granted each day. Sunshine, that provides a constant supply of free warmth, without which none of us would be here. A brain that is so complex, we don’t even understand it yet. Even so, we still use it everyday without even trying. Good food, and a lot of it. We have so many blessings from Allah. What better way to show our gratitude and thanks to Allah than by obeying Him. Allah only asks us to do things that are good for us and for humanity so… what is holding us back? Just trust that Allah knows what He’s talking about and listen to Him. If you don’t listen and follow Allah then who are you going to listen to? People? Popular opinion? SubhanAllah.

Allah gave us life and to Him we shall return to stand before Allah. Think about it. Standing before Allah and He asks you to explain everything you did. May Allah forgive us all and guide us to Him and keep us on His path InshaAllah so when we do meet the moment of our death, we can be of those that receive glad tidings.
