Allah (سبحانه وتعال) says in the Qur’an:
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَى
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَى
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّى
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَى
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَى
Translation: “So for him who gives in charity, fears Allah, and testifies to goodness, We shall facilitate for him the Path of good. As for him who is stingy and considers himself independent of Allah and rejects the goodness, We shall facilitate for him the Path to evil. What benefit will he get from his wealth, if he himself is doomed. Surely, it is for Us to give guidance, and surely, to Us belong the end and the beginning.” [92: 5-13]
These aren’t the words of any man–rather, these are the words of YOUR Creator, YOUR Rabb. Take heed, because we all will be accountable on the day in which there will be no shade except for The Shade of Allah (سبحانه وتعال).
Regret on That Day for not taking heed in this life will be greatly undesirable.
Allah (سبحانه وتعال) clearly states in the Qur’an:
Translation: Every soul shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection, you shall be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing). [Surah Al-Imraan, 3:185]
Are we any different? Do we think we will not die and meet our Lord? May Allah (سبحانه وتعال) out of His Mercy guide us towards the Straight Path and enter us into highest levels of Jannah, ameen!
