Dunya! Dunya! Dunya! In our walking, in our talking, in our sleeping, in our hoping, What is the matter with us? Death is all around us, the reminder of the destroyer of pleasure. Death is a lesson to us and yet we take no heed. It no longer means anything to us, except that another person is no longer around. (How sad!) The love for this Dunya courses through our veins, our lives have integrated with the Dunya and our hopes are for the glitter and gain of this Dunya. Look at yourself! are YOU ready to die? Every time a person dies, be it an accident or a heart attack, it is a warning, a reminder, a taunt (it could have been you!) Imagine. In the last few days of Ramadan, we heard of a brother who died. He was making wudhoo and either during it or upon completing it, he slipped. As he slipped, he hit his head on the floor and his living in this Dunya was over. He was a! young brother, 24, or 25 yrs. old and he had only days before became the father of his second child. Was HE ready to die? SubhanaAllah imagine. Imagine if you slipped as this brother did whilst completing a normal everyday act in the safety of your own home. Would YOU be ready to die? Allah forbid, but imagine, what if you were amongst those of weak Iman. Sinning, slipping and neglecting. One of those intending to do good tomorrow or one who used to say, Ill repent next time or I havent got time, Im too busy. What if you were one whose soul became terrified at the time of death and would not leave your body? If it had to be ripped, out, shredding in the process. If it were wrapped in a stinking coarse cloth and then taken up to the heavens. sheikh umran
