🔴 THE FINAL MOMENTS OF LIFE 🔴
You are lying on the bed, feeling lost, uncertain of what is going to happen to you. You feel helpless, lifeless as your body has succumbed to weakness. Your family is by your bedside… weeping, praying for you, calling your name just to hear a response. But you can’t respond, as your tongue is becoming heavy, your vision is slowly fading. Everyone just staring, you have become the center of attention, but you wish you weren’t at this moment. Your breathing is becoming difficult by the minute, everyone is begging you to recite “La ilaha illa Allah”. You begin to realize that these are your final moments in life. You don’t want to acknowledge that there is no more tomorrow. You’re confound, it was only for a few weeks, days, hours I lived. Why has life deceived me ? At this moment you will come to perceive, that life was just a passing moment.
Regret overflows you as you ask yourself ‘Where will I be going ?’, How many sins have I not repented from?’ ‘What have I done to prepare myself for this very moment ?’. All that I have striven for in this life… my wealth, my properties, my career, my family… nothing will help me now. You begin to panic, remorse, wish you had one more chance to do good, one more chance to pray with concentration, to recite Quran, to fast another day, to help the needy, to just repent. But it’s too late now as you had many days to live, many chances to change.
The agony of death is starting to appear. You feel a tingling sensation in your feet, your soul is preparing to depart. You knew this day would come but you tried to avoid it, did not want to think about it. You would regularly hear on the news of someone dying, but you pretended this was a far reality for you . Accidents, illnesses, unknown causes. Death of the young, old, healthy, sick. But you continued to push the thought away and reassure yourself that you were safe, at least for the moment. You didn’t expect it to be this early, to be so unexpected. Your time is up, the angels are slowly descending, although sinful, you’re hoping for them to give you glad tidings, knowing that Allaah is All-Merciful, you only wish at this moment for forgiveness. Good bye soul. You will no longer return to this world as today you will return to your Creator. Today is when your real life begins.
May Allaah have mercy on us the day we die.
It’s time that we wake up from our heedlessness of the reality of death. We put so much effort to build our temporary life but we forget about the hereafter. Stop wasting time in that which will not benefit you and take advantage of every minute that passes by and live each day as it were your last. Truly the biggest loser will be the one who was deceived by this life and allowed it to settle within his heart.
O Allaah, do not take our souls except that you are pleased with us.
