*THE INEVITABLE RETURN*

*The eternal destination*

Look at the Body, wrapped in its shroud and ready for Burial!

This is us in the future, whether tomorrow or next week or 60 years later! 

_

As Allah ﷻ says 

*وَٱلْتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ*

_And one leg will be joined with another._

Meaning, Al Hasan Al Basri رحمه الله said "These are your two shins when they are bound together"

*إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمَسَاقُ*

_To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession._

[75:29-30]

Meaning, the place of return and the destination. This is that the soul ascends into the heavens.

_

We must reflect on what we have brought forth to present before Allah ﷻ,

Whether we have brought forth good deeds or more bad deeds with us in the Akhirah.

Every single deed will count! And will be weighed and shown

_

As Allah ﷻ says:

*فَمَن يَّعْمَل مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيرًا يَّرَهُ*

_So whomever does an atoms worth of good, He will see it._

*وَ مَن يَّعْمَل مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرَّا يَّرَه*

_And whomever does an atoms worth of evil will see it._

[99:7-8]

Every little deed!

_

And what we have left behind! 

The missed opportunities to do good, the missed opportunities to repent, to engage in righteous action! 

And those of us who have lack thereof, we will be exclaiming on Qiyamah as Allah ﷻ says 

*يَقُولُ يٰلَيتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي*

_He will say, Alas I wish I had sent forth my life!_

[89:24]

The criminal will wish He repented and obeyed Allah ﷻ and that he had not only sent forth deeds, but his life altogether for the sake of Allah ﷻ! 

_

And we have to be honest with ourselves,

That have we really prepared for Akhirah?

_

I ask you by Allah ﷻ

_Are you ready to be wrapped in the white cloth of the dead?_

_Are you ready for the eternal Destination?_

*Are you ready to meet Allah ﷻ and face the Akhirah?!*

_

No?

Then what do you have to do? 

*Repent & Increase in good deeds!*
