Passage of Life

Life of this world is transitory.  Our life starts and even our mothers do not know when we are conceived.  Only Allah is aware of the time of our conception.  We spend our life in this world according to Allah's commands or disobey His commands and then we shall all die.  After death is the start of the eternal life and the quality of that eternal life is based on how we spent our time in this world.  Please be good so that we can all go to Jannat and enjoy Allah's blessings.


In the Qu'ran Allah says, "Has there not passed over man, a period of time when he was nothing - not even mentioned?  Indeed We have created men from the sperm drop containing both sexes, so that We may test him.  Therefore, We gave him the faculties of hearing and sight.  Then We guided Him to the right way.  Now, it is his choice either to be grateful, or to be a disbeliever.  For the disbeliever, We have prepared chains, fetters and a blazing fire.  The righteous shall be in paradise drinking from a cup of wine mixed with Kafoor (camphor-water), from a gushing spring at which the servants of Allah will refresh themselves, and shall be able to take out it channels at their will.  They are the ones who kept their vow and dreaded the Day of widespread terror, who fed the poor, the orphan and the captive for the love of Allah, saying, "We feed you for the sake of Allah alone, we seek from you neither reward nor thanks, for we dread our Rabb's torment on a very distressful day."  So Allah will deliver them from the evil of that day and bestow on them brightness and joy, and reward them for their steadfastness with paradise and garments of silk."  Qu'ran 76 1-12
