Death
will surely carry man off. On the day of death the angels will come to take man
before his Lord (The Creator).
It
will not be long before man is carried off, but people know only about this
happening to others; they do not realize that the same fate awaits them. They
gossip about the demise of others, but they forget that one day the angels will
also take them before the Lord to be judged.
People
are good at finding faults in others, but they would do better to find faults
in themselves.
They
try to save themselves by justifying their actions, but they can only be saved
by admitting their faults.
The
day when man is taken before God will be the most awesome of days. If one is
really aware of what this day means, one’s whole life will change. One will
live in this world, but one’s mind will be focused on the Hereafter. One will
weigh oneself today on the divine scales of justice on which everyone will be
placed after death.
One
who fears the hand of God will look on everyone’s death as if it were his own.
When he sees someone being taken to a human court in handcuffs, he will think
of his own fate, when he is brought into the Devine Court to be judged by the
Lord of the Universe.
