Preparing Ourselves for Death
As we are not certain about the time of the arrival of death, would it not be a wise decision to always be prepared in life for its arrival?
Preparing ourselves for death means taking the following two steps:
- Bringing into our life piety and closeness to Allah and constantly remembering Him. How lucky is the person who dies when he is in the state of piety?
- Always keeping away from committing sins. Chances are our death can arrive at the moment when we are involved in a sin like watching a movie on TV or Smartphone, listening to music, attending a mixed gathering, telling lies, backbiting, consuming haraam, giving/taking interest etc.
Always remember: For a Mu’min (a believer, the one who has complete submission to the Will of Allah and has Imaan firmly established in his heart), the arrival of death would be like A Great Gift, a transition from the temporary life of trials and hardships to the eternal life of peace and bliss!
Also remember: All people go to Allah after their death. A wise person is the one who goes to Allah even before his death!
May Allah grant us death when we are in the State of Piety…Ameen.
