For how long will you chase this dunya?

For how long will you busy in your heads and your minds - thinking of dunya (this world), chasing the endless materialistic things?...

Allah says, 'For how long will you chase these worldly things with each other? Competing with one another? Until you visit the grave? For how long is the dunya going to keep you away from me - in your mind, in your hearts? Wait till I get you in the grave.'

Sura Takathur contains heavy verses for you and I, will Allah get us in the grave? Are we going to him happy?

All the things of the dunya you and I chase - USELESS will it be when we come to the grave, it will not benefit us one iota.

Let this be a stern warning to the people, the Muslims and my family members(you know who you are) who drown themselves into the vices of this dunya as if no tomorrow exists nor the hereafter. Your houses, wealth, status will not help you one bit in the grave nor the afterlife. You will certainly have to account for every single penny and material Allah bestowed upon you and account for them. Where will your dominance, arrogance, enmity, jealousy be in the grave or that fateful day when we stand trial in front of our Lord? There will be no respite, but there is still time while possible, use it for good.

The worldly pleasures have diverted you, until you visit the grave; heavy verses from Allah to show us the truth [Sura Takathur]


Competition in [worldly] increase diverts you. Until you visit the graveyards. No! You are going to know. Then no! You are going to know. No! If you only knew with knowledge of certainty...You will surely see the Hellfire. Then you will surely see it with the eye of certainty. Then you will surely be asked that Day about pleasure.

After you die ...

What happens happens after you die? Death is guaranteed, its not a fleeting afterthought so give it some real thought (RSA)
islamic-quotes:

After you die


Do we learn anything from the dead we bury?

You have buried the dead but haven’t taken a lesson or guidance from it.  
- Sufi Saint Ibrahim Adham

-Isn`t this the case today? We all too well forget those who passed on and buried with our own hands while engaging in this life`s deceit and deception, forgetting how fragile and short while this life is...yet we plan for it, fight over it, hoard it and for what? What parts of this world, this dunya to we take with us to the grave and to the good Lord? Do we line our graves like Egyptian pharaohs for the afterlife? No, all we take as Muslims is the 2 kuffans (the burial shroud) and thats it. Where`s all the millions you hoarded, all the riches, the cars, iphones, apple products, designer clothes, houses, food...etc? Where are they now to help you in the grave? -RSA

The only thing a sinner cares about ...

‘The sinner does not care about whether he angers his Lord or not, all he cares about is satisfying his lusts and desires.’— Imam Ibn ul-Qayyim (rahimahullah)

For people who boastfully laugh in this dunya - hadith

Daily Hadith
02 July 2012 CE | 13 Shaban 1433 AH


Laugh a Little

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “If you knew what I know you would laugh a little and cry a lot!"

Once Hasan al-Basri passed by a man who was laughing and asked him: “Oh my nephew! Have you safely passed over the Sirat (bridge over Hell)?” He replied, “No.” Hasan al-Basri asked: “Have you received news whether you will end up in Paradise or Hell?” The man replied that he hadn’t. So Hasan al-Basri asked, “Why do you laugh then, may Allah save you, while the matter ahead is horrifying?” That man was never seen laughing until he died. (But he smiled as this is a part of the Sunnah of the Prophet.) [Al-Hasan Al-Basri p.89, quoted in Silent Moments by Abdul-Malik Al-Qasim]

The horror of Jahannam (hellfire) is such that one look at it will have a man willing even to throw his children, his wife, his brother, his parents, and his entire clan into it if by doing so he can escape himself. We cannot imagine throwing our children into any fire on earth to escape it ourselves, yet this is what people will be doing as a result of just a glance at Jahannum. Fear will make us mindless!

On the Day of Judgment Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) will ask a sinner whether he would like to ransom himself from the Fire by giving equivalent to the weight of the world in gold. The sinner will readily agree to give twice as much. Then Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) will say: Did I not ask you for something much less than this in the world? Only a few sujood, only to make your guest feel welcome, only to say ‘La ilaha ilAllah’? Unfortunately, the most ordinary and easy task seems difficult to us because we don’t see Jahannum before our eyes. But when we do see it with our eyes it will be too late to do anything.

O dunya! I can`t wait for life to be over...

The desires of the heart - it is pure or for the dunya?

When the heart is pure, the body becomes pure. Now take a moment and listen to your heart, is your tongue desiring to say la illaha illallah (No God but Allah) or is it talking about the Dunya?

The Promised Day (Day of Qiyamah) - Abdullah Mubarak

image: martyrobertsblog

From: Judgment Day - The Promised Day (Abdullah Mubarak):

For how long...for how long are we going to be heedless of the signs of Allah? For how long are we going to be busy with the dunya (world), busy making money, chasing our fruitful dreams, following our desires? We know my brothers and sisters, that death is a reality, you can`t run away from death, even if you were in a fortress with walls built up high death is going to come and find you.

Imagine your time is today, what have you got to take back to Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎ (subha wa ta`ala)? Have you repented for your sins? For this temporary life we have given up eternal bliss and eternal happiness, a life which never ends. My dear brothers and sisters, even if the hereafter was soil & mud and this dunya was gold & silver, - still the hereafter would be better than this dunya, because it is eternal! But reality is, this dunya is soil & mud and the hereafter is gold & silver and yet...we choose this life over the next. Are we asleep? Why are we walking around like headless chicken?

We will be brought to account when on that day, when everyone is a stranger to another, when your own best friend in this dunya will be a stranger to you in the next, when your own mother is going to abandon you just to save herself.

The day, when every small action that you ever did you will be shown - every atom weight of good and every atom weight of evil. My dear brothers and sisters, this is the promised day of Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎ , doesn`t your heart tremble with fear knowing that you will be brought to account? And how you will die thats how you will be raised.

That day when a child`s hair will turn grey due to the shock and fear, what will be your excuse on that day? When your limbs, your own legs are going to give witness against you; when your lips are going to be sealed and your legs are going to speak and say, 'Ya Allah!, he made me walk to this haram.' And your own hands are going to say, 'Ya Allah!, he used me to touch this haram.' On that my dear brothers and sisters, there is no refuge except with Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎ .

There is no escape, so take heed before your time is up. Ask Allah to make us among the Saabikun, a group of people who race each other to good deeds and these people will be closest to Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎ in the next life.

- Abdullah Mubarak

This world is only the mere enjoyment of deception

 وَما الْحَيَوةُ الدُّنْيَا إِلاَّ مَتَـعُ الْغُرُورِ 
...The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception. (Quran, Sura Al-Imran 3:185)
