When Tomorrow Doesnt Come

[AbuMubarak]

Losing someone you love a friend or a member of your family is probably one of the worst experiences of life.


It doesn't matter how strong you are; nothing can prepare you for the death of a loved one.


When you first hear about what's happened you're in denial you can't believe that someone you know and love is dead. You can't bear the thought of never seeing, hearing or talking to them again. You feel numb even fearful at the thought. You keep expecting and hoping


against hope to see them somewhere even if it was for a second to say the things you didn't say but fate is cruel and you don't get a second chance to say sorry, thank you or I love you.


When you lose someone you start to think about your life and how there are so many things that you say and do that are wrong and a waste of valuable time. You start to consider questions like am I using my time wisely? If I die tomorrow will I have said everything I've wanted to say to the people in my life? Have I done everything I should've done, did I prepare well for the after life? Most of the time the answer to these questions is "no", because we never think of the prospect of dieing we never think what if there is no tomorrow.


We argue with those closest to us and don't forgive them for mistakes. We let our anger take control of us and say things in the heat of the moment without ever seriously considering what we are saying. We never take the time to pray or to offer thanks to our creator for everything he has blessed us with. We always worry about material things but never consider the soul the only thing we will be taking with us from this world. We never satisfy the soul our passport to paradise.


We fear losing our friends and family because we feel such strong love for them but do they know that? Do we ever take the time to be sentimental or do we consider feelings as uncool? We never take the time to say those nice things or to just give a smile to show that we love them. We lead such fast and busy lives that we don't have the time to even say salaam in some cases we don't think what if the next time I see this person it's too late or what if there is no next time?


In conclusion I would like to say that life is too short for arguments mistakes and waiting for tomorrows that never come. We should make the most of our lives and say salaam, thank you, sorry and I love you more often or just give a smile to make someone's day because a smile says a lot more than a silence. We should live each day as our last and live our life so that we are prepared for our death. We should satisfy our souls and pay as much attention to our soul as we do to everything else and not get caught up in this fast and busy world because this is just a journey to our final abode.


Live your life as a good Muslim and ensure that you have secured your place in paradise. Always remember Allah first thing in the morning and last thing at night for you never know when you may have to leave this world and go to the afterlife where excuses are irrelevant, where you stand before Allah alone and answer to your mistakes.


Remember Allah is merciful and it is never too late to change your life.


We should smile more often and not get angry with those we love so easily because at the end of the day we are all humans and inclined to make mistakes that hurt and cause pain to the ones we love. We should always let them know we didn't mean it because most of the time we don't and we should always give the ones we love a second chance because death doesn't wait for us to say bye or I love you. You have one chance at this life and it is up to you to live your life correctly and to please Allah who has blessed you so much. Death


comes without warning and gives no second chances.

[NaSra]

Asalamalaykum


This is so true AM


We should really never be difficult or give the people we love a hard time, we might never get another chance to make it right. I try to live each day as if it's my last.


There is not one day that I spend with the belief of making it to the night, there is not a night that I lay down with the belief of making it to tomorrow.


Death is nearer to us then we truly think or know, May Allah make our last deeds the kind of deeds that will take us to Jennah, and pardon our sins ameen.


Our last actions or whatever we are engaged in at the time when death comes knocking at the door of our souls, Can truly determine our destination in the hereAfter.

Exactly, in addition that one resurrects doing what he /she was doing at the time of death. That is why we look up to one who dies praying, making wudo or the like.


One thing I d like to add here, the problem is not only that u must let others know how much u love or care for them, and that u didnt mean any harm in case of a problem. The issue is that as long as for ex a mother and daughter are sure of their love to one another by default, then it should go without saying that under any circumstances no harm is intended. This is the main problem.
