"Every soul will taste death,"
"and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection."
"So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. "
"And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion."
Every soul will taste death,
For every term is a decree.
Our beloved.. we are going to leave from this Dunyah to Akhera.. it's a must..
It is often to hear.. about the death of someone we know..
the death of our closest neighbour..
that woman has died..
our friend has died..
One day, me and you are going to be like that.. on the news....
"Everyone upon the earth will perish,"
"And there will remain the Face of your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Honor."
I was giving the khutbah of Jummah at a Masjid..
And after khutbah..
I stepped down and started Salat..
then at the beginning of the second Ruku..
my beloved, I was reading surah Al-Fatihah.. then I reached the verse..
Allah, Almighty said:
"It is You we worship and You we ask for help."
My beloved, at that time a man had fallen down on the ground in the masjid..
I continued.. to finish praying..
I Did Salam..
After Salam of Salat, Brothers..
I took the loudspeaker.. the man was at the middle of the masjid, so far away from me..
The masjid was big..
Then I started to call.. brothers..
Because people were crowding around him..
The man was at the middle of the masjid..
I said; keep a distance from him..
give him space to breathe..
let him breathe, may be all what he needs is some air.. or so..
and then others started to call for giving him a space..
Then, some brothers took him to the closest medical clinic
At the emergency site, the doctor examined him..
The doctor said; this man has died the minute he had fallen in the masjid.
Brothers, it was Friday..
He had[Wudu].. ablution..
On Friday, he had[Ghusl].. a bath..
On Friday.. standing between the hands of Allah..
I took the phone number of one of his brothers..
The deceased was called Muhammad..
May Allah put mercy upon him..
accept him.. and make his death a righteous one..
I called his brother Khalid..
I said; Khalid, this man had came from a far place to pray Jummah with me, in my masjid, I ask you by Allah, no one washes him other than me..
I was keen to wash this man myself..
So, I did with the help of some other brothers..
Then, at the solace..
I took khalid aside..
I said; Khalid, I ask you by Allah..
What is the best deed that your brother had done, to deserve such a good ending?
Then Khalid said; Oh, sheikh, we are a number of brothers..
and sisters..
But, Oh sheikh, Muhammad was the kindest of us with our mother..
The most compassionate to my mother..
He used to check her a lot.. he never leaves her alone..
Everyday he checks for her needs..
anything she might need..
He said; even the hair shampoo that she is using..
He checks for its availability.. the soap bar..
her comb.. the incense that she likes to burn for a sweet smell..
Every thing..
Even other things like coffee seeds.. cardamom etc...
He never forgets anything.. he was kind to his mother..
And she used to make Du'a for him.. alot..
I told him that; this is why he was granted this good ending..
"And to parents, good treatment."
" Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you,"
" say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them"
" but speak to them a noble word."
