One should not forget that death is a reality for all of us. All humans, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/featured\/believers-quranic-model-22\/\">believers<\/a> or unbelievers, agree that death is the end of this life. One should not care for this world and forget his inevitable end, death.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What Is Your Goal?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Prophet (peace be upon him) warned us against striving only for this world. But this does not mean that we neglect the worldly affairs and leave them to those who do not use them the right way under the pretext that we are devoting our life to the Hereafter. This is a wrong understanding. What the Prophet means is that we should not forget the Hereafter.<\/p>\n<p>The Prophet is reported to have said: \u201cOne whose main concern is this worldly life God will make his poverty between his eyes.\u201d \u00a0(Ibn Majah)<\/p>\n<p>When you open your eyes in the morning, ask yourself: what is your goal? Is it the Hereafter? Is it what is between you and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/abcs-of-islam\/divine-unity\/how-do-you-know-god-exists\/\">God<\/a>? If it is the case, God will grant you contentment and cause this worldly life to come to you despite your indifference about it.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hands, if one opens his eyes in the opening thinking of so and so or such and such of worldly matters, or how to gain such and such of worldly matters, even it is lawful, the Prophet says about this person: \u201cGod will make his poverty between his eyes.\u201d This means that he will not be satisfied with whatever he gains and achieves. Rather he will feel that he is still suffering poverty and need.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Between Faith the Hereafter<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Hereafter is an important concept that we should not overlook. The question is how to reach the level of thinking of the Hereafter? How to always call it to our minds?<\/p>\n<p>The Sheikh is linking our thinking of the Hereafter with our certainty of faith. He says that the more our certainty of faith increases, the more we will care for the Hereafter. He sums up this meaning in the word of wisdom in which says: \u201cIf the light of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/abcs-of-islam\/articles-of-faith\/true-faith-personal-responsibility\/\">deep<\/a> faith shines on you, you will see the Hereafter before journeying to it, and you will see the trappings of this world vanishing before your eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Sheikh links between the certainty of faith and remembering the Hereafter. It is as if the Hereafter is a reality that you can see. The question is how to reach this certainty of faith? The answer comes from the book of God, <strong>\u201c \u2026 and worship your Sustainer till death comes to you.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.learning-quran.com\/quran-translations\/en-translation\/recitation-surat-al-hijr\/\">Al-Hijr<\/a> 15:99)<\/p>\n<p>When you worship God in all the various kinds of worship, the certainty of faith in your heart increases and you will remember the Hereafter as if you are living it. The Prophet&#8217;s companions experienced this feeling when they studied the Qur&#8217;an and worshipped God with him. It is reported that one of the companions said about the impact of worship, \u201cAs if we see the heaven and hell with our eyes.\u201d (Ibn Majah)<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, feeling the Hereafter is related to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/abcs-of-islam\/articles-of-faith\/the-true-muslim-between-islam-and-iman\/\">degree of certainty<\/a> of faith as the Sheikh says: &#8220;If the light of deep faith shines on you, you will see the Hereafter before journeying to it.&#8221; This means that you not need death so that you can see the Hereafter. Rather, you can see the Hereafter while you are still in this worldly life, and this is much better and beneficial for you before it is too late, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Balanced Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Again, this does not mean that we isolate ourselves and renounce this worldly life. This is a wrong understanding which leads to wrong practices of the issue of remembering the Hereafter. It does not mean renouncing the world; rather it is a spiritual ritual. A balanced understanding parallels this worldly life to the Hereafter, i.e. you enjoy your life, but you do not forget your share in the Hereafter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; padding-right: 30px;\"><strong>\u2026 without forgetting, withal, your own (rightful) share in this world; and do good (unto other) as God has done good unto you\u2026<\/strong> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.learning-quran.com\/quran-translations\/spanish-translation\/recitation-of-surat-al-qasas\/\">Al-Qasas<\/a> 28:77)<\/p>\n<p>Then the Sheikh says: \u201c\u2026 and you will see the trappings of this world vanishing before your eyes.&#8221; This means that this world is of a continuous state of vanishment. Al-Hasan Al-Basri once said: \u201cSon of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days, whenever each day passes then part of you has gone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Sheikh says that if you have deep belief in the Hereafter, you will see this world vanishing before your eyes. This will make you indifferent about it and its pleasure and draws you nearer to the Hereafter and the rituals. We are in a much need of this proper understanding because we always forget the Hereafter and do not think about death.<\/p>\n<p>The Prophet (peace be upon him) saw some companions praising a man because of his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/abcs-of-islam\/articles-of-faith\/building-goodness-lessons-prophet\/\">good deeds<\/a>. The Prophet asked them if he used to remember death. They said: We did not hear mentioning death. Then the Prophet said: \u201cYour friend is not there.\u201d This means that he will not reach the high degrees of Paradise because he did not remember death as remembering death makes one ready for the Hereafter.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Success in Both Worlds <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If we reflect on the meanings of the Qur\u2019an and remember the Hereafter, we will succeed in this world. Striving for this world only leads to losing both worldly and religious affairs. Whereas remembering the Hereafter makes us successful in both worldly and religious affairs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; padding-right: 30px;\"><strong>If one desires the rewards of this world, (let him remember that) with God are the rewards of (both) this world and the life to come: and God is indeed all-hearing, all-seeing.<\/strong> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.learning-quran.com\/quran-translations\/en-translation\/recitation-of-surat-an-nisaa-3\/\">An-Nisaa\u2019<\/a> 4:134)<\/p>\n<p>There is no harm if we care for the enjoyment of this life. But life should remain in our hands not in our hearts. This is the correct definition of <em>zuhd<\/em> (indifference about this world), i.e. to hold this world in your hand, but not letting it into your heart.<\/p>\n<p>If you care for the Hereafter only and leave your share in this world, you are not serving Islam and Muslims. You will be easily tempted because you are indifferent about this world because you cannot get it not because you desire to get God&#8217;s reward in the Hereafter.<\/p>\n<p>We <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmuslim.net\/abcs-of-islam\/articles-of-faith\/duaa-the-essence-of-worship\/\">pray to God<\/a> to help us strike this balance between this world and the Hereafter. We also pray to God to help us remember the Hereafter and make us ready for it. We earnestly ask Him to save us from the punishment in the Hell.<\/p>\n<p>_________________________<\/p>\n<p><em>The article is excerpted from \u201cSome of Al-Hikam Al-Ataiyyah\u201d (The Path to God: A Journey with Ibn `Ata&#8217;illah&#8217;s Words of Wisdom In the Light of the Quran, the Prophetic Tradition, and Universal Laws of God- By Dr. Jasser Auda<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I cannot proceed in my journey to God while forgetting my journey to the Hereafter.
