Where Are We Going?

Have you ever thought what is the purpose of life? Is life about eat, sleep and having family? We were given 24 hours a day and let see what have we done for that 24 hours. Yes, we wake up in the morning to work for leaving. Having friends and neighbours as part of our social obligation. And not to forget of having family. But where are our lives ending? Everything seems to be routine and what if our ultimate achievement? One day we will leave this world and whatever its contain. Whether we like it or not we still have to leave. We dont bring anything inside the grave with us. We are totally inside a different world that is dark, quiet and scary? Do we know what would happen to us? Yes, we never know but we were reminded by the prophets about life after death.

It is different from life in the ocean. It is bigger than the entire land. We could see the life in the ocean but we could not see ever imagine the life after death. When talking about death and life after death, I can feel the goose bump around my neck. It is scary and frightening. I really hope my journey to the grave to be as smooth as silk.

Everybody has their priority of life. But we must set the priority as Allah wish and not as we wish. If you as your children what is their priority in lives? They would reply number one is enjoy to play games. Second to have a nice food and clothes. Third is bla bla bla...etc. The last is study or reading Quran and the second last is to study and work hard. But as parents, we also set priorities for them. First is to learn Quran. Second is to work hard and study and the last is to play and enjoy. They are totally reverse priorities.

Similarly, we as a man or woman. We have our owm priorities. We have set our vision and mission. Number one would be having lots of money to buy a nice car, house etc. Second is to have a nice family. Third would be bla bla bla... The last would be to obey the order of Allah. See...how we have diverted our purpose of live. If you ask Allah, He will tell you to obey His comandments, doing dakwah and the last would be making effort of dunia that is temporary. They are reverse priority as well.

We can go on with our lives as we wish whether to obey Allah or not in this world. Allah does not lose anything because we are in need of Allah. He knows what is good and bad for us since He is the Creator. Life and this world is full of deceit. Be a wise man to always remember death.
