WE COME INTO THIS WORLD AS A TRAVELLER Life in this world as if you are a traveller on a journey or rather like a wayfarer.
Ibn Mas'ud narrated the Prophet s.a.w. slept on a mattress and it left its inprints on his body. I said "O Aspostle, if you permit, we could provide you with a bed and proper clothes" The prophet s.a.w. said " What have I to do with this world? The similitude of the world and my self is like that of a rider who stands a while under the shadow of a tree and then moves on leaving the tree standing"
(Ahmad, Tirmizi, Ibn. Majah) When the whistle blow we have to move to the next station and when the appointed time come we cannot delay a second.
The shortness of this life is like entering a house from the front door and going out through the back door.
The world is not a place of attachment. It is a place of lesson and not a show. "COME BACK THOU TO THY LORD WELL PLEASED (THYSELF) AND WELL-PLEASING UNTO HIM"
"ENTER THOU, THEN AMONG MY DEVOTEES"
"YEA, ENTER THOU MY HEAVEN"
(Al-Quran S89 : 27-30)
