Saving the best till last

3 08 2008

Usually when you have a choice between a bunch of sweets, people tend to save the best sweet in the pack till last.why is this, probably because they want the taste of the best one to last in their mouth the longest. Or if they’re really fat then they just eat them all at the same time. Either way we can look at our deeds in a similiar way.
Abdullah ibn Masud narrates the messenger of Allah [salAllahu alayhi wa salam] said:

One of you may perform the deeds of the people of Paradise till there is not but an arm’s length between him and it, when that which has been written will outstrip him so that he performs the deeds of the people of the Hell Fire; one of you may perform the deeds of the people of the Hell Fire, till there is naught but an arm’s length between him and it, when that which has been written will overtake him so that he performs the deeds of the people of Paradise and enters therein.

We don’t know when Allah [aza wajal] will cause us to die, could be now,could be tomorrow or it could have even been before the end of this reminder. We dont know what our last deed could be or when it could be so we should try to make our current deeds our best deeds in order for them to be our last deeds so we can save the best till last *smiles*
