> Who are you?

> He said:
> I am the money

> They said together: Yes of course because with the money it can

> So they took the Money to ride with

> And the vehicle continued its way until the man met someone else

> the r oad
>
> So the Father asked:
> Who are you?
>
> He said:
> I am the high position and power
>
> So the father asked his wife and kids : Should we ask him to ride

>
> So they all answered together in one voice:
> Yes of course because with the high position and power we have
> the
> ability to do anything we want and own anything we desired.
>
> So they took the high position and power with them
>
> And the vehicle continued to finish its trip

> And likewise he met in the same manner many people which give the

> The Father asks him:
> Who are you?
> He said:
> I am the Deen (Islam)
>
> So the father, wife, and kids said all together in one voice: No
> no...this isn't the time, we desire the pleasures of this life and

> and etc... It will be a burden upon us!!!
>
> But from what is certain is that we will definitely return for you

>
> So sadly....they left him behind and the vehicle continued its
> trip.
>
> And out of no where something appeared in the middle of the road
>
> It was a check point in the road and it had a sign saying
> STOP!!!
>
> And they found a man gesturing for the father to get out of the
> vehicle
>
> So the man said to the father: The trip has ended as far as you
> are
> concerned!!!!
>
> And it is upon you to get out and come with me.
>
> The father was shocked with fear and didn't say a word.
>
> So the man said to him: I am searching for the DEEN. Is he with
> you?
>
> He answered: No I left him not too far back.... So if you can let
> me go
> back, I can get him for you :)
>
> You do not have the ability to go back, your trip has ended and
> there
> is no going back now..... returning is impossible said the man
>
> Um uh...but but... I have The Money, The high position and power,
> My
> Wife, My Kids, and and and and and and on.
>
> The man said to him: They will not benefit you nor will they

> you in front of Allah.... Not one bit!
>
> And you will leave all of this, and not one of them will help you

>
> So the father asked: And who are you exactly?
>
> I AM DEATH
>
> The one which you were heedless of and didn't take into account in

>
> The father looked at his vehicle and found his wife taking control

> And Allah the Majestic said:
