Tommrow is my Birthday- A year closer to death!

When I was younger, I was *terrified* of death and dying, to the extent that I would have the most horrible nightmares about it.

Naturally, death is something unknown and unseen, we feel a certain apprehension or uncertainty towards it, but not fear.

When we say 'inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'oon' it's meaning is actually so comforting 'to Allah swt we belong and to Him we shall return'. So death isn't the end or separation, it is a reunion with your Creator, and we should strive to make it a beautiful one.

We weren't made for this dunya, but for Jannah - may we all meet there one day.

آمين يا رب العالمين

You weren't born yet when I was growing up.

I feel uneasy about the idea of "not wanting to die" or having the feeling of "wanting to stay in this world" I seriously do not like it.

While I do fear the state I may die in, I find it delusional to want to escape death and to "stay in this world". Everyone will die, except the Creator Allah.

So why bother escaping death lmao lol. I find it pathetic.
