Just close your eyes and imagine,
Finally, Your silence breaks away;
You tell the angels you believe in Allah,
And for him, you did pray;
You say as tears are pouring down your face
Please, Allah, forgive me,
For the sins that I committed,
Have mercy is my plea!

Just close your eyes and imagine,
That the smell of musk surrounds you,
From your head down to your feet;
You realize Allah forgave you,
Hell fire you did defeat;

But we all know as Muslims,
When it's time for you to die;
You'll not be given a second chance,
To say a last goodbye;

So live each day as If it's your last,
And never forget to pray;
So when the angels come to ask,
You'll know the words to say.



Remember Brother & Sisters...we are all here in this world for just awhile...make the most of everyday & do what's required if not more

Come to think of it, how long is a person's life in this world? How far is death? When a person is born, Azaan is said in his ears. He then lives a life of, say 60years. Then when he dies, shortly afterwards is the Namaaz-e Janaaza prayed. So how long is his life? 60 years? Wrong!
Think... If some was to have a life span of e.g 60 years (and Allah knows best) You could say half of that life is spent sleeping, so they would have 30 years of of actually being awake!

Say 10 years of that is spent in the bathroom e.g taking a shower/bath, going to the toilet, brushing their teeth and washing their face etc. I mean probably half of a girls life is spent looking in the mirror alone!

So now they would have 20 years of living left. Spending another 5 years for eating and drinking. What about shopping and going to school...WATCHING TV ?! So life is cut pretty slim if we think about it, hmmm 15 years?

Soooo many people waste their lives for this world, how about the next? How long do we have to proove to God that we are worth jannah? NOT long, like is said maybe 15 years or more. That's just an example of ones days put together (it obviously changes from person to person...depends how lazy or distracted by this world they are)

Only Allah knows how long we are going to live for, could be 60 years, could be less or more. It's up to us to choose what we do with our short lives.



Our whole life is like the brief period of time between Azaan and Jamaat.


Narrated Ibn Umar (radhiallahu anhu):

The Prophet (salallahu alaihi wasallam) said, "The keys of the unseen are five and none knows them but Allah:

(1) None knows what is in the womb but Allah,

(2) No one knows what will happen tomorrow but Allah,

(3) None knows when it will rain but Allah,

(4) None knows where he will die but Allah, and

(5) None knows when the Hour will be established but Allah.

Sahih Bukhari - Hadith
