Do Not Wish For Death

 

Between her cries, I heard her murmur "I want to be dead!" 

"How terrible could her circumstance be?" I contemplated internally. It couldn't be more regrettable than the difficulties our Prophet (saw) or his mates went through but they were prohibited to want for death. 

Physical, enthusiastic or monetary issues, independently or consolidated can place us into that sort of limited mode. We will in general fail to remember that we have been advised not to want for death. We fail to remember that with death, our difficulties may not really reach a conclusion as we don't have a clue what anticipates us after it. 

When confronted with misfortunes, we fail to remember that 

unceasing Paradise is the devotee's objective 

this nearly short common life is actually a test 

in the event that Allah needs to do great to someone, He torments him with preliminaries 

being patient whenever burdened is a chance to acquire reward 

demise shuts the entryway for atonement 

demise ends all prospects of adding to our Aakhirah account 

appreciation for what we do have guarantees more favors from Allah 

Allah isn't the most un-uncalled for and that we can never verge on fathoming His endless astuteness in what He has declared for us 

We fail to remember that: 

du'a can change what has been bound for us 

with each trouble there is ease 

we should never give up all hope of the kindness of Allah and that our Lord 'aza wajal chuckles at the sadness that His workers feel, despite the fact that His assistance is so close 

we should look for Allah's assistance through tolerance and supplication 

hearts discover fulfillment in the recognition of Allah 

looking for the organization of individuals who fortify our eemaan will assist us with skipping back 

Indeed, we neglect a ton of things when we are hopelessly and our eemaan is at its most minimal ebb. It is at this very time that Shaitan makes an honest effort to cause us to lose any expectation of Allah's kindness and help and to deny us of His Paradise. 

Heaven – well that is the catchphrase here. We need to zero in on Paradise, that everlasting Paradise, not this fleeting reality where both delight and torment are transient. We need to imagine that Paradise where there is no pain, uneasiness, affliction, demise or hardship. We need to help ourselves to remember its limitless joys portrayed so strikingly in the Quran and hadith. We have been informed that when one individuals of Jannah who had encountered outrageous wretchedness in the existence of this world will be dunked in Jannah, he will be asked: "O child of Adam! Did you at any point experience any wretchedness? Did you at any point experience trouble?" He will say: "By Allah, no my Rubb, I neither experienced wretchedness nor went through difficulty". 

So when hard times arise, we should be patient and solid, prevent ourselves from wanting for death and help ourselves to remember what our darling Prophet (saw) has advised us: 

"Furthermore, none of you should want for death, for in the event that he is a decent practitioner, he may expand his great deeds, and in the event that he is a wrongdoer, he may atone to Allah."(Bukhari) 

"Cheerful is he whose life is long and whose deeds are good."(Tirmidhi)
