A person has learned much if  has learned that death is surely coming;

 

Death keeps no calendar;

 

Death never takes a wise being (Muslimeen) by surprise; he/she is always ready to go;

 

Death takes no bribes;

 

Six feet of earth makes us all equal;

 

No one wants to die;

 

Yet death is the destination we all share;

 

No one has ever escaped it;

 

It is life’s change agent;

 

It clears out the old to make way for the new;

 

As a Muslimeen, We are not afraid of death;

 

Because death is but the beginning of a new life;

 

Each night, when we go to sleep, we die;

 

And the next morning, when we wake up, we are reborn;

 

To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise;

 

For it is to think that we know what we do not know;

 

For anything that men can tell,

 

Death may be the greatest good that can happen to us;

 

But men fear it;

 

And that’s a shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know;

 

Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all;

 

Death – the last sleep? No, it is the final awakening;

 

 

 

 

ﻛُﻞُّ ﻧَﻔْﺲٍ ﺫَﺍٓﺋِﻘَﺔُ ﭐﻟْﻤَﻮْﺕ

 

“Kulu nafsin zaaa’iqatul mawt;”

 

“Every soul shall have a taste of death”

 

|| Surah Imran 3:185 ||
