I dont know if this is the appropriate place to post this poem, but I would just like to share with you all.
Imagine yourself after you pass away
Imagine your grave through night and through day
Wishing that you did not do as they say
Wishing that you had got up and had prayed.
Imagine, my friends, the day that you died
Imagine all of the tears that they cried
Remember how it felt when your body was tied
Remember how it felt in the grave which you lied.
Imagine the day you’ll be called to account
Imagine the sum to which your life will amount
Think for a moment of the deeds which you mount
Think for a moment how much they will count.
What will they say of you when you are dead?
What will they say, what will be said?
Will they speak of all the poor who you fed?
Will they remember all the Qu’ran that you read?
Think not of them, but of Allah, Lord of mankind and jinn
Think of Allah when tempted to sin
Think of the paradise which you will dwell in
Don’t wait till later to think what might have been.
excellent, Sabriya786. very humbling poem.
guided by reasoning that is simple discipline of the faith - transparent and dedicated.
thanks for sharing this beautiful poem.

So many Muslims have become Islamists, talking about death, committing suicides. Whatta shame!
Muslims were supposed to follow life, and appreciate it.
This life is meant to be lived, to explore the huge universe
This life is meant to be lived, to explore the depths of the seas
This life is meant to be lived, to explore the tiniest cell in our body
This life is meant to be lived, enjoyed in praise of the creator.
Think good thoughts, Think creative thoughts, be alive!
