Love of God

English book, p. 312

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

After death, all of a sudden man feels that, although his existence remains just like as it was before, everything outside of his existence has abandoned him. When he looks before him he finds no one. When he looks behind him, he sees no one. When he looks to the right and left, he finds silence everywhere. He feels that here except for his own helplessness there is nothing. In the world before death, man was in possession of so many things. But all these things were just meant to be temporary life supports. They were meant only for his life before death. In the period after death, no one is going to find such things ever again. But those men and women who have made themselves deserving will find all these things in the later period of their life after death, only in larger measure, as a reward. But without having been meritorious no man or woman is going to find all these things which are necessary for survival in the life Hereafter. AN EVENT OF DEATH Everyone has to prepare death. The time for action exists only in the life before death. Thereafter, there are only the consequences of one’s actions. Wise is one who prepares for the Hereafter, so he can be held deserving of eternal Paradise by God Almighty. Every man and woman has to face death. Someone will die today and another tomorrow. Death is the most horrible problem of every human being. The meaning of death is: “Total detachment from the present world.”
