DEATH

Spirit of Islam, Oct 2017, p. 40

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Maulana Wahiduddin Khan is named as the default author of the periodical; a piece that carries another writer’s byline is credited to that writer.

Hereafter, on the other hand, are caught up in worldly affairs. Their ultimate ambition is worldly honour and prestige. Under present circumstances, those who have consolidated their position on earth seem to be successful, but death will shatter this facade. It will become clear that those who seemed to have no base in the world were in fact standing on the most solid of foundations, while the position of those who had reached a high status in the world will be exposed as false. Death will obliterate everything; afterwards only that which has some worth in the after-life will remain. We are obsessed with the world, which meets our eyes. We fail to pay attention to the call of truth. If we were to see the next life with our worldly vision, we would immediately submit to God. We would realize that if we do not submit to Him today, we will have to do so in the future world, when submission will profit no one. o BOOKS Read online or download literature by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan in 11 languages! 4cpsglobal.org/books ARTICLES Read Maulana’s writings as he expounds on the spiritual wisdom of the religion of Islam. 4cpsglobal.org/articles QURAN Read online and download the Quran and its commentary in Arabic, English, Urdu and Hindi. 4cpsglobal.org/quran FAQS Find answers to the questions of your soul.
