Those who do not obey the commands of Allah (S.

Those who do not obey the commands of Allah (S.W.T.) and do not believe in Him will suffer because they will be unable to give up the pleasures of this world. It will be very hard for them to leave its amusements. Unlike the Kafir, a Mo'meens' death will be the complete opposite. For him, tasting death will be like removing old, shabby clothes and wearing new, beautiful ones.

Because, he truly believed in the unseen world and remained faithful to Allah (S.W.T.) and His prophets, the Believer will gracefully enter Jannah. He will have finally achieved his wish to embrace the sweetness of death and meet with his Lord. FOLLOWERS OF THE HEREAFTER The Believers are those who love Allah (S.W.T.), accept His true message and seek His obedience and pleasure. They remain patient and steadfast in their deeds in order to accumulate their good deeds.

They choose to remain pure as the servants of Allah (S.W.T.) and they worship and serve Him alone. They live simple lives and prefer not to indulge in materialistic activities and worldly temptations. They accept all difficulties that come their way and all sorts of hardships just for His sake. On the eve of Ashura (10th Muharram), our 3rd Holy Imam Hussayn (a.s.) said: "Oh my beloved friends, Oh You who have been exalted with a high status in faith and piety!

Perform Jehad against the enemies and in defence of Islam and its divine values. I remind you that death is a bridge and transition to the next world. Is there anyone who does not want to free himself from remaining prisoners of this world? Rise above all and gain His acceptance.

Death is indeed a garden for freedom seekers, surely the lovers of this world are indeed the lovers of being imprisoned." Our 4th Holy Imam, al-Sajjad (a.s.) says: "Death for a believer is like wearing beautiful clothes and removal of dirty clothes, thus removing all chains from the body. "Death for a believer is a means to the most exalted abode, but for a Kafir, it is like wearing the dirtiest clothes and entering the wildest of places.

"It is a prestigious and honourable thing for believers." A Holy Verse The Qur'an reminds us all about death saying: "Every soul shall taste death; We try you with evil and with good (by way of) a test; and unto Us shall you (all) be returned." Sura Ambiya, Verse 35 SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT… Death is a natural course of action, not an ending to life, but a journey to a new life.
