1 SILSILA RAAH-E-HIDAAYAT O NASEEHAT Apprehension of Life Hereafter (Fikr-e-Akhirat) Just run towards Allah! Maulana Ubaid Ullah Bin Ghulam Muhammad This is English translation by Muhammad Azeem Uddin of a small booklet written by Maulana Ubaid Ullah bin Ghulam Muhammad in Urdu. This book is especially dedicated to the young generation.

2 Apprehension of Life hereafter (Fikr-e-Akhirat) O Allah! Develop in hearts of whole Muslim Ummah the apprehension and fear of life hereafter. O Muslims! The time is quickly fleeting away from us and at each passing moment we are getting closer to the Day of Resurrection. Quran states that home hereafter is our real residence. This world is volatile. The success of judgment day is the actual achievement and the failure of judgment day is the real failure. The worldly achievements and failures are as temporary and short-term as the world is. O Muslims! To understand the real success and failure we should take a glance over the blessed preaching period of Prophet Muhammad.ﷺ 1400 years ago, it was very inexplicable scene that Muhammad ﷺ was travelling to Medina with two of his companions, having grief of Ummah in his heart. His heart was hurt by the criticism of Makkah s people. Having such pathetic feelings, when he just entered outside Makkah then seeing the Ka aba for the last time expressed that, How adorable my God s house is! Oh Makkah! If your citizens hadn t forced me to leave then I would never had left you! Saying this, his tears started to fall on his face and having wet eyes he then continued his journey to Madina again. At that time Abu Jahal, the enemy of Allah and his Prophet,ﷺ Abu Lahab, the one who disrespected Prophet ﷺ and all the polytheists were living in Makkah and having a very comfortable life. Whilst on the other 1

3 hand, prince of the world Muhammad ﷺ was travelling to Madina with wounded heart and tearful eyes. O Muslims! This scenario tells us that, the real success and failure is not based on worldly plots. Muhammad ﷺ was forced to leave Makkah and the polytheists were still living there. Still who became successful? Indeed Muhammad ﷺ was successful. All this was because Allah was pleased with Muhammad ﷺ and was not pleased with the polytheists. O Muslims! The absolute reality is the judgment day which is coming soon. It will be the day where the paradise will be in front of us, hell fire will be there, and scale of justice will be there, sight of Sword-line Bridge will be there, all secrets would be revealed, angels will be present in several queues and final sentences of success and failure will be given there. That s why Allah Has named Judgment Day also as Youm-ul-Taghabun which means the day of victory and lose. At that day, it will be decided that who is victorious and who is looser. The decisions of this world are temporary. Oh Muslims! May Allah make us understand the fact that the world is an inn for us. This world is mosquito s wing, spider s web and house of deception. The one who loves this world gets away from Allah. And when Allah intercepts him for punishment then his regime couldn t save him, nor his wealth, nor his treasure and nor his wide-spread business could save him. Indeed O Muslims! Who can save the one with whom Allah is not pleased? No one can save him No one! 2

4 This world has deceived many big personalities. Fir on had everything that a man could have. He was alone king of a very big sultanate. He slaughtered more than 100 thousand children but still he could not be offended by anyone. But Fir on was badly betrayed by this world that he claimed himself to be the God and talked big. But when Allah Almighty grasped then Fir on among his army was drowned in the waters. His regime, his claims and his terror not helped to protect him. And he was made a perilous sign for the future humanity. Qaroon also had lots of worldly wealth and he was as much moneyed that a big team used to carry just the keys of his treasure chests. But in enslavement of his wealth he braced a woman against Allah s Dear Prophet Musa ل یہ ال سالم.ع The women gave statement that ہللا) (معاذ I ve been fornicated. So just when Qaroon got betrayed by this world and antagonized his God that is, he abused Musa ع ل یہ ال سالم then nothing saved him from being collapsed in the ground and being made a sign of contempt, nor his wealth nor his companions could save him. O Muslims! These were just two illustrations about the ones, who despite having everything of this world were made a perilous sign for humanity. If we search more than we would get other examples as well. Indeed the reality is that, we should understand the fudge and deception of this world and we should retain our connection to Allah. O Muslims! This world is the farming for hereafter life. What we sow here today so we reap as a result hereafter. If someone plants potato and hopes for receiving onions then no one would call him brainy. But how people neglecting the Day of Resurrection and unprepared for doing deeds that please Allah in world are called intelligent? May Allah make us understand that the 3

5 one who has currency of this world can be successful here but the success of hereafter can only be achieved by required deeds and satisfaction of Allah! Oh Woe! This world s life is of few lame days in which not a single happening of next moment is known. Still everyone here is dying to construct house. Everyone wants to have a colossal and airy house as well as fully equipped with all luxuries of life. For instance, the house should include Heater for winter season and Air conditioner/room cooler for summer season. But Muslims! There is a life of grave after this life in which no one knows how many years we have to live. The Grave! It is the place which is termed as the gate of hereafter s success or failure. Grave is the place about which Hazrat Osman R.A used to cry himself as well as make cry others and used to say that, The one who succeed here is actually successful and the one who failed here is actually failure. Moreover he used to say that, This grave is either one of the gardens of paradise or it is one of the craters of Hell. Then there is a life after grave which just starts and never ends. In that life, no one could help each other. Mothers will not remember their children nor will the fathers. Neither brother will recognize each other nor will loving wife recognize her husband. Even the sons who are considered as back of parents will also forget their parents. At that day there would be no clothes on body, sun would be at a spear s height, and crowd would be trembling by the sound of screams from Hell, flames of hellfire would be ascending like skyscrapers, one till ankles, other one till knees, other one till navel, someone till chest, someone till ears and someone s whole body would be immersed in their sweat. This perspiring punishment will depend upon the Aa mal. The floor of hell will be made of copper which would be blistering. Alas! What a pathetic scenario will be that! May Allah save us from such miseries! Just tell me Muslims! If we do not please Allah in this world then how could we be able to 4

6 please Him on the Day of Resurrection as there will be no mosque for prostrating to please Allah. People there will cry and continue to cry but eventually their tears will dry-up and still Allah won t be pleased with them. After tears, blood will flow through eyes and gradually it will also end-up still Allah won t be pleased. At last there will be only wounds left on eyes positions still Allah won t be pleased. The face of the one who will be given sentence of his failure would turn dark and he will be fastened with chains by the angels and the angels would then hold him by putting hands between his jaws. At that time, the man will ask for mercy but angels will reply him that, The ones who are not given mercy today by the Most Generous then how could we give them mercy after that he will be taken to devastating Hell fire. Hell is a place where if one would ask for food then he will be given a bitter and thorny tree to eat and sweltering pus of the people of Hell will be given to drink instead of water. Hell is a place where people will be beaten with giant iron hammers. There will be gigantic scorpions that if they bite once then one will remain disrupted for a long time. Someone s tongue would be lacerating and someone s head will be chopped. Someone would be given dips in the river of blood. Oh! The Angels strictness and the blazing of hell! There will be screams and begging of Hell people echoing all over that, May Allah give us just a chance Allah! Give us just a chance! O Muslims! Today we do have a chance as we are having our breaths. We can satisfy Allah today. Getting satisfaction from Allah is everything. If one gets every worldly thing but loses Allah s satisfaction then he is failed. But if one gets nothing of this world and satisfies Allah then 5

7 he is successful. People today say that enjoy your school life as it comes only once, be entertained in your college life as it comes only once, be entertained in your university life as these moments don t come again but no one is found saying that please and satisfy Allah as this life is a single chance. O Muslims! Be determined! Satisfy Allah! If someone concerns about life hereafter and prepares himself for the Day of Resurrection then Allah will accumulate the world for him. The one who leave sins to please Allah, Allah will reward him things superior to violating materials of sin. O Muslims! Our Madni Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has been disrespected in the days of our adolescence. If we still don t understand this then how we would be able to face Prophet Kauthar? on Pool of ﷺ O Muslims! We followed dress code of other nations and they made a disrespecting cartoon of Prophet Muhammad.ﷺ For Allah s sake, in the love of Muhammad ﷺ reject the dress code of Allah s enemies. Make it a symbol of enmity. O Muslims! Judging whom as handsome, we shaped our beards like them and even shaved the beard off and made hairstyles similar to them, yet not have we seen how corrupt they really are and how much hatred they keep in their hearts about Muhammad ﷺ as they made contempt cartoons of him. For Allah s sake, in love of Muhammad ﷺ spit on these tyrants faces and beautify your faces with Madni Prophet s ﷺ Sunnah. Have hairstyle like that of Muhammad ﷺ and adorn your head with Turban. In addition, the Muslim sisters should start covering themselves and avoid coming in front of non-mahrams. I swear to Ka aba s God! If the students of college and university and Muslim sisters follow the blessed ways, modes and Sunnah of Muhammad ﷺ and heartily accept the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ then the people who disrespected in past, 6

8 ﷺ will scream out of fear. Allah has given extraordinary eminence to Prophet Muhammad which is mentioned in the Quran and Hadith. Hadiths prove that the eminence of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to frighten the opponents even when they were at a distance that was travelled in a month. The interpreters have written that whoever will be a true follower of Islam and a true lover of Prophet Muhammad,ﷺ he would also be rewarded with eminence that an enemy miles away will be frightened of his virtue. O Muslims! As we dressed in disbelievers manner and as we made ourselves like disbelievers so we are deprived from the eminence of faith. You still have got chance, so recover yourself and ask for repentance from Allah Almighty. Today s need is of such Muslims whose inner and outer fragments are Muslims that is, their extrinsic virtues should be Islamic as well as their inside values should be pure. These are the ones who should make others call them as Muslims and with physical and moral appearance they should look like Muslims. They should consider Islam as the greatest dignity and should not admire the worldly success. Yes! Such Muslims who sell themselves to Allah in return of Allah s blessed satisfaction and the Paradise, Yes! Such Muslims whom blood is fragranced with the love of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and they prefer poverty over royalty. Exactly! Such Muslims who are determined and cautious to manipulate the whole Muslim world into pure Muslims and whose ambition of life is to sacrifice their lives for the sake of Allah are the need of this era. Muslims having such qualities are the urgent demand of now. ﷺ Mosque, I testify that Muhammad ﷺ The voice is coming from the pillars of Prophet s is Allah s messenger! The green dome is asking from Muslims that do you believe in these 7

9 words? If you do believe then why don t you frame your lives according to this? Those who had faith in these words were not like you. They used to regulate Mosques. They used to cry in the Nafil prayers whole night long. They were true lover of Quran. See that some of them were died (Shaheed) in the battle of Auhd and some were still determined having wounds on body. Look! Look closely that how far they reached by struggling. But today s Muslim is embraced in the color movies and nefarious Television channels. Come on brothers and sisters! Let us beautify our hereafter life. So just do repent and become pure. Time is speedily fleeting away from us. Mosques are calling! The dead bodies of Muslim victims are invocating us! Trouble is everywhere. Don t be late! Don t be late! From the pen of Maulana Ubaid Ullah Bin Ghulam Muhammad originally in Urdu Language. Translation in English language by Muhammad Azeem Uddin 8
