چُھپ کے لوگوں سے کئے جس کے گُناہ                  وہ خبردار ہے کیا ہونا ہے

اَرے او مُجرمِ بے پَروا دیکھ                        سر پہ تَلوار ہے کیا ہونا ہے

ہائے رے نیند مسافر تیری                        کُوچ تیار ہے کیا ہونا ہے

دُور جانا ہے رہا دن تھوڑا                           راہ دُشوار ہے کیا ہونا ہے

منہ دکھانے کا نہیں اور سحر                     عام دربار ہے کیا ہونا ہے

(Hadaiq-e-Bakhshish, pp. 167)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Death is inevitable

Dear Islamic brothers! Undoubtedly, death is inevitable and undeniable. Every soul that has experienced the taste of life shall also have to taste death no matter who they are; whether rich or poor, king or minister, watchman or shopkeeper, professor or ignorant student, religious scholar or illiterate, spiritual guide or disciple, Muslim or non-Muslim; whatever the rank or status one possesses, one will have to experience the taste of death. Death will come to each and every one of us and no one can escape it; wherever we may manage to go in the world and no matter what effort we put to escape death, we cannot avoid death. The subject ‘Death’ has been discussed in many place in the blessed Quran. Quran says:

 

کُلُّ   نَفۡسٍ   ذَ آئِقَۃُ   الۡمَوۡتِ ؕ

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: ‘Every soul must taste death’.

(Part 4, Surah Aal-e-‘Imran, verse 185)

 

The renowned and respected commentator of Quran Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الْـحَـنَّان has stated in the interpretation of aforementioned blessed verse, ‘Whether it is a jinn or angel or human; everyone except Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has to experience death and everything is mortal. (Nur-ul-‘Irfan, pp. 117)

 

The blessed Quran also states at another place:

 

اَیۡنَ    مَا   تَکُوۡ نُوۡا    یُدۡرِ کۡکُّمُ    الۡمَوۡتُ   وَ  لَوۡ    کُنۡتُمۡ   فِیۡ    بُرُوۡجٍ    مُّشَیَّدَ ۃٍ  ؕ

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: ‘Death will come to you wherever you may be, even if you are in strong fortresses.’ (Part 5, Surah An-Nisa, verse 78)

 

Regarding aforementioned verse, it is stated in the interpretation ‘Tafseer-e-Na’eemi’: Everyone’s time and place of death is fixed; no one can escape death through any excuse or planning; wherever you are, death will approach you at its appointed time; whether you build impenetrable fortress or high towers reaching
