سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! In the abovementioned parable, the young man while protecting himself from sins spent his whole life performing good deeds and after his death this worship brought about his forgiveness and he was blessed with the great blessings of Paradise. Remember! Beauty and youth are mortal wealth and being proud of it is an act of foolishness.

ڈَھل جائے گی یہ جوانی جس پہ تجھ کو ناز ہے     تُو بجالے چاہے جتنا چار دن کا ساز ہے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! Instead of being proud over your health and youth and wasting your days and nights in committing sins, develop the pleasure for worship and interest in recitation. During this if you get old and still take interest in worship so اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ instead of having no health and courage, in this state of helplessness, you will continue to get reward equal to the reward of youth.

Sayyiduna Anas Bin Maalik رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has said: When a bondsman reaches the last part of his age (having performed good deeds in the state of Islam), that he does not remember anything (when needed) despite having its knowledge beforehand, so Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ continues to record those good deeds in his Book of deeds which he used to do when he was healthy.

(Musnad Abi Ya’la, vol. 3, pp. 293, Hadees 3666)

Hakeem-ul-Ummat, Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الْـحَـنَّان has stated: If an old man who had been performing worship in his youth is unable to perform more worship owing to old age, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ declares him to be exempted and records, in his Book of deeds, the very same acts of worship he used to do in his youth. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 7, pp. 89)

اِلٰہی ہوں بَہُت کمزور بندہ      نہ دنیا میں نہ عُقبٰی میں سزا ہو

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
