How to Prepare for the Hereafter?
اَوْلَی النَّاسِ بِیْ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَۃِ اَکْثَرُھُمْ عَلَیَّ صَلَاۃً
"On the Day of Judgement, the person closest to me among the people will be the one who recited the most ṣalāt upon me."[1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:
اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ
A truthful intention is the best action.[2]
O those who love Allāh’s Messenger! Make good intentions before every action, as this can be a means of entering Paradise. Before listening to this speech, make good intentions. For example:
1. I will listen to the entire speech to gain knowledge of Islam.
2. I will sit in a respectful manner.
3. I will not be lazy or inattentive during the speech.
4. I will listen to the speech to reform and better myself.
5. Whatever I hear and learn, I will try to convey to others.
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! This world is a field for the Hereafter. Whatever we do here, we will see its results in the life after death. Indeed, the successful people are those who stay busy preparing for the Hereafter while living in this world.
