Assalamualaikum wbt.
Bismillah,
Today I will write in english and its a simple english. If there is some mistake in grammar or anything, I'm sorry. Haha..
We all know that every human being need some rest by sleep. So the question is why do you wake up in the morning? Who know what the dua is for when you wake up? We praise the king of kings, the One who gave me life after He gave me 'death'. So I'm not going to tell you what happened last week, I'll tell you what happened this morning. Every single one of you was dead. Who gave you life? Why? Why did Allah gave you life after He gave you death?
I seek refuge in Allah from the devil
In the name of Allah, The Most Grecious, The Most Merciful
IT IS ALLAH THAT TAKES THE SOULS [OF MEN] AT DEATH; AND THOSE THAT DIE NOT [HE TAKES] DURING THEIR SLEEP: THOSE ON WHOM HE HAS PASSED THE DECREE OF DEATH, HE KEEPS BACK [FROM RETURNING TO LIFE], BUT THE REST HE SENDS [TO THEIR BODIES] FOR A TERM APPOINTED VERILY IN THIS ARE SIGNS FOR THOSE WHO REFLECT.
AZ-ZUMAR, VERSE 42
I ask you all, did Allah give you life this morning because he need you to go to work? Did Allah give me life today, so that I can take the children to school? or did Allah give me life, maybe so I can go shopping and get the groceries for my wife, my mother, my father, my sibling? Did Allah give me life so I can collect more money? and buy a house, buy a bigger house, or maybe to buy a car. Why did Allah give me life after He gave me death?
You know, how many times do we honestly ask ourselves, why am I alive? what's the purpose? what's the call? Ya Allah what do You want from me? Why are You giving me life then giving me death, giving me life then giving me death? Then there will come a time, it will only be death. People say that "Sleep is the minor death and death is the major sleep."
Ya Allah, why are You playing with my life like a yo yo, up and down. Life, death, life, death, what do You want? Allah says in one clear statement "WE DID NOT CREATE THE HUMAN NOR DID WE CREATE THE JINN EXCEPT FOR WORSHIP ME[ALONE]." (ADH-DHARIYAT, VERSE 56).
Allah created us for worship and it does not just mean salah but to know Allah, to glorify Allah, to undestand Allah, to praise Him, to worship Him, to call others to Him. This is my job, this is why Allah gave you life this morning after he gave you death.
My advice,
Put the trust to Allah 100% or even more if you can.
Why did Allah gave you life today? Answered by Imam Ghazali, "Because my sins are to many and Allah still allow me repent."
