DEATH: THE MOMENT WHEN

               WORLDLY PLEASURES END











                   veryone attached to this world knows, but would
            E      prefer to forget, that every one will die one day.

            E Death will wipe out all that they have done to
            establish a life based upon this world’s values. Death will
            undo long years of amassing possessions and gaining
            other people’s admiration. An individual may be rich,
            attractive, respected and well-known, but he will lose all
            his material wealth in a moment. In a short time his body
            will deteriorate to the point where no one wants to come
            near him; then it will be interred in the ground to rot away.
            This is the final end for which a non-believer spends dec-
            ades of effort towards his achievements in this world.
            Living a life filled with earthly desires and straining to taste
            every pleasure to the fullest will do nothing to alter that
            person’s final end. Death will erase all these pleasures.
            Death will be a moment in which all the desires and pas-
            sions of a person who denies Allah will come to an end; at
