             people. People with worldly ambitions count the days, make plans,
             and prepare for the day when they will achieve their ambitions.
             They admit that their lives are geared toward these ends and that
             they live for such goals. It is perfectly natural for people to have
             such goals but it would be a grave mistake to ignore the real aim of
             their existence on earth and run after only these goals.  Because in
             reality, humanity was created to serve Allah. Even if they do not

             acknowledge it, deep down they know it. However, people consider
             this life to be eternal and spend it trying either to forget or
             completely ignore the reason for their creation. Regardless of what
             they do while alive, their final destination is Allah's presence: the
             moment of justice on the Day of Judgment.
               Every passing day brings us a little closer to that Day. Every
             hour, minute, and second is a new step toward resurrection and
             judgment. This progress, which cannot be reversed or stopped, is
             followed by everyone, for:
               Certainly it is to Us they will return. Then their reckoning is
               Our concern. (Surat al-Ghashiya, 25-26)

               When that time comes, everything will reach its conclusion and
             there will be no way to go back and make amends. All of those who
             disregarded the truth, shown to them by their conscience, will
             experience a previously unknown degree of astonishment and
             panic. All of those who rejected Allah's existence and unity will
             undergo an unequaled punishment, for His Messengers warned
             and informed them how to live and invited them to the true
             religion. Moreover, Allah gave them enough time and opportunity
             to reflect and reason upon the truth they were told, for:

               ... Did We not let you live long enough for anyone who was
               going to pay heed to pay heed?... (Surat al-Fatir, 37)
