Death at the Door

My aunt (my dad's youngest sister) passed away, Allah yarhamha wa yewasa3 3alaiha, after a battle with cancer that spread throughout her entire body in a very short period of time. She had 6 children, all below the age of 20. Mashallah, she was an amazing woman. She had such a great bubbly personality and a positive outlook on life regardless of all the pain and suffering she endured.

Over the past few weeks a number of my relatives and friends have passed away, some because of Gaddafi and some because of illness, drowning or old age. SubhanAllah, death really makes you stop and think about what really matters and the purpose of our being.

I recall a Sheikh on TV once saying that Life is like a Transit at the airport. Its a short stop before you reach your destination.

اللهم لا تجعل الدنيا اكبر همنا ولا مبلغ علمنا و أحسن خاتمتنا Tweet
