Death a poem

newusman

Muslim
مَؤتٌ
Oh visitors in this world
Your final destination is your grave
This travel of yours in this world
Will last for just two days

All this wealth will be of no us
All these luxuries will bring no escape
Your final bed is your grave
And still you are not afraid

All the rich and poor will stand side by side
All the powerful and the weak will be side by side
Your wealth will take you no where
Your money might just bring more despair.

This small grave of yours,
Is in fact your real destination, your real home.
Where you will be asked about your travel,
Your God, your prophet and your life

Haven’t you witnessed any death?
Haven’t you ever buried the deceased?
Yet you are not afraid of that time
That moment when you will be questioned about your belief

Open your eyes and look around
Look at all those who have passed.
This is your first and last chance,
Your only chance to work for the time that lasts….










“Verily, the death from which you flee will surely meet you, then you will be sent back to Allah, the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen, and he will tell you what you used to do.”
Surah Al-Jumu’ah ayah 8

“If thou couldst see, when the angels take the souls of the Unbelievers (at death), (How) they smite their faces and their backs, (saying): "Taste the penalty of the blazing Fire-“
Surah An Anfal ayah 50

And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and (in) His (control) is the alternation of the night and the day; do you not then understand?
AL-MUMENOON ayah 80

“Who has created death and life, that he may test you which of you is best in deed”
Surah Al Mulk ayah 2

They will say: “Our lord! You have made us to die twice, and you have given us life twice! Now we confess our sins, then is there any way to get out of the Fire?”
Surah Ghafir ayah 11

“And the stupor of death will come in truth; that is what you were trying to escape.”
Surah Qaf ayah 19

“We have decreed death to all of you, and we are not unable.”
Surah Al-Waqia ayah 60

“Every soul must taste of death, then to Us you shall be brought back.”
Surah Al Ankaboot ayah 57

Djazak Allahoe Ghairan. Your poem is beautiful.

Death will come to us all. We don't know when it will come. We must think about it every day so we shall live doing good insha'Allah.
May Allah (Subhana wa ta'alla) guide us on the right path, forgive us our sins and reward us insha'Allah with Paradise..ameeen.
