Now a days’ average human life’s yea according to this, sixty-five days are counted in a year. While the life in the hereafter after, there is another scale of counting is running as the holy Quran reveals” O Muhammad,] they challenge thee to hasten the coming upon them of [God’s] chastisement: but God never fails to fulfill His promise - and, behold, in thy Sustainer’s sight, a day is like a thousand years of your reckoning” Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage) 22:47
So, according to this counting, one year of that l life is equal to three lakhs and fifty-five thousands days in a year. Therefore, the life of ‘Ahrat’ and ( ,aalime barzakh’ (a period or state between death and resurrection) is very long and endless. Now the question is: what are the benefits and losses of the long life for a Muslim or the infidels? So, for the faithful believers the holy Quran reveals, ”
for, [if they did, they would know that] the life of this world is nothing but a passing delight and a play - whereas, behold, the life in the hereafter is indeed the only [true] life: if they but knew this! Al-'Ankabut (The Spider) 29:64 “Also,: Yet those who attain to faith and do righteous deeds We shall bring into gardens through which running waters flow, therein to abide beyond the count of time: this is, in truth, God's promise - and whose word could be truer than God's? An-Nisa (The Women) 4:57 Also, the Muslims have been given glad tiddling’s by saying.” [AND on Judgment Day] God will say:
'Today, their truthfulness shall benefit all who have been true to their word: theirs shall be gardens through which running waters flow, therein to abide beyond the count of time; well-pleased is God with them, and well-pleased are they with Him: this is the triumph supreme.' Al- Ma'idah (The Table Spread) 5:119 And those who are the sinful Muslims i.e. they commit sins major or miners, and they fear Allah Almighty and hope for His endless mercy, and they want to offer tauba (repentance), then Allah will forgive their ins, as the holy Quran reveals
,” SAY: “[Thus speaks God:] ‘O you servants of Mine who have transgressed against your own selves! Despair not of God’s mercy: behold, God forgives all sins - for, verily, He alone is much-forgiving, a dis-penser of grace!’ ” Az-Zumar (The Groups) 39:53 And about the disbeliever the holy Quran says, “ those who disbelieve and wrong themselves—surely Allah will neither forgive them nor guide them to any path Those who disbelieve and hinder ˹others˺ from the Way of Allah have certainly strayed far away. ([al-Nisa’ 4:168-169). And in Soorat al-Ahzaab,
where He says (interpretation of the meaning): “Verily, Allaah has cursed the disbelievers, and has prepared for them a flaming Fire (Hell).
So, this is necessary for the disbelievers that they should think about their destination and abode in the hereafter?
Therefore, according to the holy Quran there are only two abode in the Hereafter for human being, the Paradise and the Hellfire. So, the real successful one is he whom Allah Almighty saves from the fire and enters the paradise as
the holy Quran reveals,” Every human being is bound to taste death: but only on the Day of Resurrection will you be requited in full [for whatever you have done] - whereupon he that shall be drawn away from the fire and brought into paradise will indeed have gained a triumph: for the life of this world is nothing but an enjoyment of self-delusion Al-Imran (The Family of Imran) 3:185
And for the faithful beliers,
It is reality that the journey of the hereafter is long and everlasting so, it is necessary for the faithful believers that they should get the good provision for this journey, and
according to the holy Quran, the best provision is for it is only, taqwa, the holy Quran reveals,”
The pilgrimage shall take place in the months appointed for it. And whoever undertakes the pilgrimage in those [months] shall, while on pilgrimage, abstain from lewd speech, from all wicked conduct, and from quarrelling; and whatever good you may do, God is aware of it. And make provision for yourselves - but, verily, the best of all provisions is God-consciousness: remain, then, conscious of Me, O you who are endowed with insight! ( Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:197).
Amy Allah Almighty give us power to do so, Amin.
