What's Next?

It is up to you to seize the future. Just work on your intention.

Nothing you do is neutral. Every single thing counts; every word and every thought, they all count. That is what makes our lives worthwhile. Every day has a different meaning and it is a chance to add something to our book of records. Every little thing I do whether be it little or big, it counts as something significant...Just like every heartbeat. This is so because everything is received by Allah (SWT). The things no one notices that you do, the things no one feels that you endure, the things no one ever considers, even though it is greatly affecting your inner self, are recognized by Allah (SWT).

“AND IN whatever condition thou mayest find thyself, [O Prophet,] and whatever discourse of this [divine writ]thou mayest be reciting, and whatever work you [all, O men,] may do -[remember that] We are your witness [83] [from the moment] when you enter upon it: for, not even an atom's weight [of whatever there is] on earth or in heaven escapes thy Sustainer's knowledge; and neither is there anything smaller than that, or larger, but is recorded in [His] clear decree.” The Noble Quran 10:61

Imagine if this world is all there is. All the people and all their stories just end with the last breath they take. And that is it. Nothing more is there after life? I would not be exaggerating if I said that it would be a grave catastrophe! What someone leaves behind needs to outlive everyone and everything. Otherwise, there would be no consolation for a perished life. People endure many things, even the most fortunate have to go through trials and ordeals at some point of their lives.

Every single one of those billions of human souls deserves immaculate fairness. How is this possible? How can this be attained if there were no afterlife? How can an honest man lie side by side, with criminals and murderers, waiting for nothing? How can that be just, if there were nothing following, nothing to do him justice? How can someone believe in no creator ? How can someone believe there is no judgment, and accept it? How can someone believe there is no superior creator who will finally bring forth justice that was not fully achieved in life? Is it logical to accommodate a concept that can never materialize? Why torture ourselves? If I were to believe that I would not have a chance to redeem what I have missed for so long, I would be allowing myself to crumble and wither hopelessly, and very, very sadly…

What firmly persuades me is that there is no infinite happiness on this earth; there is always something missing, and if it seems to be complete, it is definitely not permanent.
