“Life” The Greatest Unit of
Time
Many of you especially having knowledge of the basics of Physics know about the
Base Quantities and Prefixes.
As 1 m = 100 cm
So 1 km = 100,000 cm
Similarly, LIFE = Limited Seconds fixed by GOD.
Life is the greatest unit of time as it contains some limited amount of seconds
fixed by Allah for everyone. A man will die neither before a second nor after a
second out of his fixed seconds. So we can summarize that Allah gives everybody
a bunch of flowers i.e. Seconds.
As In Holy Quran It has been stated:
“Their reward with their Lord is Adn (Eden) Paradise (Gardens of Eternity) ,
underneath which rivers flow, They will abide therein forever, Allah will be
pleased with and they with Him.” (Verse: 8 , Al Baiyyinah)
So from above stated verse we are able to deduce that Life of this world is
Limited or it is just a temporary period whereas Life Here-After is the Real and
Everlasting.
If we observe this phenomenon we come to know that this Un-Limited or
Everlasting life depends upon this Limited Life. So this Limited life should be
spent by obeying Allah and His Prophet, because In this life Rule “As you sow,
so shall you reap “ is applied on us. Therefore we should try our best in doing
Good deeds and request Our Lord for forgiveness and happiness.
