Blessing of Balanced Age

Death is a spiritual fact of the world and no being can be saved from death. Generally, people frighten of death especially materialist group of people as they, in their whole life, remain busy in hoarding money and properties. They never want to die, but unwillingly they die one day by leaving all their belongings that mostly becomes a cause of severe dispute midst their heirs and for acquiring properties they use all legal and illegal means and even ready to kill each other.

Man comes in the world for a very short period and real purpose of his life is two “S” i.e. “Serving” and “Saving” as by means of selfless and devoted ‘Service’, he can ‘Save’ not only his worldly life, but also his eternal life from dreadful consequences. The balanced age can be attributed to an age in which man’s organs remain in order and he is in a position to serve and to save. In extreme age, man organs filled up with vacuum and deteriorated. Also, he completely runs out from the position of “service and saving” and becomes service-taker being constantly. Accordingly, we must seek help from Allah for blessing age not for long age as long age is a curse particularly in present scenario. It is a fact of life that all, even dears and nears, fade up if man reaches in his extreme age. Extreme age requires extreme look after, but in the existing world there is no time for the oldest people on account of which old people are isolated and kept in old houses especially in western world. In eastern society too, old houses are now being built up as nears and dears are generally reluctant to look after devotedly to their old and helpless parents. Alllah bless the willing man from the extreme age, Aameen.
