Strive for the Hereafter and Do Not Procrastinate – Shaykh Khalid Adh-Dhufayri

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

O servants of Allah! Remember that this abode is that of trials, tribulations and tests, so walk the path to the afterlife and beware of procrastination and negligence. Do not be among those who hope for (reward) in the afterlife without deeds, delaying repentance because of continued eagerness for this world and preoccupied with it. Indeed, the appointed time of death is hidden and death comes suddenly, so do not be deceived by Allah’s Forbearance because Allah gives respite but does not forget, and indeed Paradise and Hellfire are closer to you than your shoelaces.

Shaykh Abu Abdillah Khalid adh-Dhufayri (Allah preserve him).
