Book: Purpose of Life
4. The Goods Of This World
From this we understand that when we depart to the hereafter after our visa for the world has expired, what do all the different types of people take with them. Does anyone take any currency of this world to the hereafter when his janazah is lowered in the grave? Does anyone take with him plates, cups, mobile telephones, clean sheets, cars etc? Does anyone take both cash and kind? He neither takes kind nor any cash nor both. When we leave the world and our janazah enters the grave, a poet says,Thanks to those who brought me to the grave.
Now we will go alone from this stage onwards.
Another poet says,
They all pressed me into the grave and left without any dua or salam.
What has happened to time in such a short while
Those servants who walked to and fro serving one, who washed one's clothes, who rubbed oil onto one's body and who massaged one's legs will be throwing sand on the grave and departing.
