Haashim Posted August 9, 2003 Here is a true incident of two Muslim friends who died in an accident. The incident took place in 2001 in Toronto, Canada. One of the brothers who died was our neighbour. His name was Samanthar. He was a teenager and had great dreams for the future. We would visit him sometimes to talk about the purpose of life. Due to the pressure from friends, he would always say "Insha-Allah" and hope to start doing things in the near future. Then one day, it all came to an end. Brother Samanthar along with another brother was driving a car at night around 9:00 p.m. At one place, they stopped the car as the traffic light turned red. Far behind them was a police car that was chasing a stolen van. The van came really fast and hit Samanthar's car from the back. Instantly, the two brothers passed away. May Allah forgive them and cover them with His mercy. Everyone, mainly the youth, should take a lesson from this incident that death is unpredictable. No one should delay practising Islam for a later time as that time may never come. Let's make a strong commitment to start today. May Allah make it easy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haashim Posted August 12, 2003 AAMMIIN, and thanks Sister. There is nothing better than the HUSNUL KHATIMA, A BETTER END, and one haddith narrator (i forgot his name) said i met 70 of the Sahaba (R.A) and many other Taabiciin (R.A) they were all asking ALLAH a HUSNUL KHATIMA.

Thinkerman Posted August 13, 2003 Thx very much for the reminder Muraad. Indeed Death is something that we should all try to rember on a day to day basis because some day we too will have to taste death and its better we be prepared for it. It is a sad story and unfortunately too many people are dealying practising and implementing islam fully in ther lives. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoMaD_CrEEpA Posted August 20, 2003 Muraad thank you... for sharing with us this painful but true story, the same for the other sistah ... its true death is envitable and its the only guarantee in this world! also we must not forget that death does not come to us ... but rather we go to death when our time is up! May Allah give us hassana in this dunya and the hereafter and protect us all from naara jahaanam! ameen! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mujahida Posted August 20, 2003 May Allah grant those that died Forgiveness Ameen. It's very unbelievable how one can be sitting right beside you and the next minute they're gone. Eventhough it's hard to believe, I know that it's Allah's power and Haq. What I know for sure is this " just the way we're talking of our friends & loved ones now having passed away" That way one day others will be talking about us. I mean we'll be gone. Just like the way they were taken. The thought of that Shows me that Duniya is NOTHING but AKHIRA is everything. Ma'Salama Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
