Frightened
I tried to sleep but couldn’t from fear.. I’m scared, I’m frightened.
Oh Allah have mercy on me.. Oh Allah have mercy on me..
While lying on bed I kept thinking of something that comes every now and then, thinking of death.. I don’t know what stimulated this thought but all what I know is that I felt deep pain in my heart, I was gasping for air and praying Allah to take away that thought from me. Yes, from fear.
I can’t imagine that a day will come where I shall die, and my life will come to an end. I can’t imagine that I will no longer breathe, will no longer talk and will no longer walk on the ground but will be buried deep under it. I’m not saying that I don’t believe in death, but what I am saying is that I can’t visualize it happening. I really get scared when this happens because I know that there is no escape from death and that each and everyone living on this earth will die.. Whether they like it or not..
For Allah has mentioned in the holy Quran:
Every soul shall have a taste of death: And only on the Day of Judgment shall you be paid your full recompense. Only he who is saved far from the Fire and admitted to the Garden will have attained the object (of Life): For the life of this world is but goods and chattels of deception (al-imran: 185)
We should really strive hard in order to win the highest rank in Paradise
May Allah have mercy on All muslims.

yzach allah 5air for the post
“Death cannot be the enemy, because it is part of existence. Existence has given birth to you. Existence is mothering you. And when you die, you simply go back to your original source, to rest and to be born again. There is no need to be afraid. YOU will not die, you will only disappear like a snowflake in the pure air.Your form will disappear into formlessness, the river will disappear into the ocean, but it will not cease to exist. It will even become wider, vaster, it becomes oceanic.”~OSHO
“They that love beyond the world cannot be seperated by it. Death cannot kill what never dies”
~William Penn
“For what is it to die, But to stand in the sun and melt into the wind?
And when the earth has claimed our limbs, Then we shall truly dance”
~ Kahlil Gibran
assalam alaykum
mashallah nice blog. Subhanallah i go through these feelings too and i feel so worthless.
But you know, you should be grateful that you actually feel this feelings. There are some people who are in such a state of jahilliya that they don’t realise what they do and the last thing they do is think about death. They think that they will live forever. Alhamdulilah that the thought actually crosses our minds and makes us think more about the punishments of the grave and the akhira in order that we may become better muslims.
