Assalaamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuhu.

A Reminder to Myself First {'Subhan Allah'}

*PROPHET* ﷺ ~ said... “If you knew what I know you would laugh a Little & cry a Lot ".
Hasan al-Basri (Rahimaullah)

he would rarely Laugh due to his remembrance of Death and the Punishment of Hell !
One day he was going somewhere when he saw a young man indulging in laughter.

Hasan al-Basri~Rahimaullah) asked the youth...

'Young man....have you already crossed the bridge of 'Siraat'... {?}

Have you already found out whether you are going to Paradise or Hell"{?}

The young man replied... 'No'{!}

Hasan al-Basri (Rahimaullah) then asked him...
'Then why are you Laughing so much' {?}After that no one saw this young man laughing again ,
as he came to know the reality of this life{!}

But he smiled as this is a part of the Sunnah of the Prophet ~(Peace be upon him)

A Little Note :

Many hours or probably days have passed away from
our lives in laughter and jokes, it's a sign that we have forgotten
the life of the Hereafter...!The Sahabah used to do good deeds all day but still
cry during the night to Allah{Azza wa Jall} !

{'Subhan Allah'}

My 'Salaams' to all.

~Y a s m i n. ~
"All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever}
the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"
{'Qur'an'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 }

'Wasting time is Worse than Death!
Because Death Separates you from this World
Whereas wasting Time Separates you from Allah'.
Ibn Qayimm Al-Jawziyyah(r)
**********************************************
I Want to Die With my Forehead on the Ground!
The Sunnah in my Heart, Allah on my Mind,
Qur'an on my Tongue, and Tears in my Eyes!
'In Shaa Allah'!
********************************************
*Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days,
whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone.*
{Al-Hasan Al-Basree (r)}
