Lesson one hundred twenty eight :Aforgotten reality
Imam Sadegh( A. S. )says:
لَمْ يَخْلُقِ اللّهُ يَقِينا لاشَكَّ فِيهِ أَشْبَهُ بِشَكٍّ لا يَقينَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ!
Translation
God has not created a certainty without any doubt like death, but it seems that it is a doubt in which there is never any certainty..
Brief description
What a strange phrase, and what a clear interpretation of man's unawareness about the end of life and death.
Man may hesitate in anything and do not believe in any religion, but he do not hesitate that anyway the life will end and should be ended.
But he appears so unaware in this concern as if there would not be any death and end for life!
Thus, he does not prepare himself for receiving it with faith, good deed, purity and virtue.
However, let us be realistic and pure in any condition and age so that we would not be regretful and ashamed whenever our life ends.
