Imaan in the Aakhirah

There is a difference between a person who knows his destination and one who does not know. The person who knows his destination will proceed towards his destination with determination and the one who does not know his destination will exhaust his life without a fixed goal and without progress. Likewise, when a person knows his aim and destination in life, he will adjust his speed according to his journey in life towards his destination. On the other hand, the one who lives in idleness will always say "I’m bored" and finally he spends his precious life without doing anything constructive or positive.

Whoever is conscious that his destination is Aakhirah and that his Maqsud Haqeeqi (real aim) is Allah Ta'ala, then he adjusts his life according to that. In addition, he eliminates everything that he judges it to be an obstacle on his journey. Thus, it is necessary for a person to know what he is and where he has to go.

This Dunya is not a destination. There is another world after this Dunya. Life on this earth does not end the existence of a person. Every person must live another life following this life on earth. People who considered this terrestrial life as their destination have worked solely for it without preparing themselves for life after death. Thus, they failed. And those who have used their life on earth in relation to the life after death will always be winners. Thus, Imaan in Aakhirah is a revolutionary theory that can miraculously change the life and the manner of the most perverse person that can exist. It is this same theory that transforms yesterday's bitter enemies into dedicated, sympathetic and sincere brothers. It is this same theory that transforms the most perverse people of the society into the most pious people. And this theory is a universal theory that will remain valid forever. Without this belief, it is impossible for people to live as humans. It seems that they are another creature despite having human forms.
