Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :[Al-Mu'minun 23:99-100] He did not say, "My Lord, send me back so I may build palaces, marry women, acquire wealth, and ride in luxurious cars." Rather, he said, "My Lord, send me back [Al-Mu'minun 23:100] No return. [Al-Mu'minun 23:100] Indeed, it is a word he is going to say.
And what comes after the resurrection? After the resurrection is a witnessed day, witnessed by all creation, even the insects and even the beasts.[At-Takwir 81:5] Every single one witnesses it. [Al-Buruj 85:1-3] The creation will testify against you regarding what you did: if it was good, then it is good; and if it was evil, then it is evil. This, by Allah, my brothers, is the truth of certainty. Have we worked for it? Most of us, by Allah, are in heedlessness, and most of our time is spent in heedlessness. Even those who are awake do not remain awake constantly; heedlessness always takes hold of them. So we ask Allah the Exalted, by His grace and generosity, to awaken our hearts and your hearts, and to make us among those who seize the opportunities of lifetimes and times, so that we may fill them with the obedience of Allah Mighty and Majestic.
until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back (100) That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind."
حتى إذا جاء أحدهم الموت قال رب ارجعون لعلي أعمل صالحا فيما تركتThat I might do righteousness in that which I left behind
لعلي أعمل صالحا فيما تركتNo!
كلاNo! It is only a word he is saying
كلا إنها كلمة هو قائلهاAnd before them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected
ومن وراءهم برزخ إلى يوم يبعثونAnd what comes after the resurrection? After the resurrection is a witnessed day, witnessed by all creation, even the insects and even the beasts.
