Continuation of the explanation of the hadiths of this chapter that were previously read.

The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful:
The author al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his book *Riyad al-Salihin*, in the chapter: "Remembrance of Death and Shortening of Hope": In what he transmitted from Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took him by the shoulder and said: : And the discussion of this has been mentioned previously. He said: "And Ibn 'Umar used to say: When you are in the morning, do not expect the evening, and when you are in the evening, do not expect the morning": The meaning is that you should not hope that if you are in the morning you will reach the evening, and if you are in the evening you will reach the morning. How many people have reached the morning and did not reach the evening, and how many people have reached the evening and did not reach the morning, and how many people have put on their clothes and did not take them off except the washer, and how many people have left their homes when they had prepared their lunch or dinner for them, but they did not eat it, and how many people have slept and did not rise from their beds. The important thing is that a person should not prolong his hope. Rather, he should be a cautious, intelligent, decisive, and capable person. This is the meaning of his saying: "When you are in the morning, do not expect the evening, and when you are in the evening, do not expect the morning. He said: And take from your health for your sickness and from your life for your death": The healthy person has an open chest, a relaxed soul, and a broad mind. He has space and time. But how many people waste this, because they hope that this health will remain and last, and that their life in this world will be long. So you find that he has wasted this health. So Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) says: "Take from your health for your sickness": Sickness constricts the soul, tires the body, and makes the world narrow for him. He is unable to do the work he does in a state of health. So let him take from his health for his sickness, and from his life for his death. Compare your life and your death: which is longer? There is no doubt that life is not comparable to death. How many deaths did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) have? And how many did those before him have? And their lives were few compared to their deaths. So how about the Hereafter? Therefore, a person should take from his life, as long as Allah has kept him alive, for his death when he is unable to work. Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , so take from your life for your death.
